I'm sorry for your bad Game Master and all the time you lost. FWIW, when designers say balance just gets in the way and are dismissive of poor performing GMs that really kinda makes me wonder what exactly it is they think they are offering with their products. I say this because I would think that ...

I just like to use Frank as a filter on threads (seriously, it's often more efficient to go through a thread for Frank's posts, and only then read posts he's responded to). Also, it's a bit repetitive and boring to see Yet-An-Other-Shitty-Game-Writer spectacularly fail in their attempts to denigrate...

Any advice on building anything out of green/black for Standard format? There's a tournament going on Saturday; and I want to see what one of those is like for the first time. I've currently got a smattering of Dominaria, Kaladesh, Amokhet, Magic 2019, Battlebond, cards. As well as enough Ixalan to ...

However, character creation in Numenera isn't as rigid as one might expect and a Tough Nano Who Wields Two Weapons At Once could be just the fighter character a player is looking for. Hybrid character concepts are one of the (few) things Numenera is really good at. I feel like I'm being unfairly fa...

When playing Draft, you could be evil like some Kamigawa players I once saw grab all the good cards regardless of color, lose the tourney, and walk out with choice sales. In that draft I saw three Sensei's Divining Tops come my way, an uncommon, and I grabbed all three. They jacked up to $15 apiece...

Getting back into M:tG (after ~10 years)
I was introduced to M:tG by a friend around 1993-1993; and the first cards were a starter box & some boosters that I & my brother shuffled into a oversized deck and proceeded to misplay the game for months, before we started going over the rulebook to figure out how to really play the game. ...

One thing that comes to mind in distinguishing melee weapons, is that there aren't the sorts of differences people often assume. Power vs Agility - a hammer, an axe, or two-handed non-staff weapon are harder to attack with, but always hit very hard; a sword, dagger, rapier, staff or pole weapons hav...

I think that would hit most of the high notes. Players would notice and care about the biggest piece of treasure in every treasure pile, but they wouldn't be forced to use every random magic cloak or hat they found and could make some reasonable stylistic choices. -Username17 I found this to be tru...

I must say It's a great relief to hear that since once I've had to endure a couple years of some local Exalted fanboys barking about how awesome their system was and I trying to pick up the books and failing to understand how the fuck you were you supposed to run a campaign with that.
