Why haven't you offered to become a Game Master Betrothed yet, /pfg/?

This is 3.5 nostalgia general now.

My first character in any RPG was a 3.5 assassin, and the edgiest character I've ever made. I'm fairly certain I said "It's nothing personal, it's just business," while playing him.

After centuries of antagonizing every neighbor on their borders and a few civil wars they're still standing and their Secret Agents are almost never seen.

Someone is keeping their shit running, pretty sure it's a god tier Secret Service.

Best. They never defect, they die with honor before getting captured, and they have no compunctions about doing what needs doing.

Starfleet doesn't have Section 31. It has Starfleet Intelligence. Section 31 is an extra-governmental, extra-legal conspiracy and terrorist organization.

When my group made the mistake of playing 4e we at one point found out a local senator was being impersonated by a Changeling. So we captured him to interrogate him. But, rather than let him even try to resist, our shitass Warforged Barbarian decided to fist his asshole. He shapeshifted into a larger form, so more fisting was applied. And then another fist. And then our shitass Dwarf Wizard decided to help out by wrapping barbed wire around the barbarian's arms, and the DM said that the Changeling just fucking died and we didn't get any information out of him.

Im Thinking of starting my players off as slaves in a frontier town or laborers in a prison.
as slaves they will be bought and during transport a raid will leave them with freedom and some guns
as prisoners they will have more time to grow and train as they must in order to escape so there's that as well

I'd been thinking of running a Fallout game for a long while, and I figured I would run it with GURPS. Just the Basic Set and After the End supplement in heavy use. The supplement handy because it offers tips for streamlining combat so it's not a rollplaying game or a tactician simulator, as well as gives a more gamey set of rules for handling radiation, dealing with scavenging, hunting, and gathering, etc. It also has a bunch of templates so that making a campaign-relevant character is easy (because missing the Survival skill is pretty shitty).

I've thought about sprinkling some of the rules from Social Engineering, a book focused on rules for social encounters, seeing as Fallout is focused on that sort of thing. However that would be up to my player's actions: they could all want to play mercs for all I know.

The players will start in Arizona and the game will take place four years after Fallout New Vegas under the assumption that the NCR has taken control over the Hoover Dam and have continued to beat down the Legion into Arizona and beyond. I already have a map of the area the players will be in, some settlements jotted down and an idea of what the players will do for their first adventure. I just need fine details where they matter.

If you are playing in person, at a table with friends, I strongly recommend doing yourselves. Set it in your town, or a nearby city that you all know.

>Bring out actual maps, draw on them
>Count supplies, make it worthwhile
>Use yourselves as characters
>You shoot guns? So does your character
>You have some useless skills? So does your character

It makes it real, engaging and engrossing and above all believable. Which is what you hope for in a post-apoc game. Depending on the system you use you grow, somewhat organically in characters you hope to be.

The SCS was made as an addon to the CYOA to cover the combat side of roleplaying. It allows players to easily take characters made in the CYOA v1.5 and use them in Quests and long-running campaigns alike. Note that this system DOES require you to have a character made in the CYOA in the OP first.

This PDF covers the core rules of gameplay, as well as the methods of improvement and various spells and items magical girls use.

These expansions include
>Order & Chaos; Friend & Foe (OC&FF): Details on the mechanical workings of Patrons, Dark Magical Girls, Monster Girls (both natural and corrupted), and also includes a bestiary
>Worlds & Wishes (W&W): Details various GM tools and a few player tools, including the function of Mundane weapons, Alternate/Optional Rules, Various tips and tricks for GMing and Roleplaying, as well as Augments for players looking for a little extra power after CharGen. It also includes the conversion process for AMGC characters into the SCS.

FUCK HASHUT

PRAISE THE ONE TRUE BULLGOD

"As the Code is the basis of all Kharadron society, we also used it as the basis of their traits. Instead of getting a single trait like most other factions, you choose your army's interpretation of the Kharadron code from a trio of lists -giving you an Article, an Amendment and a Footnote-, which allows you to interpret the Code to your preferences. But if you want to theme your army around one of the major skyports, we created bespoke rules for them. To make up for their loss of flexibility of choosing your own interpretations, you get a small bonus -such as the traditionalists of Barak-Thryng being allowed a special artefact named the Grudgehammer, or the peerless aeronauts of Barak-Zilfin gaining bonuses to their skyvessels."

Customizable army-wide rules? This is just getting better and better!

Ask them to itemize the magical materials they've used in the last adventure, with appropriate supporting documentation in things like purchase receipts.

Keep sending it back for not keeping track of all those bits of bat guano or other tiny things that are just considered part of the spell and you don't keep track of in the ordinary course of business.

Ask what sorts of things they've been paid with in their last few adventures, and their equivalent gold piece (or whatever appropriate currency in setting), but then refuse to believe their numbers because they're just made up by a bunch of murderhobos.

That's amazing

What Lords of War do you take, besides Knights and Primarchs? Personally I don't really run any, because I always feel I can get better value from stuff like Macrocarids and Vindicators, but I kind of want a big scary thing as I move up to 3k.

One of the main issues is that UB is a color "allied pair" but have no shared mechanics except one garbage one and no real actual pie overlap in terms of design space. It's why the pair doesn't even have an evergreen keyword to share yet. So designing a wedge with two colors that have nothing they can really lend each other and tacking on a third color that has strong ties with one thematically (B) but weak ties with the other (U) is just asking for a mess. Simic mechanics have always been garbage, and while Transmute was pretty okay, Cipher was a shitpile, and Transmute is honestly more blue than black, so it was a similar stretch to Extort being in white.

BUG is just a fucked wedge until WotC does some in-house re-arranging of things and spreads the color pie a bit more evenly. UB just don't share enough design space together to pull off anything interesting aside from gold cards that mash their best individual mechanics together.

>>52478511
Evolve works as a monogreen mechanic. They need something that ties in blue counter/spell/flying theme more. Graft worked fairly well because you could share abilities.

What do you think would work in terms of mechanics that combine UB or BUG?
Alternatively, why not just bugs?

>>52478528
Yeah Evolve was fine as a green thing, that's true. I meant it was garbage for UG, sorry. I realize that the guilds are all supposed to have their own "identities" that take influence from their constituent colors but are unique, but several guild mechanics are simply out of color for one of them.

The big issue is that, as pairs, mechanically, UB and GU share jack and shit besides GU getting Flash and Hexproof as shared keywords. BG have all kinds of great shit they can do as a pair though, with graveyard and "feeding" (Sengir Vamp ability), so you'd probably want to start there, but U gets little graveyard stuff, so I think that's why they went with Delve, because it was something they could actually do together, since blue's graveyard mechanical access is limited. Extort was a BG mechanic, and could have had a home in R too, but not U. I feel like some kind of "deception" mechanic would work, but I have never been very good at coming up with keywords. "Cunning" or something... possibly caring about the number of cards in your hand, or comparing that number to each of your opponents, since they all prioritize card draw in their own way, and value the trait of cunning?
