I watch Hermetic Hipster and Mage: the Podcast, both are podcasts themed around "Mage the Awakening" even though I haven't played it in a long time, I just like the lore feel and presentation.

I watched DingoDoodles

Goodberry can sustain you for a day per berry, so its better. The only downside of Goodberry is that it has to be freshly picked while this one can be 5 specific junk/spices of whatever age & quality.
Also you can target anything with this... So I guess you can materialize cookies to lure enemies or put it in a really inconvenient place.
>>96497253
It becomes better if you metamagic: Empower

I know the answer can always be "talk to your DM" but I wanted to muse about something

If I make a Stone Golem & then cast Stone Metamorphosis on it to turn its stone components into Clear Black Rock would creatures with Darkvision have a hard time seeing it?

What about fighting a Stone Golem or living Stone creature & using the spell to turn it into Crumblestone?

What could a Quickstone Golem do? Or for that matter, how overpowered would a Sickstone Golem be to fight?

>>96498120
Remember that you can actually stack Empowers if you have the spellslots/alternate ways to add metamagics too. I don't know why that rulling is so often overlooked

>>96497249
It doesn't really create enough food to sustain 1 medium size creature for a day, which goodberry does. Not without multiple castings anyway. It also doesn't impart any HP recovery, which goodberry also does. I did that on purpose so it doesn't just replace 'goodberry' or 'create food & water'

Real originality is a misnomer, there's nothing new under the sun, only ways to mix them.

I have no idea what the fuck is wrong with Bing again. This new feature only operates on GPT model, and each time I want to gen using DALLE I have to switch back to the main page. So in short, the editor feature is fucking useless.

Fuck them for making previously best free gen tool a useless shit with every update.

Yeah, it's been constantly getting worse. Using it now is so bad. Constantly making sure you have the prompt copied, and going to the main page for every prompt

Hey anon, thank you for your comments!
Yeah, it's there to help people create matchups easily. (The whole idea of this game is to introduce the idea of wargaming to a society where it does not exist.)
Yeah, actually I saw your message as I was working on it. The fantasy supplement WILL come, when it is finished --though I don't know when. (And a fantasy rpg afterwards using the same system). Then a sci-fi supplement too.
The rules are available on Wargame Vault, freely.

The best way to support me would be to play the game with others --as I do this as a sort of community project.

I'm in a country where 4channel is banned, where paypal is banned, and currently the internet connection is throttled for some political events... Turkey
I activated 'pay-what-you-want' on my earlier D&D releases because people didn't really like AI artwork on cover; with the hope of commissioning a cover art, then I saw that it was not gonna happen, so I opted for the old art.

I'll make sure that whatever I put out will ALWAYS be free-as-in-freedom.

Mirror image and Blur seem good on paper, but considering most fights last 3 rounds tops, spending one of them to just defensively buff up when you are a ranged character ie already out of harms way and could sneak around with your bonus action instead it's not great pick. Blur is just straight up worse than Mirror image imo. Shield can be done on reaction at any time you get swarmed by enemies to give you a freakish ac just when you need it, without using any of your precious few actions.

Your reasoning on misty step is sound, it's nice to have, but with your limited slots and your cunning action you can probably do without it.

As someone who seems very preoccupied with defensive stuff in a deadly game, consider Fog cloud. An often forgotten trait of these spells that obscure vision is that attacks of opportunity cannot be made on targets that cannot be seen. Meaning you could bail a fellow player out if they're getting attacked by putting a fog cloud on them, allowing them to run out of there as if they had disengaged. Invisibility can achieve the same thing, but is only touch range, so more for yourself in most situations, and then you can just bonus action disengage.

If you have access to a feat, and you get to use Tasha's cauldron for everything, consider picking up the Metamagic Adept feat. Subtle and Quicken. Casting spells completely silently while sneaking around or in plain sight when talking to npcs without any indication it was you could really up the trickery feel of your character and would probably be really fun. With quicken you could also potentially pick up something like Hold person and fish for an auto-crit where you bonus cast the hold person and sneak attack crit them on the same turn if it lands. You could only do it once per long rest and it's not the best, but would feel really cool.

>>96498476
Thanks for the Fog Cloud recommendation, I totally missed out on that spell when I was looking for stuff to pick and it seems pretty useful, especially since it's 120 feet range. I'll definitely consider that one.
Most encounters we go through are relatively easy when it comes to swarms of enemies, goblins and whatnot, but our DM likes to throw "boss encounters" at us pretty often. There was one recently that spooked me. A massive undead gorilla that could move 40 feet and had a legendary action to jump 60 feet and cause everyone in the melee range of where he lands to make a CON saving throw or get stunned. And he had multi attack. So that thing stunning and attacking you is a death sentence.
Now that I'm getting level 8, I'll be getting Sharpshooter so my goal is to always be at 120 feet away from the boss whenever we do a boss encounter, just to avoid creatures like this one. But DM also knows I'm getting Sharpshooter next level so he can design bosses specifically to bully me, which is why I want more defensive abilities. My only big issue with that is, my own darkvision is only 60 feet, and there's a chance I might be unable to see the enemy, depending on where the party members are. That's why I'm seriously considering getting Eldritch Adept - Devil's Sight at level 10, if I live that long. As Arcane Trickster, I have spellcasting so I'm eligible to take that feat. Alternatively, it's either Tough for 20 extra hit points, or Resilient (CON) for 10 extra hit points and proficiency in CON saves.

