| The only thing I can think of would be 48 hour rounds instead of 24 hour ones. More time to get into the roleplays if ya want to and laxer / less pressure. |
I'm not sure that would help, as some of the days were like 2 simple individual tasks, so 48-hour days would really drag for the more active people.
Other than fixing the stupid mage-hand inspiration bullshit, I think maybe shortening the future sessions into 10-levels or something might be better? I know I started losing steam from a flavor-perspective in the second half of the game (before Rodney fully removed any will to care late in the game).
I'm not sure how feasible it is, but if there was a way to make it slightly less RNG-based, as some decisions were decidedly "better" than others, but would then result in the worst outcome. Could even bring in the dice rollers more? It's been a long time since I've played DnD, so I forget what all you could do in this regard. | | |

I liked the team idea, I just unfortunately joined late and had a team that was busier than the others, so there was very little opportunity to strategize (not that it probably would have mattered much -- RNG).
Maybe next time keep teams, but have fewer teams comprised of more members each. Might help keep some of the other teams feeling like they have a chance later into the campaign. | | |

Tuuluuwaq wasn't feeling well. The sight and the smell of the tavern were conjuring up really bad memories from before and it was about to make him sick.
He mustered up some strength, and entered the tavern. There was joy and merriment all around, with many people raising glasses and toasting the Seven Parties. He walked over to Priggat, tapped his old friend on the shoulder and said "thanks again for the help". The ratfolk turned towards him, smiled, and raised his small glass in response.
He then looked across the room and saw Booberella sitting at a table with a large crowd of men from Brinebourne all gathered around. "She must be telling a pretty interesting tale" he thought to himself, before breaking out in a mild chuckle. He raised his large paw when he saw her look up, and she responded by moving each breast up and down individually. "That's one crazy elf" he thought, as he moved his way towards the back of the tavern, where he spotted a lone quiet table.
He sat down and had a moment to reflect. It had been an interesting and trying journey. One he almost didn't make it out of, if it hadn't been for those two friends of his. He knew that they meant well, no matter what they could or could not do along the way. He would travel with them anywhere.
After swatting away the barkeep for what felt like the third time, he spotted someone from across the tavern. It was Khanarak. He was bellied up to the bar enjoying the local brews.
"Ooof" Tuuluuwaq said, remember the last time those two were in this bar together. That was what started his whole drunken spell. Although, Khanarak was nice enough to walk him back to his tent afterwards. The beast did not need to show Tuuluuwaq that level of friendship, but he had, and Tuuluuwaq felt terrible that he couldn't do more to help him when he'd gone missing.
Just then Khanarak waved over to Tuuluuwaq, motioning for him to come join him for a drink. "Well, one can't hurt, I guess" he said as he began to stand up, completely forgetting the sick sensation he had felt not more than five minutes ago.
"I think I at least owe him that" he thought as he headed off towards the bar... | | |

Anyone interested in a F&E Character Battle, Hunger Games-style?

Ok. I've got all the screenshots saved, and links ready to go. I think I'll post a round or two at a time, then pause, so if people want to comment they can. | | |
