>>97227842>specially if you count d100 rolls which after all are the same thing multiplied by 5 and thus "broadly compatible".I don't believe there's any d100 system that uses target number, they are all roll under.Please don't start discussions that go nowhere about topics you barely know. I generally agree with you, but your arguments aren't interesting to read.
>>97229771Most big NSR games are free
>>97233496nta but the rolemaster line and all it's clones are d100 + modifiers so they function the same as a d20 system but with granularity other than that i agree with you
>>97233503Which ones are free?
>>97233428>I don't have strong feelings against Troika but I don't find it particularly fun.Makes sense, I hadn't even found anyone who had played it.
Christmas edition▶What is Kingdom Death?Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0AcThe Game is broken up into 3 phases:1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I've decided in the new year I'm going to finally start putting my armor kit survivors together, and I'm going to put half of them in "stereotypical" loadouts and save the other half to immortalize important survivors at the end of campaigns. With that in mind, how does this sound for the stereotypical ones: >Unarmored: Bone Sword, Bone Axe, Bone Sickle + Pickaxe + Bone Darts, Catgut Bow>White Lion: Paired White Lion Katars, Paired White Lion Daggers>Gorment: Gaxe + Knuckle Shield + Gorn, Rib Blade>Silk: Amber Poleaxe, Paired Hooded Scrap Katars>Screaming: Counterweighted Axe, Lance of Longinus>Phoenix: Rainbow Katana, Paired Sonic Tomahawks>Rolling: Digging Claw + Beacon Shield, Juggernaut Blade>Dragon: Nuclear Scythe, Nuclear Dagger>Cycloid: Ink Blade, Skleaver>Rawhide: Cat Gut Bow, Rawhide Whip>Leather: Zanbato, Skullcap Hammer + Leather Shield>Lantern: Dragon Slayer, Bone Club + Beacon Shield
>>97226604idk what this is or anything I just came to say awooga at that picture
Man holy fuck spidicules is just a garbage expansion. No idea how poots is going to fix it in CoD when he's such a fuckup and you basically have to replace everything in spidicules but the fight itself.
I will magnetize my armor sets.Yes, I enjoy suffering.Yes, I am autistic.No, I don't care the vast majority of the GSC and newer expansions are monopose with no customization kits.Yes, I will punch you if you don't pick the goddamn minis by the base (even if they're not magnetized, the base is there for a reason you animal).
>new survivor joins the hunt>about to die, bleeding, only one waist heavy injury remaining, miraculously one minor severe injury, but one more hit and it's over (except waist one more hit)>He has being grab'd and mauled all game, attacked only once (and missed)>one last heroic move, sling the stone and at least wound the beast ONE time>hits the White Lion's Glorious ManeDasdingo wasn't fit for the hunt lads

Each has a special ability while on the field (ex. drummer adds protection from targeting, bass player prevents opponents monsters from attacking other band members, etc.). There's also a field spell that can get upgraded that also grants the archetype benefits: club stage -> auditorium stage -> stadium stage, etc.

>>97238295The intent was obviously to give the squad three versions of gun to choose from, with one "specialist" getting a corresponding heavier version of it. But Jesus fucking Christ did they not manage to communicate that through the wording.
Eldar feet
>>97238067I think this was done because of the old krieg sculpts/ other ig lines like vostroyans and elysians.
Generic ass knives are often on minisBut not Chain Knives, Power Knives, Force Knives, Shock Knives, Thunder Knives etc whyIt's only Swords and sometimes Axes that come in all variations often. In fact I think there is only a Thunder Hammer as far as Thunder weapons go, that's weird
>>97238353Wasting a power source on a small weapon like a knife doesn't make logistical sense. Also there are no distinct "thunder" weapons, TH uses the same molecular destabilization field tech as all the other "power" weapons.

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. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

>>97236446Pretty much. I mean we know he's a duplicitous motherfucker from how he keeps trying to tell people that his nickname belongs to ACKStec DM.I wouldn't put much past him really.
I mean shit, look at his deleted post>aforementioned strawmanning, "everybody i dont like is fishfag" (who originally was 1 guy who got mad because his players in ACKS were exploiting fishmarkets one time)Meanwhile the reality from the archives:https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/94415189/#94427591Is that anyone can go look, see what the deal was and his narcissist rage moment and more importantly how everyone else present was calling him a retard for his attempt at tactical misunderstanding, which is what I think really pisses him off the most.

Since what I am making is inspired by a lot of /tg/ things like chess and dungeon and dragons and board games, I want to see opinions.I am making something like your own tabletop single player battle.The idea is that you have a party of 256 posible characters with their own traits, and then you put them in a map, like chess, and then see them simulate their behaviour.So, my goal is to make an npc simulator, where you're like a dungeon master.Dunno really what I am making, but hopefully anons here like my game.
>>97236396That looks interesting. Do they just walk around and fight? Are you looking for NPCs or RPGs to greentexts to represent characters on the board? What are the rules here?
>>97236464I am figuring out things.My initial idea is to have 16 families of 16 anime isekai girls, and then set up some DNA like traits used for the calculations.Then each girl would have like a hostile or friendly score to each other.And then use that to basically make a battle royale, and my initial idea is that gilrs don't attack first their allies but they attack the ones they hate first.Beyond that, I want to put a level editor where you can summon and spawn, tools and items, and food.The rules are basically a battle royale.
>>97236664Is this like that hunger games thing that was popular for a while?
>>97236396>>97236664A good idea would having something like a stealth and reputation mechanic. If you're having a death battle, seeing someone attack someone you like would probably lower their opinion of them. So some characters should try to single out their target from their allies to quickly eliminate them without too much fuss. Other characters might be more brutish, and openly attack those who they don't like.

>>97237585Well, in SW the legs are a more reliable low-tech option.
>>97237692>I'm fine with Nightsister magic as a concept but it's inherently darkside, a perversion of the force, manipulated to meet a selfish end. Going by what we see Nightsisters do, those who act and use teh Force selfishly go off the rails and become de-facto Sith, those who don't (like Merrin, and potentially even Ventress) are more like Jedi.But I think we really have no fiirm sources either way, and even if we had them, fuck Disney I'm gonnna take from teh setting what Ilike and run with it.>Which means Merrin should act like a darksiderIf you want her to be a Bad Girl, go read that book they retconned.
