If I copy paste a vaguely hyperborean steampunk story here, will anyone read it?
>>97827065Go for it, I dumped some chapters of Moorcock in here once. If you're feeling generous it would be kind to put it in a png or two to avoid creating a big wall of text
I have a distinct memory of doing a reading at U.C. Irvine, where Avram was teaching at the time, to find him sitting in a front row, holding a frisky helium balloon in one hand, and a pretty young student’s hand in the other. After I finished my gig (somewhat distracted by performing in front of one of my major heroes, old friend or no), Avram came up to give me a hug and to inquire, quite seriously, “What do you know about feral camels?” As it happened, I did know something about a tentative attempt by the American Army, in the days after the Civil War, to introduce a small force of camels into the deserts of the Southwest. The attempt was soon abandoned; but for many years afterward, soldiers and nineteenth-century tourists alike would report having seen impossible ghostlike creatures materializing out of a sandstorm, and vanishing again just as swiftly.I happened upon this while flipping the story I'm aiming for. It reminds me of the oldlore of saurs being introduced to the west like these camels. It makes me wonder if whoever came up with that knew this story, or if it's just such a perfectly natural idea that strange animals should be introduced to the deserts of America.

>>97825040I've been looking for a viable alternative to mothership for similar reasons, Death in Space seems at best half baked, the combat rules especially.
>>97827167I haven't looked at that one. You might be able to use stars without numbers. That one has a lot of options
>>97827164I think that name rings a bell, I saw it when I looked up CSC in the archive.It's a really great piece of work, I've been having a marvelous time with it at my Gongfarmers chapter.The next adventure I want to do is a multiple-choice mission where the PCs are offered three jobs from their fixer; >I've got a guy who wants a guy dead. I've got another guy who wants someone...extracted against their will. Nothing bad will happen to him, in case you care. And I also have a straightforward bodyguard/escort gig. Take your pick, I have other runners who'll do the others.Turns out, it's all the same guy. A mob informant is trying to duck out of his deal. The District Attorney wants him to testify, the triads want him dead, he wants to go to Tahiti with his mistress. The PCs will be up against two other teams of runners who have opposing objectives.
Anyone here ever tried using the Veins of the Earth cave generation system? I like how it can make nonlinear and challenging passages, but I can see it becoming repetitive with the limited number of options.

Been working on a yugioh based ttrpg on and off.Uses cards as spells and stat blocks, relatively simple mechanics, characters can cast spells summon monsters and do a bit of fighting themselves. Mana is limited but recharges somewhat quickly. Mostly inspired by the pharaoahs memories story arc so sort of balanced up to the legacy of darkness/labyrinth of Nightmareperiod of cards.Check it out and let me know what you think. https://files.catbox.moe/40h9rw.PDF

>produce indie module>send it to a few youtubers who review modules and have a decent reputation for independent thought>hey, I've seen some of this guy's videos and he has never once mentioned being paid>send free copy>get email from his agent quoting a price for a reviewWhy are they all like this?
>>97818270Nice work, I've seen this sped spouting this "RPGs are worse than ikea" horseshit before, and you took him apart much more neatly and respectfully than I was gonna, kek
>>97816639>hey, I've seen some of this guy's videos and he has never once mentioned being paidNo, you're just blind.Most countries have laws that require people who do any sort of reviews to disclose if they were paid for said reviews, including if they got the product for free. In fact, I'm pretty sure this is a standard part of YT's ToS.But then again, maybe you're no blind and he does in fact not mention getting paid for reviews, in which case he's probably in violation of YT's ToS and maybe some actual laws...
>>97820260>>97820400What's happening to him sucks, but I think he still gets flak because he's such a repulsive guy. He's militantly political and wants leftist messaging in games, and has defended drag queens and porn books in libraries, calling those who don't Nazis.
>>97827561Holy shit, kill yourself you pathetic waste of space.
>>97816639Well, considering the jump from "this guy", singular, to "why are they all" I suspect it's largely due to you being a smarmy little shit with a narrative to push because you got butthurt over not getting the free publicity you thought you were entitled to.
Would your human male fighter ever consider getting themselves a nice trad peasant wife and settling down in the countryside?
>>97817852male human fighters are built for they/them tiefling pussy
>>97827385This. Tiefling pussy is always better when they've also got a demonic feminine penis adjacent.
>>97817852>Would your human male fighter ever consider getting themselves a nice trad peasant wife and settling down in the countryside?Yes, of course. In fact, that's where my human male fighter came from: His human male fighter dad settled down with a trad peasant wife and produced the next generation of human male fighter. My character's goal is to continue that legacy.

