can dwarves see in the dark, in DF?

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 235):

Dwarves have Night vision 5

i see

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 237):

No, I see...you are in the dark!

i'm more than man, so i have a few tricks up my sleeve.

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 239):

Out with the missus back tomorrow

And I see as well in the night as you, Hograth.

Did anyone else here back the DF RPG Kickstarter at the PDF level?  Just curious who else has the new rules now.

As Gorgath is just milling about, scaring the newbies, he'll oblige.

Besides, I think he can carry the tub by himself.

Thanks Gorgoth.  It seems Ulo has forgotten her new friend even exists in her excitement over seeing old friendly face.

I just got my copy of DFRPG Magic Items.

It has Resist Fire ($3,000/lb) and Resist Acid ($1,000/lb) as armor/item enchantments.

Triple cots to resist Essential Acid (Alkahest).

Just got mine as well. Will be putting into use.

DF as in GURPS dungeon fantasy?

Can you guys link?

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 247):

They haven't put them up for sale yet. We were in the Kickstarter. Sadly, I  did not go all in on the hardback plus pdfs so I am only getting stretch pdfs. Waiting on shipment before implementation

May be catching up later, movie and bbq with the missus, last night was the Whitney, and walkabout.

Ditto.


I'm mildly annoyed at the change to Slamming... but if it takes into account SM, then Jednesa will still be Slam optimized.

I'm working out how I'm going to change my own DF campaign (in addition to a location change).

So an important question for you.  How are you going to deal with non-standard races?  Dark Ones and Fauns for example.

I'm probably going to allow some of the existing characters to move to the new game, but not all.   And I won't be allowing new PCs to use those races (no more Celestials or Air-Infused in my game!)


From a quick once-over, Slams look to be about the same and take SM into consideration.  I haven't done a side-by-side though.

In reply to Dareos Madrigar (msg # 251):

Which game is yours, Dareos?

In reply to Christine Bjorn (msg # 252):

I've been running a serialized tabletop DF game since 2011 at local (Phoenix, AZ) events and conventions.  I'm actually going to StrategiCon in L.A. the first weekend of September and I'm running it twice there.

I track the episodes in a Facebook group.  I've run 81 sessions thus far.  Was hoping to hit 100 before retooling for the new ruleset and setting, but that's not going to happen.

In reply to Dareos Madrigar (msg # 253):

Ahh, sounds cool, but from Aus I wont be checking them out any time soon. I am not on Facebook either...

Slam in Basic (and thus regular DF) is (HP x Move)/100=dice of damge.  Size only comes into it as a factor of "higher SM means more HP".

From what I've heard the new DFRPG Slam rules are just a chart look up, and that chart is the Speed/Range chart.

When are the copies of DF being sent out to backers?

I'm curious to see some of the artwork.

In reply to Walter Goldman (msg # 256):

PDFs have been sent to the backers who added PDFs.

The print copies probably won't be for another month at least (but I don't have any actual inside knowledge).  They're due to hit retail in early October, so backers should have them before that.

I vaguelly recall we were originally supposed to get them in August (in time for Gencon) but then they got held back at least once.

I just checked the thread, looks like boxes are shipping in October.

Oh... I'll have to check for pdfs!
