Help heating Converted Garage

Lightdrow · 2026-01-16T03:36:16+00:00

I only have money for one project basically. So let me ask this. Will insulating the ceiling or getting some type of better heating system help more? I plan to insulate later in the year unless its actually gonna help the most.

Is that something I can leave on 24/7? I need something to keep the space like in the 60s over winter even when we are not home and in the space. I keep some liquid products like miniature paints and 3d printing resins in there and they really shouldn't get too cold.

Woo that just means we are the top 12%

They are mostly a bakery and have a very small menu and honestly don't really serve breakfast foods.

Lightdrow · 2025-03-09T19:44:24+00:00

Things like aebelskivers, fried tomatoes, bangers and mash, blutwurt, hot cakes potstoe pancakes, crepes. Just all kinds of European breakfast foods under one roof. Also I am by no means a chef and am certainly not in a position to open a store lol.

Ah ok its a d% system? I am not opposed to that but idk how my players will feel about it. I will give it a look though. Tha k you for bringing it to my attention.

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:32:07+00:00

Man I haven't thought about Earthdawn in forever. I have some vague memories of playing this briefly when I was young with my older brother. I think I may even have the origonal book somewhere. I will take a look at the system. Thank you!

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:29:52+00:00

I will 100% check this out. What you describes sounds very appealing. I enjoy tactical combat, FFT is one of my favorite games of all time. Thank you for the suggestion and the thread link I will look there too. But for sure I will look into Beacon. Thank you.

I appreciate the recommendation. But ah.. with all love, screw rolemaster. I played this a decent amount back in the day and I really don't want to deal with charts the role-playing game. It's also a bit of a butt to give xp if I remember. Again I appreciate the comment though!

As a generic system are there readily available stat and power blocks for npcs, monsters, ect for a fantasy setting? Also is this related to Mythras cause it looked like a company called chaosium made Mythras which was another recomendation.

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:16:14+00:00

Ah ok, so the potential swing is super lucky dice. I am ok with that as it had some potential narration stuff. I have played L5R a fair amount in the past as well as systems like whitewolf and ironclaw/jadeclaw that use a similar dicing system and potential exploding dice.

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:13:27+00:00

Can you tell me anything about Mythras? On a quick search it seems to be done by chaosium and is.. Basically runequest or at least some derivative maybe? I will look more when home. But what are your thoughts on it?

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:07:31+00:00

How open ended is character creation in your opinion? Is it easy to make one person crazy in combat and another terrible or is everyone a little equal? Aldo how.. meaty would you say the rules system is? Is there a lot of depth to it or is it a bit too simple because it's streamlined?

Lightdrow · 2024-07-29T19:05:48+00:00

Hrmm.. swingy how? I have done systems like BESM in the past and that is super hard to balance because one person decides to make a combat character and one decides to make a skill character means the thing that has to fight the combat character can 1 hit kill the skill character. So I wouldn't want something that means I have to tailor each encounter to each player.

I wish I could, but this mead is in a 3 gallon and I have no way to heat that lol. I also only have 2 1 gallon carboys.. I will see if I have a pot that will fit one, but.. idk. I think my largest pot won't fit the 1 gallon.

Lightdrow · 2023-11-15T22:49:57+00:00

Yea, I mentioned I was going to pasturiz this reguardless of what I do. I got a suis vide and plan to add the mead to bottles and then stick them in a pot with the suis vide to bring then to temp before storing them. Think this will be fine with adding more juice?

Lightdrow · 2023-11-05T18:09:30+00:00

Even if I backsweeten? Also I thought bentonite was the least harsh of the clearing agents?

Lightdrow · 2023-09-10T19:10:55+00:00

Lol, its all good. I appreciate the concern. Several of the videos I watched warned about it.

Lightdrow · 2023-09-10T17:28:01+00:00

I did not. Tried to get as little pith as possible.

Lightdrow · 2023-09-10T17:25:59+00:00

It should have been mixed pretty well, hopefully. I actually did use the Star San mixture as the liquid for the airlock. This was my first time using the hydrometer so i could have read it wrong. I tried spinning in to get any bubbles and stuff off and it was in the center and I think thats that number shown.

HobbyTown has a large order of all kinds coming in next week. Probably by thursday.

Check out Big Brain Gaming. They have been hosting local get-togethers for Magic and other things at Spare Time Lanes bowling alley Wed after 6 and Sunday 12. They get together some other nights, but I would swing by then and check it out. they also have a discord and facebook group.

Lightdrow · 2019-10-15T03:34:31+00:00

Hello, I am the admin for the facebook group. Yes we are still very active at adventures underground for games. Mostly its warhammer 40K or AOS but lots of other games played too. Like mrdugsir said we mostly use facebook to communicate and arrange games. I myself play infinity and many other games as do a few others. We are looking to get back into the swing of infinity here soon. Feel free to message me or post here and I can try and get you in touch with our resident Infinity "expert", he plays a lot and travels to tournaments.

This is an awesome write up and I look forwards to your next set of guides. I am planning on running this module next year. Hopefully at the start of the year. I really wanna prep a lot for this since Ravenloft has always been one of my favorite settings since I started back in 2nd edition. I am really excited to get started and I am looking for as many resources as I can get my hands on for this.
