We had a last minute dropout for my regular D&D crew and they decided to play this as our backup game. We had a total blast and when we finished the adventure they wanted to keep going so I grabbed the base game and we played Yacht Shock and a randomly rolled one where a rampaging elder god attacked the boardwalk.
I did have some questions though. How do you do combat? The game seems to say that enemies get turns in combat but they don't have statblocks. I ran it that when players chose to attack they'd remove effort tokens on successes and they'd lose grit on failures. I didn't roll for enemy actions.
Also recovering luck, the adventures seemed to naturally have a ramping up effect. So by the time they lost luck the stakes were higher and it didn't seem prudent to make checks more difficult and risk losing grit to maybe recover luck. How do you handle luck? Is it more of a back and forth? A depleting/limited resource?
No problem Michael, looking like it'll be a blast to play!
I was assuming that was the case with Full Moon Monster Theatre, just "last moon" instead of "last full moon" was a bit unclear. I think saying last month also helps get the idea across due to that being the rough timeframe between full moons.
Background - first and second sentences - intentionally using marajuna instead of marijuana?
Important Figures
-Rian Dyer - last word pendent should be pendant
-Nyarlathotep’s Liegemen - says KHPL instead of KHPA
Scene 3 - dramatic question 2 - chase down the dealers
- “The babetacular man and women…”, it's otherwise described as just one woman
-Chad Blaze & Brooke Green - says they won on “last moon's” episode. Should that be “last month’s”?
-check out the tvs - “It came From Beneath the Sea!”, came should be capitalized too, also I don't think that movie ends with an exclamation point
Scene four description - pendent should be pendant
Scene 5 - entry 3 - are they trying to convince the couple they are one of the creatures? Or should they be trying to convince them that they're not a creature?
Scene six - bullet 3 - barricade the door - intentionally no roll required for this one?
