Just stupid shit like that, plot armor for the DM. Really takes the fun out of it. You get railroaded and that literally defeats the purpose of DnD, a game which is supposedly limitless.
The best proof I have that it is in fact railroaded, is our DM had us cone across a horde of possesed people, with a zombie like virus, only demonic in nature. They were attracted to light, so we devised a plan to lead them into town and start a zombie apocalypse. They had been following us for a while, so we knew that had unlimited range, but DM just made it get so cold that we had to abandon luring them or else we would die in the cold because he didn't want us to start a zombie apocalypse because he didn't have that planned out.
If you DM, and you think the players are gonna do what you want them to do, you're naive. And if you think you should force them to do what you want them to do, then you shouldn't be DM. Obviously, the DM should keep the players on track and not let shit get retardedly off base. But there is a difference between keeping things interesting and keeping players focused than just forcing them step by step to play your fantasy
I fucked up. Forgot the signal heee won't let me use xalls out ti multiple people/aps
@Fe4r_incarnate heck now it makes sense
yee
hey I run AD&D 2e constantly on Roll20
if anyone's into that ed
Never done 2e
I've done 5e and homebrew
2e has an unwarranted reputation for being difficult to learn but when you're using something like roll20 it takes a lot of the dumb-math and automates it so it's easy to at least play it
2e is the Best
Anyone here interested in VTM?
What's that
Vampire the Masquerade, set in the modern day you play as a vampire trying to not die, uses a d10 system I think is pretty neat and has lightning fast character creation, which is good because you die a lot for making common sense mistakes
@thedarkness05 if I ever join a starfinder game. I stg. I am going to play a Skittermander
Anyone ever done either a Deathwatch or Only War campaign?
Yes
Accidentally killed a pc in deathwatch
Yes
Yes it is
The 40k one
Nice, how do they handle different classes? Just different flavors of space marines or you get other imperial units?
@Piv deathwatch is individual space marines
Well first it is divided by what chapter you are from since Deathwatch is like a seal team 6 group you can come from all different chapters in the imperium , then it is divided again by what class you take which can be either a Tactical, Assault,Devastator, apothecary, and tech marine. Along with certain first founding chapters have special starting class as well
If you want different Imperial units like guard or something there is only war or Dark Heresy
Only war is the shit, just sayin
Or do a combination RPG of them just the marine characters will be extremely over powered especially if your GM lets you play Grey Knights into it ๐๐
It is not bad a only war campaign
Iโm going to be join a Deathwatch campaign that will be set in the Horus Heresy era
Dank
Deathwatch Seems like a really fun tactical game, does it use a regular d20 system?
It uses a d100 system
Perfect, I got a few of those lying around for random encounters in vampire the masquerade
Anyone want some adventure paths for Starfinder? I got a bunch of the physical books and I forgot how much space they take up
@thedarkness05 how much ya want for em?!
