Smoldering Wizard's Old-School Gaming Forums

Hello!

I'd be keen to join in (created the account for that reason!). I've not played PbP before and I'm more familiar with SW Complete than WB:FMA, but I'm going through some old threads and reading the WB:FMAG rules to get them set in my head.

If all's cool (despite my n00b status), I grabbed this guy off the generator. If it's possible, could I shift his alignment to Neutral?

Ok looks like we got good news and bad news going on here. While we got three people on the list to dive into the denizens of doom (hmm is that what I am to call it?), aren't you, Jcftao, going on vacation or something? Should I npc you from the beginning?

Let me know I shall bow to the whim of the players on this regard. But with one more, but one more, I think we can get the temple ball crushing through the corridor even with the npc'ing.

When the time comes, I plan on rolling on an app called Dice Ex Machina, below is a sampling of what it looks like. The app rolls that whole list with one tap. Pretty damn sweet.

Nice app! I mostly play solo these days, so something like that would cut down a whole lot of dice rolling.

I just put the three pc's stats into the machine, it literally rolls the whole party and the enemy with one tap. I may now be playing more solo parties. It divides everything into folders, incredible. Only complaint is that it doesn't all fit into one screen.

We can use a magic using type, ya know?

Looks like it's only available on ios. Man, do I regret going android! Guess I'll have to stick to rolz.org for the time being.

I’ve never heard anyone say they regret going android amigo.

My first choice for this adventure was Rolz. I might still use it if I can get the damn butttkns right. Have you any tips, tricks or codes to share?

It was a very short moment of insanity. I don't think I'd even wear a mac in the rain!

I'm a bit of a luddite, so I only tend to use the #xDy commands on Rolz, but I'll be popping it open soon for a quick adventure so I might actually get around to reading the instructions!

Jimbo you want to join my WBFMAG adventure?

Sure. That'd be great! Do you want me to generate a new character or shall I stick with Ray Sun? I'm easy either way.
