Most PCs don't have timepieces on them. Rather than keeping strict track of every moment, I just make a mental note of any action that takes a turn as being 10 minutes; also, every argument about where to go, or any other time-wasting activity the players think up, is at least another turn. When th...

Yeah. I interpret turn as an abstract measurement of time equal to roughly 10 minutes, that also saves us from typing out X*10 minutes every time. I usually don't worry about things down to the minute. Player A says they want to search one wall, Player B wants to search a different wall, then they ...

Thanks for the reply!

Ok, i know this has been probably asked a thousand times here but this will be question number thousand and one. Are there any modules/adventures/one-shots i can play solitaire? I'm not looking for anything intricate, or even a story at all. Just want some old-school monster bashing dungeon delve. M...
