The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers

Christmas Eve from JB's Twitter (no news, just fun)

Oh, I only got to play a single campaign. Is WoD hard to learn?

peregrine:
It's fairly straight forward.  You roll one dice per dot you have in both stat and skill, and count how many successes you get (which is to say, rolls over a certain target number).  Then it depends on what other random things are going on, but that's the base mechanic.

Also, pagan anti-authoritarianism good, status quo bad.

123Chikadee:
Oh nice, I'll think I'll check it out, if I ever have a group of friends who are interested. When I was in that campaign, I was the only inexperienced player and it showed. We had a pretty good GM, so it was a pretty fun time.
LOL, now that works for me. :)

Silentbrick:
Unfortunately, Vampires got screwed by being the first game.    Everything that came after was just more and more powerful.   My favorite to play was Mortal+ sorcerers.  Combine Hellfire and Enchanting and you get mages begging you to make them equipment.  Especially after demonstrating Strength enhancing enchantments combined with a Hellblade.  When the Mortal+ guy takes out a Hit Mark, the mages take notice.

But you had to be prepared for it to work well, just like wizards in Dresdenverse.  You really weren't good at doing stuff on the fly.

123Chikadee:
Huh. So did the vampires get powerful as well, or what? That sounds like an interesting game.
Neat. I know there's a Dresden Files game; I read a recap/review of it, but some of the mechanics seemed confusing.
