>>97831172Dming is a binary, you're either good or you're shit.
>>97831191That doesn't answer the question, provide a detailed step by step explanation with 8 peer reviewed sources of why you think railroading DMs is fine but not players
>>97831236It's not possible to railroad a DM, you're retarded.
>>97831421Are you not railroading the DM by refusing to play unless your very gay demands are met?Sounds like you're the one who is retarded
>>97830512So you are blind, then. Grim.
How classist and sneering is your character to other social classes? Does your character view peasants like filth, or anyone not scholar like an uneducated vermin, or nobles like tyrannical parasites, or sees settled, urban people, as soft and stagnant?
>>97828140Classist but not sneering. He's a LG but born and raised as a noble so tries his best to be the very model of chivalry.Tis ours, the dignity they give to graceThe first in valour, as the first in place;That when with wondering eyes our confidential bandsBehold our deeds transcending our commands,Such, they may cry, deserve the sovereign state,Whom those that envy dare not imitate!

My character is a literal criminal and thief, of course he hates the upper class.

A quarter since he can't give it away?Also it substitutes shadows with ice and cold I guess.It's a lot weaker than the shit I'm reading on the wiki but it is conceptually very similar.I could double down on it, and give a lot more importance to the run away prince part of his bcakstory, as I assume the world government isn't going to leave a mini demon running around out of control, no matter how limited compared the original. It would tie in with his obsession with freedom he already had.Or I could just go for the other idea I was working on that was kinda dumb, then became more serious, and now it's even more dumb. And was, strangely enough, going the exact opposite direction. Please tell me now if there is some kind of god already in OP, other than whatever Nika is.>>97833428>Husk (I assume) should be fine lol.Nope, the other one. The ice demon.

>>97831953Obviously it depends on what army you are playing, but the FE starters make about 1k in points, with 2k being pushed as the standard size. The average unit runs from around 150 pts. to 300 pts.
So I decided to play the SC2 campaign out of hype after not finishing WoL all those years ago. What should I be expecting?

>>97828430Hello?
>>97829270The same thing that every American thinks when they say "I could care less" when they try and express that they couldn't care less about something. Which is that they don't think anything about the individual words they are saying, they're using what is an idiom to them because they've heard other people do the same thing a billion times, even though English is their first language and they could easily recognize the mistake if they thought about it for a moment. You can take this to mean niggas is retarded if you want, but really people just don't think very hard about the language they use.
A few years ago, I've homebrewed a TTRPG Hero system, from 0. Obviously with a few bases (It was mostly based on GURPS or the 1d100 system wise). For an arts project that I graduated with and even got an interview for it.The world was about a post-apocalyptic metallic, chromium world. All cities became underground after the bombs, hyper advanced technology and history was lost to the nuclear disaster.But nowadays they're sort of recovering technologies on the surface and building surface cities of shiny and smooth metal.The huge point of the setting was that some people had radioactive or mutant powers appeared in different circumstances and some of them either become heroes or villains. But knowing that the world is still unknown and super dangerous.The whole system was point based that they would have some starter powers or mutations, but the more exposed they become to radiation, they will have either good or bad traits or powers but also an ''ego'' or moral compass. Excuse me if it sounds strange, I'm ESL, and it's been years since I've talked about this old project. Created in a fit of passion and 'tism
>>97829270>I don't get it, what did you think the phrase meant? What could "intensive" mean in this context that makes sense?I don't know. I think >>97830701 might have the right of it and it's that I never paid enough attention to the individual words or really thought about what I was saying.I do know why I said>Jesus fuck, I maybe actually be retarded.Instead of>Jesus fuck, I MIGHT actually be retarded.I was drunk.
>>97832996but what did you think you were communicating? ignoring the spelling entirely, what did you think the phrase means?>>97830701how are you speaking without thinking? that doesn't make any sense. you pick a meaning to communicate, and you form sentences that will communicate it. how else could you use language?either I'm being trolled or both of you are some kind of skinwalkers
I never realized how many players suffer from aphantasia and insist on using miniatures. Are you one of them, or do you embrace the unmatchable graphics of theater of the mind?
>>97833391No, theater of the mind is about visual representations in your head. There's still need to jot down stuff, like your character's health.
>>97833421Wait. You can't keep track of all that information with out a visual aid? So you must lack imagination.
>>97833414>>it's not neededExcept no, because for most people it is needed because it makes complex things like fights between the party and various monsters much easier to keep track of.Stop being retarded.
>>97831582Looks comfy
>>97831518I suffer from aphantasia, and prefer using miniatures in games that are made for such.Not WoD, not CoC, not even Shadowrun. Play / Make better games.

