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.

Recently I found some Humanity Fuck Yeah YouTube videos that use AI voice narration on my feed. After using them as background noise while cleaning my apartment I found that that most of them are more or less the same. Humans are the only ones who know how to fight/love sex/survive/etc. How can we save the genre or reinvent it so it isn't so stale?
>>97831662I wonder if you could do a fake-out HFY with an alien commander listing off all the traits that make humans such dangerous warriors, their drive, their power etc typical HFY stuff about how they'll never give up in war and keep coming backonly to end with a "in short, they're just like us, they're warriors, and that's why I am confident they will understand why we do this" And blows up earth
>>97831706He's exactly like me.I'd blow up earth too.
>Cringe HFYKilling all the aliens because you're a pussy that can't stand the thought of having to compare yourself to anyone else>Based HFYJoining the alien empire and proving your personal worth and the worth of the human species by helping aliens
>>97829421He literally invented Planes and Tactics threads thoughI played that shit for years after

>>97824339I like it a lot too. I love Lyonesse-like picaresque fantasy, and at this point I just couldn’t stand yet another high fantasy brain dead setting.
>>97832662>brigaded by the osrg folksLooks to me like the most obsessed people ITT are the anti-/osrg/ brigade.
>>97832782Okay. So have you ever played the black hack or black sword hack?

Would it be strange for my Dwarf units to have different colored outfits, so long as my heraldry/weapons for them stays the same? I feel like Dwarves are a spiritually boomer faction, so I think their wives should dress them.
>>97832338Nothing wrong with that, especially for more basic units like warriors.
>>97831510Mixed, almost white passing hands wrote this post. Nice try, Carlos
>>97832338Agreed with >>97832446 the only hard exception I think should be Hammerers as their position would be far more conducive for uniformity, but even then maybe varied pauldrons or some small detail for clan affiliation.Warriors, Miners, Thunderers, Quarrelers, Slayers, Rangers, Longbeards, Gyrocopters, Engineers, Artillery Crews, they're entirely plausible to be going to war all begarbed in all sorts of various kit down to a homemade gambeson from their rinns.Saying that, it's /yourdudes/, if you can fluff them for it all the better and to hell with anyone who says that they have to be uniformed.
>>97832338>>97832446>>97832760Also agree. Hammerers and Ironbreakers wouldn’t work because they get their gear from the hold itself, so they should be uniform and professional. But basically anyone that isn’t them could plausibly be wearing varying amounts of their own gear and especially own clothing.

I believe in Masanori. There will be another cour. This can't be the end.

>>97831275nta, but I think anon in the last thread said it well: a very polished magic clone/ offshoot. if you like those kind of games like mtg or fow or duelma then you will prob give the gameplay 10/10
>>97830369Why do you need a link? Just search the catalog for acg you primadonna faggot.
>>97831275Nta but alpha clash is very high quality magic clone. Problem is it has very low support, no stores in the ~10 within 20 miles of me. If there was, I'd play it in a heartbeat.Instead I'm playing Riftbound and Lorcana, and recently pokemon because I have a 5 y/o that caught the bug.
So it's Netrunner but worse, with artwork designed by troons? What's the appeal?

Pendragon Thread!What's the deal with 6E?
>>97830959True to Britain, as many British historians are saying. Regale me with how many knights were absolute fairies who took Moorish cock up the ass.
>>97827759>Femnoids are inferior.On average, maybe. To you specifically, definitely not.
>>97831044That would be the French.
>>97831951After 1066, what's the difference?But I'm still right - just a different brown, I guess. I know BBC history - Britain was always black.
So my knight in the GPC I am playing in just got an Amor passion from a peasant woman and when I rolled the Amor number the GM said it SHOULD be just a d6 but permitted any 6 to explode, roll another d6 and keep adding until no more 6s are rolled. Ended up getting that Amor up to 14 and crit succeeded a Lustful check. Guess my first born will be with a peasant women.

