Falleen are a really interesting race and the highly inflammatory rumors that they use some unseen body chemical to influence non-falleen people around them is completely false and utterly speciesist behavior.>muh pheromonesThat's just bigotry from backwards outer-rim yokels who couldn't point out a Falleen if it was the only non-human in a lineup.I actually met Prince Xizor himself during trade negotiations as a representative for Kark MegaIndustries - Plaststeel Division and let me tell you he is an amazing man with nothing but the good of his people at heart.I was taken aback by his warm and friendly demeanor, despite the utter tragedy his people suffered during planet-wide pandemic that has decimated his people. It is with great pride I signed the declaration of intent for Kark MegaIndustries to sell a majority share of our projected Plasteel production for the coming ten years to Xizor Transport Systems for use in refugee relief work at a greatly reduced rate. This strategic partnership will ensure not just growth for both companies in the long term but also provide sustainable housing to the billions of refugees fleeing the ongoing terrorist activities in the outer-rim territories.
>>97343023>Corellian>Is the most American cuisine you’ve ever seenAddendum to this: if you ever see a “Corellian Salad” on a menu or are offered some from your host, just understand this: there are seemingly endless varieties of Corellian Salads, not one of which is actually what anyone would call a “salad”, not sure what one would call them… but certainly “salad” is not one that’d come to mind. Also, of all the varieties of Corellian Salads, a solid 75% of them you absolutely do not want.
Can we have a harengon thread here? I've always wanted to play as one but as a forever DM never had the chance. To anyone who has played one how fun is it?
>>97343536It'd be my race of choice for a D&D game if it were available, just because I'm a degenerate with terminal bunny-brain. The basic consensus seems to be that they make strong spellcasters and buff/debuff style support because they get Hare Trigger for better initiative and Rabbit Hop which lets them exit melee without provoking attacks of opportunity. Of course, these could be useful for pretty much any class.
>>97343536Played all of DOIP as a Harengon sorcerer. As >>97343591 mentioned, rabbit hop and hare trigger are great. I also took the alert feat, so I had a big advantage on initiative. Really can’t even tell you how much fun I had playing that guy.
>>97343536Dnd has homogenized races - sorry species - to the point that there’s essentially no difference in them. The experience of playing a harengon is the same as the experience playing a tiefling is the same as the experience playing an elf is the same as the experience playing a genasi - that is to say they’re humans. Stupid thread btw, keep this kind of low level question to the 5e generals, it doesn’t deserve a thread of its own

Previous thread: >>97215703GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: What are some systems or you would like to include or see included in a campaign, but haven't been able to? They don't have to be the main focus of the game, having them only as something on the side is okay.
How are we going to be using Vehicles 4E if it's going to have anything GURPS related stripped from it?
>>97343405Step 1: Use Not-GURPS Vehicles to design a realistic vehicleStep 2: Use the Basic Set, Describing Vehicles, Template Toolkit 2, etc. to obtain GURPS statistics for your vehicle (HP, Handling, Stability)Keikaku douri.
>>97343405Pyramid 3/120 gives a fairly comprehensive system for converting 'real-world' data like 0-60mph times and curb weight into GURPS stats. The only things which is doesn't really cover in a systematic way are Handling and Stability Rating. So you can easily take the output of the VDS and get GURPS numbers out of it. As for Hnd/SR, I'm fairly sure there will be some stats called something like Manoeuvrability and Stability Factor which have a very simple relationship (probably 1:1) to the GURPS equivalent.I will personally make sure that there is a spreadsheet that you can use to do this if you can't be bothered to do the conversions yourself.
>>97343481>>97343469Makes sense. Also if the thing gets done couldn't the anon and Pulver try to make a deal with SJG to actually make it into an actual Gurps product? Most of the heavy lifting would already be done by that point.
>>97343658>Most of the heavy lifting would already be done by that point.Most of the heavy lifting has already been done, and SJG aren't interested. They insist that it has to be edited by their editor and laid out by their layout people and turn a profit (not unreasonable, I suppose) and they didn't think those would really be possible.

>>97343424Too much enlightened self interest and solipsism.Even in the design of collective splat, the Dragon-Blooded, the mere concept of team work charms is seen as a moral failing.
>>97335135What are the pros and cons of 2e sorcery versus 3e sorcery?
>>97343364>It'd be surprising if an old, experienced Exalt who's seen mortal generations come and go would serve a mortal master,I could see it if they have no interest in ruling or administrating a kingdom, like a Twilight architect who just wants to design and build, but it also raises the question of why didn't they just go to a Circle member's kingdom or another Exalt's kingdom and shack up with them, if only because they'd have better access to resources
>>97343648Contrary of what was written, creation is really big and Solars are really rare, it is possible for one to live a really long time before meeting another.
>>97343648Which could also be a fun storyline "why is this experienced guy slumming it in a mortal kingdom?" Did he burn all his bridges and all of his friends are mad at him? Is he trying to make a point or is there something interesting about this particular kingdom? Is he in hiding?

