My work is somehow promoting sport over lunch break (well there is always an Ass hole setting a meeting at 13) but it's lunch break, not work time. However, during that time we build connections with other employees, talk about work, so basically free cross department team building for the company

It's the amount that get crazy, my work has some goodies/benefit for people who exercises, but it's like a free T shirt once in a while, a charity event where they give 1€ per kilometer to charity, and negotiated discount for some activities. But a 30% or even more bonus?

I know what to ask to HR

Further, he described Hamas as having its own separate offices, ambulances, and equipment with different colors and signs.

Does it means that a foreign army should have known the difference between civilian and military ambulances ?

International politic has been working that way for centuries. While people are suffering or even dying, some people in nice armchair talk about what's going to happen.

And without sounding like A conspiracy nut, I wonder how much Putin was involved in the things heating up in Palestine and the red-sea. When Russian spies do antisemtic graffiti to increase tension in Western Europe Sauce I would be surprised if they didn't chat with Iran and even the Hamas and Houthis rebels

 

Hi Folks, I took itch Games for Gaza bundle. Among the games in the bundle, I've seen 2 mecha games, Apocalypse frame and Beam saber, I believe the first one is a PTBA and the second a FITD, I have no opinon on these "system family", it's vague enough that it can lead to a good or bad game.

I've been considering running a mecha game, for a while. Last time I played a mecha campaign it was a Mekton Z (at the time when code geass was the popular anime). I've even downloaded the free version of lancer, but only had a quick look (and the fact that atribute have weird 2-3 letter name like LL gave me the impression it's a complicated game). Now, I have a few games on my "pdf library" and need to choose one to read in details. These last years I focused mostly on one-shot/mini campaign (10-20 sessions once every 2 weeks)

I am not really sure which direction to take. I am too old to spend a whole session on a fight, and traditionally, I am more a Mystery/investigation GM. Mecha wise, I like how Macross feature the duality between artists and fighter offering two ambiances in one, while I love how Gundam isn't just good versus evil (and then I really enjoyed Geass, but it's not really a mecha anime). RPG wise, on the sci-fi games I GMed a lot of fading suns, and some Eclipse phase (the example of a game with a great setting but a bad system)

i haven't checked in details the setting of the 3 games from my thread, but it seems they're semi setting agnostic. I might re-use some element from Eclipse phase and focus on the solar system rather than a whole galaxy.

Any opinion on these system/settings and which one I should choose (beside reading 3 times a 300 pages manual to decide ?)

 

Following the everlasting complaint on the rpg reddit about player being entitled and GM struggling between player not doing anything and players leaving without notice. I am curious about how do you select your player, and what are your trick/tips to identify the problematic ones before problems occurs
