Is there a glut of streaming D&D and other Table Top Role Playing games online now or is it just beginning?
Wizards of the Coast is about to do some mega stream with a bunch of streamer groups called the Stream of Annihilation, where they also plan to announce what the next adventure hardcover they'll be releasing is, but its just a weekend long thing being done in June.
Do you guys want to see more proliferation of RPG streaming for other games via video or podcast?
What games do you think really deserve a stream that gets promoted enough or is good enough to garner some popularity or attention?
Is this but a passing fad?
Discuss, if you are so inclined.

I find I don't like the "high production value" ones. They always use the video mostly for facecams, which I'm not interest in and rarely show a map. And the tone and setting are largely too comedic, which makes it less engaging. I enjoy the low profile groups more, if the recording quality is watchable. Most systems that are not D&D could use more content.

Got a link to any of those? I've yet to find a RPG channel outside the big name ones that had mic quality above "2009 Xbox live"

>>53274356
I don't know how Xboxs live sounds, I can only say that I can tolerate the audio, though quality varies.

I keep hearing talk of this errata but I'm not sure where its being talked about, other than here of course, or even what exactly is being changed.
Anyone mind refreshing me on the specifics other than "just using boosts on full attack maneuvers"
>>
>>53273437
SOME stances and boosts are being changed such that they only affect the first attack, not all attacks
Primal Fury and Broken Blade received COMPLETE REWRITES.
Scarlet Throne is eating some zenith-strike related nerfs.
thats it.

I mean, Adrian makes a lot of sense to be there. He's from the city that the boat set out from, and is a language professor. One of the expedition's missions is to study the languages in Mwagni. He's also, from his character out, not very visually distinct.
Out of everyone Adrian on the surface has one of the most mundane reasons to be on the boat.

>"New technology flies in the face of the themes of the setting!"
Reminder that the Adeptus Mechanicus has been actively developing new marks of power armour since the start of the Great Crusade, because Aquilla and Errant sure as shit didn't come out of nowhere.
Also reminder that they have been actively attempting to purify and modify various geneseeds as the foundings progressed.

Hey /tg/, I've had some ideas towards designing a new tabletop system as a side project for myself.
I was wondering if anyone had any advice on what areas to start in because I don't know whether to start with the mechanics side, the numbers side for HP/damage or classes etc. If someone here has any experience then advice on the process would be appreciated.
I don't post on /tg/ really so bear with me.

First off, what's your premise?
Second off, do you want the rules to be concrete or abstract?
Finally, do you want the rules to be simple or complex?
Once you've answered these questions, start off with considering the best rolling method for resolving outcomes for that premise and then start adding rules to facilitate the sort of premise you want to create.
>>
>>53272158
>whether to start with the mechanics side, the numbers side for HP/damage or classes
The fact that you view those as separate sides and can't even tell which one has to logically come first spells almost certain doom for your project.
But let's try anyway.
The very first thing you need is an idea.
What is your idea?
Side note: If you cannot describe your idea without directly or indirectly referencing D&D, drop what you're doing, play a couple of different RPGs (No, Pathfinder does not count.) and then come back.
>>
>>53272158
Well a good place to start would be sharing those ideas, I suppose.

Because the guys in charge of 5e are insane, they've decided to let YOU decide what the next 5e book is going to be. They're even letting you be in charge of it from start to finish, because you're probably just as good as anyone else, who knows, who cares, not them.
Here's a list of the current non-adventure 5e books.
Players Handbook
Monster Manual
Dungeon Master's Guide
Sword Coast Adventurer’s Guide
Volo’s Guide to Monsters

Rookie DM here, been playing about 5 months. This is my third time DM'ing a campaign.
>spend hours of my week planning interesting encounters, characters, quests
>draw out cool, interactive battle maps
>Everything seems awesome in my head
>Absolutely fail at delivery in-game
How do I get better? I'm awkward when speaking for NPCs and sometimes can't think of anything good when forced to improvise. My players seem to be enjoying it but I know it's nothing amazing.

