Thoughts on Kickstarter from the smallest of fish..

Why you no Kickstart? Kickstarter and why I'm not going that route, the small fish view: More than one person as told me, “Hey you should kickstart your game, that would make producing it that much easier!” I paraphrase liberally, but that's the gist. I love kick starter. I think it is a great idea for groups and start ups who are looking for a boost. The whole Idea of “crowd-sourcing “ has revolutionized the gaming hobby and provided start up funds that have allowed companies to explore original ideas that may not have fit perfectly into other more traditional business plans. Bravo. With all that said KickStarter is also not built for the really little guy.  "Hold on!" you say, "The little guy is the whole point of crowdsourcing!" I hear ya...and.. I know there have been some success stories in the past. Here are some of the biggest ones, naturally they have big names attached to them. http://www.cnbc.com/id/48725154 I bet if I looked around enough there ...

D20 Modern: Lets take a long look at one fork in the WOTC design road map.

A deep-ish look into the Core rule book for D20 Modern As a reminder. As with my other "Deep Dives" these are not reviews, more like me looking closely at books I think hold interesting spots in the history of RPG's. The reader can go into this knowing I like and have used / played the books I'm looking into, even if I note some faults. Please don't read these as reviews. Also, I'm not an expert, much of this is my own view, conjecture, and opinion. If I get something horridly wrong, please reach out and correct me. I'll change it. Premise: D20 Modern stands in my mind a singular and extremely interesting product of the TSR/WotC lineage. A bit of perspective: In 1997 WotC bought TSR they inherited piles of novels, some untenable publishing models and Advanced Dungeons and Dragons 2nd edition which had been revised back in 1995. Also, in 1995 four of my all-time favorites and I think most interesting books the "Players Option: books were released. I h...

I wish I could play in a campaign of (....)

Friday the RPG discussion day of the week. Are there any games that you have wanted to play a campaign in but have never had the chance? There are so many games out there! The pool   of games to select from is broad and deep, with the RPG industry 30 plus years old (depending on what yard stick you wield.) Add to that long history the current small press renaissance that we are in the middle of it seems there are more great games popping out every time a guy turns around. Each of us must have at least a few games that make us say, “Damn! I wish I could get a game of that rolling.” I put the question to the group I game with and one of the guys gave back, “GURPS discworld.” Unsurprisingly I have never read any of the Discworld books. And with all respect to Mr. Pratchett, I don’t plan on starting in on it right away, simply because all told I think there are like 40+ novels to chew through.   As an RPG however the discworld RPG powered by GURPS light and written as a standalone...
