MageGate TTRPG Update: Combat

Spent today revising and expanding the combat and healing chapters to make sure the rules are easy to understand (and to close any pesky rules lawyering loopholes). 😛

The video we never wanted to make! 😥😬😱🤬

We share our thoughts on what the new OGL 1.1 (2.0) means for us, our fellow content creators, and the community.

New YouTube video coming out tonight! We share our thoughts on the OGL situation and what it means for us and the industry as a whole.

We hope you'll join us for this heartfelt message! :)

Don't worry, our video won't be an angry rant or freak out, LOL. Though there have been moments where we've certainly felt like giving into the negativity, we knew that wouldn't be productive. Instead, we've chosen keep the video as humorous, positive, and forward-thinking as possible.

Because that's who we are.

My only regret is I wasn't able to appear in the video, as getting the new Game Master's Guide to Traps & Terrors book out ahead of the OGL 1.1 took up all my time. Lotta back to back all day and night marathons there! I'm still recovering. :P

But Baba knocked it out of the park in this video, and he speaks for me as well. We don't know what shape the future holds, but we know it holds great things--and that means more awesome creativity from us, and for you.

Thrilled Splinterverse reviewed our new Extreme Encounters" Weather & Terrain: Unearthly Omnibus today on YouTube:

"I really like this series because it gives you the options to do really cool lairs [and extra-] planar experiences. It gives you the option to make even the [Prime] Material plane a little more fantastical, based on maybe you just a small area with a few of these effects going on, and so many of the effects shown in here you can just pull out one piece because they give you so many different ways to make an area have that feeling of being very necrotic or very radiant [etc.].

"And so if you want to take even one of these effects and put it on an NPC, or put it on a prisaon cell, or some magical spot like around a chest that they have to open then you have that option because this book is filled with so many different ways to transform an area."
