In for Dust, just the PDF though, and I got to be the 200th pledge.

That DOES make me feel better. :)

Dammit, Egg! There goes my next paycheck! I dunno about Urban Shadows. I was super hyped for the original... and I've never used it. No-one wants to play. I love the idea, but I have enough games no-one else wants to play right now. But then I look at Three Step Plan and I want it... sigh...

Currently running four sessions a week. One Numenera, three D&D. The three D&D are related: the PCs of each group are all part of the same larger group in the same setting, and any changes to the world affect all three groups.

I play and enjoy Cypher. But when I want to attract players to my games, Not D&D has proven to be the biggest dealbreaker of them all. When I had an opening in my Numenera game on Roll20, I advertised for a month on Roll20, and ended up recruiting out of MCG's Discord. When I have an opening for...

I feel you. My kids are about to be 30 and 27. Still have the wife & most of the dice. I can still see my dice... but I can't carry all the gaming stuff anymore. I have a nice bag I make my son carry to games. :) On the TSR front, I wonder how much of TSR's behavior in the day was because of...

I'm.... really sorry to hear about your house and your dice?

My session yesterday... The crew are involved in the search for whatever is disappearing people in the city. They got involved because people started disappearing who were last seen at their circus and now they're suspects, but the truth it it's been happening for a while. Last night, they...

What I think you should do is... Seriously, though, I get this. I have both fallen into the trap of offering unasked for advice and suffered the well-meaning people who offered unasked for advice. I think it's universal and there is no escape. At least online, I can simply not respond and...

I use it as GM instead. Players won't run? Well, last night, when they surprised the bad thing in the middle of doing a bad thing, it ran away! Now, that was how the encounter was planned, and if the party hadn't split, they might have intercepted the bad thing. But they were split. They stopped...

$20?! Deluxe Hardcover?! SOLD! Now... what's it about? Superpowered Ocean's Eleven? (Sinatra, not Clooney).

I have had players do this in several games. Most often just to have a short break, a couple of times because a player asked if they could take over for a story. These were players already in the game, so they knew the lore. I just let them take over with the promise they would not overwrite or...

You earned it! All good points. And like I said I wasn't arguing against it. More... noting that some people like fewer steps. Personally, I like being sure you have my address right, especially since I used to ship packages to my work address and then my work address burned down. It was good to...

Never heard of him before, but bought the game just now. Robert, have an awesome exit.

Thank the gods. My wallet is safe this week. (Slightly tempted by Nightfell, but I know I'd never run the setting, and I have enough "just for reading" books right now.)

First, I love that one of the game's writers comes in here to speak intelligently and reasonably about the game. If I wasn't already a fan, I'd be on the website, giving the products a look, just for the responsiveness. One question about your 60 second synopsis... You leave off discussion of...

I Kickstarted this, and enjoyed reading Arcana of the Ancients. I've only glance through Beneath the Monolith so far, not needing the setting stuff, but... When I first ran Numenera, I envisioned a world of magic, wonder, and spirits, which would slowly reveal to be Clarke's "Sufficiently...

I will have to praise the stuff I enjoy more often.

He wasn't trying to redeem a specific Yuan-Ti. He was arguing about how people shouldn't just assume a couple hundred magically disguised Yuan-Ti in the city necessarily meant something was wrong. :p Yeah, if a character was defending a specific Yuan-Ti - which has happened - that is a...

I had a player literally roll a die when it was her character's turn to take watch, and then tell me "During my watch I randomly decide to kill everyone else in their sleep." I was all. "Really?" She was all, "Yes. I rolled for it." So I said, "Everyone, the next morning you find X's...
