Alt-white wolf?

I don't follow White Wolf much these days, what with not being focused on chasing goth chicks, but seems some controversy has cropped up from how various topics are being presented and/or hinted at in the new revision: http://www.dogwithdice.com/whitewolfaredead/ And as there's nothing the Den loves...

My current model for keeping space combat in the pre-ICBM mold is just to say that ECM has advanced faster than ECCM, and so everybody has to fight at embarrassingly close range. Bombing a planet means parking a fleet in orbit, because long range missiles are just going to go off course to a humili...

Make the PC buy any equipment with power points, a la Hero System. Then if you're investing everything in a powerful weapon, you're making trade-offs elsewhere. Which pretty well works as a game mechanics force until the end of the first conflict when the opposition is looted. Doesn't even vaguely ...

Re: Too much emphasis on mechanics, not enough on WSOD.

But then again, there are a lot of people out there who are genuinely offended when you tell them why a rainbow sparkles or how a magnet works. And a lot of these people have money. So I think that some effort should be spent on massaging peoples' WSOD. It could end up being very profitable. Unless...

Pricing for Tome based magic items

So I've read through the Tome compilations and a handful of the threads here and I'm still a little baffled on how one balances magic items. I get that PCs have a limit of 8 items, and typically once they hit 9th level or so will have infinite "mundane wealth" and low-powered items. That s...
