accepting the existence of magic in a fantasy setting should not be easier than accepting the existence of disabled people in a fantasy setting๐ช

Break the Internet time! Please REPOST this challenge for all adventure designers to see. Rob Kuntz is officially challenging another adventure designer, anyone, to out design me. My entry vs. yours! Terms and conditions to be determined. Can you beat this old designer?

Replying to @rangleme
D&D will die. Either way. If it moves into digital the P&P will fade away; if it loses might be more interesting as Hasbro might dump the IP as unworthy. They are betting big on VTT. There's a big gap that's going to be created here that I have been hinting at for some time.

Seeing as we're talking a lot about proper attribution this week, I want to send high praise to this video.
If I got paid every time someone steals images or footage from our social media sites or the movie itself, I would be sitting in the shade of an umbrella on a beach, while sipping fine wines and nibbling on exotic cheeses and meats, in Italy.
(Sadly I never get invited to Lucca Comics and Games.)
All we ask for is a citation.
Most of our images are already tagged so you can use them as is. I see people photo shopping my tags off of documents and photos all the time. We will sometimes submit Internet Take Down Requests too. But it's hard to keep up with and we have games to make.
This is a class act - they put a citation on the screen with all our material - thank you so much!

In a few words, tell me about your homebrew campaign setting and its main influences.
Letโs see how much inspiration we can get going, here!

Is The Age of the Wolf an actual work by Dave Arneson or even a Blackmoor setting?
The Arneson Estate believes it to be a fake.
For some time efforts have been made to work with Studio Ink Bat in order to determine if the game book is a work by Arneson, or something the Estate would be willing to grant license to.

A lot of old gamers have always said WOTC D&D is not D&D.
Not surprised to see an old guard designer/gamer say this:
"They are jealous imitators, whose personal perception of their lack ability is underscored by the fact they felt the need to trade under a historic brand name they did not create, and that in fact has no legitimate creative
connection with the alternate game systems they chose to design,"
IMHO 5e attempted to go back to a simpler and more traditional system, except it was video-gamed.
Interesting letter, I wonder who wrote it.

Godzilla has always been anthropomorphized because itโs a guy in a rubber suit until recently. But even though itโs no longer a guy in a suit, heโs still clocking other kaiju in the jaw with his fist. Should Godzilla be able to punch and kick, or act more like an animal?
82%Godzilla can punch
18%Godzilla shouldn't punch

Support Emperor's Choice
If you want to expand your Old School Campaign here is something worth checking out.
I am very biased in favor of Arduin Grimoire. It appeared out of nowhere in 1977 and someone in my game group always seemed to have a copy of at least one book floating around.
The guys at Emperors Choice have been working for over two decades to preserve and promote the works of David Hargrave so they wouldn't end up in the trash heap like so many other original drafts of classic games.
Arduin is a fascinating world setting as the main setting has gates linking it to other realms and even dimensions. Thus it is open to characters of any kind in a game session.
Some feel that D&D stole the Artificer class from Arduin and a whole lot more.
It is also fully OD&D compliant as a variant, and thus easily adapted to anything else.
Even if you can't get the maps from the new KickStarter, throw them five bucks so they can keep up the wonderful job of archiving and preserving this master work world setting.
Yup, that's Gary Gygax holding up the map.

I'm looking for recommendations for books on the history of Venice between 1200ish and 1400ish
Any ideas?

It takes a special kind of absurd bias to judge the past based on today's standards. Here is an article about @threelinestudio (Rob Kuntz) reaction to @Wizards_DnD's revisionist "history" book...
