Christmas edition▶What is Kingdom Death?Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0AcThe Game is broken up into 3 phases:1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97282148I've seen some scans in the purple site but far from a complete collections.Recast prices jump between $2-3 bucks for small models and up to $20-ish for big things like Spidicules.
>>97269759I can see a licensed TTRPG eventually. I doubt he personally works on any other KD projects though
>>97282601Thanks anon. Our group had put in for it on BF and just wanted a condensed version of what we are getting into (and what ill probably end up painting).>>97283913I enjoy seeing the realm expand too. Problem is it was left on "vague" setting for so long we have some of our own lore to fill the gaps that might be contradictory to official lore and that bums me out sometimes.>>97284996Havent played arcs yet but isn't that essentially a ttrpg with them?
>>97286783Arcs are just a more robust progression system for survivors. Still not really ttrpg
>>97282601You forgot the hardcover rulebook for all 12 original expansions
After about 8 years since I last DM'ed a game, I've been asked to run a session. Unfortunately my books - adnd, 2e, 3e, 3.5, 4e, and 5e are in storage two states away.And i prefer physical copies. Thanks to critical role and the movie DND books have gone up in price which is weird.>4e books are ~10-15$ now. Is it viable to run 4e in 2025? I don't remember hating it and I still remember some home rules to streamline combat to speed it up a touch. Does anyone have suggestions for 1-3lvl adventures or campaign settings? >4e thread I guess
>>97287056>quick random encountersQuick random encounters are shit. If there's no chance of the party losing then you should either handwave the fight or not have it at all. Its the same as having players roll for shit that has 0 consequences for failure.
>>97287040Sorry, I should have clarified better that I would not be running ALL of seasons 8-12 but using them as guidelines and idea resources to run the short campaign. As for how long, I was thinking maybe from levels 1 to 5. Some of the players are major skeptics to the systems (one player in particular) but they have agreed that if I were to run they would play but only for a short campaign to get a feel for how the system works and whether "it's as bad as people say" basically.
>>97287089You do multiple ~15 min quick fights more for power fantasy and resource attrition. Blasting through a small pack of weak mooks with at-wills and maybe an encounter power lets the PCs feel strong while giving them a few nicks and bruises to eat away the their healing surges. This actually heightens feelings of progression and they also give bigger fights a greater sense of gravitas and grandeur compared to every fight being a 1+ hour tactical slog.
>>97287194>resource attritionThat only works if you prevent them from resting between fights. Otherwise all they're realistically losing is a couple healing surges which is incredibly marginal.
>>97287218As long as they are not trying to take long rests the minor healing surge attrition/rationing is the point. The idea is to get about 6 different encounters in between long rests rather than the 1 or 2 fights per long rest rhythm that 4e usually ended up with.
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

>>97275418No thread question. I guess I'll ask for advice from some anons here.I'm planning on running a Shadowdark game soon. I'm wanting to flavor it as something not-european fantasy. Currently leaning towards arabic/persian themed as that is decently promoted, but nothing is set yet. Any good sources for non-european based games.

If you told me a few years ago that I'd be primarily using fucking Army Painter warpaints I would've called you a retard. Genuinely what a gargantuan upgrade from the old crap, can't recommend it enough
>>97284166It was obviously comical hyperbole but since it went right over your head and you're being a humourless dick about it.Guy who learnt his techniques as a kid and has to match hundreds of years old paints, glazes, finishes using materials which he has often has first to source the raw materials for, many of which haven't been made for centuries, before he can try mixing them without knowing the exact proportion of ground, pigments, solvents, binders, other additives, size of pigment particles, how they will be affected by the need to layer, apply a surface treatment, sand down, match texture, artificially age, let alone all the other work he does in reconstruction and repair before he can even apply the colour since all of those will affect the colour matching.versusBuy a couple of paints off the shelf.Use a measuring spoon or pipette.Your comparison is invalid and unreasonable.
>>97277739It really isn't once you're used to it. Especially with dropper bottles. If in doubt just use a syringe/pipette
>>97286702okay so you are genuinely retarded, good to know. a person can spend whatever amount of time and paint mixing shit till they get the right formula or they can buy the same color thats used on the box for like, 2 dollars more than normal. Seems like a pretty easy choice to me.
>>97277498Same. When I was a newbie I had mostly Citadel like a basic baby faggot.Tried AP 2.0 and its great, a few bucks cheaper than Citadel too.
>>97278308The effectiveness of mixing paint depends on the purity of the pigment, and miniatures paints will turn to browngreymud faster than single pigment artists paints will when mixing multiple colors.

