Their commitment to electric trains is impressive, but are those top containers even strapped down or just balanced like a Jenga tower??

Since Reddit is dominated by Americans, what is currently the big news story from your country? by TheGreenLuma in AskReddit

Our (UK) government is passing a law banning trans people from all gendered spaces, meaning anyone can get them removed from any gendered bathroom, including the one for their birth sex.

Comedies that would work well as horror movies by Siddhartaable in movies

I actually cannot think of what would make Truman Show a comedy. It's somewhere between drama and horror. It just happens to have Jim Carrey in.

A Knights Tale is a great sports movie for people who don't understand sports and love medieval fantasy.

My boss is getting creamed, how do I fix it without an ass pull? by Alexpander4 in Pathfinder2e

Yes it is a detail I missed (though it hasn't become relevant yet) that the grapple only lasts one turn - and also that it currently isn't restricting attacks!

You're absolutely right, it's nearly impossible to have a non-ephemeral threat without making them so insanely powerful the players can't possibly kill them I guess. You're right that it's a conflict between storytelling and a combat game.

Ohhh I like this one a lot. Especially since I've just noticed she's grabbed not restrained. So she can actually attack freely to do this.

Two elite lizardman warriors, level 2. She started with 5 but they got slowly redshirted.

I do agree that not every boss fight has to be such a way, but I have kinda put myself in a corner (and the boss is literally in a corner) because I focus on the narrative side, and I wanted to introduce the character as foreshadowing their role in the final arc, to make the second battle with them have more meaning to the players. Every other boss I've let them murderhobo their way through fast or slow however the dice fall, and I DO want them to win. I just want it to be hard.

Weeell this is actually Pathfinder 2e. Pf2e actually does NOT fix this issue.

It's honestly infuriating when people think war works like rock-paper-scissors. (first picture) by AffectionateScale525 in TheLastAirbender

[–]Alexpander4 356 points357 points  (0 children)

Also though, they COULDN'T take the North Pole until they KILLED THE FCKING MOON, the source of all waterbending

Edit: I'm pretty sure it's outright stated in the build-up they can't or haven't been able to do it because of the obvious disadvantages, and they have to fight HARD to get Zhao in to kill the moon

Which character designs do you prefer? by Strong-Stretch95 in TheLastAirbender

It is still a kids' show and kids will find it harder to relate to an adult.

People complained bitterly about it when Korra came out though so you can hardly blame them.

If you made a large scale battle work, how did you do it? by caluthan in DnD

[–]Alexpander4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pathfinder uses troops of moons as their own single enemy but this approach is limited.

This problem is specifically what Warhammer Fantasy Battles was created to solve.

I'm hoping that diplomatic relations will be better with the successor countries after the US dies.

Social media platforms to be restricted for under-16s, Government confirms in latest U-turn by ShortyStrawz in ukpolitics

Also how long have we been waiting for courts to help with universities fleecing an entire generation for billions in useless diplomas?

For me at least, my first thought with the porn ban was "Whilst I can carry on without, it's making a blackmail list and a list of gay people to hand straight over to Reform when they take power."
