    destroyah87 if you go to the first post of the thread here its a list of good modules and probably ones most people here are using.
    i know a lot of people from the steam trhread usually try to get a friday night game going and tts has been popular lately so that might happen friday, but if youre looking more towards saturday/sunday, then you are correct that a losely planned dnd is happening this saturday. but ill probably be on steam a fair amount saturday and sunday and try to check the forums so put me down for a tentative saturday afternoon based on the assumption that Scratchy is planning to roll out the dnd in the evening

    Petesalzl, thanks.

    And yeah, I know about FNG and the playing of TTS. Unfortunately, Friday evening/nights are the one night a week that I always have plans. I have a Friday evening open once every six months, if that. So that's why I'm asking around for interest or participation in other times, either one off events or a weekly event.

    Done with streaming. I made some good progress, and found some pitfalls.

    I tried my darndest to get the word out.


    also
    thanks for sharing that @DyasAlure it was cool to see that coming together and see what sort of things seemed to work and what didnt work. a few things i noticed and you did seem to be figuring it out, but like when you were making those 4 sections for NESW, you could have made one all built up how you wanted, then copied the whole thing and pasted it three times.
    also,it might be more time saving to take all of the objects out of a bag and clump em together best you can then select them all and save those clumps to the chest because the spawn from chest will spawn everything you have selected when saved. that way you dont have to pull them out of the bag one at a time and put them back in, you can spwan them, make copies of what you need and group selcet delete the rest.
    and when grouping, it does allow you to control+click items to make a selection, so they can be scattered all over the table and they will save in the exact position you saved them

    not sure if any of that is helpful advice, but i hope

    Very very helpful, I haven't had a chance to watch the stream entirely but that and the grouping chest items answers a lot of my questions I had. While switching maps I was doing it very bass ackwards with copy and paste shenanigans so very awesome stuffs.

    Awesome. There are SmashUp and Sentinels of the Multiverse modules. Cool.

    Ooh, and Wiz-War too.

    @destroyah87

    I can make the Saturday evening and maybe Sunday evening time slots.

    Depending on how long I stream I make make it 2+ hours late to the late Saturday slot.

    Copy and paste seemed to have some interesting qualities. I will try and explain if I get a chance again. At the end of the stream, you will note I decided I needed to do a lot of back work to make my bags.

    ah, well i havent really messed around with it myself all that much, so thank you again for testing it out and sharing it. clearly it isnt a quick process, but its great to see that it has the possibility to make some really amazing tabletop rpg settings

    I tried to copy and past 3 corners at once. I than had all 3 secelcted, and when I rotated, they stayed in there x y location, and rotated around individual axis, instead of rotating around a shared axis. I don't know where it is in the video. I do want to make some highlights and shorter video of what I learned.

    Edit:
    So in combining all my minitures into one bag for easy access, I found that you can just click "add to chest" and it will update the item, adding any new things you added to the bag, if you don't change the name.

    last couple days work has been a nightmare and i basically go home and go to sleep, but it seems like the tabletop has fallen off a bit. anyone up for a game tonight or tomorrow?
    it sort of sounds like in the steam thread is planning on doing rocket league for FNG and i refuse to get that game because its a knockoff of the excitebike 64 soccer bonus mini game that people used to tell me was stupid when i wanted to play it back in the day. and my world is built around stubbornness. a core of stubbornness surrounded by stubbornness. but now ive said too much

  • Lindsay LohanLindsay Lohan Registered User regular
    I'd be up for a game Friday probably. I suck at Rocket League so Tabletop Sim would be great.

    Rocket League is great. Don't let your stubbornness deprive you of playing Rocket League.

    So very far behind from where I wanted to be. Got two folks from my wifeypoo's workplace who might end up joining us. To folks who are interested here is the current state of the world for our campaign.

    @Firebird @Petesalzl @DyasAlure @TeeMan @cooljammer00
    Population: 40% Human, 30% Elf, 10% Half-Elf, 20% the rest. Magical or seemingly magical beings have been hunted to near extinction due to what was known as The Catastrophe. The year is 200 A.C. (After Catastrophe).

    A.C. 1-50: All contact with the Gods was cut off. The world was ripped apart by wars between the clergy to regain favor with their deity's at hopes of restoring communication. Necromancy practitioners and Clerics were targeted first by all sides and factions were formed. It didn't take long for those magically inclined to be outright destroyed or go into hiding. Those that were strong enough formed their own factions and thrived on the death and destruction.

