The DM reveals that all this time, the 'Chaotic Evil invading soldiers' you've been fighting and slaughtering were actually Lawful Good innocent untrained peasants. They were tricked/convinced into believing they were fighting for survival and defense of their impoverished homeland.THE PALADIN FALLS AND LOSES ALL POWERS!!!Do you feel like a hero yet?
>>97260521also if it was enemy combatants you were hitting with white phosphorus it can be argued that the action was justifiable which is what the devs, probably in their concern that someone would misinterpret their message, opted to avoid. you could still get the horrors of violence narrative in by showing the enemy soldiers mangled and burned out by chemical weapons to similar effect. Would it be better? Probably. Less ham fisted for selling the Walker committing needless atrocities when he could’ve just left dubai narrative. I’m not saying the story is flawless but when people get insulted by it and say its bad just because of that I get a little irritated. Yeah theres stories that get the point of “violence is bad” across more subtly but I see people miss the mark on those constantly too.
>>97252494The DM falls and loses his players.
>>97260659>Spec Ops the Line is great at making someone question if the act of war is worth glamorizing in game format, but it's shit at making someone question their morals in regards to why they might play the game to begin with via their connection to their stand-in.never really considered it as a factor, but now that I look back at it I see there are a few parts that were meant to make the player feel like they were a driving force in whats happening when there’s no out. And yeah that’s frustrating. There were probably some more natural avenues to making the player reflect without putting them on the defensive, and like I said this game isn’t perfect but I wouldn’t condemn it to “shit game” like I see people on many forums opt to do. And it is shit at making the player question their own morals decision making outside of “how bad do I feel about walker doing what is currently happening.” Regardless thanks for giving my post a genuine discussion even though I was half trolling with it and trying to bait a reaction with it. Hope your new year is well.
>>97260707You too, anon. Happy new years to you as well. I suppose I'm mainly willing to entertain discussion on Spec Ops the Line because the game's message or attempt to send a message does relate a lot to the kinds of scenarios a lot of DMs might try in the "DO YOU FEEL BAD YET FOR KILLING THOSE PEOPLE?" scenario presented by OP. It's easy to give a knee-jerk response of "No, because they're not real people" or "No, because you forced me into this situation", it's harder for most to articulate just why these situations feel so unfair and not some form of sour grapes over being lectured.
>>97252494D&D's morality system is pointlessly limited so I wouldn't deal with it anyway. All a paladin should be beholden too is their braindead church dogma.
I would like to talk about the Chronicles of Darkness game line Deviant: The Renegades, or more specifically, one major upcoming supplement. Deviant was released in late 2021, and has had three additional sourcebooks since then. A new supplement, Black Vans, has been in playtesting for a while, and is currently being previewed.I am not being paid or sponsored to promote this book in any way. I am just very fascinated by it, and indeed, I already ran a mini-campaign using the playtest material.Deviant is, by default, a game about playing angsty, scarred superheroes who either fight world-manipulating conspiracies or work for them. Black Vans is a toolkit full of variant rules, quick NPC creation, variant character types, and variant genres. These variants range from the minor to the dramatic, completely overhauling what were once non-negotiable, foundational themes and mechanics. Maybe your character is not angsty or scarred at all, perhaps they are a """""regular human""""" like John Wick or Batman, or the campaign might have nothing to do with world-manipulating conspiracies.These variant genres include cyberpunk, high fantasy, post-apocalypse, space opera, and superhero emergence.This is a beefy supplement. For example, one chapter alone dedicates 38,000+ words to playing other monsters of the Chronicles of Darkness: Beasts, changelings, demons, Sin-Eaters, hunters (entirely separate from the variant rules for """natural""" superpowers), mages, mummies, Prometheans, vampires, and werewolves. No additional supplements beyond Deviant are necessary; the rules are self-contained, allowing the group to play a monster mash of an urban fantasy setting without needing a daunting 7+ books. And yes, they are supposed to be balanced against one another, so a vampire in the same group as a full-fledged mage is probably some older Kindred.(Continued.)
>>97223439That's why I made an oWoD conversion of it.
>>97250334I am afraid I do not see the issue. There is really nothing stopping you from flavoring your Mutant's abilities as grotesquely as possible and taking a high-Magnitude Conspicuous Appearance Scar. You could also take the Outsider Form if you want to be an actual alien.>I'd rather it was telling you not so subtly to build Alex Mercer, y'know?The [PROTOTYPE] series is listed as one of the inspirations in Shallow Graves.
>>97217938One aspect of the space opera genre in Black Vans that I find goofy, in a good way, is how even the lowest-powered (but still, of course, capable of mowing down goons due to the goon combat rules), just-a-bit-more-than-mortal characters are capable of toppling an interstellar empire in a fairly short amount of time. They do not even need the backing of a full-on rebellion.Somewhat like Star Wars, except taken to a more blatant extreme.
Sick thread, been looking to get into Deviant for a while, thanks for all the info
Is it possible to 'deconstruct' a different splat with Deviant? Basically making a dude that has all the powers and weaknesses of a vampire, but it's not a vampire? Like, a lab-made recreation of what a vampire should be like
They always tell you to try not playing D&D, but they never tell you that basically every game other than 5e is almost exclusively played by autistic (and not the fun kind) powergaming social retards who either never say a word, or only communicate by being the loudest one talking over everyone else about their hyperfixation that nobody else gives a fuck about. The kind of people who post anime girl reaction memes and go "this is my character's face right now" or unironically show up with cropped porn as their character art like it's normal.There's a reason nobody touched this hobby until they saw fellow normies playing it on some podcast, I wouldn't even want to talk to the average sperglord who plays these games let along be stuck with them for 4 hours in a game that is supposed to be about social interaction.

