Previous thread: >>97011891GURPS 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.Thread question: How often does Bulk come up in your games? What do you do to make it interesting?
>>97182423Correction: I was still applying the x2 wounding modifier from cutting attack to necks for the axe. The actual expected injury is 17.25, or x1.38 the mace damage. Not nearly as good as I previously wrote about but still decent, and a slightly better than average damage can still cripple the legs with one hit.
Any good Pyramids for Syntatic Magic? Anyone have stories of using syntatic magic? Thinking about making it the primary form of magic in my fantasy world.

Doug made a post about Mission X. Looks like he wants to publish some of Dave's fantasy work in order to raise funds for it, then include some kind of lightweight vehicle design system, also written by Dave, in Mission X itself. Although more of David's stuff getting published is generally good, it may mean he is quite busy soon and that may impact the amount of time he has to work on the full vehicle design system. We'll just have to see. On the positive side, seems like Mission X is going to have a lot of content and is still in progress, albeit slower than many of us would like.
>>97182207>>97182433The unfortunate thing is that yes, blunt weapons irl are less lethal than cutting ones (or immediately so, even though you can get grievous organ damage it won't be immediately lethal and incapacitating), unless you're going for the head. The other unfortunate thing is that swing damage is grossly overturned compared to thrusting, and since it's so high, damage multiplier get crazy good. Ideally, there's should be a rule about crippling limbs with blunt weapons being easier through armor. Plate can dissipate blunt impacts extremely well, but limb and shoulder armor is noticeably thinner and the plate articulation is also vulnerable.

>>97179371>Fapping to a [archetype full of beautiful girls wearing lewd alice in wonderland cosplay] card is likely one of my lowest points so far.Huh?
>>97181579Even if the archetype is xenophobic, as long as its restriction says "for the rest of this turn after this card resolves", people will find a way to make them work in any other deck IF it's really powerful. This was a while ago, but the meta shaddoll piles of 2022 were 50-60 card abominations with dogmatika (xenophobic), invoked, eldlich, performage and the few HERO cards needed for DPE/dragoon.
>>97181631I'm having a real hard time wrapping my head around why this seems to be a thing to be given a negative connotation like "parasitic" gives it. A card is weak or virtually unplayable outside of strategies it works with...is that not functionally nearly every card in the game outside of the most absolutely generic cards?
>>97182622Being told how to build a deck by wotc is not very mtg. Theres a difference between >I put token synergies in my token deckAnd>in order for my deck to function I need a critical mass of x mechanic It comes down to flexibility
>>97182622Because the average sunk cost midwit still playing MTG genuinely thinks like this:>These 15 cards in this set all do things when I play spells. I'll put the best 7 in a deck along with good spells. I am good at deck building, WotC surely never intended for these to go together.

