    Warhammer: The Old World RPG Offers A New Take On The Empire

    Those that speak and promote the Skaven are removed from society, for the spreading of fear and untruth. It is said that this removal is done by a group of witch hunters but there is no record of them, others say it is agents of the Skaven themselves but who know what secrets are going on in...

    Warhammer: The Old World RPG Offers A New Take On The Empire

    Would like to hear why a new system? why it matters and the mechanics of difference, does it change anything or is it just a gimmick? Warhammer (to me) has always been about the world, the detail, the quirkiness, the dark and grim nature and over the years I have found a lot of material to...

    How do you handle jewelry and valuable art as a GM?

    For me it comes down to "inconvenience factor". Could be weight, could be size or could be shape or all of those, if it is just inconvenient it is just going to be difficult and a pain to carry or work with.

    Do You Care About Cosmology?

    Yes, and more than I should. :) Things like, Cast spells produce waste! This material will be wasted away and collect in low laying place and form a solid magic substance. That "magic" surrounds the campaign world like space surrounds a planet. The conflicts of the different users: Those...

    RPG Evolution: Eat or Be Eaten

    Wish more thought was put into the ecology of Dungeons/ruins/fantasy environments. As a GM I try to build every place to be used again and again. Dungeons that players have killed the BBEG become rental property to any henchmen or lesser monsters in the area, plus every up-and-coming treasure...

    City adventure ideas?

    Thing about a city is there are so many conflicts and jurisdictions that can generate plot hooks. Some examples: Law - in a fantasy this can get complex, you have guild law, civil, church, nobles and so on. Magic - Religion vs Mage, Schooled vs Unschooled, the casting of magic in general...

    City adventure ideas?

    Start with a map, use nick names and have some thoughts of what the city looks like (don't think the real Yanjin looks like this but...)

    City adventure ideas?

    Something I do with my players is allow them a number of NPCs that they can pull out at any given time. Say a player needs a to see a friend he knows of, so he just gives a description and brief backstory and I as the GM create the location where he can find them. Only rules I have most be a...

    City adventure ideas?

    Also look at crazy history stories, examples: Shanghaied, press gangs, Edinburgh body snatchers, London undergrounds and such. The biggest thing in a city is figuring if something mundane or supernatural.
