>>97200112Are we playing the same game? People run this in ugin decks and I see it pretty often.
>>97220149I mean it's only been around for 2 years, but with the recent influx of cards from cube and bonus sheets it looks like it's going to start being better supported.I mean I don't really care much about it from an aspect of competitive viability or a healthy scene, but it's a lot of fun and I'm glad to see it growing.
>>97221756I'm so glad they do so, 100 rares + 100 mythics crafts the entire format due not that many cards being viable. And they stick forever, somehow an insane budget format. Unlike Standard eating 40 rares every 3 months.
>opponent takes like a minute every fucking turnIs he literally fucking braindead?
>>97221987And it just keeps happening. Is it fucking retard day?
What is the best system for playing a paraplegic fantasy adventurer?
>>972154905eThey have a 3pp officially promoted module where you for the cheap price of nothing become better than people with functional legs
>>97221198Eastoids make them hot. I unironically think that westoids would have gotten away with the social justice movement much longer if they kept the marquee characters conventionally cool and attractive.
>>97221926That's only part of the issue, token characters always feel forced and hamfisted because inherently are unless the whole thing is made with levity in mind or they're part of a joke. In the specific case d&d adventures aren't generic fantasyland escapades but are specifically and for the vast majority about outdoormanship, underworld delving and monster fighting, putting a guy in a conventional wheelchair there only evokes annoying, dragging scenarios, making the guy sit on an unconventional wheelchair (that offsets those inconveniences) makes the whole exercise moot. On the other hand having the cripple strapped to, for example, a dire wolf mount makes the whole experience potentially interesting balancing out the potential grievances.
>>97215592>geez, he raped your dog but it was like a 5min thing why are you still talking about it, just let it go if you don't mention it ever again everyone would forgot already why are you STILL talking about it, it was like 10 years ago? I didn't even remembered about the dog rape untill you mention it AGAIN geeeez
>>97217028Look it at this wayIf the rules says you can make a downie, BUT you don't have to talk like a downie, and everyone around you treats you normally (not like they would treat a downie), plus you have extra perks like "perpetual Rage", why wouldn't you play a downieThey want to play the gimp in a wheelchair precisely because they DON'T have to be a gimp in a wheelchair

Do the Skitarii have any martial arts? What if they developed some?
You know, I always find it odd that while Nurgle and Khorne have proper chaos space marines that represent them in the Khorne berserkers and plague marines, the same cannot be said about Slaanesh and Tzeentch. Like, shouldn’t Tzeentch marines should be something like a sorcerer unit, or a heavy mutant marine unit? And I don’t know what Slaanesh should have got to be honest
>>97221709I think so. Player 3 is foaming at the mouth for the chance to kill daemons and already delivered two IC rousing speeches. We got a "daemons could be here. With the warp, you can go anywhere you want" joke and we pretended we never started doing DW and were instead playing our other campaign.>>97221751They're all new players but one, a big fight against a greater daemon would've been too tough for their level, especially since no one would've had fun cause only the librarian is equipped to battle them effectively, and the main enemy are Nids.>did that test completely wrongThat's what I was going for, to be fair. Completely flip the expectations of how a normal test should go, hence offering players to pick a -20 penalty. The highest WP player failed his 90% chance to succeed, while the lower one passed his 18% twice, so the RNG was also tzeenchian. The reward for the room was a fate point, so they got that back as well, no "gotcha! you wasted resources on an illusion".
>>97221929Slaanesh does have his Noise Marines though, who are supposed to represent love for extreme stimuliTzeench has plenty of sorcerers serving him, which aren't relly a "unit" per se, but it would be hard to make one of them seeing how individualistic they tend to be. And rubric marines are associated with him, who are a resurt of sorcery
>>97221976I know that, but they don’t represent them well like how Khorne berserkers and plague marines represent Nurgle and Khorne. Like, which part of rubric marines scream Tzeentch? These automatons could well be Nurgle units considering how tough they are

