#DnD advice: If you act happy enough while GMing, you can Tom Sawyer your players into believing that it's fun and finally get a turn as a player yourself.

I deeply agree that I want more people from the RPG world working with mainstream publishers.

I don't want to frame it as something people can just decide to to.

Working with a large corporation is always a situation where the artist has very little control over what happens.

I love that we’re talking about interdisciplinary game design! It lets me talk about my secret weapon: theatrical directing!

Stanislavski, Brecht, Peter Brook, and Anne Bogart have some insanely applicable insights to roleplaying game design!

#TTRPGThoughts Even though I *know* I should look at the average/expected roll for damage to set my expectations, my greedy lizard brain immediately looks at its potential maximum, or worse, how much damage the attack could do on a critical hit instead.

BIG NUMBERS ARE BIG.

#DnD advice: If you haven't filled out a Business Model Canvas, how can you tell if your adventuring party is actually a profitable business venture?

Oh man I just looked it up, that looks *lengthy.* Would you be running the entirety of the campaign's 80 year span, or is there a specific part that's speaking to you?

#MondayFunday What's a TTRPG campaign you've been itching to run lately? I've been really excited for a pirate campaign I've been prepping for a while.

#DnD advice: Artifacts of untold power are not the ideal paperweight; most of them will try and get you to go on some quest or another.

#DnD advice: Writing a murder mystery adventure? After they find the body, throw a bunch of random unrelated clues and weird NPCs at your players. Their most convincing guess is what actually happened.

#DnD advice: Don't forget to tell the barbarian a bedtime story during each long rest or they won't fall asleep!

D: that's even worse - how the heck is anyone supposed to intuit that?

Sorry to be the one to mention this but that's probably because pokopia is an NS2 exclusive. 😔

#FollowFriday Gracu ✨🌈 is the artist behind a lot of TBM Games' interior illustrations, such as the Witch and Tamer classes. It's a privilege to see Gracu put my meandering character descriptions into something visible, and I admire her dedication to her craft.

I think this problem has a solution built right in. Who's up for one more job?

Bad DND Advice Keep in touch with your recurring villains! After clearing the dungeon, ask your GM if you can connect with the lich on LinkedIn to update them on developments in your adventuring career. @nat1advice.tbm.games

It won't help you find a new adventuring gig, but for some reason we do this anyhow.

#DnD advice: Fey only fear cold iron, so put your weapons in the refrigerator before adventuring out into the Feywild.

#ThrowbackThursday A quick refresher on some 5e mechanics you can use in map design to make more interesting combat encounters! A lot of this has held up well after 5.24 (aside from my writing style), but even the mechanically irrelevant bits might give you some ideas!

Don't push yourself too hard - a friend of mine once conducted a playtest of his game in a similar state and I wound up driving him to the hospital because it turned out that he was feeling low-energy from being sick to begin with.
