Topic of Discussion

How does mundane and exceptional/magic gear impact your game?

  • Social status
  • Maintenance of gear
  • Do you track *all* the gear you carry?
  • Do you “mark off” every arrow or other item you use?
  • How often does your mundane gear ever come into play?
  • Less magic in the horde

Die Roll – 2-4 miscellaneous points of gaming or geekery we want to share with you.
