If I wanted to get into Shadow of the Demon Lord, obviously I'd need to get the corebook - but what other books are essential and greatly add to the game? It's great that it's getting constant content updates, but it makes it a little difficult to know where to start.

It's great that it's getting constant content updates, but it makes it a little difficult to know where to start. I think picking up The Demon Lord's Companion is good, as it gives you a mess of new Paths, items, spells and monsters. Of Monstrous Mien is good too if you're gonna GM since it is all about making custom monsters. After that, Terrible Beauty and Tombs of the Desolation both offer some new races and more monsters, adventure ideas etc. Tales of the Demon Lord is just a bunch of adventures which look pretty good. And there's Forbidden Rules, which is all about variant rules that let you customize the game more to your liking, some more radical than others. I'd say the core of the game consists of: The core book Th Demon Lord's Companion Tales of the Demon Lord Anything beyond that is really depending on what kind of game you want to run/what options you want the players to have access to.

Thanks! The next question is, is it worth getting? The shipping's only $9.50 so I'm tempted to actually get a copy.

I haven't played P:DC yet but I've read it end to end and I very much like what I see. Some of the antagonists are amazing -- like the memetic chant that possesses anyone who hears it, and then turns a select few of them into telekinetic murder machines -- and they can go properly hardcore with them because the PCs are expected to die a lot. It does have an intended player/GM knowledge gap, though. I don't mind that too much since I'll be GMing if I ever get it to the table, but I know some people consider that a black mark. The system seems fine? I haven't really analysed it, though. I was too busy getting hype for the setting and the premise. It's in the top three of my 'to run' list, along with Godbound and Fellowship.

FMguru posted:Trans-Siberian Orchestra "Christmas Eve / Sarajevo" Rad! That Lennox song is definitely going in the final showdown. Lemniscate Blue posted:TSO's "Wizards in Winter" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFLOh44P5z0) is less well known but I like it better. When they do it live there's a frankly ridiculous amount of pyro. Definitely needing some creepy piano. The game's signature song, "In the Hall of the Mountain King", is gonna play at all the major dramatic swings. When they encounter those naughty children cursed to live a thousand clockwork-toy lives bringing joy (and terror) to kids around the world I'll be whistling a creepy version of the Mountain King, and those piano songs are perfect backups! Wizards in Winter is exactly what I was looking for the HALO jump as our heroes and the best special ops teams in world begin an aerial assault into the contested airspace above on Kringle's Stronghold. And there's my credit's song. Thanks for all the help guys!

The banner I saw said "have a (thumbs up emoji) new years" so I already hate 2017.

It's a new year and this thread has more than enough pages, so I'm putting it to bed. New chat thread is here.
