Which post? Not seeing a mention of no game wanted posting board. At least not in this thread. But anyway, if your local game stores are D&D only, time to try elsewhere. There are a LOT of folks playing games other then D&D. Seems this forum has a Gamers seeking Gamers section. I know that...

As I mentioned in my post, wasn't sure about books. But websites are a different matter. Whether ADA proper or follow on legislation, websites are covered to some extent. When I worked for a US state agency, website accessibility was one of the things we in IT had to consider. Article with...

On one hand, count yourself lucky that you have FOUR! game stores nearby. There is one here and it is a 60 mile round trip away. The next nearest is a 100 mile round trip. But I don't get the game store attitude of D&D only. The one here is pretty much play what you want during open gaming...

The already mentioned Monopoly. Card game of Spades, every group has its own set of house rules. A lot of current RPGs are ran as an almost constant combat but with minimal real risk of character death. It seems that we just go through the motions. What ever happened to the social side of...

Have you sent your request to the game publishers? In the US, there is the Americans with Disabilities Act. Businesses have to accommodate folks with disabilities to some extent. Poor vision is one of those things. This includes websites but is often mostly ignored. Maybe you can get...

You joined the game to help your friend deal with a divorce and be a GM. Sounds like mission accomplished. You were unemployed at the time and presumably had time to burn. You don't now. IMO - time to call it and leave the game. Emphasize your new job hours and current lack of sleep...

For extra excitement, the ringing artifact bell attracts the interest of <something> that shows up wondering who is ringing its bell. Might give you a way to remove the artifact from play assuming the party succeeds in capturing the spirit back into the vessel. Or trade for something useful in...

Bourne - Plot Twist - Bring Matt Damon(Jason Bourne) back as the leader of <program name here>. After all, Bourne has a lot of knowledge about how the thing can go wrong. Maybe the direction change is trying to do the program in a good way but things still go wrong. Would allow a new actor to...

Agree with @Ulfgeir but I see some Mal from Firefly in the brown coat. But the hand held device pointed more toward a Doctor Who. Mal would more likely be holding a pistol. Guinan = strange is an understatement. She even makes Q nervous.

The spirit is bound to the clay vessel. What happens if the clay vessel is destroyed? Spirit unbound and free? Or destroyed? What happens if the clay vessel is mended with the spirit on the outside? Which character has the mending spell? Does the spirit know this? If so, spirit could...

Option 3. Pick one that matches your campaign. High magic - Forgotten Realms. Normal magic - Greyhawk. Survival is hard - Dark Sun. Pirates - go with something like Freeport. Space based - Spelljammer or borrow the Starfinder setting from Paizo.

In today's society where most people have a full featured recording studio in their pockets, your super hero activities will be recorded and posted. Any normal life friends will most likely look at said posts and eventually one will notice "Hey, that super hero looks like Fred!" Then ask you...

Most guidance on in game romance tends to discourage it, at least between PCs. Too much chance of Real Life issues between the players blowing up an In Game affair between characters. Add in a chance of an in game blowup("I am doing what my character would do...") blowing up a RL relationship...

K-12 schools. Some literature mention, reading and study. Some from science class for sources of names of planets, stars and constellations. At least one Star Trek Original series episode.

Plus he came up with a 6 legged turkey for the Thanksgiving broadcasts. I think he really liked drumsticks.

Not sure about D&D 5 but in earlier versions and PF, Bards can be bards without items. Performance Dancing, Singing, Oratory, + maybe others. Trying to make a bard into a front line fighting type is probably an exercise in frustration. They really aren't meant to do that role. Supporting the...

As a retired IT person, filtering is one of those thankless tasks that gets the most attention when there is an oops. Delicate balance between too much and not enough. Made worse these days by folks getting better at using variants of AI to try zillions of ways to bypass protections. Thanks...

I have taken some oddball KS stuff to gaming sessions and offered to the other players and sometimes related kids. You don't have to keep it all. I have watched KS where someone asked for a special "Includes this stuff" tier and it happened. Sometimes it becomes obvious that the initial...

Depends on how 'balance' is defined. Is one set of point buy(PB) stats perfectly balanced against a different set of PB stats? Probably not. But did the player using PB have a balanced opportunity to create a character as compared to the other players at the table? In my opinion, yes...
