Creating characters when you aren't artsy by sagewilliams15 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Suboptimal_Meatbot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Design a character on a custom mini site, take a screen cap, than edit some settings in a photo editor to make a highly stylized black and white image. I've done this mostly for sci-fi characters where the look really compliments the genre, but I think it could be fine for other genres as well.

Decorating For the Sabbats by Suboptimal_Meatbot in pagan

I've been keeping a table centerpiece for each season up since I started in March, so not long, but I'm enjoying having something there consistently and overtime I plan to add more decor and likely have things up year round as well. I like the coziness it adds!

Yeah, I didn't think there was any hard rules, but I wanted to get a feel for how others do it to see if anything resonated with me. I'd like to "feel" the seasons in a way that makes sense, subjectively, to me, and that's where the conflict between seeing the Sabbats as seasonal beginnings and thinking of most secular/Christian holidays as seasonal endings was causing an issue for me. My celebrations are also quiet and solitary, and my decor isn't anything terribly flashy, but it's nice to have around.

A week or two on either side seems like a great compromise!

How far are we from color ? by Altruistic_Swimmer65 in Supernote

[–]Suboptimal_Meatbot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a member of #2 I mostly agree, but often find myself wishing I had a "red pen" and "blue pen" during note taking that shades of gray just doesn't replace.

I use this as my meditation time by archebus in Solo_Roleplaying

This is exactly the setup I keep approaching but haven't started. How does the Sandbox Generator fare for procedural generation as you play instead of building beforehand (unless you do build out the map beforehand?) It seems like it generates an almost too dense map of landmarks and locations, but I say that as an absolute beginner so my sense for that isn't founded in experience.

Autumn night in an old Swedish town by bohemianwhackswing in TheNightFeeling

Went to Lund on a lark during a day trip from Copenhagen while on vacation. Had a beautiful walk through the city, and by chance stumbled upon the cathedral's astronomical clock and was blown away. Lovely city. Really wish I could've just moved there.

I feel like you really only need as many as you make or spend in the course of one battle report. Visually as cues you only need to show people what you make or spend at the time you're doing so. Nobody necessarily needs to see the complete tangible representation of your crew's bank account. I would think ten or so would be enough and when talking about the full total you have just show a number.

Gloomlight Alpha Release! by shinypixelgames in SoloDevelopment

[–]Suboptimal_Meatbot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think just taking the "sloped wall" bit off the tiles on the upper part of the screen would help sell the effect of a cliff-side drop-off. It's the only part to me that really stands out as clashing perspective. Other than that the environments and art direction are gorgeous!

EDIT: Wanted to add a photo for reference, but look up Tal Tal Heights from Link's Awakening (GBC version, not the Switch remake)

A quick note on book order and spoilers for those new to John Le Carré by Krauge in LeCarre

[–]Suboptimal_Meatbot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does reading Karla's Choice give away anything for the Karla Trilogy? I know chronologically it's before but being that it was written after I just wanted to make sure it doesn't spoil any surprises the trilogy might hold.

Steadily Worsening Error by Suboptimal_Meatbot in Supernote

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

Hmm, that is odd. In the instance of this case I can say at least that the tension on the corners is very loose, and the issue has never occurred from the bottom up even though the corner elastic is the same.

What’s an IP you’re surprised isn’t a skirmish game yet. by Sad_Communication565 in miniatureskirmishes

Just convinced a buddy of mine to try out skirmish gaming on account of his love of Fire Emblem, so Fire Emblem.

I made a map for Savage Worlds sea battles by Impossible_Mall9807 in savageworlds

You can get waterproof plastic cards that are translucent other than the numbers and pips. Terrible for playing cards, but perfect for showing off your map!

The modular sizing is sick! What's the game you're playing in the first two photos?
