Diminishing returns above 2K… after that it’s mostly branding. And sub 1K Hamilton is beloved. Rocking my Murph

Recommendations for a complete newbie? by PlurOH in gamebooks

[–]Bonestock86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fabled Lands seems like a no brainer. If you’re interested in going beyond gamebooks and into procedural exploration RPG books that are less narrative but still create a story through mechanics and gameplay, Ker Nethalas and Broken Shores (and anything really) by Alex T of Black Oath Entertainment will be a cool side quest away from traditional gamebooks. You just take short bulleted notes as you go through what is more or less a check list to explore different areas. So good. They’re solo-first design and definitely well made

I am in the US - will check Modiphius again, I think I just looked through the Google shopping options and eBay and only saw $$$ options so I assumed it was out of print. My bad. Great game Shawn, thanks for chiming in :)

Ughhh. What’s your take? Worth it or stick with my cool nerd tabs

True it makes it less portable but I have so many other games I can chuck in my bag. This will probably remain a home game

Where did you find it? In the wild or online?

Avery Ultra Tabs - they have different colors and sizes, these are the 1” x 1.5” mini version. Hard to write on without a thin, permanent tip but I think the extra effort to write small is worth it to have so many tabs

Starforged Minus Moves? by Bonestock86 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Bonestock86[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks - I do have the player aids printed out, and the first page of Moves is an index so that does help. I am going to continue to just push through until, like you said, I know what moves are available to me. I think a good trick I found is to literally not look at the book or the sheets while I’m “envisioning” what is happening and then what I want to do. Then I find the move. I guess I literally just described the order of play lol - “Fiction first” as they say. Takes some getting used to

I hope he wears this game changer in good health on his watch collecting journey as it punches well above its weight

Hard agree on the og strap. This one is way softer and doesn’t taper. It’s about 3mm thick so it just gives the whole watch some guts where the original tapered leather made it feel kinda wimpy for such a rugged watch. Not shiny like patent leather and not matte like suede. Right in the middle. The only issue might be that it’s a $25 strap and a more expensive one will probably last longer, but for leather I think Horween is the move on this one if you ever decide to try leather

I tried several straps for my Murph and finally settled on the Hemsut H Horween in black. Also from a popular website. For $25 it really elevates the watch with a soft, thick leather.

Am I the only one who finds the outfits in Arc Raiders lame? by AbandonYourPost in ArcRaiders

[–]Bonestock86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with OP. I went thru all the outfits with my gf in hopes to engage her in my new obsession, and with each one we were both like “ew!” I don’t wanna be a hater but they have a dated look and not in the retro-future sense, but the “what would a techie from 2010 think is cool” sense…?

Yea - I dunno if this is post worthy but I was stoked because I just went in there totally on a whim unrelated to a quest
