>>97347004It's more of a feeling. I know they are fine with it, they said sorta in terms of how hardcore they wanted to go was like... 4 to a 8 out of ten (10 is death and 1 is knocked out and they wake up on the street) but yeah I'm not particularly hardcore.

>>97341506Have you considered that you made a choice to specialize in a non-combat role in a game where you can choose either/or?You can still fight, in the same way a fighter can still haggle with a merchant; but you chose not to specialize in that task.A roleplaying game is about choices.You chose not to be a fighter in a violent world.That means you have to be smart, and think quickly; get out of danger, flee, summon help, come prepared with a useful item like a firepot, or a low-skill weapon like a crossbow, that you can use coward-tactics with.Duh.

>>97328517Why do all those Algerians in France love him so much then?
the main problem that I see is that people are push the fantasy part to much to the sidelines and just try to make it too historical while not putting the same constrains on other types of fantasy just as an example, the irl medieval period was very different from what we watched in the Lord of the Rings, DnD is even more different in almost all aspects what is needed is first to get a setting that is to the period just like DnD/LotR is to the irl medieval period

Yeah, what possible threat could peasants be? It's not like they killed Geralt in the books or anything.
>>97342736Amongst themselves, they’ve made reasonably made it work, so far. Everyone’s appreciated the druid’s healing magic. The Witcher’s a Griffin Witcher, and his idealism is rubbing off on the elf whenever they lament human bigotry together.The elf and vran have started hate-fucking.

Why the fuck would you play OSR? Every edition is an improvement on the previous--that's why they make new editions, to refine and better their content. Is it just nostalgia? Are they mentally impaired or senile? What the fuck is wrong with OSR "fans"?
>>97345658The /osrg/ is fucked. A few guys who organize themselves on a discord are fucking it to death.They even used to advertise their discord here, up until they got doxxed by someone and /tg/ got to see who was responsible for the psycho-behavior.
>>97312139as much as i hate OSR, not every new edition is an improvement over the previous edition.sometimes the wrong lessons are learned (D&D 5.5e), sometimes an experiment doesn't pan out (D&D 4e), sometimes it's not even a refinement and it's just an author trying to fuck over the previous edition (Tunnels and Trolls)

Hey thereI've decided to start a West Marches-style campaign on my LGS. It sounds the perfect style to run for a public setting w/ rotating players, but I myself have never DMed oneAny experiences, tips and advices regarding DM-ing/playing West Marches style games?Or general tips for running games on LGS ? For those unfamiliar with West Marches style, here is what google have to say about it:>Player-Driven Exploration: Players decide where to go and what to explore, venturing into unknown territory from a safe starting town.>Rotating Cast: A large pool of players participates, but different combinations of adventurers form parties for each session, preventing the need for a single regular group.>Sandbox World: The world is a sandbox, with the map and plot emerging as players discover new locations and rumors, rather than being dictated by the GM.>No Fixed Schedule: Sessions occur when players organize themselves, often on a voluntary basis.>Low GM Prep: The Game Master (GM) focuses on creating a world and potential encounters, responding to player choices, rather than crafting complex plots.>Self-Contained Sessions: Adventures are often designed to be resolved in a single session, with storylines evolving over time.Comment too long.

lol what is this gayness dude, here you go:https://watabou.itch.io/perilous-shoresand i know someone will argue 'West Marches' is ackshyually some 3.5/4E ingenious concept from that one blog because... you rotate GMs! ...there's unknown hexes! zomg.that's just called 'D&D'. that's how you should be playing, if you follow the game rules. read the Expert half of B/X even if that's not the edition you're running.
OP hereSurprised the thread is still alive while I was out during the weekend!>>97344135Please do>>97344551>https://watabou.itch.io/perilous-shoresI skimmed through it but it seems to be simply another map generator. I don't see the point of those, since its effectively the same as me creating one of my own (or use an existing one from previous campaigns, which is something I traditionally do)>there's unknown hexes!Whatever West Marches was originally is of little to no importance - what matters is what we make of it. I don't think that WM needs to be about hexcrawl, but I want my campaign to be a hexcrawl, and the unknown hexes aspect of it is the BIG thing that's getting me hyped about it. Traditionally, as the DM, I will prepare stuff and then more passively watch players go through it - its fun, but I've done it dozens of times. By generating hexes on the run, I'm hoping to be part of the discovery and enjoy the thrill of itI've tested my hex generation procedure (explained here >>97335816), made some tweaks, probably will test it again by myself a bit more before running the test session this ThursdayComment too long.

