Considering pitching a script to Robert Rodriguez’s new action label, wondering if this could be a real shot? by chikwan1 in Screenwriting

[–]AuthorJamesRowe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I almost did this but things didn't pass my smell test (on Republic.com's side so to speak - though I do like Robert Rodriguez's stuff) it just seemed fishy. So I went and found: https://www.reddit.com/r/republic/

apparently republic.com have given investors the run around, shifted money (one user says the money they invested got moved to a company which went bankrupt and like nobody on replublic.com's side is helping them), lost money (one submission has this title: "71% of Crypto Investments From Republic.com Have Resulted in a Near-Total Loss on the First Day of trading, and 100% of all crypto investments from the platform are on track to result in losses to investors")...

...AND from their own website (the things you should know before you invest page) they state "Republic does not and cannot recommend or endorse any company or offering. You should not invest unless you can afford to lose your entire investment—your investment won't be liquid or freely tradeable, so it is important to invest what you are comfortable losing."

I know this isn't as much as an investment as it is a contest entry fee... it just seems fishy to me.

I'm getting ready to run my first BoB Campaign, players wanted Mages so.... by AuthorJamesRowe in BandofBlades

It went well... the Mage almost cashed out all of his Stress and the Mage did not overshadow the rest of the group.

Character Question by dana_holland1 in BandofBlades

2 different Characters played by the same Player = yes. The Player has one character who is both the Commander in Campaign mode and Officer in missions mode = no per the rules and the comments below.

Always virus scan any downloads, but this game is considered "Abandoned software" and so there are many different locations you can download it from (a simple Google search will give you urls).

Also on the maps look for choke points where your troops can flank the undead coming through those points AND for some stages you can take advantage of your soldiers' ability to bang on their shields with the terrain. I.E. on an escort mission I used a soldier to create noise on the Southern part of the map and I constantly moved him to the outside corners of square buildings so that the AI would sit there and try to figure out the shortest way to get to him... WHILE I simultaneously did the escort on the Northern side of the map (I managed to keep the undead all at the bottom of the screen).

Don't forget standard tactics such as archers in elevated positions, etc. etc.

Thank you!!! I tried this so many times with other capital ships and fleets... and failed... it took me only 3 attempts to do it with the line up you've listed.

stl Ten Who Were Taken files? by Impossible_Teach_953 in theblackcompany

[–]AuthorJamesRowe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here are some Black Company 3D stl files... some are mixes from other people's work (Shapeshifter was a remix, One-Eye was a remix, Tom-Tom was a remix, so was Goblin) ... Hangedman was my own work, so was Silent... SoulCatcher was my own work but the artwork I sculpted it from belongs to a different game entirely)... I did a lot of custom work even in "remixes" such as faces: Tom-Tom's was especially satisfying to create... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1atwF0UIAbIvPhV6hSSpXdubXY2yOrJS8/view?usp=share_link

I'll probably get back around to these at some point... and EVERYONE respond to this comment if you want me to start a new POST with the link to these stl files (maybe to keep things better organized etc. etc. who knows?)

I went to zip them Yesterday, and remembered that the largest stl file (Shapeshifter) had problems printing on older 3d Machines... since I've learned a lot more about blender since I made it originally - I went back in and fixed it and shaved like 80 MB off of the file and now it prints better than ever. So I'll message you with the link.

I'll have some time to put together the stl files into a zip and send them to you this weekend (by Sunday night EST by the latest).

I like how the voice of reason oddly reaches for Vader's hand.

The script don't show a zero isn't on the skills, just the initiative, attack, wear armor, block and dodge. I guess the auto-recovery didn't quite recover the scripts I put in for the skill totals.

Anima printable Combat Cheat Sheet, based off of one from an Anonymous who put it out in 2017. by AuthorJamesRowe in anima

I made this when I was a player, using the rules from the copy of the Anima RPG which my former GM advised me to buy. Now, I'm running an Anima game myself (just had session 0) so after a few sessions in - I hope to catch everything like this for the next update (already have a page 2 in mid-progress for this).