Update 7Bad night last night. Really bad. I'll recap best I can.>Prior I implied things were in the works and with me acting as the intermediary. On the planning side things went off without a hitch and I even got word to the North Loup camp for a coordinated attack. Even if that North Camp is still an existential threat to every local except myself. >This attack was meant to be a coup-de-gras against the hunter operation, wiping out remaining supply depots, major lieutenants, and capturing intelligence. It involved a majority of the local community in one aspect or another and most of the assembled war camps. >Number 1; the Marquette Senior High School raid was to be a centre of the broader operation as a consequence of how invested the hunters were in the abomination underneath. This included a lot of vehicles, equipment, and a sizable portion of their actual numbers. With a full three pronged attack that cut out their generators the initial assault was extremely effective. Amazing what some well placed explosives will do beside Tremi tricks and a number of 800 pound murder machines. Despite some serious defences the MSHS was taken in short order. Aided no doubt by a half dozen other attacks across town disorientating them. >The problem began when the remaining "Sabbat" made their move. After a period of disorientation when the Loup (critically, those from the South Camp who wanted to put the 'spirit' back to sleep) began their ritual work the "Sabbat" made their move.>I use air quotes because I don't know what they are now.>The prior unknown vampire which I will now call 'The Cannibal' is a Caitif so twisted by diablerie I don't know what they are, but Quebec calls the Cannibal a 'Baali.'
>>97183259>Regardless of what Cannibal actually is, it, the Ventrue Antribu, the Giovanni, and a small throng of 'Skinned Monstrosities' (which I believe to be something like a shovelhead tactic courtesy of the Cannibal) attacked the MSHS, just when the locals and the South Camp were unprepared and divided across the area. Killed or injured almost everyone of the blood there and wiped out a third of the wolves present.>How were were able to pull this off? We had a rat. >The "Sabbat" after cutting a bloody swathe through the school cornered a bunch of our blood in the excavated space near the \Flesh Mouth,' including the Carnival Coterie. The Cannibal barked and apparently 'Show-Master' opened the door to let them in. Despite that blatant betrayl, thanks to some of the Loup (and my planning for the worst) a good portion of my people managed to escape and actually relayed this to me. As bad as it was because I was a bit paranoid I have half of the community instead of no one.>Critically they also used some of the hunter munitions to light the place up, burning down the school on the way out. While this probably didn't actually do anything to the Clique of northern invaders, it denied them access to the Flesh and stopped their plans for the moment.>Unfortunately this ambush cost us all a lot. We essentially had our numbers cut in half for a second time and the Southern Loup camp is in tatters. Without Big-Pipe-Club they might not even be able to remain functional.
>>97183279>Number 2; The Northern Camp Loup were given a direct path to the Hunter HQ at Saint Christopher's church and they took it. Rolled over the hunters in a two pronged attack and ripped them apart. The leader of the hunters was present there, Father Trenqueval, and personally attempted to resist. When the Loup broke into the church he lit himself and the church up to avoid being taken alive. Something he didn't prepare his subordinates for. After the Church went up with the Father inside they splintered. A handful went on the attack or pulled out to safe-houses, but it would seem the majority began pulling out along the south-road on the Highway. After the wolves finished up there and finished their rampage they withdrew. It seems like the North Camp Wentiko still has plans. Plans they aren't sharing with their cousins in the south Camp.>Otherwise there were a handful of other problems. Hunters tried to attack the local Elysium being guarded by our Toris and caused some serious damage to property and life. A couple of similar like-minded hunters went after the survivors from the school raid but seem to have been driven off by local 'peace-keepers.' A gift horse I won't look in the mouth.>For myself; I spent the better part of the other night stalking through the forest with my new allies hunting after the Malk. Weird experience I'll say, but one that ultimately panned out better than I expected. Turned up a cabin in the woods where the queer trio were holding the Malk. Trying to, anyways. When we kicked the door in they were trying to pry my girl off the ceiling. After a bit of verbal destruction and a rude interruption from the freak with a flower tattoo, we managed to hash out an agreement. Seems they too are here because of the meat-monstrosity. After hashing out an agreement I came away with a few more members of this very odd entente.
>>97183286>Right now Marquette is a bit of an anarchy, city is depopulated, fires being put out mostly by volunteers. No idea where the "Sabbat" are but their intentions remain fixed on the bedrock, and they're like to try again, although it seems those who survived the night still want to throttle them.>A handful of Hunter cells remain scattered across the city. Seems despite their precarious situation they are still dedicated to whatever brought them here. Thankfully this is a few dozen people in compare to the few hundred they started with. Wish I could say I was happy about this. At least I got the Cat back with me.>More updates as they come. Marquette out.>>97176683Not so. Apparently that entire PENTEX network tried buying out NWBP but drove them into private ownership and government contracting to avoid a corporate take-over. >>97174947Yea fuck you too.
And the survivors.>"Miss Q" >[Kicking] Absolutely ballistic about the counter-purge and unholy Freak, has history with it>"Mister Nice Guy" >[Ashed] Apparently was one of the people that got snuck up on at the perimeter, Cannibal ripped him apart and diablerized him>"Mister War Crimes" >[Ashed] Gutted by the Black Knight in the opening move and probably haunting us>"Mister Y">[Kicking] Took some pretty gnarly injuries, but hardy enough that doesn't seem to be an issue, powered by hatred>"HMW" Comment too long.

>>97181041Is it ok to print firstborns so big? He's taller even without a base.I don't want them to be primaris size (It would be weird while fighting actual primaris), but the tiniest magnets I could get won't fit into their wrists if I make them in the original size.>>97182437I like those so much! Are they from ADF?
How hard is it to get this done in the winter? I was thinking of going to my buddy's place, there's like 5 people living there and they're long time friends, and I just lost my job so I figured while I'm waiting to get another one, I could get on learning to use the resin printer. It's next to a window but it's also cold af out right now. Is it easy to build some kind of ventilation tube or is it not worth the trouble? I don't want to jack up their heating bill. Also I have never done a 3D print before but there is a manual and there's always YouTube.
>>97183222Temperature isn't as important for resin printing as it is for FDM, but the window might be a problem, since it cures with UV light.
>>97183262So should I bring it outside? I'm worried about the fumes. And there are curtains. But I still need to get the fumes out somehow.
>>97183274No, you must keep it from UV light. The only UV light that must affect your resin must be the one below the machine's vat.The printer I use is in a room with a ventilator thingy in the wall that take the gases out. We still use a mask tho.Maybe that's the reason I've never had troubles with fumes. Or maybe I'm just exaggerating and they aren't a big deal, as everyone in these threads keeps telling me.
I want to make my own alternative to the classic VtM setting. What parts should I learn from? What parts should I cut to don't commit the same mistakes they made?
>>97172788Just play Requiem, they already did that for you.
>>97172788Don't try to include every single stupid ass monster in all of fiction, and if you do, don't let some other random who hates vampires write the material for them.Don't do 'what if God...was le evil,' it's played out at this point. Decide which religion is right or if none of them are but demiurge shit is as tedious as "we are all stardust" posting at this point.Honestly maybe don't set it in modern times. There's like 3 or 4 centuries of modern history almost no one even kinda uses except GURPS and that one swashbuckling system. Oh and Warhammer Fantasy but WHF isn't set on Earth.
>>97177828>don't set it in modern times
Stay in your niche.
>>97172788Come in with a clear vision of what you actually want, which is probably vampires and a masquerade.Like >>97177828 said, don't make the game the fucking monster mash. If you must add more supernatural elements other than that which is directly related to vampires, keep it simple, rare, and relatively unexplained.Also go research modern horror and how that shakes out like >>97172942 suggests, and don't just retread the exact same themes as the original Masquerade.
I always found it weird that D&D was maligned as witchcraft, satanism, and anti-social. From what I can tell, TTRPGs just increase sociability, problem solving, conscientiousness, and probably improves self-concept through skills and self-esteem. Did any anons here live through Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons or the Satanic Panic? Sorry if this is boring or repetitive to others, but I want to study the social aspects of TTRPGs and how it exists as a subculture. I think, by and large, this is the best board on 4chan because people really care about this hobby and want to help others get into it. Despite the shitposting, I think the community is vibrant and the games I played through Find a Game threads were all filled with genuine, nice people. So it irks me that the Satanic Panic tried to paint subcultures as evil. Maybe it's because people think TTRPGs overlap with extreme music or just teenage entertainment in general.

