Even if there is some kind of tech involving bouncing a card and then discarding it for a cost there are cards like Tiril Dawnrider, Karina of Silvermoon, Knife Throw, and Corki's Ransom which all actually can do things faster.
is Riftbound any good
>>96765678>>96766629It's because they're treating gundam like its in a vacuum and that there's no other TCG's people can playWe don't need to launch with the first entire year of support being dogshit anymore, just play OP, Digimon, or even Riftbound because that set 1 isn't dogshit.We don't have to settle for a shit game because it says gundam on it, especially because Bandai games have shit flavoring anyways

Holy shit, after many years I finally found a group. We'll be playing Edge of the Empire, and I need a character.I'm thinking about an antique sith training droid, but I have my doubts regarding the long term fun I'll have with it. Does anyone have experience with playing droids? How do you flesh them out, beyond their primary functions? If the game starts with "You all meet in a cantina", where would you find it?
>>96766194Pick an era, there are so many books it's just best to pick at what timeline you're interested in. Want to see Luke and the gang continue their adventures? Look up the thrawn trilogy. (Generic answer i know but it really is a good primer.)
>>96766555What's the premise for the game?
>>96767335The only things I know so far is that it's taking place after episode VI in the fringes of the former empire, where criminals, warlords, and other elements of the underworld see the opportunity to claim power. We'll be using legends canon.
>>96766555>>96767409The FFG books are also built around the legends canon and give good advice on playing a droid PC. First you must decide: Am I a sentient droid or a non-sentient droid. >A non-sentient droid will follow its programming, they still have personalities but aren't allowed to deviate from what they're told. You're basically playing an asimov robot with a preprogrammed set of beliefs and traits.>A sentient droid is by all intents a person. However they are widely illegal, it is by law that droids must be regularly wiped so they don't become sentient. IG-88 is an example of a sentient droid that hated organics.Obligation is the main way you flesh out your character in Edge of the Empire. It's a mechanic where every session the GM randomly rolls a die to see whose obligation has to come into play this session. Usually it is an element of your backstory: a cartel you betrayed, an addiction you have, an oath you have taken. Obligations can be completed and gained mid campaign, but its important to think about what your droid is dealing with that will define them as a unique character.In my campaign I have two sentient droid PCs. One that is a battle droid who has slowly gone schizo, the other is an escaped drug formulation bot for the Pykes who has taken on the mission of liberating droid kind. Two very different characters despite both being droids working for freedom from their past owners due to the nature of their obligations.Perhaps a sith training bot has an addiction to high stake fights, or your programming is somewhat twisted by sith corruption. Just think on if you're sentient, and what your obligation may be.
Has your party ever had an session where, you know, you just shoot the shit.'The Sea Wyvern's Wake' was basically an extended travel session, even if it did have a lot to do.
>>96759453>>96766420>our characters were fundamentally incompatible with each other.The fuck is this even supposed to mean? Other than some newfag shit it tune of "oh woe me, we didn't have a single, unified goal across the party".This is literally the whole fucking point of playing those games. If you have entire party that's single-minded and driven toward a single goal, you might unironically just play a cRPG.
>>96766583Seems self-explanatory to me>Elf: I fight for my tree>Dwarf: I fight for fuel to burn elf trees>Orc: I fight for strength to defeat dwarves>Human: I fight to get revenge on all orcs because they killed my parents>Halfling: I hate fighting>Gnome: Once I have enough cash I am funding a project to genocide halflings.Unless you're lobotomising your character to get along there's no getting along.
>>96759434I feel like "what does your character do when they have nothing to do?" is an interesting question that more players should explore, but it's not something to fill an entire session with.
>>96759434Way too many. My table tends to just not get shit done and go on tangents and discuss bullshit. It's fucking annoying. I like them but holy shit last session we only had a combat encounter, start to finish, and we didn't even finish the fucming combat encounter. WE SPENT LIKE 5 HOURS ON HALF AN ENCOUNTER.
