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 prepFirst 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

Everyone I know who watches Fatt Coville videos is a fucking terrible GM. I've never fully watched one and I am widely considered the best GM out of all 3 groups I'm part of. I am regularly requested to run campaigns. People borderline fall asleep in the games others run. There's also no tension because they know that these Coville acolytes will fudge rolls until all PCs survive the battle. If you're a good GM, it's an inmate talent you can hone over time. You're born that way. If you aren't, then no amount of shitty advice is going to make up for your lack of talent. It just is what it is. This idea that everyone should "try" DMing is retarded. The idea that anyone can be good at it? lolno. Its like some fat divorced on who suddenly decides he's gonna become a famous author. Fat chance. Most people fucking suck at GMing. Hell, most of them suck at playing, but at least in that case the game depends less on them.
>>97232573That's because most of the advice is lifted from reddit, who lifted it from old blogs and forums, which, in turn, was lifted from Dragon magazine and earlier publications.
>>97232339Man, now this is some classic autism right here

>>97232552Once you start hating queer people, it takes over your brain and you become incapable of shutting the fuck up about it.

>>97231280>I'm more focused on an aspect that's probably the most worthless to playing tabletop gamesCool. You'll fit right in on this board.
>>97231280Look preference is based on the game and the premise. No point in doing Furry mutants in a Mad Max-themed game, and no point doing tumormen in a TMNT game. If you're going to come here, you need to know the barest details of what playing a TTRPG is actually like.

To preface, I'm an MTG veteran. My first Precon was Coven Counters in 2021 and I've been an EDH player ever since.After years of playing, I think the WUBRG elemental may just do me in. Gimmick synergy, tribal, a real throw in anything somewhat related type of commander potential. It also has the most forced WUBRG ability to date: being able to pay WUBRG in order to keep an Elemental you Evoked is utter bullshit. It completely defeats the purpose of Evoke and is just a continuation of "drop a set, put whatever you want under 1 commander."I hate it, you hate it, and it's just a slap in the face of previous WUBRG Legendaries that tried to be something more than tribal or gimmick synergy, or just cram some WUBRG ability in last second, such as [[Atogatog]] [[General Tazri]] [[Golos, Tireless Pilgrim]] [[Jodah, the Unifier]] [[Jenson Carthalion, Druid Exile]] [[Morophon, the Boundless]] [[Najeela, Blade Blossom]] and [[Ramos, Dragon Engine]] . And I'm missing a shitton of other WUBRG Legendaries that could be Commanders.But let's look at the new WUBRG Legendaries that could be Commanders (hint: they're all tribal, gimmick synergy, or cram in a WUBRG ability last second): [[Avatar Aang]] [[Cosmic Spider-Man]] [[Hei Bai, Forest Guardian]] [[Heroes in a Half Shell]] and [[Infinite Guideline Station]] .As long as WotC keeps dropping cards like [[Horde of Notions]] , MTG will die very soon and for real this time.
>>97232405>MTG will die very soon and for real this time.

Low quality bait.EDH playing timmies will fall for it.

Also speaking of, does anyone else wish AsMaria still had his amateur illustration style? As a kid this card's art absolutely blew my mind and remains one of my favourites.
I wish DCGO had the option to let me call every Hudie player a faggot.
>>97232720they already knowvs'd a hudie at the regional last month in round 5when he flipped his egg we had this exchange>hudie eh? that's definitely a choice>"oh great">"are you going to call me a faggot as well for playing it?">I mean I didn't say that but....>"every round....."they definitely know
>>97231800You're such a fucking idiot and it pisses me off that you're allowed to haven an opinion on the internet. You know what those decks have in common? They've been hit. Of course no one cares to talk about them anymore, they're not the current fucking issue. People are complaining about Hudie because it's the current problem deck, and once Hudie gets hit we'll stop talking about it and instead talk about the next problem deck. The most annoying thing about Hudie is you can't disrupt it. Ankylomon gives -2k dp to your flood gates, and Hudiemon gives -12k dp to anything else. The only way to stop it is to outpace it with Jesmon, and yes that's also a problem but at least it can't wipe your fucking floodgates just by going into a level 4 or playing fucking Chitose. All you have to do is open your eyes to the tournament results and you'll see how fucking stupid you are. Fuck, I hated Fenrir Take and I hate Hudiemon.
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.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.

