>>97833651It's an extension of Verdant Emptiness Endowment. But rather than changing the circumstances of a single character, the wish-granting is extrapolated into a narrative blessing for all people under the wish-maker's authority. So, a prince can wish for his people to be beautiful wealthy geniuses, and you can make this so, but he's indebted to you, and reneging on the deal corrupts the wish into a tragic curse.
>>97833591No problem, glad to have a chance to rant about my current autism trap honestly.>"atomised Charm design"This is also why Investigation is my least favourite Ability tree. Don't get me wrong, it's good enough at what it does, but it has the most Charms that work with the mechanics as stated rather than get weird with it like Awareness eventually rewarding you for devolving into solipsistically ignoring attacks. Even then there are a few neat effects like World-Memory Echo (glimpsing the past), Sand-Writ Exodus (cursing someone with footsteps of silver sand that reform if swept away without appropriate magic) and Inevitable Manhunt Summons (teleporting the guilty into the Endless Desert, which they inevitably escape into the Infernal's presence). Bureaucracy is surprisingly fun even though it basically amounts to a second Socialise charmset plus some assorted (mostly) large scale curses.>Solar BrawlAdmittedly despite my unease with the mechanics, my takeaway from both is that essentially while Solar Brawl will whip Infernal Brawl in a Charm-for-Charm contest, Infernal Brawl is designed in a way to ultimately be greater than the sum of it's parts in ways that are more sustainable. More to follow, and everyone else feel free to correct me if I'm wrong/inaccurate.
>>97833591Take a look at Retribution Will Follow, Infernal Monster Awakened and Glory to the Demon-Monster for example. Individually each is a very modest effect compared to the Supernal Brawl Solar using Fivefold Fury Onslaught to punch you forever (and let's face it, Joyful Cessation of Restraint is just a shittier, lower Essence FFO) or reset all his rounds of control-but taken together you end up with multiple scenelongs that cut down on Essence/Willpower costs, enhances Strength when you Decisive/crash someone then adds it to your effective Initiative while ignoring some soak/hardness, reduces wound/crippling penalties and adding an automatic success to attack rolls. There is nothing like Inevitable Victory Meditation that lets you stock a functionally guaranteed hit ahead of time...but /you don't have to time it or rely on that one good hit either/Another example is the flashy Lightning Strikes Twice, which gives you an extra attack using ANY Ability in Brawl and lets you charge several rangebands to potentially put someone in a grapple with their Defense set to 0. Infernal Brawl does not really fuck with Defense directly. Nor does it have Ascendant Battle Visage's enhanced Clashes, powerful long ranged clash effects, speed buffs or immunity to being crashed.What it DOES have are competitive alternatives. The Infernal may not be able to double Rush results...but with Nowhere to Run the Infernal can simply attack at long range, no questions asked, with 4 bonus damage dice to boot. Slavering Horror Maw is already a pretty good heavy weapon that's just there PERMANENTLY on your face, and it can be upgraded to add it's daamge to even non-savaging bite attacks, convert damage dice to automatic successes and make reflexive decisive once per round. One Hand Fury (also PERMANENT) can give the fangs even BETTER traits, rerolls (Strength failures) and makes them very nasty. The surcharge effect is seemingly indefinite.
>>97833591The long and short of it is that Solar Brawl is very flashy, but from what I've seen it's individual Charm costs ramp up very quickly. Whereas Infernal Brawl is comparatively modest, but is way more generous with scenelongs/permanent effects. If the Solar gets the timing right and pops off a good attack, nothing can stop him. But that's a big if, there's a reason why Dodge has often been recommended as a supplement to Brawl, and Infernal Brawl kinda approaches fights with both being and adapting to worst case scenarios. Worth noting that Hero-Sundering Hands forces a grappled foe to either accept the highest crippling injury possible (which doesn't count for their maximum) and Star-Swallowing Cosmos Collapse (showy name but it just lets you grapple out to short range) implies Infernal Brawlers have much less to fear from multiple opponents and battlegroups.>Blasphemous Miracle ProvidenceFor me, the big breakthrough was seeing Distant Whisper Wind (influence someone in Essence X10 miles briefly, or everyone in extreme range for a prolonged period), Spoken Sigil Ideogram (sub Linguistics for another social Charm's Ability. Did I mention Performance has a separate Charm to use it's Charms interchangeably for all kinds of performance? Or War) and Conceptual Rebus Concatenation (use TWO Simple Linguistics Charms together!) together in Linguistics. And after some consultation realising that yes, you CAN blast people with your Torments while ravaging their Resolve.>the main thingMercifully not only do Infernals have a lot of tools to even the odds (like the Brawl Charms I mentioned), but Shadow Spite Curse is back (in Larceny) and better than ever at absolutely fucking over everyone else's rolls. Best thing is unlike Abyssals, Infernals are much less reliant on actually landing penalties on people; the overall Charm design is more about either winning the war even if the battle's lost or throwing out costly to deal with effects at crazy ranges.
>>97833660>real, cooler NPC InfernalsHolden, of course, claims he had no idea what he was thinking when writing that. And yeah, Essence really discouraged me as well. I do wish there was a bit more substance to what Infernals currently have, but I'll gladly take it over either Cosmic Exalted Akuma or the SJWs of Hell.>Interpreting these bodiesIt's a reasonable take, one thing I will never be used to with 3e is lots of things going unexplained or confusingly worded when 2e at least tried to lay all the cards on the table when it wasn't OUTRIGHT withholding the big boys' statblocks from you.One thing that strikes me about the draft demons' statblocks is they look much more incomplete than the ones in HDNP, and what struck me about a lot of HDNP demons was that in many cases they weren't MEANT to be combat monsters. So my final cope is that the actual, published version of Ligier, Ululaya and the lot may just have a few extra things to clarify how their celestial bodies work or add to their powerset. It doesn't have to be anything too showy, I would be quite pleased with a Principle Invoking Onslaught-style hack of a Merit that just goes "Ligier's might transcends mere physicality. He can make these effects with Presence, Performance, Occult etc which makes them manifest as pillars of hellfire erupting from beneath the foe, rains of molten metal, environmental hazards with X Difficulty and Y damage etc etc etc" It's not a hope I'm holding onto particularly strongly, because I've consistently seen 3e's development take the path of least resistance and most low effort, shallow, reactionary kneejerk response to prior editions' content. But 3e Infernals has restored enough of my optimism to wait and hope at least. That and fill in the feedback form for what little good it'll do.

