Childish mary sue writing full of edgy shit (Artemis Entreri is such a good assassin he killed my interest in Forgotten Realms for many years, by sheer dumb edginess).

A person should outgrow Salvatore, Moor Cock, and Robert Jordan by the age of 14-15 and recognize them for the dumb childish crap they are.

theres really nothing better
all "mature" stuff is just edgewank and degeneracy

>>
>>96759060
Quite the contrary. Nihilistic crap like Moor Cock is worthless edgewank.
There's plenty of good fantasy, such as Andre Norton, Barbara Hambley, Tad Williams, or (early) Ursula Leguin, that is actually awesome without degeneracy or edginess.

You can get it for free from the catbox link, but I'd appreciate it if you got it from DTRPG, even if you don't want to pay me money, because that drives up my metrics. I think there's also a Trove version.

So there's no epub for Bastion of Law yet, but the rules are out there right? Someone must have done a "man reads books" review on youtube or something that showed all the relevant pages. I'm itching to see what they've done with my enforcers.

They became a normal gang. Downside is that it incentivized more than 1 edgelord to play them in the same campaign, which is cringe. And Ash Waste Enforcers still stay in their old version with the mediocre stats and all, and is now a true fluffy version, instead of a tryhard enforcers "i'm an ash waste cop living in the spire"

>fight value represents raw skill as a duelist, so you're more likely to defeat an opponent in a 1v1,
That was the point of confusion. Because in a straight 1 to 1 fight with one attack (1 die) each you would only use the fight value ~17% of the time to determine the winner of a fight, because you need to roll the same numbers for it to come into play at all. It is only when more dice are being thrown (multiple attacks) that the odds change in a way that you are likely going to use the fight skill to resolve the duel, because statistically you are more likely to roll 6s.

The math would change dramatically depending on how this check is resolved.
Example: Tiny gobbo has low fight and no strength but multiple attacks, say three. Big Ogre is strong and a good fighter but slow, say one attack. Unless Ogre gets to defend against all three attacks with a single dice of his own (because he has one attack) he will almost never win even though he is a better fighter and stronger. If Ogre gets to defend against each dice individually he will almost never lose, because the likelyhood of a matched dice roll and use of his stats increases to ~85%.
Another element to this is the narrative level attacks. If you think of them as raw power as you said it makes sense. I was picturing it more as indicator of speed, which read different.

I was looking at this yesterday while noodling through some game math from other rule systems. But if you put it into the context of the character profiles in the book then only the big important named heroes have multiple dice to roll and it mostly coincides with 5 or higher fight values.
So there is another layer of design over the odds that nudges it into the right direction. And as the other Anon also pointed out the heroes get to fudge some numbers with Might. There is odds, unit profiles and a safety net that makes heroes act like heroes.

In isolation it looked more arbitrary than it is.

Way too lean for the underhive.
The underhive is a thousands of years old pile of rubble under the true structural base of the actual hive, it is the ruined and decayed remains of the city that once existed before the emperor had the hive plunked on top of it, it shouldn't be neat or clean or even made with GW terrain kits because mechanicus/mortalis/imperialis represent Imperium STC construction.

After decades of farting about with various TTRPGs, I've come to the realization that the vast majority of TTRPG fans spend most of their time just talking about the games instead of actually playing them.
>>
Okay. Why was this worth making a thread for?
>>
>>96759108
Sure. My current game's biweekly, and I do like to think and talk about RPGs more than once every other week.
>>
>>96759108
Most people only spend 4-6 hours a week doing tabletop gaming which leaves a significantly larger amount of time to od other things including talking about games.

I assume it's because they had loads of salvage from wrecked ISDs, as well as the former Imperial shipyards geared towards producing ISDs, but for political reasons building the NR navy around ISDs with a new coat of paint wouldn't look good. So they figured how to use the existing components and production facilities to build a new ship class.
Presumably over time they would have retooled the ISD component production lines and phased out the Starhawk in favor of a class designed from ground up to NR use, but it would make a good stopgap design.

For those desperate for players or those desperate enough to join a game post your TTRPGs. If you're looking for players, give a brief description of your game and/or edition as well as your setting, how many players you're looking for, your time zone, the days you play, and whether you use Roll20 or any other website. Finally, post a way for them to contact you and give an update when you're no longer looking for players.

It is up to the GM's discretion to interview and choose what people they let in or not so don't be surprised and start going off about

>" oh an anon here was a whinny little faggot"

or

>" oh anon was a sperg "

it is up to YOU to interview and talk to them you get the last say and who enters your game group either you'll actually find some worthwhile people here or the thread will just be archived

Bully! My favorite part of Homebrew!

>Have a sense for what is good/evil
In my campaign, all those who want to defend the weak are good, while all those willing to take from or consume the weak are evil

>Balance
You have to have balance, this includes a neutral god able to tip the scales when they get out of whack, even if the problem is too much lawful good.

>Demigods
The main gods should be above mortals, focused on keeping the multiverse together, while lesser gods are the ones that travel the land and grant powers to adventurers.

>Numbers
I have one major god per alignment, as well as three lesser gods to each, who in turn have clerics, druids, pals, and warlocks.

I'll just detail my Neutral Evil Gods:

>Kaelin, Devil of Consumption
Basically just a representation of eating the weak and developing your own strength. Will eat and eat, he's a bear like figure that is always hungry. Followers will wear tattered hoods and hunt in his woods to gain his favor.

>Ocha, Omen of Beasts
This is the lesser goddess of Instinct and Wisdom, making sure the woods are respected and talking to animals, although she advocates for carnivores to eat the weak. She was originally a wolf in the greater god's pack, he raised her because of how talented she was at Instinct.

>Vora, Pathos of Decay
The lesser goddess of Necrosis and Decay, was a lion dying on a hill after a fight with a poisonous spider, selected to embody the end of animals' life cycles.

>Fenrath, Dire Wolf
Major god of Consumption and Necrosis. He was born when the first peaceful creature ate another, embodying the pure urge to consume the weak. He represents Evil, taking from the weak in my world. His enemies wish to stop him, but my Neutral gods will defend him, and they have the most power.

>>96758218
NE is based on consumption of innocent life. The NG counterparts are typically tree or plant based, often growing large gardens and healing sick animals.

LG is often creating things and is the pantheon of most kings.

CE is the wanton destruction of all things, especially things with order and logic.

Neutral is the pantheon of balance, often tipping the scale when need be, understanding that without evil, good wouldn't be a thing either, but never allowing evil to consume too much.

LE is mainly demons who focus on making deals for souls. This major god is the master of "Hell" for lack of a better term. All evil souls or those that have made deals, go to him in the end, often not torture, just a worse existence than heaven.

CG is the pantheon of the Muses. They are crafted from unique instruments and control the idea of "Heaven." In all, they try to free souls from their contracts at all times.

LN is the judge of the universe. He is given as much power as the founding god, only when seeing over a trial with two other gods as those involved. He is completely fair and his lesser gods are all forms of robots.
