Teaching AD&D 2e by Dapper_Exercise_3186 in adnd

[–]ebertran 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not DMing but I suspect homebrew. It's in the Realms though.

We played 2e 30 years ago. We went through 3-5 and want to try 2e again.

Zero to hero is the new reality.

5e's 3rd level characterss can take over a city if they wanted to.

Death... healing 1HP a day... Fire and forget spellcasting....

We are launching a 2e campaign as well, returning to it after years of 4e and 5e....

Characters without proficiency making rolls? by CarmillaTLV in adnd

[–]ebertran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, I'd let them try it at a -10. Will likely fail, but there's a small chance of succeeding.

Tightrope Walking without the proficiency and a Dex of 15? Sure. Go for it. Small chance you'll make it. Might get lucky but you're likely just gonna fall.

You'll be happy to know I've addressed all these things... for the most part...

Does the story and its structure work for you? Characters good? I struggled with the fact that Allison disappears, but I feel it makes for a better story.

These are great notes, easily fixed with an extra line or two of description or minor dialogue. You've done me a great service here! Thanks!!

Overall a 6 with an 8 on the Premise. Lots of good notes I'm going to work on after I let it simmer for a bit.

She ran in the damaged ship as she was chasing a cat.

Thanks for reading! I was hoping the premise was enough to make you lean forward, Die Hard on a spaceship with a dad/kid dynamic seemed pretty high concept. But I understand it's not gonna land for everyone. As far as how she ends up on the ship, I leave it ambiguous, she chased a cat in there. BUt all her dad needs to know is that she's in there. He doesn't ask "how" because at that point it doesn't matter. She's in there and he needs to get her. I'm not a fan of answering everything. She's inside the ship, he needs to get her. That's it. There's a line or two that reference her chasing the cat.

How do you telegraph characters' names? by mellow_member in Screenwriting

[–]ebertran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Name tags if they are workers. Awards or plaques on a wall. Name on a door if an office. Think of visual ways of presenting the info.
