>>97283065Works for me. The discipline of 4 means he'll probably have to bring some alcohol to stay in the fight, but for a cowboy that's perfectly thematic.

This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.This is different than the regular osrg as due to rampant trolling from a handful of bad actors, discussion is impossible.>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Starter Dungeonshttps://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/86342023/#q86358321PREVIOUS THREAD>>97226728
>>97275418>This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.>Welcome to TODD! This thread is for OPEN discussion of TSR-era Dungeons & Dragons (OD&D, Basic D&D, and AD&D including 2e) and related games, such as retroclones and OSR-adjacent games (OSE, BFRPG, S&W, LotFP, DCC, C&C, etc.).Lmao this thread literally is just a rerun of /todd/, it's even obvious that it's the same guy seething e.g. >>94463986. Don't you remember how embarrassingly it died the last time? Let it go, kanigga. You lost. Let it go.>>97284068>It's just AD&D but written in a clear and easy to understand fashion.>>93846959
>>97287349>ShallowDork>Sand NoggersGod help you.
>>97287387Yeah, it's obvious to anybody with half a brain that it's the same "person" (fishfag) behind both /todd/ and this osrg knockoff, since both were attempts to hijack /osrg/, and both are failing in exactly the same way, with zero discussion because nobody actually plays "AD&D" 2e, not even 2etard itself.
>>97287442You'll note that in one of the old posts linked he also writes "OSRG" instead of /osrg/.
>>97287708That didn't escape me.
Anyone play it yet? I like the "rustic fantasy" setting. The core rules seem interesting, it has more mechanics and gameplay than most other narrative games. I enjoy that it doesn't have moves or whatever to confine you, you can actually play your character and do whatever you want. It's got enough knobs and options in terms of resolution I feel like it's actually a real game despite having that more story focus vs simulation focus. And I like that the DM has all the traditional power of the DM and there's not like "Fate Points" or something else that gives players control to change stuff.Thinking I might try a short game for my table, just a few lower powered sessions. It also has good tools for a solo stuff which is interesting.
Been running Avatar in this system and it's been a much better time than the official Avatar RPG.
>>97276085No, there are browns on the cover.
>>97283948>the shill accusations and the paranoia that comes with it are still worse for board quality.Learn to discuss things like someone who isn't trying to advertise a product, then. Shill accusations are harmless and easily countered or ignored. Acting like a huge faggot because people are rightfully wary of shills only casts more doubt.
>>97276085>"rustic fantasy"That sounds like another faggot way of saying COMFY
>>97287995Nah, it means it's fantasy Appalachia. Moonshine, sisterfucking, and endemic cannibalism mixed with all kinds of fucked-up cryptids.
Fs in chat for Spiral and Reed. Another pair of top waifus lost to the bugs.
>>97280772Can't have more than one of each class of elf in the main cast.
>>97277464>>97277464You can get money if you can get eyes and sell out. You can keep your dignity if you're really fucking good and willing to live like a monk like Ashley Cope. Only recently did she get a publishing deal she felt she could trust.
>>97267333I wonder if the last two panels are being pushed to 231, or if he decided they weren't necessary since there's colour now.
>>97279814How can you even come back from the WIP being that much ahead of the completed comic, especially when you still need to pump out WIPs to get the Patreon gibs?
>>97288022You can't really, unless you start uploading the finished pages as separate posts to get paid for them as well. Your only hope is to finish the damn thing.For an example of how long these things take to get finished, p230's WIP was posted on July 1, 2022.

>>97287343I guess it's technically possible to shift my character towards filling in the arranged marriage. Something like a traditional beauty from wealthy family in order to modernize the shrine / use the family's assets. They'd have to be less chuuni and be more of a popular character probably, but at that point it would be a diet Kurobane character.I should probably ask about what the other JITE players think in order to find a build that fits the setting, or something others can utilize for their story.
>>97287939I'm a JITE player, but honestly I don't get why you need to tie your character to whatever happens to Liren. Did I miss something?
>>97287939That's a bit much, I don't think you need to change the character to fit the marriage to that point, I was dropping it anyway since it makes no sense. I think the chuuni idea fits well with a childhood friend, and makes more sense as a "connection" too. A strangely competent chuuni is a fun idea.>>97287965It's part of a discussion started a long time ago by now. The new buils being connected a bit so they help each other. I brought it up in secret hours because I am planning to write properly, and now we're here.
>>97287965I'm trying to make a JITE build mostly for Liren to have a character to interact with who's just as new as him since I did say I'd try to pick it up again with him. That's kind of it.
>>97288024I'd say, maybe go for someone that's a complete opposite, but with similar goals to him so that they work together, but there's a dynamic between the two? I know this sounds like very unspecific advice, but that's a good start, I'd say
Besides Shadowdark, are there any other TTRPGs that have playable goblins?
goblins are pathfinder's signature racehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMWXE1DHDxY
Goblin clerics, yay or nay?

