Did you guys know that the magi-nation TCG got a kickstarter a while back for a new set?
I sure didn't, I'd have supported it.
I ordered a few of the new structure decks out of curiosity. I remember playing the gameboy color game.

The gold there is rather flat and dull, some highlights should help a lot.

Worry not my fellow Pestilens nugget, they are still awful. S3 with Hand Weapons aren't killing anything even if they double the bonus from Frenzy. For now I just mix my monks with clan rats for a cooler aesthetic and to bump up my clan rat count which is more valuable than taking plague monks.

Perhaps the way to go would be to present a discounted locomotive that would be subject to the player rolling on a table to determine car composition before the game, and then the option to create a pre-built set of cars at a higher silver price? Setting a price for the locomotive itself, and setting a different price for each car might be the way to go. Keying specific cars to designated leaders can prevent stacking 5 armoured carriages, if the rule is written right.
>>97315417
Derailment table would be good. I can't think of anything that would reasonably be able to block a train. Also, offering the player with the train an opportunity to make some kind of reaction check to pull the brake if the line is destroyed and the engineer can get reasonable notice.

>>97315476
A big saur, an armored elephant or the german mecha could definitely be enough to at least roll for derailment.

>>97315487
Absolutely. I misunderstood and thought what was meant was stopping the train dead in it's tracks without a derailment. Your average 4-4-0 American locomotive bearing freight or passengers weighs about 90 short tons, traveling at around 45 km/hour has an impact force measured in multiple megajoules. You'd get the derailment, at the cost of being one of those LiveLeak films from the Indian subcontinent.

Genuinely curious: you don't like him being "woke" or you don't like the Polanski thing?

(Note: I personally still wonder if I should watch Polanski movies. Well, paying for them. Don't get me wrong, people not reading a dead author because he was bad are crazy, but even if it's symbolic I don't like the feeling of paying a child molester that managed to escape. Yes, I do realize as well that in this case it's not clear, but still)

>. I mainly take issues with his politics, choice of themes, and the "wholesome" persona around him.
Alright, that I can understand. Yeah it's kinda fucked but honestly if that's the most one can find to condemn him it's not awful, I suppose. I mean shit even Kojima is starting to lean into AI apologism around the same time Larian dudes did it as well. Literally everyone who makes something nice these days has some shitty asshole baggage attached to them which is just a consequence of the incestuous hole that is Hollywood and we can't do much about that short of cutting them all of our lives for better or worse.

>>97318303
I haven't seen Crimson Peak yet but that's sort of what I expected. I didn't like Frankenstein or Shape of Water but even for the movies I don't like I have to admit the man has a flair for visual storytelling. Even in his old films like Cronos or Devils Backbone dude had a way to make some striking stuff. He's been trying so hard and for so long to make a version of Mountains of Madness and genuinely I can't think of another film maker I would trust with the subject matter. I think his script is floating around online somewhere, I never bothered to read it but I know he'd be able to actually make an antarctic Elder Thing city actually look fucking good and probably even have some practical sets instead of throwing everyone onto a green screen. Or at least, I would hope.

The problem with MOM is mostly on the text. It's a dry no human drama interplay of shock, cosmicism (even if I hate this word), literally scifi worldbuilding exposition and not-particulary-original-nowdays monsters. I would be scared shitless of ok'ing something like that in Hollywood (or, for that matter, every other visual entertainment industry on this planet) for actual money besides basically a vanity project.
This is even before considering the really dismal history of movies based on weird tales, ESPECIALLY from the USAs (which is kinda weird, as even indie can't seem to get it. One of the most "lovecraftian" movies I've seen is Marebito, which is not only japanese but is pretty fucking bizzare even for japanese horror).

I mean, you could sure fill it up with human drama and shit, but it seems like a sure way to end up between recyclying Poe badly or remaking the Thing (badly as well). That's not the strength of the story: you could MAYBE have a dramatized but still faithful-ish Dunwhich Horror or Charles Dexter Ward, but Mountains?

The main thing is the Polanski thing, the dude is sick and went out of his way to evade justice, and though a good number of signatories never retracted their statements it still unsettles me that it's something that was swept under the rug. As for him being "woke" it goes beyond that, some statements he's made have come off as so mind-numbingly retarded to me that I cannot in good conscience enjoy his work. Nothing against those that do like him, I'm just disappointed that this is the best my family's fatherland can produce.

>>97318401
>honestly if that's the most one can find to condemn him it's not awful
Fair, but honestly you never truly know with Hollywood types. A lot of the established creatives are just content to service themselves in whatever way they can. Even if someone is an up-and-comer it's almost inevitable they'll be eaten up and assimilated into the greater mass of mainstays like some fleshy Cronenberg monstrosity.

The worst part is regardless of whether or not those greentexts happened or not they totally could have been. They were made by people just like you playing games, taking the feel of playing with your bros and distilling it into the text.

Everyone knew it didn't happen, but it didn't matter - as long as no one pushed to hard the illusion would remain.

Also fuck the CAPTCHA it's dogshit.

