>maximum focus on battles and fighting in small teams>fighting is about reducing each other's invisible HP pools>when characters get downed they can just get up and go back to fighting>every character is a collection of magic powers, whole combat and player expression is about taking turns using their list of cool movesfor how shitty DnD is at replicating fantasy adventures, is it secretly a perfect system to run Battle Shonen type stories? Are there any good Homebrews that do that? Have you ever tried it?
>>97172415Weapons of the Gods. Someone even wrote up most of everything from Saint Seiya's early arcs in it back in the day.
>>97176748Never heard of this in my life, mind giving some more info on it?
Honestly, FATE. Combat can get kind of samey (as in shounen) but basically you can do whatever the fuck you want, and if you can't, you take a few turns Creating Advantages so you can use those aspects to then win the fight in a big hit.
>>97172082Nah, though what's really funny is D&D has gone from a fantasy/adventure TTRPG to a hero TTRPG with a high fantasy setting. Though check out ugly goblin on youtube. He has made a JJK system for 5e.
>>97176892along those lines i'd recommend Feng Shui. had 'mooks' before D&D 4E, because you're blasting the fuck out of nameless henchmen left right and centre.meant to emulate those kind of action films, maybe wuxia. would work great for shounen.

I gotta say that with multiple attack rolls and some campaign elements, I’m actually really liking Alpha Strike. What’s the consensus here?
Just finished up a pick up game.Just a simple lance on lance 9k FedCom era match.My dudes ended up being Dracs, his were FedSuns.My Akum and Shogun C ripped apart his Rakshasa and Flashman and forced them to withdraw. Feels good to actually play.
>>97175726How picky are you for lore? What factions?Also snake is gonna be better mostly, the non ER Alexi is pretty darn good desu.i like quick draws in vidya but they just aren't good esp intro tech. They are very drac tho>>97176114Well said, I like the cat anyway but while mentioned later Caesar is just great if not a little splody. I have a weak spot for it because I like it's varients but also, the CCG art was great.>>97176843Mixed feelings, AS isn't bad but it's not as crunchy and can't campaign as well. Grogs hate it because BT ended in 3025.
>>97176843Felt a bit confused. It's simplified but in the fun parts that most players enjoy. I feel like it probably should've been even more abstracted or less abstract. I'd be fine with battletech epic where you field squads of mechs in huge conflicts, and I'd be fine with 30 minute skirmish battletech if it had lots of fun rules and flavor, but it's just sawn off battletech. Maybe more like circumcised battletech.Basically they should've gotten rid of gator. It's the main combat math that slows down new players, but instead it's still decently complex, just differently. You could've just done gunnery skill with at most two modifiers. Maybe even single d6.
>>97176843>What’s the consensus here?That regular Battletech is better for lance/star/Level II/demi-company games and Alpha Strike is acceptable if you want to play fast company or higher level games.

>>97176439oh yeah, wrong made up name>>97176426>destroyers are never getting a journal
>>97172787What's that OP pic from specifically? I love these kinds of images.
>>97176852probably from one of the imperial armor books, probably vol 2 if I had to guess
>>97176829destroyers might purely because they're an entire class of troopers, so they can do new things and new kits for sale, not merely a new paintjob on an old guyCassian dracos has zero reason to ever get a journal. If anything, what Salamanders needs are a non-zero amount of actual salamanders characters.They're missing every single non-primarch.Forgefather T'kell from the legions card game is the first salamander forgefather and Artellus Numeon the captain of the firedrakes and 1st company and equerry to Vulkan has no fucking right to be missing from the game.
>>97176615In the roadmap stream last year they said they wanted to start converting legion specific units to plastic but yeah if they want to keep the current rate of releases going long term we're going to see some wacky shit come 5th edition.Also in terms of models the scouring wouldn't actually add that much, just an mkvii tactical squad and an mkvii assault squad really. Maybe they could do a proto-CSM kit for the traitors.

>>97176047The real problems we face are the game caving in on itself due to the reprints. There's collector's pieces, like cold foil Legendaries, sitting in the thirties because of these reprint policies. Not playable non foils, the first editions of the past. The supposed reprint policy was set to preserve prices, but when LSS bent the rules to not include alternative artworks, they shot the long time collectors in their knee caps. Look at this shit. Capped out at 155 usd. Now you can get one for 35. It will cost you about four and a half coldies all the way past four and a half years since it was printed. They're failing everything this game has established with the latest wave of reprints. This is unprecidented levels of bad decisions.
>>97176591Now Tunic ultimately makes sense as a reprint. They have done it so many times I've lost count. So why reprint it again? Well now, given the context of the latest dev talk, it seems we know why. They don't know how to replace tunic, so they don't even try. They rather gut the market to pieces than create a side grade generic gearpiece.
>>97176603And now... Lookie here. They just can't help themselves. They reprinted a card on the anniversary of when it was originally printed. They waited a whole year. I'm sure collectors are thrilled about this most crucial 'spoiler' revealed to the fabulous community today.
>>97176628Am I the only one that thinks this looks terrible? Who wants this?
>>97170345What? Who are you talking to?

