Is Scott Calvin becoming the new Santa after accepting the terms of the Santa Clause some kind of Fae tomfoolery?
>>97274976That was an extremely entertaining read and an amazing way to start the first day of the year. Thank you very much, anon
>>97276260>Is there a spell in Mage 2E that increases the damage of a weapon directly instead of just adding more dice to roll?I thought more damage in CoD was just more dice. Did that change in 2E?
>>97276308Based, sounds like a large group then.
If you could choose the set of core classes (in the PHB/core book and ideally the rest of the classes are designed around them) what would you choose?They don't have to be identical to their current incarnations.For me its,>Ranger,absorbs a lot of the fighter but keeps the independent survivalist schtick.>Paladin, Divine warrior with special abilities but no spells>Rogue,Sneaky stabby martial, basically as he is now>Wizard,>Druid,>Cleric,Default to being lightly armoured wandering friar tuck type character, but with options to put on some armour and bonk.

>>97275758>blockerOoh, Gundam mentioned!
>>97276911Anon...
>>97276698Wixoss I'd also like but it has the glaring problem of having outright changed formats a couple times in ways I'm not sure would be compatible. A poll is good though, yeah.
Finally, after teasing it 4 years ago, Duel Masters is getting its "Duelist" card type. As expected, they seem to be the DM equivalent to MtG's Planeswalkers.So far, they've shown "Vanquish, Artist of Strategy" (pic related, far left).To summarize his (and by extension, all Duelists') abilities, he's an element (ie. permanent) you play from your hand, and once each turn during your main step, you can use him to freely play a "Duelmate" card from your hyperspatial zone (8 card extra deck of double-faced cards) that has a race matching his "Duelist" ability (in this case, "Vanquish") and costs equal to or less than the cards in your mana zone. Duelists also seem to have some kind of legendary rule where you can't have two of the same Duelist out at the same time.His second ability is "Duelist Link", where when there are 3 Vanquish Duelmate cards with different names in the battle zone, they can be flipped and combined into a strong creature (see next post).To summarize his Duelmate cards:>2 cost 1000 power creature that draws you a card whenever it attacks>3 cost spell that targets 2 of your opponents creatures, preventing them from attacking or blocking>4 cost spell that has you look at the top 3 cards of your deck, put one in your hand and the rest in the graveyardInterestingly some of his Duelmate cards are spells. As far as I know, there are no existing hyperspatial zone cards (psychic or dragheart cards) that are spells. After Duelmate spells get cast, they get put underneath the Duelist in the battle zone, so they can fulfill the condition for Duelist Link.(1/2)
>>97277177And here's what you get if your Duelist and Duelmates survive long enough to all be out at once: Gallows Rankma Dragon, Geima Cycle Dragon (translation from the wiki's dedicated autist)Its abilities:>Can attack the turn it is linked (so it basically has speed attacker)>Double Breaker>When this creature attacks, you may cast a spell from your hand that costs 5 or less for free.>When this creature would leave the battle zone, instead destroy "Vanquish, Artist of Strategy".It's strong, but surprisingly not a total insta-win like you might expect from a creature made from combining three other cards.I think the devs were careful to not make any individual part of Vanquish and his mates too strong. Getting value each turn for such a small cost (2 mana) seems pretty good as it is, but no individual one of his normal Duelmate cards is that strong relative to some of the other powercreeped bullshit in modern Duel Masters that you could get out with similar timing. Geima Dragon would be pretty rough to deal with on turn 4, but you could slow it coming out by killing Vanquish with cheap element-based removal which would put any spells he's cast back into the hyperspatial zone. I find it funny that his 2 cost Duelmate creature only draws a card when it attacks, which opens itself up to being attacked and killed, again slowing down the Duelist Link.One can only hope Duelists won't end up being broken and twisting the entire metagame around them. I fully expect a bunch of weird combos based around other cards that are able to play cards from the hyperspatial zone without caring about their type (most are limited to only psychic or only dragheart, but I think there are a few that don't care).Anyway, they seem fun.(2/2)

>2eIs there an archetype that'll let me play a merchant that just relies on hirelings for combat?
>>97276105>Rings https://2e.aonprd.com/Equipment.aspx?ID=3079I'd rule the weight bearing word is ANY in>...the weapon's fundamental runes are replicated onto any melee weapon you wield...to keep the costs as low as they need to be.