>>97833369then why do this random ass floramon line instead of one that ends with lotosmon
>>97833369I'm fine with this. I then wonder if Ceresmon will be raw Green or dual color like Siren.
>>97833450All the O12 minus Jupitermon have been dual color so far, even though nothing about Neptunemon's effect is black in his case.
>>97833470black because he's evil and a simp
>>97833380Because this way it also gets to be one last wave of Vortex support.
Long time MtG player (17 years?) and with what's happening to the game rn, i don't really have much interest in any of the new sets. Sorcery looks like it could maybe scratch that itch. The art is fantastic and reminds me of legacy MtG art. Anybody here play?I watched a few overview vids, but I'm curious how the actual gameplay goes. For someone who plays mostly EDH, are there any similarities? Is it usually a 2 player match?How long are the matches usually?Is it as much of a money pit as MtG?Convinced a few of my MtG friends to give it a shot based off of the art alone. Just need an idea of what I'm up against in terms of learning curve.
They need to give us more Frazetta art
>>97820622MTG player of 22 years that only plays premodern now here. Played in an 8 man Sorcery draft the other day and it's hands down the most fun I've had with a card game in years. Can't recommend it enough, man. If you have an LGS nearby with anyone that plays, join a draft and give it a shot. The grid adds a lot of depth in strategy.
>>97833316Can concur, it's fun to play.
>>97820929Is that Ian Miller art?I'm sold.I rate him over Blanche.
>>97833338Yea he painted a lot of cards in this recent set. the playmat for The Void is great, it's huge. Miller has been one of my favorite fantasy artists since Mirage came out, I really want to get an original piece from him before he's gone.

>>97833023The book is probably not ready yet. First came Atlantis, then Rome. They are probably finalizing The Fall now, and they will release it at some point. Then they will probably take feedback from players, correct mistakes, and re-release them with all with the corrections.

So, now you need to decide. Do you close your eyes to what you've seen and go back to sleep? Or do you come with this psycho burnout and do the impossible against the unbelievable and keep the future at bay for another day? What's it going to be? In or out?Yeah?

What DG books should I read to get into the setting? Outside the core rulebook, that is. I know nothing about it other than a vague idea it's kike X-Files for Cthulhu.
>>97831765Handlers Guide for the big overview, Conspiracy for the Conspiracy Era, Fall of Delta Green for the sixties era. There is also the original DG book, Countdown, Eyes Only and Targets of Opportunity.There are also the short story collections and novels. Basically any book is going to have some lore. The Handler's Guide had the most, but it's pretty dry.
>>97831765There's quite a few short story collections, but:"Strange Authorities" has the novella "The Rules of Engagement". This is peak Delta Green fiction.After that, read "Through A Glass, Darkly" to see how Delta Green transitions from The Conspiracy to The Program.There is also "Denied to the Enemy" for WW2-era DG, but it's honestly not a very good book.
>>97831159Sometime this year is the only ETA
>>97832070what happens in rules of engagement, I think I only read through a glass darkly
Here’s your magic card bro
>>97830096I am setting your cards on fire for that.
>>97822189Someone's trying to steal that book!
>>97831102The fire doesn't want 'em.
Can I play MTG without any DEI cards at all? Are they purposely made better gameplay wise? If I like the older art (at the very least of 2000s and earlier) will I have to spend a lot of money? Are those older cards power crept hard?
>>97833074Anon, why don't you try premodern? Ice Age-Scourge is the cutoff. Sounds like what you're looking for.

>>97832900You're half right. Page 157 of the PHB gets into it. I'll assume a trained warhorse rather than trying to get a normal horse or an intelligent mount into combat. It's a DC 5 ride check to guide the mount and keep your hands free. If your mount moves more than 5 feet, you can only make a single melee attack. If the mount charges, you get the attack bonus at the end of the charge but also get the AC penalty. You count as every square the mount occupies (and most mounts for Medium characters are Large), but threaten from its range and get a +1 bonus from the high ground.
>>97832985>>97832900thanks for pointing out where the rules are.>>97832710>Don't forget the horse gets to make an attack as well.he is using the Ride-By attack feat to strike in middle of his movement and ride on past the target. The horse is a standard skeleton heavy warhorse and doesn't have any feats that would allow it to attack in middle of a move action, so I assume with this combo it doesn't get to make any attacks.
>>97832985>ou count as every square the mount occupies (and most mounts for Medium characters are Large), but threaten from its range and get a +1 bonus from the high ground.That's pretty cool.
>>97833011Ah, right. I think I was getting it mixed up with the rules where you used to be able to Overrun as part of a Charge as well. No attacks for the horse then, unless you manage to line up a shot where he does a ride-by on one player then ends up next to another one for the horse to attack/Bull Rush.
>>97829802>>97829802Those are a bit weak on the scale of Nymph's kiss or even the niche power of Lichloved.>what's the fey banger feat called?Nymph's Kiss it's unfortunately Exalted ad needs you to keep the relationship going (And Fey tend to be fickle with even the good ones pulling you into the occasional mean prank that might cost you your Exalted status)These are usually very powerful feats, Lichloved is fairly niche but strong in that niche, while Nymph's kiss is just mondo strong.Fey creatures regard you as though you were fey. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on all Charisma-related checks, and a +1 bonus on all saving throws against spells and spell-like abilities. Starting with the level when you take this feat, you gain 1 extra skill point per level.Nice as a starter.I like the idea of a "Gotta fuck em all' playthough where there's a separate track without nonsex prereqs (And players possibly start with one or two) just to get crazy.
