Friday<\/strong>: Ran my IDC<\/a> game two days early, so that Jackie could be around<\/a>. All went well<\/a>, as the group “broke” the module quite nicely and fittingly, and we got to use a couple of fun FATE mechanics to good effect<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jackie, alas, did not get an opportunity to blow things up. Though she did a great Leap out of the darkness and take down the guard with a crushing blow to the larynx<\/em> bit. <\/p>\n

Still another session away from finishing this module, though.<\/p>\n

Saturday<\/strong>: Ironically, no gaming. Ironic because it was Worldwide 30th Anniversary of D&D Geek-Out Day<\/a>, or something like that.<\/p>\n

Sunday<\/strong>: Generated characters for Doyce’s Dogs in the Vinyard<\/a><\/em> game. This seems like a tremendously fun setting, and the character generation was enjoyable (some great tropes to play with in a “Grimy and gritty paladins of the Old West, or maybe a fictionalized Utah” setting). The conflict resolution mechanic seems sound, but lengthy (some of which will, of course, come more naturally with practice, but I’m concerned it will still dominate roleplay overly much).<\/p>\n

I look forward to some actual Walking into town and seein’ what’s what<\/em> play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
