>>97830448>Why does it have a hood for a combustion engine?Man, don't even get me started on why we put engines in the front of the car instead of where they'd actually be optimal.
>>97830507if it's a limousine, the point isn't to be optimal, it's to be extravagant first and maybe comfortable second. it should be showy, then they put the engine far away from the passengers to reduce noise and vibration.
>>97830448Yeah. I'm fine with a magical communication crystal that, for all intents and purposes, gets used by characters as a phone. I get much more skeptical when it's obviously patterned after a flip phone despite not having any reason to have buttons or a screen that needs to be protected.
>>97830539That's post hoc. We put engines in the front because that's where the horses went.

>>97829042The real DivineZ was the friends we made along the way
Its going to be sad when akina defeat gab today since we know Vita is in the episode
>>97829042I dunno, I think the line up is fair enough. The only one that I'd say is kinda egregious is Senka. Yuna was pretty much an Akina cheerleader in Deluxe and also Hikari's friend so I imagine Akina does feel some good will towards her. Kyohma is essentially Erika's caretaker, so surely Akina likes/respects him to some extent. They at least had the good sense of not including like Suzune, Ruka, Mirei and Raika just because they were in the Deluxe together, and god forbid fucking Yuyu.
>Akina birthday is todayDoom bros is not looking good for you
>>97830361We're going to witness levels of miracle man not thought possible since Chrono vs Kanzaki
Given that anime and anime inspired cartoon styles have become pretty much the norm or at least incredibly common in most other forms of indie entertainment (TTRPGs, videogames, comics, animation, even miniature wargames). How comes it remains a relatively rare style to find in board games, an industry that operates almost entirely in the form of independent creators and small studios? How comes it still carries associations of being an art-style of games "for kids"? It was so strange when pic related came out seeing people "warning" others that even tho "it looks like a game for kids, it's actually quite difficult and heavy".
>>97829021What's wrong with that premise? You can summarise lord of the rings with the same greentext.
>>97829069Oh, nothing. Enjoy your movie.
>>97829021>ask normie>get slop for normie>made Pikachu FaceWhat is wrong with you? Also, you're most likely a pretentious faggot who only pretends not to like normie slop. Here's a test for a connoisseur, depressive plot in an abstract wrapper, unfortunately the ending is shit because fucking Gainax can't make a normal ending even if their lives depend on it. Well, at least the episodic stories are good and complete.
>>97829118>my dick joke in the year of our lord and saviour 2026Kek anon, can't get mad at you.
>>97828297To be fair UNO and Monopoly are not what I'd call "hobbyist games". They're incredibly mainstream popular products that essentially exist in their own bubble and respond to completely different markets and pressures, Hasbro would never consider publishing something like Sweet Lands because it caters to a completely different demographic than their games. Easily re-skinnable hobbyist games would be things like, idk, Love Letter I guess, tho that's a pretty simple game and it has technically gotten its fair share of licensed re-skins, none based on anime AFAIK.
Serious question: What value do slaves actually have to your average PC? Like, I've never seen any PC / group actively engage in slavery because there never seems to be any substantial reward worth the effort. It's like crafting or running a business, there's just no *point* in engaging with the mechanics because the rewards are puny.How could you make it actually appealing to players? It's not like they can load up a ship and sail off to the ivory coast.
>>97823276probably didn't run away because the alternative was far worse, since they were treated quite well, like most slaves.
>>97822602>>97823131well well well