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.
>>97797671Most TTRPGs are focused on combat and adventuring. Slavery generally only has utility in getting menial tasks done (or, in some cases, like Roman slavery, niche skilled labor as well). The only point of slavery in most TTRPGs would be having extra bodies to throw at the enemy, but you'd have to somehow justify why those slaves don't rebel, run away, etc.The most practical "slaves" in your traditional TTRPG would be magical creatures that are forced by their nature or some even greater threat to be loyal to you, like a genie or some NPC whose choices are "be a loyal slave to these adventuring autists or get smited by an angry god" or something similar.
>>97797671My PC has a psuedoslave in one of my games. They're a techie who helps fix up gear my lowborn ganger wouldn't have access to and in return they live a life that's nominally more free than if they were to get captured by the authorities and returned to formal slavery.
>>97823276>The only point of slavery in most TTRPGs would be having extra bodies to throw at the enemy, but you'd have to somehow justify why those slaves don't rebel, run away, etc.In fiction or the real world? You've got Unsullied, Mamluks, Jannissaries, Aztec auxilliaries, plenty of examples with various obedience mechanisms.>>97823158Hill giants and ogres would definitely use human slaves for all sorts of things, both menial and technical labor, housekeeping, sex, cooking, infiltration, coming up with new shenanigans and other activities that can escape a 7 INT.
>>97808048well?
>>97823276probably didn't run away because the alternative was far worse, since they were treated quite well, like most slaves.
What's the appeal of evil women?
>>97815266i want them to spit on me
>>97820726It is funny because women's relationship autism communities like r/femaledatingstrategy genuinely seethe at women who have sex and especially enter relationships with non-ideal males.
>>97815266Femdom>>97815505Hub, well. That explains a bit
>>97816502>Ms. Molestobased based based
Evil women are usually more sexually aggressive. Which resonates with certain people.
Post art, stories, fanfics, minis, animations any OC you like depicting this pairing.No seethers.
>>97801707That's cute, actually.>>97803066In GW canon? No. In fanon? It has happened over and over again.>>97808013A fair point.>>97802923No, I was wondering about the laurel specifically, you excessively murderous shitposter you.
>>97803069Except that got retconned out of existence, anon.
>>97783117you can have a BDSM sex relationship with a Deldar in rogue trader but with the eldar you can only chastely not hold hands
>>97790402Yeah and it's annoying. It's like the brown Eldar he added (since when are those a thing??) and the "Baronex" bullshit, then having a they/them Eldar. If they're so evolved just let them not give a single shit and call everyone a Prince or Baron in the same way that all Banshees wear the same armour. I don't mind the gay or yuri desu that makes more sense to me but the rest of the bs is tiresome. At least when you're scissoring you don't need to worry about soulstones.

>>97819842My friends are first and foremost fantasy /awg/ players. I'm quite happy they gave Warcry a chance despite avoid GW's games like the plague, for a good reason but that's obvious to anyone stuck in the GW's hell. The local GW crowd is good-hearted but absolutely mindless, they only follow the shiny new releases and the mere thought of playing an unsupported game/edition gives them a panic attack.
So with the Nemesis Claw's prescience token system when it says "Skip" that operative's activation does that mean you can activate them later or are you totally passing their turn for that turning point?
>>97821339My condolences. Maybe try to get them to play Mordheim if they haven't already? It's surprisingly quite mechanically similar to KT18 except with an actually good campaign system.
Is the monster thing a one and done occurrence, or they are going to do more?I need great knarloc models...Also it's a good way to slow down the release of teams.
>>97826310It would help if you read the full ploy, really. "you can skipyour activations (in other words, you can delay that friendlyMURDERWING operative’s activation until your opponent hasonly one ready operative"they really explain it in the () that you can activate him later on. But it basically gets rid of one of you counteract actions.>>97826752>hate gw or only play the new and shiny thing>play mordheimdoes not add up, really.>>97827461Sounds more like a one and done thing for me, but that they have to slow down the release of teams means they are out of proper ideas for teams it seems so sounds like the game is really in a bind here.
