Does anyone have experience on running two systems simultaneously? I want to inject dungeon crawls with investigative mysteries and the prospect of characters going insane. I figured CoC and D&D would be a good place to start, because I want to move toward a bigger idea I had but need practice.

I want to shoot lightning from a long spear. Is Magus the class to go if I want to actually hit enemies with both spear and zzap?
>>97829866>ImmunitiesYou have Extract Element>High ACYou have Impulses>Passable SavesYou have Blasts>Skill ChecksYeah but this applies to pretty much any caster or light armor class in the gameYou know you supposed to use ALL your available options as a Kineticist. And if something has all of that at once, the problem is the monster, not you.>>97829996Magus is a bit more literal in terms of "hitting enemies with a spear and zzap". But yes, you go to that.

>>97829712I do know someone who played a warlock in d&d 4e and wants to play one in pathfinder 2e. I don't think your post about people liking warlock applies to him.
>>97830736Obviously this talks about the 5e version, my 4e knowledge is unfortunately quite limited. But I wouldn't think there are that many people like your friend, who have memories mainly about the previous variants and think it was 2e needs or should have. There's so many 5eWarlock fans because the fantasy of "Unholy Powers At A Dirt Cheap Price" meshes well with the absolute glutted hog that is the Warlock chassis.As shown, if it was just the fantasy or specific mechanics people like, they have options. But none hits *everything at once* like 5e Warlock does.

>>97830641Nah
>>97830648Not having the option to make your own leader character/commander is lame. There ought to be generic leader/hero character options.
>>97830671>There ought to be generic leader/hero character options.I'd buy it, but it ain't a must have desu
>>97830641It's great imo, leave generic customizable leaders for future Warcraft Tabletop
>>97830306Oh fuck, the very idea of that is utterly repulsive.

>>97820441Because you assumed there was something wrong with the Dark Angels who are an utterly loyal and stalwart legion who would never do anything to betray the imperium in any way and anyone who says otherwise is most like with the fa- I mean a heretic.

Is 40k a narrative or setting
>>97829407you missed your general
Whichever one of you annoying faggots keeps spamming unrelated 40k threads on other boards, kill yourself.>>>/co/153072073
>>97829407Setting is the only thing that makes sense for GW to do. They can't really do a narrative, because a narrative might require killing off characters every so often, and that would mean people won't buy the model of that character if they get discontinued or the rules become unavailable in future editions. There's plenty of room for narratives within 40k, but it shouldn't itself be a larger narrative. If there has to be a larger narrative, the best way to do so is to frame everything as conflicting rumors and reports in order to maintain some of the mystery.
It's a setting that GW sets stories in, just like EVERY OTHER SETTING IN EXISTENCE
The galaxy is a setting that we read a buch of stories in. The setting itself is an excuse to tell stories, like the kill team planet that has the big gun, or a plot-relevant space hulk. you could say in the past people only knew the setting i.e they had no idea why books for fenris would be released, but now more people than ever are focused on the ongoing larger picture narrative
What campaigns have you made and how long did it take to flesh it out?
>>97822308I usually just start with a single dumb idea and then expand on it. Like for my current game, I wanted to do a fairy tale storybook adventure. So right away, I decided all the sentient beings are talking cartoon animal people. Then I was like, what if all terrain, plants, and animals were made of candy / desserts? The rest of it pretty much wrote itself from there
>>97822264No time. Prep is noob trap.
Been playing one shots lately, because of schedules conflicting and because I like trying new systems out to find the good ones to base a campaign around.I tried several methods.An Only War campaign that was mainly a series of combat encounters linked by a war movie plot that was just the ongoing conflict. One small starting operation against insurgents and then a longer conflict with Orks, that got sidelined after we couldn't manage to get together to play anymore. It's always there ready to continue if we want. Prep wasn't that deep, after I put together a few operation maps to give context during mission briefings. I probably spent more time cropping enemy stat profiles in a nice little sheet I could print out than getting sessions together.L5R was the next big thing. I put together the basic premise, named a bunch of NPCs and gave them personality, ambitions and all that stuff, most of them aren't even statted beyond "generic+1" . I put together a small conspiracy plot in case the PCs needed a nudge, but they soon went in another direction and I rolled with that. Prep work gave me all I needed, I just had to come up with the details. I had another subplot ready just in case, and it's turning out to be the main plot in the current second campaign arc that we just started.Between L5R arcs I GMd a cyberpunk 2020 campaign. It was supposed to be a sort of open table limited to our group but it soon became a regular campaign after a few players became unavailable. City map was done with google maps, a few factions with objectives and again a bunch of NPCs. We did keep the option to have the players change PCs between sessions, turned out pretty useful in some cases, like when the party had to interact with a zeppelin hijack from three different locations.Next thing I'm going to prep is Exalted, still have to think how to tackle that because I want to study the system first and boy, is there a lot to read. Then maybe a classic fantasy using GURPS.

I win the argument.
>>97829284He's right though, the image isn't even ai, which puts you in a bad position.
>>97830512Apparently the image was used in a video I didn't fully watch that was using that canned AI conversational text to speech thing that makes NPR commentators sound natural.But that's hardly obvious from the post. And yeah, the image looks generic not farmed awkwardly from generic images.It doesn't look AI generated. It looks like a slideshow presentation.
>>97830512It literally is AI. It is instantly recognizable as such. The art style is characteristic of AI.
>>97830555>It is instantly recognizable as such.In what way?>The art style is characteristic of AI.AI mimicks art styles. It doesn't create art style.There are design traits common to certain AI, like figures needlessly looking at the camera, overly attractive people, or framing things in parallel. And mistakes.Show me a clear AI pic and I can explain why I think it's AI. Usually overuse of a trending style is common in AI but it's not a smoking gun.To knee jerk react and scream about AI slop, you kinda need more evidence than just "but it is!"

So who are your favorite waifus in DnD?
>>97820804Many systems have developed enough meta narratives to have a bunch of established characters, I can imagine more than a few of the female ones get simps of some kind.

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.

>>97825343>Eliminate all ambiguities.There are none, save those trying to force them in with overwrought philosophical naval gazing.Nothing in the lore suggests anything resembling ambiguity; what you actually have is the hidden truth that the Faithful are all, in their own ways, contradicting Scripture, but it is presented as tragic necessity, not moral ambiguity.
>>97827487>>97824034>>97825127>examples of the actual problem that won't go awayUnironic that the people who are loudest about pushing their politics on to the game are not the 'crazy lefties' (unless all bad philosophy is leftist).

Even the Starcraft game, which is fucking unreleased, is outdoing us in thread activity. Tf happened to TC? It's died quicker than any game I've seen before.
Now that the dust has settled, is it the D&D killer it was hyped up to be?
