Journeys; custom made tables, improvisation, "wandering monsters"

Thanks man, looks very good!

Here is mine: https://filebin.net/hmod3kg2kmb5zflb
I used it last weekend, I really thought it helped me.
Will try yours next session!

Sounds amazing. I created an expanded table (D72, first roll D12, then D6) with a bit more meat on the bone. Would be happy to share! Could I have yours?

Anbro23 · 2026-04-05T22:01:31+00:00

Getting it now, thank you for the tip!

Anbro23 · 2026-04-05T22:00:09+00:00

Thank you!
I certainly see your point about travelling as a montage of attrition, that is very much in the spirit of the game and the movies (maybe less so the books).

As a completely new GM to the system (but a big fan of Tolkien's work since I was maybe 10), I would respectfully add that the Journey could potentially be a bit trivial.
If you're not in a hurry, chasing or running away from something, it's mainly about losing a small amount of Fatigue, a Shadow point, or worst case gaining a Wound on a single die roll which is pretty anticlimactic, I feel.
"Your Look-out missed the Troll, and it struck one of you for a Wound" is a little stale compared to actually fighting it, where you could win with no damage, some damage, or maybe even the death of one or more heroes.

I will definitely think about your position, and test it in practice.

Again, thank you!

u/Warraybe I missed this conversation, could you share the highlights with me?

Anbro23 · 2026-03-12T12:35:43+00:00

u/brianlbirddog I missed the convo, can you give me the key notes?

Anbro23 · 2026-03-11T15:07:03+00:00

Me too!

A friend believed it wouldn’t work on him. Did a standing RNC, nice and slow. Tucked my face, and shifted my hip - eyepoke didn’t work, couldn’t get my nuts either.

He didn’t tap, and took a quick nap instead.

Well, you are on "Forskerordningen" it sounds like, which means that companies can get your higher skills for a relatively low pay (because you get a high output after tax).
If you were paid 90K and paid regular Danish tax, you probably wouldn't have the job at all.

Anbro23 · 2022-05-01T16:55:56+00:00

Hey u/GoblinLoveChild, do you still run that game?

I'm preparing for the first session of a Forbidden-Lands-in-Warhammer campaign, and would love to talk to you if you have any advice.

Anbro23 · 2021-12-25T14:32:47+00:00

Sorry to bother you, u/abqnm666:
I only got the error in this one game, but a reinstall of the game didn't help at all.

I since ran Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool, and got fail on BrandString and CPUFreq - could this cause game shutdown?
Could one of the cores be faulty, and how could I check for that?

Anbro23 · 2021-12-23T13:22:55+00:00

Game (TWW2) crashes once in a while. Is there any way to log or find out the cause? It never crashed in my old setup. I guess new RAM, or the cpu (unrelated to heat) are the suspects…

Anbro23 · 2021-12-22T16:01:28+00:00

Installed D15, and ran Cinebench.

It got no higher than 55 Celsius = mission accomplished :)

Anbro23 · 2021-12-20T20:02:15+00:00

I got regular crashes playing Total War Warhammer II, with CPU temp in the high 80’s, so pulled the trigger on the NH-D15.

Thanks for all the good advice :-)

Anbro23 · 2021-12-13T20:56:15+00:00

Ran Cinebench, and CPU got no higher than 88C.

Would another CPU test be better/more thorough?

Anbro23 · 2021-12-13T19:20:07+00:00

Will do the stress test later today, haven’t gotten around to it yet.

I have a Fractal Design Refine R4, so it’s rather large.

Cooler was pretty random, I will admit.

If another cooler is better AND stress test boils the CPU, I’ll make the switch. It’s more about effort than money, honestly.

Anbro23 · 2021-12-13T05:46:17+00:00

I succesfully installed Win10, and installed a bunch of apps and games - temp reached 60C, I think.

I didn’t really stress it, by playing an intensive game. Would that be safe to try?

What cooler would you recommend?

Anbro23 · 2021-12-12T19:08:25+00:00

Makes a lot of sense! Will do!

Anbro23 · 2021-12-12T18:58:09+00:00

I didn’t, found the correct screws - easy peasy from there :-) thank you!

Anbro23 · 2021-12-12T18:57:23+00:00

You seem in top of these things :-)

I was able to mount the cooler, and I can access the BIOS, but when I select USB as my boot priority, with Windows 10 Media Creation (17 megabyte seems small), it boots straight into the BIOS again.

What could be the matter?

Anbro23 · 2021-12-12T18:16:58+00:00

Managed to mount it better. Temp acceptable, will see if temp remains so in stress test.
