But I have been looking for somewhere other than the fancord to talk about this game and it's like a desolate wasteland out there. All that homebrew lying around like the ruins of some long-lost civilisation, and nary a single conversation from before the year 2020.
>>97368948>the fancordHow can you stand the place?
>>97364510>looking over what the Abyssals companion will be about>Stretch Goals (~5,000 words each)>More Underworld Locales x2>Additional Abyssal Charms x2>Additional Necromancy x2 (including additional undead constructs)>More on Ghosts>More Abyssal QCs>Storytelling Advice>Deathlord QCs x2>More Soulsteel Artifacts>Shadowland LocationsWell that's fucking grim, I wanted more Hekatonkhieres dammit. For heavens' sake, if you people want the Underworld to be more lively maybe expand it beyond the Deathlords and their petty melodrama, and have substantive movers and shakers out there other than the twins instead of having everything be basically wallpaper inhabited by pushover ghosts.
>>97368969The secret is to go at it in small doses. I only go there to ask after news I'm not caught up on, and request obscure homebrew. It's been easier recently since it's must easier to be positive about Infernals than it's been for a lot of 3e things.
>>97368948I mentioned the SV Exalted megathread earlier. It has some good discussion every now and then, though it also has long periods of little activity. It's a bit too much of a playground of one clique of a few regular posters with strong opinions, though, which is why I mostly just lurk there without posting. It's also currently very much pro-3E territory, in big part because a couple of writers post there and are a part of the aforementioned clique.

green and black enchantmentwhenever a creature dealt damage by a creature you control this turn dies (in combat?), if those creatures had different powers, make a black X/X horror(? a more green-friendly type?) creature creature token where X is the difference. also probably do this only once each turnthis came to me in a dream
Neat!
>>97368866Wow what a really unique deck. Really flexing your creativity with this one.
>>97368965you're right i didnt flex properly. i have the fancy time spiral remastered one. ;)

Previous thread: >>97295718GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: what's the best classic GURPS cover art?

>>97302294That format is when I began playing for the first time. I tried to copy that dino deck but I couldn't afford that jurrac card or thunder king lmao. I also ran Kabazauls instead of Warwolf plus that other dinosaur xyz card. I quit yugioh sometime during the rampant link era powercreep.
>>97302100>What are the formats with the most deck diversity and fairness (many decks have a chance of winning against the meta)?If you're talking about recent history; DIFO format. That's the state of the game just before Power of the Elements released, where the power level was in a goldilocks zone where everything was competent but nothing was peerless. You could more broadly apply it to Branded/Despia's time in the spotlight (so 2021 and early parts of 2022).Was the format perfect? Absolutely not. The Terrible Trio of Savage Dragon, Baronne, and Apollousa were all running rampant, and Mystic Mine was still legal for the majority of it before an absolutely embarrassing YCS showing where a bunch of yugitubers got together to make the event as horrible as humanly possible with the express intent of getting the card banned. But like I mentioned; Nothing in the meta was peerless. As long as your deck was at least semi-competent, and ideally if they had a semi-decent matchup against them at least, you could knock tiered meta decks down by a couple of pegs.
Necromancy 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.

>>97368892what's wrong with Hell Let Loose? I think the last time I played it was when they released that map that was mostly a fight over the big bridge in the center but it was a fun game. Biggest issue I had was every decent server with low ping was always full and when you got in you never got to play as the class you like
Tabletop RPGs tend to split up crafting into a high number of crafting subskills for every individual area of expertise. There's no question that crafting is still extremely powerful despite forcing you to go through this hassle, but what are your thoughts on which particular crafting subskills tend to be the most useful in the context of a TTRPG campaign, be it a medieval or modern or sci-fi setting?Pic related is from Legend of the Five Rings, where I'll be playing a crafter soon, and I intend to invest heavily into crafting. But feel free to talk about any game you've had experience with.

Clerics having wizard-like magic powers (in the vein of D&D and dertivates) is too over the top. How can I make their abilities more subtle?

>>97362388Their spells should be thematically appropriate to their deity. Not a free for all.

>>97367487Funny how my flavor of autism is whipping ChatGPT to generate image slop out of interesting moments we've have during our sessions as if I'm preparing for early onset dementia and aphantasiaI thought about toning it down a bit when I started to prepare a new campaign from a guide book. However, I'm not gratified with the book's artstyle so I just keep RAM prices up by myself at this point. At least I only use AI images for tokensI should have listened to mama and drawn more as a kid. Now, no time/talent/other shitty excuses
Mike Mearls attempts to balance level 11+ spellcasters in 5e:https://www.patreon.com/posts/148007088>Here's what I propose for the paragon wizard:[...]>Let's keep spells and slots of levels 6 and higher.[...]>A wizard gets five level 5 spell slots. They regain those slots when they take a 1 minute rest. Is that busted? It sounds powerful, but compared to what other characters can do I think it's reasonable. Fireball cast with a level 5 slot does 10d6 to everything in an encounter. That's 35 damage. At level 11, you can expect to fight CR 8 and higher creatures in numbers. Those monsters have well over 100 hit points. The fireball leaves a mark, but it is not much of one. As you'll see with the fighter, that output looks nice but falls short of classes throwing attacks down range. If we re-orientate epic level encounter building to big fights rather than a war of attrition, this should work.I do not know about this. Mike still seems to think "Fireball" and not "Banishment" or "Wall of Force."
So, I'm toying with making a Tiefling Russian-Tatar-coded character front the Silk Road. I'm thinking of making her a rogue / bard. If bard, what instrument should she carry? A balalaika, a kobyz or some Turkish/tatar flute. Maybe both? Are there other suitable instruments?

What's your theory for why all the talent is leaving Leder Games?What’s your worst/best board game break up story?
>>97368721I don't know whyd you ever play mage knight in a group, its at best a 1-2 player game.It's a top tier solo game because it has a lot of fun crunchy choices but there is almost 0 game interaction with other players, it's effectively solitaire
>>97368662Given your personality, probably.
>>97368721I've played it a bit, ask away
>>97368721Mage Knight is excellent, but not in a group. I've played as a 3, and it was fine, but anything above that there is far too much downtime. And like >>97368772 says there is hardly any interaction. Even if you play competitive, there probably won't be any pvp and it's not especially fun when there is. There's like 4 competitive spells in the entire deck and each knight has 1 competitive skill out of 10, so you might never see anything competitive.
>>97368857I havent played much PVP either, but even without combat players between it changes the game, cause you cant fully exhaust yourself next to another player or theyll steal your lunch money.
