>>96481234Consider the D10s to be 0 indexed, ie the 0s are actually 0s not 10.
>>96481234Why not use the same roll type for both Affect and Effect rolls? As in either both 2d10+X vs TN or both Xd10 vs TN to generate successes.
Guys I have an idea for a game, but I don't know how to compartmentalize and structure my thoughts into a cohesive, readable and interesting manner. How am I supposed to take my thoughts, test them, and structure them? Not even trolling btw. Send help.
>>96481683You put them to paper, then leave it for a week, come back, read it, blanch in horror, rewrite, repeat.
>>96481683Start by setting up some general concept pools; i.e. all movement rules go here, all ranged interactions go here. Then just write down everything that comes to mind as you think about the game. When you go and try out the ideas, you can then start cutting out the ideas that you don't use or don't work, and start moving it into a structure that makes sense to read and follow.

>>96480590I don't think it was a good choice to use a term that is...>...a common term used by many people in discussions in real life and regularly interchangeable with the term firearm>...already getting thrown around in the system with rifles and ranged meta
>>96481577The point is that every ranged weapon in the core book ARE guns for the purpose of Operative's abilities, despite the wide range of weapon classes they fit in. It keeps it generic, future-proofed, and easily memorable for people, and can easily slot in the pre-existing firearms as long as they explain that stuff like cryo-cannons aren't really FIREarms. It also not something prone to getting mixed up thanks to the genericness of the term. "Ranged weapon with analog/tech trait? Yeah, gun".The only awkwardness would probably involve combination firearms, seeing as non-Strikers lack a clarification that the whole combo will be a "gun" for the purposes of scaling. Or the two crossbows being a gun but you have to be really smoothbrained to get upset about that. Ultimately, I doubt that Operative is going to hog the term in any real effective way.
>>96480998Despite what hopium addicts in this thread would have you believe, no this game is basically stagnating and is still niche despite technically being DnD's biggest competitor. It's the Firefox of Tabletop.

Could I do the same thing again everytime other time? >>96481166>There are a bunch of creators that offer a merchant's licenseNeed not apply in this instance, or at least I don't think the original modeler would have the balls to try and attach a license.>>96481269>However to make a print that's acceptable and accurate you first need to navigate the honeypot of games workshop controlled telegram groups.>Good luck getting the filesLets hypothetical say I have already gone past that stage and still scott free.
>>96481431What exactly are you looking for here, anon?Legally? No, you can't do that. That is specifically forbidden under IP and Copyright Law.Practically? Sure, do it until the IP holder notices and sends a cease and desist. Then change the name of your store or change which creator you're printing from and do it again. Rinse and repeat. Chances are that the smaller creators won't even be able to send you an official cease and desist.If you make a lot of money doing this, like over 10k annually, then report it to the IRS and pay taxes. Otherwise even the small creators can use them as an attack dog to retaliate. Bonus point here is that you can then list all your models, paints, printers, filament, and resin as business expenses.
>>96481712I suppose I am looking for advice on whether it is practical and if I will I be super raped for it, but if I can operate until a C/D hits me for some reason that will realistically be enough time for me to pay off some big bills and go onto new things. I earn a decent wage as it is but I am forced to put savings away for a bill I need to take care of, but with something like this I can get over that hump quicker and enjoy life more if that makes sense.>If you make a lot of money doing this, like over 10k annually, then report it to the IRS and pay taxes.That's a good point. I am not sure if I will get to that point but with the prints in question I am going to see if I can get 80 a pop for them due them normally being just over half a grand non-printed, assuming I can make it practical and work to begin with. I have a test print underway as we speak for the largest section at 12 hours with the rest of the parts adding up in total to around 36-48 hours of print time at the very most. I guess I could also have a contact email or number included with orders in case of C/D and continue operating that way too with pre-existing customers, but I am getting ahead of myself there.
>What is Genesys?Released in November 2017, Genesys is a pen-and-paper generic/universal RPG system and toolkit by Fantasy Flight Games and EDGE Studio, using a refined version of the system presented by their Star Wars RPGs (Edge of the Empire, Age of Rebellion, Force and Destiny). Its central mechanic is the Narrative Dice System, using pools made of specialized dice to create narrative results. The intention is for the system to be a highly flexible narrative system, adaptable to most any conceivable setting and premise.https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/genesys/https://edge-studio.net/>Where can I find the books?Check the Online Extras pastebin below for something useless. The core book is the only mandatory book.>Do I have to buy the fancy dice to play the game?Only if you want physical dice to roll.

