>>96775022Some just like to hear themselves whine. Especially those who dont play and come into this general.Been playing the game for a long time, once you understand the flow, rules, and general knowledge you can set up, play, and take down a game in about 4 hours.With table chatter my group gets a game in around 4-5hours.
>>96774482do your home work kinda thing
My games usually take around two hours plus setup and teardown
>>96776202Setup and teardown sucks... If only everyone else were fine with us leaving the tables as is.
>>96779310my local allows us to use his terrain and he even just leaves the terrain on a table for us to set
The coolest elf thread for cool elfthusiasts.Any system, setting, art or homebrew welcome (especially white collar related).
>>96777996>OOCWe had two shopping sessions since I was the only one actually writing things down on what to buy/look for so the the table took almost entire first shopping session figuring out their shopping list and then again half of our next session. We also might lose the Frost player since she is too busy but she is too attached to the character and I'm afraid she won't give him a proper sendoff/ending. The player who played John the Halfling returned and he pulled out his first character (Bard) and he was able to fit in the story with the DM since last time he played his Bard, we were not in Hell. Our Amy player has also been slacking. He doesn't tell us in time if he's gonna make it to session or not, always gives off some bitch excuses such as "I'm tired" and "Ah...i saw the message too late and I scheduled with my other D&D table for that evening". He already complained that Amy seems to simple and boring as a character but I'd say he is just bad at RPing. Amy is awesome PC with tons of reasons and plot hooks to shape out her character.>In characterWithout a shred of ego I claim that right now, Arrianna is the current MVP>Since John is gone, she is the party's scout, info gatherer/library for anything not related to arcane and magic.>Her survival skills are ever useful as she is able to spot ambush spots and track goons>She is the only one pushing the party to acquire loot and convert said loot into high value gold due to her merchant profession and/or high diplomacy>The party has started noticing and now she is actually getting some respect for the amount of work she does.>She is clean, straight and is even cooking again for the party>She also started casting more utilitarian magic (I actually forgot because I only use one spell)Last session her actions were actually commended by Ferris because someone finally noticed that without her, party wouldn't have the magic items collectively worth 27.000 gold of which Arrianne contributed 26.800

What genre is not well represented? What kind of activities in session just don't have a good rules set? What kind of game would excite you that you think isn't available?
>>96771383I've had good experience using Outgunned and Savage Worlds for spy shit.
>>96778253Yeah, the golden age of dense source books was the 90s and it's all but over now.They seem to be replaced by random table books.
>>96770920The only things that are "missing from TTRPGs" are the things you don't make them with, because you can make whatever you want for TTRPGs, especially fantasy games.
>>96776998Ryuutama.
>>96770920Every few months I see an "Ace Combat RPG" thread pop up, with people asking what is available. On one hand, there are air combat wargames that people have added RPG layers to (and then never share their houserules where people can find them). On the other, there are RPGs that focus on WW1, or dieselpunk 1930's/40's, or Cold War aircraft and pilots.What people seem to be craving is a game that strikes the middle ground, and does for air combat what Battle Century and Lancer did for mecha.>>96772950>>96774029>BattleTech but as a TTRPGThe problem with Mechwarrior is that only 3rd edition (a.k.a. Classic BattleTech RPG) had RPG rules for the mech fights, as opposed to "play the wargame." Oh, and I guess MW: Destiny can do that, but in my opinion that game is far too rules-lite for the purpose.>UC GundamBest would be Jovian Chronicles, which is, yes, quite old at this point. More modern takes are Armour Astir (example setting is fantasy, but works fine for sci-fi) and Beam Saber. Both of those lean into the personal drama between pilots, and eschew the wargame roots of Jovian Chronicles.
Previous thread>>96745548>What is /awg/?A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks, or peoples' homebrew wargames.The >>>/tg/hwg thread doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to more specific games.This thread isn't tied to a game, a publisher, or a genre, let's just talk about fun wargames. Any scale, any company, any miniatures.>Examples of games that qualify.A Song of Ice and Fire, Argatoria, Batman Miniature Game, Carnevale, Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings,Deadzone, Dropfleet and Dropzone Commander, Freebooter's Fate, Frostgrave, Gaslands, Judge Dredd, HeroClix,Kings of War, Maelstrom's Edge, Malifaux, Marvel Crisis Protocol, Masters of the Universe: Battleground, Moonstone,Billhooks: Fantasia, OnePageRules, RelicBlade, Rumbleslam, Stargrave, Sludge, Urban War, Void, Warcaster, Warmachine, Xenotactics, Xenos Rampant......and anything else that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread.Comment too long.

