Apologies if mentioned already, but I know lots of folks who miss PCs should have two Attributes Scores of 15. (pg. 9 DMG)!

Cracks me up every time I read it. I can only imagine Gary furiously banging away on his typewriter "fixing" the spell after some sort of shenanigans was pulled earlier in his game. 😆

For those that have an Instant Pot (IP), I have to share my new way of making quick carne asada inspired by the recipe I got here: 1.5 lb. Beef Chuck, cut in 3/4 in. squares 1 Cup of Beef Broth (I just use Better than Bouillon) 2 Tbsp. Butter Seasoning (your choice!) 1. Place cubes and broth...

Oh boy, how I love posting AD&D's version of Identify 😆 : "Identify (Divination) level: I Range: 0 Duration: I segment/level Area of Effect: One item Components: V, S, M Casting Time: I turn Saving Throw: Special Explanation/Description: When an identify spell is cost, one item may be touched...

@Dannyalcatraz Oh awesome! I had a feeling... I never heard of the genre until I picked up Slowdive's 2017 Self-Titled album and fell in love. I don't think that CD left my car for months. When I learned it was an entire genre from the 90's I was completely blown away. Been listening to...

Too cool. Totally understand. I'm curious about what gear and what genre now though! Shoegaze? Just getting into that...

With so many great reverb pedals on the market, what about this one jumped out at you? It sounds absolutely fantastic btw and don't want my comment to come off as "sounds just as good as any other reverb". Insight into why guitar players choose the gear they do interests me!

Have you seen Pathfinder's homage to it? 😃

D&D's new "softer" aesthetic really isn't my thing, so always excited to see RPGs with creepy art that conveys just how dangerous and horrifying dungeon delving and/or studying the arcane would really be. My recent favorites: Shadowdark Dragonslayer RPG Hyperborea:

Wow. At that price point I'd just invest in a good tablet or two and go completely digital!

Good news. I wish him the best.

This of course is "older me" reflecting on the system I loved as a kid. Truth be told, all my grade school friends and I did was rollup powerful characters to rob banks with, buy crazy gear, rob bigger banks, buy bigger, crazier gear, etc...
