>>93945104She pretty much replaced Thamyris as the basic hacker character.
>>93945088Have you seen the Sphinx?
>>93944398is this EU only? these models look nice [expensive tho]
>>93945178There are local resellers in America and other continents too.
Are there any games where being a blaster caster is optimal?
>>93942562>sorcerer expert path to impose banes on enemy resistance rollsThe fucking sorcerer's own outburst does more damage than the spells used to fuel it at later levels, which is kinda retarded but yes, sorcerers can blow shit up in Shadow
blaster caster run bartertown
>>93937943There are so many ways to bypass/ignore resistances that they're borderline trivialized for any dedicated blaster.
>>93942556Maybe he's assuming Sorcery.
Every version of OG DnD your optimal caster is almost always Necromancer, we once had fun seeing now tough of a dungeon with could get through with a borderline all Necromancer party. Using the 2ed Necromancer book it was Antomist Necromancer, Noble Necromancer, Classic Necromancer, Paladin of Helm and Cleric of Helm since he was ok with mindless undead. Oh look at the time, it's poltergist and crawling claw o'clock, all day every day for five levels!
About to run a scifi game and would like suggestions for horrible/funny ways people could have been killed in space. Aiming for Byford Dolphin Incident tier.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to the first decade of TSR-era D&D, derived systems, and compatible content.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade—less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching meta-plots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started.>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

>>93944577you didn't have to be mean to him, I didn't think he said anything egregious or even off
>>93944749Does it not clarify in BX, like in adnd, that when the length of the room or corridor is less than what this range represents, that you roll for each 10ft, so in a 40ft room its 1d4, a 50ft 1d5, etc. it's in the dmg, but i assume it must be somewhere in bx
>>93945070>it's in the dmg, but i assume it must be somewhere in bxBad assumption. That type of more detailed procedure is always a mark of AD&D, Basic cuts all of it for simplicity.
>>93945070"The Wandering Monster will be 20-120 feet away from the party when encountered (roll 2d6, multiply the result by 10) in a direction of the DM's choosing, and will be headed toward the player characters." B53. OSE CF echoes this. Sensible that AD&D has something for it, does OD&D have that too?
>>93945111>does OD&D have that too?No, OD&D just has a tighter range to start with.>Sighting Monsters: Players will see monsters at 20-80 feet (roll a pair of four-sided dice to determine the distance) unless they are *surprised* by the monster.>Surprise: A condition of surprise can only exist when one or both parties are unaware of the presence of the other. Such things as ESP'ing, light, and noise will negate surprise. If the possibility for surprise exists roll a six-sided die for each party concerned. A roll of 1 or 2 indicates the party is *surprised*. Distance is then 10-30 feet.
So, is Titus now the face/main character of 40K? This is very odd.
>>93943167As the "AAA" comes from investment reliability, the brainless money-printers like EA's sports titles could count.
>>93943167>there's no such fucking thing as a "AAAA" video game.Term has been in use for a while in two forms AAA+ and AAAABasically games that cost hundreds of millions and require hundreds if not thousands of workersRemember when GTA4 was biggest thing?Well its basically that manyfold.
>>93936475>2/3 of the playerbase lost in less than 2 weeks isn't goodyeah, it's about average
>>93936879>where is this number coming fromi made it up
>>93943946>HFCS>in cokeWhat? Is this some murrican thing I'm too European to understand?>>93944172>Its /v/ who also brought Oldhammer backWhat oldhammer? Space Marine 2 is nuhammer, it have all nu GW bullshit starting with primaris.
That there should be things you can’t ever hope to defeat > I'm reminded of the original Realms campaign, and the Company of Crazed Venturers attacking Shaan the Serpent-Queen (who briefly appeared in a Wizards Three DRAGON article). She was busy working magic on a small island off Mintarn. They attacked, broke her concentration, and she looked up with an irritated frown. They bid her stop, or they'd destroy what she was working on; to demonstrate, one of the Company mages touched (and disintegrated) a stone he was standing beside.> She shook her head in derision, and touched the island beneath them, disintegrating IT, and dumping the Company into the chilly sea waves for a long swim...whilst she turned back to her spellcasting, floating on nothing and ignoring them once more.> A heavy-handed lesson, but...well, Larloch's in the same league, and more. Just consider him a power of the Realms and Don't Go There.Do you agree?
>>93937572Cthulu has had official stats since DND was primarily a wargame and I promise you he is much more than that
>>93937007This reads like an atheist thinking he’s a genius for trying to invent God without actually understanding why that divinity is unapproachable for mortals
>>93937743Cry more baby girlMaybe what you were saying is just retarded
>>93939928>Literally never been true. He almost gets his ass beat in the novels even.Read the novel, they're evenly matched at close combat and Soth chooses to disengage after Strahd threatens him with magic. Soth's inner thoughts even reveals he considers Strahd "equally matched" him. If you compare their 3e stats, Soth is a fighter 7/rogue knight 10 in the War of the Lance splat while Strahd is a fighter 4/necromancer 16 in Ravenloft Gazetteer I, so Strahd is overall higher level.
>>93937007Yes: There should be obstacles that players cannot overcome.

