    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    That's really interesting. I never would have guessed. Episode 4 had really nice stunt work but also some tender moments between the Mandalorian and the widow. Kudos to them on making it work.

    D&D General I'm reading the Forgotten Realms Novels- #202 The Howling Delve by Jaleigh Johnson (Dungeons 2)

    Compared to Wulfgar's PTSD from his time in the abyss, his failed relationships, his hitting rock bottom, coming back from it, finding a family, and losing it again I just couldn't find Drizzt's own struggles to be that interesting.

    Cubicle 7 No Longer Producing The One Ring and Adventures in Middle Earth

    I freely admit that I bought AiME because I could easily transition my 5e players without them having to learn a new system. But I was absolutely still able to play a game were miles were miles and Journeys took a toll on the characters, where cultural prejudices could be overcome to forge...

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    It's quite possible that this species has a vastly different aging process than humans. I doubt they have larval states and metamorphosis or anything like that but it could be that they have a slow rate of growth for a long time fallowed by a puberty like state were they mature very quickly.

    Class Features UA Ranger: Multiclass Goodness

    I have an idea, but there is a lot of competition for bonus actions. Also it's Super MAD. I'm thinking Rune Knight as a base with the Unarmed Fighting style. Picking up Tireless, Dueling Fighting Style, and additional attack in the first round of combat (which gets doubled on action surge) with...

    Black Widow teaser

    Is there some kind of "extra! extra! read all about it" soul stone newspaper out there? The amount of people who know about the stones is few. The amount of people who know the soul stones location is even fewer. The amount of people who know about it's cost? even fewer. That we know of it's...

    Pregnancy and newborns...

    This feels like a DM calling for a roll on a whim without thinking through the consequences. Which happens to us all from time to time. And this highlights why I dislike roll for everything mentality. I only want a roll if something is uncertain and the outcome pass or fail progresses the...

    Black Widow teaser

    But who, besides the Avengers would ever even consider putting it back. These are WMDs on a scale otherwise unknown. Anyone one who gets the soul stone likely wants absolute power for themselves, or is enacting a grand design like Thanos himself and still wouldn't want to put it back. Heck if...

    Black Widow teaser

    Right but they can have that without the joke in the trailer or indeed in the movie. Hell they could have one of them look at the guy who gained weight and say "Yeah, we're all getting older"

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    I do think that episode 4 could have been a little... tighter or maybe more polished. I'm struggling to put my finger on it. Still I liked more than I disliked.

    Yup that was my point. That it was, like you said, inferior.

    The Mandalorian makes me want to play Star Wars again

    I don't have any Star wars TTRPG stuff, but I did go install Jedi Knight 2 Jedi Outcast and 3 Jedi Academy so I can go around blasting through stormtroopers, trandoshans, grans, rodians, weequays etc. It didn't take much work to get it looking pretty good on a modern system, or to find a...

    Black Widow teaser

    I very much wonder how it shook out when Captain America returned the Soul Stone to Vormir. Do the rules of a soul for a soul work both ways? I'm hoping for an end credits scene that resolves that question. But I'm not holding my breath or anything.

    That some really decent folks here and elsewhere are willing to help a person in need.

    Zak Smith is suing his accusers

    Oh yes. That is a completely valid caveat. Edit: Also the problems for women, which are already horrifying, are far worse for women of color too.

    Zak Smith is suing his accusers

    (continuing my analogy from earlier) Do what any small business that gets a undeserved bad review does. Choose to make your brand above reproach. Make your interactions with costumers, vendors, partners, peers as honest, transparent, and pleasant as possible so that if your conduct is called...

    The mandalorian [Spoilers]

    They've managed to have the Mandalorian believably knocked around every episode and believably destroy groups of multiple opponents every episode. It's an effective formula for keeping me interested in the fight scenes. Cara Dune gave us the most backstory to what's happening post empire that...

    Zak Smith is suing his accusers

    I assume it was to highlight Morrus' reply to my pointedly hilarious post. Or a mistyped reply. I'm sure one of these options is statistically more likely to be true.

    Zak Smith is suing his accusers

    I was going to give a business a bad review on Yelp once, but then I remembered that I can't prove their service was bad in a court of law, so I didn't. SMH