I actually just picked up this tip a few weeks ago;
Put essential info of each character onto index cards; like saves, HP (So you know when you might wanna pull a punch), etc.
Then, rearrange those for initiative. Helps everything go much faster.
Also, practice. Seriously. The more the better.
>>
>>53271223
It is vastly less important to speak in-character as an NPC than it is to communicate clearly. So honestly toss that sacred cow on the fire-- if you feel awkward and unimaginative when inhabiting an NPC's voice, ditch the voice and use exposition.
And practice out of the game. Find an improv group, have conversations with yourself in the car, that sorta thing. You will seem like a crazy person and it absotively will help.
Also.
>My players seem to be enjoying it
Stop right there. You're doing a good job. Anyone can always do a better job, but if they're enjoying it you're doing something right. Remember that. Hold onto that. Your game will never be as cool as it is in your head but that doesn't mean you aren't giving joy to your players.
>>
well I'm not sure how in depth you plan but i always plan out a main route, and do a thin outline of other possible routes i can think of. but sometimes the players take an unforeseen route which leads you to have ti improv, sometimes you can route them back onto your main path if it was thin enough.
i would personally love to steal some of those battle maps? I'm a terrible artist.
in game delivery, what holding you up? is it Dialogue? Combat? Quests?
i was very bad at NPC's and improv when i started out too, it takes quite awhile, what helped me the most was constantly saying that it wasn't good enough, no matter how much fun the players had. i wanted to keep going until it was as good as i could possibly get it, 3 years later I'm super happy and the players say the game spectacular.
for the NPC's just commit to a single personality if theyre a side character it makes it a lot easier to just respond and guide the players if all they have is 1 basic trait and a funny accent. sometimes you dont need an accent especially if you're not comfortable with voices yet.
that being said i always say no matter how bad you sound always commit to the character, you'll become more comfortable and after the first few times everyone will be used to voices. its only awkward and funny at first.
improv, that something you can improve with practice or taking a short class, thats always helpful.
my final tip of advice, never let it get to you, as long as everyone is having fun then just keep telling yourself that you're gonna get better. it only becomes more fun to GM when you get better.

Just wanted to share with you the stupidest /tg/-related conversation I've ever had
>what are you doing, anon?
I want to make a detective themed superhero for this M&M campaign I'll be playing soon, but I don't want him to be a Batman clone, any ideas?
>A guy who transforms into a building
Into a building?
>Yeah
A specific building? Like a hospital or something like that?
>No, it's more like that room in Harry Potter that has whatever you need at that moment
So a guy who transforms into a building that has useful things?
>No, no, no. he transforms into a building that the person whom you're spying wants to go to at that time
I don't think I'm following you here
>Yeah, like, you want to spy on this guy, and he's going to his mother's house so you transform into his mother's house and he goes into you instead
But he knows where that house is, why would he just enter a random building in the middle of the street that looks the same? If anything he'd be weirded out but that's about it
>Not if it's an emergency! What if his mother's dying?
I don't even have words to explain how stupid that is. What if there's more than one person?
>Well, they suddenly all want to go to the same place
Isn't it just easier to say that I mind control them into going inside the building?
>No, that's not the same, they just really want to go
And what about passing onlookers? What about traffic? A new building appearing out of thin air would attract a lot of innocent people
>he's invisible. To others. They can't see him
They can touch him, though
>Well, uh, they'll just assume something's off and continue with their lives, I guess
Look, there's far too many holes in this whole idea, I don't even think you understand what you're saying.
>It'll work!
Okay, let's say it somehow works and now I have three guys inside of me, and I'm a building, what now?
>You close the doors and keep them inside until they die of hunger
This is a superhero story, people break buildings on a daily basis

(2/2)
>Well, you're just a very solid building then
That's not the only problem here. Why would I even want to do that? If I'm spying on someone I don't want to kill that person before getting some info, if at all
>While they're inside you just interrogate them and they have to answer if they want to get out, or you can just eat them
That's still stupid in a game where I can mind control people, also you're somehow fixated in the idea that everything a detective wants to do is spy on people, what if I'm inside a building getting some clues? I'm useless
>You can transform and destroy everything around you
I'm a DETECTIVE, I'm trying to stealthily find information, not destroy a fucking building!
>But they'll never find you, you transform into the building you just destroyed and they won't suspect a thing
They won't suspect a thing after hearing a thunderous noise and finding all the debris laying around?
>Yeah
You wouldn't suspect a thing if that happened?
>Nu-uh
I feel like I'm gonna regret asking this, but what's his supperhero name?
>Atticus

Why can't people accept that Space Marines could get upgrades?
Considering the fact that the Imperium was always fucked from the get go no matter what, literally, every story would end with them either winning or losing but still fucked
It's a miracle and funny they managed to survive this long with what they had.
Now the galaxy is literally being raped, Deamon Primarchs are returning, Tyranids are still a thing, orks are still happily murdering shit, and Abby Dabby is on a warpath to Terra while worlds burn and fall everywhere on A million different fronts
If they were to even survive this at the point where they stand it'd be on the level of HFY meme garbage
The Imperium NEEDS new toys and bodies. Especially with Cadia dead and choas partying like it's 007.M31

Because they got them before Chaos did... you know, the guys who've got no fucking problem with trying to upgrade, mutate or generally do whatever the fuck they can to get an edge on Chaos. Hell there was even all that stuff with Bile's Tartas or whatever to justify it.
But no instead the loyalists have to get it, because loyalists sell. What's that? The Imperium as paranoid as fuck about technology advancing? LOLNO! SUPER-SUPER-MARINES FOR EVERYONE!

Most people seem positive about it. In fact the reaction to this vs. the reaction to Age of Sigmar is kinda interesting.
