As someone who purchased many games through VFM, what are some things to look for to determine counterfeit games?

I'd like to identify what, if any, games that I purchased that may be counterfeit so I can ensure I don't sell them to someone else down the road. I would rather throw a counterfeit game away than sell it, if I decide I'm not going to play it anymore.

It is difficult to tell a counterfeit game from the outside. Typically lower quality game materials and boards. If you have a question about a particular game, you have to research the forum threads for that game mostly.

I have already messaged all the buyers of this particular seller, and am awaiting any responses. So if you did not get a geekmail, then your purchases were not from that seller.

I suppose anyone who's ever played a Tolkien-derived elf would have to answer yes to the first question.


That's not 'insomnia' though. They make up for their lack of sleep in another fashion, and that is something that is normal for Tolkien elves.

En mi copia del libro la mayoría de los hechizos se necesita superar una tirada de VOL 3, pero en los videos que he visto aparece el valor de 5. Mi pregunta es, respeto lo que dice el libro o modifico a 5?

En el manual explicas mediante un ejemplo el combate y entre los pasos existe un golpe crítico y no veo que agregues el +5 de daño. Es por alguna situación especial? Podrías elaborar en el tema….?

I have been getting into gamebooks lately and stumbled across this page. Will be keen to check out how the book "plays" out when finished :)

It's coming along! You can also check out my much smaller and simpler gamebook, The Unseen World 😀

El libro comenta que empiezas con 8 de capacidad y al subir de nivel mi FUE incrementa a +1 eso significa que ahora puedo cargar 9 objetos y si continúo con FUE +2 incrementaría a 11. Porque indica que hasta maximo puedo subirlo a 12? Como puedo hacerlo? Hay algo más adelante que me permita modificar la capacidad?

I think it was all percolating in the 1960s and 1970s and the invention of the TTRPG was inevitable although the form may have been quite different if D&D had not gotten there first.

As a child who was in elementary school in the late 70s and early 80s, I was fascinated by both Choose Your Own Adventure novels and D&D at the time. I never really thought of them as particularly related phenomena though back then.

I'm part of a Fate campaign set in prohibition era NYC where we run a diner that acts as a speakeasy at night. One of our characters is a fae baker who weaves magic or alchemy of some sort into various pies, muffins etc.
