Abathur! Ideally he'd be an army buffing hero who isn't fantastic in a fight but makes the units he deploys alongside significantly better.

>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG by R. Talsorian Games, set in a (then) future inspired by film noir and the dark science fiction films and books of the late 20th century. It focuses on simulationist gameplay and lethal near-future combat.

Cyberpunk RED is the latest edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG, set after the devastating Fourth Corporate War. It focuses on more balanced, streamlined gameplay and is currently supported by R. Talsorian Games.

I don't think that's true. it's especially not true post interface 5, where there's about a dozen ways to shit out dice. something has humble as a vanilla shotgun can become scary quickly with just EQ and explosive rounds, which is achievable at chargen. even archery is pretty good with only minor investment now, again at chargen.

and besides, the most OP thing in red has always been smart glasses with lowlight and a handful of flash/smoke/damaging grenades. until you get fullborgs in the mix, that doesn't change much
>>
I might have actually undersold archery a bit. A bow with a heavy string and in kyudo stance is the highest source of single target damage in the game at 7d6. make it EQ and that's only 750 EB and your ammo is reusable. With explosive arrows you do crits roughly 3/4s of the time you hit on 7d6 damage, with only a -1 to hit penalty and the inability to hit heads. If you use high precision arrows, you can instead make aimed shots at a -5 penalty and 7d6 damage. even targets in metalgear will start to feel that pretty quick. Of course it's a niche build and requires investing double points in martial arts, but really martial arts is hardly a bad compliment to archery anyway!
>>
>>97822139
Even with the latest splat, the game still heavily incentivizes Linear Frame min maxing. It's nice to finally have other options after 6 years, but alot of the strongest guns still require Body 12 and no way to achieve it aside from frames.
>>
>>97822191
Sometimes I think about being Cyber-Legolas but I love guns way too much.
>>
>>97822200
how did I know I was talking to someone who would bring up linear frames? yeah if you spend a chunk of euro and humanity you get better. combat cyberware makes you good at combat in the cyberpunk game, news at 9. it's hardly minmaxing lol. is this the part where you bring up martial arts + linear frame?

Pigheaded Edition

>What is Trench Crusade?
An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, and it's very Blanchitsu.

>What's the QRD on the background?
The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.

>How do I get started?
All the files are free online:
https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/

They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more. For posterity's sake, the old mega will still be kept active even if it's unlikely to need updating: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQ

>Notice how no one shit talks the gameplay?
That can also mean that nobody here is able to get games which is a common problem with anything that isn't one of the big shots like Warhammer and DnD etc.
Also apparently Tabletop Simulator doesn't count so if nobody at the LGS wants to try TC then there's no way to dodge the dreaded nogames label.
>>
>>97821376
>apparently Tabletop Simulator doesn’t count
That was one troll and a random shit poster having a meltdown last thread, TTS is not as good as the real thing but it counts. If you can’t get anyone at the LGS or one of your friends to play then it’s an ok substitute
It will always be hard to get people to play tabletops, the hobby is smaller than you think if you ignore 40k and dnd players since they refuse to try anything else
>>
>>97820513
>TQ
By just getting people to play the game as >>97821296 said, people shit-talk the lore, the religion and the developers but the gameplay is very fun. Also I really do not know how widespread the "TC is a woke scam" thing is, only a couple of guys at the LGS had an idea of what was going on in social media.

I got some of my no-tabletop-wargames friends to play the game by just pitching the premise, the artwork, the campaign progression aspect of it and telling them you can play it in less than an afternoon. Then we had our first introductory game at the LGS and we've been playing since.
>>
I play this game once a week and have really enjoyed playing as Heretic Trench Ghost, Heretic Naval Raiders, and Iron Sultanate (no subfaction).
I often have Leo pointing/Cap on the Helicarrier moments of recognising references to scripture, liturgy, and history.
Most of what I know about the game I learned by playing, but I have seen snippets of lore here and there. It is a fun way to spend an evening with friends and I am glad there's threads for it here!
>>
>>97820456
>TC needs to recognize this if it wants to grow as an IP
This mindset is the actual problem.
TC was never designed to be anything more than a niche passion project made by a few guys for fun.
It getting out to the unwashed masses unironically is the biggest problem. If it had stayed among people who actually played tabletop skirmish games, you would have questions like
>How do we repair public perception of Trench Crusade?
because the people involved would know what it is on about.
Actual, real life faggots and mental fuckcases learning about the game is the biggest issue.
They should not have interacted with the 'fanbase' at all. Just release the game, the art, the lore, do not elaborate.

Hypotheticaly, if one where to break into a vampires lair during daysleep with a permanent marker to draw penises and swear words on the princes face, would they get a check to see if they wake up?
Also woukd the markings persist or would the campires body reset them as they wheren't there when he was embraced?
>>
>>97821501
filth remains as far as I know so the marks would remain, I believe
and all but the lasombra *can* see themselves in a mirror so I would hope they would still check their face regardless of their mortality

an old enough vampire might be arrogant or not care enough to though
>>
>>97821501
Permanent markers aren't permanent so that should persist until wiped off.
Even less permanent is the continued existence of the artist should they be discovered.
>>
>>97821551

The princes desire for retaliation isn't an immeadiate factor for the PCs to worry about personaly, just part of a bigger idea for a game right now.

Which probably remind Stillstorm of her homeworld.
She is old by wartime Loroi standards, and has seen generations of warriors die. She probably experiences some form of survivors guilt when she sees another interceptor squadron almost die to the last Loroi, especially one from her homeworld.

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:
