>Choose any number of any players rear guards

The implication that we might see rearguards that cause a Dominate attack disturbs me.

>>97026675
The main idea is that you buff your own guys with this while still getting 1 dominate swing into your opponent.
It's alright.
>>
>>97026526
Dragdriver doesn't cost SB1, can grab Morfessa, doesn't potentially fuck up your board and has no practical conditions; I might be missing the on retire rearguards Luard has that makes the retire a boon that we haven't gotten in english. It's good against decks with no recursion and if your toolbox is fucked, so it patches a hole Luard has.
>>97026682
Or buff the dominated unit, like how Dominate is supposed to work, but due to D Shiranui's abundance of multiattackers you always buff them for more value.

GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.
Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.

A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image (follow the URL to get to a folder with some files, read the files to get to the archive). Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.

If you're wondering where to start:
- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.
- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.
- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.
- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.

Thread question: How much time and effort do you spend when building NPCs (not mooks)?

I think above all else the most powerful spells he could possibly have are ones that let him read minds and know what peoples intentions are. you don't need to cast lvl 5 fireball at the peasants (unless you want to) when you can just use your magic to find the most obedient enforcers available and have them beat them into submission the good 'ol way.

second most powerful would be any spell that could rewrite someones personality or at the very least that could make someone like you, charm magic in other words.

It does also have dimension door, so it can just drop on top of anyone ranged. Assuming that it doesn't just win on initiative, teleport in, and stun everyone all at once.

Really just another reason to invest in Wis so that there's more of a chance of not just failing over and over.

>Travel from the Forgotten Realms into an all-new fey realm

>Journey beyond the Forgotten Realms to the beloved plane of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor

https://www.dndbeyond.com/posts/2069-add-a-delightful-twist-to-forgotten-realms
>While exploring the untamed wilds of the Moonshae Isles, you stumble across a shimmering portal bathed in a sunbeam that filters through the canopy above. On the other side lies Lorwyn

https://5e.tools/book.html#lfl,1,adapting%20species

Lorwyn-Shadowmoor is apparently connected to the Forgotten Realms via the Moonshae Isles. While Lorwyn fairies (faeries) and Lorwyn halflings (kithkin) have no special benefits, Shadowmoor fairies and Shadowmoor halflings have free darkvision 120 feet, so... can we just declare that our fairy and halfling PCs come from Shadowmoor for that free darkvision 120 feet?
>>
>>97029309
>Rimekin just get a cold damage version of Flameblade
As if getting rid of Cinders wasn't already boring enough. Also strictly speaking I thought the deal of Faeries with Lorwyn was that they didn't change between Lorwyn/Shadowmoor, so I'm not sure why that's different.

More broadly though this is something that's becoming more clear about the 2024 rules. All the races are extremely light on features. The changelings have proficiency with Performance and can Dash if they're not surprised on imitative, but the shapeshifting isn't useful as a disguise, since you're just changing your limb configuration.
It's all just really boring and I really don't know why they even bothered.

Not to mention that it seems like really poor design to just have an extra feature with no tradeoffs. If Sunlight Sensitivity were still a thing, that'd make a lot more sense as an addition here, and I'd probably apply it if anyone seriously asked to play a Shadowmoor race.
>>
>>97029392
I think people are just too scared to give their races anything that would be deemed broken and OP or too similar to pre-existing races
>>
>>97029580
>people
That's an official WotC splat that costs $15. If it were some random homebrew I wouldn't care.
>too similar to pre-existing races
90% of what's in that book is pre-existing races or reprints though. The Flamekin is just a Fire Genasi, and the Rimekin just takes that, swaps out Fire resistance for Cold resistance, and has Ray of Frost and Ice Knife instead of Produce Flame and Burning Hands.

Come to think of it, if they were worried about being too powerful, then instead of giving some of the Shadowmoor species free Darkvision, maybe they should have made that the Shadowmoor Origin feat.

One match of Kill Team, Plague Marines vs Ratlings, had to quit in TP3 because the store we play at was closing. My opponent was playing Ratlings for the first time and still getting the hang of them. He ended up having a really good time, I was surprised that his melee specialist in an 11-body team was better at melee than my specialist, but then again I'm not sure if I followed all my rules correctly.

I love Wingspan because whenever people talk about it it sounds like a parody.

>However, the balance of the birds is completely broken. As mentioned there are complete bombs, like Chihuahuan Raven which practically guarantees a victory if you draw them early.
>If you can get Ravens first round, they can be a huge boost, but don't guarantee a winning score. If you can get a raven and a Sandhill Crane or Canadian Goose early you are set. But it doesn't come up often enough to consider it broken.
>I know it sounds a little flippant, but I truly believe that the best strategy in Wingspan is to play tactically rather than strategically. If you're dealt a couple of those migrating birds at the start of the game, build them and use them ... taking care to migrate them to the row you intend to activate next turn.

I mean its half "the creator actually finds these features endearing" (which is why even the big monsters have at least one dopey feature on them) and half "mainstream monsters are so tame, so when you make your own stuff might as well make it only the weird shit you like rather than keep a balance".

They're the same thing. Main Characters are distinct from Callers in how they're self-centered. Whether it becomes a problem just depends on the context of what group they're in and how well their impulses play with everyone else's tolerances and desires.

>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.

You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I feel bad for those guys.

Is there a point to making your RPG system OSR anymore if you want it to be successful? It's a quick and easy way to have a basic framework for your game, and focus on unique mechanics. But it also means people take your game less seriously in terms of its design. So is there a point? Even for a game that has a major OSR mechanic at its core, like gold-for-XP? Such a game would inherently be partially OSR, but for something like an urban decay cyberpunk game that might focus on what is effectively dungeon crawling and wealth-based advancement, or a pirate focused BX clone, is it worth sticking to the BX D&D framework to make a successful system? Example: Shadowdark, which was mostly successful for its marketing, but also because it was OSR D&D and this familiar even to 5e players.
