>>97197785Nonsense, Andor wears everything it's doing right on its sleeve and delivers its themes directly to you with flowery speeches. The problem isn't that people don't get Andor. The problem is the god awful pacing of Season 2 that makes everything besides the Ghorman Massacre fall flat.
>We will never get a galatic wide showdown between Thrawn trilogy Thrawn and X-wing WedgeI hate this fucking franchise.
>>97204042>you're welcome
I just had a fantastic session and feel great. DMing may be hard, but it's one of the most rewarding things on the planet. We're playing 3.5 after years of 5e, and we're loving it. It's so much more tactically interesting and enjoyable!
>>97200607Based>>97200615Baaaased
>>97201891I'm also running Savage Tide for my kids (20-somethings) adapted to 5E and it's really good. Currently on Serpents of Scuttlecove (The Wreck). I'm building a 3D battlemat for that one right now and hope to finish it this weekend.The campaign as written is pretty brutal, and I tend to be pretty forgiving since the players are not super experienced (and they're my daughters!). But when handled carefully, it's one heck of a ride. :)
>>97203150Holy shit nice! Yeah, I almost TPK'd theme in Bullywug Gambit when I rebuilt a level 6 cleric into a level 7 druid. But they just barely squeaked out a win.
>>97200615How is DMing for 6 people? I feel like I have my hands full with 4.

>>97203995>97203753>>97203753*, I didn't want to rob (you) of a (you).
>>97203995That's pretty much exactly what I want. Jokey or punny names. Unfortunately I'm not good at coming up with funny names. The Ferengi idea is a pretty fun idea though and not one I'd have ever considered. The Grand Nagus is one of my favorite scifi characters.
>>97203152My issue with Cathay is that I think the lore they ended up getting was uninspired, and a massive missed opportunity to boot - especially in the context of TOW.Cathay could have been set up as a series of factions/dynasties controlled by each of the Dragon Emperor's children (each dynasty could pull influence from a real-world Chinese dynasty). The Dragon Emperor determines the ruling dynasty, and that dynasty falls out of power when it loses the Emperor's favour (i.e. losing the mandate of heaven).With TOW being set around the age of three emperors, it would have been a great opportunity to juxtapose the established Empire lore with the new Cathay lore to highlight its differences. Catahy could have been in the middle of one of these dynastic transitions (think Yuan to Ming, or Ming to Qing in the real world), which could have also worked as a justification for having Miao Ying in the Empire, as she could have been earning glory to curry favour with her father.
>>97204022Eh, Cathay is imo a massive piece of shit, but there's still time to reverse course. No idea if they will but there's a lot of potential to do bait and switches. Some of the new teased Cathay models with extremely unsubtle hints of Tzeentchian corruption were positive additions so they are at least setting themselves up for the potential to show us how all the posturing of being a perfect utopia is just propaganda.
>>97203932does it have any peculiar characteristic or role or history?do you have any funny insults from some language other than english?

>>97111856I once ran a campaign like that. >The main premise was that a huge force of pirates starts harassing a crucial world without any reason or clear goal.>Turns out they are Union false flag>As players dig deeper, they learn that Galsim is a sham. It's been giving inaccurate predictions for centuries.>But Union leadership is so indoctrinated into the idea of it being always right they start to "fix" its mistakes by stirring shit in real world to match the simulation.>Players join a military coup and storm Mars facility to switch off the simulation>Destroying the minds causes a new Age of Strife style dark age
>In the game Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou (werewolves) were made to defend the earth from the cosmic forces that threaten to tear it apart. The Garou fight against the Wyrm, the destroyer. It is a struggle against nearly insurmountable odds, especially considering the rivalry between many tribes. These rivalries make it almost impossible for the werewolves to present a unified front against a cosmic force that pervades reality.>From this morass of hatred and mutual betrayal, there is little hope that the Garou can emerge triumphant against a foe so well armed as the Wyrm. The Wyrm promises money, power, sex, and whatever else the heart desires to its followers while the Garou receive no reward for their striving. It drives them deeper and deeper into despair, or into betrayal so deep that they choose to serve the Wyrm instead.Main Rulebooks:>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Rulebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Rulebook>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Second Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Second_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Revised Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Revised_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_20th_Anniversary_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th Edition Corebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_5th_Edition_CorebookComment too long.

