--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 11:52, 21 August 2007 (MST)Before we play the first session of WFRP, I want everyone to mail me their initial Spiritual Attributes.  If I think some of them might work better if they were different, I'll let you know.

--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] -- Does everyone include meDUR! So I was looking at the Runesmiths from the Realms of Socery book... OH MAN I WISH I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THEM!  They are sooo cool.  Plus I've always wanted to play a Runesmith... b'ah.  I know Ben was talking about them but I thought he meant Rune Bearers or something.... GAH! Ah well, if I get my guy knocked off that is so my backup.

--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 12:35, 25 October 2007 (MST)How's the game going for you guysLikes/dislikes? I'm opening up the can of worms here, I know, but have at it!
  
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 15:08, 21 August 2007 (MST)I leaned away from them when I realized it takes months of work to make a rune.  But I agree they are really cool.
 
  
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 11:40, 22 August 2007 (MST)give me a breakthat new rule is sillyis the idea to punish anyone who gets their character killed and has to make a new character?  isn't that punishment enough?

Overall, yes I'm enjoying it.  However, the apperance of the pillar disheartens me.  Maybe it is only me, but that thing can fucking rot for all I careI wanted to be done with that oen and didn't really want some save the empire adventure, we already messed up saving the empire.  Now, I'm not saying that is WHAT the pillar is, but none the less I think having to retrace all our steps and collecting the pillars would be a pain.
  
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 13:00, 22 August 2007 (MST)It really should have almost no effect on gameplay: just max out your favorite stats, and then jiggle the restExample:  my current stats are WS 25, BS 20, S 20, T 30, Ag 30 Int 40 Will 40, Fel 40If I had to remake this character he would be: WS 24, BS 19, S 20, T 31, Ag 31, Int 40, Will 40, Fel 40.

Spells: Please note this isn't aimed directly at you Ben, but spellsWe were told that spells would be even less common now then they were, or we wouldn't see as much use of themThe fact that we have never had to make detect rolls to see spells being cast is kinda odd, for me that is.  But its been that way, so lets just keep it.
  
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 13:07, 22 August 2007 (MST) Um actually he said they can't end in a zero too.

I like the idea of building a crimnal or whatever empire, but this character was built FOR that.  If we start doing a bunch of occult stuff again I'm just gonna end up on the fench again not knowing about anything and just playing my violinShit can hit the fan, but it should be shit everyone can help clean up.
  
Eh whadever, a % here or there doesn't matter too much.
+
NOW, most all of this is based on the very thin assumption that we are going to be doing the pillar stuff again.
  
Actually instead of the can't end in a 0 or 5... you could make it so we can't leave anything as it is, or lower it.  For example my toughness is 20... you can't get that rollingAnd you can't get lower by rolling so allowing us to do that lets us min/maxJust a thought.
+
I am enjoying the small town we are part of.  I would have liked us to been able to strong arm a bit more.  For being a cut throat place, everyone is still very high class crime likeBy this I mean there have not been many fights, at allOr killings even.
  
We just do 0's and 5's because it is easier to keep track of.

Killing the cult was GREAT.  I loved that, no thinking about it, cult = evil = kill.  I would love to have an enemy we could unite against, but not one we must constantly run from.  Plotting to take out a huge politcal figure can be quite fun.

--Matts 12:35, 25 October 2007 (MST)How's the game going for you guys? Likes/dislikes? I'm opening up the can of worms here, I know, but have at it!


--Gdaze-- Overall, yes I'm enjoying it. However, the apperance of the pillar disheartens me. Maybe it is only me, but that thing can fucking rot for all I care. I wanted to be done with that oen and didn't really want some save the empire adventure, we already messed up saving the empire. Now, I'm not saying that is WHAT the pillar is, but none the less I think having to retrace all our steps and collecting the pillars would be a pain.

Spells: Please note this isn't aimed directly at you Ben, but spells. We were told that spells would be even less common now then they were, or we wouldn't see as much use of them. The fact that we have never had to make detect rolls to see spells being cast is kinda odd, for me that is. But its been that way, so lets just keep it.

I like the idea of building a crimnal or whatever empire, but this character was built FOR that. If we start doing a bunch of occult stuff again I'm just gonna end up on the fench again not knowing about anything and just playing my violin. Shit can hit the fan, but it should be shit everyone can help clean up.

NOW, most all of this is based on the very thin assumption that we are going to be doing the pillar stuff again.

I am enjoying the small town we are part of. I would have liked us to been able to strong arm a bit more. For being a cut throat place, everyone is still very high class crime like. By this I mean there have not been many fights, at all. Or killings even.

Killing the cult was GREAT. I loved that, no thinking about it, cult = evil = kill. I would love to have an enemy we could unite against, but not one we must constantly run from. Plotting to take out a huge politcal figure can be quite fun.

Biggest concern: Tons of occult stuff show up when this was suppose to be about smuggling. Also I'm a little unsure as to what occult things one might know, and what they wouldn't, I would love to see a list clairfing this. Use of fate points to affect the story (I believe fate points are to affect you, not the world)

Biggest likes: I like all the characters. Characters work fairly well although secrets still abound (don't like that), Dwarf Ruins! A++++++++++!


BEN: I like the game, so far, in its entirety

--Edmiao 08:47, 26 October 2007 (MST) perhaps it is because i missed two sessions, but i have no excitement for the game. i mean, it's not bad it's ok, I just don't have a lot of enthusiasm for it. Maybe it's because i'm bored of my character already, which probably arose from the bad start i got with him and that huge debate. there's your worms.

--Gdaze-- You guys suck. I write all that and you write little blurbs! Of course clearly my writing was me trying to get all my ideas into a some what understandable... thing... of... words... Also I was slacking off at work.

To go along with what Ed is saying, I feel kinda the same way. I enjoy playing my character, but the excitement is kinda dwindling.I think Elrin would be fine as he is, but don't lose the insanity! Actually over all I enjoy playing my character as being a trickster provides loads of fun. And I would like to personally thank Ed for edging me towards ventriloquism.

So yeah, I'm having fun, but at the same time excitement isn't quite as high.
