OK I believe at a basic level if you kill the monster you win, if you die you lose maybe not the best analogy. Maybe not keeping score but racking up XP...its...
... Nothing. The miss never existed In Character. Just like an elf missing with an attack then using Elven Accuracy isn't actually taking a second swing in...
Ian, that's my point of view entirely. Anything to make this game more challenging, because currently, it is about as tactically interesting as Checkers and...
... Same here. It's scary on how well some in my local group keep notes. They even keep track of how much hp damage they have done, note when I call them...
I think he meant Grousing, as in running through the underbrush chasing out the "Grouse"(bird)Â and when it escapes the brush the hunters shoot and eat it. ...
Terry, Â I completely agree with your post. To add, the DM should never give away anything either. But the DM telling the players. "You missed by 1. Does...
Game Submission Deadline Extended The deadline for GMs to qualify for a Free Weekend admission to Pacificon (September 4-7, 2009) for submitting a game to run...
... Ian has DMd me online, and he's always been an excellent and fair DM. Ian, I agree with cards being cheese. I love not having them in home campaigns. ...
... Terry and I seem to argue a lot over gaming angles, but I'm very sure we would get along swimmingly in play. I really agree with what he wrote above. If...
... You can grant importance and significance without involving famous elements. The first Veluna mods with the ring series were off-stage from the true focus...
The lack of difficulty is not a result of my characters or group being particularly effective. I have played with three completely different groups of players...
Well, Nick, perhaps you've just been lucky. Or maybe you always play with big groups. Or maybe you just have friends who optimize. In any case, the 1-4...
... A few months ago, having only played the level 1-4 mods, I would have agreed with you. Since then, things have gotten harder. Maybe not very hard, but...
Isn't that the one where you have to have completed a quest card in order to play it? Pity. I only had one character that this would have made sense for....
... While many people find the first 2 waves of mods to be easy, not everyone did, and there were stories of TPKs and whatnot. The very recent mods (such as...
There is a story of what happened, but mostly people are left to explain the lead-in for themselves. The mod won't expire especially soon, so you probably...
If I were running a home campaign, I wouldn't use the cards either. Â When I first started playing D&D, almost all of our DMs were "adversarial" DMs who...
... The one module I played at Origins was very, very annoying. In particular, one fight was nothing but skirmishers that we knew we could take down...
One thing that bothers me about LFR is that it doesn't matter how difficult they make the combats (and most are way too easy, btw), because there are no real...
And I must say that, having had a character die twice in one module in the LG days, I prefer the current mode. I feel like there's TONS more design room for...
... I've heard horror stories about SPEC1-2. Namely that the fights drag out forever and that it's just frustrating. I don't mind difficulty per se (as long...
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/lfrseusa/database I've been giving thought to the 'cannot share MyRe Adventures' clause in the CCGv1.9. However, there's...
That's not a bad idea. although the only limitation would be the size of the regions. The DMs available to run the MYRE mods may be spread pretty far apart....
