    What a terrible loss! A true pillar and icon of our hobby 😢 I hope History is kind and remembers her alongside the other founders of our hobby. It's what she deserves. She was truly one of the great ones, a most-influential figure.

    Hmm... I think Victories are nice to have but not game-breaking. Also, considering that the Director (aka GM) is the one who decides whether the encounter was worth a Victory or not, it looks hard to game that part of the system.

    In the case of Rage it's both. Some abilities require you to have a certain amount of Rage—e.g. you need to have 3 Rage to get the damage reduction—while others ask you to spend Rage to use them, so it's an interesting push and pull mechanic IMO. Kits are more equipment/customization packs...

    MCDM Patreon Playtest Packet 1 is out.

    Hi! We played another session yesterday. This time was even better than the last! Since we now knew the mechanics better, the combat was incredibly fluid and very dramatic. The way I'd describe it is a constant up and down, like a roller-coaster. This time we fought no minions and 5 skeleton...

    Yes and no. It's a healer, it has a clear connection to higher power that grants them resources through prayer, but they feel a lot more like a Paladin right now, or a Cleric from 1e, IMO.

    Sorry for the late reply, but I hadn't checked this. The Conduit's two heroic resources are Virtue and Wrath and you obtain them by using your Signature Abilities, which are attacks that also allow you to roll on a prayer table and that determines how many of each you obtain. There's a generic...

    MCDM Patreon Playtest Packet 1 is out.

    A friend of mine is a backer and ran an improvised encounter for myself and some friends last night. Since there were only three players I roleplayed two characters: the Human Conduit (Cleric/Mystic equivalent) and High Elf Talent (Psionic caster). We fought a dozen zombie minions, two...

    Level Up (A5E) Is there an official Flameskull statblock?

    Sorry for the newb question, but I couldn't find if there's any official Flameskull statblock (or equivalent) in A5e.tools or the Monstrous Menagerie. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks a lot in advance!

    The OGL -- Just What's Going On?

    They didn't play PF1 on stream on C1. The very first stream was already with all the PCs converted to 5e 😉

    Blade Runner rpg - having trouble getting sucked in

    At least as far as I've read, if you don't rest enough (days are divided in 4 shifts and you need to dedicate at least 1 shift to relax in some fashion), you cannot get rid of stress and start adding more stress (1 per shift without rest). In the case of going too far out of the job, you need...

    Blade Runner rpg - having trouble getting sucked in

    I just received my book and starter set and, after reading all the intro material plus character creation rules in the Core Rulebook, I have to say that I'm deeply satisfied with the game so far. And yes: this is pretty much a game about playing cops, but I don't feel like it's copaganda. Quite...

    Level Up (A5E) A5E Arcanaloth equivalent?

    Thanks so much! I don't have any real preference regarding spells and I definitely love the signature spells as actions, so I'll be happy to see that 😊

    Level Up (A5E) A5E Arcanaloth equivalent?

    Yeah, sure. Maybe someone else can use it then in their own games 😊
