>>96455057>a grown man saying "red flags" like some tiktok thotYou're roleplaying a woman irl
>playing a human male Not even memeing here. In 25 years of playing rpgs probably 90% of the problem players I've ever encountered have exclusively played human male characters. Compulsive powergamer? Always human male unless their build specifically requires some racial feat or something, and even then they'll usually try to get the GM to let them have some special snowflake backstory for why their human male can ignore the prerequisite. Any sort of disruptive jackassery justified by but it's what my character would do? Almost always playing a human male. Creepy ERP weirdo? Usually playing a human male. Zero understanding of personal hygiene? Always playing a human male.
Should every aspiring GM read Appendix N?
If the GM wants to understand what AD&D 1e is trying to emulate, then yes.For other systems? Not needed, but it can be a fun experience.
>>96461612I've only read Anderson, Burroughs, Howard, Lovecraft, Morcock, Tolkien, Vance and Zelazny. Half the rest of those I don't even recognize.But sure, anon. Read books. It's good for your brain. And none of this "audiobooks count" bullshit.
I would encourage anyone to read fantasy that isn't Tolkien or Sandersonslop
>>96461612Sure. Reading is always good.
>>96461612No, most of the books on that list are dogshit.

The fall of the Night Lords to Chaos was the greatest loss the Imperium ever suffered. For those who argue that other losses were greater, those losses would not have occurred if the Night Lords remained loyal.
They lost. You're a fag.

>>964619645/8/4? awww shucks. this seems kinda balls
>>96455309The Clans, the Macross colony fleets and the Sidonia are all rival groups who escaped Earth after it got wrecked in the first Human-Zjentlaudi war, while Earth I'd a post-apocalyptic wasteland that's a cross between Gundam X, Xabungle, Eureka 7, Mazinkaiser Skull and maybe some others.
>>96461894they do bankings and shits too, right? interest rate, service charges, intermediary fees for mercs etc plenty of other ways to make money
>>96462004Depending on if it's Macross or Robotech, the zentradi might think the star league is the protoculture (in the original Macross, the titular super dimensional fortress is from a stereotypical progenitor race that the Zentradi are either rebelling against or at war with and its automated systems fire on them when they first show up, leading to them thinking they've finally found "the protoculture" that created them. In Robotech "protoculture" is an energy mcguffin on that ship which they're chasing down for normal resource war reasons). The clans would do little to disabuse them of that notion even if they have absolutely no idea what they're babbling about.

>>96460786I have nothing and I'm starting my first army which is Necrons.
>>96460847then yeah, it sounds like a great purchase for you. especially if you can regift the marines to someone.
my local kill team group is growing. I’m a 40k main game player, bought these boxes for 40k. has anyone played these teams? Any recommendations on which one to start with? Or should I finish out my dire avengers for blades of khaine.
>>96460847We know very little about the box overall. If you're just starting out, the Combat Patrol and/or the KT teams are a good starting point. As a new player, you don't really want or need the terrain as most places you will be playing at will already have terrain and the DW team is not a necron team. It will take a bit for the new stuff to get ported to the codex if you are interested in more than just Kill Team.

Thinking about compatibility between different bodies and such feels like it gets complicated fast. The easy answer is "only let players use standard humban-borg parts if they make it to a gemini body," or something to that effect, which might work, but I'd like the player to be able to upgrade their body piecemeal. They need to be able to customize and create cyborg parts akin to the kind humans use. They may need a techie friend they can trust to install them. Think Johnny 5 gearing himself up.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LABMISLl7Y8Next up, Stability, >Stability loss and gainClaude offered lots of examples, but I fear this may be more taxing than necessary for players to track stability loss/gain.

Do melee weapons require a clear sight too for autohits or once you're in combat, people are aware of the assassin?I do know ambushes count but I'm thinking of:>enter combat by ambush>ally assassin throws smoke grenade to cover main assassin>fight starts>opponent lacks the cyberware to see through smoke or something, misses attack>main assassin moves to behind opponent to further confuse opponent and strikes againNormal hit or autohit? asking for red
>>96457928Smoke applies a penalty on attacks and shots through it, which by definition means you can attack or shoot people in smoke, which also by definition means you can see them even if they're "obscured".They're normal hit beyond the initial ambush, but the target in smoke is going to take a -4 penalty to their evasion because you are obscured by the smoke.As a Ref I would probably allow an automatic hit from your initial attack so long as its being made during the ambush.If you want to hit and run to get another automatic hit I would require you to break line of sight in such a way that there is uncertainty where you are. Ducking behind a wall and then running back the way you came wouldn't be enough.
When doing an FBC, will you become scarier or cuter? Will you swap between bodies like Smasher?
>>96459153> GMAt your discretion, NPCs have what you give em and if it makes sense for the character to have a “on job” and “off job” body then they’d customize it> PlayerGood fucking luck getting even 1 with the economy as it is and the cost to go from meat to metal in time, eddies, and humanity. After that point you’ll probably not have another body but just build out your current one to be amazing. If your frame is too big to hide then just rep it as style. No one will question your machine god chassis, but if by some miracle you manage to scrape enough eddies for another body it would probably be better to use that money elsewhere.If you were given a FBC by a corp or something MAYBE you can get a swap body, but that’s just dressing on your gilded cage

