4 Ways Dragonbane RPG Beats D&D (+ 1 Way It Falls Short) | Drakar Och Demoner
How does Free League Publishing's Dragonbane RPG stand up against DnD 5e? I dig into the mirth and mayhem that make Dragonbane (also known as Drakar Och Demoner) a blast, with a look at everything from art to game mechanics. But I also look at how Dragonbane may not quite stack up.
If you love medium-weight RPGs where death lurks around every corner and so do the laughs, or if your looking for TTRPGs that aren't DnD for your next game night, check out this head-to-head battle between an updated Swedish TTRPG classic and the self-proclaimed "World's Greatest Role Playing Game." In this Dragonbane review, I'll answer the burning question: does Dragonbane have enough quack to take down DnD?

How Vecna Took Over the World | From Original D&D to 5e
มุมมอง 1.7K14 วันที่ผ่านมา
Vecna has evolved in his nearly 50 year history from a whisper of a legend in original D&D to the most powerful villain in the DnD 5e multiverse. We look back at the evolution of Vecna lore, from his obscure beginnings in OD&D to his godhood and status as the ultimate multiversal threat in Fifth Edition Dungeons & Dragons. Beginning with the appearance of the Hand and Eye of Vecna in the origin...

    Honestly I love the character progression. I like that you have classes but are free to advance skills and use items as needed and that "leveling up" does not freely give you a certain amount of HP and new spells. Progression in DB just feels more natural and organic. My minor gripe with it though is that I do not get why crit fails let you get a level up point. It kind of feels weird and the only reason I can think of is "Wow! I messed up so bad I can only get better from here."

    Runequest, Standard BRP, Call of Cthulhu, even Ruin Masters all have magic points and a casting roll. I don't really think Dragonbane is so different. Most settings that I am aware of limit to some degree the number of spell a character can can by Int. I think that D&D and OSR is the odd one out here.

    • @shortreststudios

Robert E Howard, Clark Ashton Smith all based on 1eAd&d. The system has a neat melee critical rules it give chunkier crits to fighters and similar classes, but more forgiving critical fails. While weaker crits for mages and their similar classes and less forgiving critical fails.

I played WHFRP long ago, and the first thing I fell in love with was that career system. It's brilliant and I've never seen anything else like it. Same with the Flashback from BITD.

    I have two great games that didn’t get mentioned. Conan: Adventures in an Age Untold by Modiphius is a great sword and sorcery game that delves deep into Hyborea with every book and was made in conjunction with the group that manages the canon for Conan. The downside is that it’s no longer in publication because Modiphius unfortunately lost the license. The other is The Dark Eye by Ulisses Spiel. The Dark Eye (Das Schwarze Auge in Germany) is a dark and gritty game that appears bright and hopeful. The great thing about it is the sheer customization of complexity that you can get. Surface level the game seems a lot more complex than it actually is, but runs smoother than silk when you get used to it. You can then add levels of focus rules here and there to increase granularity and complexity as you feel like it.

    DUCKS! How can you list RuneQuest yet give the 'credit' for Ducks to Dragonbane?! :D Both Dragonbane & Pendragon are based off the RuneQuest rules system.

      They are both based to a degree on BRP. No intention to give credit! I just wanted to talk about ducks! 🤣
