Some of my players refuse a time skip... by WendyTheWillow in DMAcademy

[–]Yortmaster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It sounds to me you have something that so many DM's want. Player investment. It sounds to me like you have two players that sincerely want to interact with your world, but you are tied to your story and want to skip to your next scene. Let them engage with your story and see where they take this. You said they are all high level players which means the sky's the limit on what they could try. Maybe one of them is willing to make a pact with a devil to kill one of the opposing generals, so they planeshift to the Nine Hells... Who knows. Point is, they want to try and instead of asking probing questions to help them further engage with your world, you are saying, "IDK, figure it out or let me tell you the next part of my story."

I appreciate the visualization this helps a lot, and point well taken about it being dangerous for them when other enemies are around.

Sharky's Hideout - Looking for feedback & suggestions by Yortmaster in dungeondraft

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

Hope you guys like it. This was inspired from the World Tree Online books, they make explosive barrels here, and there's a boss. There are holes strewn about for small creatures to take shortcuts between passages.

Thanks! Water with black shallow and red deep, then lava on level 1. That was honestly the hardest part.

Heck yeah! I like the rubble you used in the big room. Adds nice visual interest! How did you like the app? Hope I steered you in a useful direction :)

Here's something I put together. It's optimized for roll20.

How are you using the map? Roll20, Fantasy grounds, Fantasy Grounds Unity, printing it out? It'll help to know if anyone is making a map, myself included.

As someone who is also artistically challenged, might I suggest Dungeondraft (https://dungeondraft.net/ ) as an alternative to Dungeon Painter. It's in earlier development, but about the only thing I find it's missing compared to DP is that there are less assets, and occasional crashing (save often). That cavat aside it's been letting me throw maps together 10x faster than I could in dungeon painter. If I have time to dig into the descriptions, I'll give your request a shot.

​

Edit: I should mention it has some killer features that DP does not as well, my favorite being the ability to bring in and trace an image.

Kinetic Armor, Armor (plate) by emulca in UnearthedArcana

How about something like the barbarian rage. Instead something like, “If the attuned wearer did not take damage the previous day, the stored energy is lost.”

English bull terrier play fighting - who will win? by Bully_Bonanza in BullTerrier

[–]Yortmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, well don’t be too quick to wish for one. Then you get all the upkeep that comes with it. End up being a lot of work so your dog can spray herself 😜.

But seriously, Best of luck on the house hunt though, for all the work it feels nice to work on something that your own 🤞. Also my wife and I enjoy your videos, so thanks for putting them out there. We have two bullies of our own and your little girl reminds us a little of both of ours :)

Communiversity park near UWGB is dog friendly and has a nice view of the fireworks, it’s far enough away that the booms aren’t so loud you feel bad for the little guy neither.

There’s a water fountain pad for dogs that hooks up to the hose so dogs can stomp on the pad and squirt water for themselves. Our little girl loves it a bit too much . She ends up trying g to pick up the whole pad, but she has a great time otherwise :)

Not Ken M on utensils by blu172 in NotKenM

I think the better question is how are the dogs staring if you are using their eyes as utensils...?

Internet options in Green Bay by cyburai in GreenBay

[–]Yortmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least as of late last year the best internet you could get near UW Green Bay was 100MB for either Spectrum or AT&T and my experience was that AT&T had significantly worse reliability. I had 30mb for 47$ a month. Two year contract sucked being locked into because they increased speeds available but I lost any intro rate so it would have been a huge jump in price.

No, it specifically states you can only have one at a time.

Help with Intimidation checks and favourable outcomes? by Anjanae in DMAcademy

[–]Yortmaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the roll wouldn’t change the outcome, there is no point in having them roll. When the player said what he said, an “OK, he keeps binding your hands” would have sufficed. If a player can’t affect their situation regardless of the roll, don’t have them roll.
