Not sure if everyone is done badwrongfunning the OP for his experience, but has anyone else had problems running or teaching new players this? I have not bought it yet.

It could be a bit like this.

It is like some songs that you have not heard in a while. They take you back to certain points in time and you recall the event surrounding the song. Although thinking about some of the songs, I guess some could be bad, but classic. I hear Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae I remember the summer of...

How come nobody pointed out that it is not 'technically' a rulebook, but a Reference Booklet. Please direct pithy comments back to me. I was going to insert a sarcastic note, but some people think something written is does not always come across right.

In the first season though?

Sounds like some of the Epic events at the local convention over the years. A couple have been Adventure League (AL) games and tables of different tiers taking on various parts of the adventure. There was not a lot of crossover in some of these. One adventure had different tables in the...

Well of course, he was the favorite DMNPC. I remember having the lead figure of him with Sam and Frodo from Grenadier I believe.

I thought they left the pony with the octopus monster at the entrance to the mines. The rest of them that had to carry al that stuff did not seem to be any more encumbered because of it.

Like going to Plymouth Plantation and hearing them speak in the old tongue 1600s English. If you ka-no you ka-no how to pronounce things.

The 15 minute per mile pace of road marching is hard to keep for more than a couple hours. 20 minutes is more the average for normal people and 30 minutes is more under load with people of mixed abilities to keep together. The Army standard was 3 hours to march 12 miles with 35lb pack. People...

There might be something with tracing over it with a dry erase marker. It might just be fore permanent marker on a dry erase board. I also wonder if a Mr Clean sponge will work- they work on all sorts of stuff.

Platoon and FMJ are both quoted a lot. Not so much Hamburger Hill. There is the way it ought to be... And the way it is.

I did like Nentir Vale, not that I know much of the rest of the world that it was in. I liked the gritty feeling and no large cities to get all sorts of things from. The points of light in a hostile world. I tend to play in the realms and it is fine, but not getting the same feel.

When my son first started to play we had a campaign where he had the main character and I ran the sidekick NPC that followed his lead. It was clear that the NPC was going to follow what the PC wanted to do and was there to help with combats and skills to search and such to help with more than...

I wonder if a megadungeon would be better. A bit like what Gary did with Castle Grayhawk. You can still have random groups play and check out a few/several rooms each time and always just return to the safe place at the end of the night. You could have different levels of the dungeon for...

Thank you for trying to spread the game to new players. Hopefully some will become DMs themselves and the payoff will become something you can spread into a true west marches game, maybe letting you be a player once in a while. I also think if you are doing the work, you get to choose the...

I have run things like a convention and have all pre-made PCs. The whole table could pick from several and there was a few left over. It is a trial to see if they like it and want to play more. Maybe most things are pre-made and some options like name and race can be left to choose. It might...
