Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to TSR-era D&D, derived systems, and compatible content.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching meta-plots 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.>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

>>96465759It's just helpful because it allows automatic post filtering.
>>96463817I checked the page 103. It was okay, but some prices needed tweaking. Now I can set the multiplier to 1.0. Cheers!
>>96463817Based advice.
>>96465875Hence the tip: Those websites have built-in blocking features for folks who are easily triggered like xirself.
>>96463817Why the hell was this post deleted, it's not trolling in the slightest, it's genuine game advice.If you're gonna do gold spent = XP at least the carousing rules has a stamp of approval. Doubly rewarding players for spending money in ways they'd normally spend it is retarded. Your reward for spending money on a Cure spell is that you get Cured. If players don't level fast enough put out more treasure or lower the XP requirements per level.

>>96465840No thanks. Last time I bought an antique from a creepy stranger, I was stuck trying to get bloodstains out of the carpet for just over a month.
I'm unsure why does Sora insist on a feathered butt but otherwise I like my Blue Bird of Unhappiness.
>>96465590That's just called bad character writing

>>96464400They mostly take people in desperate situations and trade off favours. There's mention of long-term arrangements/covenants, where a survivor is invested with power in exchange for a long-term partnership. Going by the cards, they feed on the survivors themselves or receive blood sacrifices in exchange for their support. No sign of old-fashioned written contracts, it seems all they run on is a handshake, drop of blood and a promise.
>>96465777>Google docs says 38.You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.>Thanks! I figured it'd serve well as a more traditionally Xianxiaish outfit once the cyan/cultivation markings starts to set in. Could be his sect robes in the third stage.They’d work well for sect robes, yeah.>Thinking about a scene a bit where the mindscape/dreamscape is starting to properly get formed and how much that alone could change ones perception of themselves. Or just how they see sleeping in general.You’d probably start cultivating Divine Delusion while sleeping.
>>96465817For context, I'm wondering what Adyseach might request in exchange for temporary companionship and ten years worth of knowledge from him, if I don't want to actually offer him a ticket off of Duskmourn.Maybe 200cp's worth of jumper power is enough to pay off the whole debt, since that's what it costs to take him as a companion by default. To something planebound like Adyseach, 200cp's worth of power might be an equivalent exchange in its own right.Just wary about making deals with demons, you know?
>>96465889>You gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.I intend to! No worries in that aspect.>They’d work well for sect robes, yeah.Mmhm I sorta like the idea of sect robes going from fairly plain. Monk like things like he wore as a novice to more fanciful xianxia stuff like you'd usually expect as you go up the ranks/Stages.>You’d probably start cultivating Divine Delusion while sleeping.True. I just like thinking on the details a bit. Given constructing mental defenses is important before moving onto a certain step after the scapes emerged fully. I imagine midna helping with that a little bit of probing testing his mental defenses....Though I'm sort of imagining a dreamscape version of a tower defense game or plants vs zombies.
>>96465965>Mmhm I sorta like the idea of sect robes going from fairly plain. Monk like things like he wore as a novice to more fanciful xianxia stuff like you'd usually expect as you go up the ranks/Stages.Makes sense.>Given constructing mental defenses is important before moving onto a certain step after the scapes emerged fully.There are probably whole books written on good practices for mental defenses.>...Though I'm sort of imagining a dreamscape version of a tower defense game or plants vs zombies.It’s important to be able to fend off attackers, not just endure them.

>>96465264I've tried. There's not an ounce of faith in my body.
>>96462232>"hard-core blood and lasers sci-fi mech game">"we are so sorry we touch upon these bad things, please forgive us. Here's a safety system to use incase the aspects of war make you feel bad vibes"God's, that's pathetic.
>>96465641True, if an "ugh, can we fucking not, please?" doesn't fix the problem then you're either at the wrong table or you're at the wrong table and either way you oughta fuckin leave- Either you're a fuckin pussy or the other players/DM are faggotsUnfortunately, if you pick up a game from Pilot.net, you've already forked over $25 a week two months in advance before you find out this is a transbian dilation campaign.
>>96465854Why would I even bother playing a game that's pussified slop from setting to mechanics?
>>96465882Because every other robofuck game I've ever seen is a bunch of samey Gundamslop and you can just play with your personal friendgroup (until the faggots want to go back to D&D 5e after three sessions jesus fuck I hate it here I never do anything right I'm gonna kill myself)
The only acceptable magic element are Fire, Water, Air, Earth, and Aether.These elements have been a staple for thousands of years across every civilization in history.From the americas to Europe to Asia. Using anything else stupid.
>>96462373Problem is that you're equating pieces of a shattered image with the production of the hologram itself. They're not the same or equivalent, same as how Aether is not the same or equivalent to the four elements.
>>96422536Aether is the greek duct tape element though? While void was that one japanese element of the mind, replacing either wood or metal in the chinese 5 together with air
>>96446457>>96457331>>96457847This anon put it best >>96463077>Aether is the greek duct tape elementAether is supposed to be everything the other 4 elements are not.Kinda makes sense why it doesnt really work as an element anymore, we studied reality more and discovered that Aether was more than just 1 thing. Now we know its got Light and Void and Gravity and Time and whatever else
>>96463149And that is exactly why Aether doesn't work. If elements are literally elemental, then there can't be a fifth "misc." element that's for a bunch of other stuff, it only tells you your elements aren't complete and those in the bin need to be sorted as well.
>>96462373Yeah literal reality warping should not be accessible. Why I don’t let players take the more broken spells.
So, now you need to decide. Do you close your eyes to what you've seen and go back to sleep? Or do you come with this psycho burnout and do the impossible against the unbelievable and keep the future at bay for another day? What's it going to be? In or out?Yeah? You dumb shit.>Thread Question:What was your Cell's introduction to The Program/The Conspiracy? Did you use a pre-written scenario, or make your own thing?>Previous thread:>>96285079>Unofficial Resources:https://delta-green.neocities.org
>Drug cartels have been in the cultural and political zeitgeist for about ten or so years now >Arc Dream has done nothing regarding the War on Drugs and has instead shelved The Disciples of the Worm and Tiger Transit >Meanwhile FoDG just released a campaign about investigating the heroin trade It's amazing how much Arc Dream bragged about bringing DG to the modern day and has done absolutely nothing interesting >Hey guys do you want another scenario about a cult in an isolated town or what about scientists researching some sort of anomalous formula
>>96463216They use Christian cultists way too much.If we got some kind of religious cultists why not Islamic ones?
>>96465035They did that in Iconoclasts
>>96463216Honestly, the Fate should be taken out of NYC and rewritten as a cult related to the Mexican cartels.
>>96437208So, how are the mechanics for this? I hear a lot about the setting, but is it actually, you know, mechanically interesting?

