Blades in the dark, the Forged in the dark games, or White lies have a way to do this.

First, the character do the plan, not the players. It means that the planning phase is just an ellipse and players have a limited flashback possibilities (ah yes, but in fact it was a possibility so my character knows that .. or has the need tool to ...) and they use clocks (4 to 8 pieces pies that are filled step by step, ok so one more tick on the "general red alert" clock, only to remaining).

Do you have a name for the opentelemetry collector? I'm interested.

In this context, who would write in letters of fire "We apologize for the inconvenience"? 😁

Why not rolling advantage with two d20 at once? Why playing DnD only? I needed 2d10 to play Ironsworn 10d10 for COPS, 2d6 for Dungeon World, 4d6 for Fate, 10d6 for Shadowrun, ...

Oh, no. Not again.

I am searching for a game with pirates and I am seriously tempted by Sea of Dead Men, a pirate flavor of Blades in the dark.

Well... It may be arguable that limiting the dev base to Europe only is damaging for Europe users thus regulators may make a comeback.

I am currently reading Cryptomancer, a game with crystals to do kind of Internet things.

I had such player at my table but it was more that they could ignore what they knew. So they still were doing perception checks and I was still responding but randomly, without saying it.

Once, for a critical failure on a perception check, I said they saw the lord was too bright, too clean, and wait are those scales? Could be a dragonborn or even more? They spend the full enquiry rejecting the possibility to have a dragon in disguise. Sad for them.

I heard someone if France saying that DnD has nearly 90% of the market in the US while only 40%-50% in France. Fantasy still has 70%.

Project Hail Mary? The hero is a former researcher and a junior/middle school teacher. It is used in the fiction as an excuse to make science understandable. I understand this level of science so I am biased but I think it is good enough.

I never read why the suns are fading. But I found a potential hard-scidence explanation in Project Hail Mary (I haven't finished it yet).

I want to try See of Dead Men but I need first to clarify how the factions have to be handled by the GM off session/during downtimes.

I am from Europe and it was really a surprise during the WotC/Hasbro's fuck up to discover that for a lot of people in the US, DnD and TTRPG are co considered to be the same thing.

• Finish the current high fantasy Campaign (GM)
• perhaps start a pirates / blades in the dark campaign (GM)
• Finish my current Ironsworn quest (Solo)

Yes. Different colors or different digits (1, 2, 3, ... and 10, 20, 30, ...).

It always disappoints me when I think of this, and this community which has been neglected, mocked, ... is unable to learn that those behaviours are bad. It's not all of them, sure. But they should unite against toxic masculinity behaviours. And they don't. People don't learn enough.

Is it what they use for campaign 3 or is there a side campaign for it?

For me, it also resonates with Renraku Archology, in Shadowrun and the lockdown which follows the rebellion of the AI responsible of its management.

Stil GM on a two years long campaign. High fantasy which started as Dungeon World and is now Fate.

The funny thing they still haven't found is that, except 2 NPCs they met, all others are honest and tell the truth. Some are blatantly incompetent or stupid though.
