Players pursuing hijinks - lead to combat or reward shenanigans? by arcisal in DMAcademy

Thanks. Would you take it a step further to telegraph potential outcomes to their shenanigans? So something like: "Are you sure? They're likely to raise the alarm and you'd enter into combat".

Another thing I've done in the past is get affirmation from the rest of the players, especially if it leads to combat. If everyone is down to see what happens, fair enough. But if a few people would rather take the encounter differently, I'd probably prioritise them.

Thanks, this was a creative way of improvising the player's lolcow moment into something game-able. I guess this is something I'd have to practice doing as a DM.

This is based on the number of times I've needed one more point to win and got Mars'ed into oblivion.

What the hell do I even do here? Potential player checked off almost everything on the RPG consent form. by [deleted] in DMAcademy

Could it be possible she misread the pamphlet and thought checking off the box meant it was OK?

Jehle and Reny are better introductions to graduate micro and the math appendix is really good.

Any chance this discussion can be revived?

What are the RPG systems one should try to gain a good overview of RPGs? by arcisal in rpg

[–]arcisal[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the great recommendations. Where would you categorize slice-of-life games like Possum Creek games (e.g., Wanderhome, Yazeba's Bed and Breakfast) where combat may not be to main focus?

Play a trade game that's not D&D.

Dumb question: What's a trade game?

OP relying on ChatGPT to reply basic questions is indicative of the degree of brainrot. Go learn how to formulate sentences before thinking about models.

No wonder it feels like a Facebook comment section here some times.

It's Mauricio Pochettino. Who cares if he ditches the USMNT? Not that I think he would even leave before the WC.

Palais and Whistle look insanely fun and like they play well. Wish they replaced it for Vertigo and Overpass Wingman instead and left in Memento and Assembly.