>>96465884No, the trident was. That image is probably 40k stuff
>>9646543840keks aren't beaten down enough yet to have all the demons removed from their game. Give it 2 more editions
>>96465968They can be. The mortal side is far more elite and has a load of expensive but powerful/tough units while the daemon side can be far more swarmy and tends to have much larger numbers on the tables.
>>96465987Good to know, I'll hold off for now... IF they're getting a big release and possible split stuff with a possible Warhammer quest box I might as well wait for that.
>>96465968If you do anything you should wait, the leaks mentioned blightking refreshes, fucking blightkings, if theyre not safe, nothing is.I would wait until we have seen what comes for them this edition.

>>96463609I am the anon who asked, thanks!
>>96465189Again it's not a matter of being afraid or not but whatever I give up, keep on with your impromptu evenings with absolutely no planning whatsoever, carrying around games half of which dont even get looked at
>>96465189NTA but we get what you are saying. I am spoiled with a group that will play almost everything I put in front of them, everyone is extremely good with picking up all the rules from a single teach and play competitively the first time around. We still say "hey, I'd like to play X next time". If the stars align they all might even learn the rules beforehand (ok that happened exactly once). But the biggest thing is you avoid someone/you taking a bunch if big boxes with you only to hear naaah anon I'm not in the mood for 'german autobahn autism today'. Plus finding what game to play next is far easier that way
>>96465312>>96464173You're welcome anons.
just printed an organizer for C&C Napoleonics and I can safely say the worst aspect of this game is setting it up
Just got this today, what will my group think of it?
>>96463127which pic are commenting on again?but yeah it seems that stances are only for PCs though I haven't read the rules, just some googling

>>96463673All me btw
>>96465948and what did you think of it?
>>96465994Still waiting for someone to tell me.
>your party enters a town>a kid bumps into you>you notice he stole a jawbreaker that was in your pocketHow does your character respond?
>>96465833I would adopt it though? I'm just saying I've never had the need to question my players so far.
>+100 repliesGuys... not again
>>96465850Then why go to this much effort to dissect a question that by your own admittance you'd have no use for ever?>>96465857People seem to be terminally bored here.
>>96465941>Then why go to this much effort to dissect a question that by your own admittance you'd have no use for ever?I didn't go through much effort, I immediately saw the problems and pointed them out.And then you got mad since you've been defending it for 50+ posts apparently
>>96465857It's fun to watch That Guy seethe over getting filtered.

>>96465602Yea, unironically, that's just outright my mistake for not going back to check through the old list first. At the very least this answers the question of if she's actually supposed to be chill, or if the unholy is a sign of sinister intent. Seems like she's chill but has enough followers baying for blood they're dragging her vibe down.
Whats with the autistic rage against fun meme builds?
>>96465692Depends on the edition and your table entirely, I imagine powergamers online just hate the idea of not being optimal but you really can fuck yourself hard depending on the scenario (just look at the innocent merman questioning how to get around on land last thread)
>>96465713The appeal of ttrpgs for me is making a dumb character concept, but playing them straight in universe. Like a wizard who only knows chain lightning and uses it for every solution, or a barbarian master combat carpenter who specialized in making boats for some reason.
>>96465770Your examples are more extreme than what most people would consider fun meme builds and go into actively trolling everyone else at the table territory.

>>96462297Honestly? give it a few sets and check back inSet 1 fucking sucks and set 2 still looks boring.t. I play aggro and have never lost in Gundam.
>>96464644Most shops around me don't host weekly tournaments for mtg anymore. They have commander night and do pre-release, and that's pretty much it. Contrast this to when I played (pre-covid), where you could find a firing event for every format except vintage at least once a week during the week and once on weekends.Part of it is Arena, part of it is the ridiculously packed release schedule, but ultimately Wotc has said for years their main customers aren't those who play frequently and competitively, so it makes sense they'd eventually cater to their main customers.
>>96465734Oh my stores haven't been running tournaments for like 3 years now, just the odd prerelease. But people do play EDH, twice a week even.
>>96462297It's fun, shame there's no fucking players here though
