There's a reason all those links and resources are in the OP. Anons put a lot of effort into creating and maintaining them, so people should read them. Those links might help solve their problems. These threads are already on the verge of being unusable trash, so let's all put in a bit of effort and appreciate what we have while we've still got it.

Do regimental detachments count as being part of the parent unit for the purpose of unit point caps? The Old World Builder makes the detachments for Nuln an upgrades to the parent unit, so you can't fit all the detachments for something like Battle March. If you're not using Nuln, then they're listed as separate units though. The way the rule is worded sounds like the detachments should be counted as separate though, so I assume this is just an mistake of the interface.

I mean how cheap/expensive is it to run a Tabletop Miniature game?

And if you roll a Netrunner it's either engage in a boring mini game that splits the party and slows down the game or use the extremely barebones Quickhacking rules.

>>98721214
It depends. Just checking out book again to not bullshit you:
>RoF based action splitting
With RoF of 2, you can move-fire-move-fire, even combine weapons (2 RoF weapons, attack with first, then second), which has high utility with specialized ammo that is basically tool to cause specific type of critical injury, which impacts enemy.
>Aimed shots to cripple mobility

Skill issue. RED netrunning is fully deterministic; a netrunner can plan their entire turn as soon as they finish their previous turn (with only a few exceptions where you need to gather information at the start of your next turn; which means you can plan half your turn.)

Without having to deal with range or movement my netrunning turns actually are faster than my meat turns and there's no reason yours can't be too if you read the fucking book and learn your role.

>>98734471
The problem is alot of those options are highly situational and most combat encounters boil down to just rushing the enemy with your strongest weapon (usually melee/martial arts because the armor rules make them better than ranged). With investment in just a handful of skills you can trivialize most encounters. Seriously make a character with decent Evasion and Resist Torture/Drugs and you've neutralized most threats a GM can throw at you, if you really want to have no risk put a few points into Cybertech and Brawling (or better yet a martial art that lets you escape grapples) and you're set.

Like sure, you could shoot someone's legs, but that's a -8 penalty and it's usually better to focus fire and outright kill the guy. You could use suppressive fire but it's a x2 skill for a mediocre effect with poorly written rules and goofy immersion breaking game logic. You could pack a shotgun, but it's damage/range is terrible and basically a worse grenade in every way except price, which players are likely packing. Using a car door as a shield isn't even outlined in the rules as something you can do RAW and depending on the GM they might just say a car door is not a suitable shield for a number of reasons. Choking people out is the only thing you've outlined that's a good, versatile tactical option besides just attacking.

Red's problem is it has a very strict action economy and terrible game balance. You can only move and take one action per turn and it's too easy to min max alot of the challenge out of the game. If you don't do that and go for more flavorful builds, the game can easily become a slog due to the armor/evasion rules. Combat rules in Red are ass and need to be updated if a second edition is ever published.

>>98737676
Netrunning being ass has been a common complaint since the game came out. It's not that the rules are too complex, it's just the underlying gameplay is dull and not what most players want out of Netrunner gameplay.

>>98737900
When the gameplay was complex and involved people ran it in separate sessions if at all. RED takes long strides to integrating netrunning into round to round gameplay and bringing the runner into the gig.

Quickhacks definitely need a second pass; they're one of the weakest implementations of 2077 concepts to be found in the CEMK, but most complaints over RED netrunning have seemed to me to be from people who didn't read the chapter, are stuck with bad runners who didn't read the chapter or people who won't ever be satisfied with hacking as a minigame because they're really just prissy about specialty roles that do things they can't.

Shonen protag tenacity and always persisting without breaking mentally. But then also extremely vibes based, probably appearing superstitious to others. insisting on weird actions and paths to take, because you're attuned to the eldritch and see paths forward to deal with the threat that others do not. That is if you want to play the final secret ending John Bloodborne. You can also just be unga bunga, too dumb to be influenced by lovecraftian horrors, but strong enough to punch them- bluepilled normal ending-type John Bloodborne.

If going for the former you might want to get divination spells and be the guy who rolls bones and shit on the ground, and be a bit twitchy and off.

You bring up a lot of really good points. I ultimately enjoy the idea of a buff/maintenance loop as a gameplay atom.

Wish you could've seen my reaction at the derp of the capstone. I don't understand how I miss incredibly obvious mistakes like the capstone; I'll constrain what actions are eligible and tighten it up as mentioned.

I ran two, had a friend run one, and am in the process of getting a third up and running with the help of that friend. Lessons learned.

>>The ship is home base, the islands are the adventure of the week.
>>Weather and random encounters at sea are to add drama to the current adventure.
>> Most players DO NOT, want to actually be Pirates...
Faggots, wanna roleplay being mischievous retards at sea rather than actual criminals rollingmyeyes.gif
>>Designate a npc Captain who either acts as quest giver but is irrelevant to the game, or session 0 everyone has a predetermined role with checks and balances.

