Previous thread: >>97680129GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.TQ: what's your least favorite disadvantage for a player to take?

Is there ANY miniature wargame that isn't insanely expensive? I'm talking about things you can buy in a box and play immediately, not "print your own minis" bullshit or things where you're forced to use proxies cause official models don't exist.
>>97827739>america is the best and most free.at this point i think we should stay on topic.This is GW, GW is doing this and it is a BRITISH company.England is unfree and gay, i don't know why you'd go out of your way to defend especially because i think it effects the end result.

>>97829248Nigger, that's how value works. Its comparative. You can cope all you want but its still low cost. Get over yourself.
>>97833059Everything is cheap if you compare it to the most overpriced miniatures in the market.
>>97831474>>97831664admittedly it might just be nostalgia on my end but I'd probably just use the old 2001 version of the rules myself since they've always felt like the most in depth, though again that might just be nostalgia goggles clouding my mind

>>97832942Roll for the Galaxy is the one game in our collection that grew on us the most over the years. Two players only. Takes us less than twenty minutes to play without expansions. Takes longer to put it back in the box than it does to setup. The cups suck but yeah if you're rolling those tiny bugger dice by hand they're a bit small but then again some turns you're rolling like twelve or more dice. It depends on your engine. I wouldn't honestly recommend the game to anybody these days but it will never leave our table rotation. I can't think of any game that gives that us that many decisions to make in such a short session.
>>97833140>Takes us less than twenty minutes to play without expansions.I have a friend who is into Race for the Galaxy and we can play it in 10 minutes.
>>97829260Some groups are just like that, went to one last week and they had stuff like Cranium set up
>>97829260>Ask a shop if they had Hansa Teutonica big box>"Yeah, that's a lot heavier than what we usually carry"This place also stocks Vital Lacerda games so I have no clue what the fuck that even meant.
>>97828161it's a light game. not as elegant as knizias, but only a bit harder to teach. you go fast by matching a bunch of symbols together from up to three cards from your hand, plus one from a shared crowd card. there are a number of suits with abilities like cornering, healing, and attacking. whenever you take an action in a suit you advance its skill marker. depending on the crowd's whims you have opportunities to advance the skill marker double. once the skill markers start landing in the bonus zones, your speed when you take those moves gets much much stronger. it turns a game of simple hand optimization into constant tough value judgements of when to prioritize upgrades over your current position. there's not a ton of player interaction, but the mind games around when to shield from attacks and using whips to maximum effect based on position do enough for mevery timeless vibe and plenty thematic for my tastes

>>97834240If not objectively true, many if not most werewolves probably believe that. The only exceptions to this are vampires that have achieved Golconda, which Garou have observed sending Banes fleeing just with their presence. If there is a single class of vampires that Garou would likely refrain from attacking that'd be it.
>>97832624It'll be a mess and I'm curious to see what they'll do. I'm sure they'll make everything worse. Imagine the retcons...
>>97834100>surely associated with the Eater-of-SoulsIIRC in woof cosmology a vampire's Beast was actually a literal shard of the Beast-of-War. Eater-of-Souls kinda does make more sense tho.
>>97834280This is a bit of an asspull on my part, but I think that might just be projection. The Garou look at the frenzy of a vampire and see Rage, so they ignorantly believe it comes from the same place. A Wight is not just a font of endless violence but a cruel and dangerously keen predator. If it knew how to commit diablerie before wassail it will do so if possible.

