It is the year 199X. Your friends have just sent you a text message to your Nokia 3210, saying they can't make tonight's D&D game.Which of these games do you play, to single-playerly experience that classic 'dungeon crawler' feel?
>>97347722sure, but i was still playing my Mega Drive when i got a Nintendo 64. and that's a blatant 2D -> 3D jump. wasn't even some 'retro' gimmick, just fancied playing Sonic 3 every now and then.3D obviously improved very rapidly but if anything that's even less of a change. look at this, it's Daggerfall but the characters are 3D instead of sprites.
>>97353228Peripherally related, but damn was Morrowind a good game.
>>97348542Sure you'd text in 199x but only in the latter half, was still less common than just calling your friends' house

>>97353760Eh, it's better than I thought, but still not as balanced as just making it temp hp. What you made is largely useless in combat while essentially meaning the party will never be below half hp at the start of any combat.A temp HP scaling d4 at range would probably get more use in combat without breaking out of combat healing
>>97354211>Odyssey of the dragonlordsI ran this, they're big fans of loading the party up with NPCs. I recommend having the NPCs come and go instead. They have a literal god following them around usually but I had her kind of fuck off 90% of the time and come and check in on them sometimes from out of the blue. >Dan coleman's one shotsAll good dungeons with a mix of different encounters. I recommend Bad Apples in particular.>Dungeons of DrakenheimI've heard very good things about it. From what I've read it looks pretty good.Lots of other ones out there. The best thing about 5e is the third party content.
>>97354091I'm not sure it's worse or better in 2024. 2024 is a short rest healing in a box plus a healing buff for spell based healers. 2014 is just a once per rest heal that provides no passive benefits.Multiple characters might want 2024 healer. 2014 healer was only takeable by maybe a Thief.
Anyone willing to look at a homebrew that I'm worried is busted for me? It's intended to be steeped in flavor, rather than abject efficacy. I must also confess that writing something dark, without coming off as an edgy tryhard donut steele retard is very difficult. Also, there is admittedly a massive amount of narrative context that's missing here; trust that it's relevant. The Mastery is a completely intentional choice and I am fully aware of its potential implications. And no, it does NOT require attunement. That hyper-flexibility is a large degree of the power budget of its status as a legendary item.
>>97344587Why does necessity have to get in the way of coziness?Take Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: the stakes are high and your mission is dire (you gotta collect 3 macguffin drops every year to power the macguffin crystal that keeps your village safe from the poisonous Plot Air, failure means your entire village gets wiped off the map) but the moment to moment story is still a comfy adventure of discovery, road trips, new experiences, and the importance of memories. Coziness comes from tone and themes, not a lack of stakes or peril.
After playing both the original Shandalar and the 2016 update version I've come to the conclusion that magic was just more fun in 1995 when it was more loose and relaxed. The kinds of decks you go up against in the 2016 version are so much more ruthless about shutting down every play you make that the only way to compete is to be an even more obnoxious dickhead and make sure they never get a chance to do anything. Every victory was bitter and spiteful in a way that I never felt with the older simpler Magic cards.

>gameplayFor Centaurs, you should be able to use them as mounts when not in combat if they're lightly armed & armored. I think you could ride into battle with them and fight on their back without overburdening them, depending on your loadout. Squeezing into dungeons and caves might be a bit of a bitch, and your centaur companion may find themselves too cumbersome to accompany you in certain locations. If people in wheelchairs can make do, I'm sure a transmog potion or a shrinking potion might solve the problem.>fantasy settingsThey're more at home here for sure, like having a horse. Some taverns may give you a hard "no" for your centaur companion, but I'm sure regions that are steeped in centaur culture or adjacent ones have accommodations for their unique anatomy. If nothing else, they could help carry your camp supplies and other provisions. >loadouts for fantasyIf you're not riding them, I think they can be pretty well armed and armored- think tower shield and a mace/flail. They also make good spearmen, so I think they'd be comfortable wielding a halbard and similar pike-style weapons. This would be with them wearing plate mail cuirass for the human portion and chainmail curtain over their horse hind quarters, or perhaps some specially fitted Gambeson. Other plate sections could be fitted to their horse body as needed. Archery and crossbows seem like they'd work for ranged options. I've not considered them using magic, but having a fairly mobile spellcaster seems cool as well.

