Elves should be rare, mysterious, superstitious. They should take time to use and be exhausting to hunt.

Happy New Year’s Eve and Calibration Edition!

>What is Exalted?
An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.
Start here:http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/

>That sounds cool, how can I get into it?
Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial:http://mengtzu.github.io/exalted/sakuya.html
It’ll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

>Gosh that was fun. How do I find a group?

>>97273999
Just play a rogue Sidereal, but you really want one, use Sidereals as a base, change their unique way a bit and turn them into attribute based.
I recommend that Getimians can only use their unique way with stunts involving their origins.
>>
>>97274177
Oh, forgot to mention, it is irrelevant in 3e/Essence, but each Getimian caste is tied to one of 1e/2e's virtues.
Maybe you can play with QE's a bit.

And within a fantastical reality, it can have things that are natural to itself and unnatural to itself, because fantasy is the faculty or activity of imagining things, especially things that are impossible or improbable.
It isn't possible for things to be unnatural or supernatural IN OUR WORLD, but in A FANTASY WORLD, where there CAN BE IMPOSSIBLE THINGS, it is possible for things to be unnatural or supernatural.

It doesn't matter what the history of our world says.
It doesn't matter what religion of our world says.

It's fucking fantasy. You don't need to apply real world logic to it.

What are some of your experiences with BRP or mythras? Favorite stories, characters, or supplements?

I generally like running pulp or horror campaigns. Funniest story setup was how my players thwarted a small series of adventures I planned before it even started.
>Players role up an old priest, a journalist, and basically fred from scooby doo.
>Investigating a series of murders and disappearances.
>Get captured thesmelves and wind up in a rundown factory converted to sort of look likea victorian mansion.
>Meet an obvious vampire who uses them for basic company and conversation before planning to kill them.
>My players escape, the frail priest manages to full nelson the vampire, and the other players manage to use a stake to kill him.

It ended what I planned to be a multi session adventure in one night. It was a lot of lucky roles and ended up with being funny.

Cons:
>Requires system mastery to flow correctly. Especially combat.
>Combat maneuvers become a bit solved with pcs always choosing the target location special ability to dog pile damage and incapacitate an enemy. (i have had to homebrew around that)
>Focus on simulationism even more than other d100 games might feel overly constraining.
>it is more of a toolkit system as far as magic is concerned especially.
>piles a lot on the gm to get it running properly.
>character creation is kinda flawed and deigned towards making you mediocre at 5-10 things.
Generally a lot of constrains when creating characters feels like an over correction more than anything.
>Combat style is inherently superior to other combat skills like evade, endurance and willpower which are your resistances
>action point system is kinda gamey and hardlocks you a little bit into mostly defending if numerically disadvantaged
>lack of gm advice and procedures for dungeoncrawling, hexploration, sandbox play even if it was large part of the oldschool d100
systems with settings like griffin island, especially considering that all the tools for such a style of play are there and the d100 is probably the only other game that can do that as well as the osr

>>97269950
This covers a good chunk of the cons. They did try to fix some of the issues with the target location thing by making that counter combat maneuver, but that implies a success getting used for that just to negate an issue. Make it really punishing if it happens.

I would disagree and say armor can actually be a little too strong in mythras at times in the hands of the players.
>>
The more I play, the more I really want someone to do an egyptian or greek campaign guide. I am surprised that neither chaosium or the design mechanism has done it yet. Chaosium would probably fuck it up to be honest, but their vikings book and the last creatures book were actually decent so who knows.

Jackals is pretty good. I own it as well, but I kind of like the presentation of an alternate historical fantasy. I like seeing what kind of tweeks the writers do to historical events in terms of how the fantasy elements affect them.

To be fair cloning Christ and then harvesting his blood and maybe organs is kind of fucked up, though the lore implies it was under the sponsorship of God himself and otherwise Humanity would have died a long time ago. The setting itself is fucked up, but the guys with crosses objectively are trying to just survive and aren't cruel for the sake of being cruel.

Christmas edition

▶What is Kingdom Death?
Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.

▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?
Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.

Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0Ac

The Game is broken up into 3 phases:
1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.
2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.
3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.

Not an answer people here might like but try the facebook group or the unofficial discord.
>>
>>97269313
Our group loves to mix and match their own survivors to paint with the entirity of core, gce, and almost all the expansion survivor bits. We always start with the founding survivor minis and then move to our 'actual' survivors once we gear up a bit (currently all using 10 uear survivors, but i got the 15 year box im waiting to give out as Xmas gifts our next game). Though if I do black knight, I should probably do the squiers.
Speaking of: is the 5 year campaign as difficult as they say? I kind of want to do all the knights for lore purposes but ny group is still pretty new to the game (only a couple core campaigns with expansions sprinkled in).
>>
>>97272992
How do you know you're ready? I usually replace hunting level 1s with twos once I have dash and surge, and have at least one survivor with 5 armor all around and a shield, but I don't know the right metric for the level 3s other than "ran out of stuff to make"

You mean the very successful thing that both hobbiest (loads-a money) and boardgame enthusiasts (also fucking loads-a money)? I always wondered what the thought process was behind the philosophy of
>boy I i fucking love this product!
>I sincerely hope they stop focusing on it and make somthing close to it but different in every way as well
Just give me more of whats good and not what we hope is good. You could do so much with the fights and events in monster that I can see the vision in releasing a decade of projects.
>>
>>97272155
The unofficial discord has a good channel I usually get all of my expansion content from for decent prices. Pretty much only missing 2 expansions now while getting all the others at least 40% off. Some were still in plastic. One I wasn't looking forward to painting actually had a decent paint job on the monster and survivors for $40 total including all content and shipping. Problem is its pretty typical discord shit on everything else.

You know that feeling you get when you squat over the toilet and put your hand under your asshole and just relax so that your goopy sludge runs soft, filling your palm like soft-serve ice cream?

Only because some people get anal over what is or isn't a murderhobo, since some extend that to every adventurer or player character that isn't explicitly working for a government.
>>
>>97273892
It's usually because everyone else at the group (likely including the GM) didn't want you to kill that character, whereas Miyazaki is completely indifferent to how you play his video game. You already bought it.
