Guess which Craftworld decided to "fracture" and make the focus of the next book. BIEL-TAN.
It makes no sense. If they want to push the doomed narrative they had Ulthwe and Iyanden since both craftworlds are already doomed. But most baffling is that they choose Biel-Tan as the focus of the Ynnead thing when Ulthwe and Iyanden were the main guys behind it. Biel-Tan has nothing to do with that storyline.
Explain it to me, plot progressfags

All the Craftworld Eldar are doomed and they were all in with the Ynnead plot.

What's the last creature your character, not your party, killed ? Can you really say they had it coming ?

A bunch of fish men who were trying to escape with their commander's corpse after failing to set off a WMD in our FOB. It's pretty much Nam so yeah they deserved it.

>What's the last creature your character, not your party, killed ?
One of the party members. I'm the DM.

My DM is cool and let's us use some of the UA. I rolled for stats and got a 3, the rest of my stats are pretty solid. Can I run a Kensei path monk using a greatsword as one of my Kensei weapons? It seems retarded, but if it works RAW then I'm all in. (DM allows unarmed strikes if we have both handsides occupied).

Which Cyberpunk system is better to use /tg/, Cyberpunk 2013, Cyberpunk 2020 or Cyberpunk V3?

2020 is the best. 2013 is mostly the same but more clumsy. V.3 is an abomination based on Fuzion system, which means that it solves no issue from 2020 but created new ones.
>>
There's also Interlock Unlimited. It's a mix between 2013 and 2020. The author carefully selected the worst from both and mixed it together.
>>
Finally, you also have Zaibatsu, which is similar to 2020. System-wise it's on par with 2020, but personally, I find its universe more retro than 2020 despite having been published three years later.

Shouldn't different parts of your body have different ability scores?
Examples:
High cha face / Low cha body
High str arms / Low str legs
High dex dominant hand / Low dex non-dominant hand
High int head / Low int lower torso
etc.

Every fucking time. These stories are never funny because they all rely on someone with either a max Bluff/somethingelse stat or a NAT20 as the punchline. Come up with something original, you actual faggots.

Hey i was wondering if you guys had any advice for dealing with an inventor in a medieval setting?
when this player proposed being an inventor i thought it was cool, he starts pitching these ideas and most of them are ludicrous, things that don't obey physics.
Now in game he's constantly looking to "invent" modern day conveniences to revolutionize the world and crown himself the leader because of his creations.
His first thing he decided to make was a car right away and he maxed out his science skill so he's practically incapable of failing any check.
What do you guys recommend i do about this? i already pulled him aside and told him i don't like whats going on and he made no effort to change, in fact he must have took it as a challenge and started getting even more crazy.
I would prefer not to kick him since he's not really causing any problems with the other players.
is there a handy sheet to deal with inventors/inventions in fantasy settings maybe?

As long as he just makes a motorized carriage and not a full blown mustang then we're good.
>>
>>51357996
Try him for witchcraft.
>>
>>51357996
Inventions depend heavily on existing infrastructure and means of production. He can be Leonardo, but he can't be Henry Ford, because that's not the world he lives in. Having to make each part by hand, having imprecise tools for making measurements, having access to poor-quality metal and probably no rubber, and in any case having no good roads to drive on will all make his ambition essentially impossible no matter how high he rolls.

By actually making it about the zombie apocalypse, rather than the bullshit "nature of man" psychological bullshit that everyone tries to do.
>>
Keep a balance between good and bad.
Zombies are not the only thing out there. They're just the first change in the world. The second change happens and it makes the survivor's lives a bit easier. The third change makes things worse. The fourth makes things a bit better.
Give the players a mystery to follow, to make theories, to experiment.

Be a good GM.

GURPS

>>51357890
Depends on what you want out of the campaign.
Is it a social campaign about slice of life among lowdowns trying to get their Z fix or afford surgeries?
Are you a team of repo's dealing with difficult targets that have enough to pay security but not their transplant bill?
What is it you are looking to do?

>>51357948
I was thinking more along the lines of "illegal black market organ smugglers". Like, people who earn their bread by smuggling designer organs by implanting them inside of themselves.

Well, the Navy's bombardment of the planetary capital has stopped... Suppose that means it's our turn to lead the charge!

Steam Group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/40k_penal_regiment.
FAQ:
>Why don't you guys move to quest?
We're not a quest that's why. Quests are directed by a single GM giving choices to the players, this is completely freeform.
>Then what the fuck is this?
Somewhat of a campaign of crack-infused free-form roleplay set in the grim darkness of the far future.
>When do you guys make these threads?
Usually mondays at 4PM GMT, but they sometimes extend to Tuesdays if we got caught in the middle of something when the thread died and it was too late to make another one the same day.
>Can I join in?
Sure, just think of a character and have fun, you can find most info in 1d4chan albeit it's ussually a little bit out of date in comparison to where the threads are.
>Is there any requirement in character creation.
Not really, we've had Xeno infiltrators, Chaos infiltrators, Villains, Heroes, Normal Guardsmen, Crazed Guardsmen, Assassins, Psykers, Space Marines, Inquisitors, Squats... just think whathever and join the fun.
>Is it allowed to have more than a single character?
Yes as long as you don't use it to powerplay.
>So how you guys do the playan'?
We tend to use spoilers for OOC chat, but nothing is set in stone.
We tend to use greentexts for describing a character's actions, but again nothing is set in stone.
Use d20s for combat checks and d100s for other things you want to roll, higher Is better.
It's important to know that the regiment is now in the employ of a radical Ordo Xenos Inquisitor, with influence from an Ordo Malleus Inquisitor and under the watch of an Ordo Hereticus Inquisitor. Yes we've been through a lot of shit.

Kill him. If you are letting a chaotic evil person stay in your party, you should either fall because of your ineptitude to defeat someone who is evil or purge him from existence. This isn't hard desu.

I have considered killing him because of how he doesn't listen to anything anyone else says. Usually though I try to have him run in first to places to check it out since he's so dumb and willing to do it.

How the fuck do I encourage my players to be creative? Every time I give them time to RP, or plan, or do anything creative they just sit there like lemons.

Its great from a planning perspective, because I know exactly what these chucklefucks are going to be doing at any given moment, but I don't know, sometimes I just want to be surprised, you know?

Find them a setting or a style of play that actually suits them rather than doing whatever you are now.
Once they're invested in the campaign they'll start being more creative.
>>
>>51357717
Sounds like my group, it's depressing they all went for max damage builds and can't be bothered with anything that isn't just combat, even preparing for combat is too much downtime.
>>
>>51357717
You're not pfoviding them with any things that could be prepared, expecting them to figure something out on their own in the empty void that is your game.
If they actually liked your game, they would at least be trying their best.Also, even if they say they like it, they're probably lying to not hurt your feelings if that's how they act in game.
