I use two plastic boxes. One mostly for d6s from various games and a second one for the other types of dice. I have tokens and glass beads. I also use a foldable dice tray.

For me the appeal is the 'relative' simplicity of the system compared to the d20 systems. Also it includes an easy to grasp and serviceable setting. It has the gritty feel I prefer for my campaigns. I also bought the starter set which comes with 5 pre-gen characters, a rules book and a setting...

Give each player a secondary npc and keep rolling those dice! I've done it and works really well.

Cancelled due to vacations.

Haven't played yet but we are in the process of creating characters. Should play in a few weeks. I did a few solitary combat simulations by myself. It works really well. You certainly can play with just the Core Book using the two adventures at the back of the book. The system can be lethal...

You must watch Deliverance by John Boorman if you have not already. The plot is the river.

Finished Elfstones of Shannara. Much better than Sword of Shannara. Good for easy and lazy summer fantasy reading. Started Wishsong of Shannara.

I started a pbp d20 Modern campaign on the Gleemax forum. I had four players who made characters. When time came to play I described the opening scene at the specified date... and no one answered. I looked at the thread everyday for a week. No one responded. Turned me off pbp.

We never had a group of player large enough to do that. We did have two DMs and two campaigns but we never transferred a character from one group to the other. There was no need.

Savage Worlds with Interface Zero. Great start but had a random TPK (damage/soak) at session two. Players never wanted to play SW again.

Eretic! Burn! Burn! Burn! 🙃 :D:D:D

I don't use settings as published. I only cut & paste parts for me home-brew settings. Don't really care one way of another as long as there are cools ideas I can reuse with a bit of change. The only setting I ever cared about was the original Greyhawk because it was the default setting with...

A good decision. For the last 5 years we've played for about 3-4 hours (7-11pm). I feel like we are more focused with only 10 minutes of chitchat before and after the game. There are jokes of course but no major non-game discussions that last too long. This duration did not change with the use...

Some people want to eat only American yellow mustard all their lives. Other people want to try every kind of mustard produced on the planet. I don't understand why some people are bothered by what kind of mustard other people put in their dishes.

WoTC reports higher sales for 2019 and 2020. It can't be just canibalization of players from other games. There are a lot of new players in those numbers.

Not if the pool of buyers keeps growing at a faster rate.

Commercial art is a product. Movies get regularly remade for the next generation of 14-25 moviegoers. If you can get their parents to show up because of nostalgia even better ticket sales. It has to be different because kids don't want to see the 'mom&pop' version and the 'mom&pop' don't want to...

Really big ears (baron munchausen) so you can hear a whisper from afar!

Two magic sea shells.