Had a great moment in our session last night fizzle out, I'm wondering if I could have or should have handled anything differently as the GM.>party enters Cragmaw Hideout in the Lost Mines campaign>they immediately free the wolves and climb up the escarpment, fight Klarg first thing and kill him>my fighter saws off the heads of Klarg and his wolf and holds them up as he approaches the three goblins hanging by the pools>flanked by our rogue who is covered in blood, brandishing her daggers and staring maniacally, and our barbarian, who has her Greataxe hefted and a menacing look on her face>Fighter tells the goblins that he's killed their god and now they're going to deliver the Lionshield Coster goods to the party's cart for them>I let him roll Intimidation, that he has a +3 in, with advantage>rolls a 1 and a 4The result was that the goblins wanted to talk instead of just bolting or acquiescing to the demand. Should I have foregone the roll, or do I just say "well sometimes the dice is a bitch" and go with the outcome I did? I've given the fighter Inspiration to use later as he sees fit as well.
>>97341697Dice are dice, sometimes life's a bitch. As long as you don't make the goblins gangrape the party because of that bad roll, I see no reason to not just accept the failure.
>>97341697I think what you did was fine.Bad rolls to me usually mean something else happened. Like it wasn't the fighters fault it went poorly.You could've narrated that the goblins are more afraid of Klarg. Or that they're afraid and show it, but it's not quite enough to open the gate. Or something silly like the goblins can't hear the fighter correctly or actually hated the guys he killed so they're happy about it
>>97343527That's more or less how I played it. I established Klarg as an asshole to the other goblins right off the bat by having him blindly throw a goblin corpse to the wolves from his balcony (not seeing the players), so there was enough reason for me to have the goblins happy that Klarg was gone. There was a failed set of negotiations (mostly because my Barbarian wanted to start a "business deal" that would have the goblins keep doing their thing in exchange for a cut of the profits) that led to a chase to where the other goblins were, then another failed set of negotations that led to a bloodbath. All in all a pretty entertaining session.
>>97341697Foregoing the roll is fine if you think it makes sense, but demanding the roll is also a valid choice. It's fine as long as you stick to what you chose without backtracking, sometimes the dice just fuck you because that's the price of playing the random dice game
I have a bit of an inane question for the peanut gallery. Do you have a favorite thing that you'd never actually play/play as?For example, I just realized that I really fucking love the Samedi/Cappadocian clan/bloodline of Vampire: The Masquerade.But I don't think I'd ever consider playing one, and I'd likely opt to play a Malkavian instead under virtually all circumstances, or a Tremere. Samedi doesn't even register on the list of characters I'd like to play, even when I do have concepts I'd include if I were the ST/GM.
>>97343390Lots of people have ideas they really like but its just ideas instead of a thing they've thought through what it would actually be like in contrast to their fantasy. It causes problems when those ideas and fancies overcrowd actual activity. You see this a lot on /tg/ where various players and gms have too many half baked ideas and it doesn't go well or anywhere. Its not a big deal or very important, but it is frequent.
probably the Upper Hand from Jade Empire for the Xbox.
>>97343390A dhampir. I think they're cool thanks to D and Alucard but I'd never consider playing one in a game.

>>97304453ok
>>97337364I don’t care for this post.
>>97337364>and thus all your historical and mythological cross-referencing is irrelevant to /tg/ because it CANNOT functionFalse. A well grounded historical and mythological understanding helps both world building and improvisation during ttrpg gameplay. A thing you would know if you actually played games instead of desperately refreshing your spambox.
>>97343159Give an actual example. Cause this topic only ever seems to involve squabbling over definitions and never discussing any actual games.
>>97343159For the counterfactuals. Where the history and mythology does not exist. And the rules must have clear descriptions separating game functions.How, exactly, do you write rules for a Wizard doing the rather common COUNTERSPELLS under this prescribed meaning of "magic" that flagrantly ignores words being capable of having outright contradictory meanings? Because that game function strictly requires spells be a distinct thing that can be countered, in turn strictly requiring that they be put in a box away from all the non-spell game functions.
About to start a daggerheart one-shot that could potentially lead into a stable groupWhat am I in for? I thought there'd be more fanfare for this
>>973323305e but "better" (latin for worse). At best you're going to get the average 5e experience you would with those people, at worse you're going to get bored.
>>97332330An okay-ish system that is way more fully of arbitrary game logic about what a character can and can't do based on randomly earned metacurrencies and video game-y attempts at "balance" through likewise arbitrary restrictions on what characters can or can't do.Some people like it, others don't even care it exists. CR/Darrington got their fans to buy it, and then made a bunch of retarded excuses for why they won't be using it for their main campaign after they already sold it to their fans.
