Are the Tempo/Measure bits restricted to swords and daggers? How do halberds and spiked chains fit in either way? The principles apply. Tempo = time to finish an action so a long halberd that has just swung may take longer to recover but it can then strike with the butt end too. Spiked chain, flail...

I listened to a real play run by Pondsmith himself, and the world is apparently supposed to be a jokey pastiche of dated pop culture references in nonsense robocop land. Not my favorite worldbuilding! You mentioned there were less concretely defined characters than the fingers in one hand, so perha...

Well if I were to revamp the Cataclysm and not change much of the Dragonlance present day plot... The King-Priest causes the cataclysm with his lust for power, maybe some Evil gods egged him on and got in the way of the goodly gods intervening. The people think the Goodly goods did it and turn their...

Thanks for the review, so Movement being a core attribute, is it super crucial or do you just leave it at average and just assume everyone is within range of stylish cover dashing? Strict measurement of movement sounds like a chore especially when there's helicopters and tanks firing a kilometer awa...

Who turns those souls into bricks? A specific god? Well all the gods are real, there's GOOD and EVIL ones to reward GOOD and EVIL deeds, so there's really no reason to reject all of them. Dragonlance is best thought of as a story like Bad Dudes or Combatribes, a vessel for the main dudes to fight an...

Digimon Last Evolution Kizuna was really touching, especially as it's a series I grew up on. It concludes the original Digimon anime series. Interestingly it's followed up with a TV anime reboot with the same characters. Kinda like Evangelion Rebuild (though the latter may be a direct sequel where t...

Tabletop skirmish games with OK campaign map rules?
I've played Kill Team with exp, but that was leveling up your dudes and picking skills, no territorial control. Looking for a game where your campaign involves capturing territories too or doing something interesting outside of "you have more exp for skills and more currency for gear" like...

Thinking about Action Points in turn based games (video games too) like you have 5 AP and movement costs 1 but shooting costs X Old thread on it: http://tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?t=50335 My feelings on action points like that is... they're not necessary and you're better off with everyone having set a...
