>>97221095I’m a forever GM running on 8 years now, I need to play
>>97221164Okay? Never said you had to run it, rope someone into doing it or get one of those dudes who run games for pay. And yeah sure>paying for a GMYou're asking to play a system that's decades old now. If you can't find a game being advertised on discord, roll20 etc. then that's your best option. Most 40krpgers have long since moved on from 1e.
So far for the next series, I showed off the Scramble for Commorragh, where players can fight to claim districts of the Dark City, and the (still incomplete) Directive Tree, where the players can all put XP together to gain new assets and abilities. But those assets, how to upgrade them? Enter the Chop Shop. Some assets and vehicles can be upgraded with new abilities by spending Salvage acquired from Raids and Corruption Missions. Spend the Salvage, get the upgrade. And if there's something the players have in mind, I'm sure the local Reaver Queen can help out. Anything in the name of quarterly profits, after all.Next, I need to check on something, because if that something is fleshed out enough, I may be able to do something really fucking funny.
>>97220881>>97220993Oh I would never do this for a normal game. It's a one shot, the ten corruption a and insanity is irrelevant when the limit is 100, it's just supposed to tick up slightly and maybe put the players on edge. Same with WP, they're pre made characters and the players didn't invest any amount of XP.
>>97220243The only thing that matters is: did your players have fun?
"Tools of the Trade" EditionArchives & Other Resources: https://rentry.co/cyoagAllsync: https://cyoa.allsync.com/s/owWor64yLTngDk3Previous thread: >>97210766>Thread Question: Do you prefer inherent magic or something more ritualistic, requiring equipment, words, or similar?
>>97221641
>>97221637Stop implying the best Entropist players were the biggest incels.
>>97221637I /was/ going to try making a relatively moral build here. At first it was going to be a normal "merciful and lawful invader", but anyone who forsook the goddesses for me was probably going to the local version of Hell or worse unless myself assumed the burden of carrying their souls as an inferior and potentially abusive guardian, so it would be more moral to be the overlord of a genocidal mindless swarm. Then I realized that myself isn't being forced into this situation according to the intro, and that someone has to be protecting our world from all the malicious godlike travelers in this setting.So, myself rejects this offer, informs God or whatever that this loser is trying to use people as the interdimensional version of toilet paper and rotten tomatoes, and continues living a normal life.
>>97221665Cool, my build was that I summon water until everyone drowns
>>97220266Smug and Emergency are the only practical choices for "why you've caught their eye." Smug eliminates risk. Emergency provides more than a Gold in value, making it superior to the remaining options which situationally provide a Gold or lesser in value.If you want a pure mage build, pick Smug. It is highly unlikely you can greatly stack the magic stat without it.If you want a martial/mage hybrid build or are ok with both a pure mage and a hybrid build, pick Emergency. It is highly likely that rolls spread your stats, so expect a hybrid build when rolling. You can use coins and patron benefits to buy physical stats, so any initially pure mage build can easily be changed to hybrid.
>only elves have access to magic and can be casters
Yeah, elves are basically the best. Can anyone even counter this fact?
>>97193397>Using elves as a buttplug to become the first human sorceressYou have no idea the limits of my deprevityhttps://aryion.com/g4/view/782040
Yes elves shit What are you retarded
>>97220012Retarded page 10 bump.
>>97211563This is unironically Muslim logic. No really, they unironically argue against Jesus like this>You believe Jesus pooped! How could God poop!Though to be fair, that's just an extension of what Quran 5:75 says.>Christians say Jesus is God, but Jesus ate food! How could God eat food!The assumption that eating and shitting are somehow incompatible with immortality and divinity is arbitrary if we assume physical forms, which elves generally have.
ITT overrated cards in MTG
>>97218459If there was a 1 cost instant that traded your creature for an opponent's creature without a time limit, it would be banned in commander Swords and Gilded Drake are both powerful, but Gilded Drake's effect is more debilitating in commander.
>>97220714>>97220028>>97220017>>97219945What you're not understanding about why Gilded Drake should really be a common or uncommon card is that someone can do something with what it targets. I've drawn a diagram for you.
>cost effective And that’s why you are objectively Bad at the game. This isn’t a resource management game. It’s about Dominating your opponent with Power and Skill

>>97221575The day that i have to count to defeat my enemies like a fucking Nerd is the day I defeat myself. I will never put myself in that situation So I always Win
So, now you need to decide. Do you close your eyes to what you've seen and go back to sleep? Or do you come with this psycho burnout and do the impossible against the unbelievable and keep the future at bay for another day? What's it going to be? In or out?Yeah?