    A.C. 50-100: Healing the sick, saving the meek, spilling the blood of their enemies the Clerics realized that their abilities were their own, the Gods weren't coming back or were never there to begin with. Factions broke and the populace began worshiping Clerics with their seemingly Godlike powers.

    A.C. 100-130: Lich's, Necromancers long in hiding, Evil Clerics, and those that served death washed over the land. With their faction of blind followers, none were spared. Entire cities were razed to the ground before a counterattack could be mustered.

    A.C. 130-135: Half the population was wiped out, magic almost ceases to exist at all, mythical beings are mythical now.

    A.C. 135: Good Clerics, survivors of the great war rule all major towns (naming themselves The Order of the Light.) Children are screened for magical abilities and summarily executed if they show signs of necromancy. An outcast group known as the Followers of the Catastrophe is formed, believing magic is a boon and even necromancy has a place.

    A.C. 135-170: The Followers of The Catostrophe and the Order of the Light have had minor skirmishes, magic is beginning to be introduced again due to the efforts of The Followers. Children showing signs of abilities have been carried away and raised in secret.

    A.C. 170-Present: All has been seemingly quiet, many speak of the days when the world could be shaped with a thought and of the terrible things that could occur when those thoughts were wicked.

    To the Players: For years you've always known you were meant for greater things, you were special. You've dreamed of the day that you would rise above your farmer Father, cut purse Mother, brigand Uncle. You've hid your powers too long and you mean to make the world a better place. You've always dreamed of it but it wasn't until recently until your dreams got more and more vivid. You've dreamed the same thing for the past year, a God, shapeless and voiceless at first. As time goes on, it takes form. It begins speaking to you in your dreams. "Head to the tavern", it says to you. Restore the order, or all is lost. You know the location of this tavern somehow already and make your way there, letting your dreams guide you. You arrive and notice others with the same look in their eyes.

    The Witness has consumed my soul. If I finish it this weekend I'll be down for board games on either Saturday on Sunday. Don't want to commit yet because... puzzles.

  • DyasAlureDyasAlure SeattleRegistered User regular
    I don't have rocket leauge. I won't be around for FNG anyway tough.

    On Tabletop, I have been home with a sick son for two days. I have not had time to do much with it, but I do plan on getting back to my RPG. This seems more approachable to me than Roll20 ever did. The last thing? Find time to do this with people.

    If however you see me on, feel free to ask to play a game.

    Scratchy, I know I expressed interest, but I had not made a character. I also am unsure when this is going on, as I have a crazy schedule. I guess I could make a character just in case.

    I'd hate to disappoint, one of those rats is a deity. Hope spot checks, lore, maybe even listen checks are up to par.

    I mean you could kill the rat god that lead you all there, then wander around a bit.

    Rat God ha, this isn't fallout, you'll have to delve deeper. Starting with rats in a tavern because it's a tried and true way to success.

    I appreciate the work you've put into the lore of this world.

    I guess I should really get around to making that character if I'm gonna play. Or maybe I'll just sit back and watch you guys do it. Less pressure.

    im playing the down on his luck second hand knight who apparently works as a part time guard/part time dung shoveler for a travelling new and used garment salesman. little bit of a drinking problem, but this time on his way to the tavern he is getting a little sense that this time its his divine purpose to go drink.

    Ended up spending the night in Orlando and didn't have time to get finalized. Gonna have to postpone a couple of days to pick up a new mic. If you haven't done feats or equipment yet on your character you have a few extra days to do it before I just plug random stuff in for your character.

    Wanted to thank @Petesalzl (the cheater :razz:) and @destroyah87 thanks for guiding me through a game of Boss Monster. Very interesting and easy to get a hang of, almost won due to spell card abuse--seriously, didn't realize drawing new spell cards is kinda hard to do. I look forward to playing some more. Nice 2-4 game that moves much quicker than Suburbia.

    Now back to studying but I'll be up for more later.

    I already had my feats, skills and equipment done. But trying to get a bead on what else I need filled, (fortitude, reflex, HP, etc.) I got in over my head trying to figure it out.
    Not mention I was feeling quite ill these past few days with a stomach virus, so I ended up fearing not being able to get in on time.

