    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    Thanks all! Getting the last bits of commissioned art together!

    Why Assassins are awesome!!!

    I prefer the low magic campaign. We DO have a lot to choose from--mage, specialist mage, warlock, sorcerer (sorcerer you are born with it), and cleric, druid, shaman....then we have the bard that can be arcane, divine, or have a special bardic ability of being able to cast both divine or arcane...

    Why Assassins are awesome!!!

    You gag at one of my only good rolls for a stat? lol. Bah! She is a 0-level right now who has somehow survived her first 'adventure'---basically a mining cave-in that opened up a dungeon. Daddy wanted her to learn a honest days work...Was supposed to be like a funnel adventure that set the...

    Why Assassins are awesome!!!

    Happy Thanksgiving! An interesting question. I think they would need to abide by both, but the 'god' trumps land laws in my opinion. Right there---that could take the paladin out of several dungeons/adventures. They shouldn't want to loot some random place for gold...instead they would want to...

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    Thanks Palindromedary!! Seems to be going pretty good so far. We always have a slow start and crawl to the finish line. I will admit, email list does seem the way to go to get the word out. Noticed quite a bump to the pre-launch page after I did it. It actually suits me better too as I would...

    The state of Post-OSR content

    It's sad...honestly. I think back to the war movies like Saving Private Ryan or some of the other goodies. We got trained fighters out there, on a beach, in complete chaos and destruction. Trying to survive and fighting or even just wandering around aimlessly trying to deal and process through...

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    This is the link and info I was looking for. VERY helpful. Thank you. Ill have to re-think my strategy. This all makes sense now, because I never or rarely see ads on social media for these huge kickstarters that turn out (although that's not saying much since I don't visit social media all that...

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    Ya, I hear that. I haven't really been going there much anymore. Not because I don't like the crowd, or because my main purpose was to get a following or whatever--- but because they talk about the same old stuff over and over. How many times can we talk about the Caves of Chaos? or the Village...

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    The only way I can easily get emails is from Kickstarter which I believe forbids doing anything with them except for sending product and DrivethruRPG which I can't link anywhere else. I think I got 2 people signed up on the webpage. I just try to do adventures different. Goblin cave? ok, what...

    Wow Squeen...you are really kicking ass with all this!! I love those inked trolls up there and some of these battle scenes are great!

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    This is all very helpful guys! Just hearing that there isn't a silver bullet is helpful actually...makes me feel better. I also realized, I think I completely lack the writing skill for Players--like in Beoric's example. I just have a huge challenge writing like that--which may go hand in hand...

    [Kickstarter] The Coming of Winter, but let's talk about something else...

    I seriously loathe advertising. Ok...let's back up a second. I know I'm supposed to be talking about our new Kickstarter--The Coming of Winter which has a pre-launch page here: The Coming of Winter and where you can find more info about it on our blog/website and also I'm happy to answer any...

    I need to finish my darn launch page this weekend...we got one rolling out soon too for 3 winter-themed adventures rolled into one. Yours sounds interesting Robert! Looking forward to it.

    The Classic Adventure Gaming Podcast

    Ohhh....I totally agree with that! Player skill can be 'reading the room' and assessing numerical odds, BUT I'd also argue that 'player skill' can also reflect the actions of their character's roleplay. For example, good character roleplay and doing things they wouldn't do as a player could...

    The Classic Adventure Gaming Podcast

    I don't necessarily think the blather is pointless. I find it one of the last places in this new world where people can disagree, discuss, and debate....and still show up for the most part or get along. From what I noticed people may disagree with Squeen---but they still dig his art....they...

    The Classic Adventure Gaming Podcast

    Hoping to get some moments to listen. I'm interested in how you interpret this and hope its covered on the podcast: "player over character, skill over dialog, challenge over drama." I get our challenge taste by not being able to be strategic as a player with the other players. Example: you cast...

    Poisons

    Ooh...I like that. Ya, I have a room with scrolls of past jobs, but this is a great treasure idea! I thought I recognized you at the whipping post......what is up with the work world lately--its been insane. And the window for responding isn't closed. Players got distracted, got in a big fight...

    Poisons

    Thought I would try to get a discussion going. I've been playtesting Vermilion and the way the party has been going and the choices they made, I had to add an extra 'dungeon'. It's an embassy as a front...and really an assassin's guild. They don't know they are entering an assassin's guild as...
