We played our third game Tuesday night. We're using the mashup from the wiki with Questers of the Middle Realms. Using consequences RAW from SotC doesn't...
I've played the game a couple times now and listened to hours and hours of Actual Play, and I've noticed a few trends in the way some people tend to play the...
Excellent post, and 100% on the nose! I can only repeat that fact that I too have listen to a 1/2 dozen podcasts with actual play and found myself on the verge...
This is great advice! In my regular group there are a few guys I've had to strongarm and cajole into trying SotC/FATE against their natural inclinations. They...
Well put. There's really only one thing in there I'd disagree with or reword: From: "merc_hg_80" <merc_hg_80@...> ... Personally, I love how the conflict...
These bullet points need a place on the wiki, no? :) (They're fantastic.) Fred ... -- Fred Hicks Evil Hat Productions - www.evilhat.com Indie Press Revolution...
... Thanks, Mike! Much appreciated. ... Well... yeah; I don't want to come down too hard on these guys. I don't want to discourage anyone from podcasting...
... Thanks, Doug! Hope it helps some people out. ... It does seem fairly common. I think players end up with a distorted impression of "What's the absolute...
Hi, thanks for your post. I simply love the advice you're giving. That's the spirit! (pun intended) -- ======================================= Katrin Schemmann...
... Yeah, that's fair enough. I kinda consider that sort of thing an 'advanced' player technique. There's also the danger that a player will really get...
Whatever podcast it was you listened to, do go and tell them your feedback. Trust me on this, we always want to get feedback. You won't discourage anyone. ... ...
Daniel/Roger; I hope I did not come across as being too critical of the recorded session pod casts out there - perhaps I was being a bit dramatic (in a pulp...

First of all, thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you like The Digital Front and that you support podcasts in general. I didn't think you were critical (well,...
... Four words answers this. Razor sharp throwing cards. ==================== I am Palmer, Squishy of Squishies. Look upon my bulk, ye mighty, and giggle...
See, to me this wouldn't work, because Gambling is all about reading people and taking chances - this would be something covered under the stunt that lets you...
Absolutely. It is nice that most characters could add a "combat skill" by instead adding a stunt that allows them to use another skill for combat in...
... feedback. Excellent point, Daniel. Seems like sometimes the only time people offer feedback on anything is when they're unhappy! If you enjoy the fruits...
I've written an RPG which I'm hoping makes gaming very easy, balanced and fun. I'm looking for feedback on it, and encourage folks to drop me a line. The...
Great advice and thread. I'll just add that a bookish Academic type with the "It's Academic" Stunt is a great asset in a fight, particularly when the...
Exactly. With the right application of stunts to one of your top three skills, and even with some of the core trappings of skills, nearly every SOTC PC should...
I'd love to give it a read, but I have no program that will open "wps" files. Can you please repost in a more universal format, like PDF? Thanks! --P...
*.wps files are in MS Works format and are not especially compatible with other, common programs. After skimming the document, it seems to bear a very strong...
... Ah, I see. I had approved this because I thought it might be Fate or Evil Hat relevant. If it isn't, I'm gonna have to ask that this thread be shut down...
I just posted an actual play report over on RPG.net for my first session of an ongoing SotC game. Here's the link, for anyone who wants to read it: ...
