    Reach Adventure 7: The Last Train Out of Rakken-Goll - Ebook & Pre-Order

    Very solid. My only takeaway issue on first read through is that early on (Page 11) the estate staff describes Rrongva as a Vargr, but when you get to the character profiles at the back she has become a human.

    Boarding shield's armour bonus

    I personally never ruled that you can keep the armour bonus and still fire. Getting your gun or eyes, or whatever out there to line up and take a shot is still giving your enemy the opportunity to hit you at that point, a hard shot (The -2) but with no shield between you. Combat is a fluid and...

    Your thoughts on a query?

    Everyone here has answered you in their typically fair and actually informative way. You should listen to them. Though your query actually asked if it was cool to murder all the PC's -between- sessions...no. Never. Do not murder players between sessions. Turning up to a session and then going...

    How do you rate my strictly by the rules Drinax

    Yeah. No. I mean, I went nuts with my players in Drinax, I really just let them get in heavy. Drinax at the start of the campaign has Asim, and that's it. I'm not sure they spell out the "Starguard" line-up explicitly, but it's poor. Very poor. My Drinax had a Scout/Courier, a battered old Free...

    How to stop luck ruining the game

    I mean, it's not censorship. This is a private companies forum, to discuss their games. They can do whatever they want. Only Americans with Freedom Boners give two giant craps about everyone getting to have their say no matter how useless a person they are. I don't think we should ban him...

    No. It hasn't.

    What rank would the leader hold

    It's also a theme that very occasionally someone (MJD in this case, and several others) gives a good, succinct answer to said rambling question. But suddenly, "NOPE! That info I gave was wrong, here's even more garbage to muddy the waters." As you have been told several times (MJD again) play a...

    What remains powered on a ship after a powerplant failure?

    Side note: As anyone who has ever served aboard a modern warship can tell you, power is life. We had emergency cabling and converters made up to bridge power across damaged sections, patch in emergency generators or unfamiliar shore power configurations. All the engineering staff were drilled...

    Pirates of Drinax - GMs thread

    Yeah. My players made the "moral" choice and jammed the guy in a low berth. Then they decided this was great....they now have a room full of assorted scientists, pirates, imperial officials, and just people that have crossed them, that they refer to as "The Archives" hidden in an old bunker on...

    Print and ebook combo?

    I don't know if they do it on everything. But all the physical books I've purchased through the Mongoose store, I've emailed Matt at msprange@mongoosepublishing.com and received a DriveThru link for the PDF as well.

    Drinax: The Game of Sun and Shadow, Naval Character Creation

    I tweaked it somewhat, and used the Naval character creation rules from the Naval campaign guide in the Element Cruiser box set (which I'm not sure is out for general consumption past the kickstarter backers yet?) then had them create a command crew for an Imperial ship, flashed back and ran a...

    Building the Alliance in Pirates of Drinax

    Not the person you directed it at, but I used the same lead. I actually had it turn out to be a small craft from the Deepnight Endeavour in Great Rift, I figured it would be disturbing enough to have the Pournese try and make someone else deal with it, and didn't require me to jam in extra...

    The futility of Pirates of Drinax?

    Yep, my players had their own way across the Reach, feeling untouchable in their nigh-invisible Harrier, in random backwoods systems. Then I had them fall into the events from Borderland Run, which ends at Tyokh. I think they're well aware of the reason they can't just start "taking Aslan...

    [Pirates of Drinax] Drinaxi military at the start of the campaign

    The Life Events for generating a denizen of the floating palace in book two does have one roll where you can inherit a Star Guard commission (then sell it on if you choose) so I reckon it's a very fair view that the Hawk Warriors do something similar.
