Another April Fool's Day is here. It's time for Grumpy to stir The Tavern's Scrying Pool for some predictions for the rest of 2014.
1 - Fans of D&D Next are going to be surprised to find the 3x SRD between the covers of their newest and latest Dungeons & Dragons. What's old is new again.
2 - Monte Cook is going to publish the "Numasutra". Enough said.
3 - Paizo's Pathfinder will reboot it's core rulebook - 550 pages for $5.50 in bulletproof hardcover.
4 - Disney World will be the next Apocalypse World game. Personally, I want to play Donald.
5 - RPGNow and DriveThruRPG will become two separate companies once again, just so today's announcement can actually come to pass.
6 - The next OSR Clone with be Swords & Lords, a mish mash of the worst of S&W and LL.
7 - Lee's List will publish 100 Lists of Lists of 100.
8 - DCC RPG in Spaaaaaccccceeeee!
9 - Mike Nystul will rise like a phoenix. Mike's Crab Shack and Mini Con will have a fundraiser on Indiegogo. Funds raised will buy Mike a new Winnebago.
10 - Dwimmermount will release. No one will notice. Rats will cry and copper will melt.
11 - Tunnels & Trolls Deluxe will face yet another rewrite. Ken will borrow from Apocalypse World to create Troll World. At least it will still use D6's.
12 - The Tavern will embrace the latest and newest edition of D&D. It will be kept in the privy and read one page at a time. Previously read pages will not be available...

ReplyDeleteMy favorite.
I want #8!
ReplyDelete#11 is why I don't play T&T. I can't even keep track of the versions, nevermind play any of them. That one system probably has more variations than anything except D&D . . .

ReplyDeleteGimme gimme!
Hire +Kevin Crawford to do it. DCC+SWN sounds like the game nobody even knew they wanted but needs desperately.
