If you mean you’re more influential than Joe Average, well, that’s kind of a given. If you mean thinking of others as not mattering compared to you, I’ll come to that in a moment.>WiserThis one’s kind of a given, really. As I said with Civilization, living for thousands of years naturally means you’ll be wiser than most. Just remember being wiser doesn’t mean you know everything, and that your goal should be to teach and guide others, and you’ll be fine.>BetterIf we were to take better to mean more capable, then it would be obviously true. However, this is clearly another manifestation of important, the viewpoint of seeing others as not mattering, and it’s here that I think we come to the core of it. Does being a god and thinking of yourself as such mean you have to look down on others? I don’t think so.>Humanity doesn't mean staying human so much as valuing people.Valuing people and remaining connected to them, yeah.

So I bought the hardcopy of this to use as a source book because fuck playing 3.5, but also damn this book got me when I was younger. Has anyone actually run The Mecha Hack or Aether Nexus? If Y, were they functional or even f u n? I'm thinking of ways to get my group who primarily prefer ruleslite games into this besides strapping them to chairs and watching escaflowne until they like it.
This may be an appropriate place to post this. I am foreshadowing a threat from deeper in the dungeon that I'm writing and have found that there doesn't appear to be a B/X statblock for an Aboleth. I checked my AD&D Monster Manual and Fiend Folio and didn't see it there either, but I did find it in my 2e AD&D monster manual. My question is, how much (if at all) do I need to tweak a statblock from 2e in order to fit B/X, or would I be better off just homebrewing from scrap? I understand that certain elements (like XP) are very different and am prepared to adjust those, I'm just wondering if anyone is familiar with any weird trends (like AD&D2e creatures having lower AC or better attacks on average). Google searches exclusively tried to tell me about 5e statblocks.

We had our first game of Fitna yesterday. Syrian civil war of 2012. History was altered as the rebels took over Assad in a brutal conflict. It was fun once the players got the hang of it, I was personally acting as an umpire. One thing that I was left wondering about was the card draw you get from playing the Reinforcements event card. If you draw another event card, can you just keep playing those events or do you have to declare all your events at once and then if you draw any extra those can be used later to generate OP or saved for future turns? It seemed really strong and swingy to chain-draw 3+ reinforcements in a turn into 3 more events. Any Middle-East war veterans here to weight in?
>>97834235As others have said, The Men Who would be Kings is your best option. Sword and the Flame is a very popular boomer era game and is still very popular at conventions. These are the best two, but for your purpose MWWBK is what you're looking for
>>97834575>>97839344>>97840670For bigger battles of that period, is Black Powder 2e the way to go? I will be honest with you, I'm not the most hardcore wargamer around and my friends are definitely too fresh for granular and complex rulesets. I'm not sure if it matters but currently we have people working on Zulu, Brit and Afghan forces. We have a friend that wants to build a small Prussian force of the Franco-Prussian War but I'm not sure how to include him in the mix - guess we will have to go alt-history at some point.
Between Hail Caesar and Warmaster Ancients, which is the better system for 1vs1 games?
>>97841070They are roughly the same game with different goals. Warmaster is more of a game, while Hail Ceasar is much more of a method by which to push toy soldiers around.

>>97839276As opposed to green playing 3 lands per turn?
>>97841858Magic is a resource management game. Having only one or two mana to work with but a lot more cards and probably a lot less health is a novel situation that will probably having me thinking a lot about whether I hold for interaction, play for tempo, or play for value. Knowing MLD might come down might also encourage me to build up my board state in creatures and resource generation. Maybe I'll consider running more rocks. If I run more rocks what other synergies open up to me? It's called thinking about magic versus being a mid-functioning autist who throws a tantrum when he's not in Christmasland.