Hey /tg/ I have a problem. One of my players is a genuine incel. He's 27 and I'm pretty sure he's never had sex. He definitely hasn't gotten laid in a while. He's not really ugly just kinda weird and awkward. I feel bad for him. But he is taking his extreme thirst out in the game. >every time his character, a human eldritch knight, comes back from our adventures he always tries to play up the angle of "we saved the town, where are the girls to suck my dick as thanks?">he constantly talks about how his character is 6 foot 2 (he's 5 foot 8 irl)>he talks out of his ass a lot about medieval times and says that peasant girls were way healthier than modern women.>says how farmers would be begging to marry their lithe 17 year old daughters to him>he talks about medieval demographics and criticizes the DMa works building (which is actually kinda shit to be fair) >you can just tell how excited he is talking about how there should be a dozen villages between these two cities on the map, like he is stopping just short of talking about how many nubile virgin farm girls are there for his fighter to fuckWe tried talking to him about it but he twisted it around to make the rest of us sound like we were fucking gay or something. Also his character is too important to the story to kick him, and running him as an NPC would suck the fun out of it since there's be a lot of the DM just roleplaying with himself while the rest of us watch. So....any advice? Its not worth ruining the game over by kicking him, and nothing is so blatant to be a clear social violation, but the dude is just oozing incel energy and I feel like I should subtly suggest to the DM something that will set his head on straight, and possibly help cure his mindset. Any ideas?
>>97833928>One of the PCs is a total dickhead, played by a manchild... and the problem is?
>>97833928>>every time his character, a human eldritch knight, comes back from our adventures he always tries to play up the angle of "we saved the town, where are the girls to suck my dick as thanks?"If funny, haha. His character can pay for them.>>he constantly talks about how his character is 6 foot 2 (he's 5 foot 8 irl)Cool. Most characters will be well fed and nutritioned, so that's not an unreasonable stature.>>he talks out of his ass a lot about medieval times and says that peasant girls were way healthier than modern women.Remind him that you really don't fucking care about historic, this is a fantasy game.>>says how farmers would be begging to marry their lithe 17 year old daughters to himTell him to masturbate before coming to games nights then.>>he talks about medieval demographics and criticizes the DMa works building (which is actually kinda shit to be fair) Migration and trade did exist, and unless lore says otherwise, will probably exist in this setting. Any big city will have multiple ethnicities to spy, don't be a fag who insists cities must be fully monoethnic.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97834174>We tried talking to him about it but he twisted it around to make the rest of us sound like we were fucking gay or something. It's not about being gay or faux-purity (we all wank). It's about sidetracking the plot with unnecessary horniness.Even in a dedicated erpg, where horniness is anticipated, sex scenes are a terrible idea because they derail the session and take up game time.Also his character is too important to the story to kick him, and running him as an NPC would suck the fun out of it since there's be a lot of the DM just roleplaying with himself while the rest of us watch.Well that's your stupid idea. You can just cut him out and fudge still. If your game is as shitty as it seems to implicate itself to be, a bit of 'rolling with it' won't do anything too bad.Kill off his character. Fucking do it. Flip the script.
>>97833928>my player is... engaged with my worldbuilding and is interacting with the NPCsBuddy, if you consider that a problem player you have no idea how bad things can be. Tell him that you're not comfortable with the way he talks about sex all the time and that those themes aren't going to be something you want to go into at the table. If you're giving other players girlfriends and romantic side stories then, well, you've already made your bed and now you need to lie in it with him.I'm going to end this with some sanctimonious bs about how if he harasses anyone in real life in YOUR house where YOUR wife with lopsided tits lives then you BETTER kick his ass to the curb.

I am playing old CoC starting with 2E, I play solitaire TTRPGs because everyone is a fucking retard who wants social lube and "good" times doing things for laughs rather than trying to roleplay or seriously do anything.I finished the Haunted House with relative ease, my characters didn't figure out the sunlight, but we dealt with everything without death or going insane. Which makes sense as its the tutorial.However, the 2nd scenario is very confusing. How is anyone supposed to "win" in this scenario? There is no clear way to stop the ritual. The rules are clusterfuck of a mess, which is fine as long as there is a way to win. Combat is a no go because of the Mi-Go's super high armor. The only thing I can think of is that you are supposed to run away to tell the authorities and fuck outta there and say "it's someone else's problem" which actually will result in the certain doom of the town at the hand of Ithaqua because they are doing the ritual every night with a 28% chance of success to cause a massive blizzard and snow to kill all the town, then set up a mining camp there. My characters thought that the hillbilly was key to stopping the ritual and killed him in combat, but afterwards died to all the Mi-Go's hunting them down, carrying them into the atmosphere and all meeting their death through lung explosion.Is this common in CoC? Is this how most of the scenarios and stories are?
>>97834275My main question here is how did anyone manage to beat this scenario successfully.
How does horror work in a TTRPG?

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.

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
