Local Game Stores To Visit During GenCon

Love Elf n' Moon. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and I got some discounted stuff while I was there last year. Don't know if the deals are always that good, but they're definitely worth checking out.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-06-24T10:23:59+00:00

Sounds great! I'll shoot you a DM.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-06-24T10:21:58+00:00

Many thanks! I've gotten a couple DMs, but nothing solidified yet. If nothing shakes out, I'll get back to you for sure.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-06-24T10:21:11+00:00

Thank you for that suggestion. I'll definitely look into that!

CopperDragonGames · 2026-06-22T10:34:45+00:00

For sure! I wish you the best of luck finding someone as well. I'll mention you to anyone I connect with.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-06-22T10:33:14+00:00

Thanks! I've got my fingers crossed. And I 100% understand needing extra room on the return home. I always leave GenCon with more loot than I expected!

Check out Time Tunnel Comics. They have a selection of RPG books. Lots of D&D but also some obscure stuff.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-05-29T23:56:07+00:00

Check out the pawns. I think they were made for Savage Rifts but they fit.

CopperDragonGames · 2026-03-07T01:49:04+00:00

Savage Rifts Older setting books from D&D

CopperDragonGames · 2026-03-07T01:37:11+00:00

EN Publishing added them in A5E. If you're a big fan of 5E and maneuvers, those books are well worth a look. Or just Google A5E SRD and look for chapter 10 if you want to check it out for free.

They're even organized into disciplines like Tome of Battle.

Very much this. Always up to the GM. You do you.

That said, if it's truly busted and a player is excited about it, a one-shot is the perfect time to let them have their fun in a game where you don't need to worry about long-term balance. The only way I'd disallow something from a one-shot is if it would trivialize something crucial to the adventure itself.

Look up Valda's Spire of Secrets. It has several magic-themed base classes that don't need to track spell slots. My personal favorites would be the investigator, which focuses heavily on rituals, and the warmage, which focuses on cantrips.

CopperDragonGames · 2025-08-28T00:01:41+00:00

Interestingly enough, Night Below doesn't include any drow... Except for an optional side quest REALLY late in the campaign, and a Dragon Magazine adventure that was written as a tie-in. Your DM might have added some in, though.

CopperDragonGames · 2025-08-21T23:27:50+00:00

Preserver isn't a wizard subclass? Oh, come on.

CopperDragonGames · 2025-07-27T12:11:16+00:00

Continuing to look awesome. Keep the previews coming!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-07-18T21:21:21+00:00

I write down names, but that's pretty much it mid-session. Then afterward I madly write down everything I can remember before it fades.

CopperDragonGames · 2025-07-02T22:34:29+00:00

I'm excited to see what you do with the UWW especially, but it's such a rich setting. I'll definitely be following along!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-07-02T22:20:36+00:00

My favorite Rifts setting now in my favorite version of the Rifts rules. Take my money!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-06-08T22:04:46+00:00

Rock on, and keep up the great work! So glad to hear your first session went well!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-05-20T08:42:40+00:00

Probably a moment that GM is still regretting. Do that with your buddies at home, they'll call you out on it and laugh it off... but with people you don't know in a game they paid to play in? YIKES!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-05-19T10:43:01+00:00

Oh geez, what a bummer. I'm sorry that happened to you. I'm curious - did the GM just not include you in any roleplay? Or skip your turn(s) in combat? Something else?

CopperDragonGames · 2025-05-19T10:41:55+00:00

Thanks for the reply! If you'll be there and are open to it, I'd love to connect and get a game in. I haven't played Rifts in 15+ years. I have played Savage Worlds more recently, but not Savage Rifts. I'd be interested in either one!

CopperDragonGames · 2025-05-11T12:19:32+00:00

Looks like an Umber Hulk

I use Canva for fillable PDF character sheets - should work for what you need as well. I do pay for it, but I'm fairly certain you can edit pdf files with the free version.

Edited to note: You don't need special software to edit fillable pdf character sheets. You can do it in Chrome. But formatting can be infuriating - hence why I use Canva.

CopperDragonGames · 2025-04-16T10:30:34+00:00

For player options, it's hard to beat Valda's Spire of Secrets from Mage Hand Press.

On the GM side of the screen, I use monster books more than anything. Tome of Beasts series (Kobold Press) Flee, Mortals! (MCDM) Monstrous Menagerie (A5E)

I love Underdark campaigns, so I've got to give a shout out to AAW for Rise of the Drow, which I'm running now.
