Fleet throw-downs are cumbersome and somewhat difficult to portray, something I learned when I wrote one in a fanfic . You need to lay out the order of battle, understand the capabilities of the vessels and the commanders, and provide interesting tactical options that allow the battle to have inter...

It's been a while, but in my experience, unless you're dealing with outlandish sorts of opposition, Wired Reflexes II should give you more than enough initiative to throw at people to kill 'em before they can kill you. I've been tempted to try a MBW character before but always avoided it--MBW seems ...

Just remember guys, if you aren't willing to run an organization, and pay dues, you aren't allowed to advocate for anything, because theoretically some person might say they are related to you, and then be a dick. Wales isn't saying you can't advocate for what you believe without an organization. B...

Being condescended to by Frank is only one small step on your journey to becoming a man. You still need to be sent to the burn ward by Kaelik and become locked in an argument so obtuse that you're frankly amazed these people even exist. And no, this thread doesn't qualifies for that last one yet. O...

I couple every privilege checkmark with an amazing job living in one of the greatest places in North America (yes, Frank, I'm still jealous) and I am so handsome that people occasionally stop and gawk. That has nothing to do with the topic, I'm just bragging. But no, seriously, DSMatticus (obviously...

I'm very interested by the concept of multiple main quests. Could you tell more about how Avernum dies this ? The Avernum games are pretty great, but he's overselling it. There are usually a number of quest lines that get you the gem-encrusted plot-coupons that you need to unlock the door for the f...

Oddly enough, all of the reports I heard from the PAX area where Next was being played was pretty positive. I don't know how representative that is, though. I did not get to ask Mearls if he had a new job lined up post-release. Which playtest they use? That one where Sorcerers are interesting and W...

It's the same way how silencers/suppressors are illegal while an Ingram Smartgun (with an integral suppressor) is only Restricted. You can always explain away those oddities via some kind of backroom lobbyist deals with corporations. Ingram makes a sizeable donation to lawmaker's campaign funds and...

Nightmare Harvest is very good--it's mostly well-balanced for a number of different character types and the writing is good. Basically everything else is laughably short, unfinished, or A Stitch In Time , which is broken in almost every way I can conceive of it being broken. I love this game, but I...
