  • What’s right for me?

    Jump

  • Is that the system where characters can die during character creation?

  • Favorite twist on a pre-existing module/campiagn/story?

    Jump

  • Damn that's kinda great.

  • Question for everyone. Who here still goes to Game Shops to play their games?

    Jump

  • I go to try out different systems or to play systems my regular group doesn't play. Also, to remind myself why I have a regular group and how fortunate I am that they are mostly sane and adjusted people.

  • What is your favorite reflavor/reskin of officially published RPG material?

    Jump

  • I have never played Shadowrun online. I wonder if a lot of the tedium of the dice would be eliminated by character sheet math?

  • I really enjoyed the D&D 3rd Edition days, with the popcorn of d20-based games. Star Wars d20, d20 Modern, and the Sword & Sorcery Ravenloft were all great fun. The best part is that it was super easy to get your group to try new things, because the mechanics were all similar, if not exactly the same. People like to hate on D&D, but it's consistently been a great base to start from and inspiration for a multitude of other games.

  • The Flower Still Blooms - A Hexcrawl for Mausritter

  • I have had the desire to play Mausritter for quite a while. Will definitely add this to the queue.

  • Lemmy updated to 19.2

    Jump

  • Thank you very much! It's become my go-to reading and my life has gotten much more boring since it broke.

  • Is the blog roll bot going to make a return in this brave new 19.2 world?

  • What would your recommendations be?

  • D&D Item Card Template- A LaTeX Template for making simple, effective item cards by me!

    Jump

  • I think they look great but I would have a problem with the variable length. If my DM gives me magic item cards, I will for sure buy a binder with card sleeve pages to put those cards in (no matter if they are cards or just paper). Having the variable length would keep me from doing that. I would prefer the text be variable font size with the card sized fixed to the standard 3 1/2" x 2 1/2".

    Edit: I thought more about this and, if the main feature of your design is the variable length, maybe make that more obvious in the title/description. While it might not be to my liking, others may love it. Also consider adding some example 11" x 8 1/2" pages showing the layout you're going for using these cards. Marketing is (almost) everything.

  • An FKR Resurgence Post

  • I had to look it up too. It's super annoying to have to do that.

  • I read some of the preview and am now a different person.

  • Blog posts on how to run a West Marches campaign

    Jump

  • I don't know how old it is, but it's certainly not new. The article linked is one I read several years ago before I ran my own West Marches game.

    Edit: the post is dated 2007.

  • How do you select your player

    Jump

  • Everyone's situation will be different of course, but here is mine.

    I have a long-standing gaming group with 2 buddies from high school and have been playing with them since the 90's. The 3 of us are the core of the group. Over the years, other players have come and gone. For those players, we invited them to our regular group after first playing with them in one shots or short campaigns ran for new players or similar. If we have a seat open (our group is usually 6-7 including whoever is GM), we will invite them if they are good people. In the 30 years we've been playing together, we've never had a problem. The only reason people tend to fall out of the group has been people moving or having kids.

  • Would you be interested in opting-in to lemmy-meter.info?

  • The larger Lemmy world terrifies me. It's like a technological eldritch horror that I have somehow survived entering it's domain.

  • How to DM resources?

    Jump

  • Is there a reason you suggest only making things up as a last resort? Is that advice aimed at new gm's or is it your standard advice? Aside from that, I think your advice is mostly very solid. You should be proud of these guides!
