What kind of fantasy monsters are you into? I like original abominations, standard humanoids/mythological creatures/giant animals are boring to me.
Liches
>>97228517Tulpas and shit, human negativity made manifest, like in JJK.
>>97228517As the enemies to fight? Humanoids, preferably as a direct parallel to real life minorities.Romantically? Classic mythological creatures. Sphinx, gorgon, and such.
>>97228517What traditional game(?) are you talking about?
Something about classical era monsters makes them my favorite.
Why the FUCK is his power armor broken? The Badab War was 100 years ago. This dude leads a legion-sized band of space marine pirates and is one of the wealthiest and most powerful space marine lords in the setting, on par with chapter masters of the first founding chapters.WHY THE FUCK WOULD SOMEONE NOT HAVE FIXED HIS POWER ARMOR. Does GW even know their own fucking setting anymore?
>>97258391Orks are fine and have so many plastic kits. Bring back looted tanks and then even more options.
>>97260466That's what you get with DEI and commies working for GW
>>97264090Yeah, but we were talking about scale-creep. My point is that the reason Ork's don't get scale creep, even though they literally have an inbuilt lore excuse for doing so is because GW barely thinks about Orks at all. Unlike space marines that get new ranges and kits three times a year and has done since 1995.Which was thirty years ago.
>>97258391I don't think there's very much truth to this. From GW's perspective, it's a great thing if you kitbash vehicles, because then they can sell you two kits instead of one and then even better you'll buy kits that aren't even for "your faction". People often attribute this kind of thing to malice when it's really a case of you can't please everyone.

>>97264193Worthless dogshit bumpfag post
>>97264308I don't think there is, largely because such a book would be a couple thousand pages if we're talking about just combining the compendiums together.
>>97264193Have not read Dark Sun(nor any settings from back in the day) how would one go about doing that.Other than including cannibal hobbits.
>>97264527Even separate books for "Player Options" "Optional Mechanics" "Equipment lists" would be good
>>97264590Dark sun as a setting is perfect for any sort of sword & sorcery/post apocalyptic theme. The setting is littered with ancient ruins of its previous ages, and theres many different monsters & things you can find down in them>A littany of ghosts and undead of long dead peoples, and the spirits of now extinct genocided races like trolls, goblins, orcs, kobolds & gnomes>ancient experiments or any of athas's menagerie of wildlife>psionic monsters aplenty, almost everything on athas is psychicYoure spoilt for choice, but ruins are the main focus.Actual existing Modules that you should look at are anything with a forgotten ancient ruin (The lost city, dwellers of the forbidden city) You should be going for that, a mix of tomb raiding/Red Nails Conan/Lovecrafts nameless city.
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?
>>97263871Sincerely had no intent to ragebait, not sure how you'd even think that.
>>97264621>>97264624upload it to catbox, retard
>>97264111Fundamentally, that the mechanics are the 'standard fare', combat goes roll+mods vs static+mods, then roll damage (with mods), and I haven't seen anything different from the usual for out of combat stuff.I know that I'm picky as shit about rpgs, but for my group this would raise the question of... why are we even playing this, and not just taking the setting and using a system that we all already know well?

>>97263541ok
>>97217677I agree with you, but let me add one thing: Magic is so much better, when you can never fully control it. When it’s something wild and dangerous, that you can bend to a certain degree, but only that. Compare the John Doe magician:>oh, we need a fire>I cast small fireball>oh no a wolf comes>I cast small lightingIf you do it like this, magic becomes a tool.