>>97232095Wilderlands of High Fantasy is cool, but I wouldn't say it's easily accessible. The information is scattered all over the place, often internally contradictory, and it doesn't help newbies figure out how to use the whole hot mess.
God, it's nice in here now, huh. I know I'm probably jinxing it, but I just have to say how nice it is to talk substantially about games again.
I think it's interesting that there isn't much in the way of guidelines for the mod sclae outdoor adventures. There's plenty for hexcrawling, where movement units are measured miles. But B2 style overland resources are somewhat lacking.

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.

Which of the Armies are recommended for the newest players? I've been excited to start my own warband part of the New Antioch. Yet is that the best way to go?
>>97231838>Also [I have] a 3d printer but with no idea how to use it yetLearn to use that first.
>>97231914I'm trying anon. I really am.
>>97231387To steal from another wargame I've played, one of the factions can 'Evolve'.Each unit has two things they can 'evolve' into. By default the player can evolve one unit a turn, but some abilities let them try to evolve more.For example, their chaff unit has two evolutions- Kill self and turn into a bunch of resource for the rest of the warband- turn into another unit type, but keep the same hpand another unit has these evolutions- gain 1 HP and armour, attack deals significant extra damage under some conditions- gain 2 HP, their other ability increases the damage and push distance a bit.
>>97226179>>Why of COURSE my Trench Prophet is still a Proud Blacc Queen, why do you ask?BASED!
>Session 1 of buddy's new campaign>It's clear he hasn't read the rules at all and is totally winging it
>>97231610If someone doesn't have the ability to read the rules on their own then they are not cut out to GM
>>97231712They're just over eager. You don't have to handhold them, just strongly encourage them. It would help if you actually talked to them and told them that you have no interest in nannying them through every session.
>>97231764I've been begging people to read the rules for every game we've ever played for years. It's just a genetic thing I think
>>97230596While actually making the attempt is commendable, I think if you gently open the topic that understanding the rules will be more fun in the long run, hopefully he will listen
>>97230596And yet HE'S actually put together a group, with players, and is out there running the game. That's makes him not only a better gamer than you, but a better human being than you. You should be on your knees thanking him for caring enough to run a game at all, instead of complaining about it online. You can't even muster the balls to bitch to him like a man. Fuck you, kill yourself, and get out. You're too pathetic to even post here.
Holiday EditionDiscuss and post elves. Elf lore, gameplay, and art are all appreciated.QOTT: What are some of the best gifts to give elf-lovers? What gifts would you give to lovers of other races/species/ancestries/whatever?
>>97231768*buttplugs
I think the drink of alcoholic drink of choice for the typical depiction of High Elves, or the more cultured and sophisticated ones. They would drink something with a decent alcoholic content, maybe around 15% alcohol content. Something fruity, not necessarily grapes but sufficiently aged to perfection. Something with an inviting aroma but actually light on fruit flavor so its not like drinking a sugary fruit juice. I can't see High Elves settling on anything less than perfection.
Here's an idea for the human semen cattle fetish in relation to elves in an amazon setting, using hentai settings as a base. What do anons think?>Known as the Fae, Elves, Fairies, Fair Folk, Dryads etc.>Elves are essentially the gardeners and protectors of World Trees, who created them for such purposes>They are only women, but are physically weak, around even with men>Their protection methods involve hidden settlements, traps, glamours and other in-direct defenses>However, once these defenses are bypassed, elves are pretty defenceless against other warrior women, and would often get enslaved>Enslaved elves were used as servants, entertainers, and even sex slaves>Despite not being born sexually, they are capable of sexual reproduction, and would get impregnated by human men>Unlike elves born from World Trees, elves born of an elf are not defenceless, they can take on human women in even combat>These elf born elves would then lead slave revolts, liberating their tree born elves and kidnapping several men to perpetuate themselves>Will regularly raid humans or extract tribute of males, in practical terms because they need to in order to have proper defenders, but also because sex is pretty fun
>>97232622I think that after reading your intro, that one nofap guy was right and people like you shouldn't post in these threads.
>>97231519Gift cards would be a pretty useful gift (or loot) seeing how easier a card is to carry around than tons of coins.

>>97227159rugged geography. Plenty of uninhabitable features on the map carving territories apart.That makes cultures more insular isolated and allows for diverse cultures to prop up. Greece is the third mosr mountainous country in europe. Therefore in the small valleys, nooks and crannies different city states propped up. Macedonia is mostly flat filled with rivers and lakes. So it was a kingdom. You get the gist. The Mesopotamian city states were all found in a fertile region dominated by rivers surrounded by inhospitable environments, so regions were cut up by these rivers and their offshoots and made natural borders for city states developing.

