I've spent the last year, studying, and designing a custom Arthurian set, originally intended to be based on Le Morte d'Arthur (like how P3k was based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms). However, as I continued to study, and look into different (and some obscure sources) this turned into a much more wider net. This set, which is no where near finished includes>Welsh Triads and The Magnibong>Pre-Vulgate Arthur traditions>Vulgate/Post Vulgate/Lancelot cycles>some English/Welsh fairy tales>and even a bit of the Victorian Arthurian revival (especially for art). I avoided the Italian and German romances entirely, and tried not to include weird outliners except when needed. Outside of art, nothing is sourced from the 20th century or onward. Also all art is public domain. I'm mainly posting here for feedback. Some will be art recommendations, flavor text (especially sourced) will be always welcomed.Comment too long.

In general:I'd ask ChatGPT for an icon for the set, all of this effort deserves more than a square. Also for a small set that is a throwback to better times, drop the mythic rarity, orange does not look good (I have stopped using colored symbols, rarity can be seen in collector's info).The cards: I don't like most of artifacts at all, only the grail being a throwback to Lich's tomb seems like an interesting choice. I think you are trying to put too many characteristics from the source and everything is bloated. Like destroying the round table already punishes the knights, they don't have to commit hara-kiri!The knights are better, although I hate Arthur and Lancelot for different reasons: Arthur for being just bad and 5c commander-bait, and Lancelot for being a doom machine. I mean, Lancelot and Arthur were friends for long years, it is more nuanced than you make it to be.
>>97283344Good.>>97283129No but I did include the second Isolde.
>>97283423I'm eventually going to remove the color symbol all together. Right now, this is a beta phase, and the symbols help me track power level, which admittedly is kinda dumb. Everything will be black by the time I'm done. I never liked Mythic rarity.Arthur isn't EDH bait, he's ''assemble the round table" bait for cool thematic 60 card decks. I'm aware of that, but that doesn't change that fact that he's social acid, even before the affair. Finishing off the "Tristan and Isolde" suite, is none other than King Mark himself.
>>97283991ugh, good morning
>>97283126You think so? I did debate on including a cost onto it.

Trench Raiding With The Lads Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/Comment too long.

Late game campaigns need some improvement. Past the halfway point unless you’ve monumentally fucked up you have very little areas for list building because you’re capped up on everything but basic troops

>>97283870I think that anon meant it is considered "edgy" for americans but for us europeans it's mostly seen as religious satire
>>97283603You don't need to lie to me bro I already know it's borderline nothing "yes but if you look it from this angle and you squint it kinda looks..."It's "non female degrading-approved", that's the point the anon was makingIt's edgy, but it's a kind of non-offensive edgystop
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.
>>97276085Fantasy narrative slop - just what I've been waiting for all my life.
>>97283493>Fantasybased>Narrativesemi-basedRPGs are for fantasy.
>>97283121No, he's right. Something that becomes really obvious when you look at all the vast, vast, vast majority of shill accusations that have been an intrinsic part of 4chan since 2008 or so is that they are built on an unwarranted sense of self importance. People want to feel like they are special and that they are an important part of whatever it is the board is about, be it video games, tv series, traditional games or even vtubers. As a result, of course the hard working makers of the stuff we consume would come in here and beg us to play their product. By calling someone a shill, you get to feel like you are smartly avoiding manipulation AND rejecting someone's advances.This is the 11 hottest selling RPG on Drivethru right now and has insanely good reviews. The idea that someone wants to organically discuss it is a million times more likely than a developer or someone paid by the developer coming in here to shill it. Not to mention that even in the unlikely case that it were a shill, the shill accusations and the paranoia that comes with it are still worse for board quality.I'm not OP btw, I'm >>97276312 and >>97279741Also, now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever seen earnest shill accusations on /pw/. For all the faults of that board, they realize they are just fanboys of different stuff shitposting at each other.
>>97283948Gonna be honest, typing stuff like >"This is the 11 hottest selling RPG on Drivethru right now and has insanely good reviews."sounds like something a shill would say. Not that it really matters, since this is just a Chinese basket weaving forum and having seen the material via piracy means, I already satisfied my curiosity and don't feel a need to condemn the system further.
>>97283959The point flew over your head.Anyways, I would actually appreciate if you shat on the system, since I haven't played with it yet but plan on doing so. That would certainly add more than just going on about muh shills.

