    What's the best potato?

    My first instinct was to go latkes. However, I went French Fries, because the latkes would, specifically, be my mom's in which she blends the potatoes rather than shred them. Plus, I am going to consider chili fries falling under French fries and chili fries are next level fries.

    Player skill vs character skill?

    Why should we prevent a player who is not a good Tactician to play a characterr who is a good Tactician or to play a character more intelligent than themselves if they invest in the proper mechanics if that is their fantasy and role they want to play? We don't tell people not to play an...
