Random campaign idea of the day: US and USSR agents at the height of the Cold War join forces against an extinction-level threat.

I kinda want to keep up with the cool gee plus people but fuckin’ MeWe???
Though the Realms are neither S&S fish nor epic high fantasy fowl, there’s a certain charm to whatever it is they are. Like a platypus.
Mmm, sherry...
On choosing the right ruleset for any setting, fidelity to the workings of the fiction will take a backseat to convenience and familiarity.
My dream PC game is an online multiplayer persistent world sandbox Diablo clone with a strongly D&Desque aesthetic.
It's good to be home again.
Downloaded a really good D&D5 character sheet app on my phone and tablet. Totally addicted, rolled 20+ characters already. Send help
If I were to hypothetically run a Hangout game for the Pub crowd. What would you like me to run? What PC would you play? Answer in comments
And once more, D&D5 carries the day by (1) being D&D, (2) not being terribly complicated and (3) allowing you to play a variety of fun PCs.
You know, Google Hangout gaming's not bad.
Wish me luck, everyone.
Maybe I could mash up PbtA and Cypher for the most hated elfgame ever. And then set it in the post-TLJ Star Wars Universe.
Any one of us may be fighting secret battles others know nothing about. But some people are just assholes, really.
Man, I just miss getting some actual face-to-face gaming done.
RIP Anthony Bourdain, you magnificent bastard.
Too tired to cook, ordering takeout. What should I have for dinner? (For argument's sake assume infinite options)
Things are getting really really weird down here in Brazil. And not in a fun way.
In 3 months I'm running one Hangout game and two (distinct) face-to-face groups. I'll also join grad school, eat right and exercise. Yup.
Stray campaign idea of the day: Anomalous Subsurface Environment with ACKS Barbarian Conquerors of Kanahu.
Listening to The Sword’s Ebethron and thinking of running Hellfrost — with ACKS.
Being sick, working my ass off and playing through Borderlands: the Pre-Sequel for the nth time, that's what I've been up to.
Staying away from gaming is less of a bother when you love the things that are eating up your waking time.
What to do with Savage Rifts? (Certainly not using the Tomorrow Legion set-up)
The Sword, The Crown & The Unspeakable Power sure looks like a ton of fun. Love the sorcerous Adept and Beloved playbooks in particular.
So much good Rifts art to pick an avatar from. I went with this one, even though I never played a New West game, because it’s so evocative.
Fact: D&D5 is right up there with Cypher when it comes to "fun character creation." No idea whether I'll ever get to run either
Looking at D&D5 yet again and thinking about Battle Master Fighter builds. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME
Happy Birthday, Butcher. Have an awesome day.
Right now I want to run Operation Unfathomable with WB OD&D, and play an Eclipse Phase game as a cigar-chomping gun-toting gorilla uplift.
RPG books I want in hard copy: D&D5 core, TftYP and XGtE; SW Rifts core and WW: Rome; Mythras, MB: Saxons and Mythic Rome: VtR2 and MtAw2
Next thread on the main forum: “Top 5 lists of Top 5 RPGs of the Top 5 genres that never made it into your Top 100”
Happy 112th birthday to the gentleman from Cross Plains, Texas. Great writer, great gaming inspiration.
Holy crap, White Star is crazy good. How did I miss out on this?
I have promised to run 3 different games for 3 dfferent groups. And I can't even read a gaming book these days. Fuck me, I suck.
Happy New Year, Pub-goers!
The Design Mechanism is having a Boxing Day sale OMG OMG OMG
If this night or the day after finds you alone, don't give in to bad thoughts. Drop me a PM. Merry Christmas, you magnificent bastards.
Choosing between D&D (ACKS) and Runequest (Mythras) is like having to choose between bourbon or scotch.
Which series should I get into? Gentlemen Bastards or Prince of Nothing? Hyperion Cantos or Zones of Thought? (Feel free to suggest others) -
