that's because they're commissioning nothing new from what I can see, it's all screen grabs and posters the whole way through. Too bad they can't draw from the comics, there was a lot of material they could use there.

>>97263005
Yeah. Game honestly feels in a pretty weird spot where board and gameplay wise you'd think it would be a board game or at most an LCG but the Japanese addiction to gacha means no, it has to be a tcg, you will open packs looking for the golden foil signed $1000+ dollars cards and you will like it.

>>97261694
>People don't stay invested for whatever reason.
To be fair, people have barely been given the opportunity to be invested. The first English release was basically a self-sabotage shitshow (insert conspiracy theory here for why) and the second release they scrubbed as much of the brand's iconography as possible that was already proven successful in Japan.
All they gotta do is actually bring "Duel Masters" over and not whatever localized abomination Hasbro wants them to.
I agree with that Anon earlier saying that if they bring it over again they should get Takara Tomy to do it. WotC/Hasbro has got no fucking idea how to market a Japanese game.

I too want to hear the deets on this, what have those trench degenerates been doing?

Anon from >>97227184
First of all, thank you to everyone that replied. Secondly, I’d like to ask for any suggestions for interesting ME terrain I could build. I’m working on houses and a water tower at the moment, and plan on making a Saddam-esque statue as well as a ruined temple, but what else could I make? Specifically I’m looking for something that can fill a gameplay niche. For example, the water tower acts as 360 elevated terrain for a sniper, the temple works as a place for scattered terrain, and the houses act as two story/cqb/hard cover. I want to make an apartment/skyscrapper, but I’d like to things 1930’s or earlier and I’m not sure how common or what styles of those things existed in the region at that period.

>>97263429

Terrible Idea: How about when you stabilize a creature it gains 1hp

>>97263493
yeah that's also possible but it's a cleric with spare the dying, i dont wanna make stuff obsolete

maybe "as an action you can bring a stable creature to 1hp"

The concept of copying spells is rendered a bit underwhelming by the fact that every spell you could scribe is one you could have picked at level up.
Imagine if you only ever catch pokémon that were starters or that you chose from after beating each Gym.
If you want there to be rare or forgotten spells to discover, something I think is a fantasy arising from the mechanics, the DM needs to put in all of the work.

>Exactly 0% of Combat professionals will miss a shot at point blank range against a target that's standing still. Meanwhile every single D&D character will fail to hit a straw dummy with a stick 5% of the time.
NTA but you don't roll an attack to hit a dummy. You don't roll for things that don't have a reasonable chance of failure or success. It's right there in the DMG. Probably in the PHB too and nowhere is it implied that hitting a stationary inanimate object has any chance of failure unless we are taking into account extreme range or low visibility. Even if such conditions exist in the scenario of a shooting range with no distractions you can just use the take 10 rule. I would, and if that wasn't enough I would call for a roll or a take 20 depending on the situation.
>Take 10 is only possible if you are not distracted.
Yes. Because if you are distracted you can fail, spectacularly even, in things that you wouldn't otherwise. This isn't strange or peculiar. A short distraction can turn your every day drive to work to a fatal car accident. It happens.
>Yes they are, they are even given explicit DCs
Set DCs don't necessarily imply rolls.
>There are also instances like walking across a 2x4 that the average level 1 commoner can't beat even if they take 10
In 3.5? I don't think so. They will have to have a dexterity score lower than 10 and there is no RAW to achieve that on average.

>>97248672
>Yes it is, the average is 10.5
No it isn't, the average is around 13. With either 4d6 drop the lowest(PHB) or point-buy(DMG). Of course if you are using point-buy the average score is meaningless.

Actually go fuck yourself.

I think no one but practitioners should know exactly HOW magic works (and I mean the specific effect desired by the magic-user) and no one should know WHY ir works (but different traditions and cultures should have their own beliefs and explanations). This should be enough for the players and GM to inform the roleplay.

As a game resource, spells should be rare enough to be special but available enough to be considered useful.

Another aspect I very much enjoy is increased randomization of effects. Should a character choose to relinquish control of the effect (or forced to do by circunstance), shenanigans ensue, which is always entertaining.

