Lgs gripe thread?>if you have bluk for people to go through, either go off tcg player, or have a minimum price per card>do not do bothAll you are doing is making me not want to buy from you when i have to wait for you to scam them on your phone and then charge me almost twice what your phone said
>>97211984>Having space dedicated to TCG aftermarket at allThat's just dumb at this point. You aren't going to compete with online pricing, you are eating up space that could be used for stuff that actually sells. Have a small spot for boosters and precons, that's it.
>please put prices on your stuff. I should have to sit and wait for you to look up Catan on ebay or whatever to see if it's magically become $100 before you let me buy it.
>if you are going to charge me to use the tables, give me a bag of chips or something for free>there are three other game stores in the area that don't charge for table space give me a reason not to go to them
I quit playing at my local store because they would only charge dnd players to use the tables.Magic players? Tabletop players? War gamers? Come on in have a seat no charge.Dnd players? That'll be $5 a person.I asked the store owner about it and he said it was because they were officially sanctioned by wizards of the coast.My guy i guarantee you that my dms story about harvesting slimes because they are his world's replacement for weed is not a official event.
>>97212226If you are an official WotC D&D spot, they require you to buy a bunch of shit for organized play events as well as other odds and ends. Often, there aren't enough players to cover the cost of those OP event materials, so smaller LGS spread the cost to all D&D players by having them all buy table space. Your thought is probably "Why don't they just not be an official spot then?" (Mine was) and that's because you have to agree to be one for X amount of time. You find out your draw is a fraction of what you expected, you still have to keep paying. It's one of those situations where it's best not to get involved with WotC in an official capacity. Games Workshop has some dumb fuck requirements too which is why small stores that start doing WH stuff might have heaps of shit they can't unload because local markets don't want to spend that much on WH stuff but they have to keep buying it anyway.Gameshops often do better by avoiding getting involved with WotC or GW in any official capacity if they are smaller joints. Then again, game shop owners are usually (not always) some of THE dumbest mother fuckers on the face of the planet.

two new players, three long time players. we were supposed to do a new one-shot. Everyone just kinda... sucked?

Test.
If I bend the rules and let the Witch have Meta content as long as it doesn't make her stronger, I can let her take the Comfy Pocket perk. A Pocket Dimension proceeds at infinite speed as long as its user is inside of it, but freezes once they leave. Someone has to choose between either being there forever, or eventually leaving. A Witch doesn't have that limitation if she turned into a hivemind with Doll+, letting her stay both inside and outside of it. Now she gets to have infinite time inside the pocket dimension while still existing outside of the pocket dimension where she can throw more Sons inside of it. It gets even better. The infinite fractions between each second are even longer than the regular infinity of being somewhere forever, which is ℵ0, there's 2^ℵ0 of them. That's double the infinity! Every Son added to the dungeon instantly lives through more than infinite years of unholy deviantart hell instead of a few decades or centuries. It's sort of like "The Jaunt" if it were written by BTGanon instead of Stephen King. And as long as his experience inside of the timeless pocket dimension is a net positive, he's still not going to be euthanized by daddy no matter how much humiliation and mutilation he goes through. The comfy pocket dimension is now a utility monster, every soul thrown into the pocket gets to have an infinitely long stay inside of the Sanctum where they will be safe from all the bad and evil things inside of normal time. A Son would only refuse to go inside of the Pocket dimension and abide by the landlady's rules if he was a hypocrite, where the stakes are so high that she now has a moral obligation, per the utilitarian ethics of the Sons, to apprehend him and save everyone who's still inside of his sanctum.

Sovl=boxnaughtCuck chair=diaper dread, generalsDiaper dread was the biggest mistake of 40k. Literally made me quit the game. I remember seeing the 2nd ed metal box dread with its bamner and it was pure undiluted sovl. Made me join the game. Some cuckoldry was afoot when they deleted the banner in 3rd. Dread with marine head introduced the bull to us. Venerable dread was the cuck chair in the corner, and diaper dread is asking your wife's boyfriend for a new switch game in exchange for good boy points.
Moloch's Fun Park Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/.

