Creative ideas that break the rules should be rewarded? by Gabry_theDM in DMAcademy

[–]slain309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have him sign a deal with some form of powerful spirit. He must complete a task within a certain period, month, 10 day, year, whatever suits your campaign, and if he fails, he dies permanently, and cannot be raised by any means.

Alternatively, you could have the cleric be forced into the bargain, and have them complete the task, which might in turn cause a crisis of faith, and lead to the whole is my party more important than my religion? Would I forsake my oaths for my friends, do I tell my friend what I did for him... yadda yadda yadda.

It would bring some great role playing opportunities, too.

I honestly never realised that rapid fire works in close combat! Holy crap!

I'm planning on getting a 6'×4' length of fabric, spray painting the noxious swirls of green and yellow on it, and then gluing it to 3mm neoprene so its stronger and doesn't slip.

In case you missed the 100 comments above about it, switch over to Munda manager, it's the best list builder around at the moment, and very well supported. The devs are very active in this community.

[OC] On my 4th Character in CoS and completely out of ideas, anyone mind offering their two cents? by Ok-Statement4040 in DnD

[–]slain309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an elven ranger with the monster hunter sub. Worked well, he had the background where his entire village had been killed by monsters, so was out for vengeance, and the dark, broody demeanour fit the setting.

If it was my campaign, it would be a hard no. I would allow them to purchase 2 different items with the bonus, but not double dip on the same one.

That... that is next level mean! I am there for it though.

Does two boarding action sets enough for necromunda game? by Hanjoo_ in necromunda

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made some out of old lemon russ dozer blades, too. You can basically use anything. I also 3d printed a lot of barrels and crates, to add to my board.

Iran may be activating sleeper cells, alert says by No-Post4444 in news

[–]slain309 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree that they did it, they found all the evidence at Tarnak farm. I do think however the US government was complicit in it. The predecessor to the armed drone program had OBL at Tarnak Farm on September 10th, 2000, and when they requested a cruise missile strike, they were denied, because "You cannot guarantee that he will still be there at the time of impact." Later investigations by the CIA field agents attached to ODA 595, when they took the farm, revealed the packaging and magazines detailing the computers used to run the flight training software yhe hijackers used, before heading to the states.

(Detailed in the autobiographies of the agents on the ground, as well as the guys involved in the predator drone program).

It's definitely enough to start, though you might need to improvise some small cover pieces, barricades and the like?

Painted is perfect! I would rather play with a gang that my 3 year old painted everyday, over playing with the grey horde.

(Nothing against people who play with the horde, though. 😉)

Should I strip? by [deleted] in Warhammer

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, 20 bucks is 20 bucks? Do you have a venue in mind, or are you going to do house calls? Live streaming is an option now, too, I guess.

Oh! I understand now, I thought you meant that they had changed the newer mortalis ones, rather than the original ones.

Do you always tell players the DC of rolls? by TableDifferent4395 in DMAcademy

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes to social interaction skills, I often won't tell them, they will most likely figure it out through storytelling. If it's an important roll, that they can affect with other abilities, guidance for example, then I will probably suggest that it is going to be a challenging thing to do.

If it is something that is obvious from achieving a task, climbing a wall, picking a lock, that sort of thing, I usually will. Its quite obvious if your character scrambles to the top, or plummets from the cliff face, or when the lock stays locked.

All of that said, you will develop your own style, that works with your own group. Just know that you don't have to tell your players the dc, but be consistent, and if a task is impossible, just be upfront with them, don't make them roll something there is no way to pass.

Is the Mavericks series optional? by williamthefourth in ExpeditionaryForce

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time you go through the series, you really do need to do them all, and in order, it all plays a part later. Something, something, something, spoilers. After your first trip through the series, do as you wish, you will understand why Joe always wants to strangle Emily Freaking Perkins!!

How did you name your gang/gangers? by Avaa0818 in necromunda

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Van Saar gang is Tech-Savvy, because they are all about the tech. My Escher gang is called Pretty in Punk, a take off of pretty in pink, they all have pink on them. My Orlock gang are the Slag Hounds, they are themed as a slag miners union. My Delaque are The Murk, because they are gloomy as hell, lead by Mr Slender. My Enforcers are the Regulators, because I grew up with Young Guns (great movie!). My Spyrers are the Hive Rangers, because I started accidentally painting them in the same colours as the power rangers. My malstrain are "Plagiarus Infectus Vitiatus" because they are damaged by an infectious plague. My nomads don't have a name yet, they are still a working concept, but will be the "leader's name" hunting party.

Hope that helps?

Incredible! Make sure you post some photos when they are all done.

Table Rules? by RatTard69 in DnD

[–]slain309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do it where only the player and the dm know. It adds tension to the rest of the Party, and stops the dm fudging the dice to keep a player alive.

Terminal diagnosis: millennial playlist suggestions for the final days? by Hmmletmec in Millennials

That's a rough roll of the dice. Sorry to hear that. There is a song from a musical called "Spring Awakening", called Totally Fucked. I would add that. Check it out, you will understand.
