If I am understanding the above correctly, that's the way I'd like my table to play. I want drama at my table so I take the written adventure as a basis to which add my own ideas, players input and expectations, and memorable (hope so) npcs for me to portray, while trying to mantain the...

Yes, that is a possibility. But I would never let a silent check substitute a declaration in plain language. No, I personally would not ask for a CHA check in that situation.

Yeah, I mean, I expect both sides to agree that a solution, or plan, is plausible before executing it, or at the very least the Gm to give Players time to react to new, unforeseen obstacles before deploying them on the Pcs, otherwise, yes it is black box territory

I'm looking at it from an OS(R) perspective. So no skill challenges, nor aw moves of any sort. I'd say it depends on the plan, requiring negotiations between Gm/Players, maybe rolls, spell casting, combat, whatever is needed. Then present themselves in front of the guards as white robed...

The conclusion you arrive to is quite surprising. I would say the opposite is true. A leader needs nuances, motivations, needs, for skilled play to occur. I'm currently running Lost Caverns of Tsojcants with OSE (B/X d&d) rulesets. The vast wilderness part before the actual caverns really...

I think you are proceeding backwards in your example. First the players should understand why the guards are not letting people in. Then maybe find out who/what kind of people would be welcomed in. Then formulate a plan accordingly and execute it. Fictional basis is key IMO, as you...

I'm using mainly demigods/demons/ascended-saints in my campaign, which can have a phisical presence and an active role in shaping the savage lands and human realms.

Gnolls, dragon, rockslide, druidic tornado

@Fenris-77 I'm going to have a look at those Vagabonds' supplements. Thanks for the tip

Yes, please, link it . BH2e was a candidate to run Lost caverns but I didn't have time to learn it and convert stuff. Vagabonds looks interesting for a more characters centered game. Maybe a fast and loose fill-in game when just a couple of my Players can show up. What are its strong points...

Really curious about WotA after quickly googling it. Does it use a mix of Fate Core and Accelarated? How crunchy is it?

I'd like to read your considerations on these games. Have you already written about it somewhere?

Playing Zweihander... But I miss WFRP2e. (Running Lost caverns of Tsojcant with OSE, both modified and houseruled)

@prabe, partially. I see that's how you prep the campaign. I meant how's the mood of play: relaxed, fast&furious, occasionally dramatic, lots of combat or roleplay? More Gm exposition or Players talking at the table? More challenge oriented or directed by the whims of the party or focused...
