Obviously running mass land destruction with randoms would be a stupid idea, but are a handful of single target land destruction effects too salty for LGS pods?
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?
>>97216420Simulation theory was implied in both Star Ocean 1 and 2. The problem with 3 was that they tried to turn it into a mid-game twist and that made a mess of the game's story.
>>97214013>Plants are what is wrong with everything in the world. We must return to Photosynthesis.
Familiarity is important.
Gnosticism is just true!IAM!
>>97209182White Wolf's games are heavily rooted in Christian mythology and Gnosticism is basically Christianity/Judaism deep lore, so it really should come as no surprise here. But yeah, sure, I get what you're saying, seen plenty of it as well. I think it's largely because the core themes of Gnosticism are>reality isn't exactly what it appears to be >god(s) are lying to youWhile the core them of HPL is >there are forces/entities/civilisations out there that operate on an entirely different level we can barely comprehendAnd those really are kind of the most obvious angles if you're trying to write some major, plot-twist "deep lore" for your setting Another reason I see is there's probably a pretty big correlation between people who are into the concept of deep lore (and thus want to include it in their setting) and people who are into /x/ stuff (and thus are probably aware of Gnostic stuff and think it's some extra cool secret knowledge they'll be extremely original for ripping off)
Previous thread: >>97111514GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: How often do you use an official GURPS setting? Which are your favorites?
>>97222128Isn't rpm kinda slow for how hp uses magic?
>>97222128Harry Potter is just standard Magic where magery has a gadget limitation for wands.
>>97222145True. I mentioned it because it was the first 'manaless' system that came to mind.>>97222175The spellcasting speed is about right, as well as the piecemeal nature of spells, but wizards doesn't seem limited by FP/EP and learning individual spells seems very easy, children learned Wingardium Leviosa in a single class.
>>97222175>>97222185Also Wizards can cast spells without wand, it's just easier to do so.Under standard magic system, I guess wands could be several levels of gadget Magery. Having it increases skill levels with all spells by a large margin, so even dabblers can cast spells but to do so without it a wizard needs to study the spell a lot.I guess it could explain why not even very talented mages like Dumbledore and Voldemort bothers with wandless magic.
>>97222185>>97222192Frankly, your biggest problem is that Harry Potter is absolute garbage.
How do we fix Steampunk?
>>97221835Tradition is by definition a living thing. It is cultural continuation, the passing down of cultural elements from one generation to the next. If such continuation doesn't exists anymore then we are not talking about tradition. We are talking about history.
>>97217321>go pray to Harry Potter, plebbitI pray to Odin. The true god-wizard.
>>97196423>>97196434Whereas cyberpunk was an aesthetic but also a social commentary on unrestrained hedonism/corporate greed and the consequences thereof, steampunk is just an aesthetic, which is why it's so hollow and why it mostly appeals to cosplayers. There's no substance so it's nebulous and vague, which makes it easier to get into but less poignant.>tl;dr it's shallow
>>97221874>steampunk is just an aestheticSteam punk deals with themes of rapid industrialization, colonialism, Victorian class structures, the impact of anachronistic advanced technologies, such as the "difference engine" would have on the world at large. Steam punk isn't just cyberpunk with brass googles it's a genre of alternative history, a fact people sadly forget.
>>97221866lol. lmao, even>saar im from pure Aryan stock, saar, I worship the white gods of the north saaar>>97221835>What are you on about? Do you also believe that if culture is forgotten then it isn't a culture?

