    Pathfinder 2 e vs D&D 5e (high lvl play)

    Its interesting to read this becasue my 5E experience was different than my past D&D experience. When we played 5E, it was very quick at the earliest levels to run combats. About mid level 7-11-ish combats got pretty lengthy. However, once we hit 13+ combats were lightning quick again. I cant...

    Burger me!

    The cheese is pinched inside the beef before cooking. Gotta let it sit a few min cause it comes out like lava if eat it too quickly!

    Burger me!

    it’s been awhile but the Twin City staple is always a hit. Folks here it is the “Jucy Lucy” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5441785ae4b01ad919f83ddc/1580496081375-0VU3ZI4IQKJ4N67J3GBP/2020-about.jpg

    Pathfinder 2 e vs D&D 5e (high lvl play)

    The high level issue is two fold. The first is preference and a lot of folks dont do it merely because they dont want a gonzo fantasy game. What do I mean by that? I mean, pocket dimensions, mass teleport, scry and fry, wish, among many others. The game changes in scope of adventure and...

    Burger me!

    Grass fed beef salt and pepper. Cook in skillet to medium. Use a couple of dabs of balsamic and olive oil on the bun to toast in skillet. Slice a long piece of mozzarella, basil, and some cherry tomatoes. Combine and there you have a fresh tasty caprise burger.

    D&D General Poll: How many Role Playing Games do you play besides D&D?

    Too many to list. I barely ever play D&D and its because I got so much good stuff to get to.

    Playing "Adventurers" As Actual Adventurers

    Yes, most of those things are substituted for different environments. Tainted atmospheres, strange alien world biologies, mapping star systems, etc.. With Traveller being a skill focused system, it leads naturally to exploration challenges. Paizo's Serpent Skull AP tired to do fantasy Indian...

    Playing "Adventurers" As Actual Adventurers

    My Traveller games are often exploration based with combats being few and far between.The Sci-Fi genre is both dangerous and imaginative!

    GMs: What is your prep to play ratio?

    One reason I love modules is that while I love using maps, monsters, and NPCs im not fond of actually making them. Things like the NPC Codex that Paizo made for PF1 are my bread and butter. So, the more of the mechanics that are done and ready for me to grab and go like a tool kit the better...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I’ve noticed that. A lot of conversations about just because you (general) don’t understand something doesn’t mean nobody understands it.

    Payn does a 7 day trial of MGM+ so you dont have to...

    I get what you are saying but I’m not put off the genre forever. So far, From is bucking the trend. I don’t see BSG as a puzzle box it’s more of a mysticism tale and while a different type of shoe can suffer the same issues.

    GMs: What is your prep to play ratio?

    I probably spend more prep time than the average GM I suspect. When im running an AP, I spend a good deal of time looking at what the players will likely encounter. Most of the logistics like stat blocks are covered, I leave that to the pages. My part is more one of mentally preparing for the...

    Spoilers Hey look, there's a new Robin Hood show coming with Sean Bean as the Sheriff!

    I like this take on Robin Hood in the writing, but yeah the cast outside Sean Bean is rather B squad.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Dogs love routines they have amazing internal clocks. My boy Jax was grumpy if he didnt get his walk before noon in his twilight years.

    I did see a trailer for it. Looked like a series version of the movie the ungentlemanly company or whatever came out a year or two ago. I also noticed they have a modern take on War of the Worlds available and it has numerous seasons, but I cant comment as Ive heard nor seen any of it. Forrest...