I need clear instructions how to find right people for a specific RPG concept, played online. As of now I can think of two requirements:>must be into the setting or have experience with RPGs>must be in similar timezonePlease write down algorithm for it, including choosing a system.
>>96442596>make friends with people you like>ask them if they want to learn how to play RPGs>have fun with your friends.
>>96456443>make friends with people I like>tell them to get into Blue Archive and hope they want to actually get into it>tell them what an RPG is and hope that they want to play and have time to do so>get stuck on choosing a system
>>96442596ez>Hey guys I'm looking for experienced players, who'd like to play and know setting X, specifically people from timezone Y.
>>96442596Step 1: Go to a place or places where people like Blue Archive. The more people you can reach, the betterStep 2: Ask if any of them are interested in roleplaying together, using "X" RPG systemStep 3: Determine the time zones and availability of those who responded positively in Step 2Step 4: Use WhenIsGood.net or some other method to see when schedules line upStep 5: Prioritize players who seem most experienced, eager, or willing to be team players. De-prioritize players that seem flaky or disruptiveAlso, I don't know anything about Blue Archive besides the "UOHhh!" memes. I expect that may have some effects on your game.
>>96459599Blue Archive is about based anime girls with guns. PCs are intended to be said girls. Age: high school, height: varies from loli to 180cm (tallest canon character).

A lot of stupid fucking faggots have been posting some bullshit about how AI art is "good" and "fine for the hobby". I am here to tell you, no, you are a FAGGOT who will not pour BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS into his game. You know what AI slop is? You coveting the ability of others and compensating by using tools. You are a fool with an automatic drill acting greater than a true carpenter. Continue down your path. One day you will awaken and see yourself in a pit of disingenuous tar. An inescapable muck that you have built into your home, a fitting place for a wretch unwilling to unabashedly display their love for their fellow players in any form. Anyway, post art from your campaigns. I need to update this, but its mostly my current party. Goblin and the orc died during the end of the last dungeon.
I, as a DM make extensive use of AI to generate: NPC, monsters, mooks, generals and bosses.My players love it.
>>96459616>Asked to do what they hatedthis is like a shit artist take.like if you're looking for work, you shouldn't turn down something so broad.>>96455318This is also not really an argument but moralizing.what's the functional cost between me using an image from my character art folder (something we have right now) and using AI?that a human hand made it?no money is passing hands between me and the artist.AI Is a tool, like automation, it raises the skill floor we expect from artists as a result the lower skilled artists get crushed and these tend to be the people who rage most vehemently against it.I would still prefer imagines made with intention, and the foibles of man but that doesn't mean turning into DR Ted because some faggot used AI Elf titties in his DND game.
>>96461106TL;DR We get it, you enjoy ai slop, but trying to frame this as a "muh progress" narrative doesn't make it any less slop
Not since the NPC meme has there been a more telling litmus test. Many, many people on this earth have no soul.
>Warcraft fan getting rectally ravaged about AI SlopThis is like Kurt Cobain trying to have a seminar about not doing drugs, not anheroing, and not putting your wing wong in crazy.>>96453307Fippy Bippy!

>>964612411v1 me. If you win, you're ready for locals. If you lose, you have to start over your training.
>>96461241Most Abbadomon decks I've seen run like 12-14 Scatter Modes, the full playsets of SoundBirdmon and Eyesmon, and some Trainings/Memory Boosts. Armageddemon hasn't seen play anywhere in years so I'm baffled as to why you included it. I don't like Zenith or Cyberdramon either. You can run some other level 6 Aces since Black pretty much has the best selection of them, but Darkdramon is fine if that's all you want to play. If you do run more I suggest Laplace's Demon and/or EX5 Etemon.
>>96460322How the fuck
>>96461566>Armageddemon hasn't seen play anywhere in yearsIdk why you’d run it in anything that’s not diaboromon but it does completely cuck Omnimon.
>>96461832That's exactly why I'm running it>>96461566I'm choosing to reduce the soundbirds bc is only good starting first and giving 1 mem and I can miss the armagedemon, I rather discard and search, and since I'm playing againts royalniggers eyesmon feels useless, and other black aces don't destroy like darkdramon does itAlso I don't know other setters that trashes

How many CYOA authors are using AI art these days? It seems like it's harder and harder to search for art that isn't AI in the first place, so, you might as well make your own, right?
>>96459700>As you can see, all of these WAIFUSYou fucking cuck, don't ever reply to my post again
>>96460221You can use AI art to make no cyoa no problem, BUT, generating is often as long as searching for right pics and often more annoying. Stealing is still faster, though you steal AI sometimes.