>>97257697Eh, I kinda saw this coming, just because it's the same thing that happened earlier in the game with blockers/floodgates.Bandai saw something slowing the game down, makes removal easier until the only way to win is OTK because nothing sticks on the board after you pass turn. I still think they should have printed a "floodgate" keyword so they could print cheap removal that affects only them/blockers, and give decks answers to things that stall their game plan without fucking over every card in existence. Just like they should have printed more your turn protection to deal with aces instead of letting every deck clear level 5s for free.I'm curious to see if dual cards give some sort of viable defensive option to kick the cycle off again, but I can't see how. Unless they're security bombs stapled to consistency cards, so security can actually be relevant again.
>>97259872Im new to the game. What exactly are "floodgates"? I have seen them mentioned but dont really know what it means
>>97260577It's a term borrowed from Yugioh, and in our case it refers to the rookies that are designed to slow the game down by preventing your opponent from gaining memory or cheating costs. "Can't gain memory except by Tamer effects," "Can't reduce play costs," "Can't play Digimon by effects," rookies with those kind of effects.
>>97260621>It's a term borrowed from YugiohIf people aren't allowed to use U for Blue, then you can't use the term "floodgate".

Summon the demon leaders one by one to a prison fort and execute them on the spot.Commune is a 5th-level spell costing 100 XP a pop, only gives a yes-or-no answer, and requires the deity contacted know. Then the Planar Binding spells you'd be using to drag them before you are limited to 6 HD for a 5th, 12 HD for a 6th, and 18 HD for an 8th.The base of knowledge and casting to pull this off already qualifies as "send heroes to find the demon" by most settings' level-scaling conventions, and it's a rather costly approach to such.

What is the correct way to handle female priestess? Historically women weren't part of the clergy, so you don't have a lot of references to drawn from in regards to their attitude.
Elara was leaning against a pillar, completely mesmerized. Her face was flushed, her breath was shallow, and her thumb was nervously tracing the rim of her cup. As the minstrel hit a particularly soulful high note, Elara unconsciously bit her lower lip, her gaze fixed on the singer’s throat.Nadya’s tail gave a slow, predatory twitch. She saw the "maths" of desire written all over the other woman."Careful, Little Bird," Nadya rasped, her voice cutting through the music like a serrated blade. "You bite that lip any harder, you will bleed into your wine. Is waste of good vintage."Elara jumped, her face turning a shade of crimson that rivaled a sunset. "Nadya! I... I wasn't... the music is just very moving."Nadya hopped down from the sill, landing with a silent, heavy grace. She leaned into Elara’s space. She looked at the minstrel, then back at Elara, a slow, mocking smirk pulling at her scarred lip."He has eyes like a kicked puppy and hands that have never seen a day of real work," Nadya whispered. ," Nadya whispered.

