>>97222407I'm waiting to see if they release the urban war gynoids as a box again instead of individually. The Hydra box also swapped out the different chunks of hydra for the little skullpiles and the mother, which is cool but I'd like the different markers for the hydra more.

Several skills and mutations from Companion got dumped along with scavved power armor and the power armor customization rules. That said most of the skills did make it. Tribals kinda got screwed, they lose the most out of the bands that didn't get outright dropped to wait for supplements, and all the beastmaster rules also got pulled (presumably for further playtesting)I've been doing a comprehensive re-read as I have the time, it's just slow going because of the kid>is it hard to port stuffThe core system is virtually unchanged. There are a few minor tweaks and new rules to account for but the old points values should be close enough to at least spitball things. It very much feels like an update that rolls in Kickstart the Wasteland and bits of Companion rather than a complete refresh. On the flip side it *definitely* isn't the omnibus edition everyone was begging for.
>>97210948>How come there aren't more Napoleonic inspired fantasy settings?mostly because of this >>97217171, it doesn't translate well into a fantasy setting since many fantasy tropes just invalidate the whole thing; at best you could come up with a setting with nations, characters and events inspired in the Napoleonic era, me thinksi can think of 3 on the spot, tho, and one of them is an actual skirmish game>Silver Bayonet>Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell>Temeraire, His Majesty's Dragon

>>97225416Never read it but this one too. There was a rulelite in 10mm with grimdark cubeheades and Napoleonic a e s t h e t i c but I don't know if it got past beta. Mechanically its not hard to think of ways to have it work, I think its that its boring to most people interested in fantasy.

>>97223934I actually appreciate your response, anon.>tidesThe sun actually causes tidal action on Earth as well, just not to the same extent.>lunar measurements and cultural impactPerhaps I should have mentioned it previously, but my plan from the start was to have two suns (binary star system). The rotation of these stars would certainly cause more tidal action than our real life sun, and would generate cycles/measurements and culture for the various peoples on the planet. Would this "save" the setting in your eyes, or would you prefer more? I've been considering having a visible, but thin ring around the planet as well (too big of a ring or too many would make nights brighter than Earth due to light refraction).
>>97225291NP, seemed like a genuine question and an interesting concept I hadn't ever considered. Which seems obvious and silly in retrospect but there it is. >sun effects tides also Yes. >binary star effects it more, cultural relevance That works for me. I think the main concern I was having is a setting that's far away enough from player world experience to be relatable. Humans have been deeply influenced by astrological observation so cutting out a significant part of that has challenges. I think your ideas would fill in close enough and pose some interesting effects on the game world.
>>97219278My favourite one of these is still Legend of Dragoon.The Dragon Campaign occurred long enough ago that the Winglies who enslaved humanity are considered myth. But go far enough off the beaten track and you find the ruins of their flying cities. Winglies themselves have massively decreased in both population and magical power.Yet in the corners of the world are the obvious scars of the war. The Valley of Corrupted Gravity and other places are corrupted by the clash of magic. The monsters running around constantly are mostly old wingly creations.Its maybe not as hopeful as the you're looking for, since the plot of the game is basically entirely about the old world being more magical than the current one, and the heros are mostly there cleaning up the last remnants of the Wingly's plans.

>>97221426I don't particularly like trying to 'correct' people, especially since i'm not really a drawfag, but, just in my own experience, for example, if it were me, I probably wouldn't draw women with the face folds and wrinkles. They make them look a lot older. I tried removing it, and lo and behold she looks like 30 years younger to me.Of course, it's clear you've got a good 'skill base' so the potential is there.
>>97222206Yeah, face details are tricky, requiring a lot of practice with line thickness and balancing a shade color with a solid border. I'm still ultra noob on shading myself, so for my own morale I've been trying to hold off on expressions like big smiles that my autism tells me would absolutely involve creases and dimples and the likes.
>>97221426All drawfags are welcome here as long as you're not a dumb asshole or spamming fetishy stuff.As for unasked for critique... lines are a kinda way jagged. I have the same problem and some advice I got was to loosen the pencil/stylus grip and cut back on caffeine. Also tracing or practicing with stencils over and over again can help stabilize your muscles as they get stronger.
Requesting a fiend patron. In a warlock only game where the main gimmick is that the party is on a journey to unseal their respective patrons in exchange for a place int the new world they seek to create. The other gimmick is that all our patrons fucking hate each other.I chose the fiend patron, a wendigo looking freak the has an ancient beef with one of the parties celestial patron. In order to piss him of more, my patron has taken up pretending to angel with holy intentions to steal followers and potential pact makers from the celestial.
>>97215275Gonna give this one a shot. Went with a defensive pose to sell that she's a support fighter, and I'm gonna see what I can do for clothing. If you have any beats you'd like me to hit, lemme know, if I'm still drawing I'll try to incorporate them.

