>>97815397>Combat goes as expected and predicted>Faggot is somehow surprisedSo how new to this shit are you, exactly? What sort of fucked up expectations you had when pitting less than thrice the party members numbers for your "big badass bossfight" shit-tier combat encounter?
>>97818571>in exchange for his freedom he tells her that he's part of a secret organization that's only trying to save humanity from the erlen>by this point Harald has followed after caught up to them, due to his class feature of favored terrain he can climb past obstacles blocking his way>he recalls information on this creature; the arachnid queen is a eusocial creature that commands her spawn and has human-level intelligence, she has a slow metabolism and doesn't need to feed for long periods of time, saving prey in webbing, but also moves very slowly>they discover the other exit door has been webbed up by spider spawn, as the queen slowly unfolds out of the door>she had left the room in order to block off all escape>there is a door further into the maze, where the "silver sable" is stored, according to Vilneus, but it's at the end of a long corridor, a death trap if you're being chased by a monster>the only escape is back somehow>Harald opens up the webbed door as Ida is caught and webbed up>Vilneus calls them suckers and makes a run for it, only to be swallowed up by the spider spawn swarm>Harald attacks the spider with his bow, but she uses her reaction to move out of the way, along with her prey. (And as mentioned before, we didn't realize he should be getting stamina back, so he really only had one manouvre a day.)>He's getting low on health from the spider swarms and has to make his own retreat. He falls to negative health and recovers again (now with one point of exhaustion) and is then cut off from his escape by the queen, which had Ida in mouth, continuing on her circumventing path and ending up between him and the exit (it's a maze, lots of criss-cross)>he gets into negative health again, and the spider drops Ida to start webbing him up>at this point Ida finally makes her save and breaks out of being restrained
>>97818621Why are you so angry about this lmao
>>97818670>I freely share information on challenge rating, I think that's something that would be intuitive to a character and I don't want the players to just assume encounters are level appropriate, this way there can be informed choices on when to retreat>the arachnid queen is level 5, they were level 1 at this point>Ida had no hope of beating it off and saving her friend>but she did have a magic bean>she spelled out the word "boeten" or in english "serve justice">when the smoke dissipated, the spider was tied up in four giant handcuffs>before it could escape, or the swarms could catch up to them, she hoisted Harald over her shoulder and ran for the exit>they'd saved the bandits from the wizard and survived an encounter with the arachnid queen>this made them heroes in their eyes>the bandits gave them a place to stay and recuperate and told them what the wizard had done>apparently, the man had arrived from outside the barony on a flying machine, not unlike Koenraad's>he had a satellite phone with him, on which they were called by a pompous man that quickly hung up on themComment too long.

>>97818467Nah, I don't encounter zombies. Try again. I'll let you know when you've got it right.
>>97818467I will do you one better, this is a campaign about a lich, the party is inside the dungeon and the entrance collapses.

What head canons do you use at your games?
The redacted text is hysterical to me. I also find the couple of spoiler flubs adds to the joke
>>97818486Mainly what >>97816957 says>dude trust me, the master of fucking-with-memories Dominate Ante that also has fucking FORTITUDE as a main discipline got shanked like a dumbass outside the city walls. By who? Doesn't matter, who cares, maybe the brujahIf anything close to that had happened then the Brujah would never shut the fuck up about it. I like the idea of Ventru being in one of the Aralu coffins, still prince over Enoch and using the Tal Mahe Ra to tard wrangle the other Antes' world-ending schemes under the guise of a Gehenna cult, holding down the fort until daddy Caine returns with the milk and cigarettes from the store For Troile eating Brujah fair and square and the Trujah being rightfully seething, sure, why not. Brujah as a nerd, embraced a fiery BPD chick Troile, she later fucked him over and went for Moloch demoncock when the whole Carthage thing happened. I don't care much for Brujah history so someone feel free to correct me if anyone else has better ideas

>>97818386>>97818390This is perfect, but the post with the map probably isn't needed
>>97818692I like our map, and I thought that posting it will in a way "lock off" a bit the anon who posts it all from just continuing with other pages (that was my whole master plan, really). In case one of the other MPs shuts down, it also helps to have two pages in case MHA needs to be OP.
>>97818692Oh, and one more thing. I did make a single post version, which has that "For more" part on the first page, and also links one of the recent threads where MHA was OP and all the pages were posted, similar to that "Older Version" section. But I thought about that after posting, and only added it to threadslave notes.

