Christmas edition▶What is Kingdom Death?Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0AcThe Game is broken up into 3 phases:1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97276676Murder i find objectionable because (iirc?) it targets your most experienced returning survivor? That's always a really fucking obnoxious kick in the balls.I could deal with some random schmuck being done in just fine but the star hunter is annoying.Assuming my memory isn't faulty we once had murder happen, the murderer got caught, and we got the option where they become the undisputed murder king (queen in that case) of the settlement. That was fun. But>survivor with the most hunt xp dies.Will never not be annoying.
>>97277026>>97276969Yes the actual target of it is bad, and yes it's just a card flip.And yes the "add event in x years" is awesomeBut the first thing is just a balance thing, like it could be "the lowest XP kills the highest XP, add takes half his xp/split his xp between the other survivors that catch the murder" it can be made fineand for being a card flip, I see it as a settlement inevitability, it has settlement consequences, even if it's a card flip, it's a thing that can happen and it's how that affects your settlement/story, and what they do about it, it leads to something, it's a storybuilding effectI would be fine with a card that says "the oldest person over X hunt xp in the settlement, has died of old age", things happen, what does your settlement do about itI wouldn't be fine with a random event saying "if you are old over X hunt xp you die"
>>97276969>>97277026>>97277501Could do what community edition did and say "when you draw this card, put it on the timeline for next year" so you have time to bring out your most valuable survivors.

the paid dm defenders have always said they help people with no friends, but the last few months they are being promoted as>fun for friends>give your dm a break>let your group try a new systemim talking ginny d, reddit, forum posts, irl in-store. in all seriousness will people fall for this instead of having one of their friends dm
>>97280753>People don't compare a home made meal with a restaurant dish, if you friend knit a sweater you're not comparing it with a store bought one, if you grow a tomato just being edible will impress you.While your comparisons are correct, I can say that I have heard from a DM friend of mine that there are indeed people that say things like "Why can't you be like [x]" or "This isn't how [x] would do it".when comparing their current game to another one they're paying for. And while they could be lying, I do see quite a number of places online that seem to convey the opinion that DMs basically exist to cater to the players, and not to take a specific role in a group game, so a paid dm experience might be seen as more...I don't want to use the word normal, let's say more [expected] than you or I want to believe.
>>97280641If we're gonna talk seriously, I think a big part of GMing is setting the tone. Be it roleplay heavy, interaction first, over the top, the GM is talking more than most players so how they present things and what they reward with attention will guide everyone else into what type of "fun" the session is meant to bring.
>>97280804That really sucks, dude. Your friend has my condolences. There might be bias that I think has been brough up, the type of player that can only play if they pay usually aren't that nice to have around.
The store owner used to slip me some cash under the counter when my game grew to 20+ people every Wednesday. He said Wednesdays started being his 2nd most profitable day of the week. I burned out though after 6 months, it's just too many people even with multiple dms.

Anon made me think about it and yeah aos alarielle is a terribly written character. Should have just kept Isha, just like they literally kept Kurnous.
I would like to talk about the Chronicles of Darkness game line Deviant: The Renegades, or more specifically, one major upcoming supplement. Deviant was released in late 2021, and has had three additional sourcebooks since then. A new supplement, Black Vans, has been in playtesting for a while, and is currently being previewed.I am not being paid or sponsored to promote this book in any way. I am just very fascinated by it, and indeed, I already ran a mini-campaign using the playtest material.Deviant is, by default, a game about playing angsty, scarred superheroes who either fight world-manipulating conspiracies or work for them. Black Vans is a toolkit full of variant rules, quick NPC creation, variant character types, and variant genres. These variants range from the minor to the dramatic, completely overhauling what were once non-negotiable, foundational themes and mechanics. Maybe your character is not angsty or scarred at all, perhaps they are a """""regular human""""" like John Wick or Batman, or the campaign might have nothing to do with world-manipulating conspiracies.These variant genres include cyberpunk, high fantasy, post-apocalypse, space opera, and superhero emergence.This is a beefy supplement. For example, one chapter alone dedicates 38,000+ words to playing other monsters of the Chronicles of Darkness: Beasts, changelings, demons, Sin-Eaters, hunters (entirely separate from the variant rules for """natural""" superpowers), mages, mummies, Prometheans, vampires, and werewolves. No additional supplements beyond Deviant are necessary; the rules are self-contained, allowing the group to play a monster mash of an urban fantasy setting without needing a daunting 7+ books. And yes, they are supposed to be balanced against one another, so a vampire in the same group as a full-fledged mage is probably some older Kindred.(Continued.)
>>97275389Edna you beautiful autism machine, I've barely cracked into the PDF of the core book and my physical copy won't be here for several days, besides which I have a CoC game and a Cyberpunk Red game that are going to happen before anything else, so this'll be a ways out.That being said, from what I've read so far and what y'all have been posting about, I'm hoping for something akin to hyperviolent, body horror version of the Secret World of Alex Mack.