>>96778625I have that same exact palette.....Looks good even though I dont much care for the turnip28 style.
>>96774530Oathmark Orcs and Goblin ranges and the Goblin Warband from WGA remind me of a lot of the old art, the Goblin Warband being a dead ringer for some of Angus McBride's art.
>>96778961Yeah I like the 10mm orcs from WGA, it's a shame most of their 10mm lines have been absolute.shit so far with ridiculously bad quality control. The skellies are cool though
>>96779153I meant their 28mm scale Goblin Warband, but they're both based off the same aesthetic.
>>96779182Oh yeah I do like the Angus McBride style, even if it's shameless plagiarism. I hate that they made them all have that stupid wide squat pose because they were too lazy to make separate infantry and mounted sculpts
Thread title, I had to kick a player who couldn't stop being gay.At the very start of the campaign, I went "Look, romance only leads to drama, I'm not having that stuff at my table, okay?" Now, I meant the PCs hitting on female NPCs, but the one gay player kept hitting on the party's questgiver, a Duke.I told him OOC to cut that shit out, but he insisted that it was essential to his characterization, and accused me on being homophobic.I assured him that yes, I find faggots disgusting, and booted him.You'd think that he could just turn that shit off for a few hours each week, but he couldn't even manage that.

It's crazy how much better real sable brushes are than even quality synthetics.
>>96779033There's even quality differences between the sables. I just wish I could find out why the tips on all mine lose their sharpness after a couple projects.
>>96779210Do you let paint creep up in the ferrule? Cause that is how you ruin any brush.
>>96779299Nope. I baby the fuck out of them. It's not the bristles splaying. It's the bristles literally wearing down and losing length.

>>96778940It seems that Alchemicals and Sidereals have Charms that are recognized as things, according to a specific call-out paragraph, while most other Exalted printed lack this note. So for Solars and Solar accessories aka the Abyssals and Infernals, no Charms. For Lunars, no Charms.
>>96778479>>96778597>>96778616Most of these are powers demonstrated by manses (redirecting elemental phenomena, powering cities, creating weaponry, redirecting dragon lines), and some of these complaints are you missing things while skimming; I specifically want to call out the Thousand Elixirs Crucible bit because you missed, in the single sentence describing it, that it draws its base materials from nutrient conduits. Its not making things out of nothing, its doing chemical synthesis with preexisting compounds.I don't really get the focus on "individual charm potency", to be frank, especially considering the limitations of Municipal charms (makes the Alchemical permanently sessile, requires tons of mortal manpower to operate, requires constant resource intake to maintain) that are more of a drawback and something to plan around than a Solar's high level charms.
>>96779090Yes, these two are the exception.Despite knowing that it was a reaction to 2e, and 2 of its functions, I still don't understand this bit of design.
>>96779128If I'm remembering this clearly, a lot of people considered Charms to somehow be separate from the character, as opposed to a capability that they developed as a demigod. Basically, they're supposed to be as integral as Attributes, Abilities, or chargen purchase-only merits.
My dick is more powerful than any municipal charms.
Thread title.It's a pain in the ass occasionally, but I calculate DEX Armor Class different from 'armored' Armor Class, so I can tell players if they dodge an attack or if it's stopped by their armor (I used to keep track of shield AC too, but fuck that.)For fighters, I usually say that every one in three attacks are parried by them instead.When super-strength is a thing, I try to describe (harmless) collateral damage as much as possible. I have had players in superhero games who are simply flying bricks, and it makes them feel like they're having a more tangible effect on their surroundings.Also, I randomly flavor the attacks of big, strong foes as picking up shit and hitting people with it.If a PC kills an important foe, I tell him to describe the Mortal Kombat-style deathblow i.e. At 0 HP you abruptly become made of putty.
>>96772481Because it's fun, Lois
>>96777326Take it upon yourself to set the scene and paint a picture of what's happening. Instead of:>"I attack Bandit #1.">"Okay, roll to hit.">"24. He takes 9 bludgeoning damage.">"Okay. Chuck, your turn."Try:>"I attack Bandit #1.">"You make a swing towards the bandit, and...">"24. He takes 9 bludgeoning damage.">"The bandit winces in pain as your mace pushes past his attempt to block you and lands at his sternum with a cracking sound.

