If willing and available, KGM {KillerGM} might be able to assist you with your inquiries about GMing (I recall that she has run WoD games before).

Now about this spider-squirrel...



Thanks I might contact her then once I've started reading WoD material. Right now my questions were more general than specific to WoD material. I'm hoping people on the Charmed board replies to my question about how to deal with the fact TCO always wins. Which if their opposition is supposed to win (as per Charmed Universe) then how do you make a fun game? I don't want to have some story where they are TCO and make them all feel.... not manly. xD

I've never read the books. I didn't even know novels existed for it.

I know monte cooks version has demons but in the other one they are called something different and seem less like Charmed demons.


Who's talking about novels? I am talking about the very basic rules of the game. 

Or, basically, don't do WoD. Or really any WW at all until you know what you're doing.

Well, I'm not going to until I read stuff and learn the rules. It will be awhile before a game is actually in session.

Which makes it even worse. Mage is unusable in its sheer, well, White Wolf-ness.

For example, how do you like the idea of shooting out 10 27 lethal dice Blasts a round and having a 12 in every stat without going anywhere near Paradox? Pathetically easy.

The fact that actual demons do not exist in this world is what makes it difficult


Uh, what? Have you, like, actually read the books?

Monte Cook's version is pretty cool. It's based off of 3.5.

We all agreed to play the dice pool one. They just wanted me to run because I never have before, lol.
