Have you ever roleplayed a character with a spouse around, not just one that died in their backstory? Did they join in as an actual character and if so, how did your gm balance you having an extra helper?
>>96499819Sorry for your loss.
>>96476838In a Dnd 3.5 West Marches style discord I played a spontaneous retainer to a half-vampire sent on a suicide mission by her family who saw her as a monster (My character didn't know for quite some time). She also outlived several generations of her kin, but had fine control over her thirst (The PC willingly dealt with having penalties).It was the two of our characters in the region, which each region having different groups and DMs. So my character accepted the paying job and status of retainer (Dragon-Shaman and fighter) while they played a bard stormsinger (mf rolled 30+ damage lightningbolts). Our characters combined covered for each other in interesting ways, resulting in the two becoming a power couple in the discord. They also had some drama, but ended up getting together and getting married, with my character learning about her vampiric secret beforehand.Image related, art we got made
>>96476838I don't know, can I have a rundown please?

>>96507885>I'm still struggling how to make Atlan edits, particularly with the aesthetic. Atlanteans are clearly ancient greece with some more fantastic elements, and I like to think New Mu look like ancient iberians or other prerroman peoples plus dinosaurs, but Atlan is more complicated. I ended up going with a mix of fantasy armor art plus some of the images of the atlan book, though I still don't know if it looks well enough.You are feeling my pain. If there was one faction for which we could use an actual artist, it would be Atlan. >>96507890>I'm surprised at how good the walls look.Me too! Made from gardening styrofoam, the material is very easy to crush so I was worried it would turn out like crap, but it cuts very neatly. Cut a 1$ block in 4, put an hex base from the models on it, and just traced an outline with a pen, just that already cuts through. In the end the irregular shape works for it I think. A single block should get you enough for a game (~24). The rest is discounted aquarium plants from the vet. >>96506384Lore and flavour is still in debate, as for gameplay if you have an idea you'd like to pursue, simply mention it, post profiles, or even just give me a picture and some descriptive blurb and I'll come up with something. All actionable knowledge I have on pre-modern Japan comes from Clavell's (the book and the 1980 series), Ruroni Kenshin and if we really stretch, Musashi, so I'd rather wait until some form of cohesion is reached from the various ideas instead of playing lore arbiter, which I don't really like doing anyways.
>>96510055There are bits that could help to make a cohesive aesthetic, but they are difficult to show it through edits alone.Here are a couple of ideas we could use to discuss how Atlan should look.
>>96349471>One idea was Mystery Meat can gain Line Fire by testing awareness at the start of the turn.The way Line Fire works right now, it is not really about setting up a line, you get a better bonus by clumping up 3 guys as close as possible, if you set up a line only one out of the 3 models get a bonus (the middle one). So, maybe you only roll for those who would be able to claim it at the start of the turn? (this would be that it would very much lock you in place). Let me read back up on the current MM before I make a fool of myself commenting on the rest. >>96349576>Another thing i'd like to change is how Einnmannpackungs work.Its much more flexible than the normal ration, it could be worth bumping its price to 3, but I don't necessarily see it as OP (at least, not in comparison to the standard set by Warm Meals being one of the best buffs available in game). I'm more worried about interactions between it and the telephone operator/wireless upgrades than them breaking the game entirely relatively to M/WM. >>96349576>The Vetterli is in the equipment but not on any models.Will fix. >>96349576>Olm-Steeds somehowThe Violonist unlocks them as Beast models but not Mounts, that could be a trait for the Uhlan Captain? The Olm-Wyrm doesn't have a Mount profile, just the one found in the Olm-Men book. The Violonist may not be sufficient to unlock him because its a "get an additional 25 Silver, which can only be spent on ... " clause, the Olm-Wyrm is 50, if you can find a way to skirt the 1x Specialist limit (I don't think there's one in book, at least, maybe through some unforeseen Merc combo) and get it to 2, then you got your Wyrm. Or, also, could be a trait.
>>96510055>>96510055Alright that's good, as much as I like samurai against cavemen, dinosaurs and ex-confederate reavers, in terms of *gameplay* I feel melee and maybe bows doesn't exactly give them a decent edge against groups that wield rotary guns, breechloaders, and artillery. we have the battle of nagashino as a pretty blatant example of how that goes, and bare in mind that was with unreliable rope-lit matchlock knock-offs of Portuguese design. As for reading recommendations, I suggest:>Remembering Aizu: The Testament of Shiba Goro by Shiba Goro This one is about the Aizu domain and what became of it due to siding with the Tokugawa shogunate, it's actually pretty fucked up and really evokes the type of tragic romanticism that the fall of the samurai class system wrought on a symbolic and societal level. The writer was only ten when all this shit went down and was a russo-japanese war veteran who served in the second world war as well.>Ryoma Ga Yuku by Ryōtarō ShibaAnother book that's an account of a participant in the Boshin war, it really tells you what the state of the conflict was like on the ground for most involved.>The Shogun's Last Samurai: The Life of Saigō Takamori by Mark RavinaThis one basically speaks for itself, it's a biography of the Satsuma domain's and Satchō Alliance's likely most skilled general. it also details the events leading up to his insurgency and rebellion.>Japanese Armies 1868–1877: The Boshin War and Satsuma Rebellion (Men-at-Arms)This basically details the equipment, structure and general information of Japan's military forces that are period relevant for Agartha.
>>96507885I've come to imagine them as something that may be best described as "Byzantine Baroque". Generally, the higher up the ranks you go, the pricier the model, the more you move from Classical Greek to Spanish Baroque. The lore in the book is outdated, and a few of the images could use updating.>>96510909I'll make my own Atlan Inspiration Board maybe, get into some specifics. But, to quickly address some stuff here: The mesoamerican stuff was mostly dropped and the start of the Eternal War / split with Atlantis moved up to after the Conquistadors show up; there are no gunpower Atlan units.

