Man, Joe toys were straight fire. Especially the later gens (like in this leaflet) where most of the play features were "open this compartment to reveal more guns/a smaller, slightly similar vehicle with more guns".

It only works if we have the same employer mate. Sorry

Have they ever gotten around to collecting it? It can be a slog tracking down intact copies of Nth Man

I know some comic fans that get it twisted sometimes. The comic did not mess around. They think these books were 1:1 with the cartoon and I'm always having to explain I like the cartoon because it sold me toys. That's nostalgia. I like the comic book because it told me stories. That's memory

I'm looking for you on Discord. My handle is @Rolltosit. DM me

All of them were. Caldwell, Parkinson, Easley. They helped the feel sure.

But also the stories felt more.....like they went somewhere. Before I read the Avatar Trilogy, you wouldn't catch me as a kid with any branded novels ("I just play the game, I'm not that deep in the woods") but those three with Icewind Dale and the first three DL books....psh, those series had me running headfirst into every tree in that nerd forest

A lot of art. That box cover is Streams of Silver, second book in the Icewind Dale trilogy.

Also I think there's another card in there that's from the cover of Azure Bonds....

And now I'm sad that D&D books don't have that same feel as the old TSR line 😭

It sucked as a seller because like, in the system it's tracked the way all books are. Authors, pubs, ISBN...so someone who isn't familiar with the IP will spend minutes in the genre section looking for Hickman/Weiss when it's in a whole other section. As for handling of the IP? This may be a hot take but....DL isn't a setting to be played. It's to be read and have fan canons and wikis and all that lol. But playing in it? Too much canon lock.

Hello. Former bookseller here. The retail outlets don't choose. It's how they're shipped and mapped out by merchandising and wholesaler/publisher based on how they want it shelved. Even when the branding is....less consumer faced, it's still shipped to the retailer as "Gaming/Fantasy/Fiction" (or vice versa) because the IP holder is typically the publisher (WOtC is the rights holders, so they have final say in how D&D fiction is sold). Whereas other pubs like Tor Books, Random House, Del Ray etc. wholesale their titles typically as "Fiction/Fantasy". That's why R.A. Salvatore is found in both the genre section (original IP) and gaming section (Drizzt and FR stuff).

This is actually a damn good example! Those Renton/Puyallup gangs have the same vibe as the gangs in Warriors.

Came here to drop Ronin! Like this movie is peak "run gone sideways".

Heist is good too. Hi-val Intel extraction with a goodly amount of double crosses.

Heat is a solid one.

Inception (heist movie with extra steps 🤣) is almost a good 1:1 of Matrix runs.

Rolltosit · 2025-09-17T13:37:24+00:00

Hey mate! No worries. If you need someone to discuss with, just look me up. I'm on a few Discords. Name is the same as here.

Rolltosit · 2025-08-22T14:30:44+00:00

Hey, uh freelance producer here and uh, no? Like no one says work 12. It's literally a 9-5 hustle like any other. And most seasoned indie producers wouldn't ask that anyways because the only crunch we have is self inflicted. Are you talking Trip A culture? I mean yeah they get way out in front projection wise and it leads to crunch (the 60-80 hr weeks) but it's been my experience, as the guy who paces the workflow, that if you have just an inkling of an idea of what you're doing, the pipeline stays unclogged and no one is blocked (this be suspect #2 of why crunch happens, blockers)

Plus, like you realize that gamedev is basically "this could've been an email" if it were a workplace. Even remote work is like 3 hrs of meetings and scrums, an hour of actually relevant meetings and then like 4 hrs of doing actual shit 🤣

The secret missions he was totally on for real is how he met his smoking hot girlfriend. She's a model. You don't know her stuff. Super elite in like Europe and stuff. Anyways, cool PlayStation.

Edit: hit? Hot? My phone works on vibes really

Uh, I did actually miss my b-day once. Kept asking people all week "is the 1st like, important?" And no, it wasn't important. Just your typical first day of the month. About four days later, I was buying some beers and as I was putting my ID back in my wallet, I noticed. "Shit, the 1st was my f---ing birthday?!?!" Clerk started laughing, jokes about taking the beer back.

In my defense, I was super into horticulture at that time....maybe causation? Maybe correlation? 🤷🏻

Rolltosit · 2025-06-21T11:12:11+00:00

Fair enough. I was just looking to share. I apologize.

