My book came in today and it is a thing of beauty. I FaceTimed with a buddy and we geeked out about the art alone for like half an hour.

I’m simply amazed at the level detail that was put into this game. I’ll be posting some content on my YouTube channel very soon.

I’m already lining up some content. The more I learn about this game and the community the more I love it.

Session zero already planned for this week!

So my 3 players roll individually and then I roll once for all the monsters?

Sorry it’s like a square peg in a round hole for me.

I think I understand skills a lot better. Thank you all for the help.

Can we discuss phasing in combat rounds. I’m not getting actions broken up in phases.

Also with initiative in combat. I assume you roll initiative once for combat but the book says “each party rolls”.

Does that mean the players go together at once or do you still break it down by individual?

So would it for example be set up like this? Assuming rolls

Player 1
Orc
Player 2
Orc
Orc
Etc.

Or is it

Players
Orcs

Thank you all for the feedback!

Thank you all for the great responses. I think my issue is that I’m mentally stuck in 5e.

It seems this system is very open ended and easy to use once you can get your head around it.

I have often times felt in 5e the perception skill is used way too much to simply answer the simple question of what the character notices.

Using this system how would you handle a situation where the player wants to track something down. In 5e you would use survival to determine the outcome.

How would y’all do this on ASSH?

I’m just learning this system and had a few quick questions.

Do players start as the base class and then pick a sub class later?
Or do they just start the game as the subclass?
Is there multi classing?

I see the tests of strength and dexterity under attributes but I didn’t see any other mention of skills.

How does intelligence, wisdom and charisma type skills work? Investigation? Persuasion?

Thanks!

The chart that was posted helps a lot but is there an example of combat somewhere? I feel like I need to see it played out to really get it. The phased combat round is interesting but it’s not quite clicking yet.

I just found this game yesterday and I’m excited to try it. My buddy got me hooked reading Appendix N and I’m in love with Clark Ashton Smith, Robert Howard and Lovecraft. I’ve been longing to play an older edition of DnD and this looks just amazing.

I have a YouTube channel for 5e DND but I really want to transition into making content for stuff like this.

I grew up on AD&D but are there any general tips to get started with ASSH?