What the fuck was the Emperor doing during the DAOT and the age of strife?
>>97204994During the DAoT? Nothing much, staying behind the scenes with the rest of the Perpetuals.Age of Strife? When, start or finish? We know that near the end of that period he was hiding out in a cave in the Himalayas trying to work out how to fix humanity's fucked up genome to get it back towards some sort of understandable baseline that wasn't mutated and degrading all to shit. That's when Malcador found him and convinced him he couldn't just NEET in his basement-cave forever, and talked him into being a warlord again.That's what started the original campaign to take back Terra. Next they used Malcador's remaining strength to strike out and find baby Constantin Valdor, making him the first Custodian. Then the Emperor smashed together the Thunder Warriors, emerged as "the Emperor of Mankind" and got started on the Unification Wars.And the unification wars took something like seven hundred years too. He had a harder and longer time taking Terra than he did the entire Great Crusade (which was only 200-300 years or so)
>>97213070No, Blanks don't see the glamour and they see the man underneath. Corax could also see through it sometimes. That wouldn't stop either group from seeing him bulked up when size-modified by biomancy, since that's a physical alteration and not just illusory glamour, but he definitely had a base body. By all accounts it's the one he was born in, looking approximately like a Proto-Indo-European man.
>>97216230
>>97215204>>97216068...It's literally written there in black and white in Realms of Chaos: The Lost and The Damned, page 174-175>The Emperor is over 50,000 years old.>The Emperor is the collective incarnation of every one of the ancient Stone Age psyker-shamans, who committed suicide to pool their entire power and collective wisdom, honed over millions of years of reincarnations, into a single being that could stand against the rise of Chaos.Retards.

>>97219478No he hasn't newfag retard. Everyone knows who perrynigger is because he unabashedly posts pictures of his Perry miniatures, usually alongside his naked body, and openly admits to being perrynigger, he doesn't shy from it. I haven't seen any of that behaviour in what must be about a year now. Perrynigger isn't just any anon who disagrees with you or whatever
Previous thread: >>97111514GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: How often do you use an official GURPS setting? Which are your favorites?

