>>97358564>pre-Sun Tzu LiaoI always had a respect for those kind of Liao fans. The moment they go full space China they lose everything interesting about them.
>>97358523He'll need more ASF.
>>97357691Cockpits usually have some breathing space, this one is one of... I'd say more typical or medium ones? Some mechs have I'd say a power rangers Megazord sized room I'd say while mechs with the cramped cockpit trait are obviously smaller.
>>97358591Agreed, going full XIN SHENG was the worst that happened to Liao. Sun Tzu getting them a few wins was cool at first, you have to give them something to be actually useful as antagonists, but then they went overboard and went full china which made the faction less interesting. They should've stayed the underdog that simply knew they can't win against other houses in a fair fight so they fortified the shit out of their worlds, learned to play dirty vietnam-style and managed to have a few stealth technology breakthroughs out of desperation. I did like the abolishment of the servitor class tho, I know I said I liked them being schizo assholes but there has to be something nice I can say about them once in a while.
>>97358493>>97358523I am still of a mind that while Battlemechs are king, good air support is something to have. Fighter-Bombers that can drop laser guided munitions or can fly around and flank with heavy-hitting Autocannons and missiles, that sort. Still spitballing. Thinking most would be SPR-6D Sparrowhawks, LTN-16T Lightnings, with a singular Xerxes for when shit hits the fan.>>97358514>Clan Tech. I like to think that only their best lance would have Clan Tech, or even Clan Mechs, with the rest of the company given a good set of high tech but IS-Based weaponry and battlemechs. No introtech mechs here.>>97358604Saved. Honestly I might boot up MWO just so I can see the Commando's cockpit and use that as a reference.

>>97358295>>97358359>>97358411Ignition is a Yugioh effect type. It just a Sorcery/Spell Speed 1 effect that you can choose to use in your Main Phase.
>>97358295permanentthe effect apply during all the game even if the card isn't there anymore>continuousthe effect apply when the card is played and the effects doesn't apply when it leaves the field
>>97358517>permanentThese are awful. It's always had to keep track of stuff like this.
>>97358596indeed. I don't know if I should keep ot or not
>>97358602I think you should come up with the game's rules before deciding what kinds of effects you want.
What sci-fi setting has the best Space Rome?
Always loved the roman influence in star trek when it came to the romulans
>>97340399Nah the Hegemony are the good guys, I myself almost exclusively play for the Hegemony **Total Faggot League Death and Total Tri-Cuck Death**
>>97344214>he bends the kneeSend another inspection fleet, I'm sure they'll survive the trip this time.
>>97336278>Famed for it's military despite it's numerous military failures and questionable quality of soldiers>Conquer the Galaxy primarily through trade and bribery rather than outright conflict>Fought a competing commercial empire in a life and death struggle orchestrated by itself>Took over effectively the entire known universe then inexplicably stopped rather than deal with the weird sand people>Retarded Senate is ousted by Charismatic Senator with private military>Rebellions and Civil Wars are fought but are incapable of actually making anything better than the height of the Empire>Centuries later people still larp about being the true descendents
>>97346147>he actually fights the inspection fleets instead of just bribing themWhy though? It's much easier to spend a story point and 20k credits which is basically nothing in the midgame, am I too much of a space jew to understand this or something?
5 person Level 5 party.
>>97356759>CR 2No one is facing those guys with Level 3 spell slots.
>>97358319OP said level 5 players, they have level 3 spell slots. And most modern DnD DMs only run one combat encounter per adventuring day anyway, so it's not like caster fags ever have to worry about actually running out of spell slots. (Most casterfags don't even keep track of their spell slots anyway.)Then again this all just circles back to the point >>97355007 made about DnD 5e/5.5e combat being an unfun tedious slog where any more than one combat encounter per session is honestly torture.
>>97358319In 5e, Mimics only have 58 HP. Fireball does an average of 30ish points of damage if I recall correctly. Two fireballs and everything in the encounter is dead except the ghost. >Look up Ghosts>They have even LESS HP somehow at 45, despite being double the CR of the Mimic.>No resistance to magical damage eitherOK, yeah, two fireballs just wipes the entire encounter. To say nothing for shit like Hypnotic Pattern that could lock down the entire encounter with ONE casting if the caster is lucky. Great game-design.
cleric with turn undead = ggBut real question is why a mimic is working with undead
>>97353633What am I looking at here? Why the fuck do you need to do fucking algebra to make a "balanced" encounter in this game? Do DnD DMs really do this shit?

>>97358076>PeligalsAren't these sea dwelling human mutants?
>>97358262Prehuman civilisation I believe, going by their Lords of Creation entry.
>>97358262>>97358606Oops, meant Lands.>>97356903>The Exaltation is actually a self-serving, malicious possessing spirit that drives it's hosts towards conflict to iteratively improve based on combat data>Nothing meaningfully changes
>>97354754Also to be clear the Primordials, Yozis and Neverborn do come off as massive, petty cunts. It is just that they are cunts with a sense of grandeur, wonder and genuine passion (their love for music and dance) that through the magic of White Wolf writing, is somehow completely absent from the Exalted. Like, if you ask me who’s COOLER between the fallen titans and the Twilight who cursed an entire kingdom because Low Key stole his ho, or Raksi, I’m going to vote for the Yozi 9 times out of 10. And on the 10th time, I will at least acknowledge the Ebon Dragon is more upfront about being a villain than Desus.
>>97358634>somehow completely absent from the Exalted.NTA I agree with you in regards to 3e but 1e is full of kino exalted characters that mog the Yozi imo.

