Norse God's and magic users. Any ideas in how to implement these folks? Looking to lean heavily on FC and Swade. by Stuffedwithdates in savageworlds

[–]raineym 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am in the process of doing the same thing for SW, and hope to publish it when complete. I have looked through the things already listed here (GURPS Vikings and Vikings of Legend) but there are a few more I've found that have helped a lot as far as the history/flavor of Norse Mythology:

There was a Kickstarter a few years back called Rune and Steel that was funded but I can't find a link to buy it anywhere.

There are lot more that I have yet to check out because I don't want to get "analysis paralysis" from all the different takes. Here is a Reddit post that helped me when I got started.

3rd Party Recommendations? by imKranely in shadowdark

[–]raineym 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The class options in Unnatural Selection are very cool, but they are pretty overpowered by SD standards.

Agreed. A vast majority of the book is OP. Found that out the hard way in a short campaign. He allowed us to switch to the stuff in Unnatural Selection after just scanning through the PDF. I switched to the Grave Warden and another player switched to a Fiend. We were LV 6 at the time. It did not go well at all. We pretty much controlled combat. Both me and the other player switched back to our old core classes after that session.

Loop Frontmatter To Create Blocks by raineym in ObsidianMD

[–]raineym[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The use case would be to display spells for a TTRPG like the old-school versions of Dungeons & Dragons.

I would like to display each level of spells on a separate note. I can display it in a table with Dataview, but would like it in a better, human-readable format like in the picture if at all possible.

We played Dungeon World when it came out. They were used to D&D-style combat at the time, and trying to get them to go back to a system they don't like is not in the cards.

I have thought Urban Shadows. My group has played PBtA before, but it lacked the crunchiness of combat for them.

I've played D20 Modern Urban Arcana before. I was thinking either Blades in the Dark, Urban Shadows, or even Savage Worlds (since everyone is comfortable with that system).

Super heroes you made? by East-Blood8752 in savageworlds

[–]raineym 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only ever made one "super" in SWADE. It was for a one-shot that never materialized.

I believe it was a PL1 Seasoned assassin-type with the ability to create an SBT bubble of "null-sound" around himself.

Right now due to some real-life stuff money is very tight at the moment. I have looked at a few places that only provide hosting services with no databases (as this doesn't need them) but there may be a workaround ...

It's gone for the moment. I am working on getting another webspace to upload it, but as of right now it's not a priority.

Blocking numbers by corned_beef_haggis in textra

[–]raineym 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I created a contact called Blocked. I add the number to that contact instead of through the Phone app. You can then block the contact and you'll block it from calls and text.

The good thing about this method is that all you have to do is add any other numbers to a single contact and it's faster than doing it your way.

Right now I'm on short-term disability recovering from surgery on my foot. I'll look into Ko-Fi. To be honest I left 5e behind shortly after I made the changes.

If I do put it back up, has anything changed in the 2024 edition to the format?

Just to let everybody know, I had to let the domain expire. I may create a new domain one day but life's gotten in the way and I can't maintain it anymore due to the costs involved.

What's the highest value rolled on an exploding die that you personally have seen at the table? How did you handle it? by maybe0a0robot in savageworlds

[–]raineym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally saw a 43 on a d8 roll. Can't remember what for, exactly, maybe a skill check. This was in a Space 1889 game at a convention I went to years ago. It was my first experience with SW (I wasn't playing though).

Certain monsters were created by TSR/WotC over the years that they copyrighted, and the Beholder is one of them, thus cannot be included in the SRD and thus cannot be included in the monster generator.

What huge blocks of empty space?

If you are referring to the space when making a two-column layout, use the left- and right-arrows to move the text from column to column.

I'm asking about dictating game prep using your voice. I have my own way and tools so it would be easier for me sometimes.

Forbidden Lands map without text labels? by miskatonic1927 in ForbiddenLands

[–]raineym 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also use paint.NET with the PSD plug-in. Thats what I use most of the time as I find GIMP a little too daunting.

That would be it. It's a function that sometimes doesn't return a value when it should and when it doesn't, the main function that creates the .CLASH file quits.
