One of the things I love about Alliance (perhaps the best thing) is that I can take my character to multiple chapters and play in them. The Mists make a perfect rationale for the instant travel. I like playing one character at a time, I like building up his reputation and having it traverse...

Not sure how that makes my comments 'less credible' though. But sorry you saw it in a negative way. I attempted to put some levity into my specific situation. I apologize. If this was the case, I wouldn't be bothering with posting here. First thing is that I do love the basics of Alliance...

A few issues with that, although I do agree with the sentiment: 1) Some issues are rules based and that cannot change by joining staff. Sure, after a couple of years you might convince owners and so on to make the change but you don't have to be on staff to do that. 2) Maybe I prefer to play...

I'm sorry but am I the only one seeing the semi-elitist attitude here towards new players? First it was that the game mechanics aren't tailored towards new players being effective in the game. Sure, with proper support from both PC's and plot, this can be a moot point but that is true with...

So how do you promote such a system to a potential new player? "Hey, it's a great system after you put in years of work and thousands of dollars." (Yes, this is mostly sarcasm... mostly.) A system where the balance is skewed away from new players wanting to remain means that growth will be...

Ah, touch'e! As I was the one making the awards. Yeah, it was kinda hard to do it for free for a game that banned me from playing in it. ;) But Mike and I worked something out where he paid for materials and I still donated my time and craft work. But this is now getting into a...

And some, don't. However, it won't ever stop me from going that extra mile, even if I'm left on the side of the road with my thumb out. :)

Although I agree to a point, this stuff he paid for out of his own pocket, never reimbursed. Now, granted it probably didn't cost a lot however he was already paying an event fee. I'm all for giving in to the game, (I've sold sodas as a barkeep for 4 years there without any reimbursement) but...

I tend to play non-combative characters quite often. Oh, they can hit if they have to but mostly they prefer not fighting. However, if you go down that road, do expect to be kept out of the higher up plots as there is usually an upper limit of people allowed on the mod and they'll want to have...

In San Francisco, a PC who was given a title (Sir, then Baron Marcus) took it upon himself to create awards for various PC's to commemorate major conflicts. They went out to anyone who did anything to help, each with different focus on the areas they worked on. He hired me to make various...

If the ePub is free but of a lower quality (as it is right now), then you will get people who still want to buy the hard copy as it is easier to flip through and use (for most people at least). If you could get the rulebook into gaming stores, that would be great, but not sure how realistic...

there are a few different types actually - and it varies on thickness. They add a clay type thickener to the latex. You have your 'clear' latex and this is what you'll find most appliances made out of (the elf ears, scars, etc.) Then there's the mask latex which will dry opaque and it is much...

I've done ornate hammers and torches in the past but never made a youtube tutorial video about it so not sure if I'm the crazy guy you're talking about. If you want to contact me off board with any questions, I can do my best to help you out. I use latex but I can buy it by the gallon from an...

Assuming no other variables are put forth and the ones you have are held fast, then yes, it is better to be a craftsman than a producer. However there are a multitude of variables that can come into play that would change the numbers for producers in any number of ways. Craftsmen get 1 silver...

My character planning sheet is at http://www.larping.net/larping/ARB.xls

SF weekend games take place in the Santa Cruz Mountains at a boyscout camp named Camp Cutter Single day events take place usually in Belgatos Park in San Jose ((You can google both of them)) A character is made simply by following the steps within the rulebook. You should check the San...

Depending upon the size of ear, I can also supply them rather cheaply and probably find someone heading to a game to drop them off for you too. www.larping.net/larping/store - at the bottom

I"m sure you do. And I'm sure for every one person you know, I could go through the US and give you 10,000 that don't. On top of which I could take your friend's named car and ask everyone in California if they've heard of that car and none of them will have (assuming that your friend doesn't...

The thing about 'Ye Mystick Artefacts' as you mentioned is their rarity. There was only one Excalibur, only a half dozen magical swords and 20 magic rings in Tolkien's fables and so on. In Alliance, they're as common place as... well maybe not dirt but not much rarer. Where magic is used just...

Hey all, I'm selling the leaf armor I had made for a dryad character. Cost is $140 (including shipping) and there are pics below for it. The leaves are made out of wax hardened leather with etched veins in them. They come up to the top in the front and you can see in the pic where they...
