>>97275315Tried cc, it's down too. What's the extension for ST and Onion?

>>97273703Actually it is capitalism. Clever Capitalism, I am sure my jumper can get some government backing for the endeavor, It garners good will, people actually think my Jumper is a good person for it and as I mentioned since my jumper isn't getting any money for it, it is a loss which my Jumper can write off on their Taxes, though admittedly a wealthy Jumper probably doesn't need to pay Taxes but my Jumper would find it amusing with as much money as they are making. Beyond that the free child care helps my Jumper retain talented employees who might otherwise be forced from the work force. It's not socialism, it's an investment.

>>97270499I used to run open games in a sort of gaming bar. Bands played in the back some nights, they had trivia and movie nights too, but the selling point were the board games and ttrpgs. On open table days they were full and having people trapped there for up to 5 hours doping mental work emptied the bar. I saw them having to get more stuff than expected and still running out. Great night for them.Now I'm in another city and there's a similar type of shop, but they charge to use their space and have few things to consume (cheap coffee machine, small fridge with non-alcoholic stuff). They also open for just 4 hours. It's empty most of the time. I joined their wassapp group and it was pretty toxic, regular GMs not offering any help and spamming dumb stuff when other people were trying to form a group. So it might be that they are being fucked over by the first people who got there. But I do believe secondary monetization works better than charging initially.

>1eIs there an archetype that'll let me play a merchant that just relies on hirilings for combat?
>>97271573Not really, though I guess you could try something like Cleric/Paladin/Inquisitor of Abadar, or perhaps some sort of Bard.
In my current campaign the party found a fun combo of Thaumaturge and Alchemist. Thaumaturge finding enemies weakness and Alchemist throwing bombs to constantly trigger those weaknesses along side the Thaumaturge. Any other fun party combos people have found?
>2eMaking a custom ancestry for fun. What are some common pitfalls I should avoid to not make it shit?
>>97271573Nothing explicitly build for this outside of the Leadership feat, which gets you a Cohort 2 levels lower than you as well as a bunch of low-level lackeys, which you could easily use to help run a business and/or fight your battles for you. From there, if you want them to be doing the majority of the fighting, I'd say be some flavor of Bard to help boost their numbers (maybe have the majority of the hirelings use Guns/be gunslingers so they'll target Touch AC since that barely scales at higher levels?) and that will probably last up until you run into an enemy that hits your entire party with a high DC saving throw.

>>97274207Consumer spending decrease continues. Dominant game companies (WotC, GW) get a bit desperate, continue to squeeze in retarded ways as various executive suites bail. Mid range companies get fucked hard, continue selling and going under. Boutique games hit peak saturation and fall off for a while. RPGs and wargames shift into increasing complexity again. Xrd edition reprints of whatever made money last time churn for a bit more. Kickstarter becomes less viable. Youtubers viability falls off, gets more intense for competition, generative slop takes a lot of them out. Crib or backgamon gets big again on tiktok.

