Well, really, do you actually expect them to admit they had another Xenomorph event? :)

True. But the Queen, at least, seemed to understand, based on her interaction with Ripley in the hatchery. She understood the implied threat of the flamethrower, understood that it was a promise of future action against the eggs, and also understood what it was Ripley wanted (ie. the retreat of...

“What do you mean, 'They cut the power'? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!" I would think that would indicate at least some abstract thinking?

I’ve been using Dungeondraft for years, and it’s been a godsend. Decent maps without a lot of stress, and I can even export directly to Foundry and have the walls pre done for me.

Very nice! Dungeondraft?

This was the very first Dragon I ever bought. Thanks for the nostalgia!

I said it was easier to have it available. Nicer. More convenient. For us. Instead of everyone having to manually flip through pages all trying to find a reference. Yes, we could play Daggerheart without it. In the hoary old days, we used to use Maptool, which had zero content available...

I'm really not sure why you think I'm arguing with you. Other than I don't like the implication that I have problem players because we prefer to have it in VTT. It's just more convenient. I'm in a 5e game right now. And having the ability to send a spell description to chat so we all can read...

Calling this a player problem is really stretching things. All I'm saying, is that my group (stretched across 100's of kms) finds it easier to have all the content centralized in the software. I'm not saying you can't run a VTT as a glorified ToM, I'm just saying I can see why a lot of people...

True, but with a game like Daggerheart, it’s hard to pass around the cards if you aren’t around a table. Having them in the VTT makes it a lot easier. Unless everyone playing has a copy of the rules and cards on their own, but in my experience that’s far from guaranteed. Especially at the...

Doesn’t it already include the SRD? Which, I believe, is the lion share of the content? Other than art and such?

When I was younger, I used to think that the level of cartoonish, over-the-top villainy displayed by the evil factions in media was completely unrealistic. Enjoyable, but something you just had to suspend your disbelief for. I'm much older now. And unfortunately, the last few decades have...

Yeah, a lot of times there are very good reasons deleted scenes were deleted. Introducing Luke before he interacted with the droids and the main plot wouldn’t have been worth the extra time. It’s the same with the extended edition of Aliens. While there are a lot of great scenes added...

This is also a biggie for us. As I mentioned earlier, our Level 6 campaign has taken close to a calendar year. We try to play weekly, but with schedules, that has worked out to about 25 sessions so far. At this point, the story we're telling is coming to a satisfying end point. And I'm...

Coincidentally, I’m just a few weeks from wrapping up a campaign, and the characters are 6th level. It has nothing to do with the rules, and more that we’ve been playing for almost exactly a year, and I’m starting to burn out as a DM, and need a break. Of course, I levelled them slower than...
