>>97358727>6/6 for 4 that draws a card on creature spells cast>UnplayableHOW?
>>97358747Doesn't have trample and the type of deck that wants the effect has better cards to cast.
Should an elven wizard be more powerful on average than a human one? Explain your answer.
>>97356728>CouldMaybe.>ShouldDepends on the system, but mostly on luck.>Explain your answerPretty sure that elves have some kind of learning disability to need to spend hundreds of years to learn the same thing humans can in a hundredth the time. So a headstart isn't going to mean much in terms of power overall.
>>97358443>Any that features the above settings or can run then in homebrewThey have very different rules for spellcasting, and different attributes being important. Like for instance, wisdom doesn't matter for D&D wizards (outside of saves), but it matters for channeling spells in Warhammer Fantasy. In this system anyway, elves can master any sphere of magic and learn High Magic, while human wizards are incapable of doing so.Let alone the difference in age and also powerlevels for characters.>>97358482>Pretty sure that elves have some kind of learning disability to need to spend hundreds of years to learn the same thing humans can in a hundredth the timeThat really isn't the case in any system or in any halfway serious setting.Elves being dumb children for hundreds of years is a shitty anime trope.
>>97358501>Elves being dumb children for hundreds of years is a shitty anime trope.Relax bro, just having a giggle since it's just a joke thread.Though I didn't even take that from anime, it's the bogstandard joke of how an elven adventurer starts at level 1 like everyone else despite an adult elf generally being in the triple digits for years lived compared to them, surprised you couldn't recognize it
>>97358643I never played an elf of such age, unless the system (and the GM) forced me to.You can play a 20-something elf just fine that also starts at level 1 as everyone else in many games.Furthermore, this logic doesn't work, never works, when said elf will level up as fast as everyone else, gain the equal amount of experience.And how dumb the thread is doesn't stop me from making regular, upfront posts about actual games stuff, if possible.>>97358501Also, since I'm familiar with WFRP more than anything else: you can't really say "it's largely the same" compared to anything else. Since elves in that system are not balanced to humans. The elfen wizard has a massive headstart in terms of spellcasting capabilities, and better stats in general. He will be a better fighter than the human wizard, faster and more agile, have more willpower, and even will be more charming. It really does depend on the system.
>>97358708>You can play a 20-something elf just fine that also starts at level 1 as everyone else in many games.Wouldn't that basically be an elven toddler? So you play games where elf lolis are fighting on par with grown men and dwarves and stuff?

>>97358092?I love crunch in my solo RPG
>>97358125>>97358211It becomes a memory game of if you can remember all the rules and mechanics to apply them correctly.
>>97358444yeah i like thatit's easy for me and fun for me to remember how systems work and run them in my head
>>97358092I guess it depends on how often you're doing rolls and checks. I keep them to a minimum for important events to keep the narrative going.
>make "Avatar the RPG" based on the show where the Avatar travels the world with his friends to solve a cataclysmic historical issue plaguing the world>you don't get to play as the avatar and his team>instead you play as a random band of adventurers doing random things >make "Root: The RPG" Based on the highly political war game Root >you don't get to play a high stakes politics game >instead you play as a random band of adventurers doing random things
>>97358280>>make "Root: The RPG" Based on the highly political war game Root>>you don't get to play a high stakes politics gameWhat exactly prevents you from doing this? I can understand your point with the other one since presumably they didn't give you rules to be the Avatar (although playing a team of benders should be enough for most groups I'd imagine)
>>97358305Not OP, but presumably the same reason.If the rules encourage a certain sort of play, and that sort of play is not what the setting would presumably be about, what use are the rules? A game about mundane medieval times has little use for underwater exploration rules; a politics game has little use for murderhobo rules.
>>97358280I always enjoyed playing the little guy
>>97358305>What exactly prevents you from doing this? While nothing completely "stops you" from doing so, it's a TTRPG after all, the core game mechanics are designed exclusively around playing adventuring vagabonds and you're discouraged from pledging alliance to any one faction. The game also explicitly doesn't support starting the game as a member or official of any of the factions. You are allowed to subtly influence the war trough your adventures, but will always be trapped in the middle, and the war is meant to be a backdrop rather than a focal point. I still think the books are fine, but I'm starting to notice a pattern of magpie games being very superficial with its theming.
>>97358280>Play RPG set in the Forgotten Realms>Dont play as Elminster>Play as random person in the same world and make your own story
Welcome to /wbg/, the official thread for the discussion of in-progress settings for traditional games.Here is where you go to present and develop the details of your worlds such as lore, factions, magic and ecosystems. You can also post maps for your settings, as well as any relevant art (either created by you or used as inspiration for your work).

