>>97247885>cis womenThere are only women. Adult human females. XX chromosomes. Anything else is an insane man or a genetic freak.
>>97248000You can be as deranged a loser as you want; it doesn't change the fact that some cisgender women with XX chromosomes have Adam's apples.

How to run the Jabberwock as the main monster for a session
Writing General: 'festive' editionWelcome to /wg/, the thread for all /tg/ related writing. Whether you're plotting your campaign, trying to come up with a character backstory, or just trying to write some setting fluff, this is the place to post it. You don't even have a campaign, just an idea you want to develop? You're welcome here. While the rest of /tg/ is arguing over monstergirl mating and which way rivers are supposed to flow, we're here to help you turn your thoughts into an actual finished product.As the successor to the Storythreads, we're also open to /tg/ related fanfiction (D&D, Warhammer, Battletech, whatever). In fact, if you've written any vaguely /tg/-related short stories, you can try them out here. We also have flash-fiction challenges from time to time.There's a discord for writers herehttps://discord.gg/6AwKHGFThe previous thread can still be found in the archive here>>96644454And finally an archive of /tg/ fiction can be found here:http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (dead link, but may be resurrected one day)https://2d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (page missing, wiki still up)Comment too long.

Merry Christmas, anons!Hope you all had a good one.
>>97133758What resources, random generators, etc. do you use when writing supers settings?
Recently I was thinking about alternative combat systems.I remember someone talking about instead of HP the payer has a Jenga tower and he needs to remove peaces once hit, the skill is to remove peaces without the tower collapsingSo I started thinking.For example what if the combat somehow involves cups and balls?Instead of a D20+modifier nonsense why not change it up? Why not give a player 10 balls or legos or whatever and to win an encounter the player needs to land 2 balls in 1 cup?There can be variants of this like a super hard encounter demands the player lands all 10 balls or what about reducing the size of the cup with the difficulty of combat?What if we implement a fate system from Talisman for the players? What if legendary bosses have something like that for themselves? And can negate the players victory? What if different monsters use different "balls" like for example some bone golems will be you throwing legos into cups and zombies are aluminum balls while naga can be gummy bears? That actually makes the monster feel different and not a copy pasted set of numbers. Also the different aerodynamics of these "balls" are part of the fun.Comment too long.

>>97239642The idea is cool, in the same way motion controls are.They COULD actually improve a real life skill, but that means at least minor physical exertion. Given the mindset of most people in Tabaletop games, it's going to fail.If I wanted to improve myself I wouldn't be playing a tabletop game. They are leisure. And trying to sneak in actual effort, be it ever so trivial, will result in disappointment.I know everyone here is gigachad, but be honest for a second and look at the average tabletop gamer. If they had even the slightest will to change they would've long ago.
...so is the gag here that OP is upset he had to solve a puzzle, instead of just rolling an 'Intelligence check'?
>>97244751>You got that right, sister???The thread was about other people bringing other systems that are like this.Clearly /tg/ is a total failure, back to your mass produced corporate D&D slop consumeroid!>>This is not even a coherent ideaWTF did you expect?I did have the idea and I wanted to see anything relate to the subject before trying this with my game group. Clearly /tg/ is useless.
TG nerds are inventing sport from first principles
>>97243007>Why not repeat it in other games? It worked well for a horror game designed around one shots and Dread already filled that niche.>>97238257Dexterity based ttrpgs are mostly good as a gimmick and nobody wants to carry a moving box full of props to game night.>>97239023>And this is a bad thing.

>>97248285There's cheaper (and cheesier) ways to get concealment, but that's a good one too.