>>97358527>>97358503>>97358536If you're a mech player a pair of vultarax is a great investment, massive annoyances to the pesky dreadnoughts and kratoses, super durable compared to their cost, and in the late game if your opponent has failed to deal with them they can switch to easily status blasting and charging their backline tac squads to deny them the last few turns of scoring
>>97358546That's you lacking taste, vultarax are super cool. Progenitors to the blight drones, but bigger and bulkier.
>>97358619And yet blight drones (the old FW ones anyways) look far cooler, both because the fly motif actually fits nurgle and because theyre like 50% gun by volume. The vulturax looks like it has two havoc launchers, which on something as massive as it? Lame.
>>97358593how many points is that list in the pic anon, give us a rundown?

Emotional support elf editionDiscuss elves.Post elves.Love elves.All elf lore, game stories art and any else that's elfy is all appreciated.Thread question: To what extent do elves share their wisdom and experience with other races to help them emotionally and psychologically?previous thread: >>97278632

Should an elven wizard be more powerful on average than a human one? Explain your answer.

>>97358387classic noldorfagging strawman
>>97356728>CouldMaybe.>ShouldDepends on the system, but mostly on luck.>Explain your answerPretty sure that elves have some kind of learning disability to need to spend hundreds of years to learn the same thing humans can in a hundredth the time. So a headstart isn't going to mean much in terms of power overall.
>>97358443>Any that features the above settings or can run then in homebrewThey have very different rules for spellcasting, and different attributes being important. Like for instance, wisdom doesn't matter for D&D wizards (outside of saves), but it matters for channeling spells in Warhammer Fantasy. In this system anyway, elves can master any sphere of magic and learn High Magic, while human wizards are incapable of doing so.Let alone the difference in age and also powerlevels for characters.>>97358482>Pretty sure that elves have some kind of learning disability to need to spend hundreds of years to learn the same thing humans can in a hundredth the timeThat really isn't the case in any system or in any halfway serious setting.Elves being dumb children for hundreds of years is a shitty anime trope.
>>97358501>Elves being dumb children for hundreds of years is a shitty anime trope.Relax bro, just having a giggle since it's just a joke thread.Though I didn't even take that from anime, it's the bogstandard joke of how an elven adventurer starts at level 1 like everyone else despite an adult elf generally being in the triple digits for years lived compared to them, surprised you couldn't recognize it

>>97354371>>97354386seconding Empathy
>>97354386I thought about it, but I'd like for it to also apply when getting a read on places and objects. Not sure Empathy makes sense as a word for that. Feeling, sensation... Something, something...
>>97354386>>97354402Oh, how does Insight sound? A bit close to intellect letter wise, but I think it's identifiable enough.
>>97354416Insight sounds fine to me. Intuition is good as well if you wanna go with something in the same vain.I would have personally gone with Wits
>>97354371Intuition is fine, honestly. It's pretty spot on what you are trying to convey.

>>97355069You can point to the start of a problem, but if other people are actively perpetuating it, especially for selfish reasons, they have their own share of the blame too.
>>97333081reading this on a whim
>>97355069Rajaat was the one who started the fire, but his fifteen human disciples are the ones keeping the flame going. And as the current sorcerer kings, they’re fighting every possible chance to fix the world for their own selfish gain.

Is it possible?I like scifi as a genre because all the new tech that show us, but in terms of aesthetics, always looks like shit.Do you know any scifi RPG with good aesthetics? Even if it's just concepts, draws or artworks.PD: If someone is going to say 40k, I admit it has cool things, but I don't find it pleasant.
>>97347751It's not like you can't have a mix of both old and new in a manner, see Stargate for instanceAlso idk how you can say Dune "looks good" when every visual interpretation of it looked way different. I like some depictions and don't care for others
>>97337980What is "good aesthetics" to you?Is it Star Wars or Star Trek? Destiny or Warhammer 40.000?Mass Effect or Starfield?Dune or The Outer Worlds?Titanfall or Starfinder? Avatar? Killzone?You gotta give us something here, anon. Do you look for Science Fantasy? Sleek and modern? Realistic? Gritty? Over the top, stylized and exaggerated? Depending on your personal taste, each of these can either be visual Gigakino or total shit.
>>97337980right's better
>>97338463>TTRPGs aren't known for their Aesthstics because they're make-believe pretend games where all the visuals happen in your head for the most part.God I wish I had Phantasia ...
>>97347883Jesus Christ, ME looks so fucking good. Even the generic people in the lineup have subtle character to them and you can tell them apart quickly. In an era of schlocky space military games it really stood apart.
