    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    Welcome to the Twilight Zone! Do not update your internet, your tablet or your phone... "this is real!" I'm done.

    Black Widow

    Saw it on Disney+. Enjoyed it. Its main claim to fame is that it is a 98% all female cast superhero movie.

    Black Lightning (season 4)

    Agreed. Still, I'm glad it got an actual ending and wasn't simply cancelled. Overall I enjoyed this series much more than many other Netflix or CW productions.

    D&D 5E (2014) How many combat encounters per adventuring day does your group have?

    As many as the story and character choices dictate. From 1-2 to 4-6 per adventuring day.

    D&D General Does the killer DM exist?

    Thanks for sharing this. That is a prime example of a BBEDM.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Mainstreaming of D&D

    You should play one of the TSR editions if you want to be part of an obscure group of people again. It's not mainstream, lots of weird stuff going on and it's 'edgy' because of all the colonial political underpinnings.:p

    TSR TSR3 Throws In Towel, Rebrands Wonderfilled

    So I leave this place for one day and miss all this drama! Changing name doesn't wash away what was said. It's still the same people behind. I guess they got a C&D from WoTC.

    What podcasts do you listen to (and why?)

    Some friends of mine used to do a wargaming podcast called Geeks of the North. They would review KS and new games. They also painted minis at the same time. Listeners were invited to do the same. I did. They abandoned the project because of covid-19 and real life. I sometimes listen to EnWorld...

    Black Lightning (season 4)

    Made it to episode 7. So far so good. Tipping point of the season. A weird turn of events happened, looked it up on wiki and understood why they made the change. We love to hate Tobias Whale.

    D&D General Does the killer DM exist?

    We hear about the BBEDM all the time. The one that enjoys torturing players, killing their characters, abused DM fiat, with inconsistent rulings and other shenanigans. Does he even exist? To me he is a legend. Never met him. Never played with him. I only played with inexperienced DMs that got...

    D&D 5E (2014) [Hit Points] What method do you use to determine HP after level 1?

    Yes of course. 0.5 are not results you can roll on a die. The 'average' is rounded up in favour of the player.

    D&D General What are your Core races?

    In my last campaign. Humans only available for players. No elves, dwarves, halflings, orcs, goblins, kobolds, etc. I used humanoid races from the Creature Codex by Kobold Press: Bearkins, trollkins, scrags. Keeps the PCs alert. Everything feels new.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Hit Points] What method do you use to determine HP after level 1?

    A lot of interesting ideas. Tx 94 votes, almost at 100. One last push to get there.

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    Yep, long before Laura Croft, my first AD&D character in 1982 was called White Maiden, a female Paladin with an 18-79% Strength score no less. (f@$ck the max 50% rule).

    D&D General The Problem with Evil or what if we don't use alignments?

    I see people got bored of TSR3 threads. Back to the same old "comfort food" debates. :p

    Air Conditioner Madness (What do you set yours at?)

    I use the dry function a lot to remove humidity from the house during the day and then switch to AC around 6-7pm for the night at 21°c. Obviously closing the blinds 3/4 with panels to reflect the light towards the outside helps a lot.

    A Great Solo Game For Aspiring Han Solos

    Added to my buy list. Thanks for the review. I've been eyeing this for quite some time.
