What age is it appropriate to let children open booster packs? In America, gambling is restricted to people 21 and over. Buying booster packs of Pokemon, Yugioh, etc however, all unrestricted.
>>97380251I'd say over 500 years old (legally verified) should be OK. Same for gachaslop.
>>97380251Opening booster packs is only gambling in the minds of faggots who think you must always play the most optimal strategies and that the only thing of worth in a game is the monetary or competitive value of the cards. Little Timmy wants to look at cool monsters, strong warriors, and wondrous vistas and learn to play a game that features them. If you think of boosters as gambling, then it's because you don't value the low-power experience and only care about chase cards. Kids don't often have that conception of their games and instead just enjoy opening the packs to see what they get. Do you have any concept of the wonder I felt as a child when my grandparents would buy me stray packs of Yugioh or Pokemon cards? I had no idea how to play the games properly, but I appreciated them nonetheless and was happy to receive them. I eventually learned how to play them and several other games, but I still have fond memories of cracking the packs and the value of the cards didn't enter into the equation for me.
>>97387630We know you're just interested in grooming children into believing gambling is natural and OK.

>>97386213also felt bad for my opponent
>>97386213Im just playing IRL a bit.
>>97386311Lorwyn's fun. I can't imagine my first Sealed event on Arena will treat me half as well as my paper prelease pool did though.
>>97387740Went with my brother and we won 16 packs between us. We both had a great run. I felt like my draft was meh. It was rakdos goblins with only 2 rares. But I somehow managed to win with copious burn spells and going surprisingly wide. I was borderline a fucking control deck. So ya cant wait to get insta destroyed first arena limited I do.
It fucking sucks.Long live V20.That's the thread.
>>97387541>2eR2e Revised? did revised got a 2nd edition or you're just shitposting? besides V20 is just a neat compilation the rest are too hard to get physically
>>97387541It's just a compilation with a fix here and there that can be ignored. So even if it's useless if you already have the previous version it's not trash like you're claiming. It was a basic remaster of the work to keep it alive.
>>973876402eR is how we spell 2nd Edition Revised. The last official version.>>97387656A. False.B. Not every option on Earth is supposed to be included in every single chronicle. Many of those options are intended to supplement specific chronicles. They aren't supposed to be "compiled" because they aren't all supposed to be player options all at the same time.

>>97387407it's pretty rude but as long as they're paying attention to dialogue I guess it's ok
>>97387407Yes. Fucking around on your phone is extremely rude. Playing a fucking videogame instead is bafflingly rude.
>>97387407You get out what you put in. I DM a 6 person group. I see every person at my table you describe. I dont necessarily expect you to be sitting on the edge of your seat if Im doing something one-to-one with another player. If you make the effort, Ill make the effort. With larger groups, you can leave the session feeling like 'which kid did I ignore tonight?'. I think you need to look deeper than what you just see because as the dungeon master, youre going all the time. Players dont necessarily have to do that. Ask yourself these things: does the player need reminded of things constantly? Do turns screech to a halt because they didnt plan ahead? Do they do things in-game that make no sense in any context? Those things can help you gauge player engagement. Its worth noting that my players, despite being seemingly distracted, are all very aware of the game, the story, and whats going on. I could be lucky though.
>>97387354Maybe if the pencil had been the result of stealing decades of work, destroying a forest, and destroying a small town's economy, you might be making an apt metaphor.
Next week, the party will continue on their mission to seek out and potentially destroy a hobgoblin war camp. Turns out that they’ve set up shop in an ancient and no longer functioning adamantine forge (the party has a chunk of mythril ore) and they’re using Goliath slaves (one party member is a Goliath, and this is his tribe). I’m trying to gauge how the party is going to go about this because even though I know for a fact that they’re bloodthirsty but will probably be more reserved once they realize how many hobgoblins are here. Also trying to find out ways to drain resources through this that isn’t explicitly combat, as well as figuring out a boss they’d have to fight to reactivate the forge that isn’t just a rip-off of Grym from BG3.

