    [Dread] Jenga beat up my dice! My results from the indie horror RPG.

    How well does the game work with a smaller group playing? I've bought the book and am waiting as patiently as I can for it to arrive, but my playing group is generally only 3 to 4 players plus myself GMing.

    So, who got Delta Green d20?

    I've had DG: Countdown for years now, but never had the original DG book. Overall I agree with many of the other comments about it. Cool as it is, it really is dated to the 90s. The editing is the other thing that makes me chuckle. Somewhere in there is a blurb about a book for the Transcendent...

    When goblins are cool!

    My group got schooled in Drakthar's Way. I think it took them something like 4 forays into the dungeon before they finally killed off Drakthar, with a total of 2 characters killed (both NPCs). It was a fun little section, but ground on a little too long for them. The second encounter in Chapter...

    Latest purchases

    My recent acquisitions are: Complete Champion: So far I'm liking the afflilations rules for churches, nice to see some cross-book support. Delta Green d20: Maybe a bit dated (and some of the editing makes me chuckle), but it's a classic damnit! Dread: Still waiting for this to arrive, but I...

    Carrying Capacity for Containers

    Not that I'm aware of, but I believe the rule of thumb is something like 10 lbs. per cubic foot.

    Oots #463

    I'm not sure why, but the last three panels remind me of a Calvin & Hobbes strip.

    Best horror RPG, bar none!

    Okay I just ordered this. Looking forward to seeing it when it finally arrives. So aside from the book, I just need the Jenga game?

    Improved Trip & TWF

    Interesting... Well this will make my player happy, we've been debating the point for awhile. (I'm not sure I entirely agree, but I can see the logic in it). Anyone see any balance problems with allowing a melee attack made with a different weapon on Improved Trips? Thanks!

    Improved Trip & TWF

    Hmmm... I've always figured that you had to use the "same attack" for your free attack on an opponent that you've tripped. Since he can't trip with a longsword (as it's not a tripping weapon), he can't use the free attack to stab the prone opponent with his longsword. Am I totally...

    Improved Trip & TWF

    Good evening everyone! I have a rules question that I'd like some input on. One of the player characters in my campaign is a rogue/fighter with the Improved Trip Feat and the Two-Weapon Fighting Feat. This character usually uses a Longsword/Shortsword in combat. One of the questions that...

    How thick does plexiglass/acrylic need to be?

    You might also check out using Melamine (I think that's what it's called). I bought a 4x8 Sheet for about $35.00 CAD, scored a one inch grid on it using a carpet knife and a T square and it's worked great with dry-erase for two years now.

    Strength Check DCs

    Is it just me or does it seem like Strength check DCs are way too high? I'm not sure if I'm handling things correctly, but a lot of adventures call for Strength checks that are impossible to make. As an example, something like a stone door that is stuck has a Strength DC of 28 to open. By my...

    Does Punishing Stance [BO9S] work in a grapple to do damage?

    I'm of the opinion that grappling is different from attacking, so by default would say that Punishing Stance does not add to damage in a grapple. Mechanically, I believe the attack action and the grapple action are two seperate things. That said, I'm not sure how I would rule it if a character...

    Doctor Who getting canceled

    From what I've read (and apparently that's not alot), RTD believes that space stories aren't popular - and they are expensive to make. I find it a bit strange because my favorite episodes all tend to be space episodes (Impossible Planet/Satan Pit/42). Of course I could just be reading the wrong...
