>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.

You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I also feel bad for those guys.

Yeah so looking at this list Rockerboy is pretty useless until level 6 and even then you only get an 80%-40% chance NPCs will do something meaningful for you. Compare this to an Exec who at rank 6 will have two useful NPCs work for them permanently doing whatever they say along with everything else the Exec gets by that point.

There's no description of what fans are actually like, what their stats are, what they can realistically achieve. Again it puts onus on the GM to figure it out, which can lead to Rockerboy being either really good or really useless depending on how these rules are interpreted and implemented.

>If you can't see how to use that there's no point in me bringing up how ludicrous is to walk up to 6 dudes and say "hey, I want you to go rough up some cops" and have them go "rock on dude" and do it sometimes without question.

Yeah so I can convince a bunch of retards to go get shot. For what reason? Are they going to be capable of actually downing the Cops? Are my fans not just civillians with little training?

Also anything the Rockerboy can achieve through Charismatic Impact could be solved with other skill checks. In my experience players aren't sure how to actually use Charismatic Impact and use it as a catch all social check. Like you could probably just give Rockerboy's a bonus to a few social skills instead of Charismatic Impact and you wouldn't lose too much utility. They're nothing in the rules to say you can't convince a group of people into suicidal fervor with a high enough Persuasion check.

Is there any in-lore explanation of how the hovercars and airships work? Also we know that as of 2077 only the ultra rich can afford flying cars, but an airship would be like a hundred flying cars. Who's footing the bill for that?

>>97235035
>They're nothing in the rules to say you can't convince a group of people into suicidal fervor with a high enough Persuasion check.
That's how the difference between social skills and Charismatic Impact played out in my playgroup. Persuasion can't make an NPC do a suicidal charge, but Rockerboy's fan(atic)s are devout/crazy/stupid to do so.
>>
>>97235035
I don't think you're respecting the applicability of Charismatic impact. The effective application is an "automatic success layer" for social checks.

At rank 4, as I mentioned, you can meet a stranger and 36% of the time they'll do you something at no cost to you. If that fails, you can't CI them to do the same thing, but you can always persuade or bribe them if it doesn't work. Nothing about CI prevents you from making social checks afterwards; though intimidating them or using force to coerce them will almost certainly make them no longer fans

This applies to EVERY STRANGER YOU MEET THAT YOU CAN MEANINGFULLY INTERACT WITH.

If you can't figure out how to use that, you should probably play a different role.

I refuse to believe Halo Flashpoint is even a 10th as successful as Mantic claims. In terms of online, easy to find metrics it has:

3100 people as part of its sub(P)reddit.
2100 or so people as part of Facebook Groups.
No one discussing it on Twitter gets many likes/comments/retweets.
No one big or well known talks about/plays it on Youtube.

Yet it's one of the fastest growing and more popular tabletop games to come out recently?
I don't buy it.
I don't hate the system, but I am baffled by Mantic's ability to get away with lying about how successful this game is.

>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 not
TC 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.

Argos has historically been a word defined and used by the Church to mean laziness, slow, and idleness in duties you should perform for God (worship, charity, etc). So the City of Argos can be translated as "(Performing) No Good for God" in Christian context. Maybe it succumb to Sloth worship in some manner and was wiped out for it? They must've posed a unique threat for God to have taken action personally, something potentially that violated his plan.

>>97227812
I realize it does come off kind of stream of conscious. To summarize here, in recruiting a church member you intend on being a Cleric, the only real choice is a priest. If you're aiming for someone of a higher rank, it should either be under a dire situation or like an end of campaign recruitment.
On the other hand, the friar classes should be for church members that are not using traditional holy magic, so like a church assassin in a particularly edgy church or a church-aligned fighter or monk.

New Jersey anon, thank you very much for your thoughtful and coomerful gift. The tea is delightful. Although, I do not know how I will be able to paint up all those tiny goblins. SO many and so tiny except their tits which are enormous.

How would you write interesting gods, well in this case, false gods who took the mantle after the true god left/died/vanished (Anyone who played dominions, you can probably see where this is going)

Mages, ancient kings or monsters that have found the means to become a god through magic or other means, some are fine or harmless as they only worship in own little village like a mini cult leader, some maybe even benevolent but most half gone mad or just out right evil (as in cursing entire regions because they felt it was amusing or out of the most pettiest of reasons)

So it up for regular joes set off on a impossible quest to slay them, it going to be set in a ancient world so mainly bronze and some iron and rarely steel and cultures being early ancient rome, celts, norse and maybe even some egyptian if things go well. I'm still working on a map mind you lot

But my goal is gods right now, any suggestions or tips, crazier and more bullshitty the better these aren't just 'oh god of thunder that all he does is thunder' I got these little ideas in mind rn that I can't explain but it for a rough example it's type that would throw a spear across a continent and striking you in the chest and curse your whole bloodline for even mentioning you hate him type of god

Any tips on worldbuilding through solo RP?
>>
>>97235295

Worldbuilding is a bottomless well. The more you worldbuild, the more you realise how shallow most settings really are. The more you worldbuild, the more you realise that it is a never-ending endeavour because you can always add just one extra detail. This is especially true if you research real cultures, language, and history. Also a warning: have some restraint. It is very easy to begin a never-ending worldbuilding spiral. It feels like work, it is work, but it might serve no purpose.

