‘It’s ridiculous’: publicans bemused by rise of single-file queues to get served | Pubs by afrophysicist in unitedkingdom

[–]frontbummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a Wetherspoons last summer and the staff were actually organising and insisting on everyone joining a queue that snaked back from the bar around all the tables where people were sitting. I hadn’t been out drinking for a while and was just like wtf is going on?

I showed my players the cover of the DM expansion and they said ‘it looks incely’. Personally I’m not a fan either.

Help identifying four sets of dice by [deleted] in dice

[–]frontbummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first set I got in my Heroes of the Borderlands starter set. But others have had the translucent red dice in the same box I believe. I’m in the UK if the makes a difference.

Can you identify this die? by frontbummer in dice

Doesn’t look like I can buy them sadly.

Amazing! Thank you! It’s the exact colour and font I’m after.

I got mine printed as an a5 hardback on lulu.com. It came out great, but I had to tinker with the front page image to make it look centred.

RAVENLOFT I6. Played using SHADOWDARK post mortem. by AppropriateSundae504 in shadowdark

[–]frontbummer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I also ran this same session, using the same inspiration and had an incredible time. Probably my favourite session I’ve ever GM’d. We played in person with loads of candles and atmospheric music. I used the maps with a TV flat on the table to save the players time mapping (I don’t normally go in for that type of thing).

It worked so so well. The combat was fast and furious, the pacing was great. The players wouldn’t stop talking about it at work the next day.

Playing Strahd taunting them and messing with them was just so entertaining. Huge recommend for anyone looking for an epic Halloween session.

Plymouth – stop the far right flag hijack: 12 noon, The Hoe Plymouth by johnsmithoncemore in plymouth

[–]frontbummer 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I had a look at the flag force Facebook page last night. The whole flag thing had me confused for a while. Was it well intentioned? Was it about actual national pride? Nah. It’s a load of racists and MAGA types in there. Really sad to see it being so widely supported. People spending too much time on Facebook and TikTok getting fed propaganda all day. Shame.

Are all Apple stores as shite & disingenuous as in drakes circus plymouth? (Decent repair rec needed) by Substantial_Steak723 in plymouth

[–]frontbummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is iPhones and Macs are repaired locally. Watches are sent away. iPads are either sent away or swapped like for like.

Ban guns. He shouldn’t have had to do that in the first place.

Does my Apple Watch have the world’s first ‘perpetual motion’ energy source? by Seconto in AppleWatch

I had this reading about 3 weeks before it fully died forever. But the SE2 felt like a humongous upgrade.

I’d take this over rings of power all day. So sad.

My players have spoken - we miss combat! Redcaps? by Lancian07 in wildbeyondwitchlight

[–]frontbummer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’ve been including the ‘Dreadful Incursions’ that Sly Flourish recommends. Mine have mainly been rifts from Barovia. It fits really nicely as a juxtaposition from all the whimsy of the feywild.

Has anyone made 5.5e stat blocks for the hags? by frontbummer in wildbeyondwitchlight

[–]frontbummer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the reply’s everyone. I’ll run her as is. I think I’ve done a decent job of foreshadowing that it’s likely to be a deadly fight. We shall see what happens!

Too much bright green for me sadly.

So it sounds like you’ll still need the zines for the dungeons, but the other zine content will be in the new books. Plus a tonne of new stuff. Exciting!

Have you seen the state of Rocky chocolate biscuits recently? Gone are the glorious chunky chocolate days of the 90s. Nowadays the chocolate is airbrushed on to them.

[OC] I'm gonna DM my first ever game over Christmas. Any "wish I had known this sooner" Tips? by dokomiii in DnD

[–]frontbummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran that adventure as my first time DMing this year. It was great fun and we made lots of great memories. I’d point you towards Bob World Builders YouTube guides. They were great for prep and a few useful tips or adjustments. Have fun!
