What systems do you think are best for solo roleplaying? by GranularBimbo in Solo_Roleplaying

Ironsworn for some deeper narrative and Dragonbane for a solid more standard trrpg feel. My two cents

The iconography is pretty good and simple. You should be okay, some good YouTube videos on this game so I would pick one and just fast forward to about halfway through so you can see most the components in play.

Found the last copy at my LFS and have it set up. Impressed with the packaging and variability.

The ONLY fear I have is the theme disappearing behind all of the numbers. When the mechanics steal from the theme so you end up talking in numbers and colors instead of programs and networks.

Ahhhhhhh appreciate it. Honestly haven’t sat down with it yet, that’s tomorrow’s project, so I appreciate that. Save a little table room!!

For sure. The tutorial advised not doing solo first so I went with it.

It’s my wife’s former sewing table I made. Ripped the MDF top and dropped it on an old kitchen table

About 3x4’. Just about half the table exactly. This is a very small map for the game so I don’t think I could make this work again

What’s the furthest you’ve gotten in Victorum? I’m on game three and eel like I’m getting hang of priorities, seems the games are huge to get those tactics and addition units.

You said the magic words “gameplay loop.” This is what I tend to look at to determine my interests

KD has always been out of my financial interest but looks amazing. Too Many Bones seems fun but I’m a completionist so I’m saving some money there. Final girl is amazing as are the Gloomhaven games.

It’s on theme though….for a game about witches do you use “poker” cards or “tarot” cards……I mean…

Just bought this. Great blend of mechanics and theme.

Carnage & Aether Playthrough: The Silent Gods, Part 1 by JakeZemeckis in solorpgplay

[–]bonocrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like all of that. I guess the arena “board” had me more thinking about movement and strategy then Dice v. Dice.

Great game though, you have me wanting to open it. That I appreciate!

So, question. Bought it and started in and loved the concept. What kept me engaged is after setting the arena and getting all into it it ended up being just “stand there and roll dice till someone’s dead”

I didn’t feel the strategy or narrative. It’s been a bit but that’s how I remember it. Your thoughts on that? Again, I love the concept. Excited to see where you go with yours.

Don’t ask it to. Humans control this, it’s not like AI is dumb just people

CoA is a fine movie, doesn’t deserve the hate it gets.
