Savage Worlds won’t require you to run an NPC character. In PF2 just I’d just spec out a heal bot cleric whose function is healing and as a plot delivery system. Minimal mental overhead. If your running an AP in either game most of the prep is done for you, especially if your just following...

I've always thought the broach link to the Queen at the end of chapter 1 is a weak tie. When I dig in maybe there's a way to tie Gaedren to the events in Book 2, and then more tightly against the Queen.

There’s nothing wrong with scripted adventures. I know the internet hates them but apparently they are popular enough that the industry continues to produce them. See Paizos adventure paths for the first example. You can have a scripted adventure and still have agency. The agency comes...

I was thinking the same thing when I read the final list of group wants.

They are still pretty tightly focused on the Gaedren but I think I can massage them some by including some cruelty from Gaedeen son who shows up later. I may be able to cobble together some new traits from information in the Korvosa book as well. I’m looking forward to the Harrow Deck.

I appreciate the commentary. I gave the players 6 AP options with descriptions and had them rank the ones they were interested in. So it looks like I’ll start reading and preparing for Curse of the Crimson Throne. I’ll run the Anniversary Edition. I’d like more Kazavon action so there may be...

GURPS Musketeers vs. Monsters Survived the Ghouls. Healing time.

When current campaign wraps up (three weeks to three months they way I go) I want to revisit Paizo's APs and cross something off my GM Bucket List. I'd like to run a AP from start to finish. Probably in PF1, I've tried PF2 repeatedly and keep bouncing off how tight the system is, though I have...

GURPS Musketeers vs. Monsters Monster hunting isn’t easy.

Backed a few kickstarters earlier this month and then bought some mapping assets from Tom Cartos this weekend. I needed some stuff I could use for 17th century Paris.

GURPS Musketeers vs. Monsters A ghoul kingdom beneath Paris.

200pt GURPS Musketeer Monster Hunters

I like Exarch and Hallowed.

Star Wars Character Creation.

RIFTS I think

I’m tempted by the Strangelight KS. Steampunk Ghostbusters is in my wheelhouse. That it ties in with Iron Kingdoms is even better. There’s a pretty sweet digital pledge for everything that is trying to pick my pocket.

Savage Worlds runs large combats relatively well, summoning adding to the numbers isn’t really a problem. PF2 requires summoners to sacrifice a price of their own action economy to order around the summoned monsters. It works fairly well.

I use one but only a low profile landscape screen. A letter height panel is too tall for my tastes. Obscures my vision and relations with players. I don’t use them to hide dice rolls generally. Just to have easy reference for things. I often make my own panels to insert. 99% of dice rolls...

GURPS and HERO will indeed give you everything you want and more. I’d also recommend Savage Worlds. Good character build options, plenty of material to draw from, and can be tactically inclined.
