I've been watching Inuyasha recently with my Wife and in nearly every episode I shout at the TV screen saying 'why doesn't so and so do this' or 'just make a saving throw that' as almost anytime I watch media the thoughts of how a gaming party would approach a problem depicted always comes to...

It is oft said on the internets rpg'o'sphere that GURPS is better for running campaigns/settings that are closer to 'human/normals' power scales and that GURPS tends to break down at higher 'superhero/cosmic' power scales. And it is oft said that the HERO System is better for running at higher...

Over the past few years or so I know I came across a fairly popular website that allows you to create your own campaign setting and create an interactive map and wiki for said campaign setting, also store character sheets and info as well as maps and so on so on so forth. But for the life of me...

Now that the Pathfinder 2nd Edition 'Revised' pdf is available (well to Paizo subscribers at least / It will be out for everyone on Nov 15th 2023) what do those of you who have it, think of it so far. Do you like the changes made? The additions and subtractions, the clarifications? Is it worth...

I'm a bit of a setting book junkie, so I'm curious as to what the fellow Pub'rs thoughts are on the Troll Lord Games latest version (the 'After Winters Dark' ver. ala 2023) of their campaign setting book 'Codex of Aihrde' How is this new book compared to previous versions of the Aihrde world...

I've recently dipped my toe into the Pathfinder 2nd Edition pond and am quite taken with it's mechanical elegance and balance, but the art and presentation are not to my liking to say the least. So that got me wondering, if there is a downloadable SRD pdf for the PF2E ruleset, but so far my...

Came across this vid on youtube while looking for Art books by the classic D&D Artists. It's a news report which also includes a story segment with LARP's showing what an adventure is like in their imagination. Very Retro and Cringe yet Cool all at the same time. The link starts at the...

One of my favorite genre's to read is Military Science Fiction and I've read allot of it, but I'm always on the look out for new series and authors. I've read most of the old stuff (pre 1990's) but am almost done my current book ( The Lost Fleet: Outlands - Implacable by Jack Campbell ) and am...

The long delayed Kickstarter project 'The Hobby Shop Dungeon' also known as 'The Marmoreal Tomb' by Ernest Gary Gygax Jr & Benoist Poire is finnally availiable in PDF and Dead Tree form for the Kickstarter backers. (special thanks to Troll Lord Games for stepping in and saving the kickstarter!)...

I was watching a youtube video today and at the end the YT'br said that Greg Gillespie is working on his own OSR RPG. Some quick googling didn't turn up any info. Have any Pub'rs heard anything about this? .

I've decided to finally take the plunge and check out RQ/D100 RPG's via the entry point of 'Mythras'. I've been aware of RuneQuest ever since the early 80's via seeing it in adds in Dragon Magazine back in the day, but I don't recall ever seeing it 'in the wild' and don't remember any of my...

The recent kickstarter for the new RPG 'Heroes & Hardships' has just released it's 'early access?' (I put a ? as my copy says early access on the download link, but it also says ver. 1.1 on the downloaded file, and the DriveThruRPG site has the full version of the rules up showing an upload date...

I've been in search of the holy grail of perfect D&D game engine ever since I cracked open the Moldvey Pink Box Basic D&D set back in 1981. I've played every version of D&D since and enjoyed things about them but there is always one nagging aspect that keeps me from paying any of the for long...

I just discovered that Fateforge is a thing yesterday and downloaded the pay what you want versions of the PDF's from drivethrpg but have barely gone through them yet. Blurb from the fateforge.org/en website Fateforge is a self-contained RPG powered by an augmented 5E ruleset. Following the...

I swear there was a Sherlock Holmes RPG back in he 80’s no? I have faint memories of a Holmes and Watson illustration on a cepiatone book cover. Baker St. on the cover text somewhere… I may be mis-remembering. Cthulhu by Gaslight book or some Timelords time travel supplement. So am I crazy or...

I seem to recall once upon an internet time I found a pdf of a fan version of the old Babylon 5 Starship Combat game called 'A Call to Arms'. But now, for the life of me I can't find said pdf. So my question is for any other B5 Starship Combat fans out there, am I right, is there somewhere...

Just watched the new Netflix 'Day Shift', a fun Action/Buddy-Cop/Comedy/Horror flick about Monster Hunters living in Los Angeles. Specifically Vampire Hunters (they don't mention any other kind of monsters). It was similar in my mind at least to the Monster Hunter International books (granted...

I was considering buying some old games by FGU: Fantasy Games Unlimited like ’Aftermath‘ and ‘Bushido’ and on a whim I decided to google FGU and was surprised to see they are still in business. And better yet -retry much all their products are still available for purchase...

I’m curious to hear of what other services, if any, the denizens of the RPGPUB have used to print out pdfs of RPG books for their own personal use besides Lulu? I know there are a few services such as Amazon’s (used to be create space I think) but that’s for selling retail. I’m looking for a...