>>97332491There are several. They range in size from a large beach ball to a small moon depending on how intimidating they want to be, they can grow much larger if they want to kill everything in a given area, which is... surprisingly often. Suns range in personality from "if you do anything that angers me I will vaporize you before you realize you made a mistake" to "I will vaporize you just because the thought of life angers me that much". The closest thing to a friendly sun is Corona the Radiant Sun who has agreements with almost every major civilization to show up periodically and blast their farmlands with energy in exchange for being worshiped (suns don't feed on worship, Corona is just a massive narcissist, even by sun standards). On the other end of the spectrum there's Scorch the Merciless Sun whose hobby of nuking random villages was so unpopular that the three major kingdoms in its orbit put aside their differences and pooled their resources to try and kill it (they failed to kill Scorch but succeeded in banishing it through a hole in reality, it hasn't been seen since).In general if you're in my setting and you see a ball of fire hurtling through the sky in your general direction you should probably bow just to be safe. They're extremely petty.
>>97357626Do the suns ever fight God's?Do the Gods wrangle the suns?I would like to think suns are the natural enemy of the Gods in this world
>>97311994How powerful do you prefer your alchemy to be? Is it basically magic like in FMA, or more along the lines of mundane chemistry, and what do you need to consider for each approach?
In a world with a firmament, how far could you see? Could you see everything if you were on a mountain or would air density and pressure and such set a max view distance?
>>97356697I usually start with a story then add and subtract based on what leads to a better story. Usually this cascades into the smaller details.
What are some fantasy and sci-fi movies you should watch to inspire your games and players?
>>97350230>restore itBecause those were some obscure memes and nobody has a copy. They simply didn't migrate it from 1d4 when they had a copyA bunch of other shit that got cut got restored, because people simply had copies on their own.
>>97350230>>97350589Consider this:They cut the entire original approved movies list, just because. Took monumental edit war and eventually a DDoS to make them reconsider.So considerting the level of damage anticipated and how it ended, I say it's workable.2d4 meanwhile started out as 1:1 repository, but then the dumb fuck who set it up went with a machete across the pages, slashing whatever he felt like it, and openly saying that fuck keeping old shit, time to update.Which is why 2d4 is now run by Korean spam bots, I guess
Here's a thing. Or two.https://files.catbox.moe/s0ua8g.jpg

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere. Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency. If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help: >n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0 >Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128 >Need a starter dungeon?

>>97357782Since you're porting stuff over, if I were you I would look into the Traveller rules for procedurally generating animals and convert them to GW/MF. They're meant for alien animals, but they should work alright for mutants, although they have no mutations of their own of course. You can then add mutations on top if you want to.
>>97357798I was actually thinking of using the re-release of those tmnt rpg rules for mutant animals and weird mutations. Traveler might be better just for general use though. Main issue is that the tmnt books are only available physically right now. How is After the Bomb or Mutants in the Now for that type of stuff? I know they are both the TMNT rpg with the license filed off.
>>97358117TMNT isn't something I've ever played or read, sorry. Perhaps someone else will chime in.
>>97356228>>97357782>>97358117If you're happy to look at third-party stuff not really intended for Mutant Future (I don't know how compatible they are as I've never read MF, but it's probably closer than TMNT, I should think) I would recommend that you take a look at Planet Algol, a defunct blog for a weird sword and planet game that has a lot of material that you might be able to use.>planetalgol.blogspot.com
>>97357375>I am thinking of that room having a ladder up to a hatch right by the entrance of the dungeon - this being the lower level - to cut escaping players off.I'm not sure I understand how a potential escape route might serve to cut the PCs off. Are you suggesting the dungeon inhabitants have reinforcements up there who will come down? Or is the idea that PCs will not find the ladder/not think to use it to flee if they do find it, and the undead will thus use it to get to the exit before the players and maul them there?Anyway, as long as it's discoverable I can't personally see a huge issue with it as long as you're okay with the PCs using it to escape faster if they find it, instead. Multiple passages between levels is ideal.
Based uhh... *checks notes*Based Games Workshop?!
>>97358187Why would GW need to use AI? They've already refined themselves into a finely-tuned slop producing machine.
>>97358641Nah, now it' heckin based to hate AI, so that's what they do.The witch hunt against things like Grok has already begun, the pretense is that it was used to generate pics of little girls covered in 'glue' (which is admittedly sick and wrong, but it's still not the real thing and thus should not get people v&), or pics of real life women in 'compromising situations'. OTOH, fuck the AI companies for ruining the haradware market. Burn it all to ground.
>>97358722Grok is compromised
>>97358692Yeah, don't let the anons attack the billion dollar company! They wil thanky you, and reward you!
>>97358729Any large LLM is, obviously. Just wait for the bubble to burst, teh tech to mature a bit and then everyone will just run a local instance.Sadly, we have to live through a few years of globally shared development hell first.
Are interspecies pairings allowed in your game?

