Alright so here's my idea for my DC frontload build
>Race

Hybrid: Human + (Free) Android (400) + Metahuman (200)

- Human gets Abstracted Host at a discount
- Metahuman gains 1600 MP (Meta Points) with which to model some sort of superpower you’ve spontaneously gained.
- Androids may also feel free to define a flexible, open-ended superpower reflecting theintended purpose of your design

>Plot Armor

Abstracted Host (300 CP)

>Superpowers

Factions are one of the cornerstones of a good dungeon. I'd go as far as to say they may be one of the most important pieces. Without factions, you have nonstop hack-and-slash. Factions enable meaningful player choice and give party faces something to do without trivializing the dungeon.
Why don't modern D&D modules have much faction stuff? Classics like The Caverns of Thracia or B4 the Lost City are packed full of them. Are the people designing current dungeons just talentless morons?
>>
>>97179508
They do, but they've done the smart thing and moved them out of the dungeons. Rather than "you wander into a dungeon for epic loot" it's "this faction wants you to go here and do this, but this other faction wants this instead" and so on.
>>
>>97179508
Module design has been dragonlance style railroads for decades anon. The recent inflation with osr play is a fad and niche within a niche. They make railroad slop because it's what they want. Most players and gms can't handle too much agency and variables in their beer and pretzel game.

How many players do your current game(s) have?

How much is too much?

What's the smallest group you've been with? What's the biggest?

For me three players is the comfiest. I've ran games for two, and there was this time the table had 12 players. It was a complete shitshow but it was fun giving the GM a headache.

>How many players do your current game(s) have?
3
>How much is too much?
6
>What's the smallest group you've been with? What's the biggest?
2 and 6

I find four is a good number almost all of the time, so I try for five players in a lot of my games. That way, if one person cancels, you still have four, and if two people cancel, I still feel like I can run.
>>
>>97179894
Depends on the game as for the first question. For the second, I think the best is 4 players + 1 GM, and the minimum/maximum for a good time is 3 to 5 players.

My most controversial session was when the toreador player was shopping around for a childer. He came upon a highschool girl named Constance. After using presence to lure her away, he proceeded to get her drunk and high before making her reveal her darkest secrets her father and older brother were molesting her and recording it. Then over the course of 3 nights, he force fed her blood, embraced her, and put her family on a sacrificial alter. She then drank them dry before realizing what she had done and had a total breakdown.

The toreador player was furious with me when I made her unbondable and turned her into an antagonist hellbent on getting revenge on him (and all other vampires) for committing "the ultimate rape" against her.

Maybe I am in the wrong but to me he crossed the line when he tried to bloodbond her and made her kill her family. That poor girl never had a choice in life so I made sure she would never be a thrall to anyone else in undeath.

>>97180205
Did he try to charisma her consistently into his viewpoint or was it just Presence spam? If it was Presence spam you have a point but if he actually tried to brainwash her the normal way I think it's an error on your part. Turning her into an antagonist wasn't a bad idea, but perhaps it was too fast? I don't know the specifics of the campaign

I got it from Charnel Houses of Europe: The Shoah. I really wanted to do the artwork in the beginning of all the holocaust victims on the shore of the river styx but it was split into 2 pages and Im a filthy phoneposter who was too lazy to edit it together.

So apparently there's a Neopets TTRPG in the works.
Always liked Neopets, and I'm quite a fan of Neopia as a setting. Quite excited for this.

>>97179891
According to the kickstarter page:
>The Neopets TTRPG game system originally started as a D&D 5e system. We decided about a year and a half ago to ultimately make it its own system and have used 5e and Pathfinder as a basis for many of the core, tried and true mechanics of a dice-driven TTRPG system. A d20 is used to resolve many dice rolls, many checks refer to your specific stats, etc. A lot of it is going to feel very familiar to a D&D player.

