I taught my son more Chinese history on a 30-minute car ride this morning than he will learn in high school (which he starts in the fall). What did you do today?
I think about what the party would do in my #ACKS2 campaign. They are in the desert (7 hexes from border fort), they have mounts but they would have to abandon their wagon of sweet loots. Powerful visual. They see a mix of infantry and cavalry approaching. Dust blooms. Panic!

This is about right for my 3rd/4th level Sat night crew. They are in a desert, a week away from a Class IV market. One PC is in charge of water, feed, and logistics. Getting magical healing for a serious affliction is even further away.

Maybe I am dumb, but it just occurred to me after 30 years of gaming.... Torches would create enough smoke to smell from significant distance for a lot of monsters. I can't recall a single ttrpg modeling this.
I would like to introduce you all to Puce, the minor god of Silence. I invented him for a cleric in an OSE game. Clerics of Puce shush people constantly, poke snoring people until they wake, destroy bells and similar noisemakers, and sacrifice the loudest goat first. Hail Puce!
I don't know that it should go this far but.... PCs should die. There should be real fear of death happening. There is a reason nobody goes out into this desert that my #ACKS2 players are exploring. Its brutal. If it wasn't, there wouldn't be treasure to be claimed.

This is mathematically true. But I have found that the real power of advantage/disadvantage is that it is so easy to convey to new players.

Working on a new sci-fi premise. A future where people don't talk about a topic unless they actually know something about the subject. Any ideas about what might spin out of this premise?
Occasionally, I feel like a failure at writing RPG content. Then I read stuff like this. elysian.press/p/no-one-buys-… "90 percent of them sold fewer than 2,000 copies" Damn. I have moved 3,285 units via DriveThruRPG. Maybe I don't suck after all.
Been watching the Fallout show. I am considering starting a new Fallout 4 playthrough, of course. I have only one combination left to complete: Railroad main quest + full commitment to Raiders at Nuka World. Hit me with some good ideas for facial design. How punk should I be?
A PC in my 2e D&D party found a Wand of Wonder with 47 charges left. DM is using rules from Dragon magazine for it. Who knows what craziness this will unleash. I got a Wand of Metal and Mineral Detection with.... 7 charges left. I rolled the dice myself. Damn it. Bad luck.
This was my experience as well.

My #ACKS2 campaign also moves at non-1:1 time. One session only had 3 of 5 PCs. They fought a pair of medusae, then traveled 150+ miles to a huge city to pay for flesh-to-stone, then 150+ miles back to dungeon. This took 1 month of game time. 5 PCs delved dungeon next session

I do think that Hobgoblin Steve is a bad idea. However, another path is to seriously design humanoids with very clear differences from humanity and alien thought processes. This is the Orc design from Ambition & Avarice 2 (available on DriveThru). It is very much not human.

Looking for a group to play 1st Edition AD&D. Looking for a sane person that's not going to go swimming then come to the table getting our books all wet, likes to eat fish, and can look cute for a selfie.
Something I read once, that's always stuck with me: if you have so few ideas that you are worried about someone stealing one, you do not have enough ideas to be creative for a living
Ive been watching the Fallout show. It really makes me want to hack #ACKS2 to post apocalypse. Your vault is your first domain, maybe. Or like a Vault City from Fallout 2. Or maybe factions like in New Vegas competing for territory and citizens.
No #ACKS2 this weekend due to caring for an injured family member. The depression is kicking in now... Not quite as much depression as when people I don't know are suffering on the other side of the world, but you should still pity me. My feelings matter! /FakeInfluencerTears

@kingfumaster @ChubbyFunsterGC "You see a grey, smear on the floor ..." "This natural cavern appears to be littered with grey boulders ..." The former orc stronghold is fully signposted in green on red background (equal luminosity). "There is another grey panel on the wall ..."
@heulkrampfer @ChubbyFunsterGC Totally agree. Try telling that to the "no wheelchairs" crowd, though.
@TheOccStevie @ChubbyFunsterGC Fine, but it doesn’t provoke fear like, “your last torch sputters out and suddenly you are wrapped in a darkness so deep it seems suffocating. The rough wall grazes your shoulder as you scuff into it from your next steps. It seems closer than you remembered from just moments ago”
Hey, would you be interested in me sharing my Star Wars alternate history stuff I'm working on for my campaign, so you could use in yours? #ttrpg
@ChubbyFunsterGC I never thought of that until now. Also, it would use up a lot (if not all) of the oxygen in any enclosed space, possibly causing your party to suffocate.