>>97206915>>97206294Late response but Shovels are equipment, not weapons. Equipment only take up a hand if they explicitly say so in their description. Shovel does not. This is intended as the whole point of them being allowed to be used in melee is making units with them and no other melee weapons. Marid shovel is the budget melee option for Brazen Bulls that just wanna sit back and bombard.

Tolkien is to blame for the state of 5e and generic fantasy that you see in TTRPGs. We wouldn't have horrible big fat fantasy books, nor power fantasy / wish fulfilment, which you find in scaling levels through so-called "XP". Fantasy used to be an experimental, creative, and wild genre filled with mad imagination; now, it is all wooden and samey. >tl;drListen to this:https://voca.ro/1Rwc7lMX0hfT

>>97208350Nah, the problem three things.Women making "romantasy" so they can be raped/fucked by every supernatural being. While pushing they're a strong independent feminist woman. (Don't believe me look up "Milking Farm.")The market going woke and basically denying the main group of people who read and wrote fantasy access so they can push gay/women/poc writers who make the most cookiecutter shit for the cash grab. (It's a black woman knight in full european fantasy armor. Not african, not some custom made up shit. Just basic bitch european fantasy everyone seen before but it's a strong black woman MC. Also there is racism for no reason but because white people are racist even though they have black nobles and the queen and king are black or something.Lastly you got anime/manga/light novels stealing "western fantasy" lunch. Though that's more of you have to sell your shit to keep going. You can't just make flop after flop and stay there. Even manga "flops" tend to be good just not the same level as the big hitters. Plus they facing more than just "fantasy" so you have to be the cream of the crop to stay. Where the west will make a serious show about some woke fantasy bullshit and then be shocked NO ONE watched/read the fucking thing cause it looks like a fucking joke. Hell remember they made a show about the king of england being a gay black crippled and it was a joke or parody. They thought that was a good idea.

Anybody figured out how to play Grandracmon? All he seems to be doing is kill your own things to evolve for free, to then play something else from trash? What's even the point? He doesn't really make the board any bigger. Its such a weird line. Just like bt9, Dracmon seems like such a great card, but then everything around it doesn't really function the way you think it should.

I've got pulpshit fatigue. Fantasy comic bookiness and pulp are beyond tiresome to me. Ugly as shit art, retarded as shit plots, dumbass pulp tropes like one dude solos an army of 50000 and makes a Marvel quip. Always some dumbfuck scifi or lovecraftian content thrown in too. I want grit, realism, and down to earth plots. I want characters who act like real people, not capeshit actors. I want a plot with substance, not mindless style. I'm sick of it all, everything from Howard to Warhammer to Stench Crusade. Any other fatguys feel the same?>pic related: dog shit pulp warhammer comic from the early 00s

>>97206674It's really hard to try to balance out the railroading, openness and unpredictability for me.There's exciting moments, but it never coalesces into a congruent narrative and it takes a lot of time and effort to get going.I'm currently in a campaign where I've basically had 3 objective failures and I had to roll for my life just to get out alive. The objective just keeps getting further away from me and it's draining to try to keep the story on track when rolls and random tables just won't cooperate.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started.

>>97212347No, but my friend is borrowing my ACKS books during the holidays cause he wanted to check it out while I am out of town during this time off. Might get him to DM a few sessions of ACKS in 26
>>97208768I have a group of maybe 4-5 players besides me running the game. I wanted to run a series of lose adventures with maybe an overall theme of time periods merging more rapidly and thaumagorga causing more chaos and war. I suppose I am not entirely sure how to set it up, but it was going to be a longer set of games. So far I have planned out a giant bee hive dungeon of forcefully evolved bees, escaping a demon cultist infested town during some corrupt holiday, finding buried treasure and escaping a fucked up island, and a whole ww1 battlefield that has become a shitshow as it got brought into hyperborea.
