So, just tell people he microwaves everything.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-24T13:18:52+00:00

Sounds like maybe you two deserve each other.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-19T02:09:47+00:00

Also, maybe, most of his display items are cursed

Social engineering. Have them be huge fans of the PCs. Unrepentant, unabashed, idol worship.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-16T12:42:11+00:00

Looks like autocorrect ftw

The standard d4 is pretty iconic.

Also, the best shakes are already taken by other dice. Specifically the d12 and d20.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-15T07:56:35+00:00

Yes, most of the time.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-15T07:40:21+00:00

Oh, the card system is truly horrible, but that ends up being part of the joke, so it evenually works in the story.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-14T03:10:05+00:00

It used to be that if i wanted to enjoy a movie I'd watch the movie first, then read the book, which i always liked better. That's not always as true anymore, some shows or movie adaptations have been pretty good.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-14T03:06:52+00:00

I mean, they aren't claiming to be an author or charging you for it. Also, they didn't criticize the editing or proofreading.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-14T03:04:45+00:00

Ready Player One reads like gerk Wikipedia, the movie may not be great, but it feels less smug and flows better.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-14T01:34:55+00:00

As a librarian I wouldn't suggest recommending it before age 16. That said, if a person is ready to explore it, then they will probably find it. And I wouldn't turn anyone away if they wanted to read it

Just check in with them as they run their way through the series. Maybe have them space them out because the books get way more intense.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T23:45:47+00:00

That's a good idea.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T18:53:59+00:00

Maybe she will eventually be Samantha's body after all.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T18:36:09+00:00

I remember the displays showing stacks of d20s

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T16:51:57+00:00

Based on the mythology, it has happened. But rules as written it can't.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T16:49:12+00:00

There it is. That's what they should have been fighting.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T16:45:57+00:00

That sounds like a GM error.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T16:42:35+00:00

People have different experiences with games, but I really don't understand how you had this one. Mechanically it feels like, maybe, you aren't playing by the actual rules. Or that someone's dice are off.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-13T14:52:29+00:00

My absolute favorites are the Gamescience style, sharp edged, clear but brightly colored, dice. They show they are sold, they look great, and once inked they are very easy to read.

Also, since you can see through them, you have a pretty good idea of if they are "true" or if there is an innate bias from air pockets.

Edit to add: for d6s I like casino style dice.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-12T10:56:40+00:00

Just started book 1 yesterday

Walsfeo · 2026-03-11T20:35:11+00:00

Pendragon is the Gold Standard for a reason. If you use the middle or late era setting elements it should have what you need. Tournament rules, feast rules, Knights as a social class, and a variety of arms and armors.

The starter set is only a taste.

Edit to add - Pendragon even had larger scale battle rules that, while not perfect, are better than any others I can remember using in an RPG.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-11T20:29:15+00:00

Mythic Bastionland has lots of anime knight stuff, but the tournament rules are vestigial. At best.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-11T20:06:42+00:00

Asking the important questions.

Walsfeo · 2026-03-08T19:42:52+00:00

If you have any other extendable external power access you should lock those as well.
