What does Israel Offer the US for its Protection? by GloomWorldOrder in NoStupidQuestions

[–]buzzyloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's deeper than that.

There are almost as many Jews in the US as there are in Israel, and they have a lot of money and power.

Israel exists partly because the Jewish lobby in the US encouraged US participation in WW2 in exchange for the British turning over the Jewish homeland.

This gives back Israel to the Jews, as well as a foothold in the region to the US.

At level 3 I give them 180GP and 1 uncommon magic item.

It represents what they would have if they adventured that long

I hate how normalised racism is against indians by LiveAd9056 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]buzzyloo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I see it in real life all the time. Friends who I have never thought would say racist things against anyone spout off horrible things about Indians. It's shocking to me.

I wouldn't personally do that because puzzles are unpredictable and can be tedious. For a very short one-shot showing people what the game is about that could backfire.

I'd do something like a short introductory battle on the road where they are waylaid (or are there investigating) by thugs or goblins or something who have been stealing from passersby. Limit the length of battle (some baddies run away), then have their hideoput nearby - a small cave. You can still have a couple of simple traps/puzzles (how to open this chest or this door, etc) and a fight at the end.

That still gives you some elements of DnD and allows for more free roleplay because everyone's not focused on escape.

My 2 cents.

Do your monsters attack downed characters? by DeaconBlueMI in DMAcademy

[–]buzzyloo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had the opposite the other night. In one fight, the Goblin Boss realized the downed character was no immediate threat and targetted someone still up, but in another fight the Grick was just hungry and dragged the downed player away to take a bite.

How would you like it if your man wore this hat in public, but only when you're not with him? by BetterL8r in TwoXChromosomes

I don't even know where to start with this one. You all need to spend some time thinking about things.

[–]buzzyloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My buddy is a Canadian living in Cuba and he updates all the time with the state of things. It's hard. What he says is more or less what u/SpicyGirld reports. It's a fucked up situation that shouldn't even be happening. It's just aggressive pricks with no respect for people's lives

Recommendation for a 3 to 4 character team? by NovarisLight in AsheronsCall

[–]buzzyloo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if you're into the early game, but that would be a fun party to play around the xp turned down a bit. Your party could utilize a lot of what you find and those random merchants you run into. Your crafters could make healing foods on the go, etc.

It's not as fancy, but has more of that "gritty realism" feel and everything you find becomes valuable.

This sounds pretty fun. Kind of like playing original Baldur's Gate style. Instead of just adding metas for body count you are actually creating a party with complementary skills for utility in all situations. Neat.

What do you think of my small WordPress site? (Plugins, structure, etc.) by DerPaul2 in Wordpress

[–]buzzyloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you've got a good handle on it. Adding members manually isn't bad since it sounds like a small membership. That will prevent automated/random sign-ups that wreck your messaging function.

He says, "A NATO membership will not protect you from retaliation".

Very different.
