WH 1ed; PCs taxed entering Helmgard IIRC 1 pens per leg or wheel - this paid also leaving; entering inner zone (craftsmen) silver shilling per arm; top area needed gold crown per head
there will be likely war tax enacted in Empire, as PCs caused plague in Brettonia and failed Kemmer quest causing major shift in military forces there, making swamp frogs vulnerable to be invaded

That's what I like about cartooning. You can make stuff as cute or as ugly as you like. A lot of my male goblin faces tend to look the same, but there's no reason you can't give them more rounded faces or stubbier noses for a little variety.

there's really not a lot of great options i think. most of the ones that are roughly human woman shaped have some kind of reason why you wouldn't want to be in touching distance with them.
depending on how adventurous you are, well, i'm sure it depends greatly on personal tastes.

We have all experienced the coming and going so GMs, Players and games; and then left holding the bag too start all over again at Square One.
If and when you have to start over from scratch how and where (online) would you start I'll look for groups and games?
There has been numerous reasons that would force someone to start all over again be it scheduling, life, work, people changing.

i like how people have interpreted this in different ways.

but i'd make it a black-and-white rule: no technology. or maybe, no technology for COMMUNICATION (print out character sheets, sure).

one of those axioms like "don't eat any foods your grandparents couldn't have". it's folksy but if you omit keyboards and screens, there goes /tg/, Reddit, Discord, Roll20 (and the rest).

you may even have to play games with your friends that you already know. (or the ones you'll make, moving to a new area.)

I started from scratch after a nearly 20 years hiatus.
I searched online for clubs and groups in my area. Found some kind of TTRPG meetup in the next town. Showed up. Everyone was at least 10 years younger than me, and everyone was only playing DnD. Found out that a local LGS was organising TTRPG nights. Signed up as a GM, and offered something that wasn't shitty DnD. Found some players - some were better than others. With a returning player who had the same interest as me, we founded an TTRPG club and rented a clubroom. Later, through sessions at our club room and at the local LGS, we found more members, and now we're running sessions regularly.
My observation is that the whole local scene is extremely woke (small university town in Europe) - I constantly have to watch what I'm saying. Also, I need to include discussions about "veils and lines" and "safety tools" before sessions, otherwise some players start complaining online. There are also certain 1990s games, I can't play anymore because the woke players would get a fucking meltdown, or I would have to tone them down to a point I'd get bored. Another annoying thing is that players now are quite demanding. Before, players were happy you were running something. Nowadays, they come with bullshit demands (session zero, safety tools, finding dates 3 months in advance...), but show few discipline themselves (they'll ditch the session because they forgot about aunt Martha's birthday, or because they felt they needed to be alone, and if you complain you're marked as toxic). But, I must also say that "modern" players who are interested, tend to be more implicated than before. Their roleplay is better, they want to learn the system and the background story of the setting.
Those are my observation, based on a relatively small sample.

other anon here; did that, have now about two groups of teenager players; bad thing was for few years I were forever MG (still on plus managed to test near everyone RPG system I owned), but now they grew and are trying to GM on their own; major plus is I had willing players for historical and other wargames like DBA and Battletech

I've always considered hags and goblins related somehow. Warty green skin, hooked nose, lives in the forest.

You know how hags always want people's children? They never really mention what happens to those..
>>
>>97353498
For me, they're far too different. Hags are monstrous women that do black magic and eat children. Goblins are sneaky, selfish, horrible fae-types that like causing mischief, that take children to turn them into goblins. Which would then mean the two are at odds in that regard.

Same, but then when you just stick an animal head on a human body and call it a demon or something I'm suddenly fine with it so I guess I'm just a hypocrite

After playing both the original Shandalar and the 2016 update version I've come to the conclusion that magic was just more fun in 1995 when it was more loose and relaxed. The kinds of decks you go up against in the 2016 version are so much more ruthless about shutting down every play you make that the only way to compete is to be an even more obnoxious dickhead and make sure they never get a chance to do anything. Every victory was bitter and spiteful in a way that I never felt with the older simpler Magic cards.

nah, was always ass, you could make in old Shandalar deck with insta win first turn, Black Lotus plus Hurricane IIRC or something
causal play is still best, we had blast for 1.5y just playing 20+ semi thematic decks I kitbashed from my mediocre collection of sporadic buys gathering dust; Archenemy and other multiplayer modes of play were a blast; then everyone started buying new boosters, decks or even dedicated win custom decks and it went into shitter
