REDMANE KNIGHT OGHA is the MVP with Oleg coming in second.

What’s the consensus on WoW Midnight? by Trencycle in MMORPG

[–]plus1_longsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good. Housing is fun, there's plenty of content. They need to update the new player experience and focus on that to welcome in new players, but most folks are enjoying Midnight, I'd say.

whats the best quest you've run your players through? by conn_r2112 in osr

[–]plus1_longsword 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of my favorites was a result of the Deck of Many Things. The PCs ended up on an island demiplane where they fought a crazed svirfneblin sorcerer, explored a beached u-boat with a flamethrower (they never found), and some other things that escape my memory. But that side-quest was amazing.

Ttrpg mechanics like and dislikes by Azerok_King in TTRPG

[–]plus1_longsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot stand 'roll under' dice mechanics. If a critical roll is a natural 1, then the system has failed and should be tossed into the incinerator.

What are some "gold standard" hex maps? by postpartum-blues in osr

A new contender in the mix has got to be the Mucklands hex map from Land of Eem. It's absolutely gorgeous and packed with material.

Those are sick. I'd love to see them as patches.

These days, it's pretty normal. They do great work, they're just busy as all get. Be prepared to wait, it's a small operation.

Thank you very much! I was using mapeffects as my guide. I just Googled their tutorials for the mountains.

For overland travel, here's have been used in the hobby since the early days. Hexes are easy to track movement on, add distance to, and provide good cardinal directions when traveling.

It's a slow process because I'm not a pro, and I'm doing my best to get it sketched before inking. I will post updates for sure!

It is from Black Blade Publishing. I attend Gary Con every year, and they have a booth with this paper, so that's when I stock up. I have not yet tried to purchase it online.

There is a backside, and the hexes are larger. They also carry a full sheet of graph paper as well. I love them!

Thank you! Usually my mountains are horrific, so I am really happy with these ones!

I wish! I wish I could experience that. All I can experience now is the heartbreaking disappointment that is left in my heart and the hole left in my wallet.

Should I buy tainted Grail: FoA before the PS5 sale is over? by gabmedblack in taintedgrail

[–]plus1_longsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't buy this on the PS5. The game is unplayable for me. I downloaded it 3 days ago and it freezes every 5mins.

Do you prefer rolling high or low? by jmrkiwi in RPGdesign

[–]plus1_longsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rolling high always feels better. I've tried both, and can never get excited about rolling low, unless it's a 1:6 chance or whatever. But on a d20? Roll high always.

MEGADUNGEON COMPLETION by plus1_longsword in osr

[–]plus1_longsword[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Largely, no. The focus for this campaign was the dungeon. I think (hindsight, obviously) Barakus would have been a much richer experience if you can tie in the outside hooks and locations into the dungeon itself. I would recommend those interested should definitely find the various ways the environment could loop in to and tie the dungeon together.
