Funny how you preference is the only one without the GMs thumb on the scale… …and now I have whiplash. One thing is certain in any philosophy the GM can put their thumb in the scale. It’s generally frowned upon on any of them. They all seek fairness but it’s applied in different ways.

Ah, yeah I see why you think way differently than I on this topic now.

I think the scope of the CaW vs CaS had been increased here taking the original concept out of context. The original essay was comparing combat application in different editions of D&D. The why combat is happening isn’t important. I think it’s due to the view by many that combat is firmly in...

Easier said then done. When you host an open to the public community, you get all types. Though the show up with nothing expecting to play is like 1/20 players in my experience. It happens, and I dont know why they think the way they do, but its not that common.

I, too, once upon a time took it as any urban setting with fantasy elements. So, if it has to be contemporary, what do you call fantasy settings in urban environments?

Hey, hey Love, love Yeah, yeah Ah, ha D&D is dead That's what I said Let the game rap a plan influencer said they'd see it home But D&D's hope was a rope and it should've known It's hard to understand There was love in this game I'm sure all would agree That D&D's misery was its editions and...

Yeah but its got a better ring to it then "every third person's second favorite edition". Imma stick with it.

I’d love to see a D&D setting get even a tenth of the development of Golarion but that isn’t going to happen. So, sure toss another setting on the pile I’d take a look.

DS9 was pinnacle it’s all downhill now.

It does have a low cost but it’s usually pretty affordable. I’d ask an FLGS to cover the cost if they are charging for seats. It’s just an idea that has a lot of online support that may take some of the load off you.

If you are not running organized play you should look into it. Might take some work off your plate. It also expects inconsistent attendance but also encourages taking the GM seat on occasion. Build up from there. It’s tough sledding I e built a massive Battletech community here in the Twin...

I knew a few folks that noped out of Watchmen when Doc Man started to care a lot less about it.

Or the Watchmen.

Right! When folks say things like "5E is evolved 3E" I think they completely miss this point. 5E is streamlined to the point that leveling up takes 2 min tops and it shows. For some thats a feature though as they want a fast moving process. I felt like archetypes did this pretty well in PF1...

Well, its interesting to me because some of these ive talked to death about. I dont need fresh threads ever flowing for my choices. I picked purely on could play from here until eternity. Meaning, I left many systems I love on the block. Ones that are either newer or get talked about a lot I...

Fading Suns Sci-Fi RPG. The setting is a bit like B5. The PCs have been initiated into a special sect of the Imperial Church to investigate and eliminate demons across the galaxy. Very sci-fi-noir with touches of B5 and Evil.

I took an astronomy class in college and it consisted of like 7 or 8 online exams over the semester. I always dropped the needle on Miles' Bitch's Brew when I took those tests. Felt like the album was just made for that.