>>97287189>Is Liren not in high school anymore?He is still in high school, I had him at 17-18 years old, right at the end of school. He doesn't have perfect attendance and cares more about his part-time job at an antique store, he's smart/strange enough that exams are not a problem even if he doesn't follow the lessons.>What was the arranged marriage originally for?Liren comes from a shrine family with a lot of traditions, one of those was an aranged marriage, he was supposed to be married off to someone that could benefit the shrine. That could have been a pretty wide category of people, going from someone from another shrine family and as such with spiritual power and training, to more material reasons like just being rich or being the heir of an exceptional crafstsman. Liren being what he is never cared about it, and on his side there is no family left that would try to enforce it since they are all either dead or ran away, but the same could not be true for the other side and the engagement is still technically active sine nobody bothered to cancel it. Despite not being interested in the marriage part of it he would still want to investigate it because it's a "connection" and he's kinda obsessed with those.Out of character it just looked like a more interesting version of childhood friend/moon's love to have a hook to something still in Kageoka, and felt fitting for his background. I was told it's not that fitting for the current cast, and looking at it I kinda aggree, there are not many good candidates for it, so the story arc wouldn't really work in that case. I wasn't baiting for a ship, it was probably gonna end in friendship rather than romance, unless somehow the other anon had different plans but I don't see how that could happen. I could try to make it work but it doesn't feel worth it, now that I look at it while I don't have a fever it clearly feels like romance bait and I don't feel like forcing it would make sense.
>>97287339I think it's more just finding a site that doesn't care to implement registration and hope that none of us get doxxed or our threads raided.
>>97287336>The 900 second timerI remember that, man what where they thinking when they did that. The 120 second timer afterwards was better but still annoying. Now even with all the problems at least the timer is only 60 seconds.

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.

Bro just stitch the set togetherold.photojoiner.com
>>97286607no
Red Knights aren't exactly common, but are a recurring theme in the romances. Normally used as a stepping stone or early enemy. Naturally I had to include one in the set.
I like Enchantresses
Pretty cool cards OP. Some wording issues but I can try to go through those later if you want. Ql>>97283027This one's OP and should at least require a tap on his part. Look at Kalitas Blood chief of Ghet for reference.
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.
>>97283948If they genuinely wanted to discuss the game, they should probably post something other than obvious hollow ad copy in the op.
>>97284096I think it says a lot more about you and your play group than it does the game that you see abstract tag mechanics and think "obviously this is going to result in an argument."
>>97286031Cute, anon. But I have dealt with wannabe powergamers in the past who will rules lawyer every possible advantage they can, even if it wastes everyone's time. That's the kind of shit they live for.
>>97286031It's just objectively bad design, sorry.
>>97276085Ive had a lot of fun with it as a solo one on one game with my wife. We can take turns being the DM. I really enjoy its focus on narrative and allowance for creativity. We used to just do 5eslop for the past 4~ years but have really enjoyed finding LOTM.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere. And as we enter this happiest and newest of years, remember: 2e was never an old-school game, bait is for reporting, and fish is for smoking! Happy new year, grogs! Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency. If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help: >n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0 >Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128 >Need a starter dungeon?

>>97286902No it isn't. Hyperborea is basically the core of AD&D but without a nonsense Gygax initiative system.
>>97286902>>97286698 (me)Hyperborea definitely shares the bones but it really is its own thing. I actually quite enjoy segmented combat, so it's something I'd likely houserule back into Hyperborea.
>>97286902NAYRT but IMO it makes perfect sense. You can agree that OSRIC is the most faithful AD&D retroclone and still think Hyperborea is the *better* AD&D retroclone. LotFP occupied a very similar niche relative to B/X pre-OSE: I don't think anybody would have argued it was more faithful than Labyrinth Lord. People just liked it better.
>>97287008I think that's a fair point. Though I guess you'd want to qualify what sort of retroclone it is as >>97286631did.
>>97287008Hyperborea is not a retroclone.

Is it normal for booster boxes to cost like fifty dollars?
>>97287098That depends. If it's the newest boxes and it has something meta-relevant, they'll typically go for ~$120. If it's something slightly older and not meta relevant, the price can be anywhere between $70 and $20 in LED9's case. It's all about demand + the knowledge that a lot of their cards are getting reprinted in tins.

How would adding a female only paladin order improve your setting?
>>97285712A plus. I like nuns, I like angelic women. I like when both sometimes wear highheels.
>>97285712Worked for 40k for a bit.
>>97285712Historically, abbesses wielded real political power, controlled lands, and some could even mint coins or raise troops. You could expand this: make religious orders one of the few paths to education and political influence, creating a parallel power structure. The Church could require female representation in certain councils, or have traditions where certain theological or diplomatic roles are reserved for women.Prolonged conflicts or crusade-equivalents could create precedents where women defend castles, lead forces, or serve as military commanders out of necessity - which then becomes normalized over time.Different inheritance laws make a massive difference. Gavelkind (dividing inheritance among all children) versus primogeniture, or systems where daughters inherit in absence of sons. You could have regions with different legal traditions that create interesting dynamics when noble families intermarry.

>>97285768The wound on his back ignited a surge of primal, animalistic rage within the Howler, causing him to completely ignore the strange voice in his head. He charged directly at the creature that had injured him, intent on chopping, ripping, and tearing it apart.His underlings, though already weary, maintained their discipline and formed up to engage the approaching force of bizarre, humanoid beasts. These were no mere ragtag highwaymen, united only by common colors and a shared paymaster, like those they might have faced before. Moreover, no one knew how many ranged fighters those dogs of war still had hidden in the surrounding woods.Don't forget that Howler is a werewolf because of his curse, so this might make him resist Skogs' attempts to control him.
