I'd roll real dice if I had the table space. A suitable large dice rolling area tends to fill quickly, even without considering that d4's are second only to Lego's in the field of improvised Caltrops.

I normally use the SRD dicebag, but I think I'll bookmark that WotC one- the field for odd values is nice. I used to use Random.org, but it felt streaky to me if I rolled a lot in rapid succession. That's probably just me being superstitious, though.

I know this is off topic, but what exactly does a d4 look like ?

Pyramid with numbers on. Occasionally a mummy pops out and you need this whole exorcist thing, I dunno, 's fuckin' weird. Ol' Tut here never pays the damn rent, that I'm sure of. Other times this bastard in a Fedora just up and breaks my walls with a giant rock outta nowhere, but that's another story.

Oh yeah, that happens to me sometimes too. Those d4's are crazy.

d1's are the worst though, even streakier than random.org.

So. Roll to be the RNG. Your mind has been blown.

How could a d1 be hard to find? All you need is a ball and a marker. Bam, instant d1.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Roll to dice? The players try to find all of a standard DnD dice set (D4 6 8 10 12 and 20 +Whatever I'm missing) Except they're magical and then they find a specific die, they can choose to roll that for their turn instead of a d6 (Which they start with)?

Roll to be the RNG.

Is that Roll to be Rolled? I'm intrigued.



Ooh that reminds me, I couldn't do it because I can't type that much at the moment and it's too near Christmas now, but a Tolkein's Father Christmas rtd would have been seasonal.

All right, I'm actually truly thinking of doing another game. For real this time.

But, my well of ideas is meh. Here's what I got.

-Dungeon crawl survival type game: Pretty much, going back to the first cool game I played on this forum-the Fortress of Bones. Inspiration! I call it survival, because you actually had to keep yourself fed and hydrated, find a safe place to sleep and deal with wounds in a timely manner.

-Elven Court Intrigue Adventure: Or maybe Dwarven. Inspired by Tales of the Storm Coast, naturally. Obviously more adventure and less backstabbing, I would hope. This IS the RTD forum.

I figure if I get pings of interest from you guys I might be able to start. Also, suggestions are welcome...
