Talk:Dragon Age (tabletop RPG)

Pen? PenCIL

I've always had a real problem with the term "Pen & Paper". Who in their right mind uses a pen to play P&P RPGs? It's a blatant misnomer. :) --XavierGrimwand 17:07, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, that is what it's called on the DAO website.

Firstly, I was attempting to be humorous. And secondly, BioWare isn't always correct. ;)

--XavierGrimwand 21:27, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Oh okay, sorry Chuck. And no they aren't, but it is still what it's been called. Anyway, it's rather irrelevant because I doubt they'll still be calling it the 'Dragon Age: Pen and Paper RPG' when it's released.

Availability

Any Word on when this should be released or if it's even still in the works? I would love me some D&D style DA:O Da'Bardman 20:31, January 27, 2010 (UTC)

It is in stores now. AusJeb 15:29, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Fan Materials

Any interest in added fan-generated materials for the tabletop RPG to this wiki? AusJeb 15:29, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Green Ronin has it's own Forums and Fan site for such. You may enjoy browsing and adding there. Ozena Lyn (talk) 14:42, December 17, 2010 (UTC)

Table Top RPG

The publisher, Green Ronin, has it labeled as "table top" RPG, but I think Pencil and Paper is definately more correct than Pen...perhaps an edit there?

It shipped to stores in early June. The game play is very simple. I was a D&D player in my youth, but never DM a game before. I was able to pick this up, read the books, and run a game for middle school students with minimal difficulty. I think children younger than 14, with the attention span needed to follow this sort of game, can easily enjoy this adventure. We had an 8yo "apprentice" who followed the story line and captured more detail than some of the older children. Overall, a very enjoyable introductory adventure. Using the free character generator from the BioWare forums really cuts down on character setup and makes moving into the actual game faster as well. Ozena Lyn (talk) 11:44, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

So you're suggesting a page move to either "Dragon Age (tabletop RPG)" or "Dragon Age (pencil and paper RPG)"? I probably prefer tabletop myself, but can go with either if we get consensus. I hope you keep having fun with it!

Also I remember uploading this picture ages ago for this page, but I don't where it fits in. Are you able to help? Loleil ^Talk 00:32, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

If it was me, I'd rename it "table top RPG" and maybe note in parenthesis (pencil & paper) for clarification.

I've not seen that picture, it's not the box or the books I've got...but it's lovely...wonder if it was concept art, or a collector's edition...or game book 1 that's not out yet. The adventure book is to have 3 full length adventures and 3 adventure outlines. I'd so love to have a book that looked that nice! Ozena Lyn (talk) 00:43, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if this discussion is worth bringing up again, but I think that Dragon Age (tabletop RPG) would be the correct name and also a better name, being shorter and all. --Davilimap (talk) 04:19, May 13, 2013 (UTC)

That's possible. Feel free to add a move candidate on the page in order to start the voting process. 09:44, May 13, 2013 (UTC)

Beta Test-Rule Set 2

Green Ronin has available on it's website forums the Beta Test for Rule Set 2. I wanted to post a note just in case there were other Table Top players that hang out here, instead of there, like I do.

Happy download and reading.

Question from a Wikia contributor

I Have a wonder in this wiki of plunder I saw a book that my Eye doth Sunder but I where can I buy this book in which I hunger?[Shadow0fnight] (I copied the Elder oak on this one but the qustion still stands)

Moved your question to the talk zone off the info page :) Ozena Lyn (talk) 14:41, December 17, 2010 (UTC)

Dalish Curse

Glad to see the note about how Mythal is incorrectly identified as the god of vengeance (Mythallen should really be named "Elgar'nanlen"), but what about his minions? They're referred to as "darkspawn", even though they seem to be the result of "corruption" from the abomination. The Revengers are even noted as "Rage Darkspawn". Is it just a very consistent error, or from earlier DA:O notes? There are other little things, like the Chant being called "the Song", that make me think the latter is possible. - Wandrew (talk) 09:44, July 8, 2013 (UTC)
