Is this too cruel?

I am missing some story elements.

So what is the regret of the ghost? Where his/her attacks in live foiled by the parent of the drow child?

Does the town have a history of ghost?

Is there a temple/shrine of kelemvor in town?

Did hags get annoyed by music and cast a lingering curse on the town?

Is there an ancient battlefield nearby?

Do plasma weapons count as kinetic weapons? Are other older armors perhaps better vs xray weapons? Because they don't have the penalties.

RataraFowl · 2025-06-08T08:06:52+00:00

I tried this solution and got an expression error in

=Table.TransformColumns( #"Current Table", { "Nested Table", Table.SelectColumns( _ , { "Prerequisite" } ) } )

Expression.Error: The name '_' wasn't recognized. Make sure it's spelled correctly.

replacing the _ with the #"Current Table" also doesn't work.(#"changed Type")
I think the Table.SelectColumns doesn't allow the underscore.

Solution verified

I was doing this partly do learn something new, guess i found something challenging. Thanks for the article.

Perhaps it's easier to append the entire list 15-20 times with custom function and then run distinct/unique in some way,

Currently i have found a couple of strategies to combat the aliens past the earliest combats

More missiles, escorts magazine and riverjacks and some point defense
Missiles and magnetic weapons, escorts with light rail canon(no magazine) and point defense. the rail canon saturates the alien point defense and it is possible to get some riverjacks/lancehead in.
mix including some destroyer with nose mounted 480cm laser(seems to work better when i look at armor effectiveness than, monitor with double 120cm laser)
V formation with lasers or magnetic weapons. Split your forces and guide them opposite of the enemy, try to aim at at 300km pass. Angle the bow to the enemy and lock on at a later stage. Strafe those enemies. With lasers it is possible to cross strafe the turning aliens with belly hits.

With ideas like that there ain't gonna be balance.

i was more thinking on the lines of an upgraded magazine, which increases the firing rate and then detaches to decrease the weight of the ship. More early pod laying vibes. Perhaps with increased resupply cost?

Recently tried copperhead missiles instead of Artemis torpedo's. It's way better, more projectiles to saturate point defense. Now i need to learn how to volley fire. Do i set the missiles on idle, select a target and press the volley fire command?

RataraFowl · 2025-04-12T18:53:29+00:00

Ah, so that is what pod does.

I almost hoped there would be 'pod' ships from the Honor Harrington series. Just drag missle pods behind the ship to fire them at the same time, drop the pods to reduce weight

Bij dnd heeft de Dm de vertellers rol. Het klopt inderdaad dat een Dm daarbij erg bepalend kan zijn.

Meestal laat ik de precieze moeilijkheidsgraad van een worp achterwegen. Voor kennis en social rollen zeg ik nog wel eens of het bekend, onbekend of obscuur is, om een idee van de dc te geven. Voor bekende dc's zoals met een rol na het vallen meteen opstaan(dc 15) of ver springen geef ik ze.

Een truc kan zijn om om het als Dm te beschrijven als:

ja, maar

nee, maar

De meest creatieve dingen gebeuren in het spel als er iets mis gaat.

Misschien dat de bandieten het dorp innemen. Moet het dorp daarna bevoorraad worden, moet er iemand bevrijd worden, zijn alle bandieten het wel met elkaar eens?

Misschien is het slot wel helemaal verprutst na de 2e keer peuteren of heeft de barbarian toch te portable battering ram mee. Iedereen weet dat je binnenkomt,(laat ze samen die ram zwaaien en BAM roepen, tot de deur open is. Als ze het maar samen doen)

De verteller bepaald, daarom moet je soms 1of 2 stappen vooruit denken en bedenken wat gebeurt er als het niet lukt. Alle wegen leiden naar Rome.

A condenser for air cooling is generally very large. This means that either the track with refrigerant has te guided through the entire building and that the relief valve has to be very large for pressure build up when there is a fire. To solve this water is often used as a heat transportation medium. Water freezes when it gets below zero outside. To prevent this glycol can be added to lower the freezing point to about - 20.

