>>97360211You know what, You are right. We should actually discuss our chains. Currently in my chain I am rewriting the first jump because the first and second jump stories were kind of mid. Not terrible but not good. Sadly writers block and lack of energy is kicking my ass. My jumper is in Gargoyles and bought a Pharmaceutical company that was the remnants of not-Umbrella after they were sued to oblivion and there is about to be an outbreak of man made monsters because a nosy protester sets something loose so my jumper who currently has no combat abilities is going to have to go hat in hand to beg the Gargoyles for help. Also no they aren't going to sleep with Demona. A+ looks, D- personality.
>>97360424Pretty much, yeah.>>97360437I'm doing a mecha chain, again. It's my eightieth one.Started in Railroads because spending fifty years as an engine driver's a good way to get used to long periods of time doing nothing, and the Casey's Cannonball and Unstoppable perks are amazing for a mecha chainThen I hit up Armored Core 4 for Human PLUS and Lightning Bruiser, forcing me to deal with corporate greed and turning me into a small frail loli that can't exert herself all that well.Third was Bubblegum Crisis for Master of War, where I kludged together a piece of shit mecha out of random junk I found in the dumpster and robbed a bank, then got pressganged into working for the local policeI hit up Lost Planet afterwards to get my first actual mech, the PTX-40A Hardballer. It's an absolute garbage mech that can lose against a moderately skilled martial artist, but all my buffs push it to a pretty nice levelThen I hit up Zoids for Metalmending to fix up my Hardballer where I ended up becoming a Zoid VeterinarianComment too long.

>>97360467Might need to slot in System Shock 1 before AC 4, to pick up a bunch of it's cybernetics as biological alternatives.The Biological Systems Monitor would be helpful for ensuring I get the maintenance I'll need in AC4, the Navigation and Mapping Unit and Target Identifier are nice to have in general, and the Environmental Protection Suit would protect me from airborn contaminants, which is important when you're a small sickly loli.Also, the Multimedia Data Reader would give me something to do on long guard missions, and possibly a way to control my mech without needing physical controls. Cortex Reaver would let me do stuff while fucking around with my Data Reader too

>>97358280>you don't get to play as the avatar and his team>instead you play as a random band of adventurers doing random things Only a nogames would think this is not only an issue, but isn't expected and the norm.
>>97358280>you don't get to play as the avatar and his teamYou're not forbidden from doing this, but you're heavily discouraged from doing this. It literally makes someone the main character, in terms of the plot, and heavily unbalances consequences between players.>instead you play as a random band of adventurers doing random thingsYou say that like it's a bad thing. But it's not quite correct. What you do is be a band of people (who are capable of fighting) who are trying to be the good guys, and you go do good guy things. What kinds of things is up to you, but it leans into Avatar's world for its setting details and history to give you a backdrop and themes to play off of. Also, you're all assumed to be youths (unless you're the Mentor playbook), and your personal mess is defined by the two opposing principles that your character values, but hasn't made up their mind about, which is very thematic for characters in Avatar.

>>97359404>thematic and restrictedSo much this. I want to skim an 'army book' of a game Im familiar with and immediately pick up on which faction it is because they're all distinct in fun and meaningful ways. The worst games are ones where you cover names and show me stat lines and abilities and I have no clueApart from the rampart series and similar where it's designed to let you make yourdudes yourway with what you might have on hand of course
can anyone recommend some tanks for the human defense force in one page rules? i like the progression from infantry to walkers but i feel like the tanks don't fit
Anyone have the fan rules for Dimensional Warfare: Tactics? It's the Robotech RPG Tactics spinoff game. I want to see how they rewrote the transformation rules. >>97358231They should not have gotten rid of the old site. They had painted examples that weren't transferred over. They used submitted images of painted models they didn't have a 'studio paintjob' for. The forum was ancient, but it had examples of nearly every model they made, and it's all gone now. And they lost their detailed tags.
>>97359404Thats a decent idea, i think heresy has a system like that, a core force org, then your added leaders or warlord add extra flexibility to army construction. Could be a good way to add some variance. I've always wanted a bike character to unlock more slots for bikes. Still doesn't help me with the immediate issue of balancing wargear, model, and unit costs, but I'll highly consider adding that in.>>97359022I've never actually looked into Battletech's tonnage system, but I'd assume it's similar to a points cost where the size of your mech is X tons, and each big gun you strap on to them is Y tons, up to a Z limit or something like that.>>97359718I've got 9 factions with 10 units plus 1 named character for each as a start. Each faction has 3 Leaders, 2 Troops, 2 Vanguard, 2 Mobile, and 2 Support units, and I've attempted to make sure that each faction from the start can at least do everything everyone else can.Some Factions are much better at certain game aspects than others are; The super shooty army isn't the best in melee, but has units that can still hold their own. I tried to make sure that each faction leans into their own theme, but multiple playstyles can emerge from each faction based on what you like to play.With leaders possibly offering different force org combinations, that opens up even more potential for army variance, but I still need a points system. I might just have to bite the bullet and figure out some arbitrary way to give costs to things. That'll bump up playtesting time a whole lot longer, for sure. In my playtest games, I've had both players start with an equal number of bases for each side, and it's worked out decently well for a "half-sized" game, the armies are mostly equivalent in power at that size of game, but I don't think it'll fly for a hyper-elite army or horde army playstyle. If both players get 50 "bases" worth of models, the custodes player will overrun the genestealer cults player every time.
>>97360544Tonnage is literally just how much the total unit weighs, and is completely worthless for balance because it only indicates what the target weight for that unit was when it was being designed, not whether it used that weight for anything practical or suitable for mech vs mech combat. Some designs are better suited to fight infantry or aircraft, and other designs are just bad both in and out of universe.
Could it work in a /tg/ context? Say you used the Damaging Objects rules from the d20 System.
>>97353484Because the gimmick is somewhat weak. Hardware limitations made destruction more impressive at the timeThat being said everyone likes being needlessly destructive sometimes so maybe I'm not thinking big enough
>>97344262>retard doesn't know what the word limitation means
>>97359396It's not a gimmick. It's just something that can happen.

