Yeah I love it. I usually pick an actor or media character as a base and then key off that like @MGibster ’s Christopher Walken example. The lawyer in a recent game was channelling Michael Gambon. Once it’s established I step out of 1st person and move to 3rd person. Partly because it takes...

I don’t have a problem with it being only two combat encounters and a relatively tight location. What I do want to see is far more NPC development. Interesting objectives, conflict and mystery. Basically give me motivations!

It’s YTD Why not make it public?

It’s very easy to find people to play online through a VTT because your pool of potential players has just expanded to include everyone who shares the same language as you, has time, is interested and has the suitable technology. Rather than the person needing to live within 30 mins travel time...

I love that rat-catcher career so much. Our rat-catcher (career acquired during the horned rat adventure) had their small and vicious dog killed in a fight with the Skaven and developed (hatred Skaven). She’s now the most feared Skaven slayer in the empire!

About 200 hours of WFRP this year. Two sessions a week. One two hours, one three hours. There have been a few gaps due to sickness and holiday but balanced out with extra sessions or ones that run over by 30 mins. So confidently 200+ hours so far this year.

My D&D games are currently all monthly weekend sessions (this will change when Enemy Within finishes) The Friday night is about 4 hours. The Saturday about 7 hours so about 110 hours so far. last year when I was running Age of Worms in the week you could double that. That’s on top of two...

We’re in a golden age of gaming right now. It started with the VTT explosion during Covid and we’re riding the crest of the wave! The mainstreaming of VTT was the single biggest shift in the TTRPG world since it was created. Because it fundamentally changed access to real time games for millions...

Staffan has answered for 1e/2e really clearly. 4e came out 7 years ago so it was likely that edition. It’s different in 4e. The good news is that the upper limits have been removed. Instead there are diminishing returns as the cost of advancing an ability or skill becomes more expensive as it...

This is getting exciting!

I’m sorry that’s just not true. The player of the Rat Catcher-Scryer-River Warden was new to WFRP. The sign posts are decided by what happens in the story not some arbitrary path that the rules tell you have to take. They switched to scryer because they developed an affinity for the magic items...

I think you’ve been cruelly misinformed if you think these are my adjustments and not 4e. All these quotes are from the CRB. 4e is the most flexible career system to date. Far more sensible than making me take a set convoluted path to play the character I want. Flexibility for those that want it...

Dude. I’ve been playing WFRP for 30 years, and have four campaigns running for 4e. You don’t need to D&D-splain me. In one of those campaigns, I have a spy-ex artist, a witch hunter-ex nun, a watchmen-ex sentry. My three year enemy within campaign has Noble, ex knight of the white wolf, ex...

The novel is The Herald by Ed Greenwood.

In regards to 4e, it’s has more products released in its 7 years of run than any other edition of the game. Core book Starter set GM screen Magic speciality book Combat speciality book Rogue speciality book 5 x Campaign book 5 x Campaign supplement/anthology 3 x Adventure anthologies Monster...

I’m seriously considering running Elminster as a standard mage (if a lecherous one) with a very good PR firm and a flair for the dramatic to make himself seem grander than he is. Almost wizard of oz like. Definitely an illusionist specialist wizard.
