Maledict, slighted, pushes Yoros. Into the circle.

Generally what I have done in the past is I'll roll initiative for everyone at the start of combat. If we get to your round in the imitative order and you don't post in a reasonable amount of time I will take an action for you. I keep this action as low risk and as close to your characters personal...

"Hey, watch it!", says Maledict.

Thanks all for the nice words. My problem has been that I don't really have time to write my own adventures, and have largely been using modules (official and otherwise) which seem to be comparatively chock full of magical gear. Maybe not to the extent that a D&D game would be but still enough t...

Oh, I forgot: they also found two books that could be used to invoke patrons, and one spell book. Each had interesting consequences on the story of the game also. It's interesting that the wizard chose to keep the patron book used to invoke a demon, while he chose to try to get rid of the lance blad...

Except for a few healing potions, my players encountered only three magic items during the course of an approximately 12-15 session long game. Each had significant powers and also some significant drawbacks. The first was clearly chaotic and evil, the broken tip from the lance of a demon. They've tr...

I have played D&D 3E and 4E quite a bit in the last 10 years or more, with miniatures, and I'm burned out on use of miniatures in RPGs. They are very nice and fun for a tactical game. If this is what you and your group are looking for, then miniatures is the way to go. But for a RPG, if find tha...

I guess you can all me 'modern' then because I see no reason anyone but he GM needs to own the book..... No, no, i agree. I think that we live in a society where we consume way too much stuff. We can minize that. A single book per group is enough. I'd rather buy different books and adventures, then...

The group init (e.g. one 6-sided die per side) is simple and quick. However, one problem with having all PCs act and then all monsters, or vice versa, is focus fire. Say you have 6 PCs battling 6 opponents. If the opponents are intelligent, they should try to focus the most important PCs down. Witho...

We played Friday night,the last I saw of my lucky 24 sider was when one of my players stood on top of his chair beating his chest(being in character) and the chair broke under him.He then smashed down onto the table flipping it up and sending my dice,empty pizza(yeah like these neanderthals would l...

One book per gaming group seems fine to me. We had two books at our table during this campaign I've been running for the last year, and it's one too many. We don't like to look up rules unless it's necessary during a game session, it slows down the game too much, so we do it as little as possible. H...

Some wands, though, (...) do something else entirely.

Yeah I have such a wand, it sheds light if I press the button.

I just got my holiday grab bag, big box o' stuff. It had a lot of cool items. Several of the modules I was sent are for 4e rules. I have never played 4e, so I really don't know much about the system. How easy do you think these would be to convert to DCC RPG? And what kind of things would I have to...

Tell the player if they can have sex with the real player, then they can have sex with the player's character. Maybe your problem player will discover something about themself or their other players! :twisted: The problem is that the characters the player wants his PC to have sex with, are the NPCs...

I would agree that it's hard to escape some inherently comic flavor in DCC RPG (which I like, myself). The randomness and corruption in the magic system in particular lends itself to hilarity. When a wizard gets elephant ears or five testicles or whatever, or has a mercurial magic that inevitably c...

Yep, your right! I feel there is so much craziness in the real world I do not want or need it at my table. People that dwell on sex, in game or out, are at such a low level of enlightenment :( Hmmm. Sex is a complex thing in my very humble and non-professionally oriented opinion. Sexual drive has a...

Thanks.

I assume I'll roll for any spells I cast. I had indeed rolled in my previous post, but you had not noticed.

If you play into the STD line, you're playing HIS game, not yours. You're making a game development around the sex, which is what you seem to want to avoid at all costs. What's likely to happen is that he'll play along that game element, for example by questing to rid himself of the disease, or simp...

"Umm.. thank you." Fred watches as the wounds close and knit up partially. OOC: 2d6 yielded 4 +5 for 9 points. That makes 14 points out of 25 total possible. "I guess I gotta think of more of my sins, to heal all the way up next time." "Hush." Second heal check = 15. H...

IC: Umm if by sins, you mean getting stabbed by those bugs, then yeah I'm sorry that happened. Sufferus stands before the thief with his wiry arms outstretched, eyes closed. "This is all the humility you are capable of summoning? You are truly lost, then! Your sins have nothing to do with the ...

"Do you wish to atone for your sins before the Maimed One, and feel pain of the soul as he heals your puny flesh? If so, beg for his forgiveness towards your unworthyness."

Maledict looks at the body on the ground. "You think this is he?", he asks Yoros. While waiting for Fred's plea of atonement, Sufferus looks about the room he has just arrived in. Does the elf look like he might have been killed by the recently vanquished insectoid creatures (not sure what...

It would be great if these were available in sets that were widely available. I have no idea about the logistics of the kind of mass-production needed, but I'm not that fussy about the colour as long as it's consistent and the dice are tough enough. Even if they only come in one colour. Go on, some...

Cool. Post pictures when you have some!

Fred is neutral. Thanks, I had seen your alignment on your PC sheet (post). I initially went to check in case Fred decides to ask for the Maimed One's healing. (Fred will actually be the one, after Sufferus himself, to benefit most from the chaotic cleric's healing.) THis is when I decided to check...
