Feels pretty okay. Not particularly good or bad, but okay.

That's a pretty good feel, actually.

not really
Surprise, anon. That 5 hour first session we had planned? Well, it's actually going to be a 4 hours and 40 minutes session, because your lazy ass is writing a 4 sentence backstory right now.
I'll start:
From Daguin's own mouth, he only really started living when he joined the holy order as a monk.
Under the tutelage of masters such as St. Lange and St. Beins, he quickly grew in knowledge and ability, and impressed his instructors with his seemingly unbreakable faith.
Once his training was over, he returned to his home town and its monastery, where he was not taken seriously by those who had been there much longer than he.
The constant ridicule and the lowly and dirty tasks he was given ground at his sanity until, provoked by a reprimand by the high Abbot, he took a knife to the man, who, rather than complain of his wound, sent Daguin away to seek penance and grow wiser in pilgrimage.
I can taste salt in every word.
Ok, FINE! if that is how you work, then shit...
>He's a knight.
>He fights evil.
>He defends the weak.
>He is a male.
There... 4 sentences, now shut up and play!
>>53461124
None of that tells anything of what he is. You're basically just repeating shit we can all already read on his character sheet.
Give us four equally short sentences that aren't just his class, alignment, what the class does, or gender.
GW writer has sadly passed away. He was the lead writer on the recent FW Horus Heresy stuff.
Now begins the slow death spiral of the HH line.

Ahoy land lubbers, I need me pictures of pirates, rascals, scoundrels, villains and knaves,devils and black sheep and really bad eggs.
Also, feel free to discuss Pirates and they related to RPGs and Tabletop games, like what's the best way to build a pirate in DnD 5th Ed.

Match 3 is about to start. Ke Jie, the world #1 player is currently 0-2 for the set. This may be the last chance humanity has to best an AI before it is completely out of reach. It may already be too late. Get the fuck in here.
I, for one, welcome our new machine overlords.

Say I play Rishkar's Expertise and I have a card in hand with X cost and I play it for free, is X zero?
>>53444383
It is. When you're casting an X spell for an alternate cost, and that cost doesn't define X (for example, the Flashback for Increasing Confusion DOES define X), then X must be 0.
>>53444383
Not him, but yes.
Also you can abuse nocost cards with suspend with any of the expertise cards.

This is a thread for discussing challenges and experiences related to running or playing in modern settings games.
Here is a problem I am currently having.
How do I select good settings for villains to conduct deals and get caught or ambushed by parties in modern foreign countries?
The biggest problems I'm having are finding urban locations where there aren't tons of civilians and working out what are places where modern criminals and villains would prefer to do deals and exchanges.
I have been using maps so far. So any tips on mapping places would be appreciated and advice on how to transition from mapped areas to high speed chases.
>>53438338
>How do I select good settings for villains to conduct deals and get caught or ambushed by parties in modern foreign countries?
Watch that one Nicholas Cage move. Lord of War, I think. Lots of good settings there.
>The biggest problems I'm having are finding urban locations where there aren't tons of civilians and working out what are places where modern criminals and villains would prefer to do deals and exchanges.
Modern criminals are everywhere, but not everywhere in a city is populated. There are many abandoned buildings and bad parts of towns, and plenty of business sectors where people don't go after dark, like the docks.
Not really sure on the last one. Chases are usually descriptive, not something that takes place on a map, at least in my experience.
>>53438409
Got any other movie suggstions? The only Nicholas Cage movie I have at the moment is The Rock.
so like a rental storage unit place or laundromat?
Do big modern cities have "docks" anymore? I thought they all got gentrified or torn down with the advent of modern megaports.
>>53438338
It all really depends on how "realistic" you make the setting. I'm currently running a contemporary-fantasy setting in a strangereal-esque universe, so in my experience I have more leeway to do things that wouldn't fly in any modern country. Of course for a realistic modern setting you could use parts of town no one goes (like abandoned factories) for games set in a city or literally anywhere in a game that's set in a shithole nation.

I love seeing Wizards' pushed vision crumbling to dust all around them, all because they decided to stick their dick in the way things have worked for decades.
Instead of banning stuff, how about printing actual answers? Rest in Peace and Pithing Needle have been in the same set before. Do it again.

Zombies seem pretty capable of beating it. Losing 2 permanents isn't game over when you have 8 zombies on board and only need 2 mana to play your deck out.

Tech Edition
We all know that tech gets shafted right now, from high ESS cost, to high price for Ware and Decks, to high Availability.
What do you do to help those guys?
Lower deck and ware prices?
Extra ESS for mundanes?
Something else?

Use background counts.

that would be nerfing awakened, which is also useful to close the gap between them
But what do you do to buff the mundanes?

>They know they have to fin their way upward, and they know they have to stick together.
>What they don't know is just how far down they really are, or what is down there with them.
What do your PCs find beneath the city streets, in the secret places deep underground?

Just do every entry dungeon ever and put some ol' fantasy big rats.