>That being said, some of the original rules were a little clunky, not streamlined to facilitate a more story-driven approach (or a wackier kind of world), or not quite befitting a Neopets-themed experience, so they've undergone some extensive modifications, reworks, and re-imaginings, and half the fun has been finding ways that marry the lore and worldbuilding of Neopia with actual game mechanics and metaphysical explanations for certain things. Ever wonder why Paintbrushes hum, or got a sneaking suspicion that Pet Rock is actually sentient? We've gotten to dive into some of those things.
>>
>>97180240
So is there going to be a mon collecting aspect, or just an RPG in the Neopets universe?

>either way I don't think that an RPG whose only notable aspect is mining nostalgia can be successful based on that single thing
>>
>>97180261
pretty sure it's the latter
neopia's lore is kind of awesome though, so i wouldn't say nostalgia is its "only notable aspect"

Just the Battleforce.

I always found it weird that D&D was maligned as witchcraft, satanism, and anti-social. From what I can tell, TTRPGs just increase sociability, problem solving, conscientiousness, and probably improves self-concept through skills and self-esteem. Did any anons here live through Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons or the Satanic Panic? Sorry if this is boring or repetitive to others, but I want to study the social aspects of TTRPGs and how it exists as a subculture. I think, by and large, this is the best board on 4chan because people really care about this hobby and want to help others get into it. Despite the shitposting, I think the community is vibrant and the games I played through Find a Game threads were all filled with genuine, nice people. So it irks me that the Satanic Panic tried to paint subcultures as evil. Maybe it's because people think TTRPGs overlap with extreme music or just teenage entertainment in general.

The average right wing white hetero male is as thin skinned as that, if not worse. They get triggered by different skin color, women having rights, in fact just about anything that gives human rights to other human groups make them screech like toddlers.

So, why the double standard? The LGBT people are actually under a tangible, very literal threat of violence and systemic oppression. White men aren't.

Hey /tg/ here's the origins and explanation of the xenomorph and its setting.

-Explains the Weyland Yutani world and offers a bonus animated story
-Explains various features of the xenomorph such as how it actually sees without eyes
-Explains HR Giger and Dan O Bannon's original inspirations for the xenomorph
-Explains logically how the xenomorph is closer to the truth and is a combo of 2 civilizations.
-Provides 3 entire civilizations for the xenomorph
-Shows images of what the real xenomorph homeworld looks like and its bestiary
-Links to 1 extra bonus document explaining the Space Jockey's world.
-Great music fitting the atmosphere of the setting throughout the document.
-Great artwork along with the explanations.

Enjoy. May you use this setting and explanations in your own games well.

big haul edition

▶What is Kingdom Death?
Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.

▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?
Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.

Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0Ac

The Game is broken up into 3 phases:
1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.
2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.
3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.

Vista edition

>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.

You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I also feel bad for those guys.

I'm building a campaign set in an asian country but I also want to give my players the option to play as their preferred characters without having to make them play as 'lore friendly' OCs.
For example if I set a campaign in China, the military police are gonna be profiling a black netrunner or a white solo with a tourist visa as a potential troublemaker, potentially making it harder for my players to pull off their heist.
Any advice?

I never counted the time during combat unless it is necessary, like rescuing some person before he falls to a vat of acid or wave fights and their in-betweens. We all know time passes in basic mook fights but it is treated like a '[x] seconds had passed' or something like that when combat ends.

Most of my player characters who die are the weak ones who have a low body stat, rather than the stacking modifier.

How do you guys like this game? I’ve read a good chunck of the setting and there are some problems;
> “Everything is fucked…except only the inner rim because the gay space communism in the rim is great”
> consistent dark text on dark background
> HEAVY crunch
I’ve mitigated a bit by using the FATE system conversion and making the setting a bit more nuanced but outside of those the setting seems rather unique. And given it’s all basically free it’s a good deal even with the “in your face” nature of the politics. But what do you fa/tg/uys think?

Somewhere in the middle probably. They are between d20 Modern vehicle rules and D&D constructs. They work, but rules aren't the best. Dragonstar was aiming at space opera/star wars style, but with D&D informing all the actual setting choices.
Which is why I'm sad that we won't get another edition that hammers out the kinks. On the other hand 5e grabby claws also won't get on it, so its not all bad.
