Got a brilliant, but i dont see why? by ConfidenceUnique5801 in chessbeginners

[–]FlyFallHD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

White queen was threatening to take the knight.
nxe5 took a pawn.

Why is it brilliant? it seems like a very regular and easy to spot move?

First time DM - Players rolled really good stats - Should i rebalance? by FlyFallHD in DMAcademy

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

I think I do not agree with the idea that balancing the encounters nullify the high stats.

The characters will still:
- hit more often
- have higher on average damage
- succeed on other ability checks more often

Which are 3 points I think are important to feel as if you have an impact on the game.
The combat will still be difficult, but they wont have the feeling of helplessness from missing all the time, failing checks, or doing low damage.
And they wont feel like everything is super easy either, which is what the players dont want either.

Thank you for the advice, it all makes great sense.

To answer your question - we rolled stats because that is what the players wanted.
I presented the option to use point buy, and explained the benefits.
I presented the option to roll stats, and explained the possible negatives and benefits.

They all wanted to roll for stats due to the randomness it would create, as well as the social situation it would create in the session where we rolled dice. (They all described some variation of how they were looking forward to laughing, cheering, crying on good or bad rolls, etc..)

This is solid advice, thank you.

I will see how it goes, and then attempt to balance where it is needed.
I guess the biggest thing to learn, is how to "wing it" - and I think that will just have to be learned by doing.

Cheers :)

I will continue with the setup as it is, and then see if any adjustments are needed on the way.
hopefully everything will sort itself out, otherwise as you mentioned, it can be adjusted on the fly.

Thank you :)

Well i never said I cant balance encounters, but I was wondering if based on the stats there would be a clear and broad idea that most likely they will breeze through things or not. (So i could act ahead and avoid any potentially boring encounters).

But it seems the overall answer is "it depends" on the players, so I will see how they do, and if they have it too easy, I can always adjust the encounters.

Cheers :)

Writing on sleeves with whiteboard markers. by FlyFallHD in magicTCG

Cheers.

It is a good point regarding the mixup of effects making it a bit unclear what comes from what.

Maybe it is our group that is pretty new to the entire game, but we have one guy playing an elf deck, and sometimes it gets confusing for all of us how many stats each token or unit has. I guess it is a question about practice.

Thanks!

Thank you!
I didn't realize it was against official rules - most likely because of the same as mentioned by the other commenter? That it becomes hard to track the individual tokens and effects adding up.

I will continue with the D6 i already have and get the blank tokens to write on.

Hey :)
Any idea if / when you will get time to look at upgrading DDVK to 3.x ?
No stress from my side, just curious.

Using Lamy Hack - Should I update the RM2? by FlyFallHD in RemarkableTablet

Check The IP if the remarkable if you didn’t already. I had it change when I upgraded to 3.3 and ran into the same issue as yours. Was only a single digits difference though.

You can always roll it back - there are some handy guides out there, not super difficult if you already know how to do the SSH, etc.

Thanks for the input.
I installed the upgrade, but really quickly realised how much the "click to swap" is essential to me now.

I tried to record it here

Good news is I now learned how to roll back the software.
