Re: Re: (TFT) RE: D&D 3e



You know, I swore I wasn't going to get involved in this,
but oh well.  However, let me try to steer things back to
TFT at least.

That's the genius of TFT.  It works for "real" role-playing, 
and it works great for a dungeon-bash, too.  I have to say
that while I'm NOT a big fan of...

PL: "Alright, we bash down the door."
DM: "Okay, inside you see a 30x30 room, and um, <roll, roll, 
     roll, flip, flip flip> twelve orcs.  Roll for initiative."

...I and the group I run TFT for do tend to like "dungeony" 
adventures, with maps and 10' squares, but where the 
inhabitants make sense and there's some scope for tactics.  

That's what I really like about TFT--being I suppose an 
AH/SPI wargamer at heart I like hexes and rules that don't 
need to be arbitrarily extended and interpreted by the GM 
on the spot to cover everything.  TFT largely has that.
