  • Warbreaker's my first Sanderson book! It's still my favourite of his.

  • Flipping through short stories from a couple of best-of anthologies at the moment, though I'm planning to start The Coral Bones by E. J. Swift sometime soon. Been on a kick of reading marine-adjacent fiction lately.

  • Though fighters were worse compared to casters in 3.5e or PF1e, at least you got to customize them with your crazy number of feats.

    Meanwhile 5e makes you choose between improving your stat scores or taking a feat. Hooray?

  • Perhaps it's my lack of experience with such systems, but I still see those as the same thing except whether you "zoom in" or "zoom out" of the scene. The closest analogy I can think of is Ironsworn, where you can use multiple Clash, Secure an Advantage etc. moves to simulate combat, or settle it in a single Battle roll. In the latter case, I'd still call it "Go then Roll" because deciding to fight at all is the choice being made.

  • I'm having trouble seeing the distinction. In your "Roll then Go" example, the PC already chose the course of action before engaging the ogre. 'I deal with the ogre offensively' is just more vaguely worded than 'I attack the ogre', isn't it?
