Here's a question for all the loremasters out there: Did the Warhammer World have its own equivalent of not-Romans or the not-Roman empire? I have some ideas for my dudes that would benefit from this question although I'm still going with the idea even if I get a negative answer.
>>97281713Tilea. Also, Ulthuan is Warhammer Atlantis, with a dashing of More's Utopia and lots of Melnibonea, so elves have a ton of Greco-Roman influences, with Dark Elves hewing closer to Sparta/Rome and High Elves being closer to Athens.
>>97281140Law magic empowered by Arianka. Ice = purity and stasis. Realm of the Ice Queen basically states that The Ancient Widow is something to do with Arianka trapped beneath Praag.
>>97281713As the other anon said, tilea, specifically the city of Remas was the former Capital of the Reman Empire, an ancient empire of men possibly founded by the goddess myrmidia when she lived as a mortal. The cults of myrmidia disagree on many details including where myrmidia may have been born or if her ancient empire started in either estalia or tilea.
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. And as we enter this happiest and newest of years, remember: 2e was never an old-school game, bait is for reporting, and fish is for smoking! Happy new year, grogs! 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?

>>97280830Oh lmao, the Dragonbane post got deleted already, that's what I get for leaving the thread to auto-update
>>97280032Could be something worth using there. I'll take a look.>>97280209I think I have Halls of the Blood King floating around somewhere. Worth considering. Thanks.>>97280830Yeah my initial idea was to generate a small lair and give some landmark designators to point them in the right direction when they search for it. (5 miles East of Obelisk, just beyond the lake. Place Obelisk and lake hexes accordingly on hexmap etc.) but I also thought this may be a good way to break up the process of delving such a huge dungeon as Stonehell.I was considering using The Hyqueous Vaults as it's been recommended by Prince and others. I could also have one of the macguffin rods from the module be bundled up in the map as my player hasn't actually examine it yet (fortunately for me). It's maybe a bit longer than I was looking for, at about 60 rooms, but it's only one floor and has "vault" in the title, so the allure of treasure would be strong.>Reposting the magic item I came up with the other day as I think the sloppa image I generated for it turned out decent.
>>97280181There is a supplement called Dungeon Grappling, you could maybe look into that.Although though it purports to be compatible with S&W, it seems to me that it's mainly written with modern editions in mind, but could be what you're looking for.
>>97280181TL;DR: No. The DMG has unarmed combat rules that are way more extensive than they ought to be, but they're not as detailed as what you seem to want.
>>97280830>Lone Colossus of the Akolouthos Sink by Gus LNow that's a name I've not heard in a long time. His Red Demon in the Vile Fens is in that level range although on the lower end.
What kind of fantasy monsters are you into? I like original abominations, standard humanoids/mythological creatures/giant animals are boring to me.
>>97228517I like having a decent mix of >humanoid enough monsters with similar but different goals for fighting and negotiating with >medium to large somewhat magical and violent predatory monsters to fill in for lions, tigers and bears>occasional fucked up monsters of unearthly bearing, alien desires and immense power Been trying to have an actual dragon every now and then too, everyone's been trying to be so different from dragonlance for so long we've forgotten dragons can be cool. The variety I have found, is the most important over time.
>>97268497>NOO YOU MUST LIKE THING I LIKE OR I WILL CALL YOU NOGAMESplayed more games longer than you anime traash goblin
>>97275306Anything that isn't a clone of American Werewolf in London where it's a normie with a Jekyll and Hyde situation except Hyde uses BlueSky
Giant animals can be cool if they are classic
Gotta say something like the thing Shapeshifting assimilating creature that learns more every victim

>>97280716>my lgs has its custom banlist and also lets you use a card from the official banlist ie you can run pot of greed or apollousa in your deck.Shock Master Onomat Ryzeal
>>97278993UN-ignoring the elephant in the room; the field spell deals lethal amounts of burn damage. I've had some oxygen thieves say that it's just like a regular OTK build, but you can block battle damage pretty trivially as long as your opponent isn't on a gimmick build like Mikanko, Yubel, or heaven forbid Ritual Relinquished. You can't block effect damage, or at least not reliably with fucking anything in the current meta short of One Day of Peace in Runick (which is to say, not reliably with fucking anything in the current meta). It also doesn't take a hell of a lot to pivot it into being an FTK build instead.A single card should not be able to repeatedly burn your opponent for over half their starting LP at the start of every single turn. If it only happened during your own standby phase? Sure, the archetype's theme is Judgement and you're punishing your opponent for their opulent playstyles when it only happens during your own standby phase.. But it does it every. single. turn. It's just not right.
>>97244651>>97245405>>97245434Definitely these. Having grown up with KidsWB, you kinda felt they were often marketing toward a more "urban" market, with the presentation and the commercials as well. As for YGO itself, you had millennium items that were bling, dramatic dudes with crazy hair, hot female side characters, and general shounen shit. It should not be surprising at all that blacks got really into YGO, more so than Pokémon. Sonic X too. It's like how Latino kids were the ones wearing DBZ T-shirts to school.
>>97282196Anyway, I haven't played YGO in 20 years. If I want to collect graded copies of some old favorites, should I stick with English or should I try for the original Japanese versions of the cards? Not thinking of it as an investment, but just collecting and aesthetics. Think the God cards, Five-Headed Dragon, those kinds of things. I have a handful of Pokémon cards for the same reason, and they're all Japanese versions, so I'm wondering if it'd be best to stick with that.
>>97282203If you're okay with reprints, Konami's reprint policy is really freaking good these days and they also kinda blew their load for the 25th anniversary and printed some nostalgia sets. Otherwise it just depends on your preference, though the Japanese ones will almost certainly be cheaper.