>>97250122
AC is only reliable if your enemies do no have intelligence or DM doesn't use NPC WBL. Otherwise fucking over armor and shield AC is very cheap.

>INCLUDING enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that...
Anon, that's definitional "Inclusive" language, not exclusive. Mental compulsions as a whole are block and ongoing enchantments are just one example.

>>97263089
>>97263044
>>97262467
as per the 3.5e FAQ:

What exactly does the second effect of protection from evil do, anyway?

[...] The key phrase that defines this particular effect of the spell is as follows: “ . . . the barrier blocks any attempt to . . . exercise mental control over the creature (including enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject . . .).”

[...]

The first part of this phrase describes the basic criteria by which the DM should judge protection from evil’s effect: If the incoming effect attempts to exercise mental control over the creature, protection from evil likely suppresses that effect. The parenthetical portion of the phrase provides two specific examples (pointed, obviously, at rules elements of the Player’s Handbook) to help judge what exactly is meant by that:

1. Enchantment (charm) effects. Simple enough--protection from evil automatically suppresses any enchantment (charm) effect, such as charm person or enthrall.
2. Enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject. This is where adjudication gets trickier, because you have to decide what “ongoing control” means. The Sage recommends a broad definition, which includes any non-instantaneous effect that prevents the target from exercising full control over its own actions.

Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>97263308
Personally, I would rule more narrowly than what the Sage advises. As a DM I draw a strong line between the spell granting the caster control of the player, and the spell itself controlling the player. A target rendered confused, as the spell, isn't more susceptible to the requests of the caster, unlike a charm target. Otherwise, Protection From Evil renders the target near-impervious to almost anything mind-affecting, which is too much for a 1st-level spell.

I legit hate the way autists and normie scum consume media. It's like a swarm of locusts swooping down and consuming everything in sight. Any kind of nuance or mystery needs to be explained through endless sequels, prequels, and midquels. There's no more interpretation, speculation, or fan works anymore. Just lurch on to something new if the franchise is enshittified beyond recognition or there's nothing new to consume for more than a year.

Like, sit down and think about it logically; the Redeemer Queen should be exactly about that, redemption. She encourages her followers to accept those who wish to integrate back into society. She sends out men and women who are inspired to heal the isolated and restore purity to the corrupted. This sounds a lot like Shelyn but who fucking cares anymore, the pantheon is full of derivatives.

Nah. No. None of that. We're not getting any of that. Instead, the Redeemer Queen is about, like, ending slut-shaming and providing a Safe Space for poets and whores. What does she Redeem? Nothing. It's like Paizo doesn't even know what that word means; taking the isolated and restoring them in the eyes of others. Nocticula isn't about saving sluts, she's about giving sluts a street where they can celebrate being sluts. All the while she's in a lesbian relationship because of course she is, and her portfolio has all the male gaze of a cemetary.

Currently, a fierce armed conflict is taking place in this area of the world between the Confederation of Anukie Tribes (deer people) and the Great Roblon Grove (tree people).

And although the Roblones initially had the numerical advantage, since the Anukie began summoning the Yahui (Fire Serpents), the balance of power has shifted in their favor.

The reason the Anukie haven't won yet is because it takes 100 sorcerers and a sacrifice to summon a single Yahui, which can only be summoned at night because sunlight is harmful to them.

while the assistance of the Muzenkab (bee people) as infiltrators and spies among the Anikie to obtain information for the Roblones has kept the weight very balanced.

The setting is undergoing a Protestant Reformation in the south. The colder parts of the League are gravitating towards hardcore reformed denominations with predestination and strict communal hierarchies. The warmer parts either like the Church or just want to stop its political dominance, similar to England during the reign of Henry the VIII. The Papal State wants to maintain its dominance and plays up the threat of the Caliphate that is looking more and more like a paper tiger.

I liked the 'masquerade' element of it. The masses should not know about the Gods. This is, of course, something that could very well change during the course of the story your players are telling, but at a base level, the Gods should be underground and subsisting off what are essentially worship scraps while they get their scions to do things for them in mortal world.

>>97263453
Fair take. The masquerade's orders of magnitude superior if the devs aren't willing to go all in and actually change things up and engage with the concept of the gods being real and being active.