If anything, I'd buff them (maybe even combine them into one to cull the spell list) so that they're useful even for runed items.
>>97276459Yes, Captain is what you're looking for. What to use as the base class for merchant is the hardest part I think.
>>97276824How's my Runic Body fanfiction?Range touch; Targets 1 willing creatureDuration until your next daily preparations-Glowing runes appear on the target's body. The target gains a +1 item bonus to AC and unarmed and weapon attack rolls. If the target gains similar benefits from armor runes, the target also gains temporary hit point equal to the spell's rank when their turn starts. If the target gains similar benefits from weapon runes, the target gains a damage bonus equal to the spell's rank the first time it deals damage each round.-Heightened (3rd) +1 item bonus to saves and increase the number of damage dice to twoHeightened (5th) +2 item bonus to AC and unarmed and weapon attacksHeightened (7th) +2 item bonus to saves and increase the number of damage dice to threeHeightened (9th) +2 item bonus to AC and unarmed and weapon attacksHeightened (10th) +3 item bonus to saves and increase the number of damage dice to four. Double the amount of tHP and additional damage.
For 1e I am thinking of making a homebrew witch archetype that hands out a buff to convert negative energy to healing for their allies. What is the best way to limit this from being busted. 1) Less Healing? 2) Limiting the number of people that can benefit from it 3) A combination of the two? 4) Some other thing?

Have you healed from female Custodes yet?
>>97277078I bet if I was a Sisters of Battle or Sororitas or whatever fan, I'd be pretty disappointed they were getting ignored.But yeah, Disney taught me a long time ago not to get too attached to works and franchises from mainstream companies, especially when those companies are so ready and willing to alienate their fanbases, then be acerbic about the sudden influx of "toxic haters" their behaviors created.
>>97277083OP asked a question, and in order to formulate an answer, I asked for more context.Cool your mantits, chungus.
>>97277100SoB are hardly getting ignored in favor of Femstodes. Female Custodes don't even have models and the book in question takes place several thousand years before Sisters of Battle would even exist.
>>97277100Sisters are very well supported by Games Workshop with a lot of new models released in recent years. You just think they are ignored because you never see ragebait posted about them.Female Custodes, by contrast, has had zero models released, ever.

>>97272871OR here, and you did an amazing job!and that you captured the joke of my request with that face.truly a very good job anon
How is it? Looks bretty fun
>>97247524I genuinely love this game. Mike Hutchinson has made some bangers but this is probably my favourite. Solid ruleset and a kitbashing wet dream. As others have said, there is something uniquely satisfying about customising old Hot Wheels cars too.
>>97249677>first lap is weapons-lockedusually just the first stretch between start and checkpoint 1. Also if you car can't survive a collision and then abuse the "go through whatever you collided with" rule, you deserve to be buried in the pileup.
>>972698081 car 1 buggy, put some front rams on the bug and front gun on the car, place 4 checkpoints so the fastest path is a king of criss cross x| thing, put something in the center, and just let your players loose at the mostly open terrain.
>>97272815What are some other games you recommend? I'm new to minis
>>97276192In no particular order...The Doomed - Very simple, but solid ruleset. Pretty much Monster Hunter the tabletop game. Fun solo game but if you can get 3-4 friends involved its fantastic. The lore/setting is implied rather than set in stone and only there to give you kitbashing ideasA Billion Suns - Criminally overlooked space combat gameA War Transformed - The better Trench CrusadeForbidden Psalm - Mordheim for dummies, but don't let that put you off. Can be played in Coop or solo tooKillSampleProcess - As above but cyberpunk themedHere's The Ruckus - Medieval, historically accurate-ish skirmish game. Very well balanced, unlike a lot of skirmish gamesZona Alfa - Stalker but tabletop. Plays well out straight out of the book, but its a good foundation for homebrewing

>>97273529I'm drawn to Cain because of several elements:The Mark of Cain.City of Enoch.Destined to Wander the Land of Nod.Founded the Fist City.Also, making Tiefling symmetrical to the Aasimar is compelling and gives a much needed myth gravity that normal Aasimar lack because they are less my grandpa had sex with an angel, I won the lottery, and more my grandpa were great heroes but also tyrants.
>>97273529As for elves = indistinguishable from actual demons for longer than people remember.
I'm making Magitek that runs off Rei Ayanami bondage.>To elaborate, magic can only be harnessed by human thought in my verse. If you want to create Magitek, you need to somehow figure out a way to get some human to run it forever and ever.>Their solution was simply to take a particularly excellent female Mage, clone her, and use the Clones as the main component in creating magic using Spaceships/Airships and Mecha.>The clones are usually young girls that are engineered to be emotionless, submissive, and highly intelligent so that they can be turned into sapient tools. The real controllers (ie captains) are usually normal young male soldiers that subdue these clones to their will.>The mechanism that harnesses the clones' power is designed to literally bind them and turn them into passive objects for the human controllers. The usual design is just the clone bound to a cross while dressed in a white jumpsuit (barefoot, of course) while the pilot sits in the seat and does all the actual fighting.You could say the girls are basically just U.I. slash concubines for the male pilots. It's dirty business, but it works. And more often than not motivates pilots to fight harder so that their Core doesn't think they're cowards.