For example, we have a captain who is in charge of combat scenarios, but a quartermaster who is in charge of the day to day events on the boat, a financer/representative either elected by the crew to voice complaints/ideas or selected by the Pirate King who owns the boat. (This is actually true to life) A (used for scifi pirate setting used by my friend) doctor who has the authority to declare any player unfit for duty. This allows everyone at the table to feel some sense of power and ability to mutiny/take command during scenes in game.

>> Break the party up, give them something all to do. But usually no more than three things happening at once.

Shore party is about to raid a local mansion, skeleton crew guarding the ship all of a sudden are about to be boarded by a suspicious pirate hunter who hasn't figured them out yet. Third group is in the bottom of the ship dealing with a hostage from a previous session who has now escaped their bonds and desperately trying to escape and signal for help.

>>Give everyone a job during ship combat,

Someone is leading the (canons) gun crews, someone is leading the marksmen, someone is steering the ship, someone is leading the healing/moving wounded off the deck, someone is patching holes/putting out fires, reinforcing the hull/mast whatever etc etc.

>>Establish rival pirate crews that either work for the same Pirate King, or are just competitors to the players.

These guys will always be your ace up your sleeve to keep your players on track or keep the scenes coherent. For example, you dawdled to long and your rivals pulled of the governor's mansion heist before you, now you have to go rob them before they make off your prize. They up showed you at the local tavern when recruiting and are paying double what you are to get new bodies on board their boat. They actually are nipping at your heels to get to the treasure on the island first, or they are sailing behind you, but letting you first fight the ship that they intend to rob you of.

And on a personal note, I plan my sessions and campaigns with the 5 room dungeon setup as story beats, and in no particular order depending on what the players do. I just check it off on my own screen.

Part 3/?

On some sort of island, bay, or in the water with no wind on our side. We have to sneak past a blockade near the cape/port. We must have the dramatic showdown before they find our hidden pirate base.

And for each session, we have a random spattering of weekly adventures:
>> Ship needs supplies
>> Bad weather has blown us off course
>> Rumor has it that there is buried treasure near the port town.
>> We spotted a juicy prize, but she has an escort.
>>The crew has come down with disease and can't function while either our rivals or pirate hunters are about to make our day harder.
>> The ship unexpectedly is sinking and must be repaired either at sea or on land.
>> We must behave and make the sale at Trinidad or receive our pay from the Pirate King... But some random rival is about to throw a wrench in the works.

I'll post more later tonight or if the thread is still up tomorrow. Hope this helps someone.

Are you being deliberately stupid? I'm talking about printers you autistic fuck. Of course it's cheaper to buy a piece of shit and run it until it dies than it is to buy overpriced toys. Nobody is arguing otherwise. What I'm arguing (and what you were originally also arguing, until you sperged out and moved the goalposts) is that they're not all cheap pieces of shit, and you didn't have to buy a cheap piece of shit.
>At BEST you're saying you bought a stupid expensive printer and barely use it, whereas my cheap reasonably priced printer runs near nonstop 6-8 months a year.
Projecting, or just lying? These are my two cheapies. The Mars 2 arrived with a dead screen but has been problem free since; Elegoo was still making good stuff when they were new to the market. The Saturn 3 has been repaired twice under warranty. Not pictured is my Heygears (which has been problem free) nor my Saturn 2, which was out of warranty when it shat the bed for the second and final time and the cost of repair didn't make sense, so I threw it out. Believe it or not, there are a few of us in this thread that are not Indian, not fat, not unemployed, and do in fact own and use printers. Some of us have been doing it for a while in fact. That Mars 2 was purchased new. I'm a bit embarrassed by what I paid for it but again, they were using higher quality components back then because we hadn't yet convinced them not to.

Now that you've seen (some of) my printers, let's see one of yours.

Actually, while the breasts and penis were commonly uncovered in their art, the vagina was commonly covered.
One might infer that the female genitals were seen as too lust-provoking to put on public display. Given that the genitals are the literal sex, whereas the tits are for nourishing babies, there is some logic to this.

>>98738629
No. An RPG is something played at the table with friends interacting. Screens take up enough of modern life already, poisoning tabletop with them is cancerous.
And most RPG's are easy to run and play without an app, even those famous for being crunchy. If your game needs an app to run smoothly then it's a poorly designed game.

>>98738856
So just make all the characters on pen and paper. Nothing is stopping you. A Lancer mech isn't any more complicated than a Pathfinder character.

Like I'm sorry the app is slick and attractive so you have to hate it, but it isn't required. Character and mech fit easily on 2, maybe three sheets of paper.
