I'm dying to know: does the Haxtec Four Panel Screen support the Futhark Ledges? After I realized what the ledges were (thanks, aco175), I thought, "but my GM screen can barely hold up against a sneeze."

It's not the blue-trenchcoat elf in the tavern that you need to worry about. It's this guy:

Wait . . . EN Publishing had guns on display? Hope you had a license for that, @Morrus !

Don't be surprised if your PCs tie the captain of the guard to the front of their wagon and tug on his hair whenever they need a spell cast.

TL;DW the GMG is chock-full of tools for GMs to use, and improvising seems to mean rolling on random-result tables.

What didn't you like about Hope/Fear (besides the Star Warsy connotation)? Do those bennies pile up, or do they get used as fast as they come in?

1) The Great d20 is not pleased. Although, the d12 is an older god (born 12/12/1212). 2) The Daggerheart Basics video makes the game look like more of an MMHRPG than TTRPG. (In Matt Mercer's Hand) 3) Thank the gods it's not another 5RD product. And the OP is missing a couple of articles.

Wait. Who said this dinosaur is incapable of using idioms? This changes everything. I say let him in the group.

What if the question is really, "I think I'm killing my PCs too often. How often do your PCs die, so I can gauge myself?" That would, unfortunately, change my answer from "multiple times per level." I guess I'd go with "once every 4-5 levels," because I expect some heads to roll, but not so...

@TheAlkaizer nailed it, but . . . I'm going to need info on how to do this myself. This is why "I'm going to run a D&D game, who wants to play" isn't the safest announcement. "I'm going to run a King Arthur-style adventure with D&D" will nip those dinosaur-ideas in the bud. Risky. It's a...

Our OP doesn't clarify the titular question much, except to add that it's related to challenge and deadliness of a campaign. So what we have is . . . what we have (or what I've bothered to dig up from the thread). I guess it boils down to "how often" should PCs die? The "in 5e" part might be...

PC deaths should be based on bad luck and bad decisions, not character level. So I picked "multiple per character level," guessing that's how often some PCs can make bad decisions.

Since you're designing, I'll assume you're not afraid of tinkering. You could use Modos RPG's combat module for band (or smaller) conflict just as easily as individual hero combat. Most of the conversions would just be renaming, like this: Standard Name Modified Name Note Character Unit...

Yeah, it looks like an Achievement to me!

Welcome, stranger! "Even Tolkien?" Anyway, I'm with you on the green-skins being comical. Congrats. Your ilk are here as well 🤓 Amen. Fare thee well.

This is brilliant. Cocaine instead of adrenaline. This, not so much. The frontline is a great place to lose the smartest Kafers. How about the frontline commanders, instead? . . . but this isn't far from human truth. Hence the brilliance. If Kafers somehow survive the first portion of the...

What's the question here? How do you say a group is warlike without making it a genetic thing? Are you using "species" the D&D way or the normal human way? The old-fashioned "warlike orcs" never made much sense to me anyway. The group that lives by constant fighting gets overrun by the...

I don't know why this sent my brain spinning; I'm sure I've heard it before. Leader is a great name for a fantasy archetype. Communication, buffs (like motivation), mobility - great features for a "leader" that not all of the other types would have. I guess popular fiction just makes the...

Always? I know at least one game that allows static results on dice. When that happens, the combat focus moves squarely from luck to tactics Sure, that might not work for you. But there's an entire video game genre (Souls-like) that expects PCs to live to fight another day. So there are...

I'd buy that for a dollar! And I'm suddenly seeing my attraction to my animal-head helmet!