I have found most systems for armor and defense unsatisfying.I find pure damage negation doesn't represent that armor doesn't just reflect but also reduces a lot of damage too, a hammer to the helmet won't just plink off its going to have some significant concussive effect, if less than against an unhelmeted head. But on the other end, armor as pure static damage reduction often doesn't illustrate the other end, that many attacks SHOULD simply be negated, a knife thrown at a breastplate won't just deal less damage, it will ping off harmlessly.And Barbarians of Lemuria, Specifically the Mythic version, I believe addresses both those concerns for me.This is done by a. health and damage being kept rather conservative and relatively equal, not becoming exponential as levels go up and b. armor being a die you roll for damage reduction rather than a static number. The range of damage that armor protects just so happens to align with the damage most weapons can do. damage being 1-6 + strength and armor protecting 0-5 damage. meaning that a low roll on most attacks and a high roll on most armor saves will have the armor totally negate attacks, while a high attack roll and a low armor roll will totally bypass armor, and a medium attack roll and a medium armor roll will deal reduced damage.This is all modified by the fact that 2 handed weapons you roll 2d6 and pick the highest damage, medium weapons you roll straight 1d6 and light weapons you roll 2d6 pick the lowest. And armor ranged from light reducing d6-3 damage (0-3 damage), medium reducing d6-2 damage (0-4 damage), and heavy reducing d6-1 damage (0-5 damage). This means a dagger has the potential to deal as much damage as a great axe if situation permits (like dagger to the eye slit), but is less likely too, and that light armor could fully protect you from a glancing blow like heavy armor, but is also less likely too.
>>97817261What worldvuilding setting?
>>97817261Honestly Shadowrun's was fine. Can reduce or negate attacks, or it determined how easy it was to reduce or negate an attack back before SR4.
>>97819819... what?
I don't want to roll five to know what a hit does to some guy inside the armor.
>>97829011Yes you do. I have never seen a person not love it when they roll a wound chart.
How high would you rank the riding skill of the average Comanche Warrior in your system of choice? Explain your answer.
>>97827828I'd run them in Runequest with the stat blocks of Praxian braves, just minus most of the magic and riding a regular horse rather than something mental like an ostrich or buffalo.Actually, I'd specifically take their stat-block from the Ostrich riders, who are a rather savage Praxian tribe, and would make a fine analogue.The Comanche were a great race of horse-lords.They came late to those ways, but I sincerely regard them as the Mongols of the Western plains.
>>97827828Is horse does man ride in horse man warrior riding in your game setting system? Please respond.
>>97828651>how absurdity good they were with bows, horse riding, and wilderness survival.And shooting, as well. It's the one thing that annoys me about the 90's "magical Indian" trope; Indigenous Americans were insanely good sharp shooters, and by the end of the Comanches period of domination in the west, it was a pretty big part of their culture.
>>97829631What is often forgotten is that by their last days as independent nations, native warriors of tribes like the Comanche and Lakota were armed with the most contemporary weapons at the time and had fought in the ACW giving them the experience to be pound-for-pound better fighters than their typical European counterparts. Their bowmen were one thing, but their riflemen were often the decisive part of an engagement.

>>97830171Since there's someone here to explain meta rules and drama, what the fuck is up with this fishfag guy?

>>97830343/osrg/ outlawed all 2e as off topic, hence the rebirth of /todd/. Anyone who was against this is accused of being an ACKS fanboy who got laughed out of /3eg/ and is purportedly why 2e isn't allowed in /osrg/ anymore.
>Announcing reports is a bannable offense thoYeah except that's not what he was doing retard-kun, he wasn't declaring his own report, but saying people should report you for your absolutely feral hog tier behaviour.It's the difference between me saying I'm going to fuck your wife and high fiving you as I walk out the room after she had the only pleasant night since you married.
>>97830343They use that fishfag term as an excuse. Hell I have seen them call no less than 5 different posters fishfag.Osrg just has a small group of weirdos who think for some strange reason 2e isn't OSR and have a holy crusade about it. They brigade every 2e thread.

>>97827764True metallic metal - a reflective additive is added to the paint to make it look metallic, usually mica flakes or powdered aluminum. Non metallic metal - no reflective additive added, the metallic effect is from use of contrast and color to give the illusion of metal.
>>97828514Mix them up in the unit, maybe do some with the darker green base coat and add in yellow for brighter highlights. Orks are fun like that.
>>97829415With oil paints you should have two rinse cups. One that you use for rinsing between colors and one (with less spirits in it) that you use as a final rinse when you're done with the brush. Ideally you should get maybe a little tinting in the second cup instead of making the spirits look cloudy. When switching between similar colors (dark transparents to dark transparents for example) I really don't even rinse much, just wipe the brush on some paper towels a few times until most of the color comes off then go into the next one.
