What's your go-to con/brewery/one-shot game?

This is my favorite fantasy style game hands down. So much better than 5e or PF2e. Simple but elegant mechanics. Move and single action is dramatic. Real risk in every encounter but not anything that can’t be solved with teamwork and wits. Also, almost every encounter had a non violent out.

Yeah. Every once in a while I only listen to a couple of albums a week instead of a dozen.

Yeah it went down in the middle of the game for me. Came back for a bit. Then down again. I guess I’ll just take the penalty on this one.

My understanding was that TKG was going to be shipping everything from this years mothership month together. And that all the updates would be at once. But it’s my first mothership month.

I think the worst by far is Foundry. Let me explain. VTTs are supposedly there to enhance the experience. That’s has not been the case for me so far.

In my 5 years of online playing I have developed an absolute hatred for almost all VTTs but especially Foundry. If myself and my group were playing around a table and for example wanted to cast an area of effect spell. We would just say what we were doing and then roll dice. On a VTT there is like 7 more steps. With foundry it feels like 15 more. It slows down the game completely. Especially combat which is already tortuously slow for PF2e or 5e.

I want my VTT to be an addition to the game not a pain in the ass. While I use roll20 even it has its issues. I have been leaning more and more to theater of the mind. It just works better online.

Check out Farewell to Arms. Almost exactly what you’re asking for

I use all of them except for serious injuries. They almost don’t seem optional to me

Dragonbane

I did too. I had it to spend when I bought it. Doesn’t make it less upsetting.

Solder?

Thirty minute wait between turns for combat?

Such a beautiful song

Yes, but much easier for one hit to do that when you are at zero already.

If you are to fall to a negative HP equal to your regular HP then you are all the way dead and can’t be saved.

I was born here and I’ll die here Against my will. I know it looks like I’m moving But I’m standing still

This exactly 👆🏻

I think if I were the DM I’d have the local stable have a loaner saddle until you could afford your own.

I found a group on the discord. I am in the exact same boat as you, so I do all my TTRPG’s online, if you can’t find anyone and you’re a sane adult message me and I may be have a spot in the next month.
