New year new me edition>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I also feel bad for those guys.>Cyberpunk Rulesets (The Vault) (May not have all updated rulebooks, check official sources for updates):bit<dot>ly/2Y1w4Md>Resources for RED:https://datapool2045.net/Comment too long.

I was looking at the exotics section of 2020 and the digitagrade legs caught my eye, they're weird but seemed cool and I was considering giving my techie some until I saw the costs. 4000eb for a pair of legs makes sense but 6d6 hc, it's not at all worth the cost when you have to get a tail too to get one (1) extra point of ma or suffer a -2 penalty.

>>97308457Techs are both the broken and stupidest role for reasons you said. Even the bosses have weirdly broken Tech Upgrade items yet won't give the item as is because "whoops you cant loot that item off the enemy! Teehee damaged upon repair upon defeat!". Meanwhile Ripper has grey goo nanomachines and nobody makes a peep on it, which once again, you can't loot off him because guess what: damaged upon repair!>gives the developers a get out of jail free card for every poorly designed item.I love Techs but holy shit, I want fun items without retarded drawbacks. I dont give a shit about balance. If James have to hide shit behind a role and then destroy it so nobody can eat that cake, then its a rampant problem

What are some of your experiences with BRP or mythras? Favorite stories, characters, or supplements? I generally like running pulp or horror campaigns. Funniest story setup was how my players thwarted a small series of adventures I planned before it even started.>Players role up an old priest, a journalist, and basically fred from scooby doo. >Investigating a series of murders and disappearances. >Get captured thesmelves and wind up in a rundown factory converted to sort of look likea victorian mansion.>Meet an obvious vampire who uses them for basic company and conversation before planning to kill them.>My players escape, the frail priest manages to full nelson the vampire, and the other players manage to use a stake to kill him. It ended what I planned to be a multi session adventure in one night. It was a lot of lucky roles and ended up with being funny.
Trying out Runequest for solo. Finally got done with character creation.Are there any good hexcrawl/exploration modules for runequest?
>>97304384Is it available in the ShareThread?
>>97304163>>97304214Not my post but adding on to this, BRP allows for very easy improv if needed. If something unexpected happens, you can quickly stat up something or just make a check's difficulty. >>97306844There are a few fan ones floating around like exile island. There are also settings like griffin mountain or monster island that can be converted to hex craw lvery easily. Not sure how these work with solo games I am afraid. The entirety of elfmaids and octopi, a blog for brp stuff, was something I heard good things about. The best mythras and runequest support is probably pavis' blog.
>>97304214>- improve by using your skillsThis is IMO the best thing about BRP.Lets your your PC has a Melee (1H swords) skill of 20. This means you roll 1d100, and if you roll 20 and below, you succeed at whatever you were trying to do. Lets say you get into a fight with some monsters of whatever. At the end of the session you roll 1d100 again once. If you roll 21 and above, you improve your skill by 1d4 points. So learning a new skill is easy, but perfecting a skill you're already good at is not. Its very realistic.
Does anyone here have experience of playing Superworld?
No memeing or hyperbole: have you ever actually played an actively racist character? What kind of mindset did you have with such a character and how did it influence your general interactions in the game?
>>97309977>>97310198>>97310263lmaoing at anon being proven right>i know niggers kill half the people that die of murder each year in your country, but youre just a racist retard>we need to gas gypsies though because theyre smelly thieves
>>97311545I remember vividly about a time when some guy started a thread talking about how to characterize goblins as a culture.First post in, some euroid was immediately ranting about gypsies unprompted. He wasn't even talking about using them as a model for goblins, he was just going off.
Shadowrun is the only game where you can be racist and join anti-metahuman groups.
>>97311545Eurotards need to admit that Hitler was right about all nonwhites and at best we should have the relationship that Germany had with Japan where both have respect for one another but don't force each other to adopt each others culture and don't bend over backwards to not offend one another and still look out for themselves 100%. You know, how rational diplomacy works.>>97310172>people are overreacting to societies trying to lessen racial tensionsNot really. Racists just recognize the following: races are different and that each race has the right to their own homeland and nations. For some reason people like to say whites shouldn't have that. Racism is in vogue basically because of pic related and the realization that:1. Mixed kids feel a lack of identity that harms them and are genetically distant from both parents, in some cases so much so that they cannot accept any donors for health risks besides other mixed people.2. No nation was formed so that outsiders can just come in and claim to be exactly the same as the people who have real stake there. America as formed by the founders, for example, was explicitly supposed to by whites for whites only white nonwhites being, at best, a laborer class.Moralist pearl clutching emotional debates pretend these two conclusions are not valid at all when they always have been throughout history whenever they have occurredAnyway most nations in my settings are racist to one thing or another because that is just how nations work, nations by definition being exclusionary. In Shadow of the Demon Lord most mortal races hate the fey because most of them aren't helping to push back the tide of the apocalypse and are more interested in doing their own thing, partially because they had oracles foretell long ago that the planet would be led to ruin one day.And no one besides the insane is stupid enough to trust shit like demons either in most settings, including mine

