Google translates this to pork cracklings. Homemade are best, but those are usually available around November when we have traditional pig slaughter (also, google translate, we have specific word for that). Cold cuts are also good for for snacks. Some prosciutto, some homemade smoked sausages, a...

About 20 unopened sets of d&d dices ( ordered pound of dices from aliexpress for couple of euros). 2 sets of metal dices for d&d, one bought, one made by me as part of my bacc degree project. Couple of fancy regular dice sets for d&d. 30-40 regular d6. Ankh cross VtM 10s set by Chessex ( i can't...

Home invasion, grave robbing, murder, stealing. But if you do it to "always evil" or "always chaotic evil" monsters, then it's all good and dandy. @Chaosmancer That's why Paladins, at least before, had inbuilt sonars. If they ping evil, it's smite time. Laws are funny thing in d&d. Usually...

As I said, yes, there are more rpg's than ever, cause the barrier to entry has been lowered enough. It's easier than ever to self publish and self market because of internet. What i'm arguing is that today, D&D dwarfs all others by huge margin, while back in the late 80's, 90's and even early...

I'll take your word on it. Tbh, there are also lot more customers these days, population grows by 1 billion per 12 years. Movies you watched in theater, rented out when it came to video store year or so later, or were lucky enough to catch on tv. Same with tv shows, you tape it or watched it as...

I don't see how this last decade or so is Golden Age of ttrpgs. If anything, i would peg golden age in late 80s and 90s. Yes, these days it's easier to self publish, raise funds via crowdfunding, market via social media. But, on the other hand, we have more choices for entertainment than...

Voted None. Not fan of that art style.

No, but it's more crunchy than 2ed advanced d&d. In general, as far as ttrpgs, d&d 5e is on the crunchy side. And i would argue that, going by PHB only, 3e isn't more crunchy or complex than 5e, as far as character creation and options are concerned.

For advanced version, you first need basic one. As is, 5e is on the crunchy and more complex side as far as ttrpgs go. Not PF2 level of crunch, but not that far off. Adding extra complexity without first making simple base game is contra productive imho. Don't get me wrong, i think that it...

Same. Way back when in HS, our Saturday game was usually from 10-16/17. Not too early, cause hangover from Friday night was still going on, not to late, cause Saturday night was also for going out. Most sessions in university were 4-5 hours long. Only 8h sessions these days are 2-3 times a...

First of all, you can do evil acts for good cause. On top of my head. Drug cartel leader who uses drug money to help his community by building infrastructure (roads, pluming, electricity, schools, hospitals), hiring and paying living wages to needed professionals ( teachers, doctors...

It might be heresy to say, but something like basic classes and advanced classes? Basic are simple, easy to use, without lot's of moving parts. You do your thing, repeatedly and efficiently. Champion is great example of simple to use class. You hit things. Over and over. Some passive stuff (adv...

While i do love good british humor and have no problem with cheap looking sf shows ( fe i love Red Dwarf), i just can't get into Doctor Who. Of all the modern ones, season with Ninth Doctor is one i liked best.

@I'm A Banana Shadowrun did that way back when. Lofwyr as CEO/owner of Saedr-Krupp ( play on real world Thyssen-Krupp). Nachtmeister was president of banking corporation. They even had dragon Dunkelzahn as a president of USA. Most of great dragons (both western and eastern) are, in fact...

Depending on how open ended spells are. In D&D they are very strictly defined in scope of how and what they do. They are very specific. For instance: Mirror image 5e version Roll20 - Compendium and Rule Set Directory In Cairn, this is whole description of spell An illusory duplicate of...
