The best gaming advice: Talk to each other like reasonable adults.
Dice fudging and Rule Zero are bullshit.
Dungeon World is a better D&D than D&D.
Ignoring rules is a sign that you're playing the wrong game.
Metagaming is not a four-letter word.
System matters.
“Wubba Wubba!”

Apr 10	revised	At what point did polyhedral dice become part of D&D? Wording
Apr 10	comment	At what point did polyhedral dice become part of D&D? @Jonn_Underwood Kriegsspiel was published and translated into several languages, but not in the tabletop/board game sense, at least not initially. More information at http://www.kriegsspiel.org.uk.

Apr 9	comment	How to motivate players without the promise of gold and XP? Or it might not! If the players buy in and own their heartlessness, then you can work that into their future adventures. Or you could tell them that's not the kind of game you want to run. Talk to the players!

Apr 9	comment	Should I pay attention to the defenses targeted when choosing my powers? @BESW Not necessarily. Maybe he just wants to be a powerhouse with powers that affect, say, only two defenses. That can be viable as well.

Apr 8	comment	Where can I find a non-Lovecraftian medieval religious horror game that will inspire dread in my players? It doesn't sound like you want a one-shot game, otherwise I would suggest Montsegur 1244. You could appropriate its setting, however.

Apr 5	comment	Reducing a monster below CR 1 They're also available as characters: ½ ⅓ ¼ ⅙ ⅛
Apr 5	comment	Reducing a monster below CR 1 You can drop down to 1/3, 1/4, 1/6, and 1/8 CR, but the monster creation rules don't assume monsters that weak. I guess I would just use the fractional CR creatures as a guideline if I were coming up with my own.
