    Commentary thread for that “Describe your game in five words” thread.

    We just had session 2 of our fledgling GURPS DFRPG. I am running the The Tomb of Absythor from Frog God Games. This far GURPS combat is just very slow for us. I’m hoping it picks up. On the bright side I’ve prepped the first two levels of the dungeon and at the current pace that will cover...

    How Quickly Do You Bounce Off a System?

    I’m usually willing to give something at least a one-shot to see if there’s something I’m missing. I conceptually love Blades in the Dark but realized about 20 minutes into the book I’d never run it. Not a great fit for me as a GM or my regular play group. The ‘recent’ other game I bounce...

    D&D General Jasper's Annual I spend how much in 2023

    I’d be afraid of doing this. Good for you for having it under control. Maybe I’ll add a page to my budget spreadsheet and track my hobby expenses this year.

    Blue eye samurai

    I enjoyed it immensely. I don’t watch a ton of anime but this one was both beautiful and had a compelling story. Looking forward to another season.

    How Crunchy is Too Crunchy, For You Personally

    D100 roll under. Auto crit on 1-4/96-100. Opposed rolls in combat. Can do damage to an attacked if you win the opposed roll. Escalating/de-escalating advantage as combat ebbs and flows.

    Grade the GURPS System

    This Bundle of Holding is for the Powered by GURPS Dungeon Fantasy RPG (DFRPG), which is subtly different from, but wholly compatible with, the core GURPS Dungeon Fantasy line. The best part is the DFRPG doesn't require the GURPS Core Characters or Campaigns books. It is wholly self-contained...

    Grade the GURPS System

    Session 1 of the my GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Lost City of Barakus/Tomb of Absythor game starts Tuesday. I’m hoping we(I) can stick with for longer than 6-8 sessions. Going to take it slow to start, I’m just going to run the DFRPG I Smell A Rat adventure and tie it into some other Sewer stuff...

    How Crunchy is Too Crunchy, For You Personally

    GURPS at the high-end. Savage Worlds at the low-end. The sweet spot is Pathfinder 1e core rulebook.

    D&D General Thoughts on running Rappan Athuk (and deadly megadungeons in general) [SPOILERS]

    I’m gearing up to run Lost City if Barakus and the Tomb of Abysthor combined in GURPs Dungeon Fantasy. I typically don’t run games with such large dungeons so we’ll see how it goes. I’ll be dropping clues with the cultists if Orcus in both dungeons that lead back to RA. We’ll see if the group...

    What are you favorite RPG genres?

    1. Fantasy with a focus on normal to mildly heroic. No more powerful than say 7-10th level D&D 3.5 characters with below average WBL. 2. Science Fantasy with a focus on weird. Love Thunddar and Numenera and pretty much anything in between. 3. Action/Pulp horror. Two-Fisted Masks of...
