While tidying up my loft I stumbled across a game I can't even remember buying, freedom fighters by fantasy games unlimited. Now I'm guessing I stuck it in the lift for a reason, but I never remember playing it, has anyone here experience of the game? Is it ok or a total dud?

So I was reading the thread about the intimidation skill, and it got my pondering, how does your group handle prisoners? It's always been an area o e struggled with, the options as I see it are: Take no prisoners, not especially heroic or 'good' Bind them and take them with you. Seems ok but...

Hi all So I'm not totally new to the world's of VTTs, however I'm looking for people's opinions on which might best suit me. Prior to the CV-19 lockdown our face to face game of which I am DM is a pathfinder 2e campaign and we used the setup of using a horizontal TV to display battlemaps on...

Hello good folks I was hoping the fine minds here could help me out. As a side quest in the campaign I'm running the group will stumble upon pieces of a treasure map. When the map pieces come together it will give the group an X marks the spot to a city their characters will know. All...

Hi All I was wondering if any of you clever techie bods could find a solution to this issue. I run the majority of my campaign on an iPad pro, and despite a few foibles I'm pretty happy with it. The other day I found my original iPad from way back, now I appreciate its pretty much only...

Any tips on how to do this without relying on endless skill checks? I've got a scenario in my current campaign where a ghostly galleon that is often sighted by local fishermen and is a bit of a legend has attacked the local village. Now this Galleon happens to be crewed by warforged who are...

Hi All I was after a little advice. For my game we use a local VTT on horizontal flat screen TV. I have a PC connected to this which runs Roll20 as a player client, then as a DM I use my Ipad pro to run Roll20 DM client this works ok (with a few little foibles), however the difficult I find...
