I forgot that I’d need to add details before I start weathering. Other than the base, you could call this done but I’d like to weather it a bit more. This is the point of the project I’m afraid of ruining by doing more. i.e. Should I quit while I’m ahead?

The salt has dried and this is what you end up with. I should have said I painted the red layer using my airbrush. You might be able to use a regular brush if you’re careful though. One thoroughly dry, I waited an hour, I took an old brush and started knocking off the salt. Had I thought...

My name is Shepherd, and this is my favorite post on the Citadel. I think you hit the nail on the head when it comes to the Ranger. Who needs them? In a game designed with niches in mind, they don't fill a particularly useful one. Hardly anyone is playing at Tier 3.

I suppose it's technically true the DM could restrict any class they want. From a practical point of view, how easy would it be for such a DM to find enough players for a campaign? I don't think it's unreasonable for anyone to show up to a D&D campaign with the expectation the base classes in...

Here’s a trick I picked up from a modeler who works on plastic cars when he wants a rusted effect. This is a Fallout miniature, a robot Nuka Cola mascot, I start by giving it a base coat of metal. For the next step, it’s important you give the paint a little time to cure. I waited two hours...

There are only three classes necessary: The Fighting Man, Magic User, and Cleric. Everything else is superfluous.

I try to avoid house rules where possible even if I think a rule is silly. For Savage Worlds, I instituted a house rule combining Swimming, Climbing, and Throwing skills into the singular Athletics skill long before it became the official. SW skills are supposed to be very broad, and people...

For 5th Part Deux: Electric Boogaloo, I use critical rolls as written. If you roll a 20 during a fight you score a critical hit. Roll double your damage dice and let's get on with the show! I natural 20 rolled on a skill check is not an automatic success nor is rolling a 1 a critical...

Six criticals in one encounter!

Did it have a bad reputation? This is a game I remember seeing at the game store but my friends and I never really gave it more than a cursory glance.

Wizards of the Coast was a financially successful company flush with cash allowing them to purchase TSR lock, stock, and barrel. TSR is no more. It has ceased to be. It is bereft of life. It rests in peace. It is an ex-company. It's true that D&D the game still exists, but the company Gary...

White Wolf isn't really back. This is just a rebrand. Nothing to get excited about.

Having been defunct since 1997, the business Gary started, TSR, does not exist. TSR was wholly consumed by Wizards of the Coast and only exists as a memory. I know I've been pretty critical of Gary in this thread, but I don't think he was just another guy. I know I couldn't have accomplished...
