>>96765978It's been a while since I've stumbled upon this... piece. Do you know if the author has any social media?
>>96765463>osr>not the prime example of "if you don't write it down it does not exist"
>>96766019No idea, but try asking in the drawthread here on /tg/ somebody should know.
I recently read through the 2e rules and classes after years of being away from RPGs (largely due to disgust with wotc/5e and that being the only option in my area). I had really high hopes because of what I had remembered reading about some classes like Investigator and their Devise A Strategy, or the Swashbuckler and its Panache/Bravado. I also liked the idea of the 3-action turns. But honestly, I really dislike most of what I've read directly and over the last several threads here.- Most classes have few class features, frontloaded in the first level or three and then basic stat boosts from then on.- MOST features/actions/spells boil down to conditional +1 or -1 buffs/debuffs. I know it's supposed to still be functional due to degrees of success but it still looks like most of them would usually be ineffectual and dull, so why bother casting or using those abilities if you could just hit someone for real damage instead?- MOST classes sound like they fail to deliver their class fantasy overall, whether due to being incompetent at their intended role or being a baffling mishmash of hyper-specific features that aren't coherent or thematic. Thaumaturge is a kinda neat idea but I just can't understand what it's supposed to be thematically other than its mechanics. I thought Exemplar would be like Hercules or the 4e Invoker, but they're all fixated on using artifacts they somehow make but only use up to one of at a time. It's lame. Oracle feels like a pale shadow of its 1e version I remember. Guardian is very coherent but seems utterly shoehorned into "guy with heavy armor who does nothing out of combat."- In the end, the only classes that actually seemed like they'd be interesting to me are Alchemist due to its freebie items throughout the day (but which I don't trust to function well now), Commander, Investigator (to some degree and only if the metanarrative stuff doesn't break the campaign/DM), Kineticist, and Swashbuckler.Am I right? Is it really this bad?
>>96766786>Is it really this bad?That's your opinion, man.What is your game history?
>Player whines about not having a major role in the story>He's playing a generic human fighterHow do you deal with players like this? I let already let him get drunk and pick fights when he visits taverns, what more do martial players want?

>>96766311This is where LAMs shine. No, really. Otherwise you can slp a Leopard or Invader in if you're careful.
>>96765894It's odd, not matter how many times I read this online it never is reflected on my table. Clan mechs are so expensive the matches are usually close, comes down to lots of firepower vs numbers advantage and lots of armor.
>>96765541Spiders. You can bring 4-5 spiders to fight a mad cat, move through its entire weapons range in two turns, and then start kicking until it falls over.

Haven't played in a while, did they finally make Aquilons ok or are they still a dead team beyond turn 2?
>>96766490You can take all models from the box now and don't need to pick 2 of 3 of the gunners
Has the Blooded team disappeared for good from the GW store? Or are they reboxing them (again)?
>>96766739They'll, probably be reboxed as traitor guard for 40k without the ogryn
>>96766149Yikes, shame about this team, especially with how happy I was with the paintjob. I don't care about power level beyond a certain extent, but every balance update has just neutered the fun parts of the team more and more. Now it'll feel like the dollarstore version of the team, with a priest that dropped out of primary school holding a lame sermon and using his ability, "shimmy some parts of the procession". I'll need to forget how it has felt to play them so far before I can enjoy them again, which will take a long time.Meanwhile canoptek got a little slap on the wrist and technically a buff to their biggest gun?>>96766347The bottom of the barrel has been raised, ever so slightly.
Anyone remember the WoW rpg?did you enjoy playing it?
>>96751212Which is both funny and sad because literally the same company did an Everquest adaptation a few years before that and actually made a real effort to make it feel like the source material instead of just putting 3E in a dollar store halloween costume.
I love how you have literal WoW ttrpg here and you will still have retards like >>96751673 calling 4e "tabletop wow" because they can't admit that 3e was the biggest jump in turning d&d into a videogame of any edition, but they grew up with it so they cant besmirch its good name
>>96764302I'm pretty sure they said that because of all of the people who likened 4.0 to being like an MMO. I know people were doing that online at the time, and I remember people saying it at my LGS.
>>96764372Yeah, and 3.0 was rightfully shat on for being tabletop diablo but the retards that grew up with it were quick to bury that, weren't they
>>96763934>Also, Night Elves associate with the Tauren when it comes to druidic matters.Ironic, since tauren druidic matters are a result of the mmo mechanics. They had to give druids to a Horde race to even it out.

