    Alas, I have found this to be a surefire way to convince everyone that you're neither.

    Calvin Chess, or how one AI breaks the rules as it sees fit...

    Gee, it is almost like the rules of a game can be ignored at any time if you don't care about people refusing to play with you. Or aren't programmed to care about that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Keith Baker Presents Closing Doors On Eberron

    An opportunity for him to write one of the best-loved tales in the series? (Baskervilles.) Too soon, too soon.

    The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

    I mean, since you clearly know better than I do what's going on in my mind, I guess there's no real need for me to provide parts of the conversation that you will promptly disregard in favor of what you think I mean.

    Why do RPGs have rules?

    Okay.

    Why do RPGs have rules?

    And I suspect that the designers of all role-playing games have a reason for the things they do. But I neither agree that this reason is ever anything more substantial than "I made up some naughty word I thought would be fun," nor that, if it is, their reasons have any relevance to my decisions.

    Why do RPGs have rules?

    How can you know that? And, how is their intention relevant to your decisions?

    Why do RPGs have rules?

    Let me first state that this is not an attempt to insult you or anyone else. It is not an attempt to make light of your question or any part of your post. It is only and simply the most concise answer I can give to this question. Why do RPGs have rules? Because the game designers said so. I'm...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Mini-Let's Read] Everyday Heroes, Character Creation & Game Design Elements

    An even more dystopian setting than the "Escape" movies.

    Which is ironic because it's not yet 2000 in that supplement.

    Pathfinder 2E What Are The Changes In Pathfinder Remastered?

    I suspect that's because the class needs much more reworking than others because of the removal of alignment, as the PF2.0 champion was much more tied to the alignment system than the cleric.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Mini-Let's Read] Everyday Heroes, Character Creation & Game Design Elements

    My gut instinct as GM would be to state that a 1st level "sniper assassin" is probably working for an organization who owns their weapon (and gear) and will reclaim it from them if they misbehave. So they have what they need to do what they do ... but they can't count on having it forever.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder To Get New Core Rulebooks Soon

    Ah, you want to be a ganzi kobold. Simple enough.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder To Get New Core Rulebooks Soon

    Mmm. Treating the errata-proofed printings of the original rulebooks as 2.1, the minimum I'd be willing to say is that this is 2.2.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder To Get New Core Rulebooks Soon

    ... so four years in, we get PF2.5. Okay, then.
