Thanks.

Thanks, I appreciate it. It’s a little like sharing my GM notes, so I was a little worried, but so far people like these weirdos.

Yes. page 23 has an example, an actual sheet is here. It’s bundled with the documents from the Itch page, but maybe I should also throw it on the end of the book?

If you order a package that passes through the hands of the USPS it gets literally thrown. If you live in an urban area the logistics are not even set up that could sort packages without throwing them. On the upside throwing microwaves is good exercise.

Indeed there are free web-based rollers, a discord-bot, a free app, and even a free 1st party Fantasy Flight app. Still get a lot of eyerolling at the dice.

I agree with that sentiment. Been a little surprised by how many folks responded to say that they like a lot of lore because they feel like they don’t have to prep that way.

I feel like that game was really sold as a “shelf game” with being big and pretty and cool. I hope there is a good index at least.

“Rules are IMO less important than setting” that’s the hottest take I’ve gotten so far. I agree in spirit. I love it when the rules get out of the way of narrative and immersion. That’s probably why I love Electric Bastionland so much. It’s got a real solid simple foundation that I can use for any story about exploring a dangerous space.

That blog is a fascinating pitch. Thanks for the rec.

5e rulebook has a very weird balance of lore/rules. There is so much lore, like pages for each race, but they are fairly vague. I have a hard time imagining anyone using the loosely Tolkien races strictly as presented in the rulebook. So I ask why so many pages dedicated to that?
