    D&D General One Piece of Art- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Class?

    Very cool. I love the menacing looking heron (or whatever it is.)

    What are you reading in 2024?

    I've just tried out manga classic Vampire Hunter D. I did not get into it.

    How much RP set up should a DM do for players?

    If by RP setup you mean give the player chances to do things that their character is good at and that the player enjoys doing? Then yes you should. Someone who has a face character obviously wants to do some face character schtick. Someone who builds a combat monster wants to do combat. Give...

    DUNE Movie: Thoughts, Opinions, and Impressions

    I found the manner in which the movie addresses the white messiah trope to be rather limp. I'll give them points for trying. Well, one point. Cos, they really didn't try very hard.

    Dick Turpin

    I haven't seen Dick Turpin but if you want to see Noel Fielding's comedic style check out The Mighty Boosh. There were three seasons. It's from about 20 years ago, but shouldn't be hard to track down on a streaming service somewhere.

    DUNE Movie: Thoughts, Opinions, and Impressions

    Different strokes indeed. Ah well, each to their own. :cool:

    DUNE Movie: Thoughts, Opinions, and Impressions

    Saw it the other night. It was not great. Still looked good. But it struggled with getting the story out. I get that they were trying to tone down the white saviour aspects of the story. But they really didn't do a good job of it. They needed to cut out extraneous bits (e.g. everything with...

    Changing Divine classes.

    Just to warn you, my preference is to do away with classes all together. I much prefer points based systems. So all my thoughts are coloured by this attitude. My first thought is that the divine magic/arcane magic split is dumb. I would just lump all spells together. Characters have pretty...

    Play Something Else

    I'm still noodling through how to do this with my Hero houserules. I'm currently going with 1-3 hero points (I'm calling them soap points) are earned for invoking a disd, depending on the intensity. The number of times a disad can be invoked depends on the frequency of the disad. Very common is...

    Play Something Else

    Thank you, mate, for your contributions to Champions. I've been enjoying the game for about 35 years now. And thank you, mate. I enjoy a compliment.

    Play Something Else

    Games where you built in disadvantages for your characters. GURPS and Champions specifically. My first thought on encountering the idea was something like "Why would anyone want their character to have disadvantages?" :rolleyes: It was one of the things that broadened my understanding of role...

    Why do many people prefer roll-high to roll-under?

    I have an unreasonable dislike of roll under percentile systems. No idea why.

    Play Something Else

    I did NOT like Champions Fuzion when it came out. How dare they get rid of all those lovely numbers! Fast forward about 25 years and my house rules for Champions are looking very Fuzion-esque. I should really re-visit it to see how I feel about it now.

    Campaigns inspired by songs

    I admit I didn't. But now I do. Thanks. :-)

    Play Something Else

    No. No no no no no. Monopoly might bore someone to death. But if you want to destroy long lasting friendships and all trust in people, it's Diplomacy all the way.

    D&D General How to move a game forward?

    I was joking about the chatbot.

    D&D General How to move a game forward?

    @EzekielRaiden Dude, why are you bothering? The guy's at best a troll. edited to add: or maybe a chatbot.

    Swyvers

    It is indeed a saucy title. I like the word. I once gave an anti-paladin NPC a warhorse called Swyver. Coz he could swyve you up.

    Why PCs should be competent, or "I got a lot of past in my past"

    Isn't the 50/50 chance of success the whole point of "bounded accuracy?" I should say, I hate "bounded accuracy" as a concept precisely because of this 50/50 nonsense. Player: "GM, I wanna do the thing." GM: "Flip a coin." As to the OP, I think what's being described is a type of...