>>97840633If you say so dude.
>>97840619Looks simple-ish enough, actually.Prana is the stand-in for magical energy of other systems and settings, but more integrated into the world, so you can't just up and banish it from an area without killing everything inside.Mantras are the verbal, and mudras are the somatic components, and yantras are the local take on magical circles. It's all facets of the same system.>>97840592One thing I don't get is the Maya thing. What do you mean by cosmic illusion and illusory realities?Is it just an illusion over the real world? Or is the real world an illusion too, and you simply swap parts for some of your own making?I mean, the latter kinda fits the "Matrix-style" description.Also, magic is mostly subtle and monk-like, I presume?
>>97840195A lot of the animals are different from earth animals in my setting. The few that are unchanged are stuff like rodents, insects, and birds. The main exception are a few random domestic animals that live exclusively within settlements. Everything else follows two main strategies of surviving in the wilds with monsters being a thing. Being durable enough to fight monsters offOr being very very good at evading monsters. Some, like boulder bears, use both strategies depending on the threat level of the monsters in the area. Like if it's a human sized monster with nothing really special about it, the boulder bear will probably stand their ground and fight to disable the monster enough that it's no longer a serious threat. But a very dangerous monster the boulder bear will curl up and use it's natural camouflage to look like a big rock in the hopes the monster will pass through without noticing it. Another example is quite a few snakes have developed octopus like camo that not only changes color but also texture to REALLY blend in.
>>97840882>One thing I don't get is the Maya thing. What do you mean by cosmic illusion and illusory realities?>Is it just an illusion over the real world? Or is the real world an illusion too, and you simply swap parts for some of your own making?>I mean, the latter kinda fits the "Matrix-style" description.>Also, magic is mostly subtle and monk-like, I presume?It means that the actual physical world, the one our senses see, is not the real world. We are simply seeing an abstraction, a mistake of the senses. Like being trapped in an illusion or a VR simulation.Or in more practical terms, the Matrix as a metaphysical framework.
>>97841284Okay, that covers the Matrix-like nature, and it's pretty cool, but where does the magic of the system fit in exactly?Like, in Matrix itself, people could pull stuff off by the virtue of, basically, hacking the system. Is that what this world's magic does for people?Also, *is* there a real world? Like, a physical realm, or is it all illusions or dreams of some godhead?
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.

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?
You guys claim to exalt in humanity no matter what form it takes, but I firmly reject such a stance. I believe being human is a quality and not just a physical matter of fact. If you are human, and don't act in a way that befits the ideal of humanity as something great, if you debase yourself, lower yourself to the behavior of something foul and less than human, something utterly spitting on and squandering the gift and potential of being born human, I simply cannot consider the loss of something corrupt in such a way to be "hatred of humanity."
>>97841495Cosmic Horror had one of the best HFY moments ever, in a weird way.>“Poor Old Ones! Scientists to the last -- what had they done that we would not have done in their place? God, what intelligence and persistence! What a facing of the incredible, just as those carven kinsmen and forbears had faced things only a little less incredible! Radiates, vegetables, monstrosities, star spawn -- whatever they had been, they were men!”It's actually kind of a touching moment, which is weird for Lovecraft. I adore the guy's writing, but "emotional" is the last adjective I'd use for most of his stuff.

I am not constantly pulling Pueblo off my shelf but I have not gotten tired of it. The gameplay is still engaging to me after at least 10 plays.I will add though that I have almost always played with the cult sites and turn order auctions. I prefer them because they force painful choices, but they do also cause the games to be more varied.
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.

>>97833370>>97838556>Is the villain effective?Yeah, I'd say so. It's a colossal serpent-like entity with white fur, rapto-claws, and a wolf's skull for a head. It's completely immobile in the ice, and yet its presence causes insomnia and madness in the research team analyzing it, it may have driven the expedition who found it to suicide, and if Grace's theory is correct, it is causing the sped-up heat death of reality. It's the best kind of weird and unearthly that I like in my horror villains, and even more interestingly, it seems like it might be some especially weird take on the Yeti given it was found under the Mahalangur Himal and is noted to have "white fur".>If you had to pick a moment that really scared you, which would it be?Not necessarily a "scared me" moment, but the idea of 'something' being the direct cause of entropy as a phenomenon and being capable of speeding it up is a pretty freaky scenario to be stuck in. You can't do anything to stop it, you can't reason with it, and you can't slow it down. Something that should take sextillions of years is going to be happening in under five, and you'll be forced to experience it in crystal-clear detail.>Is there anything you feel could have been expanded upon?Maybe a little more lore behind the Specimen and some other characters for Grace to really bounce off of, but that's about it on my end.>What would you change?As above, I'd add other characters for Grace to interact with, more details on the Specimen, and some more speculation/theorizing regarding it.>Would you use it as inspiration for a game?Comment too long.

>>97833370I love the story, but I'm not sure if I would include it in my games given its reality destroying nature. I might consider using it as a final monster or an overarching evil.
>>97836065Yeah, the scenario I’m currently working on started that way. The set piece is an astronomer seeing Ghatanothoa through his telescope and being instantly petrified. Love the idea that in Lovecraft’s universe, star watchers had to really worry about seeing the wrong thing.
>>97833345>>When is the last time you've hit your group with a good old-fashioned ghost haunting?I always felt like ghosts were a really good b-plot or flavor for a horror adventure about something else. EG the ghost of a murder victim puts the characters on the trail of a serial killer by appearing in their dreams. I guess I'd struggle to do something with a ghost as the main entree of a horror story. I mean, players might find it tedious to roleplay being woken up by footsteps in the hallway or being expected to protect an exorcist from poltergeist activity, if that makes sense.
>>97840722That's pretty cool. I hope it goes well. I ask because I've had an idea for a setpiece in an opera house/grand theater where players walk forward and the curtains open to reveal corpses strung up like puppets on the stage.