Practice the Iceberg Theory: You should know 90% of the world, but only 10% should ever appear on actual RP. The 90% exists only to give the 10% weight. If you find yourself researching the crop rotation cycles of a province your protagonist will never visit, you’ve likely crossed into the bottom of the iceberg.

When you look at real-world history, you realize that nothing exists in a vacuum. A simple choice—like a character eating a bowl of spicy noodles—is actually a web of complexity from agriculture, trade routs, culture, linguistics, sociology, science, history.

The very words you use have a backstory.

When you use a word like Duke (or Duque), you aren't just using a synonym for "leader"; you are dragging 2,000 years of Roman military history (dux), Latin evolution, and Carolingian feudalism into your fictional world. If your world doesn't have a "Rome," how can it have a "Duke"?

You either have to accept that you are translating the story to a modern audience (very easy and common and even recommended solution), made up a backstory for why Dukes coincidentally are called as such in-universe, or invent a whole new title.

Once you see these, you can never un-see them and they are EVERYWHERE. Here are a few words that often "break" worldbuilding if you're being strictly logical and don't use "translation" as a device:

Draconic law: Named after an Athenian Greek law reformer.

unless you want to go down the route of deriving words for all of these things/concepts then accepting them as translations for things is far easier

I don't like the rarity, it has a weird engraving and you can't see the art through a sleeve, just as you said, plus they're thief magnets if your lgs is in a shitty part of town (read: all of jew york).

This is why i prefer prismatic secret rares, they look better than normal secrets AND they tend to be cheaper and/or looked down upon because they're "reprint" rarities ie for poorfags, so jamal/pablo won't culturally enrich them.

I bought a box of Crossover Breakers, a Dragon Shield plastic deckbox and a bunch of sleeves, with the intention of playing either Maliss or Ryzeal and ended up playing neither of those decks.

>TCaC
There's more than a few of these monsters with odd ATK/DEF stats and I'm fairly positive that Konami can retrain these into a control archetype that does stat manipulation OR getting rid of monsters that don't share their weird stats.
They'd fit in perfectly with the Illusion typing but I'm afraid that they'd just get piled with Chimera and Hecahands into an Illusion Fusion Slop deck.

>>97236634
In a DARK possessed Joey deck that retypes most of the monsters as DARK Pyros (e.g Rocket Destroyer, Gearfried the Searing Knight) or DARK Beast-Warriors (E.G SwordImp of Landstar and Sharkman Fisherman) what type should the evil Gilford be? Physical changes are allowed for the theme. Should he go with the main 2? Have a new type to make him standout as an evil boss? Or should he just be dark warrior? My front runners are Pyro, Zombie, Thunder, and Fiend.

>TCaC: Take any normal fusion/ritual monster and base a new archetype around it.
Guardian Crab Turtle
>[Level 8/Aqua/WATER/Ritual]
>[ATK 2850/DEF 3500]
You can Ritual Summon this card with any "Turtle" Ritual Spell. If this card is Ritual Summoned: You can add 2 cards that mention "Crab Turtle" from your Deck or GY to your hand. Apply the following effect, based on this card's battle position.
● Attack Position: When this card or a monster adjacent to it battles an opponent's monster, inflict piercing battle damage
● Defense Position: This card, and any adjacent monsters to it, are unaffected by your opponent's card effects.

>What is /awg/?
A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks, or peoples' homebrew wargames.
The >>>/tg/hwg thread doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to more specific games.
This thread isn't tied to a game, a publisher, or a genre, let's just talk about fun wargames. Any scale, any company, any miniatures.

>Examples of games that qualify.
A Song of Ice and Fire, Argatoria, Batman Miniature Game, Carnevale, Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings,
Deadzone, Dragon Rampant, Dropfleet and Dropzone Commander, Freebooter's Fate, Frostgrave, Gaslands, HeroClix,
Kings of War, Maelstrom's Edge, Malifaux, Marvel Crisis Protocol, Masters of the Universe: Battleground, Moonstone,
Oathmark, OnePageRules, Open Combat, RelicBlade, Rumbleslam, SAGA, StarCraft, Stargrave, Sludge, Urban War, Void,
Warcaster, Warmachine, Xenos Rampant, Xenotactics...
...and anything else that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread.

>why bother with 1000 cannons if you can just field 1000 wizards?
If the logistics happened in a vacuum this would be a functional question but we don't really have that at the same time as not having an actual setting, its just everyone's likely different ideas about how common wizards are.
Yes, in a perfect world the army I like would have all the things I want when I want them. Doesn't seem like an interesting game though.
I've considered trying to take the perry brother's napoleonic battle in a box and add a few fantastical elements, I think more towards the idea of magic as subterfuge and support oriented warfare. Keeps it involved but mangeable and from being overwhelming or turning into herohammer except everyone has tall hats.
A system of cards with battlefield altering abilities that are interesting but don't make things too swingy or radically undermine the interesting aspects of early manoeuvre warffare.

I vague recall an interview with Northstar employees where one says "when in doubt, release some cultists", so yeah they sell quiet well.

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on Rumbleslam for a laugh, are Ronnie Salvage and Porcelynn good additions to fill out the starter set? Obviously balance isn't the biggest deal for this game, but I don't want it to be wildly one sided if one of them turns out to be meta.
