Creative use of first strike. Like, I have no attachment to TMNT beyond "I kinda like a couple of the games and Last Ronin seems cool" so I'm just judging by flavour and mechanics best I can. I don't really get the flavour of the ability without knowing the source for this specific version of Shredder, so.

This is such a non-issue if you're an adult.
Put some black cardstock over the top and remove them as you enter a new room. Put the cardstock everywhere even if there's nothing underneath. Don't fill the entire table with shit for no reason. And to be extra safe, you go
Hey, i know i can't stop you from seeing the existence of the cardstock, and the dungeon obviously can't go off the table we're using, but just play along, okay? I tried really hard on this.

Even if you wanted to use D&D for this for some reason, you could pretty safely just remove heavy armor, and then make it so any class with proficiency in heavy armor can use Strength in place of Dex when calculating AC for medium armor along with getting the Defense fighting style for free.

Nothing else about the game really changes as a result. Certainly nothing that meaningfully changes the balance of the game anyway.

I didn’t find this myself. I didn’t have a magic weapon until well into level 5.

>>97367640
Not in fantasy, but I did have first contact between two of my sci-fi species be weird because the first thing they did to try and communicate (no universal translators in setting) was send prime numbers to each other.

Except for one species, the first eight prime numbers are:

>1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17
While for the other the first eight are:
>2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19

That's right, one of them considers "1" prime and the other doesn't. Basically the former just don't mind the fact that all of the theorems involving prime numbers have to say "except for 1". The latter think that they're *lunatics*.

So far neither has made contact with any other species so they don't know whether it's common for 1 to be considered prime or not.

>>97367969
You are in no place to give that advice.

>>97372817
yes, but the truly primitive (e.g. piraha) have no concept of time, nor do they care.
as for civilizations, accurate timekeeping has been a relatively recent development. also, most people would probably not have cared much until the industrial revolution and the creation of shift labor.
basically, a a peasant needs to know what day it is, a factory worker needs to know the hour (so that he can start his shift on time), and I need to know what minute it is in order to make it to my next zoom meeting on time.

>In my games setting magic and the technology that would allow for automation can't co-exist, as the chaotic reality manipulating nature of magic would interfere and break stuff purely running on the laws of physics. (not the most original idea, but at least it explains why things have been in medieval stasis for so long)

Fine, I'll bite. How? Since technology is just exploiting natural chemical and motion based principles already baked in to nature. If "thing pushes other thing" suddenly broke down, your entire body would suddenly fall apart in to it's base components.

The real answer is the tainted work of the hand of man thanks to man being sinful. Magic is closer in purity to the uncorrupt world prior to the fall. Also what makes it so dangerous. Much in the same way that anyone who looks upon the Lord would die instantly. Or how touching the Ark of the Covenant would kill someone instantly. Harnessing magic takes extra measures.

This one: >>97373160

The Imperium could absolutely take Pop Star up until the point Kirby notices and eliminates them. Kirby is EXTREMELY powerful, but he isn't omnipotent (he's actually kind of stupid) and he's quite lazy. Kirby's desire to "solve a problem" is directly proportionate to how much it's personally inconveniencing himself, his lifestyle, or his immediate friends. Once Kirby "locks on" to a problem though, he's like a pit bull: he won't let go until he's completely resolved the situation, as he understands it.

>>97369816
>>97370105
>>97372575

What people don't really understand about Kirby is that his power over Empathy means he has to match power escalation. Kirby, canonically, possess an infinite source of power, but it's entirely reactionary: King Dedede stealing all the food in Dreamland (the province, not the planet/country), and then challenging to a boxing match, is just as much of a "threat" to Kirby as that Gene-Stealing Super Organism in the recent game wot tried to kill Kirby by dropping a planet on the planet he was occupying. These are equally difficult situations for Kirby.

You'll be fine. You got the basics and can work as a good on-the-spot and downtime healer. The stat array is a bit weird but you got +4 on WIS and Heavy Armor will cover the middling DEX/Reflex so I'm not going to judge.

>What are some things DCGO gets wrong? I was interested in trying it,

I believe a major one is how it processes attacking procedures.

something like EoT DNA into CS Omni can attack twice with Matt and Tai when it should only be once.

and "This digimon may attack" effects dont work quite right either. Specifically, they're not tapping to swing right away when it matters for some decks

>>97373134
yeah they don't process individual effects as an actual whole individual effect and others effects can interrupt it.
this is especially egregious with the "this digimon may attack effects" as you mentioned.
most of the time this is the problem, a lot of people play this wrong in person as well and sometimes make mistakes about it, but its usually pretty minor, dcgo does it in a lot of really bad ways.

for example if you jogress into aegisdramon with plesiomon effect, you would attack before aegisdramonas when digivolving would even activate, since you are still resolving the plesio effect.
but DCGO makes you do the when digivolving and all other effects from the evo and what it plays out on play before resolving the attack from the plesio effect.
so aegisdramon on dcgo just doesn't get to unsuspend it self from its on evo playing out a seadra and you miss out on like 1/3 of your attacks from the jogress.
chaosdramon has the same issue but its less relevant for the deck because the timing it resolves them doesn't really matter

the omnimon + matt & tai issue I think got fixed but it was a brute force solution that didn't actually fix why it was happening.
they have some problems with vortex eot ordering as well

>>97373207
>yeah they don't process individual effects as an actual whole individual effect and others effects can interrupt it.
To be fair that's because there ARE interruptive effects in digimon and those fuckups are basically concessions to the fact that they had to code for interruptives (protection mostly)

>>97373235
yeah but interruptive effects are uncommon enough that you can just specifically flag them and don't let other effects activate.
this is only a problem if you didn't think through what you were making and these were band-aids to late additions to the game you needed to design around to make work, which isn't the case at all. you know interruptive effects exist, you should design you sim around them, no other card game simulators have this issue despite having more complex state based activation.

this isn't an "oops an off by 1 error snuck through" its a failure at the fundamental design level

Looks like the afternoon reveals are being used for box toppers

Sci fi setting giving all the missiles bug names. Right now I'm torn on one, a smaller defense missile meant to intercept and destroy larger ones, between calling it the Fire Ant or making a Big O reference by calling it the Louse and giving it the military jargon code DOR-03.
What name sounds better?

Since my cosmology is fundamentally gender essentialist, women can't really *use* magic, but they're the only ones who can pass it on. The only way to be a Mage is for your mother to be a Mage as well, even if she doesn't have any control over it.

However, they can still use wand magic because it's technically the wand doing the magic, a common loophole that allows governments to use 100% of their magical population.

.....but I don't like this explanation. Magic in my setting works on the principle of the Soul commanding the Body "inside" the Mage, and therefore the Mind commanding Matter outside it. It makes no sense for a wand, a material substance, to do Magic by itself.

>>97345235
I wasn't aware phosphorus could be found on asteroids. This changes the dynamics of things like you say when people mostly focus on precious/rare metals as the target of asteroid mining.

To that end, say there is a reliable way to ship these products back to Earth (whatever isn't getting sold and used by the spacenoids first). What effect would this have since you mentioned the bottlenecking?