The only way Battle Armor can move underwater is with UMUs, right?
>>97221711They can move under water just fine.Just not fast, so they count as out of the game for the couple minutes a combat encounter lasts.
>>97221247Eisensturm is a flying Atlas with dual gauss rilfes.Though I think FWL's Shiva is pretty good as well. It also has a dual gauss configuration but on top of that also has a pulse laser one that absolutely shreds units when making ground attacks (remember that ASFs attacking ground units always count as attacking from short range, so you always get the -2 from pulses). It does have far less armor than the Eisensturm, but you get 3 Shivas at the BV of 2 Eisensturms, and regardless of the armor tye Eisensturm still gets one-shotted by an unlucky lawdart roll.
>>97220893Strider you are overlooking that it is frankly insanely cheap and a bit of a zombie in the grand scheme of things thanks to C.A.S.E. and a standard engine. If you treat it like an IFV meant to transport and support BA then it does have moments to shine.Owens yeah no idea what they were thinking. Its basically scout competing with a bunch of excellent scout options and even using one as a spotter feels like an expensive waste?
>>97221708>Movement Restrictions: Whether or not the battle armor is equipped with magnetic clamps, no vehicle may expend UMU, VTOL, WiGE or Jumping MP while carrying mechanized battle armor, and no ’Mech may expend UMU MP.This specifically calls out *vehicles* in a separate clause of the sentence from>no ’Mech may expend UMU MPGiven that it the only Mech restriction it lists is UMU, and it specifically calls out UMU, VTOL, WiGE and Jump for *vehicles* (and yes I know there is at least one tank with Jump Jets) I would say this is pretty clearly a vehicle-mostly restriction that eventually got changed in this text >>97221567 to remove the UMU restriction for Mechs, making it a vehicle-only restriction.Also if you go load it up in MegaMek you can still jump with an omni loaded with elementals and can't jump with a Kanga Medium Hovertank with IS Standards, so it's not just me reading it wrong.

>>97220409I think Japan updated to the bullet points and the like at least a few years after PSCT was devised.
>>97218919I think TCGrepublic sells sealed OCG stuff too. I've only bought singles from them and never looked for sealed so take this word with a grain of salt.
Best archetype to mix with Cubics?
I think hitting Ash is retarded and the Mulcharmy cards shouldn't exist
>>97222404Probably. I wouldn't expect see that Ash semi sticking, maybe a year or so before it goes back up to 3.The charmies I still don't know where I am on them because they're more balanced but I still don't think they're good for the game. I don't that this avenue is a good method of fixing the going 2nd problem. It feels like a bandaid solution to avoid making a revision to the rules.

>>97221896>>another weekend where we all miss every attack and the DM never misses, then obviously fudges numbers to keep up aliveI’m a bit torn on that issue. On one hand, it would really suck to die in the middle of a game after two hours of play, especially without a backup character. On the other hand, I admit it takes away some of the tension knowing that the GM will go to great lengths to prevent you from dying.

>>97222205You sound like you should be playing Draw Steel instead of D&D
https://www.thepopverse.com/gaming-critical-role-ttrpg-board-and-beyond-dungeons-dragons-iraq-redditCritical Role and Reddit single-handedly sparked an entire country's interest in RPGs. They had never had any exposure to tabletop before seeing Critical Role.Can you say the same?
>>97207272Colorful girl sexy
>>97201179>unironically he is too good of a DM to do something this retarded.He will do things you think is retarded because he is a good gm, and you are not.
>>97199446More people got into D&D because of Stranger Things and the covid lockdown than because of Shitical Role. The overwhelming majority of their fans don't play a single fucking thing, but buy shit anyways, reinforcing and lengthening a dark age where brainless consumerism drives profits more than genuine engagement, and the damage that has done will be felt for another decade or more if things don't change soon.