>1eGonna be playing strange aeons with my friends. The party is a barbarian, mesmerist, and a witch. I was looking at the oracle. The thematic suggestions are dark tapestry, lore, and time. As a first time oracle I was curious which of these I would have the least amount of trouble with.

Finally started putting pen to paper on my 9th set, and I think I may have created the worst card in any game ever.Wheel Gator, Evil Fanged Heavy Tank150 PowerTrigger: When you take damage, both players add their hand to the bottom of their deck, then charge that many cards.For clarification "charge" is put those cards into a pile you draw all of next turn. So it empties both players' hands, then they draw up to their old hand size at end of turn.
>>97358446Isn't that just an activated ability?
>>97359982What happened with Vanguard? I used to play back before the second reboot.>>97360202>I mean when you fuck it up like Altered TCGWhatever happened with that?

Warlord said they *should* be prepping to ship out pledges soon. Looking forward to seeing what's in this 'chest.'
>>97360305Okay so in a nutshell>Original Kickstarter smashed it out of the park 7 million dollars for a 60,000 dollar goal>Releases 4 more sets afterwards>boxes of first set only need 1 or 2 boxes for a complete set of lower rarity cards and only need to buy singles of higher rarity so most don't bother buying boxes >LGSes asked to host events for the card game but the main distributor for the cards are the online shop so the physical stores can't make any profit selling the boxes for markup because no one will buy it there when they can just buy it online>newest kickstarter set seeds of unity originally has a set goal of 50k, easily hit>whoa whoa WHOA hold on a minute, we actually meant the goal was 2.5 MILLION dollars for our crowdfund! We can't print the set unless we get our 2 mill!>people cancel preorders and spread the word that the game is dying >crowdfund falls short, damage control by creators, "we didn't meet our goal but we will still ship the set, in the future we will have to readjust our production line"All in all, their booster box prices are crashing HARD and it's in meltdown mode. People want to sell out before all interest dies. Not sure if they can recover honestly.It might be fun to buy if they end up being like $5-10 in the future just to crack packs
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.
>>97354269Who are you quoting?
Same applies to a lot of TCGs. This is why games like YuGiOh were best before a certain set, even outside of card balance. Your deck was the best with what you had, and you made it work. But it's ok because the people you are playing against are also (usually) playing the same way.Now they print cards that arent just stronger, but clearly being made for a specific meta purpose.
>>97358140>You could literally skip your first couple turns and not die. Unthinkable now.There have been tournament matches where somebody surrenders from their opening hand. Who enjoys a game like that?

>>97359435I agree with the other poster, what a daft thought exercise. Probably the worst thing I could think of already happened anyway with Lion pardoning The Fallen, removing anything interesting they and the DA had going. I haven't kept up with nu-lore mostly due to this stupidity, but what drives the Angels now? Are they still all secretive and still race away from engagements, or what's their shtick now?
>>97359530They're still searching for Fallen, but Lion does the initial investigation. If he decides they were cool, they become a Risen. If he decides they were a nigger, then he lets the Interrogator Chaplains do their thing. The Dark Angels are doing what they normally do. The Lion is doing his forest walk thing to put out fires in Nihilus.
>>97355569Fuckin forgot to post before I went to bed. Sorry for leaving you hanging.My personal experience boils down to a single utter shitshow of a game which didn't even last a session, because the GM quite literally opened with "Okay so you're all on a spaceship and you want to go do some heresy, there's three planets nearby, a forgeworld, an agriworld, and a hiveworld, pick one and then go kill some people." The situation devolved from there. Note the distinct lack of "who are your guys and what are their motives, why are you all working together, what's your objective" in there. An hour in and nobody's mentioned my name once, the GM clearly doesn't care to go into enough detail to make tech-use applicable, so I mentally check out, lower the volume to something less distracting, and go finish a video lecture. Get up for a bathroom break, come back, the server's fucking gone. I ask my buddy, another player, what the fuck happened, and he just says "Sometimes you gotta rip it out root and stem, man."Now that's just a shit GM being a shit GM, but it's representative of a subset of people who are only there to do lolrandom dumbfuckery. Black Crusade attracts those like flies, because they see "this game is about being horrible evil chaos bastards" and they think "oh, finally, a game for me!" They don't want to engage with the game as it's meant to be played, they want to use it as an excuse to act in ways that are unacceptable at a table, and they think the subject matter gives them that excuse. Y'know, like FATAL.This is not exclusive to the lolrandoms, either, but I'm fresh out of brain juice so I'm just gonna tell you to imagine That Guy, think about what makes him That Guy, and think about whether he thinks he could use Black Crusade as an excuse for being That Guy. I'm telling you, man, it's like flies. And it's fucking shameful, because the careful political aspects of balancing a chaos warband are actually a compelling premise.
I've seen different artistic renditions of the Emperor but what is cannon? Have the last 10,000 years on the Golden Thrown mummified him or is He still soft flesh and blood?
>>97359179I really enjoyed starting Iconoclast in the game because it was giving me the options, and then watching myself slowly becoming more Dogmatic over time as the reality set in. That was a really cool bit to have.
