Confession of a rule-lawyer | The Gamosopher

https://thegamosopher.wordpress.com/2015/03/06/confession-of-a-rule-lawyer

Thinking about tabletop role-playing games. Confession of a rule-lawyer. But may be next time a similar situation arise. Bottom line : if there is a rule in play, I want to use it consistently, and not using it when it’s more convenient (for the sake of the story or book-keeping or whatever) makes the game less fun for me. Sounds like fun to you? For a rule-lawyer like me, it’s the dream : following the rule is simple, so there’s rarely a reason to not follow it. March 6, 2015. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Dungeon World alternate monster creation | The Gamosopher

https://thegamosopher.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/dungeon-world-alternate-monster-creation

Thinking about tabletop role-playing games. Dungeon World alternate monster creation. I am a big fan of Dungeon World. One of its greatest strenght is the way it connects the fiction to the mechanics : in DW, the mechanical rules will fight you if you think about the game in an abstract instead of narrative way, not the other way around. But the way monsters’ HP and damage are calculated goes directly against this. The official method. Tiny : 3 HP, d6-2 damage. Small and Medium : 3 HP, d6 damage. Huge mo...

Hit points hacking | The Gamosopher

https://thegamosopher.wordpress.com/2015/01/04/hit-points-hacking

Thinking about tabletop role-playing games. But in my mind, a character stats should represent something about the character. HP is no different. But what, exactly, does it represent? What does it mean, from a character’s point of view, to lose HP? What is the difference between an axe swing that deals 0, 3 and 13 HP damage? Between being at 75% HP and 25% HP? Between a character that has a maximum of 4, 12 or 60 HP? Between a character that can deal 1d6 HP damage and another that can deal 10d6 12? I sti...

https://thegamosopher.wordpress.com/page/2

Thinking about tabletop role-playing games. Invisible walls and railroading. A quick thought today : I stumbled on this article. About the “The 13 worst game design crimes”. It’s about computer games, but some points could also be applied to tabletop RPGs (the numbers are from the article) :. Defeating the player in a cutscene. Which is pretty self-explanatory. Invisible walls and unconquerable waist-high barriers. Where a choice is offered to the player, but all choices but one is doomed to fail. This c...

Sometimes, we should not use HP and damage | The Gamosopher

https://thegamosopher.wordpress.com/2014/10/04/sometimes-we-should-not-use-hp-and-damage

Thinking about tabletop role-playing games. Sometimes, we should not use HP and damage. Player : I swing my axe at it. [Roll]. 13 damage. GM : You killed it! A post from the Angry DM. Got me thinking : why not make an explicit rule in D&D (I’m thinking 3.5 and 5) that an attack does not always involve damage and HP? That HP and damage are in play when opponents 1) are fighting each other and 2) are in a situation where it makes sense to fight? The thief sneaks in the barracks and try to kill a guard?

Site Update – Patreon @ 7 Months. August 4th, 2015. For helping to make the nifty stuff I’ve been able to share with all of you over the past half year a reality.

But if we can get 20 or 30 people who are all willing to give that dime, then it can make a big difference. So… what’s next for the Patreon?

What a best friend might say. A Message from 1878. March 23, 2014. As the Armenian town of Kessab in Syria is under siege, its Armenian population has been completely evacuated, with many Armenians hiding in churches. CivilNet reports that the church is sending a delegation to Latakia to see what help the escapees need. Given the circumstances, I thought the passage below was appropriate. It was written in ….
