>What attributes do your game use?
Vitality
Constitution
Strength
Agility
Dexterity
Charisma
Awareness
Intelligence
Wisdom
...
>How do you use them?
Myself, I'm brewing something where I want them used by pair, using Charisma+Intelligence for persuasion or using Constitution+Charisma to intimidate, so you aren't totally doomed if you didn't put points in one skill.

How does this look?


[Physique] :: Equal to sum of SubStats :: Health pool.
-Strength- :: Governs violence and exercises of force.
-Endurance- :: Governs resistance against physical forces.
-Metabolism- :: Governs digestion, recovery, and biological/chemical resistance.

[Motorics] :: Equal to sum of SubStats :: AP pool.
-Dexterity- :: Governs fine motor finesse, particular in the hands.
-Agility- :: Governs acrobatic and athletic feats
-Reflex- :: Governs evasion and other feats requiring twitch responses.

[Psyche] :: Equal to sum of SubStats :: Morale pool.

Thanks for the constructive argumentation, it's fascinating how anons give such wildly opposite ideas.
Just to be clear, yes Dex+Int is best choice for skilled works.
But if I only use Agility, Agility+Int would become skilled-work and only 3 stats would lead to easy ninja agile, smart & crafty.
...unless I then use Agility/Dexterity+Awareness/Perception to cover a ninja who invested in Agility+Awareness but lack the Int to craft or disarm stuff.

>Willpower+Vitality works fine for someone lifting something heavy
My magic system really override Strength and Willpower is to be a character defining stat you can chose not to invest in, not a Laziness stat.
Sames goes for using Willpower along Intelligence to see things, it would force to put points in Willpower just in case.
I must reveal that I intend to use Willpower as a bad thing due to magic or fast-talking a Willpower build lacking Int or charisma.
I might look for a whole new attribute name.

Care to go in more depth why separating Dex & Agility is important for you?
Myself I want to differentiate so an Assassin's can leverage Vitality+Dexterity over a plain Vitality+Agility.

>Care to go in more depth why separating Dex & Agility is important for you?
Different guy here, but I like the idea of separating the two because they can have wildly different applications.
Dexterity is fine motor, and Agility is Gross motor. Folding a paper crane and vaulting over a barrier without losing any speed or momentum are very different skills.

Fire: Acts as strength, passion, charisma
Earth: Acts as willpower, resistance, and stubborn
Metal: Acts as logic and precision, intellect
Water: Acts as empathy, perception, adaptation
Wood: Acts as stealth, agility, and deception

Done. I've solved attributes using the most based elemental system.
>>
World War D uses 10/11 Attributes , each contributing to three factors of your character. With most units having randomized stat gains this should help each stat feel impactful.

Strength: Physical Damage, Stun Reel, Carrying Capacity
Agility: Reactive Damage Bonus, Crit Reel, Running Movement Spatial
Dexterity: Critical Damage Bonus, Dodge Chance, Skirmish Movement
Endurance: Focus Damage Bonus, Hit Point Capacity, Defensive Matrix Bonus
Intelligence: Technical Damage Bonus, Affliction Reel, Skill Point Capacity
Perception: Dynamic Damage, Direct Hit Reel , Range Bonus Spatial
Magic: Magical Damage, Spirit Points Capacity, MAGA bonus
Wisdom: Exploitative Damage Bonus, Control Area Spatial, Support Magic Tax (SMT)
Charisma: Co-op Damage Bonus, Co-op Reel, Smirk Reel
Luck: Bonus Reel, Antiffliction Reel, Force Fate points ( like a reroll but used preemptively for gamespeed)
Finally there is Reason which is only for human characters with agency. Your in game faction will populate this stat one of several ways.

Nothing prevents sorcerers from using all the elements. In fact, one of their metamagic options is specifically for changing the elemental type of a spell, and in 2024, they get an exclusive cantrip that can do any type of elemental damage they want.

You are the Game Master. In the middle of a fight, one of your PCs pulls a handful of sand out of his pocket and throws it at the enemy's eyes. Yes this PC was previously established as having sand in his pocket.

Quick, without looking anything up, adjudicate this action in the manner you believe is most in line with your preferred system's rules.

After you answer you may look it up. Did you get it right? I bet you didn't.

There are no rules for this in the game that I know of.
>>
>>96471537
It's just a dirty trick: player performs a combat maneuver and if successful he causes the target to become blind for a round per 5 points over CMD.

What systems/mechanics provide good rules for simulating progress of a war effort?
How would you portray moving frontlines and exchange of territories during a war? Both from perspective of commanders and boots on the ground.

Someone based, hybrid mana is cool as fuck.
If you mean how it's organized it's based on the WUBRG color order from and has basically always been the rule. Using this card as an example.
Blue comes before black so the hybrid mana has the top-left as blue and the bottom-right as black. It's an inbetween of blue and black so it goes before the black pip.
Black pip is next in wuBrg.
Then similar to the first hybrid mana black is before red so it's split left to right accordingly and the placed after the black.
Think of hybrid mana symbols like half steps between WUBRG.
Enemy color pairs are a little funky and they go by which direction on the wheel is a shorter distance and attempt to skip a color but organized similarly based on the left most color in hybrid like pic.
Red comes before green in wubRG so it comes before the green pip.

Very early on in the game they just did whatever and in rare cases like cpt. america they reorganize them for flavor reasons.

What made gnomes so special that they needed to be a core race for so long? they were only introduced shortly after the original races buts still stick around to this day. they are never really popular player races, and don't really fulfill the same fantasy tropes as the other races did
So why stick around as a core and not just be a later supplement?

you fucking take that back, you filthy heretic!
the excelsior project WAS a success. TNG warp 10 is about tOS warp 15-18. and the warp scale re-defined co-incided with the excelsior project, so whilst it DID NOT provide a working transwarp system
(even the borg in TNG only had a transwarp network because they built fucking macroscalar engineering projects in the form of transwarp conduit gates)

the excelsiors massive nacelles, hugely increased warp coils and the sheer engine power of how much warp plasma she could generate, helped her lead science into the re-done warp scale, finding far better, more efficient ways of doing warp.

AND, you ingrate, whilst the connie was a heavy Cruiser, the excelsior entered service a Battleship. being over twice the size of a connie.

Shangri-La is obviously a connie, but rebuilt or redesigned heavily to slant the entire purpose towards combat. a science or exploration vessel she aint. she is clearly a torpedo spitting death machine with all those extra toooooooobs.

I feel like making something, ideally something OSR-adjacent. This is kind of an open-ended question: what RPG supplement or other cool thing does /tg/ want to see? Think something you'd pay between $3 and $5 for.

I've got some game design and writing experience. I can handle graphic design and illustration (and sound too, if relevant). I just want some input on what you think might be cool. Trying to decide what to put a little time into.

See those three mounted guns?
The one with the coils is the lasgun, the double barrel is an autocannon, and the last one is a heavy bolter proxy.
Those three have appeared in the cannon fodder heavy weapons STL pack too.
I think they're WGA's go-to heavy weapons and they somewhat looks passable as 40k heavy weapons.

But for now we have to wait and see if WGA will even release the heavy weapons for their Roman guys at all. What they release in what order is pretty schizophrenic of them.
