Tales from the Border Baronies

Night in Seattle.

I've been brooding quite a bit on metacurrencies recently.

I often see people going on about d100 vs d20 vs 3d6, or the forever wars of THAC0 vs AAC (both are wrong, to-hit matrices are superior to either).

Or: how hard should a stand of ogres hit, and how much should it take to kill?

I often rant about people reinventing square wheels and how it frustrates me to no end.

Ah, fantasy roleplaying games, where we've made the fantastical mundane.

I've been trying to get my own shitbrew heartbreaker out there for a while.

My friend ran Scum and Villainy for some friends and I for about six months now, and I haven't been enjoying myself as much as I thought I would've when he posted the blurb.

I recently had an online scuffle with a few people regarding domain play and wargames, and its role in DnD.

In a recent twitter thread I was ranting about a 5e Curse of Strahd game I was briefly part of.