>>97221784If anon comes back and says a rapier isn't a sword, don't bother replying to the retard.
>>97221800finesse is gay anyway
>another weekend where we all miss every attack and the DM never misses, then obviously fudges numbers to keep up alive
>>97221726It is, but some prefer to do very little with it. The John Smith the farmer type. I think a better question may have been do people like going in depth or making complicated backstories?
>>97221896the last session I ran, everyone missed, me the GM included, somehow felt very much in line with the tone of the game as it was set in Brancalonia, but fuck it made the combat longer than it was supposed to
I haven't kept up with 40k lore in a long while but I just found out that they brought this guy back for no real reason and I find it really cringe. What I liked about the old lore was that humanity was in decline, the Imperium that once was is a long distant memory, the heroics of the past is shoruded in uncertainty and ambiguity and all that remains is the rot and decay. Now we have a dude from the past that has just come back and he is totally badass and cool and is gonna fix everything and also any ambiguity that makes the past mysterious and interesting is now gone because there are people alive who can backup what happened. It feels less grimdark and more marvel super hero shit. I don't really like it.
This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.This is different than the regular osrg as due to rampant trolling from a handful of bad actors, discussion is impossible.
>>97220910The fuck is BROsr?
>>97221917A miserable pile of cope!
>>97221930LolBut actually, what are they?
>>97221968A group of dudebro larpers on twitter or whatever, who were mildly comical in that they claimed to be playing AD&D 1e more raw than anybody, but got things wrong. Largely irrelevant and mostly gone now. They're also one of fishfag's many scapegoats for everything he doesn't like.
>>97221984They must use this place too lol, everytime I see anything OSR getting discussed there are retarded losers who don't know how to read the rules spouting off about how they're sanctified and beyond reproach.
How do you justify a "pest race" like goblins or rat people in your setting? Why wouldn't the dominant species make a concentrated effort to eradicate them if they were a problem?
>>97214004>Consider: Why can't modern states exterminate the nazi populations within?Because they are cowards.
Who on Warth would want to exterminate this? Anyone who would is a monster.
>>97213999Canada is not the best example to cite of a nation capable of dealing with invasive pest species
>>97215103God I hate millennial writing
>>97220088>can't name a single traditional game he playsYeah I don't think so
Games where Intelligence is the best stat? Hard mode: not because of magic.
>>97217507Starfinder 1e because hacking is broken and it's an INT skill. Basically everything in the game can be either reproduced or circumvented via hacking. You can hack doors, alarms, vehicles. You can hack people's phones, even their weapons and armor. It's the best combat skill, the best social skill, and the best utility skill. And it all hinges on a single kind of skill check: Computers, which is INT-based. You can even get wireless hacking at a very low level, allowing you to basically hack anything in Bluetooth range, removing the need to actually touch what you're hacking or look suspicious while doing it. The developers released a supplement later on that tried to nerf hacking by splitting it up into three separate skills, forcing hackers to at least choose one or two things to be absolutely broken at, rather than bending the game over and fucking it constantly. However, the devs didn't have the balls to just straight-up patch it, so they released the change as a set of "optional rules," which--when a playgroup is even aware of them--are generally ignored.
>>97218454Those people aren’t actually in charge. The real puppeteers are unseen. Even Epstein was just a pawn. Level up lil bro
You get to improve skills by +10% for each point of Intelligence in BRP at the end of character creation. Also the Idea rolls can be versatile and really useful, depending on how much the GM lets PCs get away with.
>>97219434He's a retard who hasn't played with it either. Again. Play a game for once in your life with real players.
>>97217507Digimon Digital Adventures 1.4, where investing into Improved Derived Stat Brains + Technician and its branching qualities + Prodigious Skill Computers on your Digimon can effectively let them warp reality because they can affect all code and have a bare minimum of like +30 on their 3d6 Skill Checks.