>>97181456Sounds boring.Focus on sigmarines is part of the problem.They just aren’t as cool as space marines.They’re ok as a containment faction but the constant focus is turning people off the setting.A good AoS video game would be something like kingdom under fire.Play a custom character based on hero model from one of the four grand alliances.Collect units like Pokémon, have a world map where you fight battles kind of like mount and blade but with an overarching campaign story opposed to mercenary shit

Less edgy and they have more about its past and various locations. I really enjoy the civil war it had when they were all cast into Hell and I enjoy the sky politics. On the sad side they're not as edgy or transhumanist(or weird if you'd prefer) as the 2e versions, but still. Pretty great.

Trying to get some meat on my sci fi setting. You come in and ask a question, and I'll answer it as best as I can, or make an answer.The Nations of the galaxy have achieved a level of technology that is divine. No natural process or fundamental law is beyond man's reach. Stars are playthings, megastructures are mass produced, causality, probability, and many other things are manipulated. Neo Babylon, the capital of the Sublime Defense Federation, is hosted entirely in the first man-made dimension. Each Nation’s grasp over their respective populace is ironclad in absolute belief, each a bastion of total unity in the name of their cause. The final regimes of history will rule until the end of all.To quell its own members, the Federation both deploys its own warmachines and Painkillers, superhuman martial artists known as Tenfold Warriors that have come under the Federation's banner. Their surgical strikes keep the galaxy from tearing itself apart or the very universe from being altered by transcendent technology.The Federation, unfortunately, exists for a reason beyond its own members. For even if the Federation's Nations warred among themselves with less constant frequency, the Entity would still exist. The overwhelming tide of sapient biomass that fills the universe completely and encircles this only known bastion of space, the Milky Way. For this purpose, the Federation has created Golems; machines only Tenfold Warriors are able to pilot without dying from the extreme stresses on the body piloting one demands.
Across the galaxy, Golems are known as invincible, nigh divine war machines employed by the Sublime Defense Federation that can push back the Entity. Beyond this, little actual information is shared beyond distant pictures and reports of success or failure. The truth is frightening. Those once immersed in pure ideological reason find themselves surrounded by superstition. Bizarre rules hang over a Golem Hangar like a guillotine blade, trained exorcists walk the halls, and the Golems themselves remain disassembled, chained, and sealed away until needed. The hangers Golems are housed in are blacksites that nothing ever leaves; none know this until they’re already there. Science has pushed into the deepest of boundaries. Something older than the universe has been invoked in Golems.Calamity and strange occurrences wither the world, comets shoot unceasing, men go mad and claim to be prophets of old reborn, once pristine rivers are strangely stained with iron. The Federation shifts with the waning tide of fortune. While normally led by a council of representatives sent by the 9 Major Nations, a temporary leader has been unanimously elected. The King of Neo Babylon is a man of immense skill in all fields, and possessed of immense charisma, raining fire in war and conjuring miracles of statecraft. Golems shall be made in greater numbers than ever before, the legions of machines walk to the edge of the world. The kings of the galaxy heed his call or suffer the wrath of their fellows, though some Nations see far fairer treatment than others. Let those with wisdom and understanding see the signs of the times.
>>97182667>>97182672Okay so it's a mecha setting where kung fu ideologue cyborgs pilot god-machines against the infinite meat-tide, got it.So I'm assuming these "man-made dimensions" have to be anchored to reality in some way, else these zealous nations would've long since withdrawn into paradises of their own devising and slammed the doors shut behind them even without the threat of this Entity, no?