>>97318732
It's kind of like wrestling, or the existence of Santa Claus. Whether or not the actual sessions happened that exact way is impossible to prove and rather worthless to fixate on for that fact, cause we've all dealt with asshole GMs. That Guys, and generally rotten situations enough to enjoy it. But everyone treats it like reddit in trying to be the kid trying to scream to the world that Santa Claus isn't real, or that wrestling is fake, in order to feel clever and special. It's like yeah, no shit, taking it at face value's a bad idea, now shut the fuck up about it.

It also has made me reluctant to tell my own petty stories for the mild fear that I'm going to have some smarmy underage cunt screaming that my story didn't happen. And most of the shit that's happened to me is otherwise too boring to tell. It really does suck the fun out of telling stories, especially for those times you aren't exaggerating.

I don't know, maybe it's the...darkness, so to say? Since it's crayon colored, and you took a photo of it, it looks a bit rough in the literal sense. Like, the top of the image is noticeably shadowed. Of course, I'm not exactly sure how you would avoid something like that when taking a photo myself.

The art itself looks good, though. Maybe the top head looks a little flat, but I like it.

Of course, I didn't request, it so...

Ah that, flash effect. I took several photos and this was the less dark. I'll try taking another picture tomorrow.

taking a picture of the draw and looking it in the screen is like watching the original with a microscope. I usually lower the resolution before posting so it looks smoother but feels like a cheat.

Fair enough. At the very least I could "salvage" them or individual NPCs that I do want to characterise. Since you mention Hedge Wizardry, do you use cantrips? I'm on the fence on those as well.

>>97317609
I told my players that they can select the cantrip Proficiencies if they're casters, but no one did so yet.
Only the aforementioned apprentice NPC got Hedge Wizardry, introduced him having used Overlookability to escape some Orcs. Players rescued him and one hired him as a henchman, he's currently studying to earn his last few hundred XP to get to level 1.

>>97317792
>I told my players that they can select the cantrip Proficiencies if they're casters, but no one did so yet.
I think by the Axioms rules all casters get them by default, as many cantrips as they can cast 1st level spells? Or do they require the proficiency?

>he's currently studying to earn his last few hundred XP to get to level 1.
That's another thing I'm not planning to use from ACKS, the idea that everyone can become a classed character with a few hundred XP. But that's pretty easy to house rule, I'm not worried.

>>97314510
If you think you have to do that for every NPC then you're doing something wrong.
Also if it's that big of a deal and you want them to have the proficiencies listed, just make a set of default proficiencies that everyone gets including endurance, and then just swap one out for a specialty or whatever if somebody is a specialist

>>97318590
I meant classed NPCs. 0th level NPCs are defined by their profession, so that's okay. Why are you singling out Endurance specifically, though?

replace magic with guns and artillery, if you cant balance your melee and whatnot classes or loadouts against that then you cant against mages who can do even more like altering the terrain or making an army appear out of thin air

>>97318719
Humans of course, though dwarfs are a close second

>>97318944
clarification on my own post, its not that i think magic should be an instant i win button and always the strongest option or whatever, personally id really like it if knights and martial artists and whatnot are able to compete pretty well against them, especially as i tend to really like the heavy armored knight concept

what i am saying is that magic and mages in many cases is rather comparable to an artillery squadron or even a battalion depending on various things, and just like irl, such things rather quickly become king of the battlefield without some kind of superhuman physicality or smth to compete with them

im not accounting for air raid bombings or naval artillery or what have you cause thats more comparable to stuff like large scale ritual magic or the use of magic airships and whatnot, which usually require many people working together to build and get running, rather than regular magic which only needs the one dude, usually

>>97318755
>How did they even fit a Dire Wolf though the door before I doubled the size?

>A creature's space is the area in feet that it effectively controls in combat, not an expression of its physical dimensions. A typical Medium creature isn't 5 feet wide, for example, but it does control a space that wide. If a Medium hobgoblin stands in a 5-foot-wide doorway, other creatures can't get through unless the hobgoblin lets them.
>A creature can squeeze through a space that is large enough for a creature one size smaller than it. Thus, a Large creature can squeeze through a passage that's only 5 feet wide. While squeezing through a space, a creature must spend 1 extra foot for every foot it moves there, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls and Dexterity saving throws. Attack rolls against the creature have advantage while it's in the smaller space.

>>97315268
> Sucks too because it was my first time in the GM seat.
And you expected to be good at it?

>>97315268
Did your players seem miserable during the session? It's not rare for a first time GM to be overly self-conscious and to be keenly aware of every little mistake, even ones that don't really bother the players at all. Even if thing actually went bad in a way your players noticed too, eh, it's not a big deal. It was your first time, mistakes are bound to happen. First time I ran a game I had a super-special, completely overpowered half-dragon NPC literally force the players into a fetch quest the characters otherwise had no reason to be interested in. I got better, you will too, and if you actually had something worth running figured out you're off to a better start than I was, no matter how badly you bungled the execution.

>>97315268
>it was my first time in the GM seat
>>97315300 says it concisely. The first game I ran was nearly a TPK because I didn't know shit about how to balance encounters. You'll get better

>>97314882
That's a mechanical systems issue. Whatever game system you're using should have clearly defined mechanics regarding the action economy of all your characters' abilities and attacks, along with targeting and line of sight rules.
It's not up for interpretation.
There is no "should". And the fact you used "should" right there, tells us that you were the one in the wrong.