>>97218678>>TQ: Which Ability has the coolest Infernals Charms?None, the best Infernal charms are theme based
>>97221865>t. Most humble Zenith
>>97221467I don't think she has the ability to infest people's souls based on what that anon said, as per Neco Arc's new lore.
>>97218804No Inspire action is pretty meh for Social Influence. Teamwork is also way too strong, I'd cap it somehow.Other than that, I have a way better time with it than 3e because it actually feels playable and doesn't try and obfuscate the differences between Exalt types by breaking them up into hundreds of fiddly literal who charms.
>>97219954IMO they named too many of the Eight generals. Also they did that thing with Ipithymia that they did with the Lover and made her sexless.At that point, just make a different character so that people who liked her can feel free to port her forward without much hassle.
So, now you need to decide. Do you close your eyes to what you've seen and go back to sleep? Or do you come with this psycho burnout and do the impossible against the unbelievable and keep the future at bay for another day? What's it going to be? In or out?Yeah? You dumb shit.>Thread Question:What conspiracy trope do you use the most and how mythos-adjacent do you make it?>Unofficial Resources:https://delta-green.neocities.org
>>97211142I like Iconoclasts setting, the middle east and central asia are pretty cool place for scenarios
>What name should we give to one of the primary antagonists>Uh let's just call him LupusBravo Detwiller
What's the best shotgun you've read from this year?Mite b the Moss Covered Arrowhead one, but that might just be a goof I like. It's a decent scenario, but making it stone age sidesteps a lot of the difficulty writing investigation and combat in modern games.What's the weirdest that's not shit?The Everyone Is John scenario is either good fun or a disaster damp squib at the table.
One of the most prolific 'writers' half the scenarios are bad is called lovecrafts cat herder and leddit does NOT like that.
>>97221949The Dog is good - simple notes and basic structure with some evocative optional stuff included.The one about the Hungarian Emperor coming back as zombie Napoleon would probably be cool if it was a full scenario instead of chopped up to fit the word limit.This new captcha is pretty good fun.

>>97216334OR here. Amazing work!Having others do their own take on my stuff is a great learning tool for me
I'm not sure if I'm good enough yet to start contributing, but since the majority of my art is fetish related, I've really been meaning to break out into other content types. I already work in high fantasy, so... I'll be lurking!
I can see your taste, but I can also tell you have talent. Just try to keep your fetishes in check and you are welcomed (even though I am curious myself)

>>97221662but 12 Hammercata would be better than all those shitty bolterbait Despoilersfor one thing they can actually score
>>97218262Hey, yes, as the other anon said, the "tablet" is from the Spartan spruey the one in guns, tech marine and other stuff.The table is from the tetarded primaris impulsor. This table is glued on a bit that I think comes from the Leman Russ tank, but not sure.

>>97221841you have to be within 12" of the enemy units, retardo boy. That means on their turn they move 7" or more, then setup 1-6" closer, then charge 2d6-pick-highest.And that's being nice and assuming his tank is in front of his army next to his infantry. If it's screened Behind any other units, you won't even be able to EVER get within 12" of it with a predator, dumbfuck.
Anyone have the lore tid bit about EC delimbing their members to put inside Saturnine armor?
I got thinking recently, and I feel like a big problem with games where the main appeal is the vibe/feel of the setting rather than unique mechanics/crunch isn't the idea of an artistically driven game in and of itself. The problem, IMO at least, is more that A: a lot these games aren't just narrative-before-mechanics, the mechanics are a complete afterthought, and B: they're all aping the exact same vibe. If we only had 1 or 2 games attempting to capture the "grimdark" vibe it wouldn't be so bad but it feels like everything is going for variations of the exact same aesthetic/narrative flavour. At least Turnip28 had some degree of whimsy in the actual fluff, but with Trench Crusade, Mork Borg and a billion other "the artstyle is Streaking Grime" settings I personally am feeling grimdark fatigue.I dunno- I feel like an art/vibe driven game with an actually unique or at least underutilized vibe (purely as an example, aping the bright and colourful look of 2nd edition 40K and its contemporaries) and decent mechanics would be good.
>>97220097>I intend toLOL
>>97219773I agree, art direction is everything, no one wants to play with a world that is visualized to look dull and ugly
Everyone's trying to do grimdark because it's popular. The market exists and wants it, so everyone's jostling for first place. You can make a game with any other look but it's untested grounds.
>>97219773>they're all aping the exact same vibeThat's because you're looking at things that are all descended from the same source because it's far and away the most popular game in that niche.
>>97220097>I intend toYou can literally start right now!
