If nothing else, it's less math on the players, as you know pretty immediately if you roll at or over your THAC0, unless you're facing a badass monster, you almost certainly hit.

The more I play D&D the more I think that THAC0 was honestly easier.

Pluto on Netflix is highly worth watching, definitely the best anime they've ever picked up.

@mrthefalcon.bsky.social How do you feel about Trilemma Adventures? How good are they seem at being dropped into a long term campaign in a pinch or do they require some setup?

@t5un4m1.bsky.social in regards to the magical item stuff, unfortunately they are pricy but the old TSR Encyclopedia Magica are worth it if you can pick them up.
I also think one of the official Mork Borg zines, Fecundity maybe, has a good section.

No worries and I'm in a similar boat, I have the games I'll prefer but I'll mostly run anything so long as the group is good.

Are you more of a manga guy or anime guy? Or just interested in One Piece in general?

What medium(s) do you use for your art?
It all looks cool, in particular I liked the Gregori piece.

Yeah the conversion from 5e to DCC was ... rough for a couple of my group, a couple took it really well though, but of the 2 that didn't like it, 1 outright refuses to play DCC again, and the other seemingly only wants to play 5e which takes them out of ever playing the games I run .

I really am beginning to have the theory that I don't really like anime in general, I just like the stuff that Tatsunoko was involved with in some way, or the OVA culture that used to exist. There are likely some exceptions to this, but the more time goes on, the more that seems to ring true.

Honestly not too often unless it's an emergency, we play in person and they all seem to still look forward to playing, so they make it a point to show if possible or give notice. The online game I'm in though misses every other session due to people canceling last second.

For sure, but I just wish more people realized it was happening, and that the creators/owners of the content cared more. Like I know there are people who would more or less volunteer to convert formats if the owners gave them access to the raw files, they just won't.

It just seems like such a disconnect. Also the shackles of the Assassin's Creed metaplot stuff really seem to hold this game back. I'd love a big budget viking game, or any historical setting really, but there doesn't seem to be much hunger from developers to make it.

Minor thing, but the fact that I'm a viking and can't kill innocent villagers seems pretty silly, I know we're trying to show the protagonist as a good guy, but if we wanted that, maybe don't make a game about a culture best known for raiding and pillaging?

I don't know what I expected from an Assassin's Creed game but I thought that Valhalla would be more ... idk, viking-y

Really appreciate the style of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Mars series extraterrestrial fauna: it's like the stuff on earth, but with way more limbs.

@reginahart.bsky.social How did the switch from Electric Bastionland to DCC go? I've never ran EB, have read it, but have ran DCC a ton, and they seem significantly different in terms of game feel.