>>97279899Depends on the type of dwarfing you're getting up to but Drow of the Underdark and Forgotten Realms - Underdark have sections on cave ecology, spelunking, and the like.
>>97276975>It's all one client now. Reforged is just graphical changes. Frozen Throne and Reign of Chaos have sinced been combined into one program.WHich added a lot of bugs and fucked the balance of the RoC campaign by switching everything to the damage and armor types of TFT.I do like that WC2 remake though I think it's going a bit too far to make both campaigns canon right up to Stromgarde, Stratholme, Dalaran, and Lordaeron City getting totally/mostly destroyed. The book version definitely went too far the other way and made the Horde seem a non threat, but this doesn't really work either. Plus integrating all that NuLore like the Void stuff.

Welcome to the New School Revolution General, the thread dedicated to games derived from the OSR movement.>What is NSR?>NSR is a subcategory of the OSR, it mostly follows the same play style but experiments further with the mechanics and settings.>Broadly NSR games have a gm, a living world, are rules light, deadly and focus on emergent narrative, interaction and exploration.>What is this thread NOT for?Meta discussions or drama of the games and its creators aka shadowboxing with twitter, reddit and the OSRG (frens with osrbros)>stay on topic>gamesShadowdark, into the odd, mausritter, cairn, mörk borg (and its hacks), dungeon crawl classics, mothership, knave, troika!, whitehack, blackhack, old school essentials (we know this is just a retroclone), etc. >links, resources, more games!, etc:https://pastebin.com/0W8WmbCk (BROKEN we're working on it) Comment too long.

>>97280269It makes sense. ItO wants you to avoid combat as much as possible, M86 really wants you to get a shoot out with the cops.There's also rules for chases, very small, but they're there and you get some example cars and boats so you can use them as reference. It's a nice ItO clone, nothing crazy, but covers some bases in case you didn't know how to approach them and has some nice inspo. I also got it from the share thread so it's a lot for free.
>>97280484Secret countdowns never worked for me. You could go the BitD route and have a pizza slice clock on the table, more gamey and players can act accordingly to clear canonical information.I usually lie a bit because anything you do to inform them of stuff they shouldn't use to decide is gonna break immersion. At that point just make it as dramatic as possible.
>>97280484try narrating knock-on environmental effects like stuff detaching loudly in the distance or have a fire break out and an alarm go off. if they spend time investigating, give them a fair estimate of time left.
>>97280802I've run BitD, and I agree with the pros/cons of the clock. I think for Mothership, it makes it too meta-gamey and doesn't suit the horror setting where you should never have complete information. But thinking about it in the way you've set out has helped. If the players can't control it/take decisions based on it, move it earlier so it acts as a shock rather than as a complication. They're unlikely to go to the reactor first as the power is still on. Thanks.>>97281127I think I'll write in that there's a transponder on Renato’s suit so the bridge can pick it up.
>>97281270This more about movies, but Hitchcock once said that you can either have surprise or suspense.>Surprise: Two men are talking in a bar. Their table blows up.>Suspense: Someone sets up a bomb. Two men sit down and start talking. You see the clock ticking and getting closer to blowing up. Then it blows up.It's kinda similar. If they have meta information you can use it to create suspense, but you'll lose impact. If you focus on impact you can't really build it up without killing it.
If you created an Amazon setting, what would it be like? By Amazon setting, I don't mean a single society among many where women are primarily the fighters, I mean a setting where every society is this way. Some question to start someone off:>What genre would you make your setting be?>Do women tend to be musclegirls, men tend to be twinks, both, or does comparative height and build not change?>Is the magic that men and women are capable of different?>For pursuits that don't involve combat (such as hunting), are ones that are considered masculine and feminine swapped? Which ones?>While women would dominate military matters, what about other goverment matters? Do those end up women dominated?>How does courtship change?>Did you Amazon setting start off as such in-universe or was it some new development that lead to it being that way?
>>97278608If you want to be realistic, it's impracticle. The society that doesn't let women fight wins by sheer numbers. Pic related.But the answer is "fuck it: some magic bullshit." Because fuck it. If you wanna do that just have some magic bullshit.
how many times do we need this thread
>>97279861Sorry I forgot to state the premise that: assume 1/3rd die in war. But you get the idea. Not letting women fight produces reproductive success that outcompetes your enemies. That's why human socieities were roughly egalitarian until the advent of war.
In your amazon setting, do you make it that all male warriors are traps?
>>97279861>>97279875The way you make it make sense is women are way more common than men. If 9 out of 10 births are female, suddenly sending your men off to war is a really bad idea.

This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.This is different than the regular osrg as due to rampant trolling from a handful of bad actors, discussion is impossible.>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Starter Dungeonshttps://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/86342023/#q86358321PREVIOUS THREAD>>97226728
