    [EXCLUSIVE] A Look At The Planet Castrovel From The Upcoming Starfinder RPG

    Still not sure about the background story of losing all the history (too contrived) but I sure like the art.

    To Slay a Dragon/To stake a Vampire - will there be a 3rd part?

    There was talk on R20 that those adventures would get a third part, something to do with devils. As we've finally finished (with several added stories which just happened) TSaD and will probably be through TSaV much quicker, I'd like to be able to make plans for the group.

    Consequence and Reward in RPGs

    Rewards come from avoiding bad consequences and are thus a consequence of some situations. No risk no fun.

    Can you find a GM when you need one?

    That's the play style I used to have probs finding players for. Luckily, by now there are several players and even an other GM who don't mind going without battles for ages and only roll when it is fun to do so.

    Pathfinder 1E Returning to D&D 3.75 er I mean Pathfinder

    Haven't added it to all of my groups yet, but basically, ADV and DisADV replace many of the conditions where you would otherwise subtract or add, like wearing armor/fighting with weapons you aren't proficient with, or equipment you have which often doesn't even have any bonus specified. It also...

    Who gets to add new players to the group?

    At the game store, for the one shots, anyone can bring anyone, as long as there are no more than 7 people. At someone's house or in a campaign, the whole group has to be ok with it,especially the host, but anyone can suggest a player. Online, new prospective players, no matter who suggested them...

    Why does fantasy dominate RPGs?

    I think it is more that with SciFi, most people know and want to play the big stuff Star Wars, Star Trek, maybe Babylon 5 or Dr. Who. Finding a group for other things is much more tricky, as "normal" casual players want to play what they saw on TV. In fantasy, no matter what fantasy world I give...

    Pathfinder 1E Returning to D&D 3.75 er I mean Pathfinder

    Yeah welcome back to the more creative game. :cool: You can cut down on the admin nightmare by making up lots of stuff about NPCs and monsters as you go along, even things not in the rules. That way, you can be sure your players can't look up monsters either, which, in times of the internet, is...

    Meet a Professional Game Master

    Believe me, I can't perform any kind of music anymore. My voice sounds like... well it's been described a choir of burning goblins, screeching gremlins, rabid hyena, burglar alarm, torture device etc and the neighbors asked me kindly once not to sing while they had prospective buyers for their...

    New GM with new players. Best adventure?

    Depending on their age, they could also try out kid friendly online games.

    Meet a Professional Game Master

    Heh in my case, Germans learn English as a byproduct of playing non-German games, as I refuse to deal with the bad translations available (exception, Shadowrun, the German material is superb). As a result my young players usually do very well in English (and often science/history classes) due to...

    New GM with new players. Best adventure?

    Sure you can. You can even use campaigns made for different games altogether. The trick is to estimate opponents, as in how would they look in your rule set, instead of rewriting it. Which campaign to use partly depends on what your players would prefer. You already got a lot of good...

    Meet a Professional Game Master

    I have at least one game running per day, usually 2 and Fridays even 3. Granted, I can only do that because I'm disabled and unable to work and need something to do to not be depressed. But I reckon more people would GM if there would not be all those high standards nowadays, thanks to the...

    Can you find a GM when you need one?

    Does that end in sessions where everyone takes turns during the session? Because that's happened here lately and it was hilarious.

    I Discovored D&D Later In Life Than I Would Have Liked And I Worry That....

    My oldest female player died last year at 96 and the slightly older brother is still going strong.
