>>96531953Nice.During the The Greater Good's work.
>>96533321If they're acting contrary to what is normally their patron god's nature, it is to further a plan for even greater purpose later. Yes, that includes khorne, he can actually plan.
>>96533706No. You don't even get hand-holding, because fuck you I guess.
>>96534817Except for cases like Skarbrand, but that still involved a different chaos god planning around it and it being part of the great deceiver's deception.
>>96535637Ignore me, I'm retarded and thought you meant contrary to the god's wishes, not their nature, and that was about daemon princes not daemons.
5e < PF1 < 3.5e < PF2Shrimple as that.
>>96506828>only 4eI love how 4rries cannot help give themselves away while they are trying to gaslight you about what 3e can and cannot do
>>96524846>These days I prefer 13th age nearly removing skills. Skills were always a vestigal system meant to compete with glorantha's variants over time. Outside of trapfinding I think fantasy games run better with participative skill encounters and implicit class skill lists.You can always counting on the 13th age fag to have the most dogshit opinion that would eclipse an OSR cultist
>>96534710those game mechanics predate 5e and my 6 month year old son will beat up your third grader with a gurisame . you cannot advance.
>>965349492e is good beacuse of the depth of the different settings it offered. I find the rules to be pretty mid, though the metagame was healthier than later editions and that is worth a great deal. >>96535007Skill list are retarded 90% of the time. 3/4/5e type games have one players Autosolve the encounter most of the time, or feel terrible when they roll a 3 and someone who just dipped the ability rolls a 20. Without pedantic skill lists you get far more players engaging with a social encounter or dungeon room and I get to reward and punish my players appropriately for nonlinear thinking or general idiocy . I often finding myself saying 'you need to pick a lock give me int or dex' instead of ' who has trapfinding?'
>>96534947It didn't say it was bad, I said it is one of the traits of 5E D&D that the FFXIV RPG kept as it evolved out of a 5E setting hack into something a little more of its own thing.>>96535090You're retarded.

>>96535438Imagine hating this>a kid goes into a game store. Let’s just call him… 'Timmy.' Now, Timmy doesn’t have a lot of money. So, he buys one pack of Tempest. He rips it open and starts tearing through the cards to find the rare. And then he sees it. It’s a big green creature. Seven power. Seven toughness. It’s huge. Huge! He’s eyes keep moving. He glances up at the casting cost: 5 ManaGreen ManaGreen ManaGreen Mana, blah, blah, blah. Boring. Move on. Timmy looks at the rules text. There’s a bunch of words. Timmy reads. Every turn Timmy gets another creature. Another entire creature. It’s small, but in ten turns, he’ll have twenty creatures. A 7/7 creature with twenty 1/1s. How does his opponent stop that? It can’t be stopped! Timmy finally exhales. He has found the Holy Grail.”

>>96535564I wouldn't call getting a perfect score in art or literature, and then average scores everywhere else the best grades overall. It could be a tie breaker between two otherwise super smart builds, I guess?

>>96520987But anon, vampires are all about mundane characters thrown in with a disturbing sexual "stranger".This is way they are almost (AH!) dead to us now. We generally accept every kind of sexuality, or at least people that actually read books are.Let the Right One In is a good example, having to resort to irksome kiddy matters or even paedophilia, that are the big execptions.That being said I didn't read this one, so I can't make a comparision.
>>96499601Why do all of them look like skinwalkers.
CoC 7eOne of my players just rolled a character with 25 sanity.Which creates a situation where their temp and indef sanity threshold is the same.How is that best handled? Trigger temp and indef at the same time?
>>96505853>But it's not available yet.>Kind of a shit moveThank you chaosium, very cool.Also skimming it, what's up with having the main characters be in a manga-ish style and having the other half (and pregen PCs) use realistic portraits?
>>96533602Each chapter has a different art style depending on what the current version the sutra is being presented as. The first chapter is in the version of a direct translation of ancient japanese into modern day parlance, so it has the classical illustration Tale of Genji style.The second one is about a manga adaptation so it turns into that styleThe third ones a little weird, it sort of looks like Patrick Nagel? I guess that's because it's infiltrating the club and yakuza scene through extensive body tattoos. Either way it's not a terrible design decision, kind of fun.

Trench Crusade General - /trench/Weird love 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 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. >How do I get started? All the files are free online, but are split between the website and the discord.

>>96535040Responding to myself because I don't think I was clear: the attack just has a -1 dice modifier because you are downed. E.g. if you attack with a downed model that has +2 dice in melee, it would fight at +1 dice while downed.
i have not interacted with anything trench crusade related since the beginning of the year, but i have have read that the IP and the new lore has been infested with insufferable lefties. This is the only place i can ask, how truth is that ?
>>96535213>muh leeeftiiists!>btw guys I dont really interact with the thing but muh leeeftiiists!Fuck off you goddamn culture war nigger. If you are only gonna interact with it because you felt some culture war calling you can turn around and go back to whatever shitpit of beelzebub you came from.
What is the point of the warwolf being artificial? The keywoard doesnt come with inherent benefits or drawbacks according to the keyword section. The witch, lions and bulls also have artificial in their abilities (artificial life/body) which causes different effect and the lion and bull arent even subject to the artificial keyword (which doesnt do anything anyway?). Seems like something that needs cleaning up.
>>96535608Tuomas can add things later that impacts Artificial creatures. Alternately you can come up with some stuff to make it into a real keyword for flavor. Maybe certain objectives that require not being artificial too capture etc.

