So, a DDoS attack on the server hindered me from posting my article for Day 14. So let’s do Day 14 & 15 together:
Day 14: Favorite RPG Accessory
I really like cards, dice, erasable maps and other stuff like this. For
instance, I backed the Dungeon Architect
Cards
and Short Order
Heroes.
But my favorite accessory is the combination of the All Rolled
Up with my Noteboard. The ARU is a bag
which holds all your gaming items (maybe except your books, depending on
how big they are): dice, pencils, etc.
The Noteboard is a foldable dry erase flip map which makes it perfect as
an impromptu map tool. Here’s my setup:
And here’s a promo picture of the Noteboard from their website:
PS: German customers can buy at Sphärenmeisters
Spiele.
Day 15: Longest campaign played
That’s probably Warhammer 40K Dark Heresy which took us a bit more than 1 year. I’m glad that we stopped, though. The Game Master is very good, but I neither like the outmoded system (we played the 1st edition) neither the setting. Playing henchmen of some inquisitor and quenching the blasphemy was not my thing. I didn’t like the Gothic type religious fanatism inherent in the game premise.
Day 16: Longest game session played
Uh, I think I once played 8 or 9 hours, but we ordered pizza in between. It was an Oriental Adventures campaign with D&D 3.5 in Rokugan.
