Not GURPS. Unless you are mentally damaged. Then I'm sorry for you.

You and your party get into the bath. The water is clear and relaxing. Suddenly, bath piranhas appear. What do?

Eels

1) The water is actually acid
2) The water is actually a slime goddess
3) ???

It's simple realization on both the state of things and the fact that it would not be a satisfactory product to anyone. Rather than complain, it's best to do what's needed and move on to products that will provide something of value.

No more, no less.

I don't think Val's ever done an item stipend, and I don't think your whining about not being able to purchase anything will change that.

Ugh, god no. Despise the very concept. Zero justification for it too.

Don't be silly with exaggerations either. You can get plenty with 1000cp, much less 2000cp. You're not getting everything but you're not meant to either.

"Are there any mages?"

>>51890773
Introduce them to mind altering substances, turn them into cultists, summon their unholy masters.

Because you don't need that kind of granularity when it comes to a game. You need clear, concise results.

>>51883910
The game is slow enough without using a microscope and a spirit level to read the numbers.

>>51883910
I'd rather use real dice. They're fun to roll. Also, most people don't think a <1% change in probabilities is an interesting change.

Well video games have been around for over 30 years and RPGs are still around so no

Not until the day a GM can have his players all jack in to his custom campaign software and he can micromanage accordingly with them experiencing every sense in VR, no.

Normal doggos have a pretty consistent proportion of squishy and hard, but this doggo looks like it has all its squishy in one place, and all its hard in another.

Not OP, but its pretty damn good. Like Castlevania is set in the 18thC.

So whats better: an original fantasy world based loosely on IRL 18thC, or straightup real world with fantasy elements?

Okay new thread let's not have it die without a single comment so here's a short snippet from my last session.

My group is still relatively new, most of the player quirks are now known, but I'm still throwing in the occasional personal stuff at the PCs. The latest (and most amazing) end result of this was me throwing a former neighbor asks the ex-soldier to help get this son straight. I intended it to be a ministory involving gangs and stuff but the player delivered a pretty good speech to said kid about how he's going to get his shit together or else.

Since I was kindof thinking that that player was a bit of a murderhobo this result was pretty astonishing and amazing.

19th February in military history:

1649 – The Second Battle of Guararapes takes place, effectively ending Dutch colonization efforts in Brazil.

It is 1820 years since the Battle of Lugdunum, also called the Battle of Lyon, fought at Lugdunum (modern Lyon, France), between the armies of the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus and of the Roman usurper Clodius Albinus. Severus' victory finally established him as the sole emperor of the Roman Empire. This battle is said to be the largest, most hard fought and bloodiest of all clashes between Roman forces. The historian Cassius Dio places the number involved as 300,000, or 150,000 on either side of the battle. This figure has been disputed, as this is approximately three-quarters of the total number of soldiers present throughout the Roman Empire at that time. However, it is widely accepted that the total number of soldiers and support personnel involved exceeded 100,000, and could well have come close to half the 300,000 figure Dio gives.

After the murder of Emperor Pertinax (193), a struggle had begun for the succession to the throne, the so-called Year of the Five Emperors. The new self-proclaimed Emperor in Rome, Didius Julianus, had to face the commander of the Pannonian legions, Septimius Severus. Before moving on Rome, Severus made an alliance with the powerful commander of the legions in Britannia, Clodius Albinus, recognizing him as Caesar. After eliminating Didius (193) and then defeating the governor of Syria, Pescennius Niger (194), Severus launched a successful campaign in the East in 195. Severus then tried to legitimize his power, connecting himself with Marcus Aurelius, and raising his own son to the rank of Caesar. This last act broke Severus' alliance with Albinus, who was declared a public enemy by the Senate. In 196, after being hailed as emperor by his troops, Clodius Albinus took 40,000 men in three legions from Britannia to Gaul. After gathering up additional forces, he set up headquarters at Lugdunum. He was joined there by Lucius Novius Rufus, the governor of Hispania Tarraconensis, and by the Legio VII Gemina under his command.

But seriously, the Diamond has a huge lead, followed by the PHR BBs. I can't say a whole lot about UCM or Scourge, but my UCM buddy complains about the BB laser taking up too much of the profile value on a ship that wants to go Weapons Free.

Always bump with CONTENT dude, otherwise you're just being desperate.

So I my newest game, it's the Firefly 'Verse

To accommodate the in universe wealth disparity, I'm using a modified version of the After the End rules. Everything has the same costs up to TL6, then there's a flat doubling of gurp$ per TL increase.
This ensures the highest tech is quite valuable, while encouraging smart use of lower tech.

As well, the players (especially one) are keen on seeing space guns that look like the old ones, much like how in the show there were real world props about. The modifier I cooked up for that is
>Push TL up 2, to a maximum of 10
>Add an armor divisor (2)
>Drop damage type a step on the Pi scale
>Add a battery
>Quadruple ammo capacity in the mag/drum (representing Gauss stacks)
>Add smart electronics if they were absent (basic set bonuses, +1 to most things)

Thoughts?

>>51802867
Sounds about right, though it's been a while since I was a browncoat. You using LC to manipulate the prices too?

How's ship building working for you?
