Reading this module and it seems great so far - in fact I’m wondering if a description of a hypothetical downed ship in the 3.5 Dungeon Master’s Guide draws on this.

For anyone that has run Expedition to the Barrier Peaks 1) How easily is it adapted for B/X and 2) I feel like showing the illustrations when instructed kind of gives the game away very quickly. Does anybody have any ideas?

>>97397995
The game Worlds Without Number was supposedly inspired in part by BotNS, but that's a system and not a setting or module.

Fomalhaut is a setting with science-fantasy aspects, but it's very dissimilar from either Vance or Wolfe, and is more like a cynical orientalist pulp setting – Harryhausen's Sinbad movies and Lamb's Khlit the Cossack stories come close, I think.

Anomalous Subsurface Environment is a never-completed megadungeon set in a postapocalyptic sci-fantasy wasteland, but again it's less Wolfe and more Gamma World; Mad Max meets Mad Magazine.

These are the closest things I can think of offhand, but to be honest, I think you'll struggle to find anything that replicates Wolfe's baroque strangeness.

>>97398493
>I feel like showing the illustrations when instructed kind of gives the game away very quickly.
Yes and no. If you read the descriptions and look at the illustrations of the various items, you'll probably notice that they're deliberately created to trick people into misidentifying them on the basis of their familiarity with Star Trek and such, so they take the devices' functions for granted and zap themselves in the face with lasers. The illustrations showing the players that they're clearly onboard a flying saucer are part of the setup for these other illustrations with which to mislead them.

>>97398065
if you are the anon and not samefagging, do NOT read the "n00b guide"
The document as a whole pushes a skewed, innacurate view of the OSR, was written by someone who's clearly biased towards AD&D/OSRIC to an unhealthy degree, and is also a hitpiece on anything not outside of the authors narrow one true wayism.

Such a sense is borne of fear, or the worry you can't handle a given situation.
Treat every situation as one that is well in hand, rather than one that requires careful approaching.
Think of a school test whose material you have well studied for; you do not approach it with trepidation, only confident resolve that you can and will succeed. Strike first, strike hard, the battle is already won.

im doing homebrew shit but does this sound too strict(i already have a rune system)
i wasnt going to start a new thread over this

>>97398687
1) Charge your phone
2) Type up your actual questions and put them into context. Is what too strict? Relative to what other options? Do the players even care about the subsystem you're modifying? etc.

>>97398687
By what I can glean from the image, your "rune system" seems to be a whole-ass conlang with astrological influences, which is not going to be sensible to run in tabletop because it's combining exact in-universe time-keeping with detailed semantic analysis. Apply more layers of abstraction to be working with clearly-defined mechanical elements instead of naked linguistics.

>>97397665
Not sure the analogy is right but I'd say the Raptor for the IS. Not the best protected thing in the world but extremely well armed for something its weight and being an Omni can bring its own BA support without slowing down. Arctic Fox I'd say also falls into this category but I am not too fond with a lot of the configs.
Clans you've got a choice of the Kit Fox, Adder or Cougar depending what config you go for. They ain't the fastest designs but they can pack a punch.

>>97398380
I am going to be a pedantic faggot. He said the M3 which is the Cavalry Fighting vehicle. It only has 2 scout dismounts. Its not really a transport. Aside from being short ranged your suggestions seem pretty on brand for an M2.

>>97398294
I'm guessing that anon is referring to the completely unexpected performance that the Bradley had during Desert Storm. Absolutely no one from either side anticipated it to be capable of engaging and absolutely annihilating entire battlegroups of tanks. The Russians, former USSR satellite states and everyone else who was buying their equipment shit themselves reading over those reports.

They had expected it to perform something near the BMP and finding out they could actively seek out and engage armored formations was every bit as shocking as the performance of low weight Clan mechs was to the Inner Sphere.

The disguise has gotten so convincing that many fell for their own trick. They have forgotten who they really are. This is intentional.

The 'many' being everyone.

The alien overlords have already won, but refuse to admit their true existence, even to themselves. The reasons are various.

Some fear competing aliens
Some have forgotten
Some believe the charade is meaningful in itself
Some fell in love with humanity and no longer want to return to their original selves.

The end goal of all this self-deception is to trick reality into making you a human.
Naturally, this is a pretty esoteric goal and hard to accomplish wittingly.
Game mechanics involve subliminally programming yourself so you can do manchurian candidate shit without breaking your own self-delusion.

Sure it's not the worst new players but I would like to get sensible progress over a 3-4 hour session.

>>97397839
if possible I'd keep trying to introduce them to established DnD settings (or Pathfinder settings) since that game seems to be one they're the most familiar with. Trying to drag them kicking and screaming into a whole new set of books and a heavily immersive world of lore might be difficult. You could also look at games like the Warhammer 40k RPGs by Fantasy Flight Games, or Wrath and Glory, since those are specifically designed around an established setting that they have to learn and understand or else their characters will be swiftly deleted by the Imperial authorities.

>>97398305
Good advice, yeah I'll consider it. I just like WoD more than Warhammer and DnD but maybe I should keep it in mind.

>>97398343
Eventually, if they show a positive progression of appreciation for worldbuilding and deep lore, introducing them back to WoD should be much more successful.

>one of the Sidereals that destroyed Fallen Lapis was killed with a single arrow by the Bull of the North
They sent the jobber Sidereals I suppose

For completeness sake, here is the 3e write up on how the Haltans grow food:
>Haltans collect rainwater in barrels and cisterns. In times of drought, water can be hauled up from the rivers, but such work is hard and risks encounters with the fae.
>The Haltan diet relies heavily on fruits, berries, and nuts such as hazelnuts, grapes, and rose hips, as well as tender leaves, shoots, and inner bark when in season. Farmers tend to treetop gardens, transporting soil from the surface over the years and replenishing it with composted material. There they grow herbs, vegetables, and flowers for the beekeepers’ hives to pollinate. Mushrooms, harvested from caves in hollows beneath the trees, feature in many dishes.
>Animal products, though a luxury, form a significant part of the Haltan diet. Households cage-raise small birds, rabbits, rodents, and lizards for meat, eggs, fur, feathers, and the like. Hunters train hawks to catch small game like squirrels and hares on the ground, or to pluck smaller birds from the air and fish from the river. Trappers drop snares from low branches to capture larger animals and work together to haul them up into the trees.

>>97398287
Huh, a real downgrade from 1E's description, I don't remember what 2E had

>>97398224
>They sent the jobber Sidereals I suppose
You think that Sidereal was jobbing? The other Sidereal that was involved got executed. Dying to bureaucracy when you have Arcane Fate and any number of opportunities to just walk away into temporary exile takes some doing.
