The VOIDRUNNER'S CODEX is LIVE! Explore new worlds, fight oppressive empires, fend off fearsome aliens, and wield deadly psionics with this comprehensive boxed set expansion for 5E and A5E!
I've played it and run it, and I really love it. I have to agree, it works best for homebrewed campaign worlds, or the Blue Rose game (both of which I've run). I found it much easier to run, play, and to explain to other people than other systems. It works for modern games as well as fantasy...
IMO, I'd save your money, and get Black Company. It's a much better setting, and it's only one book. A lot more flexible, better value, better writing...just better all around. I ended up selling all my midnight stuff, and just using Black Company.
While I hate asking for a "nanny", and I think having different forums for the editions should work, I've also noticed people trying to get around the restriction. So, I would say to extend it once. And where's the punch and pie??? :p
How fun - my daughter's name is also Maeve!
I agree with this - you have to be responsible for your own kids, of course. Our best solution was to offer to host games at our house. That way, there is plenty for our daughter to do, and she's comfortable.
That's why I called them "hints" instead of rules - no absolutes, just tips from someone who's been a gamer girl for a long, long time (OMG, has it been 23 years ALREADY???) and a parent for a short time. :)
I'm starting to wonder...my thread about female gamers got slightly hijacked into a dragonborn boobies discussion, and this one had a lot of talk about backsides...Should I be worried, or is it just me? :p:lol:
Is Pathfinder as dependent on minis as 4e is? I haven't had a chance to really read or play Pathfinder yet, is why I'm asking. I'm probably still going to pick it up at Gen Con, mainly because I can't think of anything else I'm going to want - except a couple of books at the Green Ronin booth.
As a children's librarian, I sometimes come across a cool book that I think gamers would like, but might miss because it's written for kids or teens, even though it can be enjoyed by anyone. I thought I'd post a few titles, in case anyone is looking for something new and different to read...
OK, in that situation, that is someone burdening a game with their kids.
But when my husband and I put together our current group, we made it plain up front that we have a daughter, and are planning another baby, and so kids are a part of our household. We also can't afford a babysitter...
Yes, I got your email, and I deleted it unread. I'm not interested in reading how what you did was somehow my fault - like the email you sent making everything his fault when my husband told you why he quit your game. I have too much going on in my life right now to rehash this with you. If...
Yep. We just don't have the money for a sitter every week - we barely have money for a sitter once a month, which is why we go for a movie. We know exactly how long we'll be gone, etc. And we always game at our house, or literally right next door, where our daughter is welcome, and we can...
I hate the point buy system. What we do is have the players roll six sets of stats, then place them where it makes sense for their characters. Sort of the best of both worlds. :)
I had this happen, but luckily, the player was smart enough to bring along a DVD, and his girlfriend decided she didn't want to play, and so hung out and watched her movie. It worked out well, the gf had something to do, and the next week, she went out with friends instead of coming to the game.
Actually, gaming with babies is easier. They sleep if they are under 6 months, and are very portable. If they are between 6 - 12 months, you can take a high chair, and let them sit at the table. Provide crackers, etc, and a few high chair toys, and they are good to go. My daughter had a ball...
My daughter is 2, and her bed time is 10:30pm, because I get home from work at 9:30pm, and my husband goes to work at 10pm. She refuses to go to bed until I get home. She doesn't get up until 9am / 10 am, so she's getting enough sleep, and on game nights, she's up until the game breaks up at...
Yes, I have to agree with this. When it stops being fun, it's time to find a new group or take a break. Better for everyone involved. It's what me and my husband did. Another point - It might not be able for parents to both play at the same time for a while, one may have to stay at home with...