>>97825864A very fun game. I agree it does scratch the same itch and has a slightly more satisfying ramp up arc
>>97830142I agree with >>97830862. If you built an engine that is too big to capitalize on that's a skill issue.
>>97830142Splendor ends too soon even if you win, sometimes you get to 15 points before you even get one top row card. When if it was as satisfying as Dominion you'd snap up a bunch of those before you won

Gearhead thread but for /tg/Part of why I like to play ttrpg's is the analog aspect. I prefer to keep all digital things out of the experience. No laptops, ipads, phones at the table. Well, an exception can be made for googling something quick, but other than that, keep that shit in your pocket.I like to do my gm prep, world building, drawing maps, in notebooks. npc and character sheets etc.on paper.I really like MUJI stationery. Their notebooks are really nice, and their pens and pencils are amazing.I recently found some hex paper notebooks on amazon. That was really nice to use to draw some hex maps.Do you have any neat stationery or other analog "gear" that you really like? Could you share some of your cool items or showcase your note taking system or maps or whatever?
>>97831001>Index Card RPG intensifies
I have nothing to add to the discussion, merely enjoying the pics. I do have some personal observations from playing several sessions of paper-only Ironsworn. >I don't usually go back to read notes/journals of previous sessions even when playing digitally. Having both in physical papers didn't change that. >If anything, re-reading past sessions didn't feel that great since it looked like a bunch of notes (am i back in college??) >I'm not an artist, so the notes and journals are kinda bland to glance at too. A minimal level of artistry might be required for all-paper play, at least for me. >my handwriting is decent, but not being able to search my notes felt incredibly limiting >Persistent frustration and annoyance from not being able to write down imaginations and thoughts quickly to paper in detail - either had to sacrifice time to write detailed account by hand or sacrifice detail by summarizing what I envisioned. >keeping a different binder for re-orderable set of notes on worldbuilding elements became a necessity, but it added to the physical clutter (MORE binders, sire?) In the end, I abandoned the paper-only play. I REALLY want it to work for me but it just isn't clicking. I believe my main hurdles were from not knowing how to draw, which impacted my desire to read my old sessions even when played outside the papers-only medium.

He did nothing wrong.Everything that he ever did was for humanity
>>97777202refusing to explain to his sons what he was doing or the dangers of chaos is his biggest mistake. going to fight horus was his second. his third and final mistake was his lack of humanity. the emperor is completely responsible for everything that has happened to humanity and you are lying to yourself if you think otherwise.

>>97831776Yes.
>>97831598the problem with rebels is it's impact than what it isbecause now we're having multi-million dollar live action tv shows with the same trash writing with the same trash characters instead of anything good
>>97831598>some dorky Jewish kid? Was this the writers self insertHe's actually just meant to be space Aladdin, he fits pretty much everything. If you want to know why, Filoni is a pedo and gets off to that shit
I am not excited for maul: shadow lord and the more I see of it, the more it just looks like it'll be a show made for "those" TCW fans, the type of idiots who clap at a thing they recognize with nothing original actually happeningthe only thing that makes me a tiny bit hopeful is the main writer, but the premise just looks like shit, I don't even think anything significant will happen
>>97832133The Mandalorian girl seems like such a fucking Disney XD character >>97832229Based if true
Anyone got any better than this D&D now vs then comparison pics, especially for art style?Seeing the new MTG set look so incredibly gay and full of mediocre modern digital fantasy art is quite sad.
>>97831907>>97831915>>97832503Pic on the right is a trap. Sure, it looks like Fulsom Street in San Francisco with less leathermen. But it's also exactly the kind of thing a beholder would do and the reason is to attract other beholders to the degenerate spectacle so the gayholder can slay them. Beholders hate most life forms but hate other beholders most, because they aren't perfect like that beholder. I'm surprised that mirrors aren't more effective on them. Here, just stare at yourself while we get the flaming oil ready.
>>97832558Not all beholders hate everything other than themselves. Some can get along with others like that one leading a thieves guild. Spectator Beholders like that one you meet in BG2 is pretty friendly and will talk to people.
>>97832503>The beholder casts ray of gayness>Make a will save of 18 or your characters become gay
>>97831907Sure.
This is stupid.Both of these images are false. The image on the right is not new-D&D, it’s what pearl clutchers and grognards think new D&D is like. And I’ve read the old stories of pre-millennium adventures. Those were just as prone to colossal shit-shows as today.Nothing’s changed, except which rules are getting argued over.
