Basic Fantasy RPG Forums

Okay, we have a battlemap now, to make things easier.

Now, I know we haven't gotten that far, but how do you all think of me, as a GM? I still consider myself a novice...

Lucky.. well this is my first play by post so I may not be the best person to ask. Its fun but the pacing seems a bit slow, but that might just be the nature of the beast. Also have you considered using the Mapmatic tool here on the site to make your maps? Might be faster than doing them by hand.

Like dymond, this is my first PBP but I am enjoying it immensely so far. The only comment I could make would be to echo dymond in that the pace seems to be a little slow (but that may just be my enthusiasm getting the better of me too)

The problem with mapmatic would be putting the location of all the combatants.

What about maptool ? I didn't try my self.

Actually thats quite easy.. You can type in any Alphanumeric character in any grid, that's all the room numbers are is a number in a grid.

I do use Mapmatic, I just like to sketch it out when I post 'em to give them that old school feel. I'l also look into Maptool, too.

I do understand that it seems a bit slow. I'm sorry. I have to share my computer with my siblings. If I could, I'd post the second that everyone else did.

And I meant my abilities as a GM. Do I seem okay?

Lucky64 for me it's ok. You try to improve things, it's a good point.
I still have a request, can we have dices roll values ? I play this pbb game as a training to play Basic Fantasy, have dices roll will be useful, and entertaining.

No problem. I just kept them out of the way to make things tidier, but if you say so, then sure.

This is easier to track for me - each action/exchange set out by the numbers let me find Keiler's impact - and damage taken - in one pass. Using the final numbers instead of rolls + modifiers keeps it neat - and lets you hide any other modifiers we're not aware of.