    No worries, if you sent it to me I've got it. I'll fill out any blanks. I'll probably post all of the character sheets in the next couple of days completely filled out so if you need to make feat/equipment changes do so by then.

    So, tomorrow I have the day off, and plan on working on my pathfinder thing. The first thing I plan on doing is streaming me making a character. I'm going to use hero lab, and anyone who wants to make a character feel free to ask me and I will make a character for you while you chat via twitch. Hero Lab automates the process, and should be much easier for you to visually see what is going on. If you want a quick peak YouTube has a video

    On this, I really want to do this, and I all ready have ideas on how I plan on running this. First things first, I want people to have fun, but realize people have lives. That being said, I think I will implement my own house rule of group exp. I will do this, so that i can easily handle everyone being of the same level and encounters. That being said, I plan on tracking exp for each play session, and Retroactive Continuity (RetCon) players in and out as they can or can't make the sessions.

    I have an over arcing story that makes this easy to do. With this being said, encounters will be made on the fly for this purpose. My story will have encounters at locations, but no set CR for them. It will depend on when the party hits a trigger point. I guess think of it how some RPG's enemy's level with the party. I do plan on having some bosses, that will be semi pre-made. The CR for fights with them will change as needed as well, but I will keep that to myself for now.

    The only thing for my pathfinder (duh this is a tabletop simulator thread) you need that game. I will be using it to play the game. I also am switching tables, and plan on utilizing the tablet in the simulator for our characters. I want people to store their sheets online somehow. I plan on testing this out tomorrow as well.

    Last, scratchy I am more than happy and interested in following what you do, but am unsure if I will play. I have had no time to make a character, and know nothing about DnD creation. I'm more than happy to play a pre-made if I can make it to something you do and you need/want me there.

    Oh DyasAlure looks like you missed an L in that [/url] hence the overly long link.

    Alas it doesn't look like the Hero Lab doesn't let your roll an Alchemist otherwise I'd be tempted to do that just for funsies.

    I may still roll a cleric for your campaign Scratchy. I just need to be less lazy and just use 3.5e because 3e pdfs online seem to not exist.

    If you know how to roll an alchemist, I'm fine with that. I was just going to use Hero Lab to help those who don't know how to make characters.

    I thought I had edited that post too :question: but it is fixed now.

    Edit:
    Oh, and I plan on doing point buy high fantasy (20). Also, you get max gold.

    So alchemist:

    Starting Wealth: 3d6 × 10 gp (average 105gp.) In addition, each character begins play with an outfit worth 10 gp or less.

    Assume you rolled (6+6+6)x10 = 180 gp.

    Edit 2:
    I'm surprised that class isn't in there. I think everything can be in hero lab, just some of the extra things need to buy. Granted I only bought the core set, but I figured it would help those who have never rolled a character.

    Just FYI @Karoz scratchy set up his dnd campaign so magic had been outlawed, and magic users are usually met with bigotry style hate. So a cleric might have a tough go of it.

  • DyasAlureDyasAlure SeattleRegistered User regular
    So I was looking, this is what I found on alchemist:
    Bard Class Pack – unlocks includes Bard, Alchemist, Occultist, and Vigilante (upon release of Ultimate Intrigue, Spring 2016) ($6.99)

    I think it will be part of the core pack I bought, and I should get the upgrade as i went the other path. However, it may or may not be in there till 2016? I can check when I get home if it is.

    Fair enough, whenever I brought that up his response was basically "fuck it, do it."

    I just want to play a healer which all healing spells bar potions come from divine magic so sort of limits my options. Also why I'm interested in an alchemist in Pathfinder.

    It is really an interest in doing something other than Cleric (Bard, Paladin and Druid can work as healer too but eh, no one quite has that quick healing) though honestly I haven't actually played as a pure cleric. Closest was a True Necromancer due to high school and Diablo 2.

  • cooljammer00cooljammer00 Hey Small Christmas-Man!Registered User regular
    Now that I think about it, I kinda wanna transfer my character from AkaJayBay's space RPG game over to this DnD campaign, obviously with a few tweaks. IIRC, he was somewhat mysteriously vaporized at the end of that story, but I don't see why he can't have been sent to Scratchy's world.

    Are people allowed to have guns in DnD?
