Anon, that's something you could model in 3 minutes in something like tinkerCAD.
If you want something like stacking gridfinity on a larger scale, you may need to create it yourself. If you want to nest large models like in your image, you're going to have to create something custom.
The only stuff you're likely to find ready made is going to be fairly generic and not really all that efficient.

not sure if you haven't been paying attention to what's coming in GD03, but the overall power increases a fuckton to where gw wing isn't the most dominant deck in the game. it's even debatable that wing's even a tier 0 deck right now considering the de facto 2nd best deck in the game can speedrun a game against it if it highrolls.

It dawned on me while I was speaking to my wife that the stereotypical murderhobo adventurers of D&D are like fantasy warrior gig workers. With that in mind, what would it take for an enterprising wizard (or group thereof) to come up with the fantasy warrior equivalent of something like Fiverr? You have a murderhobo related task you need done, you relay it to the system/spell/network, "Goblins stole my things, willing to pay ___ for their return", the system searches for the nearest registered murderhobos with relevant skills and offers them the job in return for a cut?

>>97408896
You really believe that op is such a naive idiot that he really believes he is the first to have realized that a hobo is a traveling tradesman and so a murderhobo is a traveling tradesman whose trade is murder and tradesmen tend to form trade guilds? It's bait. Also the concept predates the Japanese take on western fantasy by more than a decade in the least.
>>
>>97408403
It would take a lot.
The issue is that access to such a system is contingent on access to either a magic user or a magic item. Both of these, as you might expect, are pretty expensive. Like yes, the computer network analogy is technically valid, but these are old school university computers on a university network; not everyone has access to such systems. If long distance communications are solved with essentially modern day forums and instant messaging, then the D&D-style medieval fantasy world you've kludged together around this concept probably no longer exists.
If you wanted something similar to this, you could have a commerce deity subcontract out mercenary work through his various temples. This would bypass most of the logistical issues, but 'a god did it' is little better than 'a wizard did it'.

The books are a bit different but the general style is close enough to the series (in the books Sharpe becomes an officer in India, while in the series he becomes one in Spain)

Setting dependent. In my setting they're basically religious fundamentalists, but are willing to join other civilizations if they see a benefit for themselves. In some settings they're unnatural or demonic, in some settings they're just native populations, and there are other answers.

Yes! In fact, depending on the version of 5e its quite good.

In 2014 5e, Ranged Weapons in general are the best weapons in the game due to the power of the Archery Fighting Style, the Sharpshooter Feat, and Extra Attack. Great damage, high range, ignoring cover (Which 99.9% of creatures cannot do), the range allows you to usually maneuver around the battlefield to take advantage of cover and hazards to trick up your opponents. Battle Masters in particular are really good for this style of play due to them having combat maneuvers like Precision Attack (Which you can use after rolling to boost your to hit roll), Menacing Attack (Long Range Frighten for movement shut down and disadvantage on their attacks), Trip Attack (To trip foes), Pushing Attack (Push foes into hazards or away from allies or off cliffs), and other nice options to go with it!

2024 5e is a little different due to Sharpshooter not giving the big damage bonus it had in 2014, but it's still solid due to Longbows having the Heavy Property allowing you to get the Great Weapon Master feat- it just requires a wider stat spread than it used to. Hypothetically, you could get Sharpshooter, Great Weapon Master, and still max out your Dexterity all by level 8 as a Fighter, which means you'll still be doing solid enough damage without the loss to accuracy that 2014 Longbow users were dealing with. Battle Masters are more or less the same, though at higher levels they get a great buff with Relentless and can be even more mobile than they were before.

Any ideas for how to incorporate Thieves Cant into games? I'm running Mines and I had the idea of the proprietor of The Sleeping Giant be a former member of the Neverwinter Thieves Guild who got her bag and retired. The signage would indicate to those in the know (such as members of the Redbrands or my Rogue) that the place is safe for unsavoury types. I'd also have symbols akin to Depression-era hobo slang near Tressendar Manor that indicate that business is to be conducted in the cellar and that the upstairs is unsafe to navigate.

If I'm understanding your question and setting correctly:
>Aliens are real
>So are wizards
>Magic is as powerful as technology if not more
Seems perfectly fine
>Magic can only recreate real phenomenon by drawing energy from other dimensions and channelling it according to the wizard's will.
Wizard magic, no problem these are your rules
>Wizards create a spell that will create an ionised plasma shield
This were I raise an eyebrow, but only because you asked about it "working". I'll also preface I'm no expert in any of this

>Ionization is (very bare bones) the removal or addition of electrons from a molecule or atom.
Perfectly fine so far, no reason for a wizard to not be able to do this.
>Plasma, again VERY broad strokes, is fucking with the electrons to make something conductive and super fucking hot.
Again, wizards nbd.

>first stage of eugenics should be weeding out all eugenicists
While I appreciate the sentiment, there are practical applications of eugenics, such as Iceland's app to avoid cousin fucking or cascade testing and genetic counseling (both things recommended by the CDC and not just under this administration) to avoid children being born with heritable diseases.

That said, that sort of shit is generally not what anyone calling themselves a "eugenicist" means.
