Which is more fun to play: Magic the Gathering or Pokemon TCG? Gameplay specifically, not collectingt. card game noob who wants to play one or the other
>>98021623I have quite liked dandan
>>98020566Pokemon was fun when it still supported double battles. That was the last time I played.MtG is good played casually but the competitive meta seems to have skewed towards turn 1 rape.
>>98021634So it's turning into Yugioh?At least tell me their one turn kill isn't going to take fifteen minutes while they painstakingly activate chains of effects that allow them to search for more effect monsters and spell cards to activate other effects, to etc.
>>98020566Baseline mechanics? MtG, hands down. The core of the game is well-structured, the interactions consistent, and it doesn't have a winmore snowball like prize cards.However, given the current state of MtG, I can't recommend that anyone pick it up.
>>98020566>ant to try pokemon get the gb pokemon tcg and emulate it.>MtG is in a shambles rn unfortunatelyHi, it's me, the guy who posted here thousands of years ago and a name fag.If you play in a kitchen with only 1 friend, pokémon is fine and you can buy preconstruct decks quickly, however it's bad at more than 1vs1 since it's not supported whatsoever.Mtg, while being SHIT has at least a solid rule fundation.So MAKE YOUR OWN CARDS and have fun. I'm at my 6th deck now, I'm sure that you retards can do as much.Cheers.

>>98021687Yeah, and he'd had those models for a while.WGA is taking their sweet time with something.Hell, they still haven't restocked their giant spider set.I need more spoders for my haunted wood.
>>98022639>WGA is taking their sweet time with somethingOld rumor was they were going to be part of the new starter and were waiting on the updated rules. Current rumor is they are having coordination issues between the US and UK facilities. I wish company's would be like old FFG and openly publish the current status of their products.
>>98022945Eh, I can also see why you might not.Public announcement of a mundane cockup can easily spiral into investment flight.
How do you justify the usage of melee weapons in a science fiction universe with powerful guns? >hard mode: no rule of coolIn Dune it is because lasers would create a nuclear explosion killing everyone.In LOGH it is an explosive gas that ignites from laser weaponry.In Star Wars it seems to be mostly a cultural thing for Jedi and Sith to keep using lightsabers.In Warhammer 40k it seems to me to be heavy metal rule of cool.
>>98014703And everyone else will be happy for the excuse to nuke you to stone age to ensure that no further "accidents" happen.

>>98013338>How do you justify the usage of melee weapons in a science fiction universe with powerful guns?Not everyone has guns. End of discussion.
>>98014008Speaking as a Brit, good. I look out of my living room window at the slow parade of crackheads, losers, fuckups and chavs and despair at the thought of that stagnant gene-pisspot spreading across the stars. Then I look at the TV and see the spineless, chinless cunts who run the place and actively hope they make it into space. To be quickly kicked out of an airlock, hopefully whilst wearing a suit so they can slowly die of asphixiation as their O2 supply drains.
For no reason at all I recently remembered Man O' War and its expansion Plague Fleet (and Sea of Blood)Is it any good? Some people say it's one of GW's best efforts and really simple and fun, never mind a fleet would likely be really easy to paint.I have some of the old plastic ships from the intro box, but I'm sure 3D printed options are easy to find.
>>98016851I always found it sad that the game didn't last long enough to really fill out the minor fleets. Skaven, for instance, seem to have a fleet entirely made up of specialist vessels, whilst Dark Elves really lacked choice (though arguably not as badly as Dark Eldar in BFG).
>>98022074>It's a self confidence they seem to lack nowadaysI don't know they did put out the titan and areonautica games, resurrected blood bowl and a bunch of other stuff. It anything they're experimenting more now than in previous decades, where the most they did was put out a new box for space hulk and dreadfleet.
>>98022100Ah yes, I looked into BFG fleets and dark eldar had like...two vessels? Escort and cruiser, right?
>>98019731>Was Man O' War supposed to be the Battlefleet Gothic but for WFB?No, Battlefleet Gothic was supposed to be MoW but for 40k.
>>98022472True, (and Dark Future, of all things) but none of them are things I'd expect from them now, if it was a blank slate. It wouldn't be 'good business sense' to suddenly have a 1/300 scale product line, for instance, and certainly not an affectionate parody of American Football. They feel very 'safe' - almost gun-shy, really. Then again, I'm not employed as a FTSE corporate strategist, so it's easy for me to daydream. Maybe some of their famous flops hurt more than they want to let on.>>98022476It was a blatant excuse to cover up design and production shortfalls/decisions, but I like the idea of "this is based on a particular historical conflict, the Eldar were only there as scattered pirate bands". Shows a bit of imagination you know? Granted, it's annoying when it's used as the reason for why no expansion of nu-epic, but that loops back to point up there. Very cautious.
How high maintaiance is geothermal energy?I'm trying to build a post-post apoc setting and trying to go for relatively resilient energy sources. I'm currently mostly doing coal, wood and wind. Any pointers welcome.
Depends on the system. Many involve hot water, which is ironically an incredibly dirty substance that rapidly picks up impurities and becomes either intensely caustic or leads to scale buildups, which leads to a reduction in service-life of many parts. Most of the older geothermal heating systems used in Norway suffer extensively from issues with using hot water.It ultimately comes down to questions of cost. You could theoretically build a perfectly enclosed system with treated pipes and maybe even use some alternative working fluid, and then you would only need to replace the moving parts in the turbine/generators (assuming no other points of failure come from manufacturing/use). The more spent up-front, the less maintenance needed, but with the relatively low-returns of geothermal energy, most systems tend to be far from ideal.
>>98023007As far as I am aware, the main limiting factor is the initial setup. To reach boiling temperatures consistently, you have to drill down 3-4KM. Thats doable, but a serious engineering task.However, once the initial construction is done? All you are doing is running water through pipes. *eventually* those pipes will degrade and repairs or replacements will become necessary, but with proper materials for the task that shouldn't happen anytime soon.Something like an earthquake could fuck your system up in a hurry, however. Repairs will not be easy. At that depth, the soil itself is boiling temperature and you also have to deal with the pressure. You probably need to have some kind of robot to do the repair work on your behalf.
>>98023007Well, it's going to be at least as demanding as coal since they would use the same turbines. The big issue for me is that geothermal seems vulnerable to earthquakes and works best in earthquake prone areas, and can also make earthquakes more common. The big win for wind is that once you have electricity you can make shitty turbines pretty much anywhere at nearly any scale. All you need for one is a conductive wire and a magnet (you can make one if you have a wire)Actually, solar reflectors is probably a viable option too. A big enough array of mirrors or lenses will harvest a crazy ammount of energy. A solar forge would be well worth the investment if you didnt live on top of a surface coal/shale deposit
>>98023007Which game are you using this setting for?

