    Kicking them to the curb isn't a viable tool for any but the worst... because I like to have a group.

    I'm a couple decades out, but the major issues are still the same. I was doing publications on a local level, 500-1000 copy level stuff, for a non-profit. Every other month periodical, annual client resources guide (5k copies), annual state lobbying materials (150 copies)... for a 3 year...

    as a POTENTIAL consequence, not an automatic one. Not really. CharOp and Spotlight Hogging are two different problems, and are not axiomatically always comorbid. CharOp wants to win as much as possible - but experiences are the only really potent weak spot - and subject to GM approval...

    Daggerheart Releases Another Round of Playtesting, Including Two New Classes

    Not entirely true... once OOP, some things become essentially unobtanium. Some even get taken completely off DTRPG... (EG: MWP's Cortex Classic and Cortex Plus games, several years of BX/BECMI/Cyclo+BBB+Wrath being off the service)... There's a minis wargame that's RPG adjacent; the dead tree...

    How did you learn to run or play Mage?

    No, just a few scenarios It's easy to come up with plots... but dealing with the total mayhem that a party, especially a mixed party, can do is not as easy. Improv was essential. Kind of... it was easier to run the kinds of game I wanted using Ars Magica (which was also Marc Rein•Hagen)... And...

    I found 3 ½ on KS: 2 bestiaries, a deck of support cards (Class abiliities, 2× 1d12 subdecks. some other cards), and a setting that's for 5E, but they're considering a Daggerheart conversion. 2 of them are not running yet. All non-Darrington, under the CGL. None on Backerkit. Nothing relevant...

    It's not unimportant, but yeah, it's less vital than in D&D. Throwing some healing at the Guardian can magnify their abilities.

    Well, yeah, one might break it, depending upon which. Some have unlimited summons, some have activation of several at once. No, that's the Solos. If the party is large, and you want them running scared, use a solo of the next tier. :devilish:

    Not when the needed dice are non-standard and out of "print"... Or when players can't be arsed to learn a d6 conversion table that's used constantly. Or you have a player whom the group knows they lie about their dice... Especially if the group is big on the game side of RPGs. I had one FTF...

    I only got assumed older during high school when in NJROTC uniform or CAP uniform. Especially as a Cadet Ensign. That single undersized and un-beveled bar got salutes from a lot of USAF NCOs. (The ratio on commissioned bars are 3:8, cadet are 1:4. If you know that both are used, the cadet bars...

    DriveThruRPG quietly releases "legacy" URL for those who prefer the classic site look

    They told me about it before they went live with the new site system as the main page. I may have been part of a test group. I did give (fairly negative) feedback during the trial period.

    I've been accused of being 16-17 until I was thirty, and of being under 21 until my beard started graying at 50... And someone once approached me and asked if I was my own offspring... I recognized her, and said, "n., I am the guy you are reminded of...and don't apologize for it." Hugs...
