(i hope this is the right subforum)

Im making a DND campaign. Its gonna be somewhat short (possibly finishable on a 2-3 day cabin-trip), but ive never really made anything in DND before. Ive only played one campaign, and so im wondering if you guys had some suggestions?

I have some rough ideas about the world and some concepts for cities, but im mostly curious about specific ideas for dungeons and puzzles, or just any other suggestions in general. Some neat ideas you guys have seen, that I could include in some way? Pretty much just any suggestion in general

Thanks!

We're playing 13th Age, numbnuts. The GM can't solidify lore till every character settles on their relationships with the Icons and declares their One Unique Thing.

I'm just trying to do a Jump man. The Jump itself is... thick in it's terminology and I've only been able to get some lore stuff because >>52431177 directed me to a decent lore respiratory which uses plainspeak. The whole Mr. Eaten thing is interesting but playing the browser game for dozens of hours, just in the grinding parts from what I've been led to believe from my searches, doesn't sound like a good time. However the lore is interesting and neat so I want to know more.

I'll shut up about this now, since I'm apparently ticking folks off.

are there any rpgs that get encumbrance & lifting right?

What's your gripe with CR?

>>52439068
Monster level.

How do you mean, OP?

And there's always knuckling down and doing some math to work out the general capabilities of your party and comparing them to monsters to figure out what's suitable. Average attack rolls vs defences, average damage vs HP, the ability to inflict and resist various forms of debilitating effect.

Initially crunching the numbers can be a pain, and you need to update it every level/significant gain in power, but if you're not going to be using or trusting whatever abstract value a system gives you for the threat a monster presents, it's the only way to go about it.

Oh damn.
I think we're onto something.

OK /tg/. I've got a question for you, and it's a doozy: what are some GOOD RPGs? I mean genuinely good, none of that "it's popular, therefore it's good" shit.