>>97218889Duh. Why would anyone watch a DnD show that requires at least some modicum of prerequisite knowledge to get into versus some Netflix hit that also happened to have DnD in it?2nd part: you act as if WotC has any sort of devotion to the arts versus making their daddy, Hasbro, any money. Once thing gets corporatized, they die.
Ok real talk. Do you think design choices like this were what ultimately killed AoS? Or were there other factors at play?
>>97199348>replace "flesh and steel" with "insecurity and self-loathing"Iunno, tranners tend to be pumped full of enough plastic and silicone to be at least as artificial as the average tech-adept
>>97170039wtf he's still around?
>>97222286something something as war rages it nulls the sexuality in the individual. something something individualism is further and further less the vocal point as society ramps up its technology and abandons humanity or something along the way, or maybe humanity advances with such technology with it that they have no need for their sexual identity or something something.I dont know man, I dont really give much a shit about it, but its an echo usually in most mediums in sci-fi. For 40k specific im sure theres some of it for eldar even before the supposed pozzing of the setting before 8th edition, never-mind admech.
>>97217497>AIDS of smegma, being the confluence of Chinese gatcha games and world of warcraftAs >>97222118 points out, this is how we know you don't know what you're talking about. Get better talking points, it's not 2013 anymore.And before you even say it, yes. There's a ton of trash in gacha. Some might even say the "good" games are trash. But Gacha still has gems, or even simply designs that make you feel something. That's the tragedy. Gacha might be a painted-up whore with huge fake tits, but that's a hell of a lot better than what the West is offering.
>>97222423>something something as war rages it nulls the sexuality in the individualThat's completely wrong, you absolute retard. People reproduce MORE in times of strife and duress, plenty of soldiers experience "battle boners" due to surges of adrenaline, and the battlefield itself is a hotbed of rape of enemy civilians and combatants alike.

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.
>>97221968A group of dudebro larpers on twitter or whatever, who were mildly comical in that they claimed to be playing AD&D 1e more raw than anybody, but got things wrong. Largely irrelevant and mostly gone now. They're also one of fishfag's many scapegoats for everything he doesn't like.
>>97221984They must use this place too lol, everytime I see anything OSR getting discussed there are retarded losers who don't know how to read the rules spouting off about how they're sanctified and beyond reproach.
>>97220767It's been more than 20 years since I've played 2e, so I had to doublecheck it but yeah, none of these are "strict", "core" or "non-optional" rulesThe entire section starts with an opening saying it lists guidelines not strict rules, and that there isn't one way that works for all, you should take what works for your tableand also these guidelines are fine and they will most certainly work
>>97207544did "I wouldnt touch that with a 40ft pole!" originate in D&D?

Dedicated Drizzt Do'Urden EditionDiscuss and post elves. Elf lore, gameplay, and art are all appreciated.QOTT: What drove you to elves specifically?
>>97221475It's a worthwhile sacrifice
>>97163705Meanwhile the pseud who wrote this wall of garbage nobody reads and the fags that screen cap/post it look like this irl
>>97200255Depends what your definition of prude means, but the ideal elven characterization when it comes to their sensuality is that: elves understand and readily accept they are the most physically attractive race and they take pride in their beauty. Flowers, sunsets, and rainbows don't hide themselves away behind layers and neither do elves - but elves also aren't rampant exhibitionists since they aren't whores and won't show just anyone the goods. Light elves would wear form fitting and thin clothes that show off a lot of skin but ultimately would leave everything but the curves up to the viewer's imagination. Dark elves would show more skin but they too would keep covered up since they're not common street walkers to be oogled at by their lessers. IRL examples would be women who wear yoga pants and tank tops to the gym (light elves) vs women who wear spandex shorts and sports bras (dark elves). You basically already know what their bodies look like but there's enough left covered up.
>>97217575No but its common in fantasyslop that there is no real difference between fantasy races beyond superficial features. Unfortunately 99.99% of post-1991 fantasy is fantasyslop including whatever garbage you're consuming.
>>97221880>they're not common street walkers to be oogled at by their lessers.

Ordered the Void 2.0 box set on Friday. Anyone else picked up any Void from Seb Games?I remember back in the day the Viridian plastics were super handy for conversions (I still have some Viridian rifles in my bits box) but never actually played a game or put together an army.
Ever had to say fuck it this is above our paygrade, and just bail from a dungeon?I get that GM probably put some amount of effort into preparing it and skipping the place would put that to waste, but when the very first encounter makes it painfully obvious pushing on would be suicidal, nobody can really blame the party for doing literally anything else, right?
