    D&D General D&D AI Fail

    To be fair, it is not too far off from journalism we see splattered across the web. Clickbait titles that don’t match the actual story, no verification of facts, and little attempt made to determine the true story are probably more common than true journalism. What would be nice is if AI could...

    Dreams & Machines Is Modiphius' New Age of Roleplaying

    I may have missed out on momentum. Do you recall where that is mentioned in the books? I may need to read up on that. I was concerned once one of my characters got a suit of power armor that he would be basically invincible. The first 2 rounds of the last combat had bullets bouncing off, but...

    Dreams & Machines Is Modiphius' New Age of Roleplaying

    Sorry for the thread necro, but what sort of problems are you experiencing with the combat? I've been running a Fallout 2d20 game locally and although it took some adjustments, my players seem to be enjoying it a lot. I find balance to be hard with it because some combinations are overpowered...

    Black Flag So What's In Kobold Press' BLACK FLAG First Playtest?

    This is how I would normally DM it (at least at the table) and only bring it out for a very specific encounter. I just thought it was funny that once we implemented vision and dynamic lighting for Fantasy Grounds Unity, we started seeing a lot more people running non-human characters that has...

    Black Flag So What's In Kobold Press' BLACK FLAG First Playtest?

    That's because it is hard to implement at the table unless you are using a VTT and a TV map. We were hesitant to implement it on Fantasy Grounds Unity because I wasn't convinced it would be fun to play with it, but I was wrong. When people started using the feature combined with darkvision and...

    D&D 5E D&D Beyond Will Delist Two Books On May 17th

    That's an interesting theory, but I've been told the exact opposite by Wizards of the Coast. Our royalties go right to the bottom line for each of our partners and don't cost them anything. Any of our partners could devote money and resources to replace us if they really wanted to, but it...

    A First Look at 2d20 Fallout from Modiphius

    Sorry for the thread necro, but we just released this in digital for play on Fantasy Grounds Unity. We incorporated automation of combat with hit locations, rolling skills using your SPECIAL, modding weapons, scrapping components and skinning of creatures. As this is fully licensed from...

    Worlds of Design: To Design or Publish?

    Adobe subscriptions are definitely not cheap. All of the big companies use InDesign for layout and Photoshop for graphic editing, so that is something you would need to learn and subscribe to in order to produce professional looking content that you can send to a printer or post as a PDF for...

    D&D 5E How Will D&D Beyond Implement Monsters of the Multiverse?

    That is correct. You could also just open just the books you wanted active.

    D&D 5E How Will D&D Beyond Implement Monsters of the Multiverse?

    Customers who want the newer versions of the monsters, newer images, newer tokens, races, etc., will need to purchase the new module for Mordenkainen Presents Monsters of the Multiverse. If a customer owns both the new module and the old modules, then they will see multiple listings for search...

    D&D General Solasta: Crown of the Magister Offers A Hidden Fifth Edition Computer Gem

    I really enjoy the game and I would love to see more by the same developers. I haven’t had many serious bugs other than a funny one where my dwarf PC’s beard hung about 2 inches off his face and my female human rogue had a guy’s voice. I found it more amusing than annoying. I did eventually...

    TSR Did TSR Sue Regularly?

    Exactly. Many CEOs and other C-level executives of bigger companies sign a contract granting them a golden parachute specifically for this reason. It allows them to take risky, unpopular changes with the company for the sole sake of the shareholders without any personal financial risk. They can...