>>97817992It's because 5e24 is a reversion back to a lot of 4e philosophy and one of those is freely buyable and craftable magic items, they're an expected part of your "build". I'm honestly surprised they didn't reintroduce Residuum, I mean Mercer still has it in Exandria. Hell, he even uses the 4e pantheon.
To repost from last thread...>>97805726>>97802916>>97807836I've been digging more though feats and well, found Crossbow Expert. the 2024 version kinda stinks (Instead of the BA attack, it's free TWF fighting style with Light crossbows) and the free hand crossbow shot is kinda seen as OP... so part of me is thinking why not give it the same treatment that Polemaster had, just make the damage dice a d4 but also allow any type of crossbow to use it. It is a extra shot, but it's low damage no matter the weapon used.------Crossbow Expert (Rewritten)Ability Score Increase. Increase your Dexterity score by 1, to a maximum of 20.Ignore Loading. You ignore the Loading property of all crossbow weapons. If you are holding one of them, you can load a piece of ammunition into it even if you lack a free hand.Firing in Melee.

Well its April 1st again. I return first of all to remember one of /tg/'s finest works: Dungeons the Dragoning 40,000 7th edition. Last year I gave the game a revision, stapling both books together so it could rival a phonebook.This year I have more DtD news: 8th edition is on the way. If you want to try out 7th edition before then though the book is in the same spot as always: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/2/folders/1HTYsfwiIWlGg4UZb5Bi32PYgTxKHUIp8There's also links to a place where you can wait for updates on a playtest. Otherwise, I'll just drop it all in the folder when its done. Happy April Fools.
Hell yeah, this game has been my autistic obsession since like 2017, happy to see it getting updates
>>97817778That's some good cover at. Might I suggest giving the lady of pain the VtM rose?
>Join open table night for 5E>Playing a monster expert ranger>combat starts >pull out monster manual and read the stats >DM accuses me of meta gaming This is a DM skill issue right? It’s a roleplaying GAME. Why is he upset that I’m just using all the tools of the game to be a better player
>>97818555Mod thread.
>>97818555The player character is "supposed" to have quite limited information, with the details of statblocks "supposed" to come from knowledge-related skills rather than sourced externally, though 5e doesn't have much clear framework for how good a skill roll gives what result and the bonus scaling is a horrible constraint.It's a holdover from Gygaxian adversarial DMing where the players were expected to puzzle these things out from the results of roles, to my understanding.

Why do OSR boomers act like their shitty rollslop is good? It's unplayable and boring. Every edition is better than the last, so they are willingly choosing to play a bad edition. Wtf?Pic related, a shitty OSR dungeon
>>97814481I try to ignore then and just run BECMI
>>97814680Lol, no. Everybody with any understanding of the game knows that UA is in large part not very good, and DSG and WSG are mostly garbage. There's a reason we talk about first decade D&D, and it's the the quality of books dropped drastically after 1983ish.
>>97816086I thought it was because you're a giant faggot and you need to perform mental gymnastics to try and figure out how to try and steer your little slice of the OSR ship into fag town.
>>97814481The OSR community is full of elitist boomers or insufferable NuSR hippies HOWEVERThe games, speaking for the OSR side in my experience, are good and have an overall good mentality behind it. There are game designers that I personally absolutely despise that still contributed to good shit I occasionally pilfer.
I came into this thread to talk shit about OSR but then I went through a bunch of my old content and realized that the campaigns in which I leaned into the OSR thing were the best campaigns I've run
Any suggestions for systems built for urban fantasy settings? I know there's World of Darkness but I'm looking for something that is more combat focused and less story telling. Monster of the Week has been suggested to me but I'm just not a big fan of PBTA, the systems just don't feel like a game to me as bullshit as that sounds.
>>97815373Call of Cthulhu using the Pulp expansion could work. Characters are much more competent and survivable, and able to do more fantastic things, and there are rules for playing psychics or mystics.
>>97816551>Tom LancerIs that a short of Tom Bloom, the woke cancer and author of Lancer?

>>97815373Either Savage Worlds or WitchCraft, depending on what's exactly your goalMotW is a memegame that does fuck all, befitting an EHP game.
>>97817523Characters are as competent as always. They simply have more HP.Which still works.

>>97817966They just haven’t been printing any that are worth the space(the Adventure ones are decent).

Anything off of Warhammer TV that's worth watching? Been thinking about pirating it, but not sure if it's worth the time.
>>97812612Most of the shows are nothing special story wise really and plenty of it just bolter porn. Decent enough to put in the background while painting, but not much else. "Interrogator" was the only one I recall that actually had something more akin to a decent story and it's very Dark Heresy coded. Few Hammer&Bolter episodes were pretty good as well. But it's been a long while since I last checked, maybe something new worth watching has appeared