>>97259383I know the dangers of vampires, they're no easy targets. I've been preparing her for a while, teaching her everything from firearms handling and homemade explosives to exorcism rituals and surveillance so I hope she'll manage it. I'm interested in seeing how she behaves or a real assignment, a pile of ash is a pile of ash (or a stiff), doesn't matter how she does it. Of course, I'll have someone really close, someone she has never seen before and won't have a reason to suspect. To answer your question - ghouls are slaves to the vampire, doing their master's dirty work. They consume the tainted blood of a vampire in return for a fraction of it's power. They don't die to sunlight or any other vampire-specific weakness, bullets and fire still work. I was considering them because they could be easier to capture (in theory) but they're still human, I don't know if she's ready for dealing with that yet. >>97259391A holy ward is never a bad idea but everyone who's capable of performing such miracles is either too far away or unable to help. I'm not really a specialist when it comes to hauntings, I know the basic methods of dealing with spooks but I'm not confident in sending her to deal with something I'm not that experienced with.>she gets turned, all her family & friends get killed, & your cell get compromised.I hope not, I'd be a shame to lose such a promising recruit. That's also the reason she's being kept in the dark for now. >>97259438Plenty of vampires in big cities. They're inhuman enough to justify killing, all these silly folk tales and legens do wonders. I've mad sure it's a weak one, been watching it for 2 weeks. Still following the same routine, trying to blend in with humans. They're great actors, pretending to care about their "family" and such, even when no one is looking. These ones are usually the weakes when it comes to my and my friends experience.
>>97255909I don't know the demon in my book is pretty chill when he doesn't want out or is demanding my life essence. I'd be remiss to listen to his ramblings though, seems a tad unstable. Tells me to "watch out for the machines" whatever that means.
>>97243514Funnily enough our invitation to the England gathering does have a crow on it. Apparently it'll be multiple day event, there'll be a costumed ball and everything. I'm not entirely comfortable with them asking me to bring the chair though.>>97245407Well I didn't mean to assume, I had just remembered from earlier Fed discussion. Perhaps they might be less careless employers, I don't know. Best of luck with your kraken hunt, the submersible looks useful but dangerous.
>>97260252Oh that is definitely pointing to the Abbey. I hope you are well off, they get picky about their dues. Sounds like the chair and the party is, perchance, leading to an execution to top off the ball. That or a hunt involving the werewolf. One can never be too sure unless you know the host. I am going to be stricken with envy if it isn't an execution. Positively green with envy, I can feel it.Also feel free to tell me if I overstep, but could you ask your little friend in the book if they know anything about a rituals of renewal that happen at the year's turn? Everything I found about this script circle translates it as such but I can feel things are a miss and it is driving me up the wall.
>>97259929>To answer your question - ghouls are slaves to the vampire, doing their master's dirty work.Shit man, I know about Renfields. Why call them ghouls though? They drink their master's blood, they don't eat flesh. I still think you're playing this a bit risky anyway. So many things can go wrong and get a promising young hunter killed through no fault of their own.

