Pretty much what it says on the tin. What games are you running? What are you playing in?Read any new or interesting games lately?For me, currently I am running a sci-fi savage worlds game, I am currently playing in a D&D 5e game and an OSE advanced game.What about you?
>>97952173Oh another thing to add, on the TV thing. There is a show "justified" you can see some examples on it. Pretty sure history channel had a reality show with it too with ginsing hunters, I think.
Anyone here try UESRPG? Is it good?
>>97952308I had never even heard of this and had to Google it.
>>97952358I've seen threads for it here in the past and I'm thinking I'm going to give it a go and see what happens.
>>97952258I appreciate the detailed response. I'm Australian and we don't have all that much variation in accent from side of the country to another so I've always enjoyed hearing from people where there's a bit more regional/subcultural distinctiveness. Shame to hear the dialect is disappearing but I guess that's fairly inevitable.

>>97931584BT is genuinely not a flavor that everyone enjoys, and there are several other styles of mech combat it doesn't cover. BT is more like a naval game than a tank or anime super infantry fight. Both Steel whats'is and C.A.V. aim for a lighter version of BT (although Black Talon seems to be going under), then you've got your tank-combat-ish games like Fistful of TOWs' mecha supplement and Heavy Gear, and a few anime attempts that almost always fail. Even if Robotech Tactics was genuinely a good game. >>97932489>have any of you made an awg? tell me about it!See: >>97928879I still fuck around a bit but have more fun hacking existing rulesets these days.
To the anon who recommended Oathmark to me yesterday. Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted. Kingdom building system is really cool and tickles the autism in the right way.
>>97952468Nta, but I like Oathmark.There's a new edition coming down the pipeline soon, promising some balance tweaks, and rolling some of the expansion material into the new core book, such as the undead faction.

Shadowdark has been the "new hotness" in the OSR scene for a few years now. I dig the b/w art and the vibe they have going but have not gotten to try it.Have you? If so how did it go?
>>97951377C&C is an old one, it never recaptured it's early days fire. What what I see, them not during real gaming editions hurts the overall product. But hope ya enjoy it.

>>97951748>>tg/ tends to lean more contrarian so that sounds accurate. i have to say though, if you're hoping for them to change their mind, you're going to be sorely disappointedI am well aware the types of folks who tend to gather here.

>>97940952It’s ok. I’m currently in a campaign, we’re about 10 sessions in. I think it’s overhyped but definitely not the worst thing out there. I have a couple problems with it. I really don’t like how hit or miss magic is. I prefer having magic work when you use it but having limited uses that you can plan around. Also, I don’t like how many monsters have multiple attacks while no PC gets multi attacks. You end up in situations where the PCs technically outnumber a group of monsters but the monsters have double their amount of attacks. It can make fights seem incredibly unfair when you think you should be on more even footing. And I can’t put my finger on it but there’s just something about the game that feels like a board game and not a roleplaying game. Like you’re just moving your character around the Clue mansion. I considered running Shadowdark for my friends who are 5e babies but one campaign of it is enough for me
What happened? A decade ago this was the WW2 game in every LGS. Now it's deader than dead.
>>97941694 Add: constant stock issues, so you it's awkward to actually get those models
>>97930359I love wargaming and table top miniature games etc.. Its not just not a good WWII game, feels like all the other miniature rules with WWII skins.
>>97941669Fireball Forward and Battlegroup are my jam when it comes to 15mm WW2
>>97930359Team Yankee and v4>>97930474To be honest, I think it's company building system and the way those company types interacted with each other (eg Tank Companies attack Infantry companies) was one of the best listbuilding systems of any wargame that let you pick your own TOE&E

Thread dead for two entire days edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade.

How are there still savage tribes around in your game when there are kingdoms filled with knights in full harness and powerful mages who can kill with a thought?
>>97951355You mean Ricimer?
>>97951359I was more thinking of Odoacer, as he was the one who didn't even bother with a figurehead Emperor anymore.
>>97951363It was a long culmination of Barbarians slowly moving within Rome's borders and gaining positions of note.
>>97952383Sure, but it was a case of barbarians joining Rome and, largely, maintaining Roman institutions once they'd taken over. It was hardly a straightforward case of military conquest, and my understanding, at least, is that while Germanic peoples of that time were barbarians by Roman or Greek standards, they weren't exactly the kinds of simple. savage tribes OP is talking about.
>>97952452Yeah going into Rome civilized them a bit.

>>97950784These are usually framed as Luck powers.
>>97871738on a related note, would you prefer the game having a single meta-originwhere all the meta-humans in the area originate from the same event, giving the setting a distinct moment where it stopped being the world outside your windowlike how most adaptations of spider-man, notably excepting the 90s show and 60s show, tend to try to connect all the villains of their world to oscorp
>>97771368Besides the obvious like mind control powers and demonic and/or darkness powers, what are some more commonly “villainous” powers that you’d like to see heroes use more, and vice versa besides villains with light powers?Also, what do you need to consider about mind control powers when using them, heroic or otherwise? Or the suggested powers in general?
>>97952052As a kid I used to think that copying or "stealing" other character's powers was a villain power because it wasn't "fair." Also the ability to switch bodies or transfer your mind into a clone is a great power for villains to have.

>>97949441I am sure if someone was passionate enough about it they could do it. But I am not sure why, 4e as a design is very, very far from OSR.
>>97949063Yes sorry but we're not going to spoon feed you this, if you want knowledge, then work for it.
>>97949063What exactly are you asking?
>>97949441I had been considering making a simplified, fastplay almost take on 4e characters, like, just picking the simple "+1 for this all the time" ability options as standard, but even that looks a bit like a pain.>>97949063How about Morale rolls after some monsters get killed? I think one 3e or Chainmail book had a quick way to figure out morale scores, or maybe it was a Dragon article. It makes for a nice bit of old school flavor, at least.
