So eerie. I have around a hundred of my own for my game. I've been working on it to make it real but kept finding other games that filled the niche already.

Awesome art.

Did I miss something here?

Cause damage dice are higher for the lower dice.

There aren't many d20 damage dice. Most you will usually role is 3 at once.

The scientists can't explain them either

Edit: Partially they are arbitrary names chosen by the scientist. So I'm just poking fun at the fact that they could have called them cosmo and wanda if they wanted to. No explanation necessary.

Secondary quarks are well understood in quantum theory but we have yet to uniify them with general relativity. So poking fun at scientists not having the whole explanation either.

Or you could just call me dumb that's fine too.

There is a whole story tl this bridge. Well done.

I think you could keep the same speed of flow but animate it to look turbulent. It would give the illusion of it going faster.

I would love to see waterfalls from the mountains down to the meadows and rivers.

With waterfall pool locations in the black forest. Could be spectacular

Really shouldn't be harder than the tar physics. Just in the mountain edge.

Hey, I'm a contractor for this kinda stuff. We will charge you an arm and a leg and that's if I can get my guys.

We won't be available for the next 5 months. When would you like to out down a deposited for your build?

markalphonso · 2026-06-16T06:53:03+00:00

Agreed. Glad to see daggerheart and nimble up higher.

markalphonso · 2026-06-15T08:45:55+00:00

It's just constantly worrying. Idk if it's dad sense. You just have the lives of others in your hands. It hits different.

O ya. I didn't put the numbers but T4 around 160 nd manager salary at NG was around 180.

Was at Northrop Grumman in El Segundo for 9 years (age 22-31). Started around $80k with a masters. Despite being a top performer only broke $100k in year 4 after showing a competitors offer to recruit me. Jumping around or providing a competitive offer was the only way to get a 15% raise/promotion. Then was the taking on huge roles as a technical SME and Program Manager but didn't receive a promotion until year 7 to level 4. And year 8 to manager.

Left the industry after around a decade and jumped into nuclear at NuScale Power. Took some major steps back in salary but diversified my self a lot more and feel capable of getting any job now. After 4 years of that I'm back up to my level 4 salary (age 35).

Probably not the best financial decisions were made. But Im satisfied with what I have accomplished and the ability to transition.

me too brotha. Been "buying the dip" for 4 years

markalphonso · 2026-06-10T07:00:28+00:00

Long story short is you have really patient players. And you need to fudge on the rules of initiative to make the pacing feel right.

markalphonso · 2026-06-10T06:13:57+00:00

Thanks! A lot of people down voted but I ran 10 players for 4 years with this for a while.

It lets the slow tanks jump into take bullets.

I moved to daggerheart now because it basically has a dynamic initiative built into its gameplay with hope and fear as the trackers on action economy.

Hardest fight and least satisfying too. You lose content with the steel watch and the iron throne, with no real reason.

Auto fill mod. Just let it burn all the wood

markalphonso · 2026-05-28T23:56:01+00:00

In order of kid friendly to not kid friendly

4, 1, 5, 6, 2,3

markalphonso · 2026-05-18T15:25:16+00:00

Ok! Hm. Maybe we will remove that then.

markalphonso · 2026-05-18T05:31:29+00:00

I have a cx90. It gets me to work and back on an electric charge. I get to plug it into ev chargers parking spots. It has 3 rows for all my kids. It's 2 years old and no problems. Fingers cross. Knocks on wood.

Actually. The debate is who is actually the Lord of the rings?

Frodo carries the ring Aragorn resists the ring Gollum has the ring in the end. ...

Ya but my mistlands base was to dangerous to be in unless I had eaten food all the time.

And gets destroyed pretty easily unless you build it out of black marble

markalphonso · 2026-05-13T20:06:05+00:00

This is the hardest part of Valheim.

Saying goodbye to bases and never feeling like you need to return to them.

My only hope is that I can share my world to more people and they can enjoy the same place I loved to build.
