Now that normalfags have finally been exposed to dungeon meshi, isn't is the opportunity to rope in new players to a megadungeon campaign without freakshit races?

The fuck you're talking about? Post 4e tieflings are different from earlier editions, especially the planescape ones. Pathfinder dialed back on that and included not baatezu tieflings, they're kinda weeb and edgy, but at least they were diverse.

How do you manage players that want to play a with character whose mechanic/gimmick is being a synergic duo... But with "another PC" as their goon?
Or in another words a player with "two characters"
Any limitations or specific rules?
Should the DM determine or debuff "the actions" of the other character?
Would you even allow it at your table?

They're friends and coworkers retard.

Anyway you tell them to talk to the other players in the game to work that shit out in most systems, and have it be an actual han/chewie friendship type situation where they have shared backstory.

Then there's Digimon Digital Adventures where playing two PCs is the norm, and one is the skill monkey (the human) and the other does combat (the digimon).

>What is Project Fourk-Hammer?
Project Fourk-Hammer (provisional name) is an experiment to see if the 40k community on /tg/ is interested enough to come together to homebrew a fan fork edition of Warhammer 40,0000's 3-7e Era, primarily inspired by 4th Edition. Think Warhammer Armies Project but for Warhammer 40k's Fourth Edition.

As it stands, there are currently multiple projects in various stages of completion relating to /fourk/, and the thread has become a community repository for all of these various works. Anons are welcome to share their own homebrews as well.


Find the current listing here: https://pastebin.com/QGYx56X3

>Why are you doing this?
/tg/ complains about modern 40K constantly. At least one /tg/ anon has already succeeded in producing a viable alternative to 40K in the form of OnePageRules, however this is not satisfying to many since it is too shrimplified and lacks the flavour and identity they love, or once loved.

Those are good ideas for the structure of this section. How's this?

I wanted to be very careful with overwatch and not make it too easy to go into it. I don't want to tempt players to get into standoffs with entire armies overwatching each other. As a result there were a lot of criteria a unit has to meet, so I decided against making overwatch its own action in an effort to future proof it against any rules I write down the line. Same with why the unit is removed from overwatch when charged but still allowed to Stand and Shoot. I wanted overwatch to be a very specific thing.

I tried to clarify my requirements pertaining to line of sight, let me know if that helped. What I meant to say with the rule was that a unit not in area terrain or in a vehicle/building/battlements couldn't have an enemy unit able to draw line of sight to them without that line passing through cover. I didn't want units just standing in the open overwatching, they would put themselves behind cover to do so.

Excellent suggestions, thanks! Let me know if anything is still unclear about these.
>>
>>92826864
I would. Actually , playing BA made me wonder if anyone "rewrote" the rule for 40k setting, with for example a wider range of possible "units stats", factions reacting in a different way to moral test/pinning etc...

Technically, we're not talking about anything to do with God's light, Heaven, or His angels. This is a conceptually similar, but very much material phenomena wherein human souls transmigrate into different bodies as they experience organ failure. It's closer to an exotic legal code or medical practice than any kind of true supernatural process. One could consider the moral trappings of it to be evidence that it is itself an example of divine providence, but that would be a matter of extreme conjecture.
>>
>>92832530
Most mythologies have some level of worldly access to the afterlife or other "supernatural" places. The notion that the supernatural needs to be utterly inexplicable, unreliable, or inaccessible is a post-empirical cope trying to defend it from the historic traditions being rapidly falsified.

A great many Christians throughout history, including no small number of clergy, assume that Heaven works much as depicted in D&D, where good people faithful to God awaken immediately after death to His kingdom. It's the premise of all the "[recently dead] is in a better place now" talk comes from.

I'd rather they put Scavvies into the starter but I'm glad they made the stealers look extra sick/creepy so it's not just ported-over 40K vibes.

The terrain in the starter looks really shitty though. It doesn't seem like they're actually miles underground. And it's going to be a Van Saar shooting gallery.

I actually like Brujah the best because VtM is at its best when it's hokey and overly dramatic. They're clearly inspired by classic 80s movies like the Lost Boys and Warriors, or characters like the Kurgan from Highlander.

Just imagine being a Ventrue or Lasombra, and having to interact with a gang of vampiric Backstreet Boys, who hold the entire city under their sway, commit petty acts of vandalism in their free time, and every direct challenge to their rule is first met by angrily removing their shirts. It's absolutely hilarious.

The teaching of witches should be like the Moonshine version of Wizardry.
Is it an arcane caster? Yes
Is it magic gathered by learning magic? Yes.
But how it functions should differ in the flavor.

Witches are spooky and that should be a prominent aspect of their magic, how it's more rural, how its more natural. It should feel like you took 2/3's cup druid 1 Cup wizard and 1/3rd cup warlock.
if that makes sense.

Back when I was in my late teens in Scars of Mirrodin block, my local card shop used to pull around 50 people each week.

now 7 people go there to play commander. And wotc gives free promo packs to endosse it.

why are "dungeons" (not in the literal sense, but as "confined spaces where flow of the game changes from freeform/narrative form to structured form") in rpg sources so spacious and convenient to navigate? there is a complete disregard of visibility , crawling, squeezing, swimming, slipping, temperature , attrition, hunger, thirst, elevation, disorientation, etc. Everything is too comfortable. Do you like your dungeons consisting of a bunch of comfortable flat corridors with ideal space to stand and swing weapons?
