Prostitution is the oldest profession. It has always existed and it will always exist. The presence of prostitutes and brothels is crucial for making a game setting and world feel realistic and lived in. Otherwise, it will lack all verisimilitude. So, tell us, how have you incorporated prostitution into your game?

Previous thread: >>97680129GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.TQ: what's your least favorite disadvantage for a player to take?
How do i stat picrel into GURPS? I know there is Gun Stats but how would i stat the possibility of there being an injury by the recoil caused by this?
So, what 3rd edition books are useless for 4th edition? I'd assume stuff that got a direct replacement like the tech books, Magic, Space, Fantasy (with Fantasy and Banestorm). Horror 4 is an update of Horror 3 which was significant change from Horror 2, so that one might have some uses.
>>97833548I think there's an anti-tank rifle in one of the books which has a chance of dealing damage to the user, so there is precedent. It's hard to make a general rules, because ST covers both strength needed to lift and aim the weapon and to manage its recoil, while Rcl isn't based on recoil force or even felt recoil, but instead by how much the gun throws its aim off when fired, so a high Rcl could mean a powerful gun or just a light-weight one. I think the best option might be if ST+Rcl exceeds some multiple (maybe 150%) of your ST, then damage might be possible, but the amount is hard to determine.>>97833870I think you've basically covered it. I believe everything in old Low-Tech and High-Tech now has 4th edition rules. Very little of Bio-Tech, Ultra-Tech and Steam-Tech remains 3rd ed only. Don't think there is anything in Magic which hasn't been replaced. Most of Compendium I is redundant. 3rd ed Horror is almost entirely replaced by 4th ed version + Madness Dossier. Fantasy doesn't seem to have anything not converted (but the extra supplements are still valid). Vast majority of other books still have at least some useable material. Even the Basic Set has the solo adventure.
>>97834051I know it's subjective, but how good are the 3rd edition books? I'm interested in the historical setting books, like Old West, Imperial Rome, and also Religion.

>>97833322I'll take a look. Never used it before. Thanks. There is an LGS somewhat near me that sells the game, but I'm not sure if it has regular players or not. I'll have to look.
EBG did show off some new cards recently, probably will a lot more as we get close to the release of Hubworld Aidalon. These three are particularly not fun to play against, but will be much fun for the Seeker that specs into thievery. Cool to see an agent that can actually defend itself after being revealed. It will be difficult to keep the 6 mandatory cost to eliminate her, but with the bleeding purse trick or a surprise obstacle, stealing could become impossible for them to afford it. These all seem really strong for limited. I see a lot of decks splashing for purple just to get access to the good counters. The strongest pairing might end up being Orange/Purple, but we'll have to see the rest of the cardpool to be certain of that.
>>97833793Already got these not too long back. The mobility is going to be a strong defense in its own right.

>>97815842I like this kind of sword with a handle along the spine of the blade of single-edged swords because it allows for great maneuvering in close quarters and to do half-sword maneuvers.

>>97833119As you said the forced diversity (demihumans having the same mandatory racial phenotypes as humans) and the focus on SoL (plus queerness and lighthearted tones expressed through saturation/lighting other than composition), which the game itself doesn't actually reinforce in any dimension (hence a tonal whiplash).

>>97831602As they say, great minds think alike. It just makes sense that if you're doing Raxus, you may as well say something about the Perlemian Trade Route. I personally decided to go with this sector as it fit my main theme of glamor and contradiction - Secundus is a beautiful, prestigious, noble planet, while Prime is a horrid junk heap that is very useful to the economy.>>97831497Yes, you are missing a couple of things. Din always takes the spear and the flamer. Meaning that his melee dice pool is either 2 red 3 black, or 2 red 1 black + however many minis the enemy has. The key here is that Din has tactical and his independent- the 2+ aims he always has mean that he usually hits all his dice AND the spear gives him the duellist keyword. That means that he can easily make his melee attacks have pierce 2(!) which is rare for bounty hunters. His 1 pip and 2 pip also also great for boosting his damage output and mobility. Boba's cards are weird in that most of them just give you a one time weapon.>>97833745You'd be surprised, Anon. I also play x-wing, and I know several grown ass men who adore the s*quels (with the exception of episode 9, not even they like that one)
>>97833849> with the exception of episode 9, not even they like that onePretty much agree (though episode 8 was, I’d argue, slightly more trash than 9) But I did kinda like Exegol (the location anyway) and the look of Sith Eternal stormtroopers.And the idea that bigger chunks of the DS2 might be found on other, less inhabited, moons of Endor wasn’t a horrible idea (the dagger thing was stupid) or the wayfinder stones feels like something force users of the past might concoct to keep their sacred sites secret.… basically there’s bits and pieces from the sequel trilogy that I’d like to cannibalize for my own Star Wars adventures, so long as I can completely disconnect them from the god-awful story and shittier elements.
>>97827927Literal retard take. Clonemasters using forbidden technology and kicking off a series of destructive wars is kino.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128Comment too long.