>>96509742>Feed all the other Servants to the Grail and claim it as your own.So you have to actually kill each servant and if one is lost, for example due to their master getting eliminated, your run is bricked?
>>96511330Maybe you can summon another or some other servant is worth extra like Gil.
>>96506118I'd be a few more jumps in if I could find ones I like, with hot waifus and perks that fit my kinks. Or maybe I'm too picky. I'm the guy always begging for harem perks on these threads.
>>96511330No. It goes like this>Holy Grail Manifests>7 servants summoned by thr Holy Grail, each servant gets a master who summons them and guides them>When a servant dies, their spiritual energy and mana go into the grail>When 6 servants die, the Holy Grail physically manifests>Magi usually kill the 7th servant too by making them kill themselves so that the Grail will have more energy>You take in the raw mana of the grail and you can make a wish if you know how to harness the mana and shape it to your will>The issue, however, is that the Holy Grail is tainted with all of the world's evils, so if you use it, their will be massive backlash and maybe even an extinction level event>Ergo the best course of action is actually to DESTORY the grail with a mountain busting attackNow to answer your question about a master dying? If the master dies, and the servant is still alive, then the servant must find a new master to supply them with mana or a way to sustain themselves with their own mana. If they can do neither, then they will die, and their energy will go into the grail
>>96508505>>96511330Your run is NOT bricked but if you are not KILLING everyone you are not even TRYING.

>>96505565About the same as the other factions but you have to meta game a lot more than the other factions. You have to be willing to take a loan and have an IMF intervention in order to get the other players to not take advantage of you. The IMF loans are the nuclear option that should be avoided by everyone but they hurt non-government players much more than government so you should hold your finger over the button.

