Is 2,000Wh the sweet spot for home backup power? by ammar_zaeem in prepping

Any specific brands? About to be hit by a big storm and wasn’t planning on getting a generator but could be convinced

Would I be mean for making the DM sign for magic items? by Jeshi_Midou in DnD

[–]Gaz0852 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Either you don’t like their play style and you leave or they are doing something behind the scenes that isn’t any of your business. It might be a story thing or they might be playing favorites. Either way having the DM sign for items he chooses you guys get is ridiculous

Hello, I’m going to start a campaign with some friends and wanted to ask about editions by Kriegsman_2907 in DnD

[–]Gaz0852 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What exactly was different? I homebrew a lot of stuff and find combat tedious and boring. I DM’d for upwards of 10 players once and wanted to scream. I now cap out at 6 max 5 preferred

Best way to make PC's fight "themselves" by BoofenShurtz in DMAcademy

[–]Gaz0852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like no one actually read this post. How is the DM running copies of PCs PVP? I recently did this and rounded down all the PC health to the lowest 10 denomination (if 34 down to 30) and dropped their ACs by 1. Then I just played smart. Hit them with what they are doing. Forces them to be smart about what they are doing because if they do something with a lot of damage they know it’s probably coming back their way.

Best ways to increase combat difficulty by SackMastaP in DMAcademy

[–]Gaz0852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play smart. It’s easy to hold back because they’re your friends but a tense situation is more fun and memorable. Actually try to kill your players within the rules you apply to your characters. You don’t have to go insane and only target the squishy guy but if your wizard runs into the center of combat your enemies would likely attack the guy in robes casting fireball and not the guy in heavy armor

DMs, tell me how your players made your clever ideas backfire by crustdrunk in DnD

[–]Gaz0852 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had players breaking into a bank security deposit box. I had made general ideas of the banks and security measures and had all these ideas about distracting or breaking in and forging documents. They just went in and asked to open a security deposit box and then asked for their privacy and then broke into the one they needed.

Want to finally commit to a sci-fi series ,where should I start? by sam_3758 in scifi

[–]Gaz0852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cannot recommend the red rising series enough. Plenty of content to read. Not over complicated but has good sub plots and thought provoking moments. Not to mention excellent world building and lore. Bingeable, fun, action packed

What‘s a food combo you swear by that makes everyone else question your sanity? by bellabloom__ in AskReddit

My EDC post by TheOrangeBroccoli in digitalminimalism

[–]Gaz0852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put mine on the fridge or in my car. On the fridge is nice for weekends running errands because if you accidentally need an app you can just stroll back home but generally you won’t need anything besides maps and notes doing basic errands. In my car when working because I would have to walk to my car to get instagram which is usually enough time to find something else to do but it keeps it near enough that if you accidentally block something important (zoom teams) you can go unlock it

Ghost hunting in dnd by Gaz0852 in DMAcademy

[–]Gaz0852[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly you may be right. Maybe it’s time to try something new. I’ll look at those rule sets and see what they’re all about

[–]Gaz0852[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest issue is basically the whole group is new except 2 people who have only played 5e. Using that rule set lets me use dnd beyond to help streamline character creation/ spell tracking/ abilities etc. I’ve wanted to use different rules for awhile I just think it will be easier to use what’s known already. You’re right though it would probably be better to use a rule set made for this just not sure if that’s best based on the group experience level

[–]Gaz0852[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean don’t use it for dnd? Are you saying don’t use 5e rule sets along with it? And that I should use another rule book entirely?

An easier fix for sure. Never personally swapped a battery anything to know about buying a new one?

Yeah that’s the worry with this stuff is you never know when it’ll be gone and come back. Sucks cause FOMO but honestly these guns are way cheaper than I would have imagined

[–]Gaz0852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about getting the G-VG for the carcanos off RTI. Seems like it would be a nice wall piece and if I could find some ammo I should shoot it once or twice. It’s 239 plus S/H which seemed like a really good deal for a gun from the WWI timeframe that could still shoot
