I. Dear Reader Over on Rascal, I wrote this big piece (around 3000 words) about the new wave of award-winning RPGs from Italy – games like Household, Fabula Ultima, and the Cowboy Bebop RPG. I pitched this article in my very first meeting on the 30th of September and have basically been reporting it since […]

[wave] I'm putting together a compilation of my GMing tips and table culture recommendations. Anybody who's been around here long enough, is there advice I've given on the subject that stood out to you as worth memorializing?

Q: 2023: a year in moderation

JNat It’s that time of the year again! As we wave goodbye to last year and welcome the new one, we have a tradition of sharing moderation stats for the preceding calendar year. As most of you here might be aware, sites on the Stack Exchange network are moderated somewhat differently to other sites on...

Q: Tsunami spell cast in the air

LeonardoLet's suppose a spellcaster casts the Tsunami spell 100 feet above the ground. The spell description says that it originates at a point in range (sight) and does not say that it needs to be supported. Suppose that a flying creature, able to fly by the fly spell, is caught by the wave. What would...

Q: How does Unleash Psyche interact with amped Produce Flame?

LinusA level 1 Oscillating Wave Psychic uses Unleash Psyche. He then casts an amped Produce Flame as a ranged attack. On a success, how much damage does the target of Produce Flame take? On a critical success, how much persistent fire damage would the target take? How much damage do other creatures o...

@linksassin is it possible that your concern is that it's easier to wave your hands about trying to mimic sign language (and end up with a caricature accidentally) whereas speaking gobbledygook is obviously not the same as a foreign spoken language and would clearly be seen as disrespectful?

Unrelated, but what's up with the wave of downvotes on this question?

So, "the power of dreams" is both our justification and our limiter. You can learn anything connected to dreams, but you can ONLY learn things connected to dreams. What does that look like, narratively? We could wave our hands and say "dreams are everywhere, so anything," but that's not just OP--it's boring.

@NautArch I modded the cube of force feature of Wave to regenerate once every seven days, like horn of valhalla

It's very rare for our groups not to have (at least one) identify handy, which solves that part. Or just hand wave it as part identification/attunement

The problem of sentient weapons: DM needs to role play them sometimes. While I like to RP as the DM, it's part of the fun, it can add to overhead when there are three sentient weapons. (Group has Wave and Blackrazor, and is close to finding whelm).

Rather than making increasingly dangerous monsters, you can equip the occasional monster with the treasure that the party is hunting for. Recently had a battle between the party and a water elemental myrmidon on a huge giant crap wielding Wave (White Plume Mountain) - that was a very hard fight for the party. (I added another monster to the center room since the party is much larger than the notional 4 PC party ... it was the myrmidon)

Just trying to think of a precedent for ruling that pulse wave would do that.

And often I'm not gonna have all of this pre-made; I'm a big fan of the okapi butt style of worldbuilding. But thinking about the ways that complexity and distinctiveness manifest, gives me a lot more kinds of okapi butts to wave at the players.

I’m probably going to bring the ribbon stick and suggest she wave it at us but I’m good at controlling it and the person we dragooned into the sorcerer role doesn’t have the same practice

Could someone wave the "it's better to write your answer in isolation and not phrased as a remark on other answers, as though they might not even exist" friendly advice stick for this answer? rpg.stackexchange.com/questions/180695/…

^Destructive wave is paladin only.
Sep 13, 2021 13:16
@Someone_Evil Yeah, I know destructive wave is more of a paladin class feature that they dont get till 13th.
Sep 13, 2021 13:13
destructive wave is also stupid good.

But, it is equally as important to look at all of the written pieces or say the weight of coins that changed after the first plague wave hit Constantinople.

I probably wouldn't write strictly Aeon Wave style playbooks now, but it was my gateway into reconsidering the idea of playbooks.
Aug 25, 2021 01:59
Aeon Wave is built on Fate Core.
Aug 25, 2021 01:56
Aeon Wave has the Six Dwarves of Cyberpunk: Shooty, Tricky, Snipey, Hacky, Sneaky, and Tinker.

I think the first time I ran into playbooks I clicked with at all, it was Aeon Wave (the adventure module is $3 but the character sheets are free).
