Didn't see a thread for it, I'm starting a Weird Wizard campaign in a few days so figured it could use one instead of "Is coffee good for you?" posting that makes up 60% of the board now. Of the non-human and human++ options available in Weird Ancestries, which ones are most interesting or mechanically worth taking the alternative Novice path for? Personally I like Daeva as an idea, being a glorified Stand user with a dedicated summon living in your head is nice and means you don't have to wait a long time for a specific expert or master class if you wanna be a "pet class"
>>97094974The difficulty scale averages didn't change. The sweet spot is not going to be the same at any table and will always require you knowing the game.

D8 and lower got their health reduced>Somehow, the game managed to make Ruffian even MORE useless, since it's ability to double BBD against targets inflicted with fear (basically nothing D16+ due to immunities) ends up being meaningless when shit dies in a single hit regardlessJust scrap the Master Path at this point, jfc.
>>97096254Less than half of stuff 16+ is gonna be immune to frightened under the new rules, but even then if you're only relying on frightened for the ruffian you're doing something wrong. Ruffian (potentially) gets a nice spike from frightened at 10 but really does the most good when there are lots of afflictions about.

I contend that based on mechanics, ease of use and adaptation, ease of modification (though I would stick to Pondsmith's version as much as possible as it's just about perfect), it's rules being shown as accurate to real life firefights in a study done recently and the fact that it's modular and can be dropped right in and used in ANY tabletop game with firearms: that R. Talsorian Games/Mike Pondsmith have created the GREATEST tabletop system for gun fights in the history of TTRPGs.Thoughts? If you disagree I'd love to hear why or if you agree please post why. Let's get a discussion going on this stellar and very unique combat system and frankly, game overall itself.
>>97092952Congratulations. You've just invented Shadowrun's Stun/Physical damage system.
>>97090342tbf there is one recorded case of it, but it's such an extreme outlier of a situation that it isn't really worth considering.
>>97093190Okay yeah, that's kind of getting into the "comical amounts of backface" I'm thinking of. You ever see one of those guntubers shoot like a IIIa vest with a 12 gauge slug or .500 magnum or something and the whole thing gets spaghettified?
>>97093706comical amounts of blackface
>>97093190.45-70 isn't featured in NIJ standards. Armor deformation is also one reason why armored clothing isn't a thing. Even if a special fabric was to stop bullets, there would be nothing to prevent the clothes from being pushed inside the body as they're loose.

>>97092594Ok, name 1 franchise that has been going for more than 40 years with absolutely nothing "Absolutely fucking stupid" ever happening?Also, let's face facts, plenty of retarded shit happened in Star Wars long before Disney got anywhere near it. Lest we forget that Dark Horse comic with:>Obi Wan: "Master Qui, why aren't Jedi allowed to love?">Qui Gon: "Well, Obi-Wan. Once upon a time, there was a planet with a beautiful princess. Then, a pair of Jedi fell in love with her. And they had a fight. And to make a whole long story short, the planet blew up... The end."
>>97096828Let's not forget, RoS's "Somehow Palpatine returned" wasn't the first "Somehow Palpatine returned."A lot of people seem determined to delude themselves into thinking the Dark Empire comics were good, or at least passable. They're not. I love Cam Kennedy's art. It's very cool and evocative. But it doesn't make up for the god-awful writing that's only just barely above RoS.
>>97098083Nobody believes any such thing, they're simply easy to ignore because later material only references them obliquely, and so nobody cares that they sucked balls no matter how much seething rancid Disnoid mousecucks screech and piss and shit and cry that we have to.

>>97097405Unwieldy range weapon never stated to need 2 handed to fire, that was for melee.

Either way, kindly eat a bag of broken glass.
>>97095279Completely agree with removing named characters. Unless its something specific and unique like argel tal where they just arent represented in the normal options, we should just run them as centurions/ praetors or whatever. this should come with the caveat that the generic centurions should have way more variety in wargear than 3.0 currently has
>>97098283What more wargear would they need, they can already take pretty much every melee weapon, pistol, and combi weapon available to marines.

I am excited and holding back from looking at Gothic spoilers.

>>97098108With the help of any human female off the street I can make a bipedal learning machine with proficient use of hands that will certainly outperform any LLM on reasoning and power efficiency in 9 months or so. I can't use the same female to make a heavy industrial tracked machine that can safely self-navigate a worksite, move several hundred lbs with its arms, and also be teleoperated from anywhere in the world in the same time.
>>97098091No matter the circumstance, people are going to want to engage at a distance when able. First it with polearms, then bows, then guns, then cannons and so on and so forth.

Excluding Korra likely wasn't done out of respect for ATLA, but for the money.Star Trek I see as far less likely to see a return to, the stocks of this franchise are not high right now, and it's a poor fit for MtG (not that that's really a factor). They're likely to blow their load and worry about how to build a second set in the unlikely event such a thing arises.

>>97097075>>97096884You basically end up on a world where life is broken up by bizarre rituals that only certain people understand, but each are always respected. The ritual, not the person. Life's pretty good, if dirty. People get up, go to work, information stacks up in the data crypts, go home, sleep. People complain about their jobs, their boss, the local ecclesiarch who turned out to be worshipping the funny bird man in the small hat. The cults slip in through small banalities and cruelties, people who are seeking something more than that stifling atmosphere of ritual and continuity.Anyway, sperg aside, that's where the evil comes in. You know how today everyone is a bit lost? Some turn to religion, some turn to youtube influencers, some turn to the past. That's where the cults come in - they offer a little pocket in that stifling blanket of continuity and ritual. The world has gone on the way it has for millenia and won't stop. Nothing matters. Banality. For us, it was a standard doctor cult. Nurglite industrial magnate who couldn't stop the pain with modern medical science but found something that did. He started sponsoring doctors, found people at the lowest rungs of society who couldn't stand the spiritual pain of just living down there anymore despite being relatively well fed and clean and safe. The only reason he got caught was because the smoke from his factories got dirtier. 99% was just navigating the bureaucratic wank and going from office to office arguing with people in increasingly stupid hats.