>>97276851>Dice Tower are fucking terrible and only fun to like ironically because Tom pisses off so many peopleI only very rarely watch dice tower, but toms reviews always seem pretty good to me. Straight to the point, and he is able to convey what you might/not like in a pretty short time. He seems a bit apathetic but who wouldn't be if you play a new fucking game 3x a day for decades. The man still loves games after all this time, which is far, far more than can be said about various british cucks
speaking of british cucks
>>97276871My 2 cents: exploration, like written narrative, relies heavily on novelty. Not emergent one, but predetermined novelty, and boardgames are not only heavily limited in how much stuff they can pack into the box, it also gets ever fiddlier. Additionally, repetitive encounters/events/whatever due to lack of variety is much more of a deal in boardgames because you need to administrate everything yourself. Everything in boardgaming is more deliberate, all balancing issues are more severe etc. Where getting the same event again or encountering the same enemies a bunch of times is a minor annoyance in Videogames it becomes old faster in boardgaming. All in all I think ecplorative/railroaded narratives kind of don't work well in the medium, as much as I'd like it to. Boardgamings strength in that regard lies very very much in emergent narratives and stronger social aspect.
>>97261637Stationfall is one of the most original design I've seen in years, I would play it everyday.People disliking it because it's too chaotic have either done only one game, or played with more than 5 players. Playing it with 4 is just so satisfying, provided that everyone knows the characters' agendas and don't move tokens randomly.
>>97276851Space biff is the exact same shit. Just spewing filth onto a page because boardgamers want as many dead words as possible to feel intellectually superior by reading 50 words saying what 5 can>>97276877I will have to look into podcasts for sure. Anything that involves actual experienced individuals in the industry at the making games part is what Im craving. I dont tolerate the flood of uneducated unknowledgeable slop anymore. I dont want to listen to film school grads who never designed a game try to explain design to me. I dont want to read creative writers fellating themselves. I want the pure autism of turczi or uwe or knizia or other people with a resume bigger than 5 flops

He wears a suit of gleaming gothic half-plate, while she wears a hauberk and gambeson. After the contest has ended, the pair enjoy a hearty meal of turkey and maize together.>An old man wearing a ragged cloak over equally ragged clothes nurses a cooling cup of coffee while watching their antics, stirring in a spoonful of sugar after an exploratory taste.>A woman sat on a stool by the bar takes in one last drag of her cigarette before she stubs it out in an ashtray. With that out of the way, she tucks into a pumpkin pie that is waiting for her.>A man with dark skin pays for his meal with several unfamiliar coins, before brushing past you on his way out the door. He wears a vest made of soft leather over a loose cotton shirt, and has a long sword in a sheath strapped to his back, ready to be drawn at any moment.>A young girl greets you animatedly and offers you menus.

Recently I was thinking about alternative combat systems.I remember someone talking about instead of HP the payer has a Jenga tower and he needs to remove peaces once hit, the skill is to remove peaces without the tower collapsingSo I started thinking.For example what if the combat somehow involves cups and balls?Instead of a D20+modifier nonsense why not change it up? Why not give a player 10 balls or legos or whatever and to win an encounter the player needs to land 2 balls in 1 cup?There can be variants of this like a super hard encounter demands the player lands all 10 balls or what about reducing the size of the cup with the difficulty of combat?What if we implement a fate system from Talisman for the players? What if legendary bosses have something like that for themselves? And can negate the players victory? What if different monsters use different "balls" like for example some bone golems will be you throwing legos into cups and zombies are aluminum balls while naga can be gummy bears? That actually makes the monster feel different and not a copy pasted set of numbers. Also the different aerodynamics of these "balls" are part of the fun.Comment too long.

Previous thread: >>97111514GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: How often do you use an official GURPS setting? Which are your favorites?
