Hard disagree. Thee band should be celebrating my values and people every Saturday. They should do loving tributes to the heroes at ICE and Space Marines, Marse Robert, Space X, and Christ the King.

Reminding TV nerds that they only rented a seat in the Big House. Give this crew credit, they handled the hazing with grace and good humor.

Real talk: sports TV talking heads spent years clinging to modern media's hatred of me and my fellow countrymen. If I seem overly critical of them, just remember... they hated you first.

Who's the guy that gets a quarter every time a sports stenographer calls the end of a college football game a "walk off win"?

These guys are more concerned with using this year's cool kids slang than the dopiest Cali tween. Kinda pathetic.

I'm a traditional kinda guy, and monetizing hit threads is tradition, so give my friends money. This is the best RPG supplement ever written. drivethrurpg.com/en/product/…

Conventional view: AD&D is hard to understand because of organization and vague separation between mechanics and design notes Me: I understand it just fine This thread: why you smug little turd
Replying to @daydreamtiger1
He did the best he could and about as well as the average gamer. No shade, it takes superior players and serious intellectual firepower to get the full value out of a game of AD&D. It's not for everyone.

RETVRN It keeps out the riff-raff.

Skill issue. This game is not too deadly. Combat is deadly, but that's a different question. Smart players find alternative solutions outside the combat system, or do everything possible to stack odds in their favor before the balloon goes up.
Many claim WFRP is too deadly for a dungeon crawler, but classic RPGs were just as brutal. My advice? Warn your players that this isn't a latter RPG-style power fantasy. Make it clear that character death and permanent disfigurement are on the table.

Buglers get the grays and reversed uniform colors, to make them more visible on a smoke choked battlefield.
