Would love to share some YTers I like to use for inspiration. Looking for anyone you find helpful. Preferably smaller creators and not restricted to 5e. I’ll submit three that I really enjoy while I’m doing prep

First I’ll submit is Desk and Dorks. The channel is made by a medieval historian and combines his knowledge of subjects to enhance games.

I particularly like his take on Bronze Age fantasy and building better town guards

>The Chekhov technique is an acting method developed by Michael Chekhov, a prominent actor and director. It emphasizes a "psycho-physical" approach, where emotions are expressed through physical gestures. This technique encourages actors to connect their inner feelings with external actions, allowing for a more dynamic performance.

Did you mix terms up? How does a theatrical, gesticulating performance generate payoff, hook your players to you ideas, or create curiosity loops except maybe to put your sanity into question. Those are all realms of the writer. Do you imagine blowing their minds with your acting or what?

I don't keep orcs as tools in my fields because of their beauty, I give two shits of what their faces look like, unlike the cats they don't take skooma or moon sugar when you ain't watching them and the lizards who keep fucking running away into the sea and get eaten by some shark or whatever lives down there. No I keep them because they are strong tools and as long you beat them every once in a while, they keep in line and treat you like as the big chief those stronghold fuckers because they respect only strength, hell I can just ask one to join me in bed and they simply agree, because I'm their chief

And yes sometimes they do have to wear a bag over their head so I don't feel disgusted so shut up N'wah

Can you nerds help me? I'm returning to Star Wars after many years for RP and I realize I don't know shit about this setting.

even if it wasnt at the end of battle its still a worse blue ot since that lets you plus from grave while already being a ninth crit
this is almost as bad as keter ot and worse than even dark states ot because the critical and drive dont carry over to the second attack

might be the worst ot we have ever gotten
>>
>>97228461
+drive for turn could at least potentially given it a niche in decks with restanding vanguards by swapping out the +1 from grave for a +2 from deck with trigger odds.
>>
>>97228472
problem with that is that +1 drive is competing with
>Dragveda who just restands your vanguard again without drive penalty, so you potentially get +2 drives on top of yet another vanguard swing
>Dark States ot that can bullshit games if you pull it early
>Blessfavor that still goes +1, possibly heals and is a front trigger
>blue ot being good in general to pull
>Eldobreath being such a blow out card late game that +1 drive looks pathetic in comparison
There's nearly no restander that has a weaker option than +1drive/crit and it's bizarre how, after all of the powercreep, this is what they settled on for a new ot, even if it was until end of turn

Welcome to the New School Revolution General, the thread dedicated to games derived from the OSR movement.

>What is NSR?
>NSR is a subcategory of the OSR, it mostly follows the same play style but experiments further with the mechanics and settings.
>Broadly NSR games have a gm, a living world, are rules light, deadly and focus on emergent narrative, interaction and exploration.

>What is this thread NOT for?
Meta discussions or drama of the games and its creators aka shadowboxing with twitter, reddit and the OSRG (frens with osrbros)
>stay on topic

>games
Shadowdark, into the odd, mausritter, cairn, mörk borg (and its hacks), dungeon crawl classics, mothership, knave, troika!, whitehack, blackhack, old school essentials (we know this is just a retroclone), etc.

>>97226602
We mostly talked about mothership, which had enough hype to get enough people playing it a bit. The rest is a lot harder to get into beyond very basic dungeon outline or room content advice and even then mechanical distinctions in a lot of nsr is all over the place so the discussions get very vague and abstract. Which is feasible for a bit but one can only say
>make sure the room has interactivity
in some many ways.
>>
>>97226610
>>97227753
Its cross compatibility that most of the fanatics are missing the point of. One of the highlights of actual osr material is that its cross compatible. You can run B1 in it with minimal effort and you can run any module from it with Basic with minimal effort. There can be much wailing and gnashing of teeth about what that effort entails but most of the nsr systems get far away enough it is more effort than with a retroclone to the extent it may very well be a different game.
Being a different game is okay, its just harder to tie in or for the wider community to get much out of.
Oh there we go. NSR just takes, it doesn't contribute. lmao We're the orcs.
>>
>>97229467
If we're being honest a big problem is also that a lot of NuSR enthusiasts really are "collectors" who don't run the games they buy, ie nogames paypigs. That's the unfortunate reality: many of these games are *primarily* reading material for guys who buy them instead of Funko Pops. Which means a significant part of any given print run never gets used, which further reduces the available conversation about those games.