The Steyr ACR is the only rifle that doesn't get completely raped by Nano Banana or just reproduced looking like a shitty photoshop when using it as a reference image
>>97287989Interesting.
there difference between nano banana and nano banana pro still seems pretty drastic
>>97288020Dawn of War 4 is looking good!
>>97288020The Pro is somewhat better but fuck paying for this shit, I just need comprehensible reference images. Sometimes the Pro does think in troll logic though from what little I have tried, it will just make pic rel and not even apologize
Redneck EditionDiscuss and post elves. Elf lore, gameplay, and art are all appreciated.QOTT: Which artists do you think drew the best elves?
>>97287563Deed was from the tabletop before she was from the anime.
>>97287763I'd vote Nissa from MTG. She's easily the most significant named elf in that game.
>>97287773oops, meant to quote >>97287563Or anime Nissa if you really want.
>>97287763i suppose that's fairone could argue that she's mostly known from the anime, but then one could just as easily argue that drizzt is mostly known from the books
>>97285944>edgy for edginess sake blades, spikes and capes etc everywhere.>intimidationPick one>and more sensible to look at.Eldar armor looks like general sci-fi scin-tight costumes (and not even the cool intimidating way like in some other sci-fi settings), while elven armor in Fantasy looks functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Kill them all. Tabletop and nerd culture becoming the hip thing to do is the worst thing that has happened to this once niche culture.I work 40 hours a week, play vidya, workout, have to take out parents/grandparents out to eat on holidays and birthdays, and I can meet schedule and play tabletop just fine because this is my hobby and has been my hobby for 20 years.

>>97283701Damn, hope you get to play one of them someday.
>>97275912I've noticed this.I agree with this.It pisses me off, but I don't know how to confront my friends about it without alienating them.I don't know why they insist on playing with me every week, but don't seem to care about the hobby like I do. I enjoy learning the rules, figuring out the world, hell, I even like just quietly sitting there reading the books and imagining games that could be. I like roleplaying too.My group doesn't give a shit. Only one other guy can even be counted on to read the rules, and he's our forever DM. He's taking a break so another guy can run right now, and SURPRISE, he didn't decide to read the rules and figured he's just learn it as he went. Luckily it's OSRS shit so the rules are usually the same, but it's definitely a huge annoyance when he references 5e D&D concepts that aren't supposed to exist.
>>97275912>run a game for my friends>I've built an Excel character sheet that prompts them for any and all inputs and performs all calculations>fifteen minutes to build a character, tops, and it can then be printed into a clean and easily-referenced copy for use at the table>this also means that, if they haven't done it by session time, I can sit them down and take care of it while everyone else is getting the dice out and picking seatsWith a little bit of effort, your games can be all but frictionless.

Why do "modern" and modern people go insane when they see some eldritch blorblo, but Conan could just kill it without going "aaaaaahhh save me niggerman!!!!!"
>>97283372>Conan>perfect incurioushave you ever read Howard's work ?
>>97287123Nobody on this board actually reads the Conan stories. Secondaries are a plague
>>97281870You go insane not because of alien geometries. You go insane because as a modern man, you have been taught that man is the master of cosmos, then faced with the reality that you are not even a flea next to cosmic monsters.
>>97287164>because as a modern man, you have been taught that man is the master of cosmos,nobody believes this
>>97285715>but he specifically states at one point that he avoids overthinking about existential mattersFunnily enough, his predecessor, Kull was the opposite

>>97286385Enforcers seems to be an aesthetic choice from what I've experienced so far. Especially if they're people coming from 40K. Its hard to break out of bolt guns and uniforms I guess.
>>97286385It's the latter. They don't care about fluff, they just are going off of aesthetics. Players don't want to read a source book. They want to watch yt videos of sweet lore and then beat up the other players with their cops.

Welcome to /wbg/, the thread for the discussion of in-progress settings for traditional games.Here is where you go to present and develop the details of your worlds such as lore, factions, magic and ecosystems. You can also post maps for your settings, as well as any relevant art. Please remember that dialogue is what keeps the thread alive, so don't be afraid of giving someone feedback or post whatever relevant input you might have, cunt!Last thread: >>96999149Worldbuilding links: Post someFantasy map generator: https://watabou.itch.io/medieval-fantasy-city-generator
>>97281054>Realistically what would life in a world of superheroes where your ability is defined by your bloodline be like?Well, for a start, bloodline powers means secret identities do fuck all unless your entire family tree keeps that shit secret, so masks are out.Also means supervillains would be pretty rare for the same reason. You aren't gonna have people start trying to crime when their powers are basically a fingerprint unless they're immediately willing to live on the run. There's a difference between running after you get caught and running in the first place and people willing to do A aren't necessarily going to be willing to do B.
>>97281771So they are basically Wolverines and can start hunting humans.
>>97283402Huh?
>>97285165>Their blood can cure illnesses>Their bones are beautiful and jewel-like (Adamantium)>Their hair is nearly unbreakable and can be woven into unbreakable fabric
>>97285959I never thought of it like that, but they're not nearly as unkillable.They can die easily like anyone else, and are hunted like animals