>>96759434Yes but I find them very annoying. As both a player and GM, I prefer to have at least 1 fight every session, even if it's just a minor scrape.I ran 19 games of Pathfinder 2e for My group back in 2023 and in that time, they only ever had 3 fights. 1 of those barely counts because was just them killing a player who was an asshole that we were kicking out of the group anyway. The others were a single low-level monster and a group of thugs.As a player, I tend to go out of My way to find bad guys to beat up, whether they're in the back alleys of a city or deep in a dungeon.>>96760528>I just want something to happen, eventually, please
I have been trying to make a low-powered Magic cube and would like to include some cards which were originally printed in old frame. Any interesting picks besides the most well-known cards?

>>96766825KWAB
>>96766775mugen on couch surrounded by buff black royal knights.jpeg
>>96747219I think the Dark Animal engine is massively overhyped as a generic purple bottom end. It's only ever really found success with Levia and Anubis. Anubis is a fundamentally broken card, and Levia just has really particular characteristics that make it particularly good with Dark Animal. Biting Crush gives you something to do in case your shitty stack gets outed, and Levia X turns the level 5 you've got sitting on the board into an actual threat.There's a reason why no other top-end has ever found any meta relevance with Dark Animals. The typical scenario with DA is that you move your stack out early and waffle around with little draw-discard effects and psychemons and hope that slows the opponent down a bit. It isn't a strategy that works well with any other top-end.
>>96768125LordKnightmon used it too but that didn't last as long as Levia. And for whatever reason, Biting Crush hasn't actually been seeing play in the top builds anymore.
How would you do a fishing minigame in tabletop?No, seriously. Have you ever tried to put in a mini game into your tabletop game where it's just mostly there for the players to engage and relax in whenever they feel like it? I'm not sure if there's a way to do this, and I'm wondering if this is a strange artifact of tabletop being inferior to video games, or if I'm just not clever enough to think of it.
>>96764710I can see it be done in a fun quick mini-game type of game while other people are doing things. Like say someone spending time crafting weapons, brewing potions, hunting, cooking, etc.
>>96765010If it's just a quirky way to resolve a specific task then maybe. But players aren't characters, so crafting and the like needn't be time consuming for the former just because it is for the latter. And if they're spending time looking through rule books making decisions they might as well do it at home on their own rather than making everyone else find ways to amuse themselves while they wait.
>>96765010>I can see it be done in a fun quick mini-game type of game while other people are doing things.I guess it is not too dissimilar from giving the players encrypted text or some kind of dungeon puzzle.That said, I would argue even that is usually bad idea. It is different game than what we came here to play, and it is not guaranteed the players will enjoy it. It is also hard to calibrate difficulty of these things.So, in my opinion, the negatives overweight the good. Might work okay if you tailor these challenges to your players, but it is not universally good idea.
Why would you want to put a mini game inside a ttgame?Mini games in vidya are specifically designed to increase play time (waste time) to increase value of the game to consumers. Some do it better than others but thats the intention behind mini games. There's no reason to want to pad out play time in a TT game with a mini game considering the rulebook probably already has rules for any kind of thing youd already want to do.
>>96764710When you have adult players with functioning attention spans you don't have to worry as much about keeping everyone constantly stimulated and engaged all at once. It's ok for one or two players to be doing something and another two to not, for some few minutes.