>>97264376That style of magic only works if PCs aren't built around doing magic. The concept of "magic is unpredictable and can have severe or long lasting consequences" doesn't mesh with "70% of player characters are expected to use at least some magic in every fight". If magic requires a large amount of resource investment to perform then it needs a commensurate payoff to be worth bothering with, and if magic is risky then it needs to be dramatically better than safer options for the same investment to offset the risk.When you marry the two, what you end up with is a PC that will routinely snap the game over their knees, but causes serious problems for the rest of the party in the process. This leads to a spotlight and narrative balance issue, where the magic characters are the ones resolving the narrative, and everyone else is relegated to janitorial duty when the wizard's summoned eldritch nightmare turns on the party for the 4th time this month or whatever.This problem goes away if you remove risky consequences from magic, so magic characters can perform adequately without burdening the party with headaches or dominating the party. It also goes away if magic is made no/low investment so that anyone can have some magic in their pocket without compromising their ability to contribute without it, and then you can reduce the risk:reward ratio so that magic is legitimately a last resort with unpredictable consequences instead of a "win plot" button with downsides.
>>97264651 (me)Oh, there is one other option for balancing magic, which is that *everyone* gets magic, and non-magic characters aren't considered to be valid PC archetypes. At that point, the game can be about everyone putting out fires caused by their collective magical shenanigans, but most RPGs seem to treat "sneaky dude with knife" as an equally valid character archetype as "wielder of phenominal cosmic power", so unless you jettison that particular concept then magic users have to be kept in line with non-magical archetypes.

I'm going to have to buy a whole set of painting supplies just to get this stuff all painted upBut when it is done, it'll be quite the improvement to my terrain collection
>>97264447Do you not already have paint supplies for your models? Aegis is just two shades of grey and most of tomb world can be done with a dark green, light green and two very light browns. Dry brushing is your friend when it comes to painting terrain.
>>97264497My old big brush could really use a replacement after all the terrain I've drybrushed with it, I definitely need to fill up on primer (and might as well get one of a more specific colour), and I'll want some refills of the colours I'm going to use a lot of just to make sure I both have enough for this project and then for models afterwards without having to male a trip to the hobby store anyways.Plus a few new tools I haven't needed before (certain colours that I can justify buying a whole pot of since I'll be using them for a larger project, a larger mid-sized ball drybrush).So not a complete "set" if that's what my previous post indicated, but a pretty large complement by my standards.
>>97264584Ah I get ya, I got tomb world for Christmas from my partner so now I'm trying find a bunch of different examples of it painted to pick the best.
>>97264665I want mine to fit the mat it comes with so I'll be making the core structure that turquoise-green colour (or, well, something close). Then I want the outer armour layer that it has in patches to match my necron models even though that team is only half painted and never used so I'll be painting that a bright white with red glowy bits.

Does anyone have a good suggestion for a base system to build a solo-game where a PC's strength is dependent on harem building? For instance, having the primary power system be copying or enhancing the abilities of harem members.

Recently I was thinking about alternative combat systems.I remember someone talking about instead of HP the payer has a Jenga tower and he needs to remove peaces once hit, the skill is to remove peaces without the tower collapsingSo I started thinking.For example what if the combat somehow involves cups and balls?Instead of a D20+modifier nonsense why not change it up? Why not give a player 10 balls or legos or whatever and to win an encounter the player needs to land 2 balls in 1 cup?There can be variants of this like a super hard encounter demands the player lands all 10 balls or what about reducing the size of the cup with the difficulty of combat?What if we implement a fate system from Talisman for the players? What if legendary bosses have something like that for themselves? And can negate the players victory? What if different monsters use different "balls" like for example some bone golems will be you throwing legos into cups and zombies are aluminum balls while naga can be gummy bears? That actually makes the monster feel different and not a copy pasted set of numbers. Also the different aerodynamics of these "balls" are part of the fun.Comment too long.

>>97263216Takara Tomy massively fucked up how they handled English Wixoss so unless they've learned lessons from that I'm not sure they are automatically better than WOTC.
>>97263983Different anon here:It sounds to me like the early game might start off a little slow, or poor luck in your opening hand could cause the equivalent of being mana screwed in Magic. To combat this, you could have a generous mulligan rule, or as an option, you could let players 'go gravedigging' on their turn, sacrificing all other actions to, for example, turn the top 5 cards of their deckinto their graveyard. It kind of reminds me of the 'Exert' rule from the old Highlander TCG. Alternately, you could always just start the game with X amount of cards in your graveyard. I dunno, just a few options to consider.