Trench Crusade General - /trench/Let's Make A Warband Generator Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. 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, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.>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, but are split between the website and the discord.

isnt the entire appeal of trench crusade to kitbash your gw minis for this game?
>>96766693Not the entire appeal of the game, but kitbashing (using any minis, not just gw ones) is a big part of it and actively encouraged by the devs.
>>96766693>isnt the entire appeal of trench crusade to kitbash your minis for this game?Not all, but it's a lot. It means that most armies will not resemble each other, and it's kinda a treat to see.

Should Space Marines be made more common? These mythical warriors of only 1 million or so total spread thin throughout the Imperium does NOT match up with what we actually see, which is the Astartes showing up in large numbers to even minor conflicts and dying in large numbers as well.
>>96765589>let me point to this badly written literature No
>>96746799The route I would take is reduce their lore capabilities to get closer to the tabletop feeling, and increase chapter numbers to allow more narrative room for losses. A supersoldier rather than a demigod, and 10,000+ a chapter so 10-50 deaths isn't a remarkable loss.
>>96752015Even though the Marines' ground performance gets propagandized to hell, their real strength is the fact they are a combined arms space force which is somewhat of a rarity in the IOM: that chapter of 50 supersoldiers has access to multiple battle barges comparable to a battleship in ability plus supporting craft.They're mascots to their space navies, which are the actual muscle in their offensive ability.
>>96759691>but there's only about 1 space marine for every planet the Imperium hasand that is more than enough.
>>96757536According to one of the old necron codices, there are millions of tomb worlds. Multiple times as many tomb worlds as there are worlds claimed by the Imperium. Every other faction out there is a complete and utter joke next to necrons.

>>96766434It's just Takaishi being a coward and getting helped by the Prez. Mainly to set the starting point for his character progression into someone at least moderately brave.

Thread titleHow the fuck can you argue for thirty minutes over how to OPEN A DOOR
>>96765904what do you mean forward? there's no direction I want the players to go.
>>96764776Your players are engaging in cost benefit analysis of their actions and you're scorning them for it?
>>96764842>>96764850>>96765200OP gang-raped on arrival
>>96766412I imagine it's having the players actually pick a direction to begin with. Obviously you don't want to interfere with the players' decision making process, but there does come a point where caution and preparation becomes indecision and fear of commitment, and a proper GM knows when to signal the players they need to do something if they aren't actively trying to suss out more information to make a better decision.
>>96766072Why would you add dangerous passages leading... nowhere?

Only one player essentially gets to play the game. >Blue has too much utility. Resting, bouncing, ping, card draw, repair.>Blue and White have the best commands in the game to control the board and have a bigger impact than the red and green commands.>Kira and Amuro give a huge advantage in combat when persistent damage is supposed to be a thing. >High Maneuver is too exclusive.>There is so much Ping that it makes anything with 1 HP worthless and makes go wide tokens horrible.>Green Tutors are restrictive and can whiff, which makes them worse than card draw.>Support should be able to be used during the action phase and not be exclusive to main.Comment too long.

Even if there is some kind of tech involving bouncing a card and then discarding it for a cost there are cards like Tiril Dawnrider, Karina of Silvermoon, Knife Throw, and Corki's Ransom which all actually can do things faster.
Welcome to the 4Chan /g/ usenet group Thread! Now appearing on /tg/. >What is /usenet/?Open protocols still exist and are what the internet was built on (http, irc, rss, ftp, etc).

>>96749370>Have Drow faction in my DnD homebrew>Want them somewhat familiar to new players yet being differentIs this even possible? My setting is an Age of Sail world where all the elemental and other planes of existence are forced into the Material Plane and the Drow ended up in a caldera out at sea where they hastily had their spiders shit out a ton of webbing to create a canopy of webs that block out the sun. Lolth has gone silent and they aren't sure what to do now.
>>96766545The Lolth-autism is already an unfortunate big part of the D&D-like drow idea. Makes these drow about finding their own meaning and place in this world without this goddess, including internal strife and warring factions with different viewpoints. Some may want to uphold the matriarchy, while others realize that the women are far less powerful without the bitch backing them up. Some may even be not outright evil and more willing to cooperate with other races.
>>96766569I think diplomacy and trade are going to be interesting; previously they could raid the material plane nations and scamper back to the Underdark knowing they were safe; now they are only a mere boat ride distance from their wary neighbors.
>>96766545Naturally, they should make magical submarines. Trade underground for underwater, and keep raiding the surface.Maybe instead of Lolth they discover a kraken or whatever, priesthood claim that's Lolth avatar, and they worship that, pretending Lolth is still behind them.
