I've been working on a game for about five years and wanted to share it, but I can't seem to upload pdfs anymore. Why is this? I thought /tg/ was the hub for sharing rules systems. A lot of the stuff I played while designing was downloaded from the sharethread, are they also suffering from this?

>>97263317I wish I'd gone in for a proper school bus size, but I just pretend it's the short bus.
>>97263320And the last one. Again, a little undersized to be a proper monster truck, but I like the way it came out nonetheless with the Boneshaker skull on top, fit to the engine and the spine running off the back. The hardest part was getting all the tubes into the...radiator, I guess, in the front, but it looks proper menacing.

>>97262467Protection From Evil wouldn't protect you at all from something like Insanity. It's pretty specific in what it does:>the barrier blocks any attempt to possess the warded creature (by a magic jar attack, for example) or to exercise mental control over the creature (including enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject, such as dominate personKeyword here is "ongoing control." Unless whatever effect renders your character Insane also grants someone else control over your character, you're shit out of luck. Better hope the cleric has a straitjacket and/or a scroll of Heal saved for you.
>>97250122AC is only reliable if your enemies do no have intelligence or DM doesn't use NPC WBL. Otherwise fucking over armor and shield AC is very cheap.
>>97263044>INCLUDING enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that...Anon, that's definitional "Inclusive" language, not exclusive. Mental compulsions as a whole are block and ongoing enchantments are just one example.
>>97263089>>97263044>>97262467as per the 3.5e FAQ:What exactly does the second effect of protection from evil do, anyway?[...] The key phrase that defines this particular effect of the spell is as follows: “ . . . the barrier blocks any attempt to . . . exercise mental control over the creature (including enchantment (charm) effects and enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject . . .).”[...]The first part of this phrase describes the basic criteria by which the DM should judge protection from evil’s effect: If the incoming effect attempts to exercise mental control over the creature, protection from evil likely suppresses that effect. The parenthetical portion of the phrase provides two specific examples (pointed, obviously, at rules elements of the Player’s Handbook) to help judge what exactly is meant by that:1. Enchantment (charm) effects. Simple enough--protection from evil automatically suppresses any enchantment (charm) effect, such as charm person or enthrall.2. Enchantment (compulsion) effects that grant the caster ongoing control over the subject. This is where adjudication gets trickier, because you have to decide what “ongoing control” means. The Sage recommends a broad definition, which includes any non-instantaneous effect that prevents the target from exercising full control over its own actions.Comment too long.

>>97263308Personally, I would rule more narrowly than what the Sage advises. As a DM I draw a strong line between the spell granting the caster control of the player, and the spell itself controlling the player. A target rendered confused, as the spell, isn't more susceptible to the requests of the caster, unlike a charm target. Otherwise, Protection From Evil renders the target near-impervious to almost anything mind-affecting, which is too much for a 1st-level spell.

I am writing regarding your offer of military services in the (seemingly inevitable) upcoming fracas, as I would be very interested in hiring your company to supplement my own forces. If you could provide me with an estimate (in $ or £ would be fine) it would be very much appreciated.Yours faithfully, Mboko Psmith.

What brings people to want to move to Xunsburg? Does the town actually have a name?I wasn't sure what we were rolling with, so I was pretty vague on details in my piece - the tentative name I'm rolling with is Jixian City, but I'm happy to edit that if anyone else has a suggestion.I think the city should mostly have commoners and merchants, the kind of people who work to support the Xun Clan in things that are either beneath them or they can't easily get on their own. So maybe farms, or mining spirit stones for them. Best benefit of moving there is probably protection (at least until the Ghost domain started going crazy) and most of the cultivators barring like Moyu and Heinrich/Wen are pretty benevolent.

