Friday roundup!
- A pretty cool paint job on this Reaper Miniatures shoggoth
- Over on Don't Forget Your Boots, I read Out With The Old, In With The Gnu
Too-different character concepts is a tough problem to overcome. I've gone as far as making meta-game pronouncements to ensure everyone has some reason to be together to avoid that problem. Even then, you get the guy who wants to run a fanatical holy warrior and the guy who wants to run an undead-making necromancer and yet still play together.*
The other issue he mentions is skill-boosting. High skills are part of the fun of my game, too, but once they hit a certain point nothing can usefully compete. This is why I'm very reluctant to hand out items that boost skill. I'd hand out a +3 Puissance sword or a +5 Strength belt before I'd pass out a +1 Dexterity ring. I'd rather hand out wishes than skill boosters or non-ST stat boosters.
- Next DF Felltower game is Friday.
- Speaking of megadungeons, Elfmaids & Octopi has a look at the big published ones. It's in eyebleeding white-on-black with red, though.
* They're fighting crime the hard way, wearing magic armor, with a +3 Puissance Holy Avenger and the Black Cauldron.
