Mate don’t give spellcasters more power because you don’t understand the rules

Cyn could be referring to the general horror of a bunch of people being murdered rather than the fight specifically.

I feel like the events make more sense if either there are dead bodies of nobles showing struggle

The way it’s written makes it sound like those that opposed Delina fled but the timing of it doesn’t work out that well with the elevator.

I mean, yes it should be opt out.

I’d never put the player in this position in the first place because it just doesn’t seem fun

I bought a steamdeck and absolutely don’t regret it. You’re not going to be running cutting edge games but it can still handle a hell of a lot of

I’ve had Dragonsteel prime sitting on my phone for months now and have gotten a bit ways through it. It’s not bad per se, but just… not great. It’s neat to see some of his earlier ideas but its just hard to get through

That’s a very cool mix of abilities and off the top of my head, only the Willshaper and stoneward share a surge. Was this deliberate on anyone’s part or did they just naturally fall into different radiant orders?

I always lean on the side of “what makes the player feel the most badass” which would be option two, negating projectiles for as long as the infusion lasts

It would stack by itself. So +0 to the first hit. +1 to the second, +2 to the third and so on.

I do rather enjoy the sprinkling of lore connecting the adventure to the books. It helps ground it.

Yikes. I had this on my radar for a little while. Steam deck is the only way I play. Maybe I’ll revisit when it actually releases its 1.0

It’s a trap if all their tech usually breaks down then they think they got a lucky break with this one and can reverse engineer it.

Did you have any players decide to not become radiant? If so how did they compare with the radiant players?

How did you find the handling of player goals? Did what their goal was usually fall within what you were planning or did you need to figure out some way to include or change it?

Yes but there’s two kinds for me. Encounters that I plan beforehand I’ll typical figure out any magical or interesting items they have and factor that into the encounter. If my random lot table says the reward is three potions of healing then I’m going to give my enemies each a potion and the players can find three unbroken ones afterwards.

But for more random encounters the only loot they have is the ones the players decide upon. Sometimes they’ve taken the bandits weapons to sell later, sometimes they take parts from a monster and try and figure out how to use it later.

I recommend looking into “session 0” where you sit down with your players and discuss aspects of the game such as what you described, it’s a good place to go over the themes, the setting, character creation, etc. so everyone is on the same page.

Everyone needs a low point in their journey this was hers. A ton of people in the books say how smart Jasnah is but she’s really… not everything she claims she is.

She derides Shallan’s type of insults yet uses the exact same against Amaram. She’s incredibly dismissive of traditional female pursuits and finds no value in them. She jumps into the battlefield to play at being soldier even though she could make better use of her talents elsewhere, not even for a clever plan but because she wanted people to see her as a soldier or someone who could take to the field and she was horrible at it.

Other RPGs but really anything can be inspiring. From Odyssey of the Dragonlords I learned about Epic Backgrounds which were predetermined ways to tie the players into the setting and give them magical items and boons

From the cosmere rpg I learned about the Plot die which is a d6 that gives either a blank, an opportunity, or a complication. The complications give a +2 or +4 and have a negative effect like helping your enemies or having the alarm go off while in a heist. While opportunities are positive outcomes.

The others had whimsy?

Considering your comments have negative karma I don’t think it’s likely. Plus it’s generally sorted by “new”

Yes those example questions might not have been asked by anyone in the thread. Or someone six days from now could have asked it and not have seen your comment becuase it’s buried by all the newer ones.

Investigation actually. They failed to notice the context clues that this isn’t someone asking those questions. Such as it being posted every week, it being a pinned post, the automod, etc.

Luck is luck. If you don’t want the chance of complete failure don’t play a game that relies on dice rolls.

Let the players figure out what they want to do. If they want to bail let them bail.

Because the other pawn stopped working on it so now it’s considered movable. This guy has nothing better to do than haul stuff.

This is perfectly normal behaviour.

If you want to prevent stuff like this in the future then make a shelf next to the work station, set it to critical priority and set it so the only item it can hold is unfinished items/ unfinished weapons. So when they haul the item it’s placed right next to the bench.

Off the top of my head there’s a chance that if he’s from a charity quest he may be a traitor. But they usually just switch randomly and become hostile. Pawns cannot choose to fail a surgery for example.

If you’re really nervous about it just set him to do research only and you have a permanent researcher.

This is the thread to ask questions. The post itself is posing those as examples, not asking where to find maps.
