25- desirable dice? What?
I don't know I know some people get really into them but I don't think I get especially attached to mine... I'm probably not the target market.
Though I think I still have a d20 ice cube mould, which is certainly a flex and appropriate given how much I drink generally.
#rpgaday24 and #rpgada2024 apparently. Look at us splintering linguistically.
26- uh, time to play catchup.
A superb screen?
Well ideally you would have a screening force of light infantry to cause additional friction and give some warning to the main push of your assault, ideally lightly equipped enough that they could retreat behind your main formation after harassing the enemy's main line.
Look, I don't use a GM screen okay? I just read too much ACOUP https://acoup.blog/
Closest is probably having PBTA sheets in front of me...
#rpgaday24 also #rpgaday2024
27- Marvellous miniature.
I mean anyone will tell you I'm a turbo keen diorama-head and having come up in Warhammer this little monster won me over.
Love a good diorama, and this one has a whole lot of character. Courtesy of Alex Dos Santos, I think @alexdoesmini on the birdsite but not sure if they're over here.
So anyway, dioramas forever.
Don't know how you'd use them in a #ttrpg but you won't change my mind.
28- as a bit of a LoTec myself (a recent reread of Johnny Mnemonic has left me understandably sad) I don't think I'm hugely into gadgets.
But ya know what I only learned was cool about a year ago?
The hexin' Zinefold baby!
I can make so many gaming mini-books now! And you can just run off copies at your local library for like 0.20 dollaridoos! Get your ideas to... well, anyone!
Got the image from these folks, dunno if they're cool or not.

29- awesome app?
In honesty by hours of use we probably use Discord and Twitch, so I'm not especially cool in that manner.
But they do the job, and they've allowed us to run a lot of cool events like Game Dunk when people would have struggled to attend in person.
And I've generally had to use those services through my phone because my computers are usually falling apart.
30- someone I'd like to game with huh?
I've been lucky in having had the chance to game at least occasionally with quite a few of the game designers who have had significant influence on me, as well as a great many regulars across Batmania's club and con circuit.
Would love to get a bit of table time with @genesisoflegend though. Great fan of the games he's created, but he's about as far away from my base of operations as one can get in the range of human habitation...
31- game or gamer that I miss.
Well we don't get to hang out with our old Sydney gang nearly as much as we would like to, but part of that issue was them moving to the UK... and we did get over there for a time, played some ripping games when we did.
Everyone is back in the Downunderverse now, just wildly different parts of it.
Struggled to adapt to the online gaming boom, but hey...coming around with Ars Magica of all things. I'll report back.
