Perfect, thank you both for those answers!

Having recently gotten into Dragonbane and then backing the Invincible RPG kickstarter, I’ve been looking at other games in the Free League catalog and I’ve become curious about Mutant Year Zero. I have a huge nostalgia spot for Gamma World, but each edition is kind of a mixed bag in terms of...

I don’t disagree, but I think it helped popularize tieflings (and the way they looked in the game) to a wider audience. I know a few casual gamers who didn’t care much about tieflings until Karlach.

I’ve also encouraged varying appearances for tieflings, ala Planescape, but I think another thing that’s cemented their more modern look is BG3 and their prevalence there.

In the last year I’ve played or run games in: Star Trek Adventures Sentinels Comics Shadowdark Dragonbane Daggerheart FATE Mechwarrior Destiny World of Darkness (homebrew hack of the 5th ed system to allow Mages & Changelings) And about to start a Star Wars game (west end) Over my lifetime...

I’ll always be team Godzilla, but I have to say 90’s Gamera kicked some serious behind. Any Kaiju movie fan should check those films out.

Wow, amazing work! So happy to hear you say “No AI”.

I tend to do a lot of front-loading in my games… building the setting, creating NPCs, scenarios, and adversaries, so most of the prep tends to happen right at the start, but I’ll go with an average of 1 hour prep per 3 hours of play.

Young Burr or Older, Dr. Pepper infused Burr?

As a longtime Godzilla fan who’s run one-shots with various game engines before (from HERO to Pulp Cthulhu) I’m very interested to see what they cook up. It seems to have a focus on playing human defenders, but I wonder if it allows for PC-controlled Kaiju ala Destroy All Monsters? It looks...

Thanks for that summary of the current playtest @payn ! My Battletech group had some schedule changes and we haven’t been able to play much since the packets started releasing. I’m actually surprised TAG and Active Probes didn’t see some adjustments, since they’ve always been very niche in the...

I’m just getting my feet wet running Daggerheart and so far it’s going great, but one thing I want to utilize more is Environments. I’m planning on taking a stab at building some, but for those already running any additional tips, advice or (heh) pitfalls involved? Anyone have any examples they...

(Not to mention the plane of Mechanus and Modrons being very robotic)

In the Planescape Module “Doors to the Unknown” one of the planes you travel to was a giant circuit board.

If I’m with the right group with the right board game I definitely adopt a “character”, but it’s usually more for laughs than with any kind of serious RP in mind.

One thing I’m also impressed by is that Enterprise toy from the 80’s being in such good condition. The diecast nacelles were infamous for breaking apart in my circles.

I don’t have any to add, but I wanted to thank everybody for these suggestions! I’m often in need of short one shots and I’m taking notes!

Over 60 hrs. I’ve actually played very little D&D this calendar year. The games I’ve played in or run have included: Shadowdark, Dragonbane, BattleTech/Mechwarrior, multi-supernatural World of Darkness, and now Daggerheart. There’s also plans for some WEG Star Wars (coming soon!)

Yes, I always have, but I will moderate the voices I do if a certain group isn’t into it as much. The voice helps me find the character’s personality.

I ran a one-shot where everyone was a dragon in a world where they were the last of their kind. And I’ve played in an all-kobold adventure that was mostly done for laughs.
