Worrying about wear and tear is valid. But remember how piss poor some original bindings were. In comparison drive thru are solid...not quite up there with recent Chaosium or LotFP or Free League etc, but good enough.

It's on my interest list due to the podcast its based upon, although I'm unsure if it offers anything new that I don't get from Call of Cthulhu (Yeah I know, but I'm trying to cut down on getting too many more systems, until I play more of the ones I have). Have you seen Holler for Savage Worlds, for what might be described as the Deadlands take on Appalachian horror?

Nice to see you back 🙂

Nice to hear from ya. You gotta try Flesh and Blood. Best TCG out there. I played mtg since the early/mid nighties and FaB is so much better.

looking forward to a ph 5.24 video. everything i've seen so far seems like a bit of a throwback in the direction of 3.5. gotta be honest, when it was all said and done, third edition was better than 3.5. however, my prediction is 5.24 is gonna be better than 5th edition.

Welcome back!

Hey, I found the reply - Glad you grabbed Weird frontiers. I'm very tempted to give it a try, as I have the PDF, see just how much the setting differs from Deadlands. The piratical CoC looks like a thing for me too.

Good to see you back :)

Monolith didnt do the board game. Mythic did. Monolith bought it from mythic.

I really like the side bar of "This is what section we are on and what in it", looks like it should be the Gold Standard for all techinal books.

Ill try it right away! thanks. There is a upgrade i would recommend. The first thing is that i would encourage players to use emojis as "-" used as pins. so instead of - shield spell it is: 🛡shield spell The idea is that it is a lot easier to at find the feature or spell that you are looking for looking at the colorful emojis, symbols, text art than going through a never ending list of words. The only PDF reader i have found to support emojis is the Firefox reader, it is important to mention, IT DOES NOT AUTO SAVE. so constantly save it manually, or you will risk loosing progress. but i find Firefox well worth it, character sheets look way better with color given by emojis. I find it the superior reader, one can draw and put comments in it and anything else needed. A change to the PDF: The new dnd beyond character sheets have all the spells in one large pillar with a box to say what level they are on. I find this really helps out, because one can organize them by more relevant features than level. like utility, defence, attack, support... i would put all the cantrips at the top, because you want to encourage their unlimited use. but for the other spells its better to have them organized by other values. Thanks for the vid :) edit: also separating phrases as much as possible in short paragraphs also helps a lot. now that i have downloaded the PDF im seeing a deal breaker. there are no PDF text boxes. Being able to digitally edit it for those that want/have to play online is a must.

Wait. A starter box with no quick start or rules lite book?

I have been buying from them for around 9 months, very happy with the quality, compared to the original paper that was used in AD&D!

I had a chuckle over the fact that your tokens immediately fell off the backing card - just like they did in my set!

This was a day one pick up for me. Extra stuff to plug in to Wrath & Glory? SOLD! Then I started reading it. There's a ton of really good stuff in it, but the sheer frequency of typos and formatting errors across the book is staggering.

They did a pretty good job, modernizing the initial SW D6 1e system.

i used to enjoy painting minis, now i cant see well enough to correct any minor flubs. it's disheartening to enlarge photos of any recent attempts and see how they actually turned out so now i dont really bother painting them. minis always look good when they are just cgi prototypes. never trust a prototype. bill swesrewshgrfdjhgfgfawitz is a badass artist, but those prices! jesus chroist! not even if i find the winning lottery ticket in the woods would i waste this kind of money on a non paranoia! product from west end games.

I can't find this on Kickstarter?

I would love to see your take on Imperium Maledictum, more Wrath and Glory, as well as the rest of your WHFR books. I'm enjoying the long form videos. There's not a lot of content for WH RPG's on UA-cam. Thank you.

I've got the earlier SW Solomon Kane in pdf, so I'm very interested in this - Totally agree with the comparison, I usually point potential WFRP players toward the Solomon Kane movie as a general idea. The Secret World is very much on my list, I paid for the PC game when it dropped, then paid for it again (for strange reasons) a couple of years later, only for it to drop as free to play some time later - I think of it as almost a Call of Cthulhu/ Feng Shui crossover RPG. It'll be very interesting to see if any of these have a presence at the Expo.

