That's kind of my concern, actually -- that this new setting will be a little too similar to Dark Sun.

Looks like you guys hit the $7k stretch goal! :) I'm actually already a backer of the fantasy soundscapes Kickstarter, but I haven't backed this one yet. I generally prefer digital formats, and I'm already a Gold Lifer. However, I know some of my players have backed it, so I'm going to discuss...

That's an awesome idea. When BIG SPOILERY EVENT happens later in the campaign, maybe I'll ask my players if they want to switch to 13th Age. The 13 True Ways supplement should be out by then.

:D They have some suspicions. In the post above where I mentioned my alternate lyrics for Working-Class Hero, I was actually performing each line as Rackus, guitar in hand. We'd talk/RP for a while, then I'd do a new line. Once we had a fourth line, I did the whole stanza. So I think they do...

I have a stealthy-as-hell Rogue|Warlock hybrid multiclassed into Assassin that I'd love to see played out to epic. Combining Cunning Sneak with Shadow Walk allows him to make a Stealth check to hide anytime he moves 3 or more squares from where he started, and I've been adding encounter...

Nice. :D I'm thinking the kickoff concert of Rackus' Jailbreak Tour will be huge, just because of the pent-up demand for his performances while he was in prison. And since my players and I are getting together for a week of riverside seclusion in early August and I know one of them is bringing...

Pardwright Museum After meeting up again, the constables headed to Pardwright to talk to Hans Weber. He was very interested to hear about their trip to the Ziggurat of Apet, although they did leave out some details -- like how they set off every trap in the place, and how it got flooded and is...

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of 13th Age, not Dungeon World or Dragon Age. I'm exploring other systems now, but so far I've only played or run D&D (including d20 variants -- Modern/Future, Iron Heroes) and CoC. 13th Age simplifies a lot of the things I like about 4E into a tasty package, so...

Ouch.

HECK YES! I might have to vote for that one, regardless. TEAM ZEPPELIN! Edit: I think the Panarchists, rather than Miller's Pyre, would be the most appealing to my players. They're all Americans, and while not libertarians by any stretch, they're still coming from a culture in which individual...

Intriguing. I'm torn between advocating one I find agreeably villainous and advocating one that my Zeitgeist players will be a little bit conflicted about opposing.

My girlfriend and I both run games and both play in one another's games. So far, it hasn't led to any major awkwardness. We've both had criticisms of one another's DMing, and we've each had moments of frustration in-game (rules disagreement, misunderstanding, etc), but nothing that wasn't...

No, it was pretty fiddly to get the vision blocking to work for all of us, but once it was working, it ran fine. No issues with slowdown.

Reginald and Viveen went to visit Reginald's uncle, Maitland Whitecliff, a well-connected royal functionary currently stationed in Flint. Reginald's player and I had both forgotten that Maitland was supposed to pretty much always be at court, which would put him in Shale, not Flint. In fact, I...

You may want to keep some of the loftier stretch goals hidden at first. I've noticed that a lot of Kickstarters reveal their stretch goals slowly. For instance, if the funding goal is $10k, they might reveal their $15k and $20k stretch goals initially, and keep any higher ones under wraps until...

I missed that news, somehow. Cool!

TSAD is Pathfinder-only, right?

Yeah, I have to say, I think that ratio is likely close to typical across editions. I don't think high-level play is all that common. Those 25% of players still need more support than they're getting, although I have to admit that seeing how PC complexity explodes as you approach epic tier has...

I'm running Zeitgeist, and those players are currently level 6. In my girlfriend's game, we started at level 2 about two years ago and are currently level 23, in the final stages of the 4E Tomb of Horrors adventure. Both games should get all the way to 30.

I couldn't recover/recreate my Dying Skyseer maps, but here are my Digging for Lies maps so far (through act 2).