>>97833448Wyrm taint doesn't immediately turn someone into a ravening monster, it's just spiritual dirtiness. Someone who works in a slaughterhouse or a morgue or lives next to a landfill or a mass grave might end up tainted by the Wyrm, so when a werewolf uses the Gift that allows them to sense Wyrm taint, that human will ping as tainted. They almost definitely don't serve the Wyrm, but the stench of death and destruction clings to them after they wallowed in it for long enough.Banes and other servants of the Wyrm are likely going to be drawn to these incidentally tainted people and compel them to serve the Wyrm one way or another, as their exposure to death and destruction makes them more vulnerable to possession by the Wyrm's brood, but they're not bad guys by default.So a werewolf who goes around killing everyone who pings as tainted is going to be seen as an extremist retard even by other werewolves, since most of their victims are going to be innocent humans who just live in unfortunate circumstances. But when almost everyone identified as a vampire pings as tainted, werewolves can't bring themselves to believe that vampires are incidentally tainted and end up assuming that they must all serve the Wyrm, if vampirism causes them all to ping as spiritually contaminated.A common tactic of the Wyrm's servants is to taint the masses wherever they operate, so that they can hide in plain sight among normal people. Sense Wyrm is a very unreliable tool and werewolves who use it like Detect Evil are going to end up causing a lot of collateral damage and hurting their own cause.
So regarding the rituals for lowering rituals, is there anything about the social blowback for such rituals?I mean, it suits elders just fine for the only way to lower your generation to be committing a horrible crime that warrants your immediate execution so I figure being too obvious about either getting boosted by or being the one doing the rituals would get you on a lot of unofficial shitlists.
>>97833448>>97833661To understand how prolific and insidious the Wyrm is, you need only look at this book art. The videogames you're playing, the fast food you ate last Thursday, and even your clothes are tainted. Hell, White Wolf specifically labels its in-universe equivalent Black Dog as tainted. It's practically inescapable.Modern WtA doesn't dare continue this theme, primarily because it operates an offensive logic. I have heard Gaia described as a "trans exclusionary eco-fascist bigot" and there is no reason that shouldn't be the case. However, this is unacceptable in a contemporary sense because you can never dare to portray something like that as positive or worth fighting for by anyone or anything. This is the downfall of World of Darkness: It can no longer be truly dark. You can no longer portray something people believe is objectively good as potentially dangerous or corrupting. We live in a world dominated by naive useful idiots glued to electronic devices that spoonfeed them a moral code.We live in that World of Darkness now. Pentex won.
>>97832323>I like the fact that Werewolves think Vampires are all wyrm lackeys, but Sense the Wyrm only pings Vampires humanity 6 and under...There are differing viewpoints, and probably adopted at convenience. A Red Talon is going to see a vampire as a Weaver lackey with or without Wyrm taint. The vampire concept of Humanity is very much still at odds with what the Garou are all about. A lack thereof is a descent into the Beast which is surely associated with the Eater-of-Souls.