I have been interested in oozes/slimes as of late. They appear as a monster type in D&D, Path/Starfinder, 13th Age, Draw Steel (in the starter adventure and Patreon bonus content), and Daggerheart, among other games.Exotic and high-level ooze monsters include living spells in D&D; teratomorphs in D&D 3.0; astral renders in D&D 4e; blobs of annihilation in D&D 5e; mezlans, immortal ichors, and blights in Pathfinder; riftcreepers and oblivions in Pathfinder 1e; living apocalypses and cerebrexes in Starfinder 1e; and gray goos and plasma oozes in Path/Starfinder 1e. Shoggoths could count as oozes, and they appear as such in Pathfinder 1e.Named ooze antagonists include Juiblex, Ghaunadaur, and Turaglas in D&D; the daelkyr Kyrzin in Eberron; the Voidharrow in D&D 4e; and Vorgozen and the suspiciously named Jubilex in Pathfinder 1e.There are ooze-themed PC options every now and then, such as the oozemaster and slime lord prestige classes in D&D 3.X, the ooze master theme in D&D 4e, the plasmoid species in D&D 5e, the alchemist (oozemaster) and shifter (oozemorph) archetypes in Pathfinder 1e, the Oozemorph archetype in Pathfinder 2e, and the entu colony and selamid races in Starfinder 1e. I observed that an ooze race was popular in third-party Pathfinder 1e material, such as Alluria Publishing's squole and Dreamscarred Press's atstreidi and coreid; I once played alongside someone playing a coreid psionicist at 17th level.The only dedicated ooze-themed adventure I know of is The Slithering in Pathfinder 2e. I believe it was poorly received, as its mechanics were questionable and frustrating: particularly the focus on oozes and incorporeals, whose precision damage immunity is unfun for several classes.While it is common to see demons, devils, dragons, or undead as campaign-wide enemies, it is much rarer to see oozes in such a role. Perhaps intelligent oozes could be portrayed similarly to the Klyntar?What are your favorite portrayals of oozes in tabletop RPGs?
>>96766181>A fun fact is that they have a rather intelligent variant.[desire to know more intensifies]What system, and how intelligent? Also, what, uh… race, I guess, if that makes sense?I mean, how the hell DO you play as a mimic in, I'm assuming, a mixed race party?I can picture pranking the everloving fuck out of the party, but what about the actual adventure?Do they just… lug it around like a regular chest, or does it grow legs?
>>96766445NTA but I know in PF1e they have 10 Int, and are aberrations with an innate belief they will one day become humans. Those which attempt to fo so however find the limitations of their mimicry (objects only) leave them turned into a Thing style jumble of limbs, organs and teeth, an experience that drives them mad with grief and anger, their utterly alien and inhuman nature no longer deniable, resulting in a Failed-Apotheosis Mimic.I once played a mimic PC who didn't really knowehatwas up with the stories about "trying to become human before your time" but decided it was safer to just copy statues and eventually get an amulet of Alter Self.
>>96597710We had a PC over several campaigns who first turned into a slime and then got progressively larger and more dangerous, until she couldn't function as a PC anymore, and now is a existential setting-threat. Good stuff!
>>96767160I would've thought something like life-sized dolls, ball-in-socket mannequins, and so on.Is it a Thing-type? It is. Can you "carve" a likeness of a human into it? You sure can.Failure of imagination on their part, a successful limitation bypass on yours. Nice job anon.Also, what's it like playing a mimic anyway? How did it go about it's day, I mean?I'm struggling to imagine anything that *isn't* a many-legged trunk with yawning maw like in the pic above.I'm used to the idea of mimics being ambush hunters, sitting in one spot until some hapless fool falls for their camouflage.…that doesn't sound thrilling when it's your PC and it's not a timeskip style of playing that feels akin to fishing.
>>96766445The system is D&D and there were two variants>larger, less intelligent and more aggressive>smaller, more intelligent and even capable of speachIIRC the larger ones were more common.There are several very good mimic videos on Youtube, specially by MrRhexx, AJ Pickett and Jorphdan.While I did not think of mimics as a playable race, there certainly are possibilities to homebrew one or just play one as is with the DMs approval.Canonically mimics can't imitate living beings, which is a very cool creative hook both for creativity and for roleplaying.Their transformation is more biological than magical in that their amorphous skin changes texture, excretes pigments and liquids and shapes itself around the 'muscles' of the creature so as to look like an object.I have an NPC mimic in the back of my mind, one of the smarter types that found a Cauldron of Plenty wondrous item and grew in size and power over the ages, eventually needing much more food than the item could produce, but by then other means of nourishment were sought, like raising large fungal farms to provide enough calories.>it became one of the big players, dealing with politics, power and fortunes among the most powerful beings in the Multiverse>currently residing in the plane of Ysgard where people get resurrected the next day if fallen, in a huge arena where willing epic creatures such as PCs who have been level 20 for a while try their best against each other in a battle royale that happens a few times per century when the arena manifests there>epic arena extraordinarily alters the battlefield every round, like scenario and objectsComment too long.
