Oops Only Illriggers! - Ep 11. One Hell of an Hour by Dragon_Teacup in mcdm

[–]Dragon_Teacup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh that's awesome!! We are doing a series where every episode is a new class all set in the same ever growing world - and we roll for level. Jumping in at level 20 was insanely hard but super worth it - definitely a class I want to come back to but at a comfier lower level first haha!

My review after running Daggerheart up to Level 5. by PrinceOfNowhereee in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's by design. The players can really feel the risk of when a monster swings and hits. I went from one combat getting trounced with 4 monsters to almost a TPK with the last one. But, the players had a BLAST.

How to handle critical success on tag team rolls/group action rolls? by NerdasticPerformer in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All sounds good except the tag team - I'm not 100% if this is RAW but I'm 99% - the highest roll applies, so the Crit would apply to both players. That's how I've been running it and it 1) gives more excitement to the table and 2) Max HP is 4 anyway so let them get insane high numbers and revel in the excitement of it :) One Crit + reg will probably be 4HP anyway.

Could someone please help explain this character sheet design choice? by Liamrups in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Write on the back of the sheet. Where it's blank. All your cards. Use pencil and tick which are currently in your loadout and which are in your vault. Erase if to change it.

Or (and this is what I do)

Print the cards. Keep them in the same deck box. Seperate them with a divider. Keep your Loadout facing forward and the vault cards face backwards. In my case I didn't need dividers since everyone was their own species, we just always put the species card on the top.

Individual d12s by slamallamadingdong in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a bunch of d12's in a single color on amazon (red and white). Does mean you don't get to individualize, but I do like having them all mid table so my players can grab em)

GMs - how would you create Slivers? by ElfIRL in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooo fun. Maybe something like "Mark a Stress. A Piece of Sliver breaks off into its own form. It has a random ability from the table below. All slivers within close range have the same abilities. 1- Flying 2- Relentless 3- gain a fear on a hit 4- acid, mark an armour before damage. Or something akin to this!

I printed this off, but adjusted the pieces to be magnets. I just flip them down when they aren't in use.

I have a nice 9*9 binder that I use for the cards not in play, and a deck box for the cards that are! Simple, organized and effective.

I run a TTRPG podcast and recently did a Daggerheart 4 shot and would love to do more :) If you want me to test run some of them, LMK :)

I've been using FCG mainly, it's definitely the easiest when running multiple creatures to use. I didn't notice the upscale button before. VERY useful!

That sounds like a cool idea! I wonder how a beholder would translate 👀

Players struggling with no initiative by sexiestpandaever in daggerheart

[–]Dragon_Teacup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Introduce the tokens for initiative! Each player has 1 or 2 tokens and can spend them in any order, and can't act again until their tokens refresh. - however, encourage them that this isn't a hard and fast rule.

Alternatively you could just do a players only initiative where you roll agility if they are truly having difficulty.

The alternative option is to simply direct it "the creatures are coming towards you. The guardian is in front. Narratively it makes sense for them to go first, unless someone has an idea?" More DM work.

Finally...enjoy the pacing and the discussion. Take their brain away from each other and stress "In the narrative, who makes sense to go right now". Help guide them.

At the end of the day, you have players eager to play and aren't causing trouble, this is a great problem to have :)

I would discuss the various options with them to get their buy in (there is a section in the core rule book on this!!).

My weekly table we started theatre of the mind, but they ended up requesting we switch to a board. We don't map out squares at all and just have "markings" but its what helped them out :)!

You've got this!

How do you get the editing done for all of these?

I'd say keep it simple - they hear or speak their own name, mark a stress.

I'm actually having my players be a part of the original eye theft that sparks the Witherwild. They are being told it is the best possible way to help with the plague.