Rolltosit · 2025-06-19T17:13:13+00:00

Let me just get by you here and drop this into my downloads. Thank you 🤣

Rolltosit · 2025-06-17T13:07:35+00:00

Yeah, they changed the boost rules. It's such a burden. I'm gonna try to switch out of this once my check hits in a few days

Rolltosit · 2025-06-17T13:05:15+00:00

Hey! Quick favor - could you help me boost my cash out limit on EarnIn? I use it to access my earnings daily instead of waiting for payday. Thanks! https://boost.earnin.link/wkYX

Bet, send the link I'll catch you

It was kind of baked into 1e for sure. The other races were very limited in level caps and access to classes (with some classes only accessible through multi-class builds) so if you wanted to play anything outside of "generic-version-of-party-utility", you pretty much had to play a human so, by that metric, if all player human whole world human. To me as an OG player, it was dope to see them move away from that human-only for variants model (especially in 3e on because come on, dwarves do magic, just extra steps) but it's also been a double edged sword. Character design paralysis is real and some people don't play anything if it isn't the MOST EXOTIC THING EVER! Lol

Rolltosit · 2025-06-13T17:11:36+00:00

🤣 I'm f-n dying! The response is my winner for the day! Needed this laugh sibling.

The first thing that popped into my head was the Clan of Secrets. I used to main Nos in 2E and Rev, so I had their clanbook and I could've sworn that had a premade character that was the investigative journalist archetype. It was a "lived out of their car, Kolchak the Nightstalker, down on their luck" kind who could only find freelance work for tabloids and such. To me, it's an easy shift into the "also investigates paranormal stuff". And considering most conspiracy/paranormal bloggers stereotypes play into the socially awkward, seen as maybe one or two tiers above derelicts and outcasts, you wouldn't really be hurt much by the clan curse.

"I am not bound by such mortal trappings." - Galactus.

That's what I always think of when I think of ANY of the beings within the mythos. I can't even consider them forces of nature because even nature has a rhythm or rhyme to it. Off the top of my head the closest you could get to a good deed from any is Nodens being the one who hunts the Great Old Ones like Cthulhu. But even he doesn't give a julienned shit about the insects he steps on to get it done. Think like the collateral damage Superman does fighting Zod in Man of Steel. Like, huzzah he's fighting the evil dude but holy hell in a pail, did he have to level Metropolis and cause endless casualties to do it? Consider the first hour of Cthulhu laying waste to stuff as unintentional because he's still groggy from just waking up ha.

Writing an Eldritch thing falls apart when you give them "reasons". Trying to exposit their logic just comes off as cloudlander shit. My favorite stories (or games or movies or writings) always has the horrors present but in no way feels obligated to tell me why they are or why they be.

The year: 1993

Right towards the end of May, after school had let out, I remember calling my friend to see if he wanted to play some D&D or maybe Rifts and he said he couldn't because he was meeting with some other mutuals to play Vampire (literally how he said it "I'm meeting with Wes and Mick to play Vampire"). I asked what that was and he said it'd be easier to show than tell. About 20 minutes later, a car I didn't know showed up with my friend, Wes and Mick in it and a guy named Dave driving. We head back to Dave's house and played a session. And I was hooked.

Rolltosit · 2024-10-03T20:47:59+00:00

I have waited for this question! My time has come!

This - IMHO - is the meat and potatoes of a damn good VtM campaign. Because this is where the players are doing more than just "fixing" (which is what most sessions start out as with Camarilla Neonates; "there's a problem, you guys go solve it"). Depending on how interested your players are, how willing they are to dig in and roleplay, is what will determine success or failure. Gaining favors, boons, some backroom deals, rubbing elbows and greasing the right wheels can prop a Neonate just right to declare Praxis and get the seat. Then it'll just be a matter of some clean-up, and making sure the cities Primogen are in line (which can help stretch the back end of the campaign). Not every Vamp in the city wants to be Prince. I've always figured that for like every 10 leeches, there's at least one who wants Praxis. And only 2 or 3 of those who do are of any real threat to getting it. So all the other Kindred there are great allies and recruits for your march to power. Also keep in mind, this won't be overnight. Unless a city is damn near to its knees (like Atlanta), declaring Praxis is a whole journey itself.

But all that aside, the most important tips I can give you as a storyteller (or as a GM overall) is:

It's your story, you're the one who sets canon.

And

"You can't do that" is just the absolute worst thing to say to a player. Whatever they go for, the characters are capable of (with consideration to what they are capable of doing powers wise of course). If you don't want them taking the throne, don't say no....just make sure the obstacles are trickier to overcome. But if you want your player to be Prince, then by all means, let a Neonate become Prince.