>>97356175Yes, we've used that DLC a lot, but it was released near the end of our campaign, so by that time there was no longer need for that. Especially after one of Exec's minions got promoted to a real Techie.
>>97354681I wish Cyberpunk was less like an MMO and more like a CRPG. Why the fuck is Elflines even a thing?>>97355771Well good for you, but the way I see it is Invention has 3 barriers to it being used effectively>you need a GM who's permissive but also understands the vanilla game balance>you need a player willing to invest in the Invention spec and also understands game balance>you need a game in which you have the eddies/downtime to use it effectivelyIt's like having an effective Media or Netrunner. Sure there are tables that are able to use the roles effectively, but I think they're few and far between.
>>97354390>genre premisesI don't think I've ever read a cyberpunk book where the inventor guy is anything more than a side character the main characters talk to when they need something built, or a guy who has built something previously but does not do so over the course of the book.
>>97355771I can confirm that all 3 benches are ALWAYS full in my game and I am constantly broke.The party fixer is subsidizing the most psychotic homebrew factory in our game when I'm not patching up completely avoidable armor damage.
>>97357999That's only because in a fucking book the protagonist is either going to be a hackerman or a dude with a gun (usually both) if the premise isn't something explicitly different.We do not compare fucking novels to RPGs because they are strictly and intrinsically different; Mr. Hiro Protagonist.

>>97358445Yeah that's the right one but mine didn't come with a hundred bjs
Judicators were weird in 1st. They never feel like they perform anywhere near well enough to cost 160pts per 5 models. They're...fine, I guess but I had to agree with my opponent that they're very underwhelming, rarely doing any real damage to any Nurgle unit and usually just dying. Now Vanguard-Raptors, those guys fuck. Bane of my fucking life lol
>>97357881Honestly even if they squat the whole range and you want to flip them, having those to buffer the price of the new stuff will be more than enough to cover anything you want to do next. I'm forever going to be kicking myself that I didn't snag a pile of these before they went through the roof
>>97358600Order made, this might be my last post if those 100 bjs are in one goWas good knowing you anons

Thread dedicated to Sci-Fi based discussion. 40k need not apply. [\spoiler]How goes your sci-fi setting, anon? I am currently running a Traveller game in a homebrew setting, and am getting lost in the sauce of stellar physics.
>>97352596There's different tools for different types of world building but I give the edge to Cepheus. I am biased though.I've been using Traveller (of which Cepheus is a variant) for decades to run my own settings. The tools for creating systems and sectors will help you make a setting quickly and the tech level standardization helps you manage setting consistency at a glance.That said, I have a copy of SWN and have been using the random tables with my Traveller games. I find it a great resource.
>>97354291You've just described stars Without Number space combat.
>>97356779I'll have to look back into it. I started reading the book then dropped it when I realised it was d20.
>>97353818>1. FTL travel is only possible with a real sentient person controlling the ship. Don't try brain in a jar, it backfires.How does that work in setting? Fluff-wise I mean? Just interested rather than going to give you shit about it.
>>97358491It only uses d20 for attack rolls, everything else is 2d6. From what I remember (it's been awhile) it could easily be shoved into something like traveller relatively easily.But, traveller (post mongoose) doesn't have the kind of complicated space ship combat you're talking about either. You haven't had to worry about vectors and shit in a sci-fi game since probably the eighties.