I would like to talk about the Chronicles of Darkness game line Deviant: The Renegades, or more specifically, one major upcoming supplement. Deviant was released in late 2021, and has had three additional sourcebooks since then. A new supplement, Black Vans, has been in playtesting for a while, and is currently being previewed.I am not being paid or sponsored to promote this book in any way. I am just very fascinated by it, and indeed, I already ran a mini-campaign using the playtest material.Deviant is, by default, a game about playing angsty, scarred superheroes who either fight world-manipulating conspiracies or work for them. Black Vans is a toolkit full of variant rules, quick NPC creation, variant character types, and variant genres. These variants range from the minor to the dramatic, completely overhauling what were once non-negotiable, foundational themes and mechanics. Maybe your character is not angsty or scarred at all, perhaps they are a """""regular human""""" like John Wick or Batman, or the campaign might have nothing to do with world-manipulating conspiracies.These variant genres include cyberpunk, high fantasy, post-apocalypse, space opera, and superhero emergence.This is a beefy supplement. For example, one chapter alone dedicates 38,000+ words to playing other monsters of the Chronicles of Darkness: Beasts, changelings, demons, Sin-Eaters, hunters (entirely separate from the variant rules for """natural""" superpowers), mages, mummies, Prometheans, vampires, and werewolves. No additional supplements beyond Deviant are necessary; the rules are self-contained, allowing the group to play a monster mash of an urban fantasy setting without needing a daunting 7+ books. And yes, they are supposed to be balanced against one another, so a vampire in the same group as a full-fledged mage is probably some older Kindred.(Continued.)
It's basically just Guyver the RPG, right?
>>97275171Or Kamen Rider, or Akira
>>97275171>>97275276That is merely one of many, many ways to spin Deviants and conspiracies. Even without bringing in Black Vans, the game and its setting are pretty darned flexible in flavoring, as explained here >>97217944, here >>97217956, here >>97217964, and here >>97217974.A Deviant and their conspiracy could be John Wick and the assassin underworld, Baki and a grotesque fighting circuit, a magical girl and a wider network of fuzzy mascot creatures, a [vampire/werewolf/mage/changeling/etc.] gone wrong and their supernatural society, and so on.
Snagged a copy for super cheap on eBay, hoping I can get my group to try this out next year. I've always wanted to run something CoD/WoD, this seems a little more... approachable than Vampire.
>>97275333As I mentioned to someone else earlier, you have a lot of material to work with. Are you interested in running a vanilla Renegades game, the assumed default? A vanilla Devoted game? One of the Black Vans variant genres? Something else entirely?What starting Standing/Threat Level were you considering?

So many shitty posts. >This world's Byzantium is more akin to an alternate surviving western empire. As the first imperium burned to a crisp as the Muslims set the classical world ablaze, the third legion locked down the heartlands of the imperium, even naming a member of the Brutii family as a valid successor to the Imperium. Now they're the last holdout of the old empire of Sarcosa. On paper, the Emperor reigns supreme but in truth the Legates of the Imperial Guard call all the shots. >They're notoriously hard for the other lords to deal with due to Sarcosa holding archaic territorial claims, including the northern coast. During the first Crusade, the Emperor tried to make the Crusaders sign the imperial censure which would make the newly conquered territories de-facto territories of Sarcosa. The military governors also rule as nobles in all but name with their positions passed down through hereditary driven nepotism. Couple that with owning villas and you have lay nobility that puts on airs.

Everyone I know who watches Fatt Coville videos is a fucking terrible GM. I've never fully watched one and I am widely considered the best GM out of all 3 groups I'm part of. I am regularly requested to run campaigns. People borderline fall asleep in the games others run. There's also no tension because they know that these Coville acolytes will fudge rolls until all PCs survive the battle. If you're a good GM, it's an inmate talent you can hone over time. You're born that way. If you aren't, then no amount of shitty advice is going to make up for your lack of talent. It just is what it is. This idea that everyone should "try" DMing is retarded. The idea that anyone can be good at it? lolno. Its like some fat divorced on who suddenly decides he's gonna become a famous author. Fat chance. Most people fucking suck at GMing. Hell, most of them suck at playing, but at least in that case the game depends less on them.
>>97270251I don't even think rules light systems are always necessary; nine times out of ten, the people complaining about being unable to get their groups to try a new thing are doing a dogshit job of pitching the game. I will say it again: don't expect the players to buy in to learning a new game based on you telling them how cool it is; run a one shot with pre generated characters that introduces the basic rules and showcases how fun the game is.
>>97270251If you have to ease your group into playing other systems, there's already a problem. Alongside that, if you are fucking sick of generic D&D fantasy bullshit, playing more generic D&D fantasy bullshit isn't a solution to that grievance.
>>97232331I think session zeros should be a thing, formal or informal. Either way GM/DM advice is useless because every GM, theor skills, style, and what they want is different. Some GMs probably benefit from having 20 pages of notes for a session and planning for every possibility, my notes are a few stat blocks for likely enemies and some possible loot with me winging the rest. Some GMs might like reading 5 page backstories, I for one just want to know family, friends, origin, and goals of PCs. Some GMs like games built around the story where it's 90% roleplayong 10% mechanics, I for one love mechanics and combat.
>>97271637>Either way GM/DM advice is useless because every GM, theor skills, style, and what they want is different.There is still advice that is universal regardless of what your style is.
>>97235163These are very close to Alexander Macris's example scenarios where fudging is "justifiable", however he is a simulationist (which is rare), while most narrativists state that you should actively fudge the dice for the purpose of "telling a good story" or preventing lethality.Example of a narrativist defending fudging for purposes other than patching mistakes/illogical gameplay results: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vguHd5IHFAgI agree with >>97235185 that in the first scenario it is better to have enemies behave logically than like video game enemies (making enemies surrender/flee is actually good for grimdark), and that roll tables for encounters are mostly suggestions/idea seeds/map-making tools rather than an exact description of how the world is structured, and that if you have a premade setting you should probably also have custom encounter tables for it rather than using the ones in the base rules.