Since thread is still alive, decided to post updates:Jan 15 - Test Session>Playing w/ my regular group (3 people players since the 2 others are on vacation)>One already created his character sheet, other two should already be working on the PCsJan 20 - First Session>Looking for a party of 6 players to play at LGS>Haven't announced the group yet but already got half of the seats filledNow wondering how I can make the LGS group rotate between sessions, in case all players decide to always show up. Should I maybe make first session for less people then open a bit more seats for second session? (like 5 for first session, 7 for second, for the third I would see how it goes cause 7 is already a lot)
>>97336728>>97339351>Yeah, it depends on availability. I do happen to live somewhere with a wider population,You don't get it, do you?The original post about West Marches claimed that in rural nowhere, in a township with 5k people, they've managed to get 120 (122, to be precise) players. And all of those players didn't have any other groups and gaming commitments, while the year was 2006Totally legit story, right? I guess anyone pointing this out is just contrarian, while you further miss the memo that while the original story was utter fucking bullshit, online play made WM perfectly viable, precisely by circumnavigating the whole issue with finding sufficient number of players and ones for plug-and-play style of games.
>>97350130>You don't get it, do you?>The original post about West MarchesI think its you that don't get it, anon. I'm not obsessed on the veracity of an internet post of 20 years ago. I'm interested in making my own campaign run well>online play made WM perfectly viableIf it works for you, great. I myself am not a big fan of online TTRPG, I tried it a couple of times with my core group (during the pandemic, for instance), but didn't work for me>circumnavigating the whole issue with finding sufficient number of playersLGS started to do TTRPG recently, and their group exclusive to TTRPG already has 119. I think finding players for the most played/famous TTRPG system is going to be just fine

>>97290857>top third from the rightdidn't expect a down syndrome goblin
looks more like the witches from The Witches than what i'd consider a goblin.how old fairy tales illustrated them is fine, but i guess by the time of the dark n grounded 2000s Hollywood films (which, ironically, look camp and silly nowadays) that was camp and silly.
>>97342961That's the beauty of goblins, they're inclusive of all freaks and weirdos.

>>97346434You're making bullshit up.Ever since the individual Great Companies were described by GW in the 5th ed codex, the Sea Wolves were described as "dark of skin and temperament"And this was before Magnus' latest invasion that decimated Fenris' civilian population that they just had to get a whole new shipment of colonists. And exterminatus another planet in the system.
>>97346898>copeThe dark skin is usually described as being 'tan,' then again...>black temperamentAh man. They're goddamn gangbangers. >"Yo, LEMAAANN wez just capped dem foolz. Baller."Well, I guess Fenris being Space Detroit does make sense... In a way that the liberal writers would be very unhappy with. Fenris will be going through a rough patch since Imperial EBT is now gone.>"The Space Wolves only see 'bangin,' 'rappin,' and 'ballin' as a way off Fenris instead of civic duty and work.">-Rebolute 'get a job' Guilliman.
>>97346898>>97346941>Fenris >Literal Space DetroitAh man. I know Geedubs was desperately hoping for Blackrock money but this is hilarious. Goddamn. The Space Wolves are the ultimate product of Nig@synthesis, even bigger than the Hateocracy of Fenrisian legend.
Fenris was a spaceship making factory settled by... Eh... Let's call them 'Zero-G Ball Columbians.' As Columbian industries were increasingly contracted out to third galactic Grot worlds, Fenris became a mega slum as all the... Hmm... Let's call them 'Golden Men,' left for better planets leaving Fenris, or as it was known at the time: Obama, in the hands of its now unemployed workforce. When the Eldar Empire fell, Planet Obama fell into further irrelevance as what was left of Aeldari investments dried up so the planet became poor as fuck. Things got so bad even the Grot H1B holders weren't setting up scam call centers and the Stryxis 24/7 owners were tired of getting robbed so they took off. Then the Age of Strife happened and most of the population starved due to EBT and food stamps no longer being available resulting in a societal decline.