>>93945273It is pretty good because most of the time it is an indestructible enchantment in the command zone that gives your big creatures double damage. It can be hard to interact with it and RG has tons of ways to grant your creatures double strike and trample, so once Xenagos is on the board it is very likely that someone is dying this turn.

>>93944885a mediocre side board card?
>>93944885Here's what an actual perfectly designed Planeswalker looks like
>>939448853 mana cardno board impact in 60%+ of board statescan't protect herself from on-curve threats (well anything 2+ mana which is basically everything)has a niche utility of a hoser at which she's worse than a 1 mana artifact lmaoa pointless lifedrain ultimate that isn't anywhere close to big enough to win a game on its own or save you from getting outracedDon't forget the absolutely anti-synergistic nombo design where she's a lifegain card designed to help stabilize you against aggro, and only gains life if you're against aggro since it requires creature cards to exile- and yet her -1 ability is almost always only going to hit tokens, which don't go to the graveyard, and only hits one at a time, and doesn't feed her +1 the next turn even if it hits a nontoken 1 drop since it exiles it, and then even with all that if the opponent is on aggro they will simply run you or her over because she puts no blockers in front of them or removes any real threats.Now stand aside and let me show you what a real well designed planeswalker looks like
>>93945054>watch early access event>guy attacks in with a flying creature, ninjutsu's it to get out kaito>taps opponents creature to protect kaito>....>opponent just flashes in a creature on his end step>untaps, attacks the 2 loyalty kaito and kills him>kaito player's board is empty and opponent has 2 creatures out
>>93945081Kaito player was just bad idk what to tell you
>Female gnoll player character>She isn't wildly misandristI hate OOC PC's.
>>93926934Not even. 4e literally put out an article saying that not all gnolls are evil, even despite their probably being a demonic creation. Hell, I'd argue that their PC writeup in 4e is probably the most nuanced and interesting one they've ever had.Also, good on 4e for finally coming up with a reason why Baphomet and Yeenoghu hate each other.
>>93939880Book 13 is outThe Gnoll moot isn't until volume 10 which is still a ways off
>>93939880no. They were yet another goblinoid-ish entity in the original DnD. they were Gnome+Troll hybrids, hence the name. Basically they had too many creatures that appearance wise would end up being too similar to each other in the goblinoid family, so some of them like Gnolls and Kobolds got changed to be more animalistic. and any connection to making them more african tribes-like came a good bit after they became hyena folk.
>>93932736I could be mistaken but I recall reading somewhere that spotted Hyenas actually have the opposite going on. becoming erect is a sign of submissiveness and vulnerability going on. and that its unheard of for the females to penetrate regardless of the other gender.
>>93923529>>93923607both right, both wrong. Not all furries ruin things, but there is more then enough that DO ruin things and they are very loud and have zero self awareness. Or if they do have self awareness they deliberately continue to engage in the behaviour because the reactions of others bring them joy beyond measure.but on the other hand, Anti-Furries ruin any chance for legit conversations about beast people type races because they have a complete and total meltdown every time they see someone make a character with a 'furry' race. and like the furries that ruin things, they lack the self awareness as well to see how they are impacting others. Anyone who disagrees must be a furry in their eyes afterall
Let's talk about the greatest role playing game in the MEGAverse!
>>93906167It really bums me out that we didn't get a bunch of schlocky tie in fiction from rifts like just about every other game got in the nineties. It really seems like it should have happened.
>>93940171We did get a few, but they were so bad that even Palladium fans didn't buy them.
>>93940171We did get the greatest game on the Ngage Speaking of that person who wrote that Dune Splicers System Crash fanfic put out another chapter. I understand only a third of the terms in it!https://archiveofourown.org/works/52968823/chapters/150388954
>>93930688Yes, that's why you ask for whoppers. Honestly it sounds like a deal you make with demons in this setting.
>>93943507I think I'd rather just buy a scroll & learn them from that. I just want D-Pockets/Envelope etc.
ITT: unsafe fantasy art
>>93937751>What do normoids think happens in combat anyways? That it's like a PG-13 action movie where anyone who dies is knocked down and there's no blood, strangulation, death spasms, dismemberment, etc?
>>93938990what?? Western civilization is the moral bastion of the world
>>93937751Having a Tzimisce player is the biggest red flag for any table.
>>93938990Are you ignoring the mass rapes committed by the mongolians, Chinese, and Imperial Japanese?
>>93928447Nice faked screenshot of a Formian Giant. I can tell that you're a subhuman third-worlder who gets into endless rage storms over superior Americans.