>>97281684you have to engage in combat which means a Charge, but these units will likely be coming on from the enemy backline so you're never really going to make a huge amount; Vanguard (3) becomes Doomed Heroics (6), but you still wouldn't get 3VP from Doomed Heroics more than once with that unit, because there wouldn't be any Units coming on close enough; in practice you would be making it easier to score 3VP once or perhaps twice with a former Vanguard (3) unit (which ordinarily would score nothing for removing Expendable (3) as casualties), not farming VP all game - plus with the very big Levy Troops even a WS5 T5 2+ save unit is going be 1/206 for an unsaved melee Wound or 1/108 from shooting from Levy, which is not that remote of a chance (and the full unit can put out 100 shots in a single phase); it's a humiliation waiting to occasionally happen>>97281689I've seen enough Terminator Captains go down to massed Gretchin blunderbusses over the years to know this is a dumb idea (you get nothing if you don't die in combat, including if you get shot down by Overwatch or Volley Fire, and Militia are more than capable of shooting down lone warriors)

>>97283905the implications here are obviously that simic is this formats easy mode
>>97283915ah, duh. too early in the day for me to grapple with shitposting.
>>97283556I firmly believe for all eternity EVERY color should have access to shit like enchantment removal, counterspells etc. They should just be WAY WAY WAY shittier. Overcosted, bad effects that require you to take a hit etc. The point is they exist. But they'll never even be 1/10th as good as blues.Literally already did this for every color when it comes to counters.And most of this shit gets given to colorless and they just make it cost 7 mana and have some other shitty requirement. So miss me with "BLACK CAN'T HAVE GARBAGE ARTIFACT REMOVAL" just give some shit that's 6 mana and you lose half your life or some other garbage effect.
>>97283947>Overcosted, bad effects that require you to take a hit etcblack has been getting more and more targeted enchantment removal lately, yet other colors have yet to get coverage at all.I'd love for red to get more than chaos warp effects to deal with enchantments.

I pretend to have read the rulebook, but I only skimmed it.
>>97283507I give my friends detailed, informative information about both the lore and gameplay mechanics of various TTRPG settings I'm interested in. I try to be as objective as possible, cite particularly specific claims, and try to explain to them when and where developers give contradictory information so they should make their own judgement at a certain point (believe iut or not, BL isn't even the worst out there).I've never played a single one of those TTRPG settings. Not once in my life. They're all too niche and the country I live in has ZERO comprehension of the hobby. The vast, vast majority of my TTRPG player history is a single campaign of the Middle Earth RPG in which I was the only player willing to actually fight and kill things. It was an absolute shitshow the DM bent over backwards to ensure I hard carried because nobody else could, and I didn't even know what the fuck I was doing other than shooting fire arrows and dual wielding short swords. I am a fraud.
>>97283714>sorry for trying to make a 60th threadftfy
Why were so many of the "OG" game designers insufferable faggots? It seems like the vast majority of game designers from the 70s and 80s were self-obsessed dickheads who openly hated and looked down on their customer base. There were obviously exceptions, and some like Gygax would go on to regret and apologize for it, but still, what made so many "professionals" back then such fags?Pic related: WFRP author James Wallis's response to a letter criticizing how railroaded The Enemy Within campaign was.
>>97283112I think it's because the internet has exagerated the existance of "That Guy" to the point where it doesn't even slightly reflect a lot of peoples experience. My old meet up was at a pub. 20-30 members on the books. Most were in relationships and had families. There were maybe 4 or 5 clearly autistic members and only 1 of them was really insufferable to be around. It always makes me a bit sad when I see the old stereotypes getting flung around. I've only ever seen shopping carts full of pokemon boxes online. I've only ever heard about table flips online. I've only ever heard stories of hyper-sexual trans furbolg bard players online and usually from groups that generally sneer at our pastimes.
>>97283180You are absolutely correct. Terminally online people have a warped idea of reality and it's more often that not rather blackpilled.
>>97283112they're fake because they're clearly fake, retard
>>97283112>He fell for the green textPoint and laugh
>>97283180It's also a case of people only talking about the 1% of their worst experiences and "could never happen until it happens to you". The idea that the ultra-communist batshit insane transexual furry who unironically writes a manifesto on how mathematics itself is imperialist and ableist sounds too fake to be true, but I know one that exists out there. I even pissed myself reading their gibberish manifesto. But they were only one single lone creep out of dozens of people I've met online who were nowhere near that insane and who I've amicably played games with, and people understandably pay more attention to the really absurd bordering on fake stories than the ones where everything went okay and nothing bad happened.
