Greetings, I’m giving my dogs a break for a bit here. Gaming all day taxing (it certainly wasn’t karaoke until 2am) Milwaukee is so far a pretty nice city. Didn’t hit much traffic, navigating is easy, some great sights and establishments. The Baird is beautiful and perfect for a gaming...

Greetings! Intro So, lot of the discussion lately has got playstyle and group forming on my mind. Reminds me of those communication courses I took in college on communication in work groups. Im sure some of y'all are familiar with Tuckman's stages of group development (see image above). Not to...

Greetings. There are numerous campaign settings for untold numbers of TTRPGs. Some, have a single setting that is general to encompass any type of story. Some others, are open world types that can cover a wide spread of genres. Additionally, some bespoke RPGs have specific settings to match a...

Greetings, Been kicking some things in my noodle for a bit here. The balance discussions has me thinking about play styles and interests. I noticed a few stark differences in some player motivations and expectation of play. I've been playing TTRPGs for a few decades now and noticed at least two...

Greetings, Thought Id ask if any EN worlders hail from Arizona? I have family in the Phoenix area and will be heading down for a week in January 2025. In the planning phase of things to do. First of all, im a big fan of biking and have never done any in Phoenix/Mesa/Gilbert/Chandler area. I...

Greetings, Its been awhile since we did one of these poor man's exercises. Thought I'd bring it back with a doozy; Jesse Eisenberg and Michael Cera! Rules are simple, which actor is the lesser, yet likely more affordable, stand in for the other...

Greetings, I've worked my way back into gaming out of a hole that occurred during the pandemic. I wont go into details, but lets say I wasn't playing much of anything, nor had the desire to get into anything for a year or two back then. Prior, I had run APs in PF1 for a good solid decade. Often...

This is a + thread intended to discuss Diplomacy from folks who like the game. I know its highly divisive, and if it boils your blood, please just move on. Wondering if there are any EN Worlders that fancy a game of Diplomacy? A simple game, that requires a deft strategy in navigating alliances...

I understand some threads needing to be closed because of the nature of the OP itself. Though, on occasion a thread is fine with the exception of a few participants that will not listen to mods. Could the mods lean towards ejecting those folks instead of closing the otherwise...

How much game is too much game in an RPG? I think that answer is going to differ depending on the person. Personally, I have a pretty liberal definition of what role playing is. I do think many video and board games absolutely apply. In fact you have to get down to the Tetris level of game...

Greetings, This thread is not about homebrewing from whole cloth. It is about folks that take known settings such as the numerous ones from D&D, and IPs such as Starwars, Marvel/DC, Alien, Game of Thrones, etc.. and make their own content. For folks who do this, do you cleave as close to lore...

Greetings, Folks have probably heard, and maybe used themselves, the phrase “the answer is not on your character sheet”. I decided to add always to the thread title because I think the phrase can be used in multiple ways. The first is to imply skill play in which the player is being challenged...

Greetings, I've been mulling the idea of game modes in my head for awhile. All the jargon floating around in discussions about game design and play has got me thinking about my experiences. I understand what is often called traditional (Trad) is that the GM has full control of setting with...

Greetings! Anybody catch the premier last night on FX and Hulu? About twenty years ago I got the original series on netflix DVD by mail and it was...well it was made in the 80s. I dont recall it being culturally insensitive, just cheesy like a west meets east soap opera. However, this new...

Howdy folks! Working on some 3D resin prints and need some advice, tips, and tricks. I seem to have no problem gluing my minis to hex bases, but when it comes to gluing an arm or torso to waist/legs, I have had no luck. The issue is that the prints are stable but not durable enough to be...

Mercenaries KS Im in for early bird (Next 48 hours) for the extra clan fighter. Jumping in at Company level for a couple additional forcepacks!

Greetings, Have you had a chance to catch Netflix limited series Kelidescope? Overall, I thought it was a great idea that doesn't reach its full potential. Folks may ask themselves why Oceans 11 wasnt a series? Well, likely because some characters are just not that interesting to get their own...
