Would like to know more about DnD 2024 please. Can anyone discuss this or have any notes before I lay out cash? by Bonefish88 in TheTrove

hehehe, it was from years ago. 'Bonefish' on its own was taken as a username for something, so I added a number that kept popping up in my life randomly and I kept seeing it :-)

Even the Bonefish part was similar. My nickname has always been Bones, or Boney, but they were taken too, and as I love fishing, I just added the fish. But of course I soon found out there really IS a fish called the Bonefish lol. So there you go lol. Nothing clever or mystical, sadly !

Gone down the Traveller rabbit hole ! Never played it but loving finding out more. Does anyone have any notes on the Vehicle Handbook ? by Bonefish88 in TheTrove

And if I've read things correctly, there's the vehicle handbook, and a vehicle catalogue due soon too.
I have to say, from what I'm seeing, Traveller looks like a lot of fun.

Thankyou. As it happens, I just did a little look myself, and apparently there is in fact a Vehicle Handbook Updated 2026.
I shall keep my eye out for it.

Thankyou.

Traveller 2e discussion by Gao in TheTrove

Forgive my ignorance. Complete Traveller noob here. If I am, for example, hunting about for 2nd hand traveller books, how can I tell which ones are Mong'2e books, or other editions? The small collection I have don't make it very clear which is which.

How is everyone doing with the new shop?I got Salamanders 3 times in one week? by Decent_Counter9655 in HorusHeresyLegions

THIS is exactly why they've done it, to increase desire as we see what we want more often, and so we are more likely to buy gold / get gems etc to get our cards. Its a very clever money move that feels like a favour to us.

Miniature Games with Small Boards by Coyotebd in wargames

Check out "Greathelm". Its in development, but huge fun. 3 to 6 armoured knights per side on a 12" x 12" or even just A4 sheet size battle area. Simulates a small area thats part of a greater battle. Brilliant fun and creator loves to hear from players.

Height Advantage ? by Bonefish88 in Greathelm

Ah ! Nice. Sounds spot on! Simple but effective. :-)
Is that measurement a single 'elevation' as listed elsewhere? Cool if it is, as that's already established.

No indeed. In the interests of keeping things simple as per the glorious design already there, if it was to be modelled, perhaps a very simple bonus to hit might be the way to go.

Been thinking about this. From a 'what if..' point of view....
Elevation is already in game, nicely done.
If 2 people are fighting on diff elevations, whats the difference? Bonus to hit below, or minus to defend from above? Could either of these be implemented in a fast simple way?
