      @@kamikazedudu2779 We are about 1/2 way through the campaign now and next they are headed to the magic college to talk to the Dean. It's a really good story and we've found there's a great balance between combat, role-playing and puzzles. I think once they hit 5th level, I'm also going to run them through the Wakewyrm's Fury that we got as part of Free RPG Day! :)

    why does some of that artwork look like something ive seen before on MTG cards or somewhere?

    • @TheGallantGoblin
      @TheGallantGoblin  3 роки тому

      There shouldn't be any overlap, as Hit Point Press commissions its own art, but it's possible some of their artists also work on MTG.

    I don't want to sound like a mini snob but personally I really dislike mixing cardpawns with regular miniatures ( terrain is fine to mix imo), they just clash way to much for me and break the immersion which any good DM knows is the ultimate sin. I would rather have a rock or a bit of currency where I am told this is a troll use your imagination . I don't have this problem when everything is a cardboard stand up or when the PC's are models but all the monsters are cutouts just when they are mixed. Does anyone else share this problem?

    • @TheGallantGoblin
      @TheGallantGoblin  3 роки тому +2

      That makes sense to me. Mix and matching different styles isn't really my method either. I included the minis in the preview just for scale. But I've certainly run adventures with just standees and that's worked out well, especially when the art is gorgeous. -Theo

    • @josephskiles
      @josephskiles 3 роки тому +1

      @@TheGallantGoblin yeah I remember one of the first things I did back in the early 90's was use a copy machine to run off images I got from the instruction booklets and magazines from old nes games like the original final fantasy then glue them on cardboard to make pc and non pcs and had just as much fun as some game played using elaborately painted beautiful Ral Partha models for everything. In the end it really does just boil down to them being just another tool for your imagination , the mixing thing is just a weird quirk I have, I have played with players that absolutely must have a proper miniature for every monster at every encounter and I always found that a bit silly as well, in fact I actually feel from my experience of running games ( especially good ol Ravenloft) that it can be extremely beneficial to keep your players on edge by not exactly spelling out what they are encountering . Is that undead creature in front of them a zombie? A Ghoul? A Ghast? Maybe something like a revanant? Not letting them know just by a glance at a mini keeps them from getting to comfortable, and as DMs we never want to let them feel comfortable because that often breeds boredom.

    • @TheGallantGoblin
      @TheGallantGoblin  3 роки тому

      Excellent point! It can be tricky to play with people who can identify a creature by its mini alone. Sometimes I'll hold off on dropping the mini onto the table until they've been able to identify the creature. -Theo

      @@TheGallantGoblin that's a really great trick all DMs should use to preserve tension, and I'm glad you brought it up! I know you guys work extremely hard but I hope one day if things get less hectic you might consider doing a video or 2 on little DM tricks like not always putting all of your minis out to be viewed .tips like this can really improve how rookie DMs run their games and is a good brush up for us more experienced ones as well.
