Amber Diceless Hillfolk or any similar highly Narrativist game with "plot tokens" / "plot coupons" (the system from Protocol Games comes to mind) (I dunno why DriveThru says "any system / agnostic", it has its own Hillfolk-ish system) Gumshoe when in "investigation" mode (arguably Gumshoe even...

The greatsword does so much "whoosh" damage that it damaged the pixie's fragile wings as it goes past. See, I can make up a fictional reason why the game element works, just as much as you can for the fireball. (Why should a fireball harm a pixie at all? The pixie can see it coming and fly out...

I would bet that is intentionally the vibe, here. Carr has been established as effete and bookish, while Dalris is tough and world-wise. I LOL'd so hard at this! The interior of Tikandia, the highlands, where the Kandian pilgrims normally come from? Maybe? Although as we're eventually to...

That doesn't have the word "miss" in it, so it's totally different. I'm... not entirely sarcastic, here.

I have watched a lot, and I mean a lot, of BG3 "blow up the world" videos... and that one was BY FAR the most glorious. So thank you, sincerely, for brightening my day.

In fairness, it is quite literally labeled as damage on a miss in 4e. Driving Attack You drive back your adversary with a hail of blows. Daily ✦ Invigorating, Martial, Weapon Standard Action Melee weapon Target: One creature Primary Attack: Strength vs. AC Hit: 2[W] + Strength...

Commentary: The Moonstar Tavern is just across the cobblestone street from the front entrance of Saven’s cathedral. I absolutely love that the den of sin is directly across the street from the house of God. (And yes, I know that happens in real life, too.) We “sip on some light wine” because...

127 The Moonstar Tavern is just across the cobblestone street from the front entrance of Saven’s cathedral. It’s the most popular inn for all the Tikandia pilgrims who come to worship at the ancient structure. We get a table near the window where we can keep an eye on the cathedral. [Woah...

And that's pretty much how Gygax describes them in AD&D, yet weirdly people continue to insist that HP = meat points, to this day.

What if it's candy shell, then milk chocolate, then more candy shell, then a center of oozy goo like Bubblicious gum? And more important -- which RGP does this describe?

Why wouldn't you? Wouldn't you want the cultural knowledge to be able to intelligently discuss the works that have influenced society? Whether it is "real" society or "game" society.

What if it’s a candy core coated with chocolate? An anti-M&M, if you will.

Apocalypse World 2nd Edition has entered the chat.

4e Stealth required an entire fan-made FAQ to make sense of. http://www.dyasdesigns.com/dragon_phoenix/The%20Rules%20Of%20Hidden%20Club%20%20Targeting%20things%20you%20can't%20see%20in%20D&D.%20_%20The%20Wizards%20Community.htm — But yeah, the Bloodied condition and few monster powers that...

My extremely battered copy of Warlock is somewhere around here, but the others went the way of all flesh, so…. I do agree that I’d love to see fancy hardcovers, like the Lone Wolf re-issues from a while ago.

Commentary: We see a high stone wall surrounding a full block of the city. Beyond stands the steeple of "the most ancient church devoted to the archcleric’s sect." Is there a reason Morris Simon doesn't simply write that it is the church of Blessed Dyan? That epithet and name have already been...

100 Dalris leads us through Saven [we DEFINITELY want to stay behind her, wink wink nudge nudge] "using shadowy alleys and shortcuts only a professional thief would know." Several times a shadow detaches itself from the surrounding shadows, only to fade back, shadow-like, into the shadows when...

His name is Tobias de Vantery Sounds French. Immediately suspect. (Just messing with you.) The alternate path where we mess with the not-Bedouin is quite jerktastic! It is only missing a scene where we kick their puppies.

It's live! http://kck.st/41vTqaJ (dibs on the Forest of Doom "Where I Play" in Story Hour) (totally joking, no-one can "dibs" stuff) (but I'll probably do it eventually)

We are the contraband. No one is supposed to leave Seagate Island... unless you're fishing, I guess?.... It's vague. (And I'm not being coy.) In theory there is a military blockade of... waves hands vaguely... all of Seagate Island? just the waters around Saven "for its protection"? The...
