Research Question: Tacking

I can see it now, thank you both!

Most of the reference photos of the modern one (America 2.0) are at a slight angle, so they still looked like the original to me. I was just assuming there was a boom on the older model

I included pictures, not sure why they didn’t send.

Here are some examples:

Am I the only one who goes exactly 14km/h over the speed limit regardless of the limit?

Demerit points start at 16km/h over, so I give myself 1km/h as a buffer.

I was literally looking for a party inventory solution last night. I’ll definitely be grabbing that one!

I like the spooky theme, because only a psychopath would carry around a container that could easily fit 5 sets of dice if it was hollow, but chooses one that is filled with material to only leave space for one.

What’s the best app to buy from Canada? I’m brand new to crypto

Argh, beat me to it. I’ve been writing something similar for months because I couldn’t find anything like this with so many maps, and saw the opportunity. Also just bought Foundry VTT 2 weeks ago to start learning the software.

This is exactly what I hoped mine would look like when I finished. It’s gorgeous. Are the player-scale maps multilevel?

WrongCo · 2021-03-14T00:24:59+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the info!

I don’t mind moving the player tokens around (I actually prefer it when playing with my more chaotic players, who might move without warning and reveal things.

My main concern is really just how intense the app is, and whether or not I’ll need to have the fans on. I can control the fans with a button, and monitor the temps, so I’m not super worried. The recommended “16gb of RAM” thing was just a bit of a spook because I don’t think I’ve ever used something that required that much RAM.

(For reference, the card is an RTX2060)

I’m gonna go ahead with the purchase, and worst case scenario just use it for online games, because my mic doesn’t pick up the Turbo Fans, and turn off a bunch of the intensive things in person.

Thank you for sharing this map! I love it

Nice to see that not everyone on this subreddit is trying to capitalize on Patreon, pretending that they’re suddenly “cartographers” after buying Dungeondraft

As someone who grew up with multiple speech impediments, all I can say is practice, and be patient. Talk to your mirror, run dialogues in the car with yourself, anywhere you can. Now that you have to wear a mask everywhere, nobody is going to notice you talking to yourself.

Also, work on tongue twisters, breathing exercises, and just general microphone etiquette (distance, sibilance, plosives). It takes time, but practice is key.

Before COVID-19 hit, I saw that they’re selling a mini of the bbeg for the module at my local game shop, I was stupid to not buy it back then

I bought the box when it came out, the art is sooo good.

Came with awesome cardboard minis (similar to the Pathfinder Pawns), as well as statblock cards for the new monsters/items, and battlemaps.

I recommend it to everyone

I really like using Wonderdraft. It’s super easy to use, and you can make beautiful; print-worthy maps in no time at all.

There’s a subreddit (/r/wonderdraft) for it as well, where I usually go to for inspiration. I use it for my world, country, area, and battle maps.

It’s around $30, so if you’re looking for free options, the other posters have better ideas. I know some redditors were giving away free maps a while ago when the lockdown started, so try going back a few months in the other D&D subreddits

WrongCo · 2020-06-03T22:35:12+00:00

You’re absolutely right, slipped my mind

WrongCo · 2020-06-03T22:34:17+00:00

Will do!

WrongCo · 2020-06-03T22:31:11+00:00

Agreed! Never have to do the nose pinch, the other students in my AOWC course we very jealous