Isnt this just another weekend smut general? This has no place on /tg/
Hey /tg/ I'm playtesting an initiative system that's been tried before in other systems and is detailed nicely on "Tabletop Curiosity Cabinet"The system uses Meyer (and Kieth Farrell's modern adaptation) of "Vor, Nach, Gleich, Indes" as steps in a fight.Basically, the player with the initiative chooses an action ("Vor"). The enemy chooses a reponse ("Nach"). The dice are rolled to determine an outcome ("Gleich") and the movement into the next state ("Indes").Practically it looks like: Player A chooses a bind. Player B chooses to parry. Both players resolve a dice roll. The resolution will determine who has initiative for the next system.Very fencing-like, and makes initiative more of a "push-pull" based on success rather than a "you-go, I-go" traditional style.I believe systems like TRoS and their derivatives (like Song of Swords) use a similar sort of initiative style.My questions for the thread:1. While this system works pretty well for individual combats, it struggles when there are multiple combatants. It also falls into the same trap of "you go, I go" which is; in a real fight, you're probably waiting for an opening (e.g. an enemy attacking an ally) to take advantage of in order to strike. I wonder if anyone has creative solutions to this problem?2. Are there initiative systems that you find work well? Anyone forego initiative entirely in favor of fully narrative initiative (e.g. Daggerheart)?
I'm also thinking about action declaration, as well. As it stands there are several ways for "maneuvers" (beyond "strike" or "parry") to be resolved.1. Player A vs Player B. Player A declares a maneuver and rolls against a static defense. Outcome depends on roll. (5E and similar derivatives) 2. Player A vs Player B. Player A rolls to attack, player B rolls to defend and a successful attack may also allow for additional "special effects" (such as choosing the hit location, bypassing armor, disarming an opponent, etc) (e.g. Mythras)3. Player A and Player B declare an offensive "maneuver" and defensive "maneuver" respectively. Result of the maneuver is based on the opposed roll (e.g. Song of Swords)4. Player A rolls against a static defense (similar to 5E) but also may perform "mighty deeds" based on the result of that die (specifically DCC).Lots of folks like Mythras for all of the choices, but I find it leads to a lot of analysis paralysis. Same as any system that includes a long list of maneuvers. Mighty deeds is sort of elegant in that if you roll the mighty deed die high enough you get to do the cool thing. Very cinematic. I wonder if there's some middle ground where you can take a roll-off system (offensive roll vs defensive roll), allow the players to narrate what they *intend to do* without referring to some list of maneuvers, compare the different successes (I'm a big fan of roll and compare successes) and, based on the number of bonus successes you roll, have a way to determine the effect of the outcome.
>>97221155You're missing the potential for double blind declarations.
>>97221759I truly am. I suppose it mimics what occasionally happens in fencing. Making decisions anticipating an outcome rather than brute force reaction.
>>97197145>2. Are there initiative systems that you find work well?7th Sea 1st edition.Round is divided into 10 phases.You roll a number of d10 equal to your Panache (2-6) and whatever you rolled shows in which phases you act. You can have more than one action per phase. Whenever you expend an action a die with that number rolled is removed from your initiative pool. If multiple characters have actions in the same phase the first to act would be the one with higher sum of initiative dice still on the table.For example Character rolls 2, 3, 8 (Panache 3) while a Pirate rolls 3,9 (Panache 2). Character expends action in phase 2 to throw a bunch of Brutes overboard the ship. In phase 3 both Character and Henchmen have an action, but since Character expended his phase 2 die his initiative total is 11 instead of 13 and thus Henchmen would act first. It may seem convoluted at first, but after you get accustomed to it its fucking perfect for swashbuckling adventures that 7th Sea is made for.
>>97224032No this genuinely seems so fun. Does this result in simultaneous actions?
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!

>>97222036Any effect that refers to attacking is specifically talking about attack declaration, if a card doesn't see the attack declaration it can't use "when x attacks" effects. Rosemon wouldn't be able to redirect the attack since the newly played one wouldn't have seen attack declaration.
