    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Current non-D&D campaign is: Call of Cthulhu 7e (Sunday Nights) Recent One-Shots: Empire of the Petal Throne (which beyond the historical significance I don't really get the appeal) Inner City (basically D&D in the early 80s about being a thug in the world of tv shows like Starsky & Hutch)...

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    How is Flames of War? I've hmmmed and hawed about it for years. Currently we're playing AT-43, Warhammer Kill Team and Strontium Dog while we finish some minis for Mighty Armies. Looking for some skirmish rules for 15mm similar to kill team.

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Is the dynamic lighting worth the price? I'm still on a free account. I haven't tried DW yet.

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Currently running Tunnels & Trolls Japan "The Tomb of Axton" on Roll20/Discord. This is a test to see if I can make a fun game in a new medium (newish to me - played but this is my first GMing on R20).

    COVID19 and pirates and a dragon

    The part that concerns me is that I don't have or know Photoshop nor have much artistic talent. I also don't want to invest money before knowing if I can make Roll20 work. I've used it as a player happily but as a GM, I need tokens and a map.

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Testing the new version of the Inner City RPG on Roll20/Discord. It's basically like AD&D1e for modern times if modern times was Starsky & Hutch and you were the bad guys. Set in the early 80s. Hoping to play some Traveller or Tales of Equestria at home.

    Is some of the material available on Roll20 or is he building it up from scratch?

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Indeed. While there are dramatic 'feels' differences between OD&D->1e and 2e-5e it's all D&D. Anything d20 based would have to be foundationally different. Even then, breaking d20 into 5% chunks for a derivative percentile system could really still be D&D. They're all gateway games to a much...

    Besides D&D, what are you playing?

    Drinax is so heavy with material. So much to read before even starting.

    Currently playing Riki-Tiki-Traveller 2e, Strontium Dog and Far Away Land. I hope to soon play the Inner City RPG and Core Command as well as some more Tails of Equestria.

    On Choice, Consequence and the Right to Fail

    TPKs are brilliant as long as the players are aware of the possibility. I have one player who gets upset if whatever foolish action he chooses doesn't result in success. The rest are happy to just see what happens. He's also the one that wants epic storytelling, while the others want action...

    Zine Quest - What did you end up enjoying last year?

    Hmmmm... Maximum HP. I think that's the only one that worked out for me. Edit: KAMB 3e also worked out.

    Review: Alien Roleplaying Game

    Interesting. I'd definitely give it a whirl at a convention but doubt I'll immediately invest in it (despite almost pre-ordering). It sounds worthwhile if you know you'll play. I run a number of 'surprise' xenomorph adventures using Traveller and it works well enough. Silhouette would also...

    OSR OSR Gripes

    I've played more 1st level adventures than any other kind and I love them. It may be one of my gripes toward 2e and forward. Everyone is a magical 4 colour superhero. All the best stories froth gaming table are about your character dying.

    Adventure In The Far Future With Traveller Second Edition

    If one has the Starter Box (which has a ton of content) what do you think is the next logical product to purchase? Is the main rulebook even necessary?