>>97833895Possible? Yes. It would take a lot of autism and a lot of time to get it right. I'm not sure it's worth the effort -- consider that Toady has been trying to make his history simulator not suck ass for well over a decade now
>>97833911>Toady has been trying to make his history simulator not suck ass for well over a decade nowQRD?
>>97833934It's called Dwarf Fortress, king of the simulationist vidjeo gaymes. The start of a new game involves a full world history simulation with plate tectonics, erosion, gods, historical ages, wars, and such. It's very cool and also the results are very clunky even after working on it since forever ago.

>>97833340We are playing ACKS2. >>97833680Yeah, our party has been a bit hesitant to hire henchmen especially the spell casters but I am playing a Venturer which are weak in combat. Because of this I went all in on henchmen early and they really clutched the fight, they held the important flank and the +1 AC from the bard's inspire courage stopped 5 hits on the party by my count.I think my group has been a little to 5e brained but I think this fight proved that all the extra help was critical and hopefully they will recruit some more guys when we get back to town.1
Not only is Yelmalio proven to get his ass beaten constantly in his own stinkin myths, he is portrayed as a proven enemy of the Storm Tribe afterwards. Why the hell would Sartarites bear to have them in their midst as potential destabilizing elements when his worshippers sell themselves to the highest bidder when the Occupation begins ?GLORANTHA Thread
>>97832773Still dont get why Jeff has such a hate boner for Elmal. Let people enjoy their cult of the loyal thane rather than Yelmalio if they choose so.
>>97832836I swear it's like a God Learning disease specifically for Elmal. I know that elmal only existed as a stop gap measure for possible fire rune orlanthi so they don't have to worship an enemy god for their light but c'mon. So what, now every fire rune nigga has to just leave the clan, town, tribe he was born in and saunter on over to be taught a foreign belief structure contrary to all his kin ?

>>97833104>I want 2e in /osrg/Nobody cares.>backThis is just outright nonsense. 2e is not an OSR game and as such was never welcome in /osrg/, there has never been any substantial 2e discussion in that general and it's always been politely but firmly asked to be taken elsewhere on the rare occasions it was brought up. The closest thing the troll has to lean on as evidence to the contrary is some unanswered shitposts from like 2014 and bringing that shit up is in itself evidence of bad faith since it says nothing about the long-term status quo of the general.
>>97833422The Omen table is pretty weak, but I could definitely see something similar being given to DivinersSo far what I have is this:Abjurer - Access to armor up to chainmailConjurer - “Secure Familiar” from Witch kit, maybe lower time to appear as level increasesDiviner - TBDEnchanter - TBDIllusionist - TBDInvoker - Militant Wizard kitNecromancer - Undead Master kitTransmuter - Can convert spells into potions as if spell research. Can also make healing potions
>>97833639NTA, but interesting ideas here
>>97833639The witch did also have some options to brew some potions/poisons, so that could be a good avenue for a Transmuter by lowering the level and and adding in other options. Being able to cast while in armor is also pretty big for an Abjuration wizard, though I could see starting with padded and upgrading to better armor after a few levels, depending on how immediate of a benefit you want it to be. I also remembered that there are a couple Gnome kits for Illusionists in the Complete Gnome book, though they mostly just make the spells more efficient. Not the most interesting, but one of them can also craft dust of disappearance.

>>97821296Not enough armor-piercing, total positive modifier death. I also don't fuck with Grail's durability mechanic. I think the game should just include templates instead of the weird blast/flamethrower rules, but that's less a critique and more of a personal opinion. They should maybe rework sultanate entirely too, they play like a lesser version of heretic legion.
