The Gaming Den

Okay, so it's gold-backed paper instead of fiat money. Got it; the economics of that are quite straightforward. That doesn't quite answer my cultural questions, though... which are pressing in a city that does as much trade as Finality. Assume that I'm a Halfling merchant, and I've come to Finality ...

Interesting. So Finality has the fiat currency thing going on, and the people issuing the currency have enough clout to make it stick... in Finality. How universal is that? Does the 'Daxall Dollars' problem still exist, or is there cultural acceptance of the idea of fiat currency? Also, how is the c...

Yeah, let's keep on with the looting of the place.

Don't we need that arrow for later? Try the mirror.

Our name isn't Dirk von Reasonablediscussion. This guy gets facestabbed.

Yeah, let's break down the door. Also, shoot three arrows at once, one with each mix; one's bound to work.

Wow, a choice of directions with absolutely no reason to pick one over the other. And one doubtless leads to horrible death. How clever. Let's go north.

Left. Someone behind that door needs their face stabbed.

Let's avoid the alley, it sounds like an ambush waiting to happen.

Yeah, let's go see the wizard.

Yeah, I think we're probably boned. We probably don't have enough Stamina to survive a boss fight, either way.

May as well see what happens against a Minotaur, though.

Wow, three sucker options.

Bet this wizard can kill us pretty easily, fight or run... but we might be able to use our luck on the question, so we'll wait.

Bah. Open the door, I guess.

We're really getting hammered. I'd say it's about time to chug our potion, and eat two of our remaining meals.

Then lets get that rope.

Eat 2 meals first. Then get that other eye; we've already defeated whatever was here to guard the thing.

Ah, trap. Happens, I guess. Screaming probably won't help, so use the boot.

Right, a giant bell. Either saves or kills us, for an entirely arbitrary reason quite possibly having to do with a trap or puzzle we haven't had a chance too encounter yet.

I say ring the bell.

Diehard, on it's own, isn't all that awesome, true (doubly so if you impose some kind of nerf based on a strange interpretation of the rules, be w/e). That said, it can actually be a fairly awesome feat, in the right circumstances. Delay Death . 3rd-level Cleric spell, touch range, 1 round/level. Ma...

I think you've pretty much hit the nail on the head. I like to run sandboxy games myself, but it's easy for that sort of thing to become a disorganized mess, especially with large groups (nine players is probably too many). Accordingly, you've got a couple options; the carrot and the stick. The carr...

Also, fuck you and suck a barrel of cocks. I am now envisioning a mind flayer with boobs. CANNOT UNSEE!

You're welcome.

There is only one house rule - if Kaelik plays, he has to be Marverni, the Marverni druids have to get #shapechange that turns them into animals with reduced spellcasting ability, and he has to combine Marverni with a custom nation that I will add, based on the Magic of Incarnum D&D supplement....

Your tactics aren't particularly exciting or impressive but it will probably be effective and eventually it will just be "fine you win" because you can't be found. Important items are things that boost your hide and move silently scores, because fighters don't get listen or spot. Especial...

Send this guy after someone.

Well, they're all better than the Crotch of Doom. I strongly disagree, sir. More camel toe in fantasy art!!! Okay, sure; porn is awesome, and there should be more of it. That said, regardless of whether or not you decide to include porn in your book, you should probably not have porn on the cover o...

Zombie apocalypse anyone?

Nope, Ghoul Fever is [Su].
