#chainmail — Public Fediverse posts

My OD&D group took a night off and we tested out how using Chainmail as our combat mechanic would work. It was an interesting time - using abstract/mass, trying out Fantastic combat and then seeing an example of Man-to-Man melee in action.

Will we use it going forward? Perhaps! There's some interest in using abstract/mass combat to speed along wandering monster or large group encounters, and possibly exploring the detailed combat as it uses bellcurved 2d6 vs flat 1d20.

Kirby finally has his second eye.

The inlay is almost complete.

One of the concepts in the scenario was "flattening" the scale of combat so that we're throwing lots of dice like Chainmail, and resolving combat using CM armor concepts - but maintaining the concept of hit points from OD&D. It's definitely a mashup, since this scenario has a lot of individuals accompanying troops.

Revisiting my "Rescue of Hommlet" rules with fresh eyes, correcting some things that were unclear. I know I have a lot of work to do with painting the 15mm figures for the scenario, as well as finish painting the 250-odd dungeon tiles and putting them together. I think I also need to print a metric ton of the clips as well!

Happy Rainbow Day!

For this inlay I think that the look of the weave stretched by gravity suits it best.

In order to keep that look when I sew it onto the jacket I made a wire hangar for the weave and pinned it to the jacket so I can let gravity keep the weave where I want it.

Session 5.0 in Castle Amber. The party meets a Unicorn, the Wild Hunt, and some magic Squirrels. I also took a chance on using Chainmail rules with OSE, which worked nicely and really turned the tide with the Wild Hunt. #DND, #OSE, #BX, #chainmail
