i personally dig it a lot anon! i do think that the hair and the skin being almost the same color does kind of make it very top heavy with the white colors, but it does make a nice focal point for sure (also nice work on the pupils and eyes)

BUt yeah overall a complete human face with hair will just look weird as fuck

>>97368143

Yes. The environmental flexibility of mechs is a huge reason why conventionals are trash. If you live on acid rain sulfur atmosphere mcfucked world, your militia would have custom refits. Otherwise, you ain't hauling that sort of thing in a dropship.

>I might take it a little personally because I think the Hammehead is really cool and getting lumped in by association with the cheesemakers rustles my jimmies a little, since what I mostly want out of it is in a campaign to go hard as fuck into a brawl and stomp some tanks like the world's smallest Banshee (because it is really just a short-stack clan banshee).
but that's kind of why the Hammerhead is so high up in their rankings
The Hammerhead is just pretty much perfect at what it aims to do. Medium mechs seem to suffer at the "high skill" sweaty levels of tournament play, but the Hammerhead doesn't make any real compromises for what it aims to be. It's a heavy enough brick.
The Hammerhead might be favoured at the tournament level, but it's still FUN and thus gets a pass for all levels of play.

I don't think that stunning the player if they lack a card for a combo is the right course of action there. Especially if you're trying to make it like a yugioh combo, the activations would be illegal.

If you want some games with card-based mechanics that you can pull inspiration from,
>Touhou Hisoutensoku/its soku-style fighters
These ones are fighting games where you'd cycle through a deck of cards that you construct before each of the matches begin, where they can either be activated as buffs for the characters' standard attacks, act as supers, or generic effects. Supers used the cards "in your hand" as a cost, and you couldn't put cards back "into your deck" until the round resets.

Given that you're making a MOBA, if you use a system based on this, I'd just make it so you're using a pre-determined set of cards for each character that you can tweak with the shops after the match begins. That way the players have time to edit their builds pre-match, and also allowing them to edit them at the shops when they respawn. Make it so that you can run out of cards and have to go back to resupply to refresh your deck.

>Duelist of the Roses
This one was an old Yugioh TTG on the PS2. Basically you'd draw 5 cards each turn, and you could arbitrarily discard/destroy cards in your hand, using a first-in-first-out system. It's easier to just look up gameplay to wrap your head around that system.

Then there's the DBFZ mod that the other anon mentioned

DotR gameplay

It's likely that neither of these will translate 1:1 to what you're doing, but you can probably extract at least a little bit of inspiration from these.

Tangentially related; If you haven't played either of these, I recommend them. The soku-style touhou fighters have rollback mods available, and have storymodes available in singleplayer (the first two have them for every character while Soku only has it for a few) and Duelist of the Roses has a few good overhaul patches floating around to make it so the gameplay isn't (as) braindead easy.

That also makes sense. It does to little I guess, even for the era. If you don't mind, what about Buster Blader, the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman? Would it be too strong for the "GX-era", again considering just the card with none of the support. With DNA Surgery it could be quite strong, no?

I've written it as such whenever working with stuff for it rules or lore-wise. I figured that's where the Derilect Tripod came from before the campaign map with it entombed in stone came out.

Creative use of first strike. Like, I have no attachment to TMNT beyond "I kinda like a couple of the games and Last Ronin seems cool" so I'm just judging by flavour and mechanics best I can.

This is such a non-issue if you're an adult.
Put some black cardstock over the top and remove them as you enter a new room. Put the cardstock everywhere even if there's nothing underneath. Don't fill the entire table with shit for no reason. And to be extra safe, you go
Hey, i know i can't stop you from seeing the existence of the cardstock, and the dungeon obviously can't go off the table we're using, but just play along, okay? I tried really hard on this.

Even if you wanted to use D&D for this for some reason, you could pretty safely just remove heavy armor, and then make it so any class with proficiency in heavy armor can use Strength in place of Dex when calculating AC for medium armor along with getting the Defense fighting style for free.

Nothing else about the game really changes as a result. Certainly nothing that meaningfully changes the balance of the game anyway.

I didn’t find this myself. I didn’t have a magic weapon until well into level 5.

Not in fantasy, but I did have first contact between two of my sci-fi species be weird because the first thing they did to try and communicate (no universal translators in setting) was send prime numbers to each other.

Except for one species, the first eight prime numbers are:

>1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17
While for the other the first eight are:
>2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19

That's right, one of them considers "1" prime and the other doesn't. Basically the former just don't mind the fact that all of the theorems involving prime numbers have to say "except for 1". The latter think that they're *lunatics*.

So far neither has made contact with any other species so they don't know whether it's common for 1 to be considered prime or not.

>>97367969
You are in no place to give that advice.

>>97372817
yes, but the truly primitive (e.g. piraha) have no concept of time, nor do they care.
as for civilizations, accurate timekeeping has been a relatively recent development. also, most people would probably not have cared much until the industrial revolution and the creation of shift labor.
basically, a a peasant needs to know what day it is, a factory worker needs to know the hour (so that he can start his shift on time), and I need to know what minute it is in order to make it to my next zoom meeting on time.

>In my games setting magic and the technology that would allow for automation can't co-exist, as the chaotic reality manipulating nature of magic would interfere and break stuff purely running on the laws of physics. (not the most original idea, but at least it explains why things have been in medieval stasis for so long)

Fine, I'll bite. How? Since technology is just exploiting natural chemical and motion based principles already baked in to nature. If "thing pushes other thing" suddenly broke down, your entire body would suddenly fall apart in to it's base components.

The real answer is the tainted work of the hand of man thanks to man being sinful. Magic is closer in purity to the uncorrupt world prior to the fall. Also what makes it so dangerous. Much in the same way that anyone who looks upon the Lord would die instantly. Or how touching the Ark of the Covenant would kill someone instantly. Harnessing magic takes extra measures.

>>97373744
Your answer is just as valid as the other anon's.
Neither needs to hold up to scrutiny of rejects from /sci/ or /lit/, because they won't be scrutinised, they're window dressing for a game.

This one: >>97373160

The Imperium could absolutely take Pop Star up until the point Kirby notices and eliminates them. Kirby is EXTREMELY powerful, but he isn't omnipotent (he's actually kind of stupid) and he's quite lazy. Kirby's desire to "solve a problem" is directly proportionate to how much it's personally inconveniencing himself, his lifestyle, or his immediate friends. Once Kirby "locks on" to a problem though, he's like a pit bull: he won't let go until he's completely resolved the situation, as he understands it.

>>97369816
>>97370105
>>97372575

What people don't really understand about Kirby is that his power over Empathy means he has to match power escalation. Kirby, canonically, possess an infinite source of power, but it's entirely reactionary: King Dedede stealing all the food in Dreamland (the province, not the planet/country), and then challenging to a boxing match, is just as much of a "threat" to Kirby as that Gene-Stealing Super Organism in the recent game wot tried to kill Kirby by dropping a planet on the planet he was occupying. These are equally difficult situations for Kirby.

You'll be fine. You got the basics and can work as a good on-the-spot and downtime healer. The stat array is a bit weird but you got +4 on WIS and Heavy Armor will cover the middling DEX/Reflex so I'm not going to judge.
