@Waltimedes Baby steps? Wuxia two-shot with just two players could be a hell of a lot of fun for a fraction of the anxiety, and then if the thing has momentum....

Today marks ten years since this infographic back page about the Kowloon Walled City was published by South China Morning Post. I explained in a few lectures the ins and outs of this project, and now I will do it here. Long 🧵

@aic_armor How does it work? Anyone have pics of it unfolded?

Inside the Barbados National Armoury, near Bridgetown - home to an incredibly rare Oliver Cromwell era English naval cannon from 1652, stamped with the Commonwealth flag

@PSHistory @MadameGilflurt @HistoryHit This was a great listen - thanks to @k8_lister for hosting and to @zebrowskaka for creating the video that played on loop in my head while I listened: youtu.be/f0fqnPFeVCM

@RPDeshaies This looks great - I'm intrigued by the card mechanic. Happily purchased!

This art is stunning when used as an article spotlight image, isn't?

@mechamelissa Ugh, that sucks. Usually I start with the smallest and easiest tasks, knock out as many as I can to trick myself as if I'm feeling like I'm on a roll, and then use that for momentum to get the bigger (first) and then harder (last) stuff done.

@BaytAlFann @Wayard_Dragon "Murder is definitely very divisive, with some people committing it repeatedly and others very opposed to it." Why bother responding if you're just going to say meaningless equivocation like this?
English
@Wayard_Dragon Thank you - we hear you and totally understand, it’s really interesting to get your perspective - Ai generated art is definitely very decisive with some artists, creators and designers adopting it in their practice and some very frustrated by it
English
i love you guys but this isn't right. Ai art is trained on and made of stolen art made by real creators. whatever the result, it cannot and does not justify the means

Ai-generated art has created many surreal & imaginative conceptualizations, pushing the boundaries between real & artificial. Architects & designers have traded their drawing boards to re-imagine Islamic architecture for the future A thread on Ai-generated Islamic architecture…

@theNatalieAsh @GoblinMixtape I dunno about the "mere" thing. I see my players as guests and myself as the host. Their needs are more important than mine in that formulation.
English
@GoblinMixtape Yeah. I think a lot of the oral tradition of D&D has inculturated the idea of the DM/GM as most definitely NOT a mere "player". It's a bullshit attitude, but I think it is a longstanding burden and holdover from that mentality. 🤷🏻♀️ Just another way indies do it better
English
@GoblinMixtape Interesting. If we said, "I'm hosting dinner for 6", would we include our self in that 6? I suppose it could go either way.
English
@Scarvis @GoblinMixtape I'm with you on this. 3 is an incredible sweet spot, but I've found that inviting 4-5 is the only way to guarantee 3 on any given night.
English
@TotherChris Well, the former is in part a fetishization of the other: and fetishes leave stuff out. Hence the gap between most peoples' personal fantasies and the systemic realities that living in a world where those fantasies were realized.

The vast, vast majority of YouTube and Social Media opinions on firearms are commercial, single user targeted, consumer focussed.
Small Arms in a Military context are of a fleet, Armourers, depots, AR equipped Units of Manoeuvre.
Avoid thinking individual.
Think aggregate.

@yourewrongabout @nikostratis Y'all know that Manowar was a band, right?

@gonzohistory Beat to Quarters or Duty and Honor for that Hornblower/Sharpe vibe.

Indie TTRPG connoisseurs! Please recommend an English-language historical game -- any period is fine, but not historical fantasy or similar -- that you think is well-suited to one-shots. I would like to run one for some (adult) students.

Fun little procedural hexcrawl for a "find place X somewhere in region Y" season: I generated a stack of ~40 tiles, and then they party took turns (as HP allowed) rolling to be the guide. The better the roll, the more player control. Last tile in the pile was the destination.