>>96485231
I allow whatever the fuck the players want to do, because I'm not a faggot. What, am I gonna prescribe them what kind of relationship they will have with people in the setting?

>>96498636
If it's the single boss fights that give you trouble, then if you get into the loop of Shoot>hide, >Shoot>hide, Shoot>hide, then you'll stay hidden between your turns and you won't have to worry about the boss jumping across the map to hurt you since he can't see you and will free you from the need to have those action to cast defensive spells.

If your dm starts doing multiple creature boss fights so one of the bosses stays on you or tries to fuck you with plain maps with no cover or shadows to fascilitate hide (which is boring and kind of defeats the point of the rogue, but some dms are antagonistic like that), and you also notice he has these giant + to hit on his bosses that basically never miss, then shield isn't as good since the boss will always hit anyway and then mirror image is good since it will neglect any attack no matter how big the hit bonus is if it hits an illusion.

As someone who plays on a grid, these 120ft distances are kind of rare, but perhaps you play in very big rooms. And if your dm is big on light rules and you often fight in darkness then I suppose darkvision could be useful. Most tables just handwave that stuff as "eh, it's a bit dark but you all kind of see what's happening where the fight is" but again, maybe your table is strict at that stuff. Also, like you yourself said, your dm is already making custom abiltiies to hunt chase you down across the map then he likely won't stop just because you increase the distance, he will simply up his game too, and wasting an entire feat for darkvision is really costly. Devil's sight does open you up to picking up the Darkness spell which you could cast on your ranged weapon to run around with it. How the dm would interpret that darkness would be kind of iffy,if you're in a poorly lit room it could blend in to make it easier to stealth around and give you permanent adv. on attacks and disadv. on theirs. If the room is brightly lit, makes it obvious you're in the shadow though.

Shadow (Black Ash or Caustic Alchemy) plus Rapid-Fire or Sniper is a tried and true, effective build. Admittedly, it can be rather repetitive and routine-inducing, as I have seen, but at least it gets the job done competently.

>>96497917
Explain these negotiations to me. First off, do you got a PDF? Second, the way someone else summarized them is that they're a subsystem that could potentially be tacked on to another system. Is that broadly accurate?

>>96499017
I am doing a lot of the same things round to round, but I've found that it gives over characters more choices to make as to whether the situation favors throwing love my way or on other characters.

Combat can get a little samey when the encounter objective is just defeat the enemy, but my Director likes doing lots of different encounter objectives that help to mix things up and Black Ash has a lot of utility there. Last session I wasn't even really attacking I was on the rooftops teleporting around and sabotaging controls for security consoles so my party could win a traversal encounter across a locked down bridge before they were overwhelmed. Was a blast.

One thing I am noticing broadly is that the system is at its poorest when you have a director that is doing back to back to back 'defeat all enemies' encounters. It shines with variety.

>>96497796
Are you the kind who rallies others to fight? Might want to put some points into Presence. Or are you more of a Rambo type, that just wants to take the fight to the enemy? Put additional points in Brawn.

As far as talent trees, Saboteur if you're going Rambo. Otherwise, Infiltrator and Scout trees under the Spy career also seem like they'd fit your idea.

>>96487731
Master of the force should be reserved for Jedi Masters only (or Anakin/Luke for obvious reasons). I mean its called MASTER of the force. Easy fix would just be calling it Jedi Master, or Jedi Master General but the latter doesn't quite roll off the tongue. Yeah I'm just being autistic about flavour, customisable Jedi are cool.

>>96496751
>yeah I noticed that when watching the OT, the rebellion was constantly moving from a single planet to a single planet, Alderaan, Yavin, Hoth, etc.. made it feel smaller than it actually was desu
I never understand this mentality desu. Are people really so lacking in conscious creative thought that they can only ever comprehend things that are directly shown and explained to them on-screen? I watched the OT on VHS as an 8+ year old kid and even then it was patently obvious to me that we were only watching one small part of a much larger conflict, because even in the context of an heroic fantasy the notion a few hundred dudes and a princess could fight a meaningful conflict against a galaxy-spanning Empire was farcical nonsense. Some people evidently consider the EU to have "retconned" the films, but that's retarded as are they - it merely confirmed what people with an IQ above 7 had already concluded themselves.

>>96497835
I think I'm going to be the rally type. He's got to be at least somewhat inspiring/good to follow if his job prior to game time was essentially getting strangers in high stress environments to listen to and learn from him. Rambo's fun, and extra Brawn is great and all for a bunch of stuff, but hopefully I'll be able to have at least one Parry-maxed Jedi between me and whoever wants to kill me. between buddies and stuff from the Trailblazer tree, I *should* theoretically be as safe as if I were to pump extra points into Brawn.

Between Infiltrator and Scout, I think Scout might be better, or at least it looks more my personal speed, not to mention the Disorient synergy with Trailblazer. I do still like the idea of Saboteur, but I'll backburner that until I completely run out of other things to spend XP on, if that ever happens.

Thank's for the advice anon
