Too fun not to share! Questing Beast quizzes Mike Mearls, Seth Skorkowsky, and Kelsey Dionne on their D&D edition knowledge. I had a blast playing along (even though I wasn't scoring nearly as well, haha).

So excited! I loved the first game and have been dying to continue Henry's storyline. Read this one is suppose to be twice as big too! Curious to other's thoughts and feelings about the first game and who else is excited about this announcement!

I just picked up RPGPundit's latest RPG, Baptism of Fire, because the quasi-historic Polish setting sounded cool, but was surprised and impressed with the use of AI/public domain art throughout. I was pretty "meh" on AI before, but seeing a 300+ page RPG jammed pack with colorful, faux-painted...

My last thread about Dr. Greg Gillespie's RPG Dragonslayer was quite the dumpster fire, so hoping this time around things could be a bit more civil. I was certainly disappointed the conversation got shutdown so quickly, but with so little information about the game at the time and how angry the...

I don't really buy 5E products anymore, but the setting material and artwork for this campaign set in Dante's Inferno was too good to pass on. So far, I've read through the "Player's Handbook" portion, and really like what they've done. Characters are made exactly like they are in Core, but...

Just picked this game up from a small bookstore while I was on travel. I loved the art and retro-gaming vibe. Was kind of bummed there wasn't much talk about it online so thought I'd post about it here. Here's the elevator pitch: Unboxing by the designer: Going to devour it this weekend...

Dungeon Synth has been my "go to" background music for writing/running adventures for awhile now. A quick search revealed mentions of the genre, but no dedicated thread, so decided to make one! Post your favorites or any great albums you happen to come across here! I'll start:

I don't know if I like the change made to Death and Dying... seems a bit much? Curious how others feel about it. For those unaware, the old dying rules: If you drop to zero or below, you are Dying 1 + Wounded value. Make a Recovery Check every round. Success reduces Dying by 1; failure...

Adventure Conqueror King System 2 is on Kickstarter! I'm constantly mining ideas from the first edition, so thinking about going in at $200 for all three hardbacks. They really do look beautiful... Anyone else going to back it?

Surprised there hasn't been a thread discussing Greg's RPG Dragon Slayer that just dropped on Kickstarter. Looks to be his houseruled version of B/X "Advanced" (similar to Labrinth Lord) with some great "old-school" art work. Curious if anyone here has backed it? Oh, have to share the cover art:

I ran across this free, 500+ page "Conan like" game from Modiphius and had to share. It looks like a solid game with great artwork. Reminded me of WoD since it uses a d10 dice pool for resolutions. If the premise seems interesting and you have some time, give it a look and let me know what you...

From Kwhan's Blog: This seemed like an odd decision to me. Between players who have no interest in older editions and players who just want play the game as they remembered it, I'm not sure who the market for this would be? Anyone here excited about this news?

Over the years I have tried just about every method under the sun for running large dungeon crawls: VTT, large printed 1" grid maps, dungeon tiles, players mapping on graph paper, completely theatre of the mind, etc. I think I've discovered I'm happiest a large stack of dry-erase tiles with...

Questing beast just reviewed Shadow Dark and I couldn't click on the Kickstarter fast enough. How cool is this cover art? I also enjoyed the video the author, Kelsey Dionne, put out on how this project came about. Couldn't help but share. :)

Had a fun thought the other day while watching PBS Spacetime on YouTube... What if there were fantasy physicists in our RPGs that were making breakthroughs on discovering the "rules" that govern them? Would be a fun idea for an NPC I think. Like an eccentric D&D Gnome that realizes probability...

@Morrus I've been absolutely blown away by Level Up. I don't think I've ever read a 3rd party product that has understood the base game better than the company who wrote it since Pathfinder 1E. I've always been impressed with 5E's accessibility and universal appeal, but always knew there was...

This is something I've found about myself recently that I thought was kind of humorous. I've ran multiple successful campaigns through every edition of D&D over the years and never once realized how bad my imagination was until I started to play more narrative focused games like FATE and PbtA...
