    WotC Why WotC SHOULD Make A New Setting

    For the life of me I can't understand why you are still trying to define Ravnica as Urban Fantasy when it is pretty clear Urban Fantasy is Buffy and Anita Blake and Dresden and The Dark Tower etc...

    An interesting thing about HP is that there is a whole world to explore. You could make a Hogwarts show that was set at any time within a thousand year period, and do things that are new and interesting AND have call backs and fan service. Why hasn't HP been "milked" the same way as Star Wars...

    The Food Analogy

    The chef can make food no one eats. The GM can design an adventure no one plays. It becomes a meal or a game once everyone sits down at the table.

    Great movie. I should track down the book.

    Rolemaster Unified Releasing December 3rd

    Im intrigued, but there's a near zero chance I could convince enough players to try it.

    Don't forget TERFs exist.

    D&D 5E (2024) High Level 5.5E: Building Encounter Chains

    I somehow imagine the players would be unsatisfied with that.

    Lots of post production due to SFX tho.

    D&D 5E (2024) High Level 5.5E: Building Encounter Chains

    Right. Silly of me. This campaign is almost entirely 5.5E core book material only for the players. The whole point was to test 5.5 over the full level range, so we have been fast leveling throughout -- which is another reason I have not really mastered the attrition model despite playing for...

    I think we should take care not to vilify people that simply have different "lines in the sand" than us. On topic: I wonder if they will manage to get a season out each year in order to keep up with the age of the child actors and not pull a Stranger Things.

    D&D 5E (2024) High Level 5.5E: Building Encounter Chains

    Thank you. I am not sure there would be much point to low difficulty encounters, though. Wouldn't that just make it even more of a grind?

    This is where our personal definitions are not going to align.

    The Food Analogy

    I see what you are saying but I think in most (not all) circumstances, the players are more like the folks standing around snacking on cheese and sipping wine while the GM cooks. The meal itself, and the joy found in it, comes from everyone's involvement, but in most games I have experienced...

    The Food Analogy

    Of course you can stretch an analogy to the breaking point, but one wonders if there is any benefit in doing so. What can we glean by really testing the food analogy with respect to dietary restrictions?

    Andor convinced me that there is a huge amount of great Occupied Paris style war espionage stuff to mine in the OT era. Give me spy stories and the rebellion "Dirty Dozen" and all those great WW2 tropes in space.
