    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Skipping to the alley scene works well if you want. The main point of the jail encounter is to plunge the players into the howling mood I think. But jailer intentionally locks them there because he is worried they may be infected. So I don't think he simply forgot, he is paranoid the PCs or his...

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Some of this stuff boils down to expectation. I know people who loved this one. Expedition to Castle Ravenloft for 3E was my end point for buying WOTC modules. II think the heavy use of combat tiles and some of the gamier conceits just made it clear it was not what I was looking in Ravenloft...

    D&D General The thread where I review a ton of Ravenloft modules

    Ravenloft in 2e has many of the 2E era issues. but I will say Feast of Goblyns always worked great for me. I love werewolf movies and adventures and it was pretty solid (whether run straight through which is admittedly more of a challenge, or taken in parts ----pretty much all of the locations I...

    Spoilers Civil War Movie

    Also on the term limit thing, one detail that is important is that is a constitutional amendment. Amendments are intentionally difficult to introduce and to change. It would require a broad consensus for the country to shift to three four or more term limits at this point

    Spoilers Civil War Movie

    I think a partisan civil war movie would be pretty bad (one of the worst books I ever read was Orson Scott Card's highly partisan Empire, which is about an second American civil war, and that kind of story really loses something when it is simply about the writer showing how right they think...

    Spoilers Civil War Movie

    There are always other explanations but I think the point though is pretty much all Americans recognize in a movie set in the future, with a third term president, implies he has moved towards being a dictator. Term limits could change. But the most likely scenario pretty much any American...

    I have the novel and have been meaning to read it forever but things keep getting in the way. Is it a good read?

    I only do it for the purpose of keeping a log usually

    Social Encounters: Does it Matter What and How PCs Speak to NPCs?

    For me what the players say usually matters more than anything. Though other factors like reputation, general charisma of the character and a relevant skill roll might help tilt things

    Spoilers 3 Body Problem

    I had a similar issue with the book. But have heard good things about the show. Been meaning to check the series out at some point

    Spoilers So, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire? [spoiler thread]

    Yeah I agree. I can watch both of the third installments, but like I said in the previous post they aren't good movies. Also I think the big difference between T1 and T2, is T1 is not an 'Arnold movie' but T2 is (in that it follows a lot of the formula and style of his films from Commando...

    Spoilers So, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire? [spoiler thread]

    They managed four believe it or not since T2. I didn't mind part 3, but it wasn't a good movie at all (just better than I remembered it was when I saw it again). Salvation was awful and Genysis was a different flavor of awful but still awful. I didn't see the Dark Fate because I was too burned...

    Spoilers So, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire? [spoiler thread]

    I agree the analogy is odd given the quality of the two sequels. I would disagree the sequels are superior though. The sequels are good but I prefer the original movies in both cases

    D&D 2E 2E Darksun Observations

    I could have sworn there was an ability you could get by 3rd level ability that was very powerful. Do you happen to recall what this might have been?

    Lol. I think we glossed over that detail when we used to complain about it back in the day

    D&D 2E 2E Darksun Observations

    I have to say this does seem to balance it out pretty well. Is that a 1 in 20 chance then a save with +5 bonus?

    D&D 2E 2E Darksun Observations

    That isn't what I mean. I mean, and I could be wrong as it has been ages since I looked at the 2E Psionics Handbook, when that book first came out, I am pretty sure that was the one that turned us off because it could potentially be taken at an early level (I may be thinking of another one, but...
