I have an idea for a get-rich-quick scheme: using the Bessemer process to create massive amounts of high-quality steel. However, I'm sure my #DM has not given a single thought to this (because I know her) so I'm worried that this might give God fun #worldbuilding ideas to fuck with our party. How do I tell my group my plan, without having the industrialized slave company I know is on the other side of the map spontaneously develop a similar process?
I don’t necessarily think those things follow. You can’t build CRIPSR in game because half elves have a human and an elf parent, because half elves imply inheritability which implies DNA.
The rules are the rules. So you might assume oxygen exists because your character needs to breathe, and you might assume metallurgy exists because the rules say you can mine, and forge.
But you can’t just say “with this facet on industryy characters downtime will be more productive than the book says”. If the book says you can mine 10gp worth of ore a day, or turn 10gp of ore into twenty a day… Then that’s what the rules say.
Obviously none of this would survive rigorous scientific method as dnd is not a science simulator. Once upon a time I wanted to use Minecraft as a science simulator… Alas…
As a DM: Trying to sneak such an idea by me and trying to exploit the world with knowledge that doesn’t fit are two surefire ways for you to get that idea blocked completely with no chance to ever use it again.
If you want to introduce that technology to the world, talk to the DM, tell her that you would hate for that idea to be used by the enemy company and work out a way that makes it fun, but not completely game breaking for this to appear.
Seriously, how come people still don’t get the number one rule of playing a COOPERATIVE game?
@dnd Hey everyone. I recently went to a miniature store to pick up some more premium paints for my miniatures I'm 3D printing for DnD. While I was there I saw a really nice paint cup for brushes. I knew I could get a model offline so I didn't buy it and instead opted to print one. I found a really nice one, but it lacked that little extra something. So I modified the original design and added the DnD logo. I think it turned out really nice.
What do you guys think?
@dnd Last night we ran part two of a campaign I'm running and while some pieces are still unpainted I'm overall very happy with how my abandoned temple looks. There were some secret passages but at this point they were hidden so not displayed here.
@dnd running the Dragon of Ice Spire peak, when my group came upon the logging camp. I printed the models in my 3d printer, paint them, and try like hell to have a functional set every other week for our game.
