Welcome to the New School Revolution General, the thread dedicated to games derived from the OSR movement.>What is NSR?>NSR is a subcategory of the OSR, it mostly follows the same play style but experiments further with the mechanics and settings.>Broadly NSR games have a gm, a living world, are rules light, deadly and focus on emergent narrative, interaction and exploration.>What is this thread NOT for?Meta discussions or drama of the games and its creators aka shadowboxing with twitter, reddit and the OSRG (frens with osrbros)>stay on topic>gamesShadowdark, into the odd, mausritter, cairn, mörk borg (and its hacks), dungeon crawl classics, mothership, knave, troika!, whitehack, blackhack, old school essentials (we know this is just a retroclone), etc. >links, resources, more games!, etc:https://pastebin.com/0W8WmbCk (BROKEN we're working on it) Comment too long.

what's the consensus on hard endgame conditions (like Mork Borg's Calendar of Nechrubel)?curious if you prefer the impending doom mechanics that mechanically force the campaign to a close, or if you find them too restrictive for long term play. does having a literal countdown to the apocalypse enhance the tension, or does it just turn the game into a sprint that kills the sandbox feel?post favorite "the end is nigh" mechanics or tell me why they're a gimmick
>>97207046I think it's an alright concept in theory to have strong impending doom as part of the game world but a shitty execution to have it be inevitable in a gameplay style that is designed to facilitate living worlds and player agency. It's like they wanted to outdo Death Frost Doom but never actually played anything to completion.
>>97185621>>97187396That's because Troika is like half a napkin doodle for a surreal world wrapped around a bunch of torn up wacky OSR ideas that were haphazardly taped back together into a "game". Even if you wanted to do the rest of the work that the designer refused to do before selling his stale turd of a game, what you actually get from the material in there is just incoherent bullshit.
>>97213637Real. I don't think I've ever even seen a Troika play report, let alone one that's from an ongoing campaign.
Cyberdark looks cool as fuck, what I’ve seen of it and read through of it, and even the little demo the put out, very cool.However, this RPG company has almost no track record. What they have made looks like trash lmao.I’m conflicted.

>>97188452To continue more Lazlo fluffing:>Bone Brothers (or The Boners)A biker gang that rides around Lazlo and its satellite communities. Too soft to do the Coalition Goosestep, too hard to so the Lazlo trot, the Bone brothers dont quite fit in. They take up riding in packs on whatever assorted vehicles they can manage to afford or repair favoring motorcycles which they see as an extension of personal independance. They keep a loose military structure in terms of hierarchy, although they make a distinction between their rank in the CS and their rank in the gang.They are to be summed up, riotous oafs. Communities are leary when they here the parade of their bikes and most will decide to close shop early as they come to town. On a good day, they will ride up to the local bar, eat and drink anything not nailed down, and then roll away leaving a mess behind. At worst they are a gang pushing a drunken version of Coalition Law and killing anyone protesting. They argue that crimes committed by members are the fault of the individuals and that the Boners are not responsible, others argue that they are not-so-secret insurgents trying to weaken Lazlo for an invasion. The Brothers are given more slack from authorities under the premise that they are just adjusting to this new life, and roving bands of fighting men does suppress random banditry.What they don't know is that both opinions are true. The Boners are in the middle of a power struggle between the current leader, Bobby Robinson, and his honor guard and a fiery new comer, Ronnie Bibbles. Bobby wants the gang to be an outlet for motor heads and treating soldiers who were made to do bad things. Ronnie is a secret CS spy and wants to take over the brotherhood and create a crime cartel focusing on drug trafficking and political terrorism.
>>97206912>boner used to mean 'a mistake'>now it means 'an erection'>in 109 PA...?We had a vampire biker gang in our game.
>>97208087That is very metal. I'm stealing that.
>>97182572I love my Alaskan, racist, cannibal snake wife!
>>97206912To finishBone Brothers are equipped with personal vehicles as it is a note that to be a member you must have a personal vehicle. Motorcycles are preferred. Members wear common light or medium MDC armor with their gang colors or important emblems glued on their backs. They do however stay well armed with over 50% still owning CS rifles they defected with. It is rumored that they have a dug out headquarters where a skull walker or DH transport is being repaired.If you encounter the Brothers on the road it is important to keep your cool. Both Bobby and Ronnie followers are easily provoked to violence but only the Bobby faction who are ardent about not killing civilians. Ronnie faction members are encouraged to lie and present as well meaning until they strike, however, this order is often ignored as gangs prefer to charge in leveling laser fire before they know what's happening.I have been trying to post on this board for DAYS and the new captcha keeps bugging out on me. Are you guys having problems with it?
I'm having a happy 12/12 day. Time to play real MtG(tm). Cheers to happy memories and forgetting the state of current Mtg for a while.
>>97206246You're losing to Swords because you aren't flooding the board with early attackers. 4 Swords in the deck they still are less likely to draw 1 single Swords than not. If they remove early creatures they're asking to get rolled by larger creatures, and if they save the Swords you continue to pressure themYou're losing to 4 mana Parallax enchantments and Replenish because you aren't running mana denial. Rishadan Port and Wasteland have 0 mentions in this thread but are the format defining cards for aggressive decks. These cards are insanely good and they only take land slots. Aggro decks win their matches against Replenish and Enchantress by playing out creatures followed by attacking the mana base to delay them from resolving critical spells.Elves is not advantage over Goblins in the match up because of Tranquil Domain, which Goblins can and does run (so does literally every green deck). The difference is Tangle Wire, which denies mana and plays while allowing the Elves player more time to set up their board and get damage in. Some builds of Replenish try to play around this with Frantic Search.Fair creature decks do quite well against Enchantress and Replenish because they put a clock on the other deck in order to prove the win or lock out, and are able to run mana disruption or removal to slow them down enough. This is what Terrageddon does after sideboarding, it takes out Oath and instead tries to flood the board with Treetop Villages, Meddling Mage, and elephant tokens while also disrupting mana.Welcome to Premodern noob, now silence your dogshit opinions until you play for longer

