    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    I feel like a post-summer-synopsis of what's gone on is in order: (feel free to add anything I missed) Team Infiltrate: Gained some info about the headquarters of the cultists: Learned about a Hydra. Escaped into the sewers and just missed Team Lake by a few moments. The sewers are the lake...

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    Yes. Thank you. Now I have to go back and reread this thread. It turns out I never played Daggerheart!

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    Isn’t it initiative cards? Edit: I’m starting to think that I’m thinking of a different game…. Edit 2: I’m thinking thinking Dragon Bane. Oops!

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    I’ve played two separate games of DH and both times I had the warrior class (or whatever it is that lets you keep a card from one round to the next). I’m having a difficult time figuring out how to use that. I’ve been swapping initiative cards with teammates so that I can go lower in the...

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    Sorry, I didn’t mean you specifically. I do see haversacks doled out quite a bit.

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    But needing a bag of holding for a campaign seems strange to me. If DMs are handing them out so players can avoid encumbrance rules, then why play with those rules?

    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    In which case, @FitzTheRuke if the Houndsman makes his save vs the Hold Person, I'd like to use my Inspiration to give him Disadvantage. (I think you can use it for that???)

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    But if people aren’t tracking encumbrance why wouldn’t they have it on their list. If those caltrops were the difference between being encumbered or not, it’s a logistical/strategic choice. Otherwise, why not just make sure you have everything on the list. I can think of several things that...

    D&D General Who is this made for (Not Beginners) - the New D&D Starter Set

    I wouldn’t think it was a packing mistake. He bought 4 boxes. Presumably one or more of the boxes would have included everything.

    @Snarf Zagyg did Shamal give us inspiration at our last short rest? My character sheet says I have one but I can’t remember if I just forgot to remove it after the dragon fight or if I gained a new one post combat.

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

    I came here to say the same Thing. Also the best Prince John.

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    for people who don’t track gear, do you just assume that your character has everything they need? When I played FATE, it was like that. There was no inventory. You were assumed you to have all the tools you needed for your “class” and, if a time ever came up where the group needed...

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    I don’t get how tracking equipment is a mini game. I have two lists: the stuff in my pack and the stuff I carry. In a system where there is encumbrance, I drop my pack and it gets picked up at the end of combat when people are picking up the missile weapons they dropped on the ground (like...

    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    I had a dream last night that we were about to enter the final room of this dungeon. I was living it in real time. It was very adventuresome.

    (5.24 PBP) Vault Redux (OOC) Fitz's Refresher

    A couple things: 1. every team should have gotten a message from Shamal from the sending stones? (Although, maybe we are ahead in time so you haven’t gotten it yet.) And I suppose the message is mostly indecipherable given Shamal’s amazing alliteration 2. I’m not sure if you got the jist...

    Pirate Borg: Buried in the Bahamas

    Hearing the bird’s song, he yells to the parrot, which to this point, seemed a helpful sort, “Hey Bird, check that yonder beach fer signs of danger”

    ((I like the narrow beach idea))

    RPG Evolution: Weight, What?

    All the encumbrance rules which most gamers ignore. Equipment slots are easier to track and a bit more “realistic” because you have to actually make choice of what to carry. The problem is no one ever wants to play with an encumbered character. I think most games would be better with the...
