Tater Tots (in case any one would find it interesting!)

I'm not versed with Superman, but my casual impression was that he can with the Fortress, do some scientific stuff that is advanced in terms of technology, but that's mostly due to access or knowledge he may have? But Luthor's intelligence is a different magnitude; he accomplishes stuff with...

Like most series or movies where the audience is steeped in a place, or have expertise in a career field they then see depicted, often this comes up as criticism; it's valid. When the first season of The Walking Dead came out, it was a big topic.

I have read this elsewhere, but maybe someone who saw the film recently (or more than once) can help. Early in the film, as Malik went to help Superman up out of the crater in the street, did he ask a relative to keep an eye on the food cart? Second, when Luthor was threatening Malik, did...

I'm ecstatic that I can say I've at least heard one or two of the nominations in each of categories!

Games adjacent to Triangle Agency that just came to mind are ofc the older Delta Green, but also The Laundry!

Re: Science-y stuff in super hero films; this one is a classic:

I've not followed Superman stories incredibly closely, but can understand people questioning this change. There was a bit of a reaction to this in the theater I was in. I feel at least for this film; it highlighted Clark's feelings over "what should I be doing in light of this?" part of the...

You may know, but an eraser does remove dry erase marker from your map, in case that happens! (I use a combination of Chessex and small dry erase boards. I ended up labeling the container I put dry erase markers in as a check to avoid that.)

As an action summer movie, it was entertaining! Most of the audience in my showing were older than I was (so definitely had seen the 1978 movie). It could've benefited possibly from a slightly longer run time, or perhaps a bit more attention to Clark's every day with the cast at the Daily...

In the moment what you decided I think was fine! Deliberating now, I feel like if it were me, I would ask the player to make an Athletics or maybe a Dexterity check of some kind vs. an attack roll, to touch. The dragon may not be purposefully avoiding the character, or is distracted by what the...

Coming from a different design space: Is your game an anime fantasy? Having someone destroy an opponent's plate armor with punches would be valid. Is your game attempting to capture a sense of 15th century violence in Europe? In D&D, it's possible to meaningfully injure an opponent donned in...

One recent example, released in January, 2025. While pinball enthusiasts have expressed legitimate criticisms, it seems like it's been well received and mentioned in the top 100 for the time being. The Tyrant's Eye

For running a new system, compliment for accomplishing as much as you did!

My watched list: Phase 1-3: I think I watched everything except for the 1st Captain America film Phase 4: Shang Chi, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, WandaVision, Loki (1st Season), Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, Guardians Holiday Special Phase 5: Loki (2nd Season), Daredevil: Born Again (1st Season)...

-doffs scarf- Let's GO!

Here's a prep page for a session that happened last month that I felt good about. It's normally in two columns. This was for a 2.5 hour session, if I remember correctly. Flick was an improv NPC I had to make up on the spot in the last session; the details you see are what spilled out just from...

Appreciate the shares; besides the topic, am paying attention especially to what writing implements ppl are using, as well as what they're choosing to write on!

I feel this is where intentions comes into play (and part of the reason why OP question would be best answered by designers). For a table that is really versed in D&D-style games or fiction first/improv games (e.g. PbtA or the like), Daggerheart may not be a good fit; there will be steps that...

This feels like a good question designers would be suited to answer. If we take combat as one part of a game... I don't like combat that lasts three hours of my gaming time, either as a table runner or a player. Most everyone is familiar with combat as it is run in different iterations of D&D...