>>97214597>All that shitThat's just your opinion, man.Some people like having resources for a session. Some people like keeping shit hidden. It's all a matter of personal opinion and preferences.A good GM screen should have a bunch of tables for on the fly ass pulls.
>>97214648Why would you need to buy a printed one to know what it is? The idea comes up often enough in almost any discussion about tabletop RPGs that even non-players will learn what they are quickly enough, and a decent proportion of pdf downloads (legal or not) come with them.
>>97211997>>97214648Yet again, the question was "what is that?" and the reply why "have you ever engaged with the hobby" because screens are not new and not unheard of. We're not talking about who uses them or how not every game has one. Just the fact that they are a common enough thing to know of if you're actually in the hobby. I've run games for a couple decades now and don't use one, but I know what they are and why they exist.
>>97195963I dont think you finished a 1 year campaign with this manchilde running things. Your story seems like fabrication. The "ex-dm" of your tale is offensively ignorant and would run a horrible game is anyone allowed him to do so.
>>97195963>decide to DM>gets backseatedGrow a fucking spine retard, i get it's not an ideal situation but if a friend of mine did thay shit to me i would plainly say to him to fucking relax, enjoy the game and let me make some fucking mistakes so i can learn to properly DM my own way.
Wanted to talk about advice on GMing, settings you prefer, and styles or issues you as a GM have. I generally tend to prefer dark fantasy or sci-fi settings rather than trying something a little different. I also tend to have a style, depends on the system though, where i have a combat heavy session or two and then a more intrigue/exploration focused session. I have been working on how to better balance games I run, but trying to tie that to timing a game session gets tricky at times. Another issue I noticed is that puzzle solving or investigative games can be a lot harder for a player to get into the mindset for than the dm. It is easy to think everything you planned makes sense when you thought it out in your head but the players might not have the same line of thought.
>>97218365I guess what I mean by having more combat or intrigue focused sections is sometimes my notes tend to go for one side over another. I used to plan more stuff out, but as you said, it is a lot more fun seeing players solve issues by thinking outside the box rather than having a set solution.I do like your advice on asking players what they want to do before the next game. That really made all the difference when I started doing it a while back.
>>97218290To echo some of what >>97218365 said, you don't need to dedicate sessions to intrigue/exploration.If the goblins in a dungeon don't attack the PCs on sight, and instead scheme with the players to try to get them to kill their boss, that's intrigue. If the players are discovering things in the new rooms of a dungeon, that's exploration. Intrigue is just 'talking to NPCs that have their own motives', and exploration is just 'discovery'. It's on the players to engage with that.As far as investigation games go, that tends to work better in dedicated systems, but you basically want to flood the players with clues. Remember that the players aren't actually Sherlock Holmes, and so if you're expecting the players to make the deductions, you need to give them an appropriately difficult mystery. You also want to avoid including a purposeful red herring. The players are already likely to pick out the wrong person as the culprit, so you don't want to muddy things further by trying to trick them on purpose.
I strongly recommend reading the Kobold Guides. They're really top-notch. Check the Rchive for them.
>>97218290I've learned not to lock main plotline progression behind puzzles; like a door or something.But "best possible ending" will be, as well as all the best loot.Competent evil wizards don't just leave their best shit lying around in storage cupboards with nothing but a deadbolt and a green slime to protect it.Best thing is to give your players inscrutable hints; a map with a cypher, a key to an unknown lock, or rumours of a treasure in a jungle ziggurat.Take a few of these elements and blend them together.With skill, you can make your players "feel" like they solved a puzzle even when they didn't, just by giving them the components piecemeal; real puzzles should be presented alongside physical props; something tactile like a printout or a real sliding puzzle box.
>>97218365>picThat's scratching some old memories. Isn't that the Paladin that some fag in 2009 or something posted with a big sob story about how it belonged to his dad that recently passed away, and then a bunch of anons in the thread figured out that the story was bullshit cause the character sheet didn't make a lick of sense with AD&D rules?

By the way, how many units from the charts actually have profiles?
>>97220071All of the units for the first three charts should. Some are jokes like the Star Ancestor. Quite a few never made it into a book so if you want any reposted please let me know.
>>97221029I was checking if there were some units that would fit a neo mughal book, but other than the rajput sepoy, I think there are none.
>>97221542For what it's worth, I don't personally believe that every mentioned faction needs to be a full book faction. Some, like Olms, Neo-Mughals, and Ethiopia, can just be microfactions with only a handful of units.

This one is banned kek. Could of sworn something similar to this existed at the start of DM.■ Reveal the top 3 cards of your deck face up. Put all Water cards from among them into your hand, and put the other cards into your graveyard.
>>97219214I think the biggest issue with the game retaining players is how harsh the transition from thinking you've almost won games into realizing that getting your opponent to 1 hp while he has 5 cards wasn't close at all.
>>97221306Unfortunately so. That only bothers me because some have really good art that I wish were in paper. Mechanics are whatever because DMP is technically a different game with different rules.That said, they have brought over some DMP exclusive cards to paper with the DMPCD products (last one in 2023)https://duelmasters.fandom.com/wiki/DMPCD-03_DueMaPlay%27s_Collaboration_Deck:_The_Fierce_Dragon_Hero_and_the_Original_Wicked_Eye
>>97219387contact distributors. it seems like in europe, italy is the hub for getting the trading cards straight from distro for the low lol . Card sales in america are so interwoven with baseball cards, a uniquely american thing, that I wonder how pokemon cards and such are sold in other europe.
>>97221501>That said, they have brought over some DMP exclusive cards to paperI saw that, it's mixed feelings mostly just depending on the card. I don't mind for the vast majority but it usually boils down to like one or two I hyper fixate on. Gives a good opportunity to try shit out without harming the mainline product.
