Hey now, it's not always like that. I remember some things my GM has put into our campaigns, like this for example.
I'm trying to keep from adding too much heavily-researched detail unless it seems necessary. So I won't feel shortchanged if the players don't explicitly notice it.
I started out writing a simple outline for a SF campaign, several thousand words later I find myself designing an access control system. :oops:
@Woundweaver If I start asking you questions about hospital IT infrastructure, please slap me.
Personally, I take the descriptor rules as more guidelines than actual rules. My current character started with the Deadeye trait, but I didn't think that was very relevant to his overall character so I omitted it from the descriptor at first. Now the character is much better at archery so I put...
Rea... oh.
Hasslefree Miniatures has a lot of modern minis. It's hard to say which of them have specifically 70's clothing, but here's one that is pretty clear: Hasslefree Miniatures - Shop - Modern & Post-Apoc - Modern Adventurers - Destiny (HFA074)
When that happens to me, I send myself an email from my phone - just a short sentence, or even a single word, to remind me of the idea when I have time to write it down properly.
But those usages have nothing to do with fey or a special form of iron.
Grose's definition of "cold iron" is "A sword, or any other weapon for cutting or
stabbing." An ordinary steel blade, in other words.
Kipling uses variations on the phrase "But Iron — Cold Iron — is master of them all"...
Their Warhammer Underworlds boxes are a good deal. Unfortunately they seem to have discontinued the "Sepulchral Guard" which was an excellent box of skellies.
Of course, what self-respecting dwarf would use such a primitive weapon? :D
I had the same problem with my current druid character - I wanted an elf with a staff who wasn't wearing wizard robes. No such thing, apparently, so I too went to HeroForge.
Must be a recent addition, it wasn't there the last time I looked at the errata.
I still have a question about this - the Fey traits say that "Fey not native to the real world are vunlerable (1d6) to cold iron", but the errata says that Fey PCs are vulnerable to cold iron - even though they are...
It depends what game we're playing. For D&D/Pathfinder we use minis on a battlemat or dungeon tiles. We have lots of the pre-painted minis from the D&D minis game, but that doesn't mean we always have exactly the correct ones. Any BBEG is likely to be represented by the Aspect of Orcus. :D
For...
Don't say that! The starting premise of the campaign I'm working on is that a bunch of people are fleeing a damaged Earth to an exoplanet that will probably need a bit of work.
