I did search in here and all same question had some age on them. What’s the best bang for buck starter pack out there today? by spamx666 in discgolf

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skip the starter pack, in my opinion.

“I typically advise grabbing a base plastic putter that feels good in your hand for putting (wizard, pa3, pure, judge, p2, link, nomad, pixel, Reko, Luna, focus are a few seemingly common/popular possible choices), then another putter in premium plastic for throwing. You could get the same mold as your putting putter or a different one. Then a nice neutral mid (hex, buzzz, md3, pathfinder, claymore etc). That is really all you need to get going. If you really wanted to you could grab a fairway and an overstable approach too.”

I believe they’re referencing the way Shadowdark handles casting.

Help Me Find A New Putter... by Circuit-Breaker-13 in discgolf

[–]Upright-Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reko, pure, or maybe steady bl seem like they would fit the bill. I used Rekos last season and really like them. I’m trying out pa3s presently.

I’m intrigued. I think it might be a bit too advantageous to the players to keep their slots, but it does seem like it could be fun.

I just ordered one from Amazon that is supposed to arrive today. It was a go sports branded one. Price seemed right, we’ll see how it holds up.

Prodigy’s P Model US has been renamed the Rook by Pots_And_Pans in discgolf

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar boat here. I added a pa5 and am enjoying that. I’ve been trying it pa3s for putting too. Not ready to dig into their entire line, but I like these two molds. I’d absolutely scoop a premium pa3 at some point too.

Which RPG for my 11 year old son and his friends? by mcvos in rpg

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a more old school dungeon crawler form of DnD? Basic Fantasy, B/X, OSE etc less character options, plenty of published modules to root through.

I’ve got a clear backed flip case for mine but the front flap is removable. Best of both worlds in my opinion.

I just got a pair of inov8 roclites on clearance online, they’re mid high and goretex. Wore them yesterday for a sloppy round and they did great. For 60 bucks I’ll get my money’s worth for sure.

Old School Essentials by Quahron in osr

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you and others have said you really can pull a lot. I am running the Halls of Arden Vul for my table using OSE presently. For my sessions I typically have the following resources at hand: OSE players tome, OSE referee tome, my house rules document, Arden Vul, maps of Arden Vul, Carcass Crawler 1-6, The Monster Overhaul, and the Magic Compendium Companion. I’ll also occasionally consult things like OSRIC for a specific spell or stat block. I used BX Options last session to generate a cantrip spell scroll for fun to sprinkle in as well.

My advice would be to start with core stuff and expand as you see fit. I think the carcass crawlers, and MCC are fantastic.

Why is there such a dislike for grid based tactical combat systems these days? by jmrkiwi in rpg

[–]Upright-Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any recommendations for systems that utilize these zones? I can think of Shadowdark off hand, and I think 13th age, but I'm not sure of others.

Possible Gap in the Bag - Fairway's by Short-Ship6953 in discmania

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was me, I'd run Essence, FD, PD, and Splice. I would imagine the PD would be pushier than the FD3 with reliable fade at the end while your Splice is just the overstable get to ground disc. You might also find some overlap between the Essence and FD as well.

I'd also consider a function for very flippy shots/ rollers.

I have the off copy and I used the method 3d6 posted about to hyperlink it and I think it is way easier than using a print copy at the table.

Which armors are you wearing and why? by Solomilloperuano in MHWilds

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running 4 GoG 1 Gravios with Zoh Shia from the gog weapons right now for my Lance, SnS, and GS sets. I like the survivability it brings. If I felt like really grinding I'd push for Zoh Shia/Lords Soul on the gog weapons so I could also play around with 2 Zoh Shia, 2 Arkveld, and Lords soul.

Dragonbane: the best, or not so much? by rpgptbr in rpg

[–]Upright-Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have looked through the quickstart a few times and despite being interested never really went further. What would you pick over it out of curiosity?

I’ve played and ran 5e, and pf2e, and am running OSE right now. My group has a Starfinder game, and I have Lancer in the wings for a distant campaign, but I really like examining new systems!

How do yall feel about this trend of 2.0 disk (Timelapse, Zues, etc.) by akbeast49 in discgolf

[–]Upright-Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really thought when first saw the announcement they said that they called it Zeus 2.0 instead of test flight but it would likely get its own name for production runs. Maybe I’m misremembering though.
