>Americans doing communism

Better make it starry-eyed perfect idealistic communism. Because goddamn, if any nation on this here planet would make communism work, it'd be the U of S of A, hell yeah!

>>53125253
If the Tzars are never overthrown, communism never flourishes. The very concept of communism, at least as you know it, doesn't exist. Another philosopher besides Marx may write something similar, but in general the hamfisted stalinist communism you're trying to describe never happens.

ALSO, how the fuck does Russia colonize north America? Do they cross the Pacific and land in California?

Never DMed. Even if I had, I have no campaign planned and I wouldn't even know which game to pick.

The answer to the question, as asked, is "Almost certainly yes."

Was there anything else?

>>53124212
In Rise of the Runelords, when facing Aldern Foxglove.
The GM used the cavern and the ring of climbing the ghast had in a very clever way. The motherfucker moved around like a damn xenomorph.

>What was the most memorable combat you've had?
I once made an aberrant aegis gestalted with fiendbound marauder warder. The result was a fleshy monstrosity with grapples so strong it could pull down anything that didn't have Freedom of movement that was even remotely CR appropriate.

My GM still asks me whenever a game starts how powerful my character is, using the grappler in question as the upper limit of broken.

What do you guys think about Serpents skull game?

51 hours logged makes me wary of a potential bamboozle.

I've had some spicy plays copying something with Dack's Duplicate, then dropping Phantasmal Image/Clone/Vasuvan Shpeshifter/Sakashima on Dack's Duplicate.

I am actually building him right now, despite buying

Bullets ain't hard to make even with the lack of more modern tools so the problem you should use is everyone can get their hands on cheap ass bullets but that shit has a chance of back firing on the user, destroying the gun or simply misfiring.

There should be three kinds cheap ass bullets, large caliber (Rifle like rounds), medium caliber (larger pistol rounds), and small caliber (smaller pistol/.22lrmagwhatever/pellets rounds)

>How many different kinds of bullets is the right amount?
thats a complicated question.

so. for a "bullet rich" environment you'd have just 4; Shotgun, rifle, combat rifle, and pistol/sub-gun
maybe one more for launcher-grenades.

beyond that you might add subgroups so.

Rifle(heavy, medium, light, anti-material)
Combat rifle(heavy, light)
Shotgun Rounds(there are a lot of cool things you can load into a shotgun round so specialist rounds might be individually counted)
pistols and sub-machine guns tend to use the same rounds, (light and heavy) rounds

after that you have to start just keeping track by caliber.

Paladin is light blue, barbarian is dark blue.

Unless you're taking into account burst potential, where fighter has action surge and paladin has smites.
Barbarian is above fighter for the first 10 levels where they have almost the same as fighter except rage and reckless attack. But these were rough calculations, I probably watered down the reckless attack to represent you're not going to use it all the time if you don't want to die. Can't remember.

Has anyone made much use of 5e's madness mechanics?

Not OP, but pre. Any system.

so I was the disappointment here, but basically there was this one boss that was built up to be an absolute monster throughout the arc. Brought an entire city to its knees by just fucking around.

I fucked up the boss fight, underestimated the PC's. They pinned him and force fed him acid. It is to this day the worst boss fight I have ever run, or even been involved in

Hey pal, heard you was lookin' to join up wit one a them crews runnin' 'round dees streets. Yer a tough-lookin' dude, so you'd proably be able ta just waltz right in wherever you please. But listen, buddy. Time's are changing. Thing's ain't gonna be all hunky dorey like they are now, oh no. Somethin' big is comin' real soon.

You ever look up into the sky and just wonder... 'when's he coming?' When's he gonna get here? You know who I'm talking about. The head honcho. The Big Man Upstairs.

Emperor? Yeah sure, something like that. I'm not talking about no two-armed little dweeb, takin' his ten-thousand year dump on his golden can. Nah, forget him, pal, he ain't comin back.

I'm talkin' about ol Four-arms. The big boss. He's on his way you know. Gotta get ready. Shit's about about to hit the fan. I know what side I wanna be on.

Tell you what, me and the boys from the Mining guild are gonna be at the saloon tonight. You should come by for a drink. I'll fill you in on what we got in store, for when da boss get's here.

Not interested? Well alright pal. Keep an extra eye open, and an extra hand on that pistol. Things are gonna get worse before they get better. See ya around.
