    MrAgdesh got a reaction from Norm in Hero Games 2022 Update   
    Nothing I want or need from this year's releases then.
     
    Regarding a Patreon, as Norm said, it would depend on the content. There are an awful lot of Patreons now and only so much money. An Advanced Player's Guide III sounds vaguely interesting, but Martial World not at all.
     
    Mythic Hero would cause me to sign up straight away.

    Yes, I backed the Kickstarter as well, so I know where you’re coming from. As it is, I use it as source material for a potential Hero campaign setting I would run.

    Pirates for me out of that lot. I started doing some 7th Sea conversion stuff awhile back. Its a great setting but the mechanics are too Theatre of the Mind for me.
     
    Other than that, I'm currently only interested in Westerns and Modern horror (a Stranger Things/Kids on Bikes game being a lighter approach to the latter).

    There is a section in the 6E Bestiary of Celtic Monsters. I'm wondering what this has above and beyond that? That section has 17 monsters written up but the info for the above lists many of them but dozens more. Can we have some expanded info on that?

    If you've got people armed illegally over there with lawn darts then I can see why you'd need an ak-47 for safety.

    Strangely, this seems to be a uniquely USA problem.
     
    They are still legal everywhere else on the planet.
     
    The US is odd....  Nope; cant have lawn darts, but get a free rifle when you open a bank account.

    Lawn darts are a fun but wildly dangerous game from the 70s.  Basically they were huge heavy darts kind of like the Romans used to use.  You'd step out a target on the ground in the distance, toss them in the air, and try to land them in the target.  Pretty entertaining.
     
    But they were sharp and heavy and kids used to do stuff like throw them straight up the air as hard as they can and well, predictable results.  They've since been banned.

    I’ve got a few friends in the States - gaming and otherwise although one of the gamers is currently in the military and serving in Italy.
     
    I’ve reached out to them but awaiting some comeback. If I don’t have any joy I would appreciate anyone that could help me out and would naturally reimburse them first!
     
    Drivethru use USPS and their prices seem to have escalated dramatically. The current pandemic doesn’t help and neither does the mistake of Brexit (sigh).
     
    Cheers for the offers anyhow. 
    I’ve never heard of lawn darts! 🤣
     
    Are they an exclusively quirky British thing?!

    I'll swap you a paper copy for a set of lawn darts.
     
    Serious offer.  My lawn darts are starting to crumble with age (had them since the 70s).

    Maybe we could get a copy and mail it to MrAgdesh, shipping isn't horrible for a media product directly to someone.
     
    Meanwhile, I'm finishing up the final bits of a module to go with Western Hero, a Town Taming adventure where the PCs ride into a town to kick out the bad guys and calm things down!
     
    The Taming of Tascora should be out next week, depending on how things go here at home.

    It's things like that which makes me think that everyone should have a close friend in the US who is willing to buy it for you and send it from their home as a gift.

    Bought the PDF (anything other than virtual products via Drivethru are prohibitively expensive to the UK).

    MrAgdesh reacted to Hugh Neilson in Just looking for some feedback on 6th   
    I don't believe there are plans to reprint the hardcovers.  One advantage of .pdf's is the ability to word search (more pages makes that higher value).  Note that an "hh" in wordsearch stands in for the HexMan, making it easier to locate a title or subtitle like a power name.

    1d6 Continuous AoE Stun Drain, 0 END, No Range, 1 Fuel Charge (how long can the candles burn continuously before they run out?), recovers immediately if candles snuffed.  Held by a 2 SPD individual, everyone within the radius who is asleep takes an average of 7 STUN per turn.  Light it up, wait a minute and they are not waking up while you rob the place.  The STUN comes back, and they are as asleep as they were before, when the candles are snuffed.

    I see where you’re going with the Lightsleep though that maybe not the best fit. 
     
    One complicated way I think would be a largish Suppress STUN and Suppress REC only on sleeping victims. 
     
    The easy way I think would be XDM: Sleep Dimension.

    I've never known END use to drag out combat. My only experience on malingering combats has been when defences have been too high compared to average damage dealt.
     
    I am using 6E. I keep End at 1/10 for Supers and 1/5 for Heroic level games.

    I think that you can stun them all right, without causing BODY, (so I'd drop the Takes BODY Only).
    And add Susceptibility to Ion weapons  - 2 x STUN.
