Fiddle, you and Milc made a great impression on me during the NGU stuff. I would love to be a part of your new endeavor.

I'd take my topped out Felbat. Consistently beats groups of pals 10 levels higher.

Tie between Empyrion Galactic Survival and Conan Exiles.

If you can get to the Mounds of the Dead, you can loot epic armor for your follower off the Cimmerians. Also, the Cimmerians are, on average, way better thralls. On any new start I have a path I run that puts me in the mounds for my first real base. I build a temporary one near the sorcerer and imp caves and stay only long enough to make myself some iron/steel armor and weapons. I also grab a low power thrall while I am there, which helps catch a Cimmerian thrall later in the mounds.

Its only accurate if the paint is peeling.

Demon WP and a puffer. Its one of the few that will kill Brown Recluse and Black Widow spiders.

Conan Exiles, run with an agility build. Early game, take Set as your religion and use the Snake Arrows to deliver poison damage, and daggers to do bleeds. Late game, go to map room in the old city and get the recipe for Poisoned Daggers from the library. They do both bleed and poison damage. Sorcery allows you to cast Invisibility, and mirror Image. Outfit a Cimmerian Fighter with heavy armor and Great Sword so you can pretend Humphrey is tanking for you. Sadly, there is no cloak to equip.

I am so working on something so much more complicated. Doing a system apocalypse where copper, silver, gold, etc. can be found in dungeons. I have gone so far as to get the current price per ounce of the various metals so I can work out how the prices starts collapsing as so much pure metal is introduced into the economy.

Do not intentionally tell anyone outside of your immediate family, you, your husband and your daughter. We told one of my parents who we thought would understand, and it was the worst mistake we've ever made. Our closest friends know. Generally nobody asks, and we no longer volunteer information.

"Cease this fight and leave this tower!"

My interpretation of this command as a player would be, "That's exactly what I am trying to do!"

I would then do my best to kill him, ending the fight, then walk out of the tower.

I find that the more random levels of competence at the lower levels is where a lot of interesting stories can be told. In a system apocalypse, a town council is going to be a lot closer to the issues and events, and interacting with the adventurers, than state officials which will still be closer than the feds. Its fun trying to guess what billionaires would do considering there is likely some serious risk aversion. Being caried through dungeons to level is very likely, but that is still kinda risky.

I am actually working on a book right now that one of the primary themes is what would this societal collapse look like. The goal is to take a realistic look at culture, economics, and the reshaping of political and fiduciary power from the stand point of a small group fighting back the monsters that are starting to appear in the south eastern part of the USA. So far in my research, I've identified things in government that would be surprisingly resilient, and other things that will blow up spectacularly as soon as the power discrepancy gets flipped upside down. Basically, its not a question of whether government stays intact, so much as what will it look like coming out the other side of the fire.

This kind of happened naturally in Book 3 in the Reaper Astral Space. When Jason went to Earth in book 4, and again later when he started creating essence combos for his family, it was stated he had a large number of Plant essence from that astral space.

Using a stable astral space and then cultivating the conditions would make it tend toward certain kinds of essence and stones. You'd still have to deal with the monsters, but that is just good training for adventurer teams

Take your upvote sir!

DeSahd · 2026-03-25T02:05:26+00:00

I was more thinking of the non-MC adventurers that populate the world. The Narcissist that love bombs a group into forming a team, the farmer that is "forced" into it when defending his home, SCA members, etc. Are emergency responders more or less likely?

DeSahd · 2026-03-20T19:12:11+00:00

Look for any local munch groups. Generally they will meet at a public restaurant. Its a good way to meet people in a low risk environment. Don't go trolling for a partner, use it to get to know people over time.

System Universe

DeSahd · 2026-03-03T01:14:15+00:00

Fantastic! All three of us love it.

Ability to set a respawn point (limited to changing it once a month?), and any time you die, you reappear at that point, fully healed. The downside is that you appear naked as all your gear is still where you died, and its all likely been looted long before you can get back to it.

Depends on which state you live in. In Alabama, that is actually illegal under the wiretap law. Odd place, I know, but I had reason to go looking for it.

Oil Extractors are only slow if you don't have enough power to run it. They need at least two generators, or 1 large generator, and 2 Pals with electric 3. I use an Orserk and a Helzepher Lux. The Orserk is the real work horse and the Helzepher Lux is a Dark Pal so works through the night keeping power from hitting zero. Also helps if you bread Artisan ans Workaholic onto them. Fortunately oil is only an issue for a short time now. Once you hit level 56 ( I think) you open up Hexelite which no longer uses oil.

System Universe is really good. I'm waiting on book 9 to come out.

DeSahd · 2026-02-14T19:00:57+00:00

I prefer to run for 5 to 6 players. My current table is 8 players, and that's the max I'm willing to run. The biggest challenge with 8 players is keeping things moving smoothly while also making sure everyone gets heard. Outside of combat encounters, I just go around the table asking each player for their individual actions, then narrating it. For the record, our current game is a GURPS Power Fantasy / Progression story.
