I am glad I waited till today to donate, tho. It made it easier. In honor of the wounded fellow who got me this AV, I increased my donation by the five bucks it would have cost to get a new one. In honor of my fallen Mick Foley AV, I sent it to RAINN.

I've been mulling over opening a "post your creations from yesteryear" thread, after finding my very first D&D adventure I wrote up. Just a way people can share the good the bad and the laughable rpg stuff they've made over the years. If there's an interest I'll definitely scan that awful adventure and start it up.

LightWarden posted:They're also for smartphones and the like, though I haven't tried them there. Just in case, the Ace Attorney ports to iOS are really, really awful. The art got a lovely up-rez and the text is littered with gems like "stake lunch." The Ghost Trick port is really good, though, and you should play Ghost Trick, feebs.

I never saved any of my old adventures from when I was a teenager, but I remember my first adventure clearly. It was a railroady mess in which the adventurers experience a "groundhog day" scenario that compels them to visit my first DMPC, a time wizard who sends them off on all kinds of unseemly tasks... including my Christmas Special in which the party is commissioned to find and kill the child who would someday grow up to threaten the wizard's supremacy. poo poo, I'm one of the bad ones. E: To their credit, the players chose to obfuscate the location of the child and lie about killing him.

Most of what I remember about my early DMing days is a campaign that never got to end, which was about rats. The villains of the campaign were magic rats and wererats and all kinds of rats, as many as I could dig up stats for. Their evil plan was to try to propel their leader to godhood as the God of Corruption by starting and spreading a disease at some vital point and corrupting some druids and ???. The trick to all this was that their leader wasn't a wererat. Or even a single being. It was a Dire Rat King whose component dire rats had achieved a sort of evil hivemind. The game fell apart due to RL circumstances shortly after one of the party became a wererat to infiltrate the villain camp. That was going to be fun, I'd thought, because the rat king could influence and command rodent minds.

I remember rarely playing more than a handful of sessions of any rpg or campaign we started. We tried a lot of games back then...

XTOwl posted:Yes. One went on ebay for $40 earlier this month (here). It's also a really good game. If you like Burning Wheel you'll be jazzed. Lightning Lord posted:Do you like nicely detailed rules for melee combat? Do you like being Conan of Cimmeria? If so, yes. fatherdog posted:Think of whatever the most complicated melee combat system you've ever played was. Was that not complicated enough for you? If so, Riddle of Steel is probably a good buy. If not, no. I am always up for some hardcore rapier simulation, so this sounds good to me!

Is this the SECRET of your name? And were cranium rats involved? I love those goofy-rear end things. Charity Count: $2061.93

Not so much? My username is just a dog latin Discworld reference. I think I had cranium rat stats, so probably. I recall the idea coming to me after combing through some old books and realizing I had stats for at least seven different kinds of rat.

My first campaign involved terrorists from an alternate universe trying to bomb the Imperial Palace in Tokyo because they were an alien species who used radio waves to think and our technology was driving them insane. (Sort of a hybrid between aliens from a Zahn book and aliens from a Vinge book.) It was a BESM campaign. It was not very good.