>>96506929Yes, you're the enlightened centicistist. Very intelligent.
>>96506719You're bothered by pro-white racially conscious people on your board? Traditional games are the white man's hobby.
>>96498419I understand varg is a successful musician and may be really good at that, but when it comes to like fiction and worldbuilding I think guys like Varg are too in love with existing tropes and genres to be actually good at those fields of art.He loves existing forms and ideas too much so he's not going to be motivated to do anything particularly interesting with them. He just wants to replicate what he already likes. Tolkien to take an example of someone often loved by this broad type of guy wasn't like this. "I want to write the equivalent of the Iliad for a world I made up for my elaborate conlangs to exist in, except the technology level and general world will be drawn from early midevil europe instead of ancient greece" was not a done to death set of ideas. Varg just loves a certain combination of fantasy tropes and historical romanticism he has already seen and just wants to do them again. At most the innovation is to filter out whatever doesn't resonate with his precise personal autism and put all his favourite tropes densely side by side. Its more like being a collector than an artist. Its actually a mindset very suitable to like wargaming, cause you can just pick "your guys" from the setting or history and its fully in the spirit of the thing to just replicate your idea of them. "I'm painting a christian force from the first crusade" benefits from and will be more enjoyable the more awed and obsessed you are with that thing or a certain idea of it, there's no reason to try and develop on the concept if you don't want to.
>hyperboreaI mean, there's already a hyperborea game that is 'based' on adnd1e and features a lot of the fantasy racism (subraces that are inferior, women getting raped and such in the modules) im not sure why this lo-rent slop needs to exist.
Wizards are powerful, but nothing beats the feeling of picking up a big stick or a big metal stick and beating a monster to death with it.

There are no keyword abilities.These operations can be understood by referring back to these posts about the relationship between Frenopolis and Chess:>>96450656>>96450886The card effects are movements/interactions between the types/zones which correspond to the elements which comprise a section of the color pie. Archive - Move a card to the Archive."Move a card to Earth/Yellow"Banish - Move a card to the Void (Exile)."Move a card to Air/Grey"Conceal - Move a card face up to the bottom of a Soul (Deck).Comment too long.

Transmuting:Transmuting is a very simple but very strategically important operation. To Transmute a card, you simply move it a new type-zone.For example to Transmute a Structure into an Entity, you just move the Structure to the Entity Zone.1.) Transmuting allows you to move cards in and out of range of the player's effects. For example if the other player has effects which are powerful against Structures, if you Transmute your Structure into an Entity, it's no longer vulnerable.This works in the reverse direction as well. If you have effects which are powerful against Structures, but the other player only has Entities, you can Transmute their Entities into Structures so you can affect them.2.) In terms of the Thread, a Transmutation occurs by Projecting a card Type as a new Type. This means that the card:-Must resolve again on the Thread-Becomes a new cardThis means that its stats and any per-turn limitations are also reset, because it is a new card. This allows you to "heal" cards by resetting their stat, and also gain additional effect output.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>96498409These are the most basic operations.The terms are the equivalent to MTG/YGO "destroy", "banish", "summon", "cast" etc.1.) Archive - Move a card to the Archive (graveyard).2.)

>>96510176Tetsuya is Tetsuya is Tetsuya. He doesn't see his Idolon as any different from himself; exactly the same being. Of course, when he Possesses his Idolon, he feels braver. He finally actually has power for once, after all, and he hungers for more. ...But are his insults finally being said clearly and not under his breath because power reveals, or because of his Idolon? Of course, his Idolon just sits idly in front of the door when not being possessed, merely watching or sleeping without uttering a sound... When shit hits the fan, he panics on the inside... but also revels. He always feels like he CAN win. He's extremely overconfident as an Idolon, and he feels unbreakable.

>>96510176In Ai’s case, the distinction is all but null. Her Idolon is her, stripped of restraint. It doesn’t really alter her behavior so much as make it explode outwards.Ai doesn’t experience the Idolon as an external influence, she doesn’t “notice” changes because it feels like she has always been that way.She’s already obsessive, grotesque, violent when pressed, and incapable of stepping outside her fixation on Shu. The Idolon isn’t something she resists, more like the opposite, it’s something that validates what’s already there.Her whole system of values is warped. The only true crisis is if something threatens Shu.All her capabilities, strength, resistance, and capacity for grotesque violence turn outward, because for Ai there is no such thing as self-preservation. There is only Shu-preservation.
