You might be able to convince your DM to use the companion rules from DMG 2. There would have to be some plot device to get your animal companion in the party, of course.

Although my group and I are not fans of M&M, I'm happy for Green Ronin. Well done, sirs, I wish you continued success!

Fantastic show. Loving it. When you peel away the gratuitous sex and violence, you have some surprisingly complex characters and interesting plots. Even Crixus, who i wrote off as a 2-dimensional meat head at the beginning, had me deeply moved by his plight by episode 12. Unfortunately, season...

Ok, I gotta ask...has anyone tried running a rules-lite, beer-and-pretzels game of 4e using only the companion rules? :cool:

I dunno, man. Jeff Bridges in the lead role? Coen Brothers? I'm sold.

This didn't really bother me at all. It had the spirit of the game in there, which was enough for me. I went to the show expecting a lame musical version of "The Gamers" but I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't; the show turned out to be more sophisticated than that. I got the impression it...

Anyone playing? I'm not done with it yet, but I'm digging the improved gameplay (buh-bye, hacking headaches!). Graphics look the same, but they weren't broken, so can't complain. I will say the character animation looks improved- the NPCs seem more expressive. Although the story isn't as...

Indeed, I am a fellow Trojan, although that info is a bit outdated- I live in Albany now. :heh: She had a fantastic voice, and the shadow puppets were hilariously clever. Hard to believe most of the show was put together in only two weeks!

I saw the show at MassMoCA as well. Funny as hell, with flashes of brilliance. The music was fantastic.

nnoooooooooooooooooooo!

When i first got the M&M book several years ago, I was delighted how slick the system seemed compared to traditional D20. Years later, when I finally got to play it, I had already been exposed to 4e and Star Wars Saga. The concept of defenses rather than saving throws had spoiled me forever...

If you want rules lite and you are truly sick of d20, M&M is not the game for you. Sure, it plays faster than traditional d20, but it still suffers from many of the D&Disms that probably gave you a headache from your 3.0 experiences such as ability score damage and piles upon piles of fiddly...

This is extremely weird that this thread is here, because i literally just came home from a one-shot of B2., Unfortunately, Not many people showed up; I guess the DM underestimated player interest for walking down memory lane, but I digress. I will say this: If you try to run the module as-is...

Too much of anything is bad for you. Moderation people! Don't forget to get outside for a little vitamin D, gamers!

C'mon, Pramas, spill it! What are the mechanics like? :D It's frustrating that so little is known about the ttrpg- I am going to have to wait for more info to pass judgement, obviously. But what little we know - boxed set, easy to learn, tied to a major video game release - gives me hope...

D&D would work well as a TV series. There are truly endless story possibilities, and it would require a long-running series to tell even a fraction of them. Of course, it would be hard to do all the races, creatures and exotic locations on a TV budget....maybe a CGI animated show (ala Clone...

Its true metals have better sculpts and (depending on your skill) better paint jobs, but I don't mind paying 3 bucks for a mini that is lightweight, easy to store, and durable. Nor do I mind saving the time and labor of painting them all.

Try these: Fear the Boot general discussion about RPG issues, been around for a while. Dan certainly has the gift of gab. The Podge Cast Funny guys. Never boring Role Playing Public Radio Tom and Ross are hilarious, their gaming advice is helpful, and they do post actual play sessions. They've...

Re: 10 min workday and reserve points Wulf, can you elaborate on the concept of reserve points? I assume you gain a new point every other level and as mini-rewards by the DM. Is there any other way to gain them? Do you recommend a point cap? Should they replenish after 24 hours? Considering...

Nice! I like how you put the skills next to the ability scores. The powers pages are pretty slick too.
