My LGS just gives away tokens from a big box, once you start using a deck consistently it's a lot easier to ask for single tokens or two tokens if you need them and keep them with the deck. Is it a deck he's used a bunch yet? Enough complaints and he'll probably get the token if so.

a couple friends grabbed this months ago since we were all into the dune books before the movies came out, but we didn't realize the new version changed more than just replacing the art with generic promo shots of the actors
it was decently fun enough but we did want to eventually get at least the 2019 version for the spacing guild+BG, is it worth it? I've heard mixed reports that if you don't have a full 6 players it's not good to play and that it takes much longer, but a longer playtime isn't a con for us

>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.

Well, compared to other professions, they sure don't go on killing sprees.

1d6-2 isn't even that much gain, and you can't do it with wounds anyway so it's fertile ground for RP. Even the combat focused chars and players have some incentive to do what every human wants to this way.
If you care only about chrome and braindances and not about looking stylish and getting laid,that's fertile ground for cyberpsychosis only

Apart from being an edgy boy, I think Adam Smasher is pretty cool. The backup Elvis bodies and the absolute murder hobo sensibility gives him some flavor I think. It's also pretty funny that canonically he was turned into canned EEZYBEEF and they had to scrape what little bit of him was left alive into a duffle bag to bring him back.

He also inspired pic related which is really nova.

I feel like some more guidelines would be nice. For example, take Big Top's Militech Umbrella tech upgraded to be smart-linked (a 2 upgrade slot upgrade normally). Is that a normal upgrade? Or was just researching a one-slot smart-link enough? Is it still just 500eb? I'm guessing a 1 slot smart-link was it's own invention (forget that smart-link shouldn't work on melee weapons). Would Big Top be able to upgrade smart-linked heavy melee weapons next, or does each weapon category need its own invention (1 slot smart-link very heavy melee, heavy melee, exotic weapon, etc). Yeah you can just say 'it's all up to the GM' but some guidance would help a lot. Because just telling niggas to wing it is how we got the preddit referee who was having ripperdocs tear out patient's chrome if left alone.

I used to work security at a strip club IRL and interactions with the girls there were some of the most dismal and misanthropy-inducing experiences I've ever had in my life. Never before had I seen such an uncanny collection of empty husks masquerading as human. An accurate way to balance it might be to have an immediate short term benefit but have mental health dive at an accelerated rate in the medium term, or to have diminishing returns with each visit or even a chance of mental health degradation with no benefit after a certain number of visits.

Warforged are building a god for themselves in the Mournland. Warforged all over Eberron are looking for objects to add to this new gods body. Might make for an interesting character a paladin seeking holy objects or artifacts to take to the build site and add to the god.

If you've never run a TTRPG before, sunless citadel 100%. Otherwise, improvise an adventure from a sandbox like Waterdeep or Ptolus.

I think they're going to be merged chaos dwarfs. Like the ungors have gotten enough of getting pushed around and have become race traitor hob goblins who subject the other gors to horrendous buck breaking in exchange for shiny weapons from their overlords.

like imagine an ungor on a chariot pulled by a centigor

or a ghorgon cyclops being whipped by an ungor.

you get the idea.

The slaves can't be greenskins again because that's too racially charged but anyone can be mutated into a beastman.

I think Chaos Dwarf slave units (if any) will be multi-racial.
We've already got human pathfinders trusted enough to be given hand-held flamethrowers.
That said the Goblin wolf-riders stick out like a sore thumb in the GSG roster, be interesting if those were Chorf units released early thanks to a botched schedule like the horns were.

I also want that but my circa 2003 computer board was $5 at Goodwill and the circa 1996 one I was using before that was free as a gift from my Grandpa so "expensive as hell" would be quite the escalation.

So you don't know what the verb 'effect' means.
>affect: influence, change
>effect: cause, bring into being
I will demonstrate.

PC1 finds himself in a dangerous situation. At this moment he has yet to take any action. Based on the preexisting circumstances, we calculate that his chances, or probability, of survival, is 75%. This probability exists from before he does anything. Therefore, he cannot *effect* it, that is, bring it into being, because it already exists.

PC1 does something clever that gives him an advantage in this dangerous situation. This raises his chances of survival to 80%. In other words, he has *affected*, or changed, his previous chances of survival. It is also possible to say that he has *effected*, or brought into being, a greater probability of survival than he previously had.

>How does the society's placement effect their chances of survival?
This use of 'effect' is wrong because the society's chances of survival, conceptually, already exists. Its geographical placement will not effect (bring into being) its chances (probability) of survival; it will affect (influence) the preexisting chances of survival. Just as my walking from my house into the street affects (influences) my chances of survival but does not effect (bring into being) my chances of survival, placing the society on the map will only affect (influence) its chances of survival and not effect (cause) them.