>>97281816Thanks for the list. Damn, this is pretty good! Honestly, Racist Blake and Uncle Ruckus is just comedy that writes itself.Also like the Medusa one quite a bit! Shame Arachne yet again is overlooked. Tired Femme Fatale Milf is a mood. Oh well, nothing the Import Option can't fix. Still thanks for your work, and great taste! Also Flayne is such a cutie, bless her.
>>97281071>That option is supposed to replace itself every Jump with a new oneAs in, you can't even keep the brainwashed students in your basement or something? That should probably be called out then, since the Simps section header says all options are Followers but some may work more specifically.Poor Misaki. A shame, but ah well.>That said, being a Wasp is the one that guarantees a reason why she can't just control you.Not even LOVE? Alas!Nah, that tracks. Though if you take female human here without a way of protecting yourself from stings I'm pretty sure you are *literally* asking for it.As for building to counter her, it's less intentionally doing that and more that as mentioned, her whole Smother Mother-Dom thing kind of falls apart just with the basic "be Queen, have Soldiers, they instinctively hate her minions" issue. A bit of a problem when that's her whole deal.Speaking for myself, I've done several Wasp builds for different chains and they all took Misaki, while any build that takes(/is taken by) Red would be Human (with a penis and/or mind control immunity, because Himenospia). But oh well, it's just an extra 100cp for out-of-origin anyway.>Kind of stretching it but sure.Sweet.
>>97279867I'd prefer a character replacement toggle.
>>97282197That would also be nice. I just wanna have a Noelle expy as my loving vessel

>>97282227Do you want a quick short thing to kick off a campaign or a whole 3rd party campaign to run for a long time

Realistically what would life in a world of superheroes where your ability is defined by your bloodline be like? Would eugenics be common place in such a world? Would government affect them if the abilities could range from pointless to Homelander level at best?
Elves are hunted because >Their meat tastes better than anything>Their blood can cure illnesses>Their bones are beautiful and jewel-like>Their hair is nearly unbreakable and can be woven into unbreakable fabric>Their organs have specific propertiesAs a result, they've gone from living like well, elves to basically becoming an entire race consisting of Guts from Berserk.
>>97276203>>97278886That's Five Star Stories.
>>97281054Depending on the timeline of the powers appearance:In Ancient times: It would probably be a feudalistic society with the superheroes being treated as gods or noble with noble arranged marriages being the closest thing eugenics. In modern times: Superheroes might be encouraged to use their power for good. If they are sufficiently strong the government could legally institutionalized to closely monitor them. Probably away from others like them to prevent an uprising.
Have you healed from female Custodes yet?
>>97279696Ironic
>>97280210Why? She already has one that's meatier, girthier, and smellier than yours
>>97280292The Magistry of Canopus inherited one of the most advanced medical facilities of the old Star League and they use it for, among other things, copious amounts of cybernetic enhancements, often cosmetic. Their main export are also traveling space pleasure circuses so you can imagine the sorts of shenanigans they get up to.
As representatives of the Latin American fandom, it didn't bother us too much. That is to say, we were offended that the only explanation they gave us was "they were always there," but it didn't escalate as much as it seemed to for the English-speaking fandom, from our perspective.
>>97278830That's the exact attitude that makes them built for instant loss

You have to choose one of the current top ten to win a Classical game against, and if you lose, or draw, you die. Obviously, you’re going to die. But for the best of the slimmest of chances, who do you choose?
>>97282255Keymer easily. He’s pretty blind tactically and is basically an overtrained mediocrity whose parents had the means of hiring Peter Leko to coach him from a young age. His natural talent is minimal. I would complicate the game as much as possible and hope he fails outside of his classically trained comfort zone and misses a tactic.

>>97280484Secret countdowns never worked for me. You could go the BitD route and have a pizza slice clock on the table, more gamey and players can act accordingly to clear canonical information.I usually lie a bit because anything you do to inform them of stuff they shouldn't use to decide is gonna break immersion. At that point just make it as dramatic as possible.
>>97280484try narrating knock-on environmental effects like stuff detaching loudly in the distance or have a fire break out and an alarm go off. if they spend time investigating, give them a fair estimate of time left.
>>97280802I've run BitD, and I agree with the pros/cons of the clock. I think for Mothership, it makes it too meta-gamey and doesn't suit the horror setting where you should never have complete information. But thinking about it in the way you've set out has helped. If the players can't control it/take decisions based on it, move it earlier so it acts as a shock rather than as a complication. They're unlikely to go to the reactor first as the power is still on. Thanks.>>97281127I think I'll write in that there's a transponder on Renato’s suit so the bridge can pick it up.
>>97281270This more about movies, but Hitchcock once said that you can either have surprise or suspense.>Surprise: Two men are talking in a bar. Their table blows up.>Suspense: Someone sets up a bomb. Two men sit down and start talking. You see the clock ticking and getting closer to blowing up. Then it blows up.It's kinda similar. If they have meta information you can use it to create suspense, but you'll lose impact. If you focus on impact you can't really build it up without killing it.
>>97281270>>97280802Wait does Blades make the MC clocks from pbta player facing? That's fucking dumb.
