There's been a bunch of Bluesky posts memeing various returns to Avengers: Doomsday, but this is one of the funniest

We'll see how it affects my group, we're adding a PC, going from 5 to 6, but tbh, between a Halfling and a Seraph in the party, the party can generate a lot of Hope without even needing to roll.

Don't worry too much about "getting it right". I've been running a fairly trad Daggerheart campaign, because my experience is I've only DMed DnD, and a bit of FATE and (very briefly) 13th Age. So I'm aware I need to use Fear better outside of combat, and several other things that come from not...

Specifically for Daggerheart, one is coming. One of the announced projects was a Romantasy Campaign Frame "With Love and Magic", article here: The Daggerheart romantasy campaign With Love and Magic is coming “fast” as Critical Role tests a digital-first release strategy I'll admit, I tend to...

Glad to see everyone for yet one more last hurrah. ETA: Don't get me wrong ... I love them, eager for more X-Men (MTG set and second season of X-Men '97 when?), but this movie is gonna be so overstuffed I doubt they'll get much more than that.

Daggerheart does have class specific character sheets, but also a generic one as well. TBH, because a lot of design is in the subclass and domain cards, the class write-ups are tiny compared to DnD. Most of the classes in the Daggerheart Core book are a single 2 page spread, and that's...

I've found that the Background and Connection questions have done a lot of heavy lifting to get players into improv-ing and thinking about their character. It was fun to see in our session 0, already seeing roleplaying and collaborating between the players as they answered those questions.

Since I already did films ... this year's cream of the crop of TV came down to two series for me: Andor S2: Worthy of all the accolades, and well worth the wait, S2 of Andor was iconic and now cements Andor as one of the best Sci-fi series I've ever watched. So many quotable moments, excellent...

For me AP clearly means "All Purpose", like AP Flour ;-) As for sales ... no one, not Pathfinder, not Daggerheart, are in DnD's league. That doesn't mean Daggerheart isn't doing shockingly well on its own terms.

For us, it's Uzska (mushroom and onion filled small dumplings) served in Borscht that is always the first course at Xmas dinner.

I liked the finale, it wrapped up the series in a satisfying way. I'm guessing we're just going to skip or gloss over the legal ramifications, because the gang racked up an impressive body count on Kay's seemingly endless supply of soldiers. It's funny, in discussions, a lot of my friends were...

It's more a Christmas movie than Die Hard

I haven't picked it up yet, but there's a copy of Forge of the Artificer with my name on it at the LGS.

My only beef with it was it was just a setting up the finale episode. Sure, Will finally coming out was well done, but a lot felt like putting pieces into place.
