It depends. It's similar to putting your laptop into "sleep" mode, where there's a small drain to keep the electronics going, though obviously much, much less than driving. That will vary from car make to car make. The bigger variable is the temperature outside, as most cars maintain battery...

An amusing word choice, especially given: :D

These were quick experiments so I haven't done any touch up work on them, but they're pretty good starts. :) And I do like the weapon that got generated in the first one.

While we bounced from FFG's SW ruleset, this is one thing that I really dug from it. Especially if one makes the skill test to determine the slots based on awareness and tactical skill. I also enjoy Balsera-Style initiative (aka Elective Action Order aka popcorn initiative) for the tactical...

Haha, well, I might have gone geekily overboard in my explanation/details (as I am wont to do :P). Mostly it could be this: Come home, plug in car like I plug in my phone. The car already comes set by default to charge to 80%. Once per week when I do my groceries, plug it into the...

Oh yes! Subsidize the building of a new 300kph capable set of tracks from Windsor to Quebec City. Get some really sweet EMUs to run on it. Slab Eberron branding all over it. Call it the lightning rail. Win win! :D Might take a bit longer to build than just this year though... get it ready...

From what I understand, for Li-Ion batteries (and my laptop does this as well) it's best to keep the state of charge between 30% and 80% for maximum longevity. Also slower charging is better than faster charging (though for EVs that's more the diff between 240v/Level 2 and 480v/Level 3...

re: costs, another flip in the mind to do with EVs is that with an EV you're kind of buying up front some of the items you would parcel out later with an ICE. So even though the initial price is higher, it evens out or you even come ahead in the long run. For ex, the average maintenance cost...

This is one of the interesting little flips in the mind to do with an EV: to think of them more like your phone. We don't worry that we have to go somewhere and sit for two hours while our phones charge, because electricity is everywhere. If we need to plug in, we can. Natch, EV charging...

Very much this. I would much prefer "Ranger" be a theme or profession or background or something similar overlaid on other classes such that the wilderness protectors, or guerillas, or band of merry men, could all be a diverse group of wilderness-y capable folk. The main archtypes that I see a...

Thanks a tonne!

Totally, 'taurs of all kinds need to start posting more selfies! ;) I've recently started playing around a bit with SD locally and created one half decent 'taur thus far (below, as an experiment, still needs work to finish), but I'm really intrigued to give it more attention both with some...

Wait, they left Eldritch Smite as a free/no action? Do Warlocks gain the same spell level/uses as they did in 5e14? If so, compared to a 7th level pally, a 1/6 Fighter/Warlock could deal an additional 10d8 damage in a single round vs the Paladin's extra 3d8. And with slots recovering in a...

"A centaur adventurer in the style of a D&D character rough sketch" Ignore that it did not, in fact, generate a centaur. Dall-e is not fabulous at 'taurs. :P But "D&D rough character sketch" does seem to be pretty consistent in what it creates style wise, and I concur, it's a nice one (these...
