Yesterday, 01:22 PMHah. I was going with the knife analogy as well, so I'll add onto yours. The alternative is a good quality steel knife, that holds an edge very well,...22 replies | 1329 view(s)

2024-05-07, 08:13 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsI actually really liked that show too!

2024-05-07, 02:54 PMOh. Yeah. Valid point. Sometimes "system you already know, but have to mod a bit to make work" is better than "new system you've never played...22 replies | 1329 view(s)

2024-05-07, 02:02 PMgbaji replied to a thread Works where you were surprised to learn you were in the minority of viewers in Media DiscussionsYeah. I never got the hate for Solo either. I enjoyed it. At the end of the day, it's a one shot film, and does exactly what it needed to do (tell...54 replies | 2338 view(s)

2024-05-07, 01:20 PMFinally got around to watching part 2. I'll comment below. Yup. Which is why I actually like SW a lot. They are absolutely horrible at using...211 replies | 18270 view(s)

2024-05-06, 06:47 PMThis was going to be my first suggestion as well. The only possible issue is the power curve. Hero system very very well handles the initial "start...22 replies | 1329 view(s)

2024-05-06, 05:33 PMSure. But the scenario in question was more like the first case and not at all like the second. The player told you what he wanted to do (find the...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-06, 11:39 AMThere are laws in modern day against all sorts of things that exist in the Stickverse. I'm relatively certain that the mark of justice falls well...506 replies | 48760 view(s)

2024-05-03, 06:09 PMIt's entirely possible that it only includes paladins who actually died in the process of defending the gate itself.. Which would explain why it...506 replies | 48760 view(s)

2024-05-03, 03:24 PMCool. Thanks for the background. That actually helped a lot. It does lead me to the position that there was little to no expectation by the players...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-03, 12:15 AMThat does somewhat depend on the FTL methodology, and depends on what you are trying to accomplish, but in general yes. Ironically, despite the...211 replies | 18270 view(s)

2024-05-02, 06:56 PMLol! Yeah. I get that. To be fair. I'm assuming that this quote: "they are evil and in the city and are up to no good" is being run through...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-02, 04:02 PMAh. Which explains my confusion. Not just my lack of knowledge of the setting, but the terminlogy used was incorrect to boot. Got it. So when...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-02, 03:22 PMExcept that's not what they did. They told them what the Formori were doing "in their building", and not about some (seemingly unrelated) bit of...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-02, 02:54 PMThey did give an answer. They told the Fae about the werewolves in their building. Ok. After re-reading, it was the fomorians in the building, who...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-01, 09:15 PMOk. But which is the case here? I think it's number one. If the players had comprehended that "werewolves attacking the woods is something important...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-05-01, 02:29 PMI don't think that's necessariy about the definition of agency though. It's about the fact that agency is not the sole determinant of...186 replies | 10891 view(s)

2024-04-30, 08:24 PMYeah. If we assume that ghoulism has existed the whole time, and that The Ghoul is the first, and that this drug is needed to avoid going feral, then...96 replies | 6552 view(s)

2024-04-30, 07:42 PMSure. But it's your analogy. And the analogy works better with the assumption that this is a wildfire and there is a concern about it spreading. We...439 replies | 20938 view(s)

2024-04-30, 05:46 PMMaybe it's the way you are doing it? I'd be a bit annoyed with someone telling me what square I should move to as well. Note the difference...439 replies | 20938 view(s)
