I've been working on a translation of the 1988 Wizardry TTRPG to play with my friends and have just finished the core rule book.
I've seen the game mentioned on here a couple of times so I thought I'd upload it in case anyone is interested.
https://gofile.io/d/3GBDyf

I have confidence in my knowledge of Japanese, but not in my ability to use office or image editing programs so sorry if it falls short in that regard.

The game came with two short scenarios and a longer, complete adaptation of Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord for use with the Wizardry TTRPG system... which I haven't translated yet, but will.

If I knew clean scans existed, I would've just replaced the Japanese text with English in the scans rather than attempting an amateur reconstruction of the book as I did (not seeing any other choice as I lacked the tools to make scans myself).

Oh well, these will be very useful and I daresay save me a lot of time in translating the two short scenarios and Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord.

I don't suppose you have scans of the supplemental books or トレボー戦役?

>If I knew clean scans existed, I would've just replaced the Japanese text with English in the scans
All the cutting, pasting, rearranging, unblurring, recontrasting, etc. involved in using scans would have probably taken you a lot longer. And the original layout wasn't much different from just a regular Word document, so what you did is better and cleaner. Thanks for the work!

Nope, sorry. I was just searching for some JP textbook scans and the site I found just happened to have a tiny section of RPG scans, this and the JP RuneQuest box sets was pretty much it for TTRPGs.
I'm glad you can get some use out of it. Thanks again for sharing your work.

There was a certain class of games, particularly for (Old|New) World of Darkness before they renamed it to CofD, that were really popular. Basically you would fill out your sheet as a starting character, then go before a Storyteller/GM that was like a DMV bureaucrat, who would verify that you made legal choices and would sometimes argue with you about if you need Firearms 3.

Then you'd be let in to the actual game. You'd have semi-freeform "scenes" with other PCs who did the same process, and occasionally, the ST/GM would show up and do a "scene" where the chips are really on the table, you can make real moves. You'd do XP requests and get standard XP quantities based on activity, basically attendance.

But then they kinda just disappeared in the late 2000s/early 2010s, right before the rename to CofD. I think there were games of similar structure for other RPGs, but (o|n)WoD was the big one.

What happened, man? Why did they fall out of style?

There's a few ways to do decent multi-target damage and battlefield control that spell slot economy can justify bringing to a party despite how much they're overshadowed by the caster counterparts, but truly non-combat stuff IS in the shitter.

No internet, no phones, essentially no surveillance cameras.

Now it's just ridiculous. Does the game even try to pretend it would be possible in 2025? I really like Sandy Petersen and Call of Cthulhu, for example, but I've seen a couple of extreme cope videos where he does the "you don't get it, 2020 technology gives an even GREATER advantage to the Elder Ones vs 1920!"

Leave em be to have fun with what they want, at least they're less annoying then the unironic chaos stans who call the Imperium fascist every day and make you wonder if they actually engage with the hobby seeing as half the shit chaos does is way worse then whatever a fascist could ever do.

I like chaos but I understand its way worse then anything the Imperium does mostly because Chaos is quite literally Primordial evil itself and the chaos gods want your soul and don't give two shits about you most the time hence all the chaos spawn running around.

Classic case of a catch 22 though, do nothing chaos gets powerful because when you die your soul goes to the warp and chaos get a buff, do something and you empower the warp because what you did benefits a chaos god in some way.

Catch 22 you know. Or at least that's how I view it anyway, sure the Necrons could probably handle it with their pylons but then what happens when someone breaks the pylons doesn't even have to be a human cause an Ork would probably break a pylon to test out his choppa

It's a fictional game setting, anon. People who "praise Chaos!" are having a bit of in-character fun (uhh... most of them). There really aren't many "Imperium-stans," generally (but they're ok, like the group above). It's Astartesfags specifically who too often are legitimately unable to separate themselves from their toys, which they use as a self-insert power fantasy. Many of them seem to legitimately be aggrieved that other armies even exist in the game or setting. They want 40k to be nothing but loyalist Astartes, presumably with no opfor (except each other?). It's made worse because they collect/play the publisher's-pet army, and are encouraged in their stupidity and obnoxiousness by GW. A "faction" tailor-made for the worst elements among their customers.

Dead Man's Hand of he Emperor session:

Crackolytes had one sleep and rejoined the Arbitrator in charge while the Proctor-Laureate is stuck getting ambushed in the deserte. Seems like having killed Seth ruined someone's huge plans and whoever's in charge is just fucking the most shit up they can.
Arbitrator says we can possibly get one squad, the one "the regiment wants to get rid of", if we convince them enough, to go help the siege. We ask how do we convince tthem to help more and the possible answer is going into the Administratum HQ and talking with the Adept-Intercolutor bitch.Kms myself.

Tech Priest clutches the diplomacy rolls and makes good argument to let the mockery of a human let us borrow her astropath.

>astropath is a 12yo boy
>our gm sure likes child labour huh
>callidia gets called a sad girl

We are nice to the astropath child and engage in conversation, since he's kept locked away only able to hear everyone's thoughts. He sends the message since the guard is nearby, he tell them to send a forward squad to reinforce the abbey while the main force lands on the port and meet with us.
Hopefully this is all enough to convince whatever general or colonel on the way, to go fight the Fratelis Templar even if we have to directly spin it on being about the tithe.

2 days left since their actual landing on the planet. Time to vox the Abbey about the good(?) news, if the Abbey doesn't have a long range vox then Callidia is using Haxta's riding crop on the Canoness.

Alternative ideas for what 4th edition could include, such as alternating activations, new unit ports, etc. This is a Stage 4 process and so there's plenty of time for that later on.

They were not used *by you*. And you didn't answer my question: what else should we not be including by your dumb standard? CA army lists? VDR? What about Forgeworld, should we cut that too?

Here is the single, solitary criteria that matters: Did the rule in question A; exist prior to 2006 and B; function with the 4th edition core rules? If yes, it should be in the project, and evidently everyone but you agrees so how about you toddle off and make your own "4th Edition SRD: Boring No Fun Allowed Poofters Edition" if you don't like it.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but are you looking at the 4th edition codex from 2008, or the 3rd edition codex from 1999?

in the doc we've been using the codexes from the specific era of "3.5" which you can find here >>96541810, which cuts off before the 4th ed book as it was one of the last ones to come out. in the 3rd ed book they were called Wartrukks, and i have yet to find an instance in that book that says mega armor takes up 2 transport capacity. wartrukks also had a capacity of 10 models. i am confident that was later.

>>96586731
>>96588780
other anon seems to be referencing 4th ed, not the 3rd ed codex like we are using for this project. transport cap is 10 on wartrukks, and mega armor has no mention till later on of taking two spots.
