No worries there, good sir. It would definitely not help you. It did help me, and I like having statblocks at my fingertips. :)

I would believe you, good sir, weren't it for several Kickstarter projects of yours. Unless you insist that you just made them on the fly. :)

There are several methods and tips for constructing queries. Generally: 1. Try to limit the scope of the query. 2. If your query is complicated, initially form it as a request to form a query to itself. In this way you'll learn about hidden or non-obvious assumptions. 3. Try to split bigger...

Here's a short tutorial on how to painlessly shorten your (i.e., gamemaster's) preparation time... or how I learned to stop worrying and loved the bomb. NOTE: For this example I have used PDFs of manuals, my campaign notes, and an adventure from an excellent game of Shadows/Secrets of Weird...

The new wound system looks very interesting to me. It resembles Kult 1st ed, and it worked very well there.

Thank you for agreeing with me. Just in case I need to explain my joke: I have defined similarity in terms from PbtA using moves. My point was that the mechanic was hardly unique. I have explicitly tried to emphasize this by adding the statement about focusing on similarities.

That depends on whether you focus on similarities or differences. Compels: https://fate-srd.com/fate-core/invoking-compelling-aspects#compelling-aspects Cypher GM intrusions: https://callmepartario.github.io/og-csrd/#using-gm-intrusion-as-a-narrative-tool Personally, I would define either as...

Compels seem to be similar to GM intrusions.

Regarding Hellfinder (based on the promo materials on the campaign page) : It is classless. Your perks determine what you can do. There is a mention that getting them changed. It is still PFRPG2. Therefore statblocks are likely to be compatible to certain extent. The game is in...

Thank your summary. Your opinions/findings match with mine. Note: I am not making any decisions right now, I was just slightly curious about CSIO status. I am not planning to buy it until they release it, and the new version gets a well researched review. Ten year delay (not to mention the...

I did. Twice. Specifically, this part caught my attention: https://www.enworld.org/threads/goodman-games-revives-relationship-with-anti-semitic-publisher-for-new-city-state-kickstarter-updated.713282/ ["Joseph Goodman has just posted a statement regarding The City State of the Invincible...

In other words, you decline to post a credible post that contains a clear and unambiguous debunking of Goodman Games official statements. I will infer from this that you do not have access to any, and that you are relying on your bias to continue. Regarding Morrus efforts, they are commendable...

Could you post a specific post containing the said debunking instead of 35 pages long thread? Cursory skimming of the opening article shows only statement-vs-statement and unable-to-comment items. Not much to go on, and frankly, I would rather believe Goodman's word for several reasons, one of...

If you're referring to the City-state of the Invincible Overlord, here is the link to their side of the story: https://goodman-games.com/a-statement-about-city-state-of-the-invincible-overlord/ The main takeaways: 1. They partnered before the said miscreant went public with their views. 2...

Could you share a play report? I've never run Cthulhu by Gaslight (actually a Cthulhu game) game, and I would like to learn more about it.

Here's a link to an article with more screenshots: https://www.enworld.org/threads/mark-morrison-on-gaslight-i’m-running-this-tonight.708058/ This is a gorgeous game book.

Daggerheart uses the spotlight mechanic. The owner of the narrative (the GM) usually moves the spotlight to the most likely candidate (a party scout for example) among PCs. Afterwards, if the player rolls with Fear, the GM decides whether to use Fear and activate adversaries. If the player did...

The devil is in the details. Also, some people would prefer to know the odds prior to committing. Still, thanks for offering an opinion.

Nah, it's not grimdark. Yes, it's literally dark, there are some dark aspects, but otherwise it is good old fantasy. A dictionary of my definitions: grim - your odds of survival are frankly,far away from being great. Calling them bad would be generous. dark - the world is in a bad spot. People...

Just for the heck of it, I have requested an AI to rate the chance both ads were made by AI, and then provide its reasoning. 1. The first ad was rated as 80% human work, with some AI used for editorial cleanup. 2. The second ad was rated as 50% human work, being probably built by an AI, and...
