    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    The last models abd resin add-on bits I for my nascent Blood Angels 40k army. Robin Williams was right. Cocaine is a cheaper habit. It’s going to look good when it’s done but it’s been twice as expensive as I was initially planning.

    Non-fantasy RPG suggestions?

    You might try something like the GURPS Action! line. It’s designed to emulate 80’s action movies. Core GURPS would also work just fine for this.

    GMs: When Is Enough Enough?

    The 6 session minimum kind of happened by accident. I’m the forever DM of the group and was going through a phase where I wanted to try a bunch of different stuff. My players got frustrated. When I asked the minimum number games should be per game they all said 6. So that’s what we go with...

    GMs: When Is Enough Enough?

    We have a 6 session minimum rule for games. One shots aside we can typically tell within 6 session whether a game is going to work, needs house rules for us, or if we need to bail. It also gives my players time with their characters. We might have to house rule something if we find it...

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    Deadlands & Blood Drive VTT modules. I’m starting a Blood Drive campaign Wednesday night. The Savage Worlds Foundry implementation is good adding the Blood Drive and Deadlands core modules is going to make my prep-life easier.

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    Just backed Blades in the Dark: Deep Cuts on Backerkit and Astra Arcanum on Kickstarter. PDF only. I have my sickness under control.

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    This made me go check and see if I had one…not quite there yet but I’ve got about 5 more I’ve got in saved status to follow up on. There’s still hope for me!

    For those who don't play D&D (or its clones), what keeps you engaged with EN World?

    Most of what others have said. But I would add the quality of conversation here is higher than what I see on Reddit. And I really, really like the moderation that keeps this place from becoming a cesspool like so many others. I prefer old school forums to discord. I hate the discord format...

    What time would you play an evening online 3 hour game session mid to long term?

    A Friday night 7/8-12 session would be fantastic. Four solid hours with a break and some social time. Sometimes my 7-10 session doesn’t feel like it has room to breathe. And if you get sidetracked that three hour slot disappears quickly.

    What is/are your most recent TTRPG purchase(s)?

    Does 40k count? I’ve started a Blood Angels army, which has eaten into available ttrpg fundage significantly. Or to paraphrase Robin Williams, cocaine is a cheaper habit…

    What time would you play an evening online 3 hour game session mid to long term?

    7-10 is what we play. If we run a little over 10:30 isn’t too late. Once you start getting towards midnight on a school night it gets tough.

    D&D 5E If you could run or play in any D&D 5e campaign right now, which would it be?

    I’ve been reading Dungeons of Drakkenheim to run it at some point. It scratches an itch for me. I’ve always wanted to run a Pools of Radiance type game and this fits. Empire of the Ghouls is another 5e campaign I’ve been looking at, with an eye towards running.

    What Are Your Non-Gaming Hobbies/Interests?

    Woodworking mostly, I like to build furniture. Mostly with hand tools. Travel when I can. Hopefully be able to do more after this year when I catch some things up. I’m a music listener. Lots of genres. I wish I could play but I’ve never learned an instrument. I also have three German...

    How Much Do You Care About Form Factor/Book Size?

    Same. I’ve skipped a couple simply because of the size difference.