I have a question about When Attacking digivolve effects.If I digivolve into a Digimon using a When Attacking effect and that new Digimon has the same effect can I activate the new Digimon's When Attacking to digivolve again?
>>97357076No. When attacking only resolves when you declare the attack. Since the attack was not declared after the new effect is online, it doesn't trigger.
>>97357092Thanks for the clarification. I appreciate it.
>>97357104Conversely, if a digimon gains a "End of Attack" effect while attacking, it will be applied after battling.
how do i use stadistic in my deck building?

>>97350171To be honest on some level having the players spare the Ork governor only to realize "Oops! Planet is overrun with Orks now!" Might be a great way to get them in the paranoid "Innocence Proves Nothing" mindset of the inquisition.>>97352660So I've got ideas on how to let the villains show the more nobler aspects of themselves in the story but with consequences to each. The Khorne traitor guardsmen might spare civilians in places they conquer and actually offer chances for loyalist guards to surrender, which for the Inquisitor's retinue means they're gonna have to do purges of guys who were loyalist not too long ago or willing to surrender.For the Nurgle guy, maybe him and the Ecclesiarchy are both struggling over a pandemic and he "helpfully" tells the players that there are sick people trying to wash themselves in some "healing spring" that the Ecclesiarchy never bothers to clean and how he's worried its a vector for disease. Describe how it's all muck and slimy and the like (throwback to an anecdote Big E used in "The Last Church") and try to convince them to shut it down... only for it to turn out it really was a holy spring and by shutting it down the disease is ravaging even more people.With the Tzeentch guy, it might be that the planet he's on is a mess of political intrigue and Administratum bureaucracy. He helps them cut through red tape and backs them up against an entitled and obstinate nobility, only for it to turn out that he's using them to solidify his own power so he can finally institute the reforms he wanted. Finally for the Slaanesh guy I'm coming around to the idea of him maybe being a Griffith type that helps them throughout the story. There'll be a "fake out" Slaaneshi that's probably just a pirate while the real one is a Rogue Trader who'll probably wind up corrupted somehow, queue sacrificing his crew during a warp jump.
>>97356922>Might be a great way to get them in the paranoid "Innocence Proves Nothing" mindset of the inquisition.Seconding this. There's nothing that the inquisition likes more than someone taking a merciful or trusting option and getting instantly proven why the Inquisition does not do that shit. Very "constant vigilance!" type shit.
>>97335196As far as Jimmy Space was concerned, they were for the most part stopgap measures while he's priming his Perfect Rationalist Utopia What Don't Need No More Warp Travel N Shit to finally be ready. He was running a galactic conquest, and he was fine with anything that made that galactic conquest quicker and more efficient, because he alone could just change any of it later. None of it was intended to become calcified and continue for ten thousand years.
>>97339776It's mentioned in multiple places that Warp translation can hardly be done in a strong gravity well because going between dimensions while on one side your kilometers-long ship is being effected by the pull of a planet or a star may snap it in half, so I'd say either some sort of strong gravity generating device could dissuade and outright damage ships that try to enter or leave the Warp, or some equivalent of a Necron pylon or such that generates a null field could also act as a preventative measure. If you explain it with "xenos did it" or "archaeotech", anything can be plausible
>>97357326Something I'll give the Owlcat games credit for: there are moments where you go against the advice of inquisitors and try to do the more "humane" option only to learn things are worse now because of it.

>>97357971Dunno, man. I don't think they have historical accuracy as a main concern, guess it' just sounded cool>>97357935see>>97357991 >>97358033; by the setting's present time a lot of territory initially invaded by Hell has been in their grasp for some centuries. At first they have the corrupt and actual satanic cults on their side, over time it's just normal life for a lot of people born into it. I think it's kind of like Chaos in Warhammer, if you are exposed to it for long enough it twists your mind into thinking it's just fine and normal to be so

Starting to think the tank splitter on the prussians is a total scam>Yeah all units are super squishy>Heres a sword that rolls better ig, maybe you get a crit maybelike yeah it could be good, but is the squish worth it?In Campaign I have a Lieu with 3d to melee, its possible to crit sure, but the overall squish of my troopsIDK anyone here play Prussian, I could really use advice I dont think I "Get" them, Fire teams advice, builds, anything
>>97358607Critical is the least of a tanksplitter's abilities +1injury dice and auto 6 means that on average you're AT LEAST getting a down result on any -3 armor modelsWith a good Fireteam prep (ie a few shots from your mate and a grenade from you), you cash in all those blood markersWithout even a crit that's likely to flatten even the most armoured opponent