Who was in the right?
>>97245039Certain social engineering options are hard-locked for certain factions, no? Lal can't use Police State, Zakharov can't use Fundamentalist, etc. unless there is a late-game option I'm not remembering.>>97245029Kingdom or Microscope make sense, yes. I've also considered using Out of the Ashes to cover the establishment of a new base immediately after Planetfall.>>97245488Interesting. I've played (and loved) their Conan game, but I've heard mixed things about the Dune version of the system. What has your experience been with it?>>97245843I mean, I thought the janky mechanics were part of the charm!>>97246921In the base game, maybe, but Alien Crossfire implies that "the Flowering" has a potent psychic component that can reach across interstellar distances. So it is possible that simply moving into orbit, or even fleeing to a nearby star, would not be enough.Alien Crossfire is pretty weird, though.
>>97222356This is literally Carriers of Linked EarthAre you working anon?
>>97247737>Certain social engineering options are hard-locked for certain factions, no?You're right, there are aversions each faction has to the early game choices like free market or police state. The later game options are more open.
>>97245488A game that lets you shift scale between marco strategic/political and operational agents could be neat, been meaning to check out the new Dune game for that. >>97246884The clones are chickens. Not for eating. Just for mass production fodder. Could be alluding to several things. >factions mass produce garbage because its easier and faster causing more problems>death by talent is real so you can only clone crap in quantity but that causes other problems Al lot of the genetic engineering stuff is a bit fucked like the genejack. >Tyranny you ask? How can you tyrannize someone who can not feel pain?
>>97248116I believe it's male chicks being sorted for maceration, which they do in factory farming because they don't need them for anything.It's pretty easy to see they're suggesting a hardcore eugenics program using cloning to fill in the gaps left by euthasia/sterilization of lesser people. The Spartans Santiago leads named themselves after a Greek tribe who were famous for committing infanticide, disposing of sickly or malformed children at birth.
Thoughts on this man?
>>97153793you know whats insane? every other member of critical role has been getting massively overpaid for playing d&d for a living, for years. and they still need things explained to them like it is their very first session ever playing. it drives me insane and its why i can never watch them. they want to be drama kids so bad but even still, they have to bog down every single episode with rule explanations, for the most simple roleplaying system ever. THAT THEY GET PAID MILLIONS TO PLAY, FULL TIME, AS A JOB. how does it happen? how? i mean they must legitimately be sub 80 IQ.
>>97228496I never managed to watch more than two minutes of critical role because the amount of faggotry was way too much for me but he genuinely seems like an interesting dude and is pretty nice to listen to. I guess that's how things are sometimes.
>>97248051this is true all across YouTube, in a way.>listening to Mark Kermode, film critic, on the radio>he researched, he watched the film, he took notes>watching RedLetterMedia, film reviewers, on YouTube>"You went to the bathroom at that point, but..."people who didn't even watch the entirety of a film are telling me the film sucks. and this is their job, on this nu internet. wtf.

>>97150767Thats a bold statement! I would differentiate them by A- and Z-celebs!
You have to play Monopoly.Which Monopoly do you play?
would be interested in playing the 1930s (?) rules with the separate landlord's game mode and tenants' game mode.
Whichever one I find in a charity shop so no more money goes to Hasbro.
>>97247712I dunno, ask /bgg/
>>97247712Whats the differences? Just street names? Or special rules?
>>97247712None.It's a godawful game.

>>97247606sorry bud, even accounting for the wider hips and flexibility of women this cannot be accommodated by any human anatomy
>>97247726Ah, but it can, the same way you can fit space marines into their armor. Canon says you can, and no amount of redlining will change it.
>>97247811what kind of retard logic is this? why cant you just admit the model is badly designed and looks dumb because of it?
>>97245552I want to know who in their fucking design team decided to make ANOTHER god damned Imperial baby carrier. You could maybe get away with an Ork baby carrier like a warboss with a grot strapped to his chest, or a chaos chosen with a mutated thing growing from their torso. But Sisters of all factions? Come on mate.
>>97247726I challenge you. I say she is spread eagle sitting in that armor. You forget the third dimension, the Vitruvian Man is only two dimensional!

Moloch's Fun Park 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.

I saw some Napoleonic stuff and felt inspired. If I made a dirge warband would it be pushing the boat out of I made it Napoleonic themed? Like the leader is a undead general on a horse, etc, since dirge actually is allowed to give zombies guns and they even get a "canon" it seems like it could be fun to make for, but is it too far off the setting of the game?
>>97247943>Like the leader is a undead general on a horseSounds metal, do it.
>>97246088What are they armed with?
>>97246088Anon, we need to know how many ducats and glory you have (as the biologist is available only for 3 glory) and what role you're trying to have these guys to fill. As it is I can say pretty definitively say if you're going for the 3 armor on the MHI with a shield, just spend the 10 points to get machine armor to keep both hands free. Can you voice a bit of backdoor here to explain things a bit?

Is there any point in taking this sweeping order as a Sergeant in Only War?Is there any way beyond Inspire to help with countering against Pinning tests?Feels very weird half the squad immediately recovers from pinning with snap out of it! while the actually important members (the PCs) are shit out of luck.
