I imagine it's having the players actually pick a direction to begin with. Obviously you don't want to interfere with the players' decision making process, but there does come a point where caution and preparation becomes indecision and fear of commitment, and a proper GM knows when to signal the players they need to do something if they aren't actively trying to suss out more information to make a better decision.

Here are all the major problems with it IMO.

>Blue has too much utility. Resting, bouncing, ping, card draw, repair.
>Blue and White have the best commands in the game to control the board and have a bigger impact than the red and green commands.
>Kira and Amuro give a huge advantage in combat when persistent damage is supposed to be a thing.
>High Maneuver is too exclusive.
>There is so much Ping that it makes anything with 1 HP worthless and makes go wide tokens horrible.
>Green Tutors are restrictive and can whiff, which makes them worse than card draw.
>Support should be able to be used during the action phase and not be exclusive to main.

Really just out shinned in every way by other cards. 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.

Welcome to the 4Chan /g/ usenet group Thread! Now appearing on /tg/.

>What is /usenet/?
Open protocols still exist and are what the internet was built on (http, irc, rss, ftp, etc). Not owned by corpos, not under govt control, and are accessible to anyone with an internet connection. They simply exist to be built upon and enjoyed by all.

Join and discuss such topics as usenet, or topics like TTRPGS, WH40K, and STUFF.

>WTF IS USENET
Literally it means the Users Network. It’s an open protocol for posting and reading messages, organized by newsgroups. It's entirely decentralized, no single server, impossible to take down.

Today it is split between, binaries and text. The binaries part is what it’s known for today: piracy. The text part is forgotten and abandoned (except for that one guy in alt.tv...), until now.

>WHY POST ON USENET
Its open protocol, you can use any client you want or build you own. No costs, no subscriptions, no money. You can sign up through your ISP or burner email address. Then you just need to install a client.

>Have Drow faction in my DnD homebrew
>Want them somewhat familiar to new players yet being different
Is this even possible? My setting is an Age of Sail world where all the elemental and other planes of existence are forced into the Material Plane and the Drow ended up in a caldera out at sea where they hastily had their spiders shit out a ton of webbing to create a canopy of webs that block out the sun. Lolth has gone silent and they aren't sure what to do now.
>>
>>96766545
The Lolth-autism is already an unfortunate big part of the D&D-like drow idea. Makes these drow about finding their own meaning and place in this world without this goddess, including internal strife and warring factions with different viewpoints. Some may want to uphold the matriarchy, while others realize that the women are far less powerful without the bitch backing them up. Some may even be not outright evil and more willing to cooperate with other races.
>>
>>96766569
I think diplomacy and trade are going to be interesting; previously they could raid the material plane nations and scamper back to the Underdark knowing they were safe; now they are only a mere boat ride distance from their wary neighbors.
>>
>>96766545
Naturally, they should make magical submarines. Trade underground for underwater, and keep raiding the surface.

Maybe instead of Lolth they discover a kraken or whatever, priesthood claim that's Lolth avatar, and they worship that, pretending Lolth is still behind them.

Xps is durable enough that if you handle it with basic care it won't break. You can dent it with dice and minatures but you'd really have to drop some heavy dice or minatures on them to ruin a piece.
Xps is the best option IMO it cuts easily with a knife, better with a hot knife cutter (but you'll need a vented room + face mask with filter to be safe. Everyone says its perfectly fine to breath in the fumes but I don't trust anyone on this)
Non acidic glue (PVA or modge podge) and black paint+water is what I use to seal and prime my pink foam for painting. It creates a protective layer that will keep it safe in normal play situations. Water will react with the glue though so be careful with that.
The terrain tutor on YouTube taught me alot when I was first getting into building. Just know your first few projects will look bad until you pick up the skills and techniques. Like everything practice makes perfect!

I never write my roleplays in a novelistic style.
My logs are always more like a list of actions and effects with most of the creative stuff being held in my head.
Ironsworn systems are ofc an exception but I don't think they lead to writing that would actually be good in a novel. Too much constant fucking up, you'd end up with one of those annoying stories where a protagonist can't walk between towns without it being an ordeal.
And even there every 2nd/3rd line in my notes is stuff like "Action 3, Challenge 7 3 Burn momentum Weak Hit" so it's not exactly great reading.

As long as I've got a weakness that does show up from time-to-time, be it a stat, a flaw like Shadowrun's Codes of Honor (God I loved that one) and remain mechanically viable / can contribute meaningfully, I'm golden.

Honestly I'm tired of muh eldritch cults and the lovecraftian mythos in horror. No one is genuinely scared or creeped out by them. People may gloat about how much of an intellectual idea cosmic horror is; being overwhelmed by the vastness of the universe and feeling powerless, blah blah blah.

Satanic cabals, witch covens and pagan cults do give people the creeps. Voodoo dolls, human sacrifices, blood rituals, hidden groves with celtic ruins, secret societies, actual ghosts and demons instead of otherworldly beings who don't give a shit about mankind. Horns and blood scare people more than tentacles and ooze.

Not a single one of them is. Where did you even get that from? What is scary about "not being at the top of the food chain" in space and hwo does that translate into gaming at the table? Witches, demons and pagan cults with minor deities are localized insidious threats as opposed to cosmic entities who most of the time mind their own business.

Just because the deities of the Mythos don't care about humans doesn't mean humans can't run into them and be immensely harmed in their wake.
Hell, one of the two starter scenarios the Call of Cthulhu rulebook gives you directly involves a Great Old One, Gla'aki, who makes an appearance at the scenario's end point and can start swatting the player characters down like bugs. And, I mean, the original "The Call of Cthulhu" story itself ends with a chase scene as sailors flee an awakening Cthulhu lest he crush them to death or feast on them as his morning snack.
A problem with a lot of pastiches of Lovecraft's works is that they're afraid to use the gods or involve them, which just isn't Lovecraftian. In the original works, the gods showed up or interacted with the characters all the time. They just largely didn't care, acting out their grander, more terrible functions, and the harm they cause is simply because they're too powerful and beyond us to want to be careful about us. A wayward flick of their wrist can destroy our entire civilization and they wouldn't notice.

How do you insert Pathfinders in btech? I assume you drop them in way in advance of the raid on the far from where a garrison would patrol. But the locals are gonna know something is up.