What cards do I need to pick up for Suicide Yellow?
>>97176721Be more specific. If you mean Jupitermon, he'll probably mostly use BT24-25 cards and probably the promo Aegiomon. Maybe the promo TS Patamon too. If you mean like Dynasmon or Kentarosmon, lol.
>>97176859I think it will probably have to run both BT14 Patamon and TS Patamon unless/until another Elecmon gets printed. The choices for yellow Elecmon are pretty bleak and TS Salamon is just okay
>>97176871Yeah they aren't a bad option, but you ALSO have the option of running TS Gomamon and Tapirmon. Both can add a Shaman and another TS card, and all of the Aegios and Jupitermon are all Shamans.
>>97176877in this case I'm assuming the yellow TS egg will not be as good as Nyaromon

The full doc is here (character limit) : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1a2jOdevMru4qTWOGlOBkTlHQIi3OqSP76OzcLeuGPJ0/edit?usp=sharingI'm working on a setting for a game, by which I mean I've been shitposting about it with my friend, but I've come up with enough ideas that I actually want to run it now. Help me brainstorm if you want. To be clear I'm not intending to make this a "tg setting", it's just for my own personal game, but feel free to steal any ideas you want for your own thing if you wish, you could even make your own thread. Nothing in the setting has to make sense. The only thing I care about it is that it's whimsical and / or provides the players with fun stuff to interact with. I want to focus on physical, player-facing features. History, deities (if any), religion, and the like are not important at this time. Because of the rule system I'm using, no magic system is required, that's already taken care of. Here's what I have so far.By the way, don't worry about your ideas being good or bad, and please be positive about other people's ideas. If I feel something doesn't fit, I just won't use it.Besides locations and creatures, please feel free to suggest events, adventures, and characters. All characters in the world are talking animals.General idea : basically sword and sorcery but it's like a children's book and takes place in a holiday / dessert / candy-themed world. Pretty much an episode of adventure time.All fauna and terrain is made of some kind of food. All water features (rivers, lakes, etc.) are filled with milk instead of water, and milk has the inherent magical property of being permanently self-chilling, and it is always clean and safe to drink.Important rule : All sapient animals are "normal" (except that they talk and wear clothes). All non-sapient animals are made of food.
Pretty much nothing smaller than a mouse exists, so no insects, parasites, or other such creepy jeebies, unless they can be made whimsical. Bumblebees specifically get an exception, and are actually flying jolly ranchers. Giant versions of insects can exist as monsters.When a monster is defeated, it vanishes in a puff of magic (colored appropriately for the monster's theme) and a burst of rainbow sprinkles, and leaves behind some gumdrops (the universal currency of the realm), and sometimes crafting materials.Our heroes begin their adventure in the quaint hamlet of Coldstone. It is under the protection of the Local Lady, Miss Wendy Wingspan the heron, the friendly, nervous, and somewhat absent-minded administrator who says "great goosefeathers!" a lot, and wears a sun dress and huge circular spectacles. She is rarely seen without her aide at her side, the good Mister Edgar Etchingcroft, the stern and dour yet compassionate bearded vulture with impressive eyebrows, an adorable vest, and a monocle.Some biome ideas, just the broad strokes for now :Forest : Candy canes grow to the size of redwood trees, and their seeds are peppermint candies. Moss is cotton candy. Birds are peeps. Toblerodents scurry underfoot. You may encounter White Chocolate Wendigos. Coldstone is located here.Mallowmarsh : This marsh is an exception to the usual rule, being filled with caramel instead of milk. Big piles of giant marshmallows float around on the surface. Here you can find the chocodile and the vanilligator. The mangrove trees have waffle bark and maple syrup sap.Cinnamon desert : The cacti are made of jello. Keep an eye on the sky, don't let the Ferrero Roc snatch you up. Watch your step too, those twizzler rattlesnakes don't take kindly to being stepped on. You may encounter giant peanut-brittle-shelled scorpions.
Brown sugar beach : Here you might find coconut-cream crabs and tortoises that have hollowed-out jawbreakers for shells. The fish are swedish fish.I may include crafting materials themed after each biome, I'm undecided on this right now.
>>97176558>>97176564Sword and sorcery candyland sounds like a fun enough concept.Rather than caramel for the marshes, why not something like whipped cream or yogurt? Or maybe flan? Still achieves the idea of having something thicker or more sticky to make up a swamp or bog, but maintains the sort of milk-based water cycle. Also, glaciers or frozen tundras made of ice cream are an obvious must for the same reason. Milk-based deserts are quite versatile enough that I don't think you'd need to compromise on milk = water. Ice cream tundra is the perfect excuse to have gummi-polar-bears. Maybe popsicle penguins on the other end of that.
Gummy Bears are horrific real life bears made of gummy/hard suger. They have resistances against piecing/blug from being gummy.