So I'm essentially infant new to Vangaurd, like 5 days old new, bought Dear Days 2 because I may or may not be retarded and I don't think I'll ever even attempt to get anything dlc related because of how borderline grossly expensive it is, is there a specific archive or site that has deck recipes for vanilla Dear Days 2? Since most I've seen are rightfully using upgrades decks with the dlc.

>>97352437Yes. It is illegal to use dice as counters in sanctioned events. The official reason is that they cannot be confused with other game elements, and while Dice mechanics are not at all common, they are still a thing that exists. The unofficial reason is because of how easy it is to either cheat, or accidentally roll something like a D20 to a different value.>https://www.yugioh-card.com/en/downloads/penalty_guide/YGOTCG_Tournament_Policy_v_2_5.pdf>Counters must be items that cannot be confused with other game elements. >Items that are overly large, could damage cards or other tournament property, or have graphics or text inappropriate for an all-ages environment cannot be used.>Physical counters are required – the “counter” function in NEURON cannot be used without also using physical counters.>Counters must be added to cards in the appropriate quantity (example: if card effect(s) would place 4 counters on a card, Duelists should add four counters, rather than using a die placed to show “4.” Tradeoff is that you can use virtually anything as counters, as long as each individual counter is represented by an individual object.
>>97350760Ponix!!!! :D
Should I try to get into Yugioh? I just like the art on the cards mostly, but when I read about the gameplay all I see is that its just you lose before you can even start your turn so I'm not sure.

I have a silly question as newcomer: Do you assemble full command set for every unit you field, or how do you decide on that? Here I am sitting on 10 marauder horsemen and I was thinking of having 2 units of five for flexibility, and I really don't know whether each 5 really needs champ, bannerman and musician considering they will harass enemy and die rather easily. I'm not waac fag or anything, but I'm curious of how people do it.
>>97354229I think that depends very much on the context of both the army and how you're dividing your points. I'm also still a newguy, but I think in the case of cavalry you might want to field it in a single unit? I haven't looked that deep into the rules for cavalry, but I'd imagine for a powerful cavalry charge and staying power you might want to keep them together. A champion, musician and banner could in that case help out, especially if you're going to be using these dudes as your main offensive capability.To give an example of when I decided not to use a command set:With my Empire force I get to work with detachment rules, so I gave my main regiment of buffed up halbs two blocks of 10 missile troops as support. I don't expect them to get into melee (although that might still happen), and as two detachments for a buffed up regiment I opted for maximising firepower over giving those small blocks some very minor bonuses in the grand scheme of things.
>>97354229For me I ask myself "is it important this unit wins its combats, and especially the combats that might be close?"If the answer is yes I build command models.Example: I want my block of 15 gors in combats and I want them winning so I build command for the extra combat resolution.I dont care if my ungors with bows with a melee and dont ever expect them to, so I skip command for them
>>97354229Champion and musician are usually good to have on almost every unit. Champ especially is very valuable because of the challenge mechanic. Banners are not worth putting on units units whose role is to slow down and/or harass the enemy. Your enemy gets 50pts for every banner he/she captures so having a banner on a unit of 5 marauder horsemen almost doubles the point you give when they eventually die.
>>97354229Modelwise yes, because I like the look of it. But in terms of rules I wouldn't take banners for chaff or horsemen. The extra CR isn't going to help them in any meaningful way (unless I'm specifically going for some kind of magic banner) and when they inevitably do get killed they won't give out free points like candy. The musician is good on everyone imo.