i was unable to spend much time online yesterday. we do dnd every other saturday currently. it was the first time we had played in a couple months. the dm works for a company that works with a company that deals with tax returns and between his overloaded work shed-yule and other player's lack of dedication we just kept having cancelation after cancelation. found out today that the sorcerer and the ranger aint coming back. turns out the sorcerer has been whining to my wife at work for some time over a enemy we encountered with fire immunity. being a sorcerer he does 2 things, fly and fireball, and whatever fire cantrip he had i dont remember. took fire immunity on a monster as a personal attack from a dm he just met. it's no loss, until yesterday i thought the ranger wa a druid and the sorcerer was a ranger. they were THAT effective at what they were supposed to be doing. we walked into a valley of bandits in the dark of night on a very important mission to my religious order. we start to set up camp when the ranger starts screaming needlessly and the sorcerer sent up a flare... to... be... funny? we pull the misson off anyway thanks to some quick thinking. butt, dang, we was told at least one of them knew their stuff. so when she aint "feel like it" they skipped out again. after mentioning how eager they were to play. whatever. i'm glad to find out they were not party member material sooner than later. the dm is a pro, tho. so instead of our planned kraken egg hunt, we had to improvise. we have been harassing pirates in a tropical setting. we have collected many bounties and have four confiscated ships in the wife's fleet. but while away from our secret island hq we recieved a letter from our enemy, the pirate queen. an ominous warning that she had taken back what we had taken from her. an arrogant boast, as we found out, she had sent a warship to our island not realizing we have a helm of teleportation on the commodore. we got back to the base just in time to see an unnatural cloud headed our way from the south. sounding the alarm we scrambled to get the ships onto the waters and sent one east, one north, and one west. we stayed behind in the biggest ship we have. (200 hp and 1 balilsta.) the war ship approaching has twenty cannons on each side, 500 hp and a fricking space battleship yamoto wave force cannon with three barrels with different effects on each barrel. three weresharks dove in the water as they approached, headed for the island to ambush the people who were no longer there. the wife (a triton barbarian, was in the water ws a hull cracker, but i called her up and had the crew spring into action. their first shot with the mega cannon missed our ship and they started swinging to port. charging straight ahead, we dropped anchor swung to port around the cape, cut the anchor, ( not so much that we cut it as it just got blasted off by their second shot. first blood = 43 hp) the dm knew i most likely wood knot run, but even after all these years he still cant predict what i will do in any given situation. we finished rounding the cape and as we passed the beach where the weresharks were at, the comodore dove off the ship, followd by myself and the rogue after a quick waterwalking spell. being more manueveable our ship escaped to protect it's crew. we engaged the weresharks while trying to avoid blasts from the cannon and pot shots from the storm cleric fanatic on the bow. the warship got close enough to get stuck on a sand bar and the cleric and the pirate crew stared to disembark. the pirate crew of fifty men. the dm was expecting us to distract the warship while the wife split the hull and sink it from below. of course at this point he's used to the unexpected happening when i'm around. long story short... we pulled through with some nigh miraculous rolls. 2 of the 3 of us had to make death saves, but after what was about two minutes that felt like four actual hours, we gots us a new boat!!! and i only had to remove curse on two of us! plus ther'es a hell of a mess on the beach, so the crabs will be happy. turns out i got a ring of fire elemental control they aint know about. charred bodies EVERYWHERE. the party ended up surrounded by difficult terrain from the blood and piling bodies. good times, good times. now we gotta deal with the fact that she knows our location now... and she has at least 9 more warships of that same class... plus the backing of an orc nation that is in league with the drow that also happens to be winning an invasive war against my own people back home. we still need to deal with the egg hunt, but i've already brainstorming an idea that may just turn the tide of the war and alter the course of history on this world... again.

Why hadn't we thought about foldable character sheets before? They Look amazing and probably give you much more space to keep notes, character bio, inventory etc without having to flip through pages.

I am so conflicted about this one. Solomon Kane is my absolute favorite REH creation. I have the original SW Solomon Kane line in PDF. I'd like to back this in hardcover, but I have the feeling I'd only ever get to play this online. So do I back physical, knowing that it'd likely only add to my dust-gatherer collection? Or do I stick with PDF, and feel sorry I didn't get the bug but relieved about the money and shelf space it saves? Decisions, decisions.

This is awesome! So glad to grab these Cypher books!

Predation seems the ideal setting to run something along the lines of 2000 AD's *Flesh!* or Fox's *Terra Nova* in.

Is it just me or going through rule books is half the fun of pen&paper RPGs?

Monte Cook Games will at UK Games Expo. The publisher's books are more widely available in the UK too it is has a more active disribution.

Planebreaker, the Weird and Rust & Redemption. If I had only waited about 30 days... Still worth it for some of the other titles.

This is brilliant!!!!!! ❤

I can confirm the white books are 'setting' books. There are several settings included as well.

With books that are reprints you will get the discoloured edge due to the paper colour change. Books that are direct to PoD will not, just thought I would mention that.

I got the pdf myself. When it dropped, I think the postage was about £30ish on top of the book. If you or anyone you know is at the UK games expo (NEC) at the end of the month, you might strike gold there. I found the pdf a lot to take in, much preferring Deadlands and CoC Down darker trails

Can't stay because I am actually playing The Enemy Within for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, Fourth Edition!

if y'all could only take one thing away from this game system as y'all's favorite, or the "best" aspect of this game system, what would that be? i apologize if this question gets redundant. it's definately got nothing to do with refining my homebrew system...

Alongside Traveller my favourite all time game system. The add on books with the white covers allow you to pick and choose to create your own subgenre settings.

Still way better art than the DnD books, I think

Just started building this with my family for game night. Impressed so far. I didn’t realize there was an adventure that came with it though- very cool!

Lol there are so many versions of Traveller, I unfortunately picked up a full set of T5. I recently went back and bought a set of the core GDW first edition books.

There are so many, I can't imagine getting it down to ten. On the other hand, I can point to some broad systems where almost any genre in the system is going to be on my list ; 1) Cypher System (Including Numenera) by Monte Cook games, 2) Year Zero Engine by Free League Publishing, 3) 2D20 system by Modiphius., 4) Universal Game Engine by Chaosium. I've found I like almost anything in these 4 systems. Some of my favorite settings are; 1) Old Gods of Appalachia, 2) Vaesen, 3) Numenera, 4) Blade Runner, 5) Alien, 6) Dune, 7) Star Trek Adventures, 8) Call of Cthulhu, 9) Defiant, 10) Coyote and Crow.

One of the really useful things about the MCG format is the notes in the margins that reference where to find related stuff. As you get deeper into the material it even references other books!

I got hooked into Cypher System when Old Gods of Appalachia came out and now gm several games a month

So true

Great sound

Nice top 10 Several of those would be on my top 10 as well.

Thank you for the mention and the link to the review.

Cool bennies

Thanks for the review

Pathfinder is so good about supporting GMs. I noticed the players guide for 5e has only 2 pages of how to play while pf2e has 80 lol😅

Cool!