>>96474777Honestly this mechanic/subsystem was improved in L5R 5e. >Each character sets a goal in the encounter (Know target motivation, skills & talents, give a curse,etc)>Each character has to get a separate amount of success>Once success amount is reach the goal is attain>If there are competing successes it is first one first served and comparison of amount to determine the degree of success. >Various techniques may hinder, help, or outright tell falsehoods on a target's goal.
>>96474984That's just social encounters in general, which is broader in scope than motivations.
>>96474777I know. I can read the rule book. Players can decide how they spend their advantage, so it's up to them to look for motivations.
I'm trying it again. Putting together a guide for setting creation, focused on player handouts and getting to play as fast as possible.Any input on what you would like to see in it?
>>96480487Forgive me, but what was your first attempt? Genesys can be just about anything, so I imagine you're trying to come up with roll tables that cover a wide range of topics? I'd be interested to see what you have already done and where you are trying to go.
What TTRPG system has the best combat in your opinion? What makes it shine compared to other systems out there?
>>96476326Wrong. Some preferences are better than others.
>>96479449No.
>>96466207Prowlers and Paragons, obviously.
>>96466207I like mythras, its quite mortal, you can chop limbs, it has cool stuff to do and quite a breakable but fun magics. Not ideal for combat heavy games tough, getting killed is quite easy, as you have limited action and can be mobed be chaff quite easy.
>>96469189>"Yeah, but Shadowrun is unplayable"I hear shit like this all the time. I think its a combo of the unorthodox character creation and class agnostic philosophy that turns people off. The traditional TTRPG structure is not in the rules of Shadowrun. The game almost expects you to spend longer planning a shadowrun than actually preforming one.On top of that people like to say the system is math heavy, which is untrue, it's basic algebra. You learn algebra in grade school. I imagine the only case where shadowrun can be described as easier to pick up is if your first experience is GURPS.
I thought you guys said black people cant like Warhammer?

>>96481170>in my experience blacks really like yugioh for some reasonAs a black man, I will say that YuGiOh is my least favorite card game. Fuck that shit. The only thing good about it is the card art and the reprint policy. Oh and the foils are cool. Other than that, utter trash. And YuGiOh players are FAR worse than their game.
>>96481126The chapter looks like Salamanders but the symbol looks like a hawk's head... What chapter is it?
You know the drill, post you terrain collection, WIP terrain, or terrain inspiration!!!!
>>96480990At least during 3rd and 4th you could get inside buildings.Things like bunkers usually get the vehicle treatment. It was there but it never got too much attention, since usually fighting in interiors was it own separate scenarios with their own rules like Zone Mortalis or Boarding Actions
>>96480990I notice this as well. The only definitive ruleset for indoors I can think of for 40K is Battlezone: Cityfight, and that essentially said "cut out floor plans for each building and play on them seperately". I am sketching out floor plans for modular, playable interiors for 40k for my local, because I hate that all we have are old cities of death pieces glued in random half square shapes, or half square styrofoam ruins that are chipping and snapping apart.I think it might be because 40k has so many units that arent human shaped, or are jsut really big, especially nowadays, and it just sort of is made an afterthoguht because trying to make rules that apply to both a guardsman and a dreadnought probably makes people pull their hair out.Can you give me names, or even links, to those wargames that you feel have good rules for playing in and with buildings? Would really help me out.
>>96481500See that's the thing.... Not every unit SHOULD be able to enter a building. That is the benefit of infantry in real life, their purpose is to take and hold ground. Infantry can dig in, hunker down, fortify positions in buildings. Tanks and dreadnaughts can not. That's exactly how it should be.
>>96450353Any good guide or manuals for modern buildings like these?
>>96481631Yeah on YouTube

>>96476753I want to lick her vagina.
>>96474760I think there's one more group who could be considered understandably mad. People who got paired against a bad or indecisive player Round 1 and it suddenly becomes more likely they'll have to go against more bad or indecisive players. Especially with the additional Swiss rounds and a Top 8 cutoff.However, I largely think this is a side effect of the assumption you can only go X-2 at most, and I feel that the loss threshold is going to be higher with the rules changes.
>>96479754I agree in the sentiment but I don't put a lot of weight into whataboutisms. It does affect it from locals to nats but I don't think this really matters at a locals level because you're there for nothing other than the garbage products or refunding my entry. I don't care that much if I get fucked there.When it comes to a regional or higher I don't think you're often getting random know-nothings there, or at least you're less likely too. The further up you go the less likely it should be as well This is just general competitive advice but do not be a pushover at events, such as wanting to call a judge or asking your opp to not waste time aimlessly flipping through cards. It's not that you're being an asshole it's that you want to play competitively on a timer. Do not be afraid to call for judges to maintain accurate game states and good sportsmanship/not slow playing. That's what they're being paid to be there for after all.
>>96473487>>96475463This only makes time scumming worse because of how the double loss makes your overall score worse in tiebreakers than just losing normally. Someone can lose game one, and then insist on playing to time and not conceding the match, and knowing that, the winning player now knows they're guaranteed to lose, and their best move is forfeiting to get a better score than the double loss. It gives the losing player essentially a suicide vest to cheat match wins with
>>96481347This logic is dumb because you're pretending like everyone will employ this "tactic". And by extension of everyone employing this it means everyone will have a bunch of losses and it will mean a net nothing has changed.So you either have to concede to people aren't going to be employing this every time which means the sky is falling situation isn't real or that everybody is doing it and it's like nothing changed.Or you can try it and not be extremely pessimistic and have a bit more faith in people that they won't be employing it like this.Do you see everyone employing stalling for time even though people were doomposting about the previous time rules and the "everyone's just going to go to time and get a free win!!!1!!1!"
