Just want to talk about some things d&d-wise without being tied to an edition. I had a 13/13 F/M Grey Elf Bladesinger that has this spell that was taking down monsters and PCs ten levels higher than him. I'll post some more spells. This book is AD&D PLAYER'S OPTION: Spells & Magic

I bring with me a story, a story I must re-type because 4chan fucked my post in my dealing with IP range bs! Long ago, 16 years and a couple days ago, an anon made a small game called Wizard Battle and posted it to /tg/. Last year, someone on a discord server I'm in told me of the game and told me to do something with it. As such, I've cleaned the game up a bit in some parts, and filled it up in others. Since the original game was posted originally as a thread, I thought I would bring things around full circle.>but anon the amateur game design thread is 8 pages down the hall!Too bad, I already posted an earlier version of this in a game design thread.The game: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Hm4bLdzsX4bzYMxgs-N1fnCNVDUwKKXxwxqD9eddqdkThe original: https://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/2010/8941465/

Anyone in this godforsaken board playing in groups where power creep is not a factor? For example one person giving preconstructed decks to all other players at the table, or playing with self-made jumpstart or Wizard's Tower decks etc.
>>97830630No I don't have them anywhere online, but they were basically the meta some years ago tweaked a little bit for balance and cost.If you want to do something similar I'd recommend just making a meta you liked (or think you'd like).
>>97830123>preconstructed decksIt struck me that Arena's Starter Deck queue is unironically one of the best ways to play Magic (sometimes, not now) and I'd love it if people took the idea seriously. Trying to curate the best standard environment ever with like 8 viable decks that are relatively balanced against one another, and then let players customize their sideboards. You can make constant balance adjustments by just adjusting the card pool, instead of hamstringing yourself with the restriction that cards can't be removed unless they're totally egregious because it makes people lose confidence in the gacha game.

We always have a ,id campaign everyone event with a special scenario. Everyone is out of recovery and no lasting injuries. Generally there is a flat X amount of creds for attending and the winner gets a bonus special weapon or dramatis personae etc
In blood bowl, what’s more fun for league: Orcs or Black Orcs?
>>97837884>How does it and Dreadfleet play? Is it pretty much the same game? Have a hankering for some piracyOh nonono. There's a lot more cards and tokens involved, so much so that you need another table depending on the fleet size. But the games are so much more varied, even if you play with a small fleet. It is really an enjoyable game once it gets going though, with tons of terrain, monsters and land-based scenarios. I really wish that Man o' War got the fan revival treatment of some other games, it could really use some tinkering with.

>>97837194>>97837797I'm curious to see how gunpowder chaos humans would look
I really think AoS has room and faction concepts to explore like Grotbag Scuttlers or Silent People before going with shit like Cathay or Bretonnia. The other GW games should adopt some of the cool AoS faction like Gloomspite Gitz or Sylvaneth and not viceversa.
>>97838584I was running Ogors - and we did well. A lot of the in-book Paths can negate the weakness of being so aggressive. If I miss a charge phase, I can still do D3 mortals and possibly get -1 to wound which is big against Death armies. We're gonna gear up for Ravaged Coast soon-ish. I want to run a new army for that for variety's sake. Was going to be BoK, but the new Cities stuff might make me use them instead. The people who used their Anvil of Apotheosis had a loooot of fun with those characters.

>>97837467You could probably cobble together something with Chronicles of Darkness rather easily. The system is modular and allows for easy creation of any sort of monster or even characters for Sarkicist abilities, though you might want to read Second Sight for the latter. I recommend using Hunter: The Vigil, especially if you want to play as members of one of the masquerade upholding GoIs like the Foundation or the GOC. You might also want to consider looking into Deviant.
I want to run CoC for the first time. What Call of Cthulhu scenarios feel the most like Iron Maiden songs?
>>97833370>What works?The concept of a cosmic horror interred in ice has been done a couple times before but I think this is the first where the entity in question is somehow causing the HEAT DEATH OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE despite the fact that it's completely imprisoned in ice on the literal ass-end of the earth. It doesnt have to do anything to destroy the universe, it just exists and everythin falls towards cosmic stasis.>What's cool about it?Apart from the big bad literally cooling everything down, it's a short and sweet story featuring a pretty unique take on an eldritch abomination.>Why is it so effective?It's a gradual examination of the entity, known as The Specimen, which eventually reveals shocking and terrible truths that point towards it being the ultimate annihilator of the world, if not the universe as a whole - all despite it being contained in a massive sheet of ice. It pulls off the expedition team losing their minds fairly well and the MC, though we don't know much about her, sells the perspective of a rational scientist faced with something inexplicable in both its form and concentrated malice.>What is the best part of it in your opinion?The line where it's revealed that the universe's entropic heat death is escalating far, far ahead of schedule: "The world is freezing to death. Not through an ice age or nuclear winter, but from inertia of cosmic proportions". The Specimen is literally killing the universe within a human lifetime with the Sun and stars slowly going out, plants and animals withering and dying due to the seasons no longer changing, the Earth's rotation slowing, and humanity generally being caught in a depressive fugue as they await the end.>Thoughts on the characters?Grace is the only one we really get detailed in any real form, and there's not much to say there apart from her being the POV character and a scientist examining the Specimen.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97833370>>97838556>Is the villain effective?Yeah, I'd say so. It's a colossal serpent-like entity with white fur, rapto-claws, and a wolf's skull for a head. It's completely immobile in the ice, and yet its presence causes insomnia and madness in the research team analyzing it, it may have driven the expedition who found it to suicide, and if Grace's theory is correct, it is causing the sped-up heat death of reality. It's the best kind of weird and unearthly that I like in my horror villains, and even more interestingly, it seems like it might be some especially weird take on the Yeti given it was found under the Mahalangur Himal and is noted to have "white fur".>If you had to pick a moment that really scared you, which would it be?Not necessarily a "scared me" moment, but the idea of 'something' being the direct cause of entropy as a phenomenon and being capable of speeding it up is a pretty freaky scenario to be stuck in. You can't do anything to stop it, you can't reason with it, and you can't slow it down. Something that should take sextillions of years is going to be happening in under five, and you'll be forced to experience it in crystal-clear detail.>Is there anything you feel could have been expanded upon?Maybe a little more lore behind the Specimen and some other characters for Grace to really bounce off of, but that's about it on my end.>What would you change?As above, I'd add other characters for Grace to interact with, more details on the Specimen, and some more speculation/theorizing regarding it.>Would you use it as inspiration for a game?Comment too long.

>>97833370I love the story, but I'm not sure if I would include it in my games given its reality destroying nature. I might consider using it as a final monster or an overarching evil.
Long time MtG player (17 years?) and with what's happening to the game rn, i don't really have much interest in any of the new sets. Sorcery looks like it could maybe scratch that itch. The art is fantastic and reminds me of legacy MtG art. Anybody here play?I watched a few overview vids, but I'm curious how the actual gameplay goes. For someone who plays mostly EDH, are there any similarities? Is it usually a 2 player match?How long are the matches usually?Is it as much of a money pit as MtG?Convinced a few of my MtG friends to give it a shot based off of the art alone. Just need an idea of what I'm up against in terms of learning curve.

>>97820622Atleast in our city sorcery has been steadily gaining new players, with most being ex-mtg players or completely new to tcg hobby. It's either been the art or gameplay drawing people in. Ppl seem to enjoy the boardgame feel of the game with site placement and cards really affecting the realm unlike in some other games.
