About Bob

I am a veteran GM and player, involved with various RPG's since 1979. I prefer a balanced GMing style with equal parts combat and role-playing. I am retired and spend my free time working on or learning various games. Pathfinder 1E is my game of choice but I also enjoy a lot of other games. I believe in giving players meaningful choices that balance risk and reward, that all player choices shoud have consequences and that the PCs are the central focus of the game.

I am an avid fan of 3PP supplements, and my games feature them heavily.

I love it when a player

Surprises me! Does something that I had no idea was coming.

I think min/maxing...

Kinda ruins the game. I mean, not entirely, but there's a difference between effective characters and over-effective characters. Min-maxing tends to focus on one primary ability (most often combat) to the detriment of all other abilities. These characters become one-dimensional.
