I haven't used random weather in the past for the same reasons you shot down some of the reader suggestions to your post. All the random weather charts that I have ever seen suck, and I can do a better job coming up with realistic seeming weather that takes into account the time of year, elevation, micro-climate, the previous days weather, etc., off the top of my head. <br /><br />I eagerly await your weather generator, if you end up posting it. I love reading your blog because you seem to focus on a lot of the aspects of DM prep work that I do not, but that a small part of me wishes that I did. <br /><br />Thanks for all the good reads.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07648499022366444265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210223820598148815.post-73914528474305299702011-10-19T09:14:00.316-07:002011-10-19T09:14:00.316-07:00I surely appreciate your position, Carl.
It isn&#...I surely appreciate your position, Carl.<br /><br />It isn't that I don't run this way myself, most of the time. It's only that having a chart decide what the weather is, and not me, is a way of keeping me honest; or restrained, if you will. It is a way of awarding a little more power to the players, or at least out of my hands, so that I can't have it raining or sunny - or any of the other things I write tables for - just because I want it.<br /><br />I have always felt there was too much power in the hands of the DM. Whatever I can do to cut down on that power, I'll do it.Alexis Smolenskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10539170107563075967noreply@blogger.com
