    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway? Part 4: Novels

    That is a crap-ton of books. I knew it was a lot, but it is A LOT!!! — For anyone curious about the 1980s AD&D game books, I will shamelessly pimp my two threads and perhaps get the impetus to finish the trilogy...

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway? Part 3: Magazines

    Clearly we need a follow up series: how much OGL stuff is there anyway?

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway? Part 3: Magazines

    “First half ogre. Second half. Also ogre.” OK, that has nothing to do with anything, but it makes me laugh. — Would our hypothetical collector want the Paizo Pathfinder magazines, back when they were D&D and not, umm, Pathfinder? Or those don’t count because not WotC published?

    Which "Tactical" TTRPG Would Work Best As An X-Com Like?

    Honestly? 4eD&D. Both XCOM EU/EW and XCOM2 combat feel very much like 4e combat. You could map many of the XCOM abilities directly to encounter or daily powers.

    D&D General Eberron - why don't you run it? [-]

    Tries to do too much at once and does all of it mediocre-ly.

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway? Part 1: Editions

    Thanks. I am a die hard 4e guy but even I think those cards were a dumb product 😁

    Spoilers Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

    There are some really good Ferengi episodes in DS9’s run. Definitely they got rehabilitated from their dreadful TNG introduction.

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway? Part 1: Editions

    How would the 4e data change if you excluded the packs of cards entirely?

    D&D 4E Rambling thoughts about D&D 4th Edition

    According to my searches there is a plain old Dog in Dragon 399, hunting dog in Dungeon 220, deathdog in Open Grave.

    Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks Coming to America via Steve Jackson Games

    I always thought it was a tall skinny giant. But in the 1980s it’s well known that all creatives were high on coke at all times, so…. (Joking)

    Dragon Reflections #97

    “Catacomb” (the short story) was incredibly prescient. It may not be the best written story, but it absolutely nailed the MUD (and later MMO) feel years before such things existed. I still have the torn out pages of that around here somewhere. Yeah, blasphemy I know. What can I say. In those...
