They were one-off custom spells? Or just custom spells you created for D&D?

Full blown spells created by yours truly (the math on the penance stare spell is weird)

Yeah, this here is specifically about coming up with them (typically more as a player) on the fly, quickly from turn to turn. True spontaneous casting.

Yeah I definitely gotta pick up Vol. 2

sounds like something i would do, but my buddy...not so much

@@geeksgambitgaming aNother thing I did was to have a "Call of Duty" style endless wave system, (it wasn't endless) but the idea was let the players were in an area like a town, with hordes of enemies approaching, if they succeeded I gave them a reward when we return to our normal session, they all started at a preset level, and experience they got for killing enemies was used directly to purchase either weapons or buffs or open up new areas.

This is actually a pretty neat idea I should consider for something else I have in mind.

@@lenni-hazels I’ve been working on a hack for it

It's a lot of fun. I'm just having trouble scheduling some folk to play. I may have to run it online.

Yeah the artist quite talented got into it last year and I was like "hey, I have an idea..." I gotta buy more books for her to do it to, because it looks awesome

Thanks for the fun times! My players and I thorough enjoyed this and looking forward to the next volume(s).

@@geeksgambitgaming ah great! it goes to print this month!

You mean...the most overdone setting in RPGs?

@geeksgambitgaming not in HBO long story format... I want to see live adaptation

@@brandonsparks5786 I mean that’s fair but nothing to do with what I asked here. Pretty sure it’s been optioned more than once so maybe one day

@geeksgambitgaming lol yeah I got that when I hit play for the last 8 seconds when you said gaming platform 🤣 I jumped the gun on the response As far as games go, I have been waiting more than 20 years for Legends of the Dragoon 2, and there's no light at the end of that tunnel.

*shrug* not sure.... it's there at the top and a few times throughout, mentions specifically TTRPG. The Legends of Dragoon 2 VG I am pretty sure will come out long after I'm buried. For an RPG setting, it is interesting that I don't hear more people talk about it, but there are a number of systems that would handle it pretty well.

That actually sounds like a really cool character remind me of my second Ed street Sam elf club hopping all the time super stylish allergic to pretty much everything

Awww. Thanks! We miss all you guys too. We're still around, hanging out at some of the newer places that have popped up, Shufflers Den, Rozay Poke, Crooked T Gaming Tavern. We've been considering have a get together before too long, try and bring folk back together.

@@geeksgambitgaming crooked t is right next to where I work, I stopped by it is a very nice looking place

The running reply so far is....if you think roll20 was a paid, walk don't run from Foundry. Here's my dilemma. I am a tech by nature and by trade. But, I spend a LOT of time working and don't want to make the tech of the game a second job. I'd rather have fun playing and running the game. I tried out things like campfire and world anvil and cancelled them both, because Google Drive already gave me what I needed there. In theory, I could just throw up a crummy whiteboard and dragged layered pogs around for virtual play, I know. I'm wondering though if, since FG and Foundry are the same cost now if FG isn't worth the added effort with more time in development and a wider/deeper library and doesn't /seem/ to have more complex setup issue potential.

mission accomplished!

yeah i could do a setting hack, but not sure how any of the blades games would handle two worlds in one...

@@geeksgambitgaming essentially, your idea is run a "real world" character and a "digital avatar" character? We did a multi-session "flashback" adventure of our younger selves where we used a different playback for our youth selves. Having "flesh" and "digital" playboys is a simple fix...

@@OutlandStation not necessarily. That seems to be the “easy” fix but it doesn’t have to be and preferably wouldn’t be.

@@geeksgambitgaming so you are wanting to use the same stats for both instances of a character?

@@OutlandStation I’d like to see it handled at least. I don’t want two character sheets. I’m reminded of a FATE game that had the character but when in their armored form they had XYZ mods and I forgot about it until now but something like that might work. At the same time two character sheets may work. To be fair nothing I plan on running any time soon. More of a thought exercise. I love seeing how different people handle different things with different systems.

I know one of my friends is already planning to play one starting this week

oh man, i dunno if I didn't think of this one or was blocking it out on purpose.

that's awesome!

Hmmm...I'll have to check that out. I am definitely used to more crunch with d100 pages than what could fit in 36 pages, but maybe that's the genius I didn't know I needed.

Best answers for 200 Alec

@@PokePetie surprised only one person rose up and rattled their pitchfork so far

that is a REALLY good question. The campaign I most want to run is going to take some time. I might just have to run something premade while I tinker with my idea in the background. Hit me up some time and we'll see.

I've been digging in more and more and it definitely seems it does, but the trade off is that it could also be potentially a /little/ more tactical/complex. But the base is still the same, just more options, really and that's what I wanted anyhow.

@@igglyjack6850 some days are certainly better than others but yeah I do enjoy my little nerd horde

@@sordid_rose4847 truthfully never thought it would be this way but here I am living the dream

That was actually the point: whoever thought it could be used as a gatekeeping device--whether for it or against it--not the brightest. I never said it was better. I, for one, was happy to see it go. But, it was better than what came before. Now, why was it better? Before it was all referencing charts--various charts based on class, level, specific monsters, etc. The math was relatively straight forward, but it frustrated folk enough that they went back to using a chart (based on the new math). Interestingly, it was around for a very long time--longer than most realize initially seeing use in 81 or 82, I believe in modules and articles. Some say it was an in-house design tool used in building monsters and kind of got leaked out and caught on.

Never forget when someone brought an original wood box to shop. Unfortunately, not for sale, but so cool to hold one in my hands.

Since when did YT truncate links? Weird. Let's see if I can get that fixed.

Thanks again for that. Apparently, since it'd been so long since my account was verified and I wasn't posting on the regular, had to reverify. All fixed now.

changes every time

Thanks. We have a lot more in store and comments help us keep going.

@@geeksgambitgaming 😊 thanks for responding I come to your store all of the time!!
