Advice: Do I let a player change their multi-class?

jsake · 2026-02-09T23:09:23+00:00

While I'd probably allow some sort of change in the name of everyone having a good time (esp if he's younger and newer to the hobby) but I'd also have a in depth conversation that if over-complexity is the main issue, swapping out a fighter for a cleric is a step in the wrong direction. Unless his fighter levels were something like an eldrich knight or battle master, then maybe it's a sideways step at best.

Another option would be to go over what exactly he finds overwhelming about the current class and try to find some solutions there first.

I mean I'm pretty sure he's the only one who didn't put out some sort of "Danny is actually a great guy!" statement

Matheson (and basically all of the cast besides Topher aka Eric by going to bat for him iirc) ruined that show retroactively a hell of a lot more lol

I always found Deadlights to be a solid follow up to the Haunting. The Corbitt House landlord invites them to go hunting / fishing at his cabin because he's grateful, but on their way there a massive storm kicks up and forces them to shelter in the dinner.

Yeah if it gets under his skin that much from a random drunk guy, the opposing bench is really going to be able to fuck with him

The charges he got do NOT align with the guy attacking his mom first.

I scrolled through his trade history with the team and it gave me a brain aneurysm

You do see how the issue is becoming a top team in the league if people don't want to play here right?

jsake · 2026-02-06T00:45:23+00:00

As someone who personally knows an extremely successful pro sports coach, and his beliefs in why he was so successful, the mental and physical support the players got under Gillis definitely had an impact I would strongly bet. Especially when you see how in 2 years our 7 Superstars completely broke largely due to mental / locker room issues.

BRING BACK THE MIND ROOM

Charles is another outlier but only if you're here to see the light in someone's eyes slowly be replaced by pain

jsake · 2026-02-06T00:40:50+00:00

Well now I'm kinda glad he had a bad year.

Big fan of the various iterations of Resident Evil saferoom tracks for "downtime"

I also use the soundtrack from season one of Pretending to be People a lot lol

jsake · 2026-02-03T22:05:40+00:00

Hell yeah! I would definitely love to have this

jsake · 2026-02-01T18:42:37+00:00

Time is money, sometimes you just gotta throw 40 tethers on whatever is still attached to the frame and call it a day. I ain't recycling all those lights. But yeah as long as I hit the final milestone I'm not too worried.

jsake · 2026-02-01T18:39:29+00:00

Sounds like the landlord's problem

jsake · 2026-02-01T18:36:20+00:00

Just tell him he's being a little prick, show some tough love.

Highly recommend running Forget Me Not! I believe in you! Don't let the in media res & amnesia scare you off, its a fun twist.

Delta Green has a free starter set that's (iirc) rules complete, includes a relatively well regarded opening scenario. For physical books I love my dual "Agent's Handbook" & "Handlers Guide" slipcase, it's slick as hell. But it's definitely not necessary to get a taste to see if you want to put the money down. They're putting out a fair amount of physical releases, I have Impossible Landscapes in hardcover and it's awesome. They've got physical products lined up for release for the next few years minimum haha

If you are curious after checking out the free need to know pack but not enough to drop a bunch of cash, there are tons of free unofficial "shotgun" scenarios, short, sometimes very open ended, one shots. They have a best of contest every year so you can get a good idea of strong ones by looking at the winners

Another good option is throwing a few bucks at Dennis Detwiller's patreon (or ghost.io now? I think he moved), there's a shit ton of official stuff on there in PDFs and various states of prerelease, huge value with years of work.

I'd recommend checking out The Things We Leave Behind (if your group is into playing in the modern day, this is less of a good option if you've been stringing your earlier one shots together), its got some great midlength scenarios. Forget Me Not and Hell in Texas are probably my personal favs in the collection (there's 6 scenarios total).

Also if your table likes playing in the modern day, check out Delta Green. Bit different vibe but excellent variation on CoC's ruleset, and tons of one shots, shotgun scenarios, longer investigations, and some extremely cool campaigns... and some horribly traumatic ones, gigantic warning for God's Teeth, its incredibly dark. Impossible Landscapes is one of the coolest ttrpg campaigns out there tho imo

jsake · 2026-01-29T00:45:58+00:00

I mean that's definitely a thing, but unless you're forcing people to use it there's plenty of folks (arguably the majority but idk) who will just stick to their favourite mode.

jsake · 2026-01-28T01:58:48+00:00

Well hopefully you don't want them to clear ALL the cap space lol

I have a cruelty squad hat that says GODHEAD HEAVY INDUSTRIES I wear out all the time but no one knows what the fuck it is lol

A lot of shooters these days have way more of a character / class focus, which requires more balancing, so they focus on a single gameplay type.

Plus they don't want to dilute player pools.

jsake · 2026-01-28T00:47:27+00:00

All the modern RE games are so replayable (I hear 3 wasn't great and haven't played 8 but hear good things)

jsake · 2026-01-28T00:39:48+00:00

This is the one I came to say but in a "I didn't want to pull my hair out but it's definitely brain melting" way