>>98022977>>98023017
>>98023017>you'll quickly realize that the they/them guy is a raging homosexualCAPTAIN OBVIOUS, HERO TO THE BLIND, DEAF, and DUMB!>and the Starfinder designer is a FTM tranny.I actually did look up that, there is no evidence of such. He is a big kitsunefag so it wouldn't be SUPRISING but there really is not much other than being a typical theater kid leftist.
This is a pretty interesting little wargame. For some reason, I expected it to be more DnD-like but it's a fairly simple, but poorly formatted wargame. There's a free reformatting/organization version online I used and I've run a few games. First game I just straight up did the Battle of Balin's Tomb in Helms deep and it worked very well, however the troll managed to kill frodo and legolas. second match we did a bandit camp raid, and I find the whole "hero" and "super-hero" thingOtherwise it's a fine game.
>>98008187The fantasy monsters have listed mass combat troops that they fight as, e.g. a troll fights as eight Heavy Foot or whatever. So you roll for the troll as if you were rolling for the attack of eight Heavy Foot infantry figures. It's pretty straightforward.Man-to-Man on the other hand has no support for monsters at all.
>>98011781>Why has Chainmail gained such a following today, considering that back in the 70s almost nobody actually used it to play D&D?It's because even though it was little-used at the time, Chainmail is actually pretty thoughtfully integrated into OD&D and improves several aspects of the game, which makes it more fun to play. Fairly straightforward really.
>>98016220You have to use the Fantasy Combat Table for Man to Man.
>>98018395The FCT has no entry for normal men. That only works for hero-types, and with them mass combat never applied vs. monsters in the first place.
>>98015725Yeah, honestly the biggest issue with Chainmail is organization. A lot of shit isn't explained clearly. I didn't even know there were axe-throwing rules because only vikings and dwarfs can do it and it's only mentioned there. It's designed very strangely compared to most games of its type today. Like today you'd probably come up with a baseline soldier:1 health/wounds6 inches move1 attack/roundx+ to saveThen you just edit around around. If you want stronger guys, change it, weaker guys, change it. Chainmail is very much just rawdogging everything.

>>98021336LSS wants you to buy the newest set. That's the beginning and end of their rationale for balance and printing. The best way they seem to have found to do that is by making every hero and set largely self-contained, and dependent on a full playset of several Ms and all Legendary equipment.It's a shame too because the core gameplay is fun, and the skill ceiling is insanely high. But if it's always "buy the newest $800 deck, roll everyone that didn't for 3 months, repeat", it gets old fast.

