Lairs & Encounters from the Adventurer Conqueror King System (ACKS) is a great reference, not just for ACKS but any OD&D, AD&D, D&D based RPGS. IMHO, it can even be adapted to any Fantasy RPG with a bit of effort. It has 165 ready-to-play monstrous lairs, 36 lair maps, 30 new monsters, new subsystems for sandbox play, additional mechanics for monsters, a complete system for taming and training ...

    Interesting to hear some of your thoughts on solo play styles and future possibilities for play on the channel. I tend to personally favor a mental "role switching" method for my solo games effectively playing both sides in a manner similar to your description. I have tried a few of the more tailored approaches, but have found it more enjoyable for me to just play both sides. Watching your P&P vids has been a learning experience for me that I am enjoying. My P&P game box has sat on a shelf for some time with only infrequent booklet readings on my part. My last attempt at play (as I recall) was in the '80s. Your videos show there is a good game here and also nicely demonstrates many of the system mechanics for a close observer to learn from. Time is the very real limiting factor for too much in life. Cheers!

      @norwolf01 3 месяца назад

      Generally, I have the players go with what they roll unless the characteristics make both a terrible warrior and a terrible magic user. In that case I will make a judgement call and have them reroll a 1 or 2 characteristics in the hopes they get end up with something reasonable, reroll the entire character, or some even choose to play the character regardless of their rolls. For this video, I fudged some rolls to ensure a decent fighter came out in the end.

    Got P&P back in the mid 80's. We played it now and then, kind of round robin with other games (DnD, Warhammer Fantasy, RuneQuest, Roll Master, among others). In college, in 1989, started a group playing P&P again. It became my go-to game, and I really haven't played anything else since. Although i have added and changed some rules along the way.... I love this game! Love the creatures, the magic system, and the treasure system. It's just an all-around fun experience.

      With the actual group we have been playing since 5 years ago, although i have been playing since 1985. I do not use many house rules, for example, in the character creatiom i allow them to make to dice throws for each characteristic, and choose the higher. Also i left them select what they want to be (wizard for example) without throwing to see if the are accepted in the academy. Also i allow them, with expertise points to use them to learn spells using the same rules as learning weapons etc. When using magic, during play we use energy level to lunch spells, as if it is native magic user.

      @norwolf01 5 месяцев назад

      Yes, the cost to learn/purchase spells is based on the BMC. In the version 2 rules it is Table 10.5, pg. 103 or Book 2, Section 7.3, pg. 14 in the original rules. When I'm creating a new character I assume they are being instructed so the cost to learn is halved. If you are referring to paying another mage for a spell that your character wants to learn in game, that is left to the referee's discretion.

It just seemed like a big epic game story. I want to make bigger standees or 3d figures for each of the main characters. I want to do something with the chits ,maybe recreate them into larger size. I bought a "Hero" album game as it was pretty cheap but in really nice condition. Idk why i got it exactly, lol. I just liked it, i guess i saw potential ideas of making a version of it with bigger playing boards and upsizing everything and adding some different features. Anyway, i want to get time to build a bunch of different vintage games, like Wreck of the Pandora .