Since we're talking about dicks, isn't it creepy that the Garou (and I suppose all the other species too) can seduce anyone with just a look?
>>97199963>Sex in CrinosYou mean the part where everyone but the Garou dies or?>>97200155Every supernatural splat can do this right?
>>97200361>Every supernatural splat can do this right?Yeah, every splat has access to some sort of magical date rape mind control, but the importance of sex and breeding to werewolves makes it weirder when they do it
>>97200548Yeah you do have a good point. I'm pretty sure their society looks down on that sort of stuff though. Never mind their whole spirit shenanigans and prestige thing means they lose aura for needing to do that unreasonably
>>97200155>can seduce anyone with just a lookAnyone can do that. You not being able to is just because you're ugly.

I feel like this edition has alot of objectively bad things about it and is absolutely where the alot of worst qualities of current editions showed up. But I feel like I prefer playing this edition compared to a lot of previous editions and 10th edition. Its a weird transitional period where there's still a lot of the old units that haven't been legended yet while still having the fucking Primaris lot. Its strange but I don't feel like I'm missing out on much staying on this edition and playing with friends casually instead of going back to playing the current edition.
>>97202425Is there any specific inclusions in the 7th edition ruleset that you think would make 8th edition's set better?

AAAAHHHHHARMOR OF CONTEMPT!NO ONE'S EVER BEEN ABLE TO USE THAT BEFORE!>Now, Kaiba, I give my gretchin full rerolls and lethal hits with devastating wounds. OBLITERATE!
It was my first edition of 40k which means I have a biased outlook on it. 8th was very easy to slide into but I can't really say I enjoyed it that much more than 9th (I quit for 30k towards the tail end).Index 8th was very enjoyable but then stratagem bloat, detachment-maxxing, rule of 3 soured the game for me.

>>97198481I was with you until you started behaving just like that Zoomer triggered by Lodoss.Dungeon Meshi, Frieren, GS and even Konosuba are really good shows/Novels and just because you have a chip on your shoulder about Adventurer Guilds and Isekai doesn't make it less true you blithering troglodyte.Konosuba is many ways similar to Slayers in that it lovingly pokes fun at Isekai-Tropes while Slayers poked fun at the Japanese Version of western fantasy.>don't even take inspiration from Fantasy literature like Lodoss didDid you even read the Replay? It was as barebones as it could get, get your head out of your own ass.
>>97198950Let me guess, you watched it back when you were young and all you wanted was "action, action, action" in your anime. You saw that it wasn't all "action, action, action" so you only remember it as boring.Try watching it again now that you are an adult with a different perspective. You might actually realize it has a good story and an actual plot.

>>97203496NTA, but they are fun series. You're free to call them shit, just like others can call your assessment half-assed.
Since the thread is still around I might as well post these:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WVz3gUdfV0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tszy0VRC9sI've never seen the anime, but did jerk off to some of the fanarts before. I've somehow stumbled upon these songs and been listening to them on repeat daily for months now.If there is such a thing as life fuel then this is it.Too ADHD brained and too old and exhausted to sit through an anime now, but will definitely check it out once I muster the strength.Hope you guys enjoy the songs too.

Fish editionWelcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e, BECMI, retroclones NSR and newer) are not OSR should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creator in its first decade — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

It's immediately noticeable that we have finally defeated fishfag, the pro-2e troll that has been force-merging and hijacking threads.How do I know this? He is pretending to be somebody that is not him, and using our own tactics against us. But it will not work because he is a singular malfeasant pest. Ignore him, and remember:2e is off-topic.ACKS is based. Slice of Life / downtime/beach episode sessions are not a bad thing or a bug!
>>97203575Great job defeating the voices in your head, anon. Also 2e is still on topic,
>>97203595Lmao, hi fishfag (original).You still have a very characteristic typing style, both prosaically and grammatically. And no, the LP of this thread very explicitly states that 2E is off topic, and even if it wasn't, it's a garbage game for ESL third worlders anyway.
>>97203808The OP also does not say anything about retarded crying about fishfag yet you keep posting. 2e posting in these thread is never going away no matter what.
>>97203865Except you don't actually post about 2e, you just mention a random subject and then beg others to discuss it for you. Also, why does it seem like every single one of your replies isn't actually in context to what you are replying to? It seems like you are either very ESL or a bad chatbot

>>97195417Neat; I pitch the concept of a Barbarian warlord, with a powerful anti-magic shield, who is obsessed with besieging the keeps of arch-mages so he can smoke these "rock wizards" in a giant crack-pipe, in an attempt to "See God".