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.PREVIOUS THREAD>>97206318
>>97231105The other responses to this have put in some options. It's a setting and not a system, but Qelong is a setting based on fantasy Cambodia that is currently being fucked up by a war between wizards that is happening adjacent to it. An artifact from their war worked its way there and is causing all sorts of problems. I'll be honest, I don't know how good it is, but it is a source you could look at for some ideas.

What game, in your opinion, has the greatest potential for ruining friendships? What game turns your friends into a bunch of Mr. Hyde assholes that start swinging?
>>97222834Good heavens, whatever for? What would the neighbors think?
>>97221035This game is friendship STRENGTHENING, you dumb fuck. If you are playing with your mate(s), takes to be a fucking retard to go against each other and not against the outsiders. It also takes to be retarded to not have a dedicated "ally" that you can trust with, knowing he won't betray you. Either of you wins, and the other of you will be 2nd, and if neither of you is winning, you can drag down whoever is.This is like TI 101, the bare basics of fucking strategyAnd like many games like this, the backstabber only gets to backstab people once. After that, they are forever fucked, because everyone remembers they aren't trustworthy
Junta.Where you and your friends have to argue over the distribution of stolen foreign aid money, with long interruptions to resolve coup attempts. Great game. Will destroy friendships.
>>97232577My wife, brother in law, and a third accomplice absolutely broke junta. B-i-l and wife hoarded assassin cards, the, the remaining four of us could not gather enough resources to plot a solid coup, they dodged the handful of assassination attempts we were able to draw, and despite their own last minute infighting, they held together long enough (and broke our backs so well) that they couldnt recruit us as end game allies with any real use.Great game though, found it hilarious to open up the rulebook and see the sample names in how assassinations work all match players in my east asian game group (who are all fantastic snakes).They got a kick out of that in the group chat.
>>97222472I know that someone somewhere has made a mario party traditional game
Why is it so common for fantasy rpgs that try to do the "Deep Lore" stuff to always default to Gnosticism or H.P. Lovecraft in a trench coat?
>>97225178Elder Scrolls is kabbalistic and buddhist with a dash of generic paganism mixed up in a Tolkien (ripoff) framework.Elden Ring is gnostic, that's what might be confusing you.
>>97225388Dogs in the Vineyard, obviously.
>>97226239Elden Ring is Hermetic/Alchemical much more than it's Gnostic, although there are traces of that in there as well. Elder Scrolls is absolutely Gnostic with some Buddism mixed in, the hell you're talking about. It doesn't even change the name of some Gnostic concepts it uses
>>97227388Cool. Name them.
>>97208974Gnosticism and mad gods in of themselves are meta and existed since forever. Lovecraft because the classic pulp magazines loved his works and having the unexplorable like Tolkein is a classic way to get people intrigued. Also Gnoticism is early scholar stuff. When you learn more people tend to move away from it.>>97216420That's because we are instantly hardwired to hate those kinds of concepts so the play can keep going.>>97216545To be fair white wolf is all over the place when it comes to god, demons and faith.

>>97228530no u
>>97231114I also unironically love your stuff because anthros + mechs is also my thing
>>97229990I find shotguns tricky as well. Logically, shells full of scattering shot are a much better weapon for attacking NOT armored targets... and mechs ain't that. The shell fires multiple smaller-than-the-shell projectiles, granting either an increased chance to hit or an increased number of hits from a single shot. The tradeoff is less damage and penetration per single projectile. OK.This kind of attack is extremely effective against unarmored being and structures (like wooden doors and apartment walls) while being pretty bad against armor. But- but- ...everyone loves mecha shotguns, naturally! So, what to do?Recommendations offered to me usually amount to "have them do high damage at close range but get wimpy fast as range increases." I feel like that's really reductive. I tend to think of shotshells as having poor penetrating power but being devastating if armor is penetrated.I thhhhhhink the thing to do is to reduce penetration (just by a little bit*) but give a pretty impressive bonus to internal damage or criticals or whatever. Something like that. *Because any reduced penetration at all is pretty unappealing.
>>97232619Good seeing you around Mekton.Glad that I’m on the right track by the sound of it. More confident just seeing that others have the same solution. That bit about damage to armor vs unarmored works naturally with my system just from how damage reduction works.>damage reduction applies to all damage dice that makes up the attack>rifles might deal 2d10 damage while shotguns might do something like 6d4>on a moderately armored target(2 damage reduction) the rifle would do an average of like, 7 damage vs 4>with no damage reduction the rifle deals 11 vs the shotgun’s 15
