    1 Language: Aarr (basic conversation)

    Notes: A simple language, Aarr resembles English. Each sentance must begin with the word "aarr". Near random use of "Me Maties" is also encourged.

    "Aye!"

    Re: Old Shotgun Question

     

    For all you gun experts.

     

    Antique Shotgun

     

    Is this a percussion cap shotgun? It looks a little like it to me but I've not found a date for it yet so I'm not sure.

     

    Thanks.

     

    Look at the gizmo right in front of the hammer. Its a single piece, if it were the firing pin thered be a line between two pieces. Theres also shiny area where caps were forced onto it. Its definately a p. cap. :D

  9. How does Mass Combat work in FH?

    in Fantasy Hero

    Posted

    Re: How does Mass Combat work in FH?

     

    LTE is super easy. If' date=' in one Turn, you're burning more than twice your REC in END, you lose 1 point of LTE, which means your [b']maximum END[/b] is (your normal maximum END) -1. If you're using more than that, you lose more LTE per Turn. If you're using more than 1/2 your REC but less than twice your REC, you still lose LTE, but you have to burn that much END over a longer period of time to lose even 1 LTE. Eventually, if you keep burning that much END, you'll get exhausted, and your temporary maximum END will be 0.

    See this is what confused me and you cleared up. LTE temporarily reduces your END allowedment. So if my char. has 55 END on the sheet and 15 REC on the sheet and has taken 5 LTE and then fought and burned 25 END if he takes 2 post-12 Recoveries he doesn't get 30 END back because his END allowedment is 50 until he Recovers from the LTE so he's only up to 50 END.

     

    Or am I still not getting it? :(

  10. How do you focus on things?

    Re: How do you focus on things?

     

    I only say write it down later because I have had to many notes that I could not understand 2 weeks later' date=' if this afliction does not strike you then you are probably safe not to[/quote']

    I always found if I couldn't figure it out later it wasn't a good idea anyhow.

     

    But I write detailed mostly so it doesn't much happen. :D

  11. Irksome players

    in Fantasy Hero

    Posted

    Re: Irksome players

     

    Lots of bad roleplaying comments posted that I can wholeheartedly empathized with (although I confess I have trouble holding still myself).

     

    My most irksome player was frustrating because he was really trying hard but he was just clueless. He was really enthusiastic and had all sorts of nicely creative thinking that was just totally wrong.

     

    For instance, the heroes faced off against a big netherworld creature. The mage throws a fireball at it and it is unfazed. So this guy tries to throw flaming oil on it because "Maybe this fire will hurt it because it lasts longer! Besides it has to be really distracting to be on fire!"

     

    Or the heroes are battling a powerful wizard who is tromping them. Now the point of this combat was to show the players that they would have to retreat and out-think their foe instead of battle with him. When the other players realize this and start to pull out, this guy goes over to the wizard and gives him his magic ring "as a show of good faith so we can be friends. Then when his back is turned and his defenses are down I stab him!"

     

    Or the heroes are trying to hunt down a strangely powerful troll that has been terrorizing a village. This guy's solution is to buy all the livestock in the village, string them all together with a lot of rope, and then parade the animals around the wilderness. Then the troll, lured by all the food, will grab some of the livestock but the heroes will know it because they are all tied together and they can swoop down on them.

     

    It was kind of sad really. Eventually the guy got discouraged and left, which was too bad because in most other ways he was really a pretty good player.

    The first one is "wider 'n higher" which doesn't often work the 2nd was dumb but the third had possibles but needed work but could've been made to work. Why'd you put it in with the others?

     

    Some way to tell where in the line of animals got smash 'n grabbed by the troll. Or doesn't the troll eat or something is that why its a dumb idea?

  14. How do you focus on things?

    Re: How do you focus on things?

     

    Carry a notebook with you (one of those little spiral ones), when you get an idea jot it down, when you get home have a folder on your computer, with sub folders based on different areas of intrest (Different regions, package deals, magic, races,etc)

     

    This is VERY important TYPE UP everything that night so you can remember it more clearly and file it where you want it. Let it be a "Living world" don't try to have everything done before you start, but instead have what you need and start building...

    I'm with you on writing ideas down the moment they hit, but I disagree the rest.

     

    Write it down so it don't bug you and block you. BUT PUT IT ASIDE AND DOWN REREAD IT. Or you're so distracted you don't get the outline done.

     

    Oh yeah that's the important thing. Make an outline. Get all the basics down before fricking around the details. Have a complete framework. Real general---you don't need the king of Whereveria, just that its a kingdom. And Hereisia is a free city and economicly pwns Whereveria. The basics, dude!

     

    THEN you pick up the notebook and put in all the neat ideas and the neat ideas you have putting the notbook stuff into the outline. It grows that way. You don't got your nose so close to the tree you forget to writ ethe forest know what I mean?

     

    Cause when frameworks there you keep everything proportion to the rest. ;)

  19. NOBLES, KNIGHTS, AND NECROMANCERS -- What Do *You* Want To See?

    in Fantasy Hero

    Posted

    Re: NOBLES, KNIGHTS, AND NECROMANCERS -- What Do *You* Want To See?

     

    The Regency Council. The king is too young to rule so there's folx in charge until he's old enough. They can be united, all under one guy's thumb, or intriguing each other. The last leads to breakdown in the kingdom. The king can be a baby nearly, or almost old enough to take over (and the council is trying to stop him so they're almost doing treason).

     

    Variation: there's just one Regent.

     

    Variation: the king is old and senile.

     

    Other idea: The Rebelious Duke. Major noble is in rebellion. He could be evil and want to take over, he could be good and is trying to throw out an evil king (but the war is causing bad shtuff in the land), he could be misguided, he could be trying to restore what used to be a independent country.
