It's the individual player's job to define his character's role, no one else's. When I saw that early PDF of 4E telling me "the cleric is a leader!" and "The Fighter is a defender!", etc I immediately said "Thank you but no thank you" and cancelled my amazon order. This was not the only factor...

Speaking anecdotally, the switch from 3.5 to Pathfinder did wonders for my particular group's interest, but we were always rules wonks.

Could one easily create maps on this program, then export them to a PC as a bitmap or something like that? I assume you can take screenshots, but is there a seperate feature to export them? edit - I see that the posted link answers my question! I'm all over this.

I'm not much of a DM, but I enjoyed collaborating with a friend of mine on a campaign he ran. I thought I'd share some of the highlights with the board in case it gave anyone any ideas they wanted to lift. First off, the entire setting was fun. Initially unbeknownst to the players, the whole...

Cool thread. I co-dm'd a campaign where the players were newish and all playing evil characters, so you know what that means - gory, gruesome murders too despicable to describe here. I can say one thing they did - round up the survivors of a small potters hammlet they had raided and stuck them...

Maybe this is off topic and maybe it isn't, but there's also things that are painful but not dangerous, like the way a cop manipulates pressure points.

Like what? The guy above me put this to bed pretty well, but I have this video to add - this is a full contact fight, no rules. The Hapkido guy goes for the balls here to no avail as well. A lot of people forget or just don't know that the sport of vale tudo (free fighting - brazillian no...

self-edited for content suffice to say i enjoy the drawing program in google docs as a game board

As an MMA fan who appreciates grappling and wishes stand-ups were abolished... ouch. Harsh but true, unfortunately - most (but increasingly fewer) people do not appreciate grappling. Of course, this is an argument that, no matter what side you fall on, is easily resolved with houseruling. That...

Thanks for that extra tip, I'm trying to convince my buddies to all get on G+ now

Yes, please post anything the mods deleted in this thread- the more awful the better. video somewhat related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFKvgo7q6lw

There was the cursed bean-bag clown toy that functioned as a magic blackjack and was posessed by the spirit of a mentally retarded child, which started screaming sonic spell damage if you put it down and ruined every stealth check by talking at inopportune moments then there was the magic three...

Forty-two.

YOU BETTED WRONGLY. That commercial is selling communication services. Video unrelated. Tim & Eric - Saints Row: The Third Commercial One - YouTube

He knows what you've been doing. Video unrelated. Oh my god we ate the whole brownie mountain - YouTube

Glad people like the idea, it has been working out great as a very simple way for me to reconnect and play with old friends that I haven't played with in YEARS. We also use the "presentation" doc for character notes - it's like giving every character a facebook profile. We put the backgound up...

Screw it then, let's have a youtube party! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFB6LQ1-WKU

Oops double post.

I'm curious to see how widespread the practice is. My buddies and I looked for a VTT for a long time and were never satisfied, but we're really enjoying Google Docs for all our simulated tabletop needs. It helps that we trust each other not to cheat. A spreadsheet can work as a map, and there...

Hi all I more or less started an account to weigh in on this topic, and let everyone know I've been tele-gaming with good friends via skype (sometimes gtalk) and, of all things, google docs! A spreadsheet can work as a map, and there are character sheet spreadsheets out there too with formulas...