>>97386789Talk to long john silver about it, he has a lot of stuff.
>>97386789Let's make this into a daggerheart thread. I want to try it out but I'm wondering how much prep is required and how heavy the cognitive load is on the DM.
>Black Legion no longer hard into Chaos worship, Abaddon sees himself as not a slave and is disdainful of the religious>Iron Warriors see relying on the Dark Gods as a weakness>Night Lords are edgy atheists>Emperor's Children don't care about Slaanesh specifically really, are just concerned with pleasuring themselves and being freaky. Fabius actively hates Chaos>Thousand Sons hate Tzeentch for fucking them and try to fuck him over when they can>Alpha Legion retconned to basically never having been religious at all >World Eaters are crazy and barely verbal anymore>Red Corsairs see relying on Dark Gods as weak and now have a whole cadre of troops that are "free" of Chaos influence>Only Word Bearers and Death Guard seem to actually venerate the Chaos GodsWhy are so few CSM actually religious anymore? Back in the day even your average Alpha Legion boy would be all FOR THE DARK GODS
>>97387179>Iron Warriors see relying on the Dark Gods as a weaknessIron Warriors consider pretty much everything a weakness and use captured daemons as engines, so how is that not in line with their usual vibe? They're hyper-efficient industrial assholes who hate everything and everyone including themselves.
>>97387550Lord Mortkin and other chaos cuckerinos were also like that but Norscans are built different than space manrunes anyway.
>>97387179I thought the whole point was that people who throw their lot in with Chaos and go "hurr durr WE'RE FREE" are all fools being played like a fiddle by the dark gods no matter how powerful and influential they are, up to and including Abaddon himself?Also the Red Corsairs have always had non-Chaos renegade Space Marines hanging around, Huron and his former Astral Claws turned to Chaos but they've been mentioned as having all sorts of pirates and mercenaries and other assorted rebels floating around them for ages now. They've always been the least explicitly Chaos-aligned of the major CSM groups.
>>97387179Religion is dumb IRL because there's no evidence for any of it and people are just believing it because they want it to be true, but Word Bearers are cool because they actually are correct.
>>97387703Chaos gods are real, but are they really gods and not just imprints in Warp, ultimately a natural phenomenon?

I have the Sakuyamon starter deck arriving today. Can I just sleeve it up and take it to a local tournament this evening as it is? New btw
>>97387540yeah it will do okay, very good for a beginner, it has a bit of complexity but I am sure the people there can help with any of the more challenging effects.if you can get a second copy of it so you get x4 of all the cards in it (as some are only x2, you only need x2 of some of them though!) you will be pretty much set to play a competitive meta deckits a very competent deck on its own just 1 copy and the provided build isn't ideal but half the fun is figuring out what the good cards are and the ones you like.hope you have a good time anon!

>>97380844Are tripods technology or living beings? If they're going to be in the "hyperborean critters" book, I imagine they have to be alive in some way, or at the very least maybe fully wild ones. Maybe things like the Combine from Half-Life, where the tripods used by the hyperboreans are weaponized and techified organic tripods?

>>97377517AV is absolutely not a 6-man dungeon, not without significantly widening the halls. Even if you are lucky you rolled initiative, you better hope your frontliners' fatasses just don't block the only entranceway!Though yeah, 6-man groups in general will require some patience.
Any advice for Ruffian Rogue grapple builds? I would love a way to reduce MAP between attacking and maneuvers or something.
>>97384586Combat Grab is your go-to. It adds a grab as a rider effect on a successful second Strike, so you can Strike twice and get a free grab pretty reliably, without ever having to make an attack or Athletics check at your maximum MAP penalty. The two ways to get it are via the fighter archetype (which you can pretty easily qualify for as a ruffian) or the wrestler archetype. Fighter has the added bonus of allowing you to pick up Reactive Strike as early as level 4, which is super valuable.When it comes to taking advantage of the grabbed condition, wrestler has access to Elbow Breaker and Strangle, which are both situational but not terrible ways to mess with opponents if they neglected to escape from your grab the previous turn. Fighter has Dazing Blow, which is incredible, but has two drawbacks: first, it doesn't become available until level 12, and second, it uses your fighter class DC, so the DC for them to avoid being stunned will always be a little easier than if you were a fighter. Still, it stuns even on a success, so it's a powerful option. Both archetypes have access to Snagging Strike, which is a generic free-hand opening Strike.Also, since you're going a free-hand build (in order to take advantage of Combat Grab) and you're a rogue with a billion skill feats, it might be worth considering the Medic archetype. Every group needs downtime healing ]and you've got skills to spare, and Medic gets you some powerful, reliable healing (including self-heal) for combat--and you've got a free hand anyway.
