I was thinking on that too, but then realised the show is focussed on the school for outsiders and the town of jericho which has become inured to outsider weirdness. We havent yet seen the reactions of the wider normie world - Except for the normie serial killer in episode 1 who showed surprise...

I will admit I enjoyed it as a fun silly ride, much more cohesive than the first half, but omg it was a convoluted trip. There were too many characters but at least they took the time to tie all the ends up (kinda) It was great to see Gwendoline Christie back looking fabulous. Enjoyed the body...

Beholder-kin: Eye of the Derp

I just recall that Stephen King did Maximum Overdrive and Tommyknockers which just shows that over the top kills are equally pornographic and movies need to play to their audience be it family friendly PG or X rated gore

theyre not though, just different. also psychologically it should be easier for a brand new player to pick up a discrete bit of info on a card and put it into the right slot on the board than a new player flicking through a rule book and then trying to slot that same info into the cloud of...

Is modular cards the future of gaming? Its an interesting potentially fun concept

Exalted 3e seems to be both broad with its abilities and tall with essence and charms and directly built for Wuxia

except Barbarians do have them - their powers only work when they are in an unfocussed emotional state of rage monks focus on their internal Ki Wizards have their books Warlocks make a pact with a Patron to get their powers

The Real Friar Tuck: a Royal Writ was issued 9th February 1417 for the arrest of "one assuming the name of Frere Tuk and other evildoers of his retinue who have committed divers murders, robberies, depredations, felonies, insurrections, trespasses, oppressions, extortions, offences and...

Yes historic witches and warlocks got their powers from CONSORTING with devils, they involved themselves in elaborate rituals - dancing with beasts and fey in the forest, sacrificing chickens, doing morning libations to the four corners etc etc. The Witches greymalkin is a great model for a...

Yeah I'm of the opinion that Warlock pact should always come with a Dark gift of some kind (borrowing Ravenlofts term), there should at the very least be a rp ribbon attached to a Pact patron, even if it is something mild like a persistent watcher or annoying voices. The Pact is also explicit...

really? - why is the character doing a particular task if not driven by their intent? surely the determination of outcomes provides the praxis of the game play driven by intent. Sure I know DnD is task focussed but what do you do when a failure to get over the wall occurs?

So Thunderbolts v Deadvengers? OK

I always assume silent, they are ethereal beings without substance, they absorb vitality though so can be felt or seen as a movement amidst the darkness (because darkness isnt a single colour)

pretty much, the Ars Magica system is essentially just flexible skill-based spell casting, and theres lots of attempts at that for DnD

nothing to do with Ars Magica and misrepresents what the designers were doing with mages. There was no deliberate decision to make spellcasting more powerful rather than was a symptom of the design philosophy that pushed balance by removing class limitations and making things more flexible...

you never heard of Car Wars? 1980 Steve Jackson Games it was inspired by Deathrace 2000 and in turn inspired GURPS Autoduel. It also had a 2002 update and card game. Fun times I've played Wizards Quest and another I cant recall where you got to be a giant faction I got to admit I dont know the...

if it's any conciliation I mis-voted too and didn't click Gnome - so I've been adding +1 to the gnome tally in my head, now it looks like I have to add +2 :)

Generally I suggest you should use C) The GM sets the scene, setting up opposition, then the PCs say how they want to proceed then roll at the end to determine if they achieve their goal? If they succeed GM frames a new scene. If they fail opposition is triggered and the PCs must react to it...

The one thats always confused me is the Caribbean - is it North America? Central, South or something else? Do Americans consider it part of America?