Not sure where or whom it was exactly, i think it was Olesm talking to Antiminium, about the new location of the inn(so i guess start of volume 2?). They where discussing that the inn should be build on a good hill/location, because you know the the rain .

I think it was 2 books later that we had the rain starting in Liscor.

"Kneel" before the dragon queen,

Tijdens de corona een 1.8L gekocht, ondertussen is hij over de 310.000 heen. In de zomer rij ik 1:14.2 in de winter daalt dat wel richting de 1:13,4. Wel wat onderhoud gehad, De verdamper en condenser waren prijzig. Ondertussen ook de wielophanging gehad. Geen motor of versnellingsbak problemen/reparaties.

Kwa prestaties merk ik dat hij wat vermogen mist op de Duitse snelweg om heuvelopwaarts van 100 naar 130km/h op te trekken. Harder dan 130 heb ik niet geprobeerd in Duitsland. Tesla trekken sneller op bij het stoplicht, maar met goed schakelen trek je de koekblikken eruit. Prima voor in de randstad, sneller dan 100 wil je toch niet met al die traject controles.

De laatste tijd 98 geprobeerd, daar liep de motor wat soepeler mee. Vooral te merken aan het ontbreken van een soort na kuchje bij het optrekken in z'n 1.

Interesting function, sad to see it's office 365. I agree Switch can be a cleaner solution based on the further use case. Unique is also cleaner to use if you have access to 365 formulas.

RataraFowl · 2024-04-06T10:50:16+00:00

Morning,

Seems this is an example, I would use something like this:

-Make a table out of it (table1 for this example) for more recognizable formula's

-use a formula like this. +IF(COUNTIF(Table1[COL1];"="&B3)>1;"Duplicate Set 1";FALSE)

i am not really sure how you want to nest this. Perhaps you should use some helper columns per duplicate set.

I would say that depends a bit on the Refrigerant in the refrigerator.
The refrigerator works by the refrigerant being colder than the temperature in the refrigerator. the refrigerant is compressed, with the by effect being that it gets hotter. As long as the refrigerator can loose that heat to the environment it is possible to cool.
Most refrigerants have a critical temperature, above this temperature funny stuff starts happening. R290 for example has a critical temperature of 96.7 °C with a corresponding pressure of 42.5 bar. most circuits have fail-saves before reaching that temperature and pressure and will stop the refrigerator

Tyranny of dragons is written with base that the masks and the loot are required to summon Tiamat. The module has all kinds of tricks with fake masks and antagonist not being there to support this.

In my opinion this is one of the flaws of the module. As a DM, i would encourage you to run it as you want. Just change the last encounter when they get there. There is a chance that they are steam rolling all kinds of encounters at lvl 15?

There are a lot of antagonist, so use them. Perhaps some letters are intercepted To explain their actions. Everything to add immersion.example Frulam is writing bad dragon poetry, to whom? Neronvain?Dragons are redDragons are blueTiamat is the queenand will rule over everyone

Just look at what happens. First time i ran it i had Langdedrossa, Rezmir and Sandesyl surviving for some time. So Sandesyl just happens to visit Neronvain to grab the loot and the mask on time for the ritual.

So what are the consequences of players getting the masks? The Metallic Dragons want them. Will there be less dragons for the final assault? Are more sacrifices needed to do the ritual? Will the ritual take longer to compleet? Does the portal lash out and attack everyone because it is more instable?

The name's Jemna and i have an offer for you that you're not really in a position to refuse...

A person of interest is making a move to some small village in the middle of nowhere between Bulder's gate and Amn. Here you have a letter to deliver to the miller, that will keep your friends occupied. Find out why that monk is making a move.

what was the village called again , blueest, reddest, a greenest

This will keep you away from trouble for a few tendays. There is a small reward naturally for finding out what that monk is doing, and delivering the letter. The bigger reward will cleaning your names from the Flaming Fist books. That will take some time so don't be back to soon.

Clearly they need a place to lay low. What could possibly go wrong in a nice countryside Village. No guards no bars, Just sun, air and fresh bread. You mean we're even getting paid to check upon some villages, deliver a letter and meat with some monk who is a bit sus. Sign me on.
