oh I'm not good at picking favorites lol it really depends on the mood/what I'm looking for. For example, if I need some "rough n tough" survival mechanics, Mausritter is absolutely fantastic. If I want a good, solid, fantasy system that won't get bogged down in rules, it's EZD6 all the way. If I want something super flexible and easy, it's Tricube 100%. And I think that's the beautiful thing about TTRPGs. Every time you play, you're still roleplaying an adventure. That part is the same. But then you pick the tools/ruleset that best supports the adventure you're currently on. As for Tricube Tactics, yes, it is 100% on my list and I can't wait to get to it. I wish I could have done it day 1, but we already had some other things scheduled (plus all the holidays). Me and Avenue Studios are going to run a Tricube Tales game first so they get familiar with it, then we'll do a Tactics game, and that's when I'll work on my review. I always try to play the games first so I can see how they actually work/play out. I love Zadmar's work. I know it's gonna be good.

@ valid point! I prefer heroic settings either fantasy or sci fi but I’m in my 30s and I’m a parent- I ain’t got time to learn all these systems I’d rather use one I can do for solo and group play and adapt it to whatever setting I want ya know?

@@vincentesposito4843 100%. We're in the same age bracket, but instead of kids I'm just hardheaded and struggle to learn new systems.

I think Rocket Raccoon has just a LITTLE bit more self-preservation.

a small glance into the squirrel 🧠

man I'm such an idiot sometimes. I really should have put the link for NUTS in the description. Honestly, I should do that in every video I guess. It's free and just chilling in my google drive. There's a link in the description now, but I'll put it here too to make your life easier: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ybyGnNaTceJMzP-5LZ-fuXNkF8xSL8Rx?usp=drive_link (I don't have anything for the setting though. It's just been a running joke that technically was supposed to be a fantasy setting but I decided to go future/cyberpunk for the video)

@@asquirrelplays Still just a cool/fun idea to have a Helldiver/Airborne group of elite squirrel troops XD I'll give it a look, thank you. The humble d12 needs more recognition in my opinion o7

@@D3vious113 it absolutely does. D12s are the best

This one seems to be doing better than the last video so I guess it all worked out!

well ... you're not wrong lol

I'mma do my best!

I did it just for you, man!

@ I’m so excited!!!

Sometimes KZbin has a pre-generated response for comments, and I just want you to know one of the suggestions was "You are a person of exquisite taste" and I'm inclined to agree with it.

There are dozens of us!

Directly into my paypal, and no.

One for Tales from Elsewhere would also be fun. You could put hats on all the tokens.

@@asquirrelplays Yeah it would! That's some impressive animating and editing my friend, such good stuff! 🤠

shameless self-promotion, or fun video? YOU DECIDE!

@@asquirrelplays I want both!

I'm gonna have to get a beefier computer if I want to do more of these. It was struggling the entire time.

NUTS also stands for Never Underestimate The Squirrel.

@@asquirrelplays NUTS lore?!

A campaign in 2 hours? You getting one shots and campaigns mixed up?

I so wish that's how the real-life calendar actually worked instead of this 30 days, 31 days, 28 days, thing we got going on.

@asquirrelplays I feel you. It's too confusing.😥

Enjoy! The karma system does work really good though if you can actually remember to use it (unlike me)

In real life I'm very "whatever" about the holidays, meaning I could just ignore them and keep moving. But I'll admit, they are fun for one shots.

I always called that Hallows-eve which is quickly followed up by the day of "Thanks and Harvests". Then when the nights grow long and the days short, the people gather in the center of town around a big bonfire(s) and celebrate the "Longest Night" signaling the beginning of the days lengthening again and the halfway point of winter.

​@@asquirrelplaysusing the humblewoood book, my group and I did a Thanksgiving setting with turkey and fox people coming together to stop a coven of witches from stealing their younglings

Did we? Probably. We also talked about playing as food characters. Lot of strange things happen at the planar crossroads.

@asquirrelplays It may have been just before your time, so dont feel bad if you dont remember the conversation. 😜 And... yeah. The Inn has a lot wierd things go on.😝 ~ Adam

😈

*SLAP*

They could probably work for a post-apocalyptic setting too, which may or not also be low-tech depending on how you go about it. But I get what you mean

@@asquirrelplays also in a post apocalypse something for the day there's no more x's on the old calanders, or for day lights saving which without context is when humanity played god and tried to create an extra hour.

Think Dec 1st has that one already

I've only heard Risus mentioned by one other person before, and I forget which video it was. Had never heard of it before that point, but it does look pretty darn neat. Don't know anything about Goblin Punch though, so I'll have to look into that. Also - your mom totally has a secret about the cookies she's not telling you!

I figured you'd appreciate the music choices on this one

I love it when folks figure out how to boil something complex down into something really simple. It hits the spot

That's what I keep hearing. I caught it on sale a while back and need to give it a go.

I refuse to heart this comment but I will pin it ... for now

💔

I was about to say that's exactly what we'll be doing in a week or so but that's just the setting we're using. Forgot we'll be using NUTS!

NUTS and Grimwood - Let's goooo🎉

Totally uses a human mech suit it's pretty cool😂

@ cool!

It's a secret
