Anyone interested in a Field of Glory II: Medieval PBEM game, let me know.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
-J. R. R. Tolkien

"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

"Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did."

Oooooooh that's a great selection.

Reminds me how baffling it is that during the current (fading?) peak of DnD popularity we have so little to show for it, gaming-wise. There's BG3 at least, I guess.

EDIT: I think Heroes of the Lance might be the first computer RPG I ever played.

There's a Solasta sequel coming which is based on that ruleset.  A little more niche though.

So these are modern d&d games built to look and play like 90s games?

Solasta is a purely modern game, based on the 5th edition rule set, no connection to the silver or gold box games other than the broad connection to the D+D franchise.

Solasta was fun.  Graphics look like a game from 2006, but it wasn't bad.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
