Right? I grew up in a Kentucky mountain town and I avoid the stuff as best as I can (moonshine), though I had it enough earlier on to know I don't want it now. As far as tea and spirits, I've not once ever tried that - now you've got me curious.

Similar experience here. My first full-sized gaming group had three ladies in it; this wasn't the 80s, and instead the very early 90s, but similar experience, and they weren't offended - they found the art amusing, if it warranted any attention at all, which was the most common reaction. They...

I wouldn't know honestly how many really has an effect on me. For many reasons, I never partake of excess - but I've never felt it affect me after one or two. Interesting you'd consider them stronger than a higher proof beer though, I'll keep that in mind for inquiring friends, however. I...

The Last Unicorn--20 The Hobbit--15 The Lord of the Rings--11 Princess Mononoke--19 Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind--19 Spirited Away--19 The Secret of NIMH--20 Kubo and the Two Strings--19+1=20 Howl's Moving Castle--8-2=6 The Dark Crystal--20 The hard part was selecting one to downvote -...

I've primarily DMed a whopping 90% of my RPG gaming experiences, but the remaining time I've gotten to be a player has been wholly positive with a few exceptions, and in those exceptions I've suffered through the glaring issues, politely brought them up after the session in a private encounter...

Late to the party I see, an interesting final selection. Alexander, Lloyd 8 Jemisin, N.K. 7 LeGuin, Ursula 23-2 = 21 McKillip, Patricia 8 Pratchett, Terry 18+1 = 19 Wolfe, Gene 6 This late in the game I'm just voting for my second favorite from the original list, but only by a fragment.

Another great look into what's to come! Very much looking forward to this book and if they can get all this world's balance and information into a single setting sourcebook, along with the monsters and options they're offering.

I'll consider that a compliment sir, and say thank you! I'm not a fan of beer, more specifically, so I get those nifty flavored drinks; Mike's Hard Lemonade, Smirnoff Ice, etc, and they have about as much alcohol as kid's grape juice past its expiration date, so yeah - mild alcoholic beverage...

I always have a single drink with my longer-hour gaming sessions - a single mild alcoholic beverage. It's a tradition that dates back quite a while because I can't stand lying to my friends, and have a hard time outright saying no, even if they do something I consider rude. It started when a...

So not too far a stretch to read into - thank you!

I'm actually quite fond of the first two iterations of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, which of course uses percentile in a similar way as indicated here, armor as absorb, roll to parry, etc - with a few other detailed mechanisms where needed here and there. If you know, how similar would you say...

Good advice for the specifics abounds in previous replies, so I won't touch on that topic. Instead, I'll touch on the things you've mentioned as your hesitations and how much you enjoy playing - the things you believe you'll miss as a Dungeon Master. Once you delve into your first campaign, or...

This. The nurse with no bedside manner whatsoever is actually a fellow adventurer trying to infiltrate the office and steal something, and just happens to be the brute force of the group and is terrible at the subterfuge. I too do these things to occupy myself in the numb reality away from the...

I myself use Maptools because I like doing the coding myself; house rules, custom systems, and the fact I use it for my home games and I don't need all the automation; it's basically a tabletop projector for us. The sheer power to do what I want when I need it makes it the only capable VTT...

As I continued to read the thread throughout the morning/afternoon, I was seeing that referenced in many of the posts. I'm having a hard time digesting someone with that much invested in the company would have screwed up that badly - banning someone without any concrete evidence when it's not...

The big uproar I saw was over someone being falsely banned and the mod team of /r/Roll20 not even offering an apology - big PR nightmare going on. A paid subscriber of Roll20, for 5 years, was actually quite polite and adequate in his approach in trying to get it all sorted out, and he was...

I played a game with the basic rules pdf a while back, and love the feel of it. They worked the 5E rules into scifi pretty well.

Just went and gave that a look. I poked around with Roll20 a while back, but I've always been more of a Maptools user myself. Far more freedom in the tool, but I can say for sure I'll never use Roll20 now haha. Thanks for pointing that out, GreyLord

Congratulations on the amazingly fast funding of this, Morrus - that was truly impressive to behold!

I'll toss in a recommendation for Mythic D6. This was a kickstarter I backed that delivered amazingly! https://kheperapublishing.com/khepera-publishing-home/mythic-d6/ I would call it 'rules-light', in that there's really only a few mechanics to grasp, and a ton of customization for your...