>>96535424I don't know but I miss them.
>>96533538The trigger type that affects you is based on Harmony. So for the moon trigger set you've got the Specific trigger of the scene being in moonlight. The Common trigger of seeing your auspice moon. Then the Passive trigger of your auspice moon being in the sky.At 5 Harmony none of these matters but the further you drift the more you get. So at 3-4 and 6-7 the Specific one is the only one you need to deal with. At 1-2 and 8-9 you add in the Common trigger too. Then at 0 or 10 you add in the Passive. You only need to take extreme steps to avoid it if you're off the deep end already. Kuruth isn't a guaranteed thing either and it's also fairly useful as a tool too.
>>96535162Thanks! It's set in Victorian England and I'm planning on playing a Farwalker Ogre of the Autumn Court. He's a working class cockney bloke, served as an attack dog for his keeper before his escape, now he prowls the east end for criminals to terrorize, because he knows the posh cunts would just fuck things up if they tried to handle it their way. >>96535401It's also an illness that afflicts oWoD.
>>96535293>but physical changes can'tPfft. You don't even know what you're supposed to smell like.
>>96535533>It's also an illness that afflicts oWoD.Not nearly to the same degree, I'd argue.
These are the most hit or miss aspect of my games. How do you run them? How do you deal with misseable clues and dumb player derailments?
>>96525384GURPS really does work well as background material for other systems.
>>96512895>you aren't writing a novel>railroad a bad ending if players don't follow your plotSo which one it is?
>>96509801So far I know only three distinct models:1- BRP Call of Ctuhlhu: you roll to check if you find the clue; this is also the norm for most games out there2- InSpectres: Roll high enough and you get to narrate the clue finding3- Gumshoe: You automatically find the clueAre there any others, and how do they work?Also, feel free to expand on any of the above if you want to.I post this not only to see what other games there are, but also to try and find alternate solutions for the problem "if you fail to find the clue, the game dies".
>>96532766>3- Gumshoe: You automatically find the clueActually not. Core clues are what you find automatically*, but you do spend for, well, point-spend clues. For finer details and more clarity, basically.*=technically you don't spend for zero point clues, incospicious clues or simple searches as well.
The Aztec ACKs campaign report that was posted to /osrg/ is worth looking at. The structure of the campaign involves investigating different leads in order to track down the location of something.https://mega.nz/file/id51UZqa#9pZoBcVtOF3vssbZ4kON2WN9XAbGvSi-TStiB9nKTxY
The military should show up more often in cyberpunk settings/games. There's something really cool about corporation lackeys or street thugs getting BTFO by a whole other level of tech>but cyberpunk is about when the government is weakYeah but there's still going to be some kind of military and they ARE going to be way ahead 99% of corporations.
>>96535454Dodging the law doesn't mean the law doesn't exist. The legal ramifications of the gear they try to acquire for their jobs is very real and a constant source of potential trouble if they accidentally buy from undercover cops or a regular they buy from gets arrested and snitches on his customers to cover his own ass. Military-grade is still a meaningful distinction even in these cyberpunk settings for that reason, it means you're leaving the civilian market and either buying things that will get you thrown in buttfuck prison forever or you're shifting enough bills to buy whatever it is that it represents a massive investment for your team.
Problem is the usual corpos vs state idea is not really believable, so this kind of question is not even wrong.
>>96535493What I always find so difficult with suspending belief and immersion is the fact that they are still walking around everyday with these "military" grade upgrades.I suppose if it doesn't visibly turn you into something like Adam Smasher then going to get coffee from a cafe doesn't look as weird with your weaponized body unless it's all conveniently made so you still look like a person but built like a tank.
>>96535290when people say military grade they're usually implying its more durable, like cordura stuff
>>96533216>they ARE going to be way ahead 99% of corporations.Not really. The premise of Cyberpunk is that corpos have insane amounts of power. The megacorps are the ones researching all of that fancy tech that the government would be paying contracts for. And because the government is weaker, that means they don't have unlimited funds to buy the best bleeding-edge tech from every corp.If they did, then you wouldn't have a cyberpunk setting, because any megacorp that tries to go against the government wouldn't be able to stand up to a military cyborg raid. Which is precisely why the megacorps don't sell their best stuff to the military in cyberpunk, so that they can continue to do shit with impunity.
Did your character grow up with a father figure in their life?
>>96533571https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-A-q-uzBJ4
>>96525880Yes
>>96525880Yeah, and they had a good, if strict, relationship. My character is the eldest in the party and passes on some of the wisdom he inherited from his father at times to the younger folk who respond with mixed levels of interest. He was raised well enough, came of age, became a member of the clergy, took some time to care for his aging father, and was there for his end and oversaw his funeral service.
>>96525880Bout half of them have some kinda paternal parentage. The rest are some flavor of orphan with various relationships related to a teacher/student situation or a power structure, being the ward of some keeper or the experiment/creation of someone that developed a paternal relationship with their creator/researcher. I think only one or two don't have any father figure in their life.pic unrelated
>>96525880Most of them did, though not all.One was a magical abomination that escaped (wizard + monster + accident = them)...not much in the way of parental figures, though perhaps some of the wizard rubbed off on them?One is a street rat orphan type, who has a chance now and loved ones to care about; they're struggling a bit with it, but it'll likely work out.Some of the others had father figures, but they were lackluster or effectively supplanted. The manipulative tycoon-type girl with the older sister was even more that, would have only left so much room for her actual father to be a father figure, but she still did grow up in a household with one.Others presumably had them, but it never came up.Others definitely had them, and some were referenced in game or discussed with the GM on character ideas/backgrounds/etc... very few if any got any real screen time in any of the campaigns directly.