Welcome to the Mork Borg General, where we discuss the good, the bad, and the really ugly about the Mork Borg system. This includes the base games and community-driven content.>Thread Question:Some consider CY_BORG a much better system than the original Mork Borg proper. Do you agree with this? If so, why? How does it compare to other Cyberpunk ttrpgs?
>>96775784Yeah it is, seriously. I've considered trying out some of the naval combat in it. I'm not big on pirate stuff, but it seems to be a really solid mix of stuff.
>>96775256Wow, actually trying to force a General. How stunning and brave.Fuck off outta here.
>>96775945>I've considered trying out some of the naval combat in itpost rules as pics pls
>>96775256Maybe post some links to the PDFs, if this is truly a General?
>>96775320Let's see if they finally talk shop ITT like >>96775273 is trying to, or if only the nogames shills show up like in the last one.
What game has the best dark elves?
>>96749370
>>96749388
>>96764722>That's like saying Dwarfs and Elves were made by Tolkien. He only made Orcs.Naeh he made dwarves and elves as well in any real sense and his creations are what all fantasy base their elves and dwarves on, not the norse sagas.
>>96749370Dunmer>Eldakkar>Druchi>Drow(Gygax)>Blood Elf(Warcraft)>Drow(Early Greenwood x Salvatore)>Drow(Modern)Platonic ideal of dark elf for me is fair skin and leaning to dark hair, like Druchi, I think the culture is too over the top though.I think it's interesting that Greenwood was actually gonna go with human like fair skin for his forgotten realms dark elves, so they could blend in with moon elves and infiltrate them, but ended up making just a version of Drow to conform to Gygax's d&d conventions.

>>96774558Absolutely going to happen if/when they notice the table with thaisha in it is getting noticably lower views than the others.
>>96778722Nah, the Melty/Marisha table is going to get the least views simply because it sounds boring as fuck. They overestimate how much people want to see local political intrigue in their actual plays.
>>96778261Evil rich white families oppressing poor orc communities, plus a corrupt fake church. Oh and someone is collecting items that might be used to transport people to the various culture's afterlife.At least that's the plot so far, it will probably explode out to some world threatening bullshit eventually. Maybe the angel will escape and go tear open a portal to the primordial realm.
>>96772863So Brennan is doing LOTR but with three groups instead of two.
If you can't describe your character without mentioning their race/class, you're not playing a character.And that's okay, but it's good to be aware of
>>96767412A character who has been abused and lived in fear throughout most of its life. An ingrained trauma to help itself survive. A character who has build and entire rational and moral framework to keep itself sane, rationalize itself, the things it has experience, and to justify the things it has done to survive. It has built an imposing and constraining emotional damn to never feel vulnerable again. A constant tug-of-war. A conflicting desire for intimacy and a fear of getting too close.
>>96774221I wish this was true.Instead, we just have low effort shitposts in OP and then inane """""discussion""""" dragged by bumpfag for 2-5 weeks
>>96767412For years this has actually been one of my rules of character creation. The other being>Tell me who your character is>WITHOUT mentioning any events or people.Some people freeze on it but I want my players to have a clear idea of their character's identity that doesn't revolve around wanting revenge against the bandits that killed their parents or being angry at injustice because they were born a half-elf.>>96768080This is perfect. Exactly what I want from people.
>>96773804>Man who feels he needs to hide his true nature from those around him and goes to great efforts to blend in and avoid attracting attention by acting as generic and ordinary as possible.>Likely had an abusive upbringing leading to a heavily avoidant personality.>Inexperienced in genuine human relationships as all of his have been for show, and kept at arm's length.>Has so few opportunities to express his true nature that he relishes in the opportunity to show someone his true self.>Fiercely intelligent, detail oriented, and meticulous, but prone to becoming overemotional and allowing his heightened feelings to affect his judgement.>Displays signs of obsessive-compulsive behavior and urges, and in some cases these urges manifest as hallucinations of his fingernails growing.>Tends to become attached to objects to the extent of anthropomorphizing them.
>>96778706Besides>manifest as hallucinations of his fingernails growing.You described how every "above average intelligence" millenial sees themselves.