>>97256957Are they human? I don't think anything that evolved on that planet would need sleep, at least not in the way we do. How would plants grow with constant sunlight, would they still need have cycles of producing sugars if they can just get all their energy from a constant source? How do the people dissipate heat on the sun side?
>>97256935In real world it was a fairly nebulous term (I don't think it actually was an official ship classification in the same way light cruiser or armored cruiser were) but primarily referred to a cruiser with battleship-scale guns.In this case it's just a terminology difference. The humans refers to ships bigger and more heavily armed than cruisers as battleships, While the Seirans consider their biggest ships to be more heavily armed and armored versions of their standard cruisers, and so call them battlecruisers or heavy cruisers. Seiran battleships/battlecruisers also do perform more like big cruisers, since they're fast for their size and there's more overlap in armament size between them and cruisers.
>>97256935Now you triggered my autism. Basically there's multiple flavors battlecruisers.The one people think of is usually the british flavor. A battleship sized ship, with downstripped armor (enough to stand up to cruisers, but might as well be paper against proper battleships) standard battleship caliber guns but less of them (they usually lost a turret compared to a battleship of the same era) and more speed. They were designed to destroy cruisers and act as scouts, and since scouting groups were usually made of cruisers, to destroy enemy scouts and screens. They won't last long in the line of battle because no fucking armor as the bongs learned painfully when their battlecruisers started exploding during the battle of Jutland. Although there's more to it than that, the battlecruisers had dropped all ammo handeling safety to achieve higher firerates, so good hits were likely to blow the entire thing up.The other is the Imperial German flavor. Also battleship sized, fast enough to keep up with cruisers, with better armor and the same number of guns but at the low end of what you'd consider battleship scale. These were meant to fill the same role as the british BCs, but were also intended to survive in the line of battle, hence the better armor compared to british BCs. They actuall held up okay during Jutland, although there were plenty of losses anyway.Battlecruisers eventually became obsolete with technonlogical improvment. Once fast battleships became a thing (just before or during WW2), there was no longer a need for a ship that sacrificed armor and/or firepower for speed. You could have a proper battleship going fast, why build a battlecruiser? Things like ships carrying floatplanes for scouting also meant the role of destroying scouts could no longer be fully fulfilled by them.
>>97256935Think of it as a Glass Cannon: Battleship Armament + Cruiser Armor. The problem is that they were rarely used this way and they just grouped them together with Battleships, wasting their speed advantage, and ending in battle roles for which they weren't designed for. Also Battleships eventually became just as fast as Battlecruisers making the later obsolete.

Imagine playing this SOCIAL activity alone.lol. That's it, not even an lmao
Man, I don't care what anyone says about AI. Being able to use it to create variants on the same image is so useful for creating aliens for my sci-fi game.Life is too long to spend forever pissing around on pinterest.
>>97258664Most of the people kvetching about AI images are furry/tranny artfags pissed off they aren't multimillionaires yet. I pay them no heed.
>>97258664Do you print them out?
>>97260546Nah, I use Obsidian to keep my notes and write up together and just throw them in there and Foundry VTT which I use to run the actual game/keep the mechanics in.

>>97260421>-2 cards is the main issueSee I haven't gotten enough hands on experience with the game to know if these synergies will pay off, but the existance of them makes me want to build decks to figure them out. In theory a ramping effect can be good for a large monsters and or angels deck. The game is subtly different in how it evaluates drawing and cheating in cards, so it inherently looks useful but only if you can put that mana to use. Theoretically, a "void matters" deck doesn't want to spend too much time building up sites to get the max benefit of the remaining void spaces.
>>97256158Post hating on the game were met with replies defending the game so poster grew more hostile towards the game.
>>97260556Yeah I love the way the AI art looks so good, fuck the haters my dude
Look, it's even using the same playbook for hating on FAB! They have nothing actually against Sorcery, yet they must seethe every time it's brought up. What's hilarious is this game is the furthest removed as possible from AI because it showcases traditional artwork only. Just flag useless posts like that and move on. The trolls can't actually hurt you.
>>97260710Do you like the artwork on the precon deck boxes?

Perchance's little persona generator can be hilarious sometimes. I've been called a cuck and a manlet in the past three days
>>97253446Pathetic. I don't know what's more pathetic: generating Slaangor or your attempt to humanise it (where are the pincers?)
>>97260558why are you such a cunt all the time?
>>97260155At first I thought you were schizoposting about something like AI requiring human sacrifice
>>97260643that will probably be part of Mage: the Awakening 5th edition if it ever comes out