Thoughts on Scion?
>Chosen>Born>Incarnated>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Created
>>97262890On what criteria
>>97257539I like the idea, but I never felt like the gods, scions, titans, and all of the other magical beings really fit into the world. 1e seemed like that was the goal, and fatebinding was the way to handwave why the gods kept themselves removed from the world and didn't really get involved beyond occasionally banging mortals and maybe doing something lefty approved (except for like, WW2, but even then the Axis aligned pantheons totally didn't know what was going at Dachau or Nanking and were not cool with it). 2e is the same in a different way. All the gods, titans, scions, and magical beings exist in parallel with a world that's just like our own. The Norse pantheon is totally real, but uh, for some reason, Christianity totally spread through Scandinavia and the Scandis just adopted Christianity (but totes kept doing pagan shit on the side). And like, in the Vatican, paganry is going down in the very heart of Christendom. But all the major historical events totally happened the way we know them.I haven't read through the books because I admit to getting booty blasted by some of the shit in the 2e Scion book about how being a fag on its own is enough to get you into Valhalla (where the Einharjar spend time not fighting and training to fight Ragnarok, but how to fight for social justice by reading books and using the internet) and it was totally stunning and brave to be a amab Scion of Thor and wear a dress.

>>97262878You work for or owe a favor to the owner/insurance company . Or just heard rumor around town there’s enough spare parts in them there holds to put together a force that doesn’t have to worry about the local law
>>97262878You are mercs that work for the insurance company that provided coverage for the merchants. To recover costs after paying out the claim the company has tasked your merc group to recover as much of the cargo, equipment, and technology away from the crash site as possible. Your merc group is motivated by a tiered payment system based on the C-bill value of recovered property, as well as a bonus for the denial of any unrecoverable assets and destroyed competition.
>>97262878You're not robbing it. Between conflicts involving the owners, the operating company, the government of register, owners of the cargo, and the insurance companies, plus the jurisdictional issues including the disputed ownership of where it crashed and the conflict between the recognized customs of space versus the laws and contracts of the claimants which also delve into conflicting laws and customs regarding salvage, any claims of piracy are at best an unsubstantiated opinion arising from a conflict of interest and at worst slander/libel.

We've reached the point where GMs are now producing AI slop responses both in and out of character.
>>97260077I'll admit that it started life as a D&D setting because that's what we were playing back in undergrad, but the issue isn't solely my inability to prompt. I periodically test things by going to AI art spaces and asking for help prompting the races. The goal is never to gotcha the prompters, just to check if the models are there yet. One of the recent things I was told to try was feeding the reference pieces into an AI to have it describe the image in prompt form, but feeding that back into an AI still missed a number of key physical features of every race I tried it with.The four races I usually test are described here: https://files.catbox.moe/lu7n9o.pdfTypically, AI generation will result in the loss or distortion of features like:>bhedmi>>skin lichen>>horn and fingernail stone texture>>extension of the mane onto and across the neck>>symbiotic mane vegetation>nasim>>fulgridermis>>nose and ear shapes>>palm pads and finger webbingComment too long.

>>97258821Unmedicated bipolar disorder and a vindictive ex-girlfriend.
>>97248469His YouTube videos aren't very good, but his articles are decent, and his twitch streams are okay. He has a series where he reads and talks about the original 3 d&d books that I found pretty enjoyable. But, yeah, his YouTube videos have this weird, breathless quality where it feels like he is really trying to blow minds or something.
>>97249098Unless a person is solely talking about the layout, editing, and art of a book, there is zero reason to watch a review of a game they've done without playing the game or module. It's like reviewing a videogame by watching a looking at the box and watching let's plays.That's why I like Seth Skworkowski, he only reviews shit he's run or played, so he actually has shit to say about it. There a million review channels that just have a static camera looking down on a pair of hands leading through a book and they have fuck all to say.
>>97263179Watching a review that goes over the basic mechanics, the options, the core gameplay loop, and tries to point out any glaring mechanical issues is worth something. A system can seem cool from the back cover elevator pitch, but unless you take the time to skim read everything, you might not pick up that the vibes and eye-catching presentation are covering a system that is otherwise just 5e in a different hat, or that the game is missing an important set of rules, or that everything is fucking busted, doesn't work as intended, or is just total bullshit to play.Notepad's reviews aren't perfect by any stretch, and some are just outright gimmicks and memes instead of real reviews, but his style of quickly exploring the basics and noting any stand-out problems is not without merit. Especially when his competition for RPG reviews are the millions of pairs of hands awkwardly flipping through a book with nothing to say, as you pointed out.