I wish I could offer more suggestions but holidays just seem to be a point for the general and wod-posting to teeter off. >>97214195Is all of this just documentation for your sessions?

>>97214249>>>97214195 (YOU) >Is all of this just documentation for your sessions? That's a very based amount of tismI wish, it's actually the Epsy files and I find it hilarious how they just REDACTED everything with black bars worse than an SCP article. People that say we couldn't have a masquerade in modern day are delusional, more so now with AI. It would just go from being cover-up based to being disinformation based.

>>97214130Man after reading this list I remembered that after reading hundreds of these series it's rare or at least I don't recall any with a satisfying conclusion.My general feeling for these is that they have a promising, enjoyable start, maybe even conclude the initial premise (first revenge target, first evil abuser/conspirator owned) and then they fall flat or just continue aimlessly slowly fading away.Not calling out any of these in specific, just my musing based on my experience.Then again this isn't specific to the genre. It seems like every author has a wet dream of being the next One Piece style never ending slopfest.
>>97214362Mostly a structural problem with manga and LNs publications.>>97211438I don't even think the problem is really the worldbuilding, it's more the "overpowered MC gets pussy for nothing" route that kills interest.For example, something that had much wrting problems but was an interesting read because it tried offering another perspective was JK Haru wa Isekai de Shoufu ni natta (even if the protagonist was quite a bitch, pun intended).
>>97214362Most of it's due to their origins as web novels. A large number of them are adapted from Narou, which is basically like the reddit of web publishing for Japan, meaning that trends and upvotes and user engagement are the primary goals to success. Which means you also have all the worst aspects of such a website, such as blatant trend following, in-jokes and site specific culture and cliches abound, and everyone milking any cash cow until they're pulling out blood. All to get noticed for an adaptation and to jumpstart one's career.
>>97194772>WritingI mean, it isn't just writing, it's half RNG and half a bunch of writers reacting to the RNG to parse it, which is something incredibly novel for structuring a television script.

Alright neopets homies. My local shop has the fire uni, starry acara, and champs of meriddell decks in stock. Im buying these to use for a social rec program so I just need to know if theyre a normal purchase or any weird caveats that would make it hard for adults with poor literacy to figure out with a bit of assistance.They also dont sell packs individually which is annoying, going to have to proxy a bunch
>>97214230Hot take time, but if I made Nisei and had to change the name because I found out it wasn't inclusive and doing all that bullshit to rebrand and then constantly doing this shit... then by continuing at all and not cleaning house organizationally is deeply hypocritical and speaks to how absolutely fucking out of touch and gross that organization is.Just your average virtue signalling that ruins it for everyone who is sincere>accountability for everyone but meeee!!!!
>>97214145>The Lusty Argonian has entered the chat
>>97214153Fire and Starry were from set one and are very simple decks. The Meridell starter is from set 3 and is much stronger, featuring equipment synergy with a bit of extra math that may be a bit trickier to parse for anyone who struggles with basic math. One equipment, for example, gives +1 attack for each Meridell equipment. This effect stacks, so two copies would grant +4 attack (each one seeing two copies), and three copies grant a ridiculous +9. Mix that in with different effects and I could see young people or those with math deficiencies run into a slight problem, but it's also probably a really good teachable moment if somebody is there to explain.I'm around if you have questions. <3