>>98022900Sagitaur has no base right?
>>98022878It's definitely the odd one out and feels like it's only there by company directive. It's significantly bigger than most of the other options on that list.
>>98022878Isn't the book adding some rules to create your own nemesis bosses? I would assume you can use everything.
>>98022978>createmore like customise.
>>98022998I can only speculate, but it clearly says:>Includes rules to create your own Nemesis Operatives, as well as examples to guide you>– A Nemesis Custom Builder to select traits such as allegiance, size, weapons, and special rules for each Nemesis OperativeTo me this reads like if you pick the right options to match a knight model, you can play it as the nemesis.
Post and talk about That Guys you've dealt withI'll start>So we were about 3 or 4 sessions in. My heroes had just finished the first quest in what I had intended to be a string of quests, and defeated their first boss.>This boss, however, was through a series of caves. My players did not leave any way to find their path back through the caves though, and there was no secret way out through the boss room.>So one player says "Alright. We should leave. Do I remember how to get out of this goddamn cave?">I have him roll a History check. He got an 18. So I allowed them to navigate the cave with ease. (We were on Roll 20 so I asked if he wanted to explore the remainder of the cave or just leave. They opted to just leave so I just moved them to the cave entryway)>One player then said "You shouldn't have made him do a History check. Should have been Survival">I argued that it would be history as he was trying to recall information, not follow any sort of track back.>The player who rolled also said his Survival skill was the same as his History so the roll would have been the same.>Still, the player persisted. Continuing to argue.>The rolling player looked up the definition of "History" as pertaining to D&D and it more or less says it's a recollection of information.>The "that guy" then hung up in Discord and didn't talk to us for a week. We never played that campaign again because I decided he was out, and he had more or less spoiled the mood of the campaign.
>>98016812Anyone who plays support in any system ever, then complains that they're not as durable as the tank or doing as much damage as the striker, should probably NOT BE PLAYING A FUCKING SUPPORT CLASS.

>>98021017I was never much of a historian but no I believe the anabaptist movement came about long after the cathars, if they even existed. the current menace is recent, as far as I can tell someone embraced a number of cannon fodder from local mennonites over the 60s and they got out of hand. they essentially wiped out the local sabbat and made the camarilla depart. you would think that aged vampires would learn those lessons, but no. fortunately for my peers here I've wrestled the CRA for years and I've gotten very good at it. the Queen even allows most to operate within the range of her charitable ventures, in exchange for donations, of course.now this "trueven" organization, on the other hand? sloppy sloppy sloppy! I've never understood why they let venture capital and investment funds ingore basic finance etiquette until someone wants to put the screws to them. the audit report should be sent to the IRS by next friday.
>>98021115>>98022557Seems our fighting this injustice has been noted. Received an envelope with this image on it.

>>98021609If you can get to an international airport (and tell me far enough ahead of time) I can and will arrange passage. You said Western Ukraine? I can make Belgorod but the next closest option would be in the south, Simferopol. Don't worry. It's only a soviet boarder crossing or a warzone. What could possibly go wrong. Hell if you can get to Odessa, I can figure something out even if it's not air but that's a long ways for you, I would guess. As for where in America? There's a few places I tend to recommend to fledgelings, Milwaukee comes to mind. Good town, safe for human and kidnred alike as long as you can follow the rules. You're spoiled for choice but frankly a lot of is too volatile for my taste (thus me not recommending LA or NY to you). I suppose Atlanta mostly seems settled, and hungry for new blood but just don't ask about what happened to the old guard there. I can get you set up in Brazil if you really are interested, but it's mixed down there. Probably too wild for you guys.
So... What the Hell happened to Neckbeardia?
>>98010400>>98011360I warned everyone this would happen ten years ago when the normalfag SJW invasion was in full swing, but theyw wanted to ignore it, saying that D&D was a "containment RPG" and it didn't matter. Now the ostriches are watching their niche communities overrun by freakshit as well. Good job idiots.
>>98018073Said the same thing too, remember when Tumblr was the "containment site." Then they moved to twitter after losing their porn access and HR their way into other sites and companies.
>>98004727The problem is that new tabletop games rarely come out so there isn't much to actually do on this board other than shitpost. We used to have storytimes, not anymore.
>>98021785That and most of simple this is D&D but changed enough no to sue and we made one of my homebrew ideas a core mechanic to the system. Plus let's be honest, most people who play said system are often going to go to game's discord over /tg/ and with the bluesky/reddit fags popping here to act like bitches anytime someone talks about something they don't like. Like ACKS or another system that isn't woke or at least bending the knee to them. We just going to get woke raging over Based systems and creators, and a few fags trying to act like games like trench crusade is still a thing. I mean they shat on their own lore with the no canon and everything lore is "true" and their minis still have those resin pockets in them. As well as trying to copyright EVERYTHING like their Game Workshop and all.
>>98021713They owe us an apology bro.
