>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more.

RIP iron winds.I don't go around exploding over it but it is something i keep in the back of my head.Bad supports and resin traps are a bad sign but we all make mistakes, if they haven't fixed them with the resources they have fully then that's more of a problem because it shows their prioritizes.>you can play with other minisand i do and i like that this is in their system.my issue is determining if it's a pattern of behaviour.I don't NEED offical minis but i wouldn't mind some, they're quite good, that's why we supported the project, a cool fucking universe and look.It makes me second guess picking up ones i like from FF in resin.

Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?

>>97330128Why not both?
>>97336803
>>97330128I'm divided. On one hand, I want my setting to have a great diversity of species and civilizations, so that if you go outside of the Designated Classic Fantasy Europe, you'll encounter anything from just cat-and-jackal-people Egypt to freaky shit that more resembles Teraurge than anything. On another, it feels like a nightmare to balance every eventuality of body sizes and features and so on, especially in terms of gear. How do you make it so people don't munchkin the fuck out of the game by saying their character is Thrumbo Generic, elephant man from far south-east, who is big and hefty enough that, once he's got the cash for it, he can cover himself in armor that'd render anything that isn't magic, a collapsing building, or a bigger Thrumbo, and club every combat encounter in the part of the world not structured around existence of Thumbos? How do you explain it not being somewhat in-vogue among rich enough rulers, to import Thrumbos, cover them in armor, and use them as shock troops?

>>97333395>dragon shield outer sleeves.Do the DS standard size sleeves also fit as an outer sleeve? Because I know my locals sells them for a discounted price and they don't sell many products for japanese sized cards. They also don't stock Ultra Pro products unless it's official Pokemon accesories.
Where do the nerds play yugioh nowadays? Is master duel still popular or did they run it into the ground?Last I played drytroons was meta on master duel
>>97334141It's split between Master Duel, Edopro, and YGO Omega. Generally people on 4chan will choose Edopro, unless they're specifically in Master Duel threads. YGO Omega's a decent enough option as long as you don't mind the discord integration (it scrapes your account for surface-level stuff like uuid and avatar for their ranked ladder).
>>97334933Why is Dueling Nexus unpopular?
>>97336337Taking 40+ minutes to finish a match with no in person interaction + ESLs artificially lengthening the game with their retardation and judge calls that are immediately overruled.I hear if you say your opponent has a "nice deck" you better not make typos now too.
What is your setting's game's tax policy in your game in your setting?
>>97335773Fucking owned.
>>97332525>*cracks opren the DMG* at page 140 "Taxes and Tithes""Taxes paid to the queen, the emperor, or the local baroness might consume as much as one-fifth of a character’s wealth [...] Representatives of the government usually collect taxes yearly, biannually, or quarterly. [...]Tithes often amount to as much as one-tenth of a character’s adventuring earnings [...]"There you go Mr. Martin
>>97335711>Bridges and roads have tolls to pay for upkeep and patrolling guards, charged per headSo nobody uses bridges nor sticks to toll roads, congrats, both decrease in quality and quantity over time>Incoming ships and caravans have to declare the estimated typical market value (in other words what's in the rulebook) of their cargo to be sold and pay tax based on that.Unless you plan to hire assessors, and thus defeat the whole point of self-declared cargo, you just created a two-sides corruption scheme, congrats!>All those involved in manual labor and manufacturing are obligated to do one year of "public service" in which they do construction, viandier, and manufacturing work for the state, this is considered their "tax". This has the side effect of discouraging job-hopping since a chef-turned-architect will have to do a year of public service in constructionSo you are saying there is a year-long corvee? Fuck mate, not even late Muscovite Duchy was this bad with their hardcore serfdom, with endless runawaysYou literally listed three most common economic blunders from early modern period.

>running a Witcher game for my friends>the party has a Witcher, a scoia’tel elf, a vran bard, and a Skelliger druid>if these chucklefucks don’t kill each other, they’re getting lynched by the first peasants they look at the wrong way
People are terrified of witchers. There's enough stories about them that Geralt generally travels without concern about anyone except the bandits that plague everyone.As long as the party has a witcher, most peasants may hate and despise the group, but they're just going to do their best to not get caught up in their business rather than trying their luck accosting them.
>>97330885I don't think people care that much about being from Skellige and the party being heavily armed and having a Witcher present will already make them only hassled by those with some serious ability to back it up. Also Druids are literally mages, by virtue of having one the party is already high status and even nobles won't fuck with them. They're not part of the Lodge or whatever but that's purely a cultural difference, even royalty will probably avoid blatant provocation because nothing good comes from making enemies with a mage
>>97334147Skelligers are generally perceived as bloodthirsty savages, and the cultural difference is an important one. To Nordling lords, their mages were specially trained at an academy to serve them. Druids weren’t, and might as well be basically witches.That’s not even getting to that, by the Third Northern War, even said Nordling mages are being hunted down by witch hunters, let alone pagan druids from the pirate islands.
>>97330885>a Witcher, a scoia’tel elf, a vran bard, and a Skelliger druidIn what reality arent these guys just absolutely butchering a bunch on peasants trying to lynch them?

>>97336022>>97336097Also to keep the theme of the line Dalphomon is a godly being pretending to be a machine (in the novel it supress its emotions to not act like a digimon and is basically cross connectia host computer ) and Metatromon is a machine pretending to be a godly being so it makes sense that their jogress name is based on Deus ex machina a God from the machine.

What's a fun way to introduce NTR elements into my Eberron game?
>>97336149It's a good practice. Nudging people in direction you want them to go while maintaining the impression it's all their own decision is useful tool for GMing. And perhaps life in general. Now, I normally don't do cuckoldry, or much of any romance plots, but that's what this thread is abou and I think the method could be used to facilitate it.
>>97321843They're saying that shit like NTR and cheating etc. are extremely ordinary parts of human behavior and history and unless you live under a rock you know it's the truth.
>>97336177Nah, I prefer not getting into petty arguments with my players over romance bullshit.>>97336524t. cuckold
>>97321843you actually have to play it at a smaller, more distant table
>>97336149>>97336177Honestly I think that guy's correct.Time pressure is how the game is actually supposed to be played, so the PCs have to keep pushing on. If there's no time-pressure, it's easy-mode.In this case, the consequences of "This girl is going to crumble under pressure" makes sense, the same way a guy being tortured is eventually going to break. In a way they're kind of the same thing. You can't take your time, it's a top priority.
I need a new GOOD fantasy race to base a campaign region around.
>>97335858Watch a few episodes of Samurai Jack and pick some random side/background characters
>>97335858Goblin girls.
Bullywugs don't get enough love.
>>97335858Go to an old sci-fi story, take one of the weird aliens from that, adapt it to your fantasy setting. Or just have em be changed little, as fantasy and sci-fi aren't really opposing settings and alien races come up often enough in many settings.
>>97335858Why not archaic humans, like neanderthals?

>>97336111Take 3.X. Distill and simplify it down (no multiple BAB, no escalating AC and skill levels, minimal in-class choices). That's 5e.They took it a bit too far in the 2014 version, though, to the point that half of each class' subclasses were basically trap options, and they'd basically played it too safe. They added some band-aids in Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, but the game has fundamental design flaws in its math that lead to it being an HP Pool versus Damage Output Escalation game rather than one that has challenges that scale linearly with levels like 3.X.2024 helped a lot in the "player options" side of things, fixing big issues like Ranger Beastmaster and Bladepact Warlocks, as well as giving every class 4 subclasses on pretty equal footing, though the DM guide is apparently terrible at telling people how to DM, but it's still functionally the same game.