>>93944910I guess she is in the sense she’s better written so she has kind of a coherent selfish ideology rather than just doing things arbitrarily. They’ve kind of emphasized some parts of her WHF lore that no one ever did anything with to give some depth too, like how fucked it was that the only person she ever truly loved unconditionally above herself was also an abusive husband because a magic sword hollowed him out into being a conduit for the god of murder and violence.
>>93945060it's an entertaining gimmick that gives what are otherwise very boring models a lot of character.And you can approach it in many different ways with arbitrarily different results both aesthetically and narratively.
>>93945076New models are great! Most standout that isn't Ush is Goremayne with the big Intestine powdered wig, Morbheg knights are great with the little trumpet and entite skin of a guy banner. The cryptguard and their little drummers and busted ass halberds. They can be a bit samey but I imagine that's just a ghoul thing.Even if the Lore does more heavy lifting than the rank and file I still think they're neat.
>>93945120She was pretty good in the sundering books, since she was fucking awful but did seem to care about Malekith and Aenaeion she just didn't give a shit about the rest of the world. For all intents and purposes anyone connected to her deserved the best and everyone else was a stepping stone to get there.
>>93944970>I thought that stormcast where the cool people, who fought in the prior wars or even in WFB times, not some dude that died in 2ed and got resurected to be stormcastThey were. And some still are.However, if they die over and over again, they loose more and more of themselves, so of the initial (1st edition) stormcasts, many are lost (and therefore dead for good), so Sigmar raises new heroes to replenish the ranks. And those, obviously, have relatives living somewhere in the AoS worlds.

>"cool, a new fantasy system with solo potential">just end up rolling a new Scarlet Heroes character in the endEvery time.
>>939426761 system is all you need
Turned Godbound into an incredibly schizo "Worldwalker" game set in the Infinite Worlds setting. It's total slop (my PC is a wannabe highschool shounen hero bound to Sword, Passion, and Endurance, and he's currently stuck in the Madoka setting while his worldwalk recharges) but I'm having a blast, so I guess I'm doing something right.
>>93907314>TQ: Favorite settingI've been surprised that my favorite setting has become low magic medieval fantasy. It was never my favorite genre when it came to other media but I enjoy it RPGs more than I expected I would.Zombie Apocalypse is a classic choice and Modern Demon Worlds have been good choices for horror games.Also a surprise to me, I grew up with Shadowrun and can't find any motivation to play transhumanism Cyberpunk shit on my own.

Welcome to TODD! This thread is for OPEN discussion of TSR-era Dungeons & Dragons (OD&D, Basic D&D, and AD&D including 2e) and related games, such as retroclones and OSR-adjacent games (OSE, BFRPG, S&W, LotFP, DCC, C&C, etc.). Free discussion of house rules and modifications is encouraged. For the sake of clarity, B/X is the assumed default system for any conversation unless otherwise indicated (but please do feel free to indicate otherwise).previous thread: >>93858085>What's your favourite race or class from an OSR or OSR-adjacent game or supplement?>How's your campaign going?

>>93938341nou
>>93938152An Echo Resounding is okay, might do what you're looking for enough you can fuck with. There was an older pbta project called Stonetop that had a lot of village centred gameplay that was a bit more in depth than The Quiet Year but I think it was abandoned. Might still be able to find it. Random events per month or whatever time frame could come from the Adventurer's Almanac. The solo games thread should have a bunch of oracles for that kind of thing as well.
>>93944352Nah just run mörk börg.
>>93944508Fuck you too then bitch
>>93944803Seconding Mörk Börg, it's where OSR and more traditional oldschool styles meet, making it a good baseline to go from.