Previous thread: >>97111514GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: How often do you use an official GURPS setting? Which are your favorites?
>Bug Mode: You optimize your brain for fast reaction at the cost of logical reasoning.>Extra Basic Speed (Temporary Disadvantage, IQ -4, -80%)Yea or nay?
>>97273925Seems like a fairly extreme IQ penalty, but the basic principle is sound. By a strict reading of the Temporary Disadvantage rules, you can't actually take attribute penalties, only disadvantage traits, but I'm fairly sure even official material has done it before.An alternative would be Backlash, which explicitly allows attribute penalties, among other effects, but seems more designed for 'instant' advantages and persists even if you switch it off.In terms of realism, there are absolutely mechanisms by which the brain trades off speed for accuracy, completeness, etc. under different circumstances. The classic is that adrenaline reduces your reaction time but makes it significantly harder to engage in careful reasoning or even things like fine motor control. These could certainly be pushed to the point that -4 IQ would be justified, but I don't know how much more basic speed you could reasonably hope to get, because a normal human brain is probably already doing almost all it can to maximise quick reactions in most circumstances where basic speed would matter.Also, remember that IQ drags your Per and Will with it and Basic Speed includes Move. Separating them out could be challenging.
How durable the Standard Demon from Magic/DF9 actually is in play? DR 5, HP 25, Fragile (Unnatural) and Dodge/Parry 9.Asking because the Demonologist from DF9 acquires it through Ally (Summonable), not Conjured, and the Fragile (Unnatural) seems to make it quite prone to death.

>>97273491Fire is good, it was mankind's first tool, hellfire on the other hand is bad, that shit uses your soul as kindling.>>97274804Our brothers can. Though you need to be initiated & you gotta be trustworthy enough to know it's mysteries before you pray to Uriel.
>>97274804Control's a choice word if you wanna get down to it. Can anyone control a fire? Despite what the fireman might say, they're not controlling it.

>>97275106It's a fine line, I will admit. It's something I try not to use often but sometimes needs must and all that. Also like how else are you gonna kill a nemean? We couldn't strangle it and drowning takes too long.>>97275188It tends to be personal, when trying to learn, because the way it clicks tends to be different for each person. At least when it comes to using it seriously. If it's just accidental, it's like any sort of elemental magic with more malicious intent. You want whatever is troubling you gone. Permanently. It shouldn't come back and fire tends to be the most solid connections between the realms. Considering the emotions one might feel as well; it tends to, unsurprisingly, spring up when someone's doing fire magic. Once you've survived an accidental appearance, it becomes more a matter of recalling the feelings to get a better hold on the connection the caller made. Cross isn't exactly...wrong saying I sound like a thrall but actual research about hellfire is so hard to find. Demons don't give a shit beyond its destruction and warlock are so whiny about how I shouldn't cut them open.