>>97313984"You've been hired by a local crime lord to kill an Imperial Moff who refuses to turn a blind eye to said crime lord's dealings" Now the party gets to decide what sort of morality it wants. Full murder hobo killing evil Imperials, or helping the Imperials enforce their evil lawful ways by helping them get rid of a crime lord.Or get jobs from a mysterious contact (who may or may not be a part of the Rebel Alliance) to strike and destroy Imperial infrastructure or steal money or ships from the Empire.Or stealing rare and valuable ancient artifacts from rich asshole who supports the Empire. Or from the local crime lord.Just spitballing here. You can take a lot of fantasy adventures and just replace things like "king" with "planetary governor" and still have cliche'd adventures rescuing a princess.The sky's not even the limit since there's also all that space out there to explore. Like having the party fly into an asteroid field to investigate an ancient derelict spaceship for anything valuable and/ or fighting off space pirates who want the loot for themselves or are just harassing local civilian traffic.>>97314004Heh, I might have to check that out.It does remind my of the many times we'd be in a public place and the party members would say "act subtle so you don't attract attention" and I'd have to remind them that "I am seven feet tall, four feet wide, and painted bright red. I do not do 'subtle'"
>>97314035quasi related, it's always been weird to me how droids never get to be eccentric or overly weird, hell the droid with the most personality is R2, and its just him being sassy and brash at most, or K-2S0 or HK-47 being very sarcastic. why can't we get droids who love to wear gaudy chains and furs and use blasters way over their weight tolerance and other dumb shit.
>>97313984The traditional "you're in debt to a hutt and working under it as payment" is always fun since it lets the party start off as thugs doing low level shit, then they can eventually get drawn into a larger event that can have consequences down the line (like if they join the rebellion without paying off their debt, they have to choose between doing a blatantly evil job that pays enough money to cover their debt or pissing off their boss by fucking up the job while remaining in debt, or dealing with the increased scrutiny if they find a jedi relic and report it to the Imperials).Also, how you frame a quest can really shape the enjoyment of it and how the players will react accordingly.when in doubt, use high-school level plagarism skills and just blatantly copy another plot but make it fit into the star wars setting. There's a large enough variety of planets and cultures that a good chunk of popular fiction can be easily retooled to work in the setting.
What turret is this? It's not the DF9 or the 1.4 FD
>>97313979Kek, one of my old Saga campaigns had us encounter a decked out snub-cruiser (a Republic cruiser but smaller, Colossal Space Transport size) upgunned with turbolasers, bigger shields, faster, a few other things (even a cloak) and that upgrade. It was the personal ship of some rich as fuck hereditary governor in the Corporate Sector, basically a Saudi prince except IN SPACE, so it had absolute extreme luxury.He flew around in it with his personal harem. Shit happened, and we legitimately salvaged the ship. Turned out after a few adventures that he was the wastrel useless son and his younger brother thanked us for offing him (which was an accident) because it let the younger brother inherit. So he let us keep the ship. The harem too, but we dropped most of them off and only kept a few who wanted to actually work as crew.It turned out to be a trap, because keeping a ship like that in proper luxury status costs stupid credits and we ended up in debt to the younger brother several times. Also a Hutt at one point. But we kept at it because the roleplay. Especially the wine rack.
You ever just host a session which goes so bad it makes you want to quit ever hosting again? Holy fuck, save me bros. I'd rather get dressed down in front of my whole family than live through that kind of shame again.
>>97310417You gotta storytime it fag.
>>97310417You really can't expect us to help or relate without some context. I play with friends and friends of friends so it's almost never been an issue. The one time I had a game that was just fucking awful, I talked to the other players and GM about it, said I was having issues with how flakey people were while having the longest commute, and ended up leaving when nothing changed. It was a group ran by a friend of a friend and I have no regrets leaving

>>97307740No argument here. The British did use an armored train during the Anglo-Egyptian war but that's already what directly inspires a lot of the traction engine (Also the Steam Sappers of one of the Ashante Expeditions) so giving them another armored vehicle would be redundant.
>>97307740>>97309631Alright, if I keep it in the USA book, should I make it something where the carts you get are random (with perhaps, some options keyed in, for example the military one could be Federal Leader only...), or where you purchase each one? I'm thinking of putting a Valuable (x) rule on some Carts, like the Deepfolk's buildings, and you would score a percentage (or multiple) of that amount if you manage to get that Cart off the map on the 3rd, 4th, 5th turn for example.
>>97314126My vote would be for random if you want to use them for economy (maybe doing that thing where you get positive silver as long as they stay alive like with the Investor) but with the option to buy specific ones as normal units if you just want troop transport ability or other such

It let's you have funny moments of High/Low rolls that can change your fate completely. I like it because it isn't super tightly balanced, it's just fun.
Are there solo tools for generating a hook to start an adventure?
>>97311956Yeah, I feel the same way about the game. I wish its fanbase wasn't so shit, otherwise I think it would crack the fuck off here.

White Wolf died. But where's the replacements? DnD has hundreds of clones. But where are all the vampire/mage/werewolf clones? Is because DnD is more generic and easier to copy?

>>97311197There’s not the same kind of competitor to WoTC that once existed no. The ttrpg space has changed a lot though. Politics have changed a lot. But what WoD offered was a game focused more on storytelling than action and number crunching. There are plenty of games like that. Some of which can involve vampires or whatever the fuck. Onyx path still exists and they’re essentially White Wolf but the popularity has waned as far as I can tell. There’s some weird stuff with Paradox involved in the copyrights.Personally I tried to get a group together for Werewolf. I did what the people on here said to do with my 5e group. I said we either play Werewolf or nothing. They chose to have a BG3 night instead. Which I skipped because I’ve played more than enough of that game. The group is getting back together for an Eberron game DM’d by someone else. I got them to try Genesis at least. People just don’t seem to care about WoD anymore, not sure why.
>>97311197It's the same thing with the fucking "why isn't there an osr for 3rd edition" thread. You can get these books! They aren't hard to find. You can get a physical copy of v20 for relatively cheap if you're fine with black and white, and that book has fucking EVERYTHING in it. If people want to play WoD, they are drowning in options.