Hello elegan/tg/gentlemen,Bit of an odd question, but, I am travelling from USA to Europe and I will visit over there a friend of mine who is into /tg/ stuff and lives over there now. We have a rule of not bringing gifts to eachother, but nonetheless I wanted to bring something, maybe not in excess of 10$. What could I bring him? Preferably something that he cannot get in Europe or is more expensive there. Any ideas?Thanks in advanceTL;DR cheap stuff /tg/ related which is more expensive or had to get in Europe than the USApic unrelated
bring him deez nuts
>>97833049>We have a rule of not bringing gifts to eachotherFollow your rule. Your visit is the gift.
You're an American. Bring him a gun
Anything that is popular enough is also available in Europe. Assuming you have enough prep time, look around /awg/ for the manufacturers list. There are some indie mini makers that don’t sell across the pond (or the shipping costs are insane). For example, I found this old school manufacturer that I had shipped to my ex-gf uncle’s and I picked it up when we visited last summer.
>>97833049Pro Acryl paints maybe? Those are made in USA if I recall correctly.But then again they're liquid so maybe they'll get stopped during your molestation by the TSA at the airport. A good reaper miniature you think he will like possibly?I'm not sure beyond that.

I feel like even though there is a bit of a surge in popularity for the medium, the actual art of rules writing might be slipping away. We haven't lost it yet, but there may have been some stagnation.What exactly makes a wargame/TTRPG's rules good?And what is the most "retard proof" method of slowly or even hastily (if possible) to learn to be a good writer of wargame/ttrpg rules?
>>97820580>What exactly makes a wargame/TTRPG's rules good?Playtesting.
>>97820642>Stuff like that. Figure out what you want the system to do, then design mechanics around that.Any more general rules of thumb when writing game rules? I was under the impression that it was going out of style like arcade machines.Seems I've been badly wrong here and I am okay with that.
>>97824410If you're going to have a common mechanic, reference the page number it can be found on when it comes up. This helps with people understanding that mechanic.Be concise; if you can use fewer words to clearly convey meaning, do so.Don't feel the need to be flowery or use more intricate words because you can (ironic I know given how I'm writing this). Nothing wrong with it, but again it improves readability for the layman.If you can simplify a mechanic without losing its purpose, do so. There's no point other than being pretentious in having bloated mechanics with additional steps that serve no practical purpose. This isn't to say you need to dumb down everything, but that any mechanic you do add should have meaning in every part of it that actively contributes to some part of the system.Don't be afraid to take inspiration from existing systems you enjoy and put your own spin on things. Maybe there's a mechanic you think is good but flawed, and you take that and make it better which in turn makes it your own. Mechanics cannot be copyrighted, only names.Know the tone of the system; if it's going to be a lighthearted adventure game, don't be afraid to be a bit casual or cheeky in how you write things to endear the system to the players (so long as it doesn't obfuscate the intended message or mechanics). If it's a darker tone, then be sure to impart that through the text and mechanics. How a book is written says a lot about it.Also, TTRPGs are all over the place. There's probably thousands if not millions of free ones available in google drives here or there in a document format, there's ones you can find on various sites like DriveThruRPG, occasionally a new one gets dropped on something like kickstarter and actually gets produced. The market has shifted from major publishers to indie games, and quite frankly indie RPGs tend to have better mechanics than anything put out by a major corporation.
>>97820743This, 100% Also, you can't just limit your playtesters to friends and people you know. That's decent for starters, but you need to get opinions from people completely outside of your circle, with different experiences and tastes and who won't hestitate to give you criticism. Also a very crucial crash test for checking how well written your rules really are is getting people who have 0 prior experience with your game and 0 personal rule explanation from you to play some games by themselves based only on the written rules you've provided.Often you can be genuinely surprised how unclear some rules that seemed obvious to you can be when somebody completely different looks at them. Or what sorts of weird loops and exploits people can notice in them. >>97824410>I was under the impression that it was going out of style like arcade machines.Seems I've been badly wrong here and I am okay with that.It's a bit of a weird situation really. Writing new games isn't dying out in the slightest, there's a shittonne of new stuff being written all the time to the point when the market is in fact a bit oversaturated and it's hard to get your system noticed unless it's very original/has great art/has good marketing (preferably all 3).The situation is worse with wargames than with TTRPGS, since in their case there's also the issue of producing the physical components and getting people to buy them, but still, there are new ones coming out.But at the same time, the market is still very much massively dominated by a very small number of "big name" games, mostly D&D and 40k, arguably more than ever, which makes any smaller game incredibly niche and might may it seem like they dont' exist at all, if you're not specifically interested in them
>>97829098>The situation is worse with wargames than with TTRPGS, since in their case there's also the issue of producing the physical components and getting people to buy them, but still, there are new ones coming out.Where can one start on learning to make proper wargame rules?

>>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.

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.

>>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.

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 ?
Any new and exciting JC release ? Nochet Noir, Rhigos doko ? Is Ian Thomson done with his Pavis grand plan re-release project ?
>>97832958I couldn't tell you. I've only recently started buying the new books for glorantha after realizing I was behind by several years. The cult books specifically. As far as I can tell, their still working on the Gods of Glorantha book and I hear people constantly meming on the "coming soon" tm statements.
How was Runequest WarlordsI was hoping it would attract new players to the ttrpg
