Better make sure he's got enough bolts in his crossbow.

Or you make Cantrips a thing.

Or better yet, ask yourself what Wizard actually means in your game. Are they the end-all do-all that starts out weak, are they Crowd-control and utility caster focused, or glass cannons?

>>51340508
As long as spells are powerful enough that one of them per day is roughly equal to the stuff non-wizards can do all day long at 1st level. Which is difficult.

Like, if you were making this a mod of 5e, and you take away the wizard's cantrips and only allow one spell per day at 1st level, that spell would probably need to be a 3rd-level spell to be fair. If you only get one per day, it'd better be pretty dramatic.

I think you should try some games that aren't D&D before you even start thinking about making your own RPG.

Is this a CATastrophe thread?

That would actually be legitimately incredibly heartwarming desu

I have a notepad doc with a little catastrophe stuff on it somewhere around here. Let me see if I can dig anything up.

Because people have kneejerk adverse reactions to them, such as accusing them of not belonging in fantasy (ignoring all the classic pulp fantasy stuff which included them) or talking about them being overpowered (due to misunderstanding the mechanics of their original implementation in 3.5)

I love psionics. I think it's a really cool theme that can be interestingly distinct from magic as an alternate way of affecting the world.

Then again, I also love the Tome of Battle/Path of War and supernaturally potent Martial characters without making them explicitly magic, so I tend to be in the minority on those sorts of things compared to the traditionalists.

Playable demihumans were a mistake.

I'm too lazy to watch that video again but I remember that he spoke about unfertile mixed races, right?

I played with the concept once, I had murderous cannibal elves that populated the dense woods of my world. They had basically no sex drive, glowing eyes, and only reproduced for population control, but because they had inferior technology or organisation they got often captured by humans. The elves were often taken as slaves and female elf and male human ofspring were known as mestices, really tall, strong and blonde demi-humans with human eyes, which were prone to lack of humour and odd behavior. They are generally despised, because their behaviour differs from humans.

female human and male elf offspring are exceptionally rare, producing fair skinned and smaller demi-humans with black hair and dark eyes with black sclerae, resembling the eyes of dead elves. Elves don't trust them, because they are known as bringers of death and sickness. Humans despise them, because only a whore and a witch could carry a child of an elf. These half-elves are known as Cambions and are associated with lust, necromancy and devil worship.

picture related, what mestices usually looked like. they were beautiful like their elven parents and muscular, because they were used for hard labour.

New thread repost!

Chummer Build 5.190.0 is now available: https://github.com/chummer5a/chummer5a/releases/tag/5.190.0

This rollup-build is largely bug fixes again, but we have some new UI improvements that I'd like to go through. First off, we've now got a JSON Export option available for career mode characters, accessible through the Export option in the File menu. This allows exporting Chummer's 'print' data to third party services such as Roll20. For further details, please see this link: https://www.reddit.com/r/Shadowrun/comments/5ok5qe/roll20_charactersheet_chummer_import.

We've also made it easier to report issues; if Chummer crashes, you'll see a 'Create New Issue' button. Clicking that link will open our issue tracker in your default browser, with some details pre-filled. As ever, if you have an issue or feature request the easiest way to get it noticed is to raise it as an issue on GitHub (http://issues.chummer.net), but you can also contact us via Slack (https://join.chummer.net) or here, of course. We do appreciate the submission of crash reports via the Crash Handler, but it is substantially easier for the team to collaborate and keep track of Github issues.

As a final note, I've received some complaints lately that quirks in Chummer's behaviour can cause corruption of characters, rendering them unusable. I've not seen this behaviour myself, but I can appreciate the frustration this could cause. If it happens to you, or anyone you're playing with, please contact me directly either here or via [email protected] and I will do the best I can to fix it in a timely manner.

Whats the best way of removing multiple initiative passes?

I was thinking about lumping all their actions into a single round so combat doesnt take so long as multiple rounds of combat with only 1-2 characters actually do anything is tedious

I wish there was more on India besides it got really fucked up by VITAS and a couple hundred people with four arms.

The alcoholic wizard is trying to implode the sun and replace it with the Illuminator of Intoxicating Light. Are you bad enough dudes to stop him from bathing the world in alcoholic light?

>>51328373
>a carpet

Turns out that it's the skin of the world. Replacing it won't be as easy as the King thought, ho ho ho! Shenanigans ensue as the party tries to escape both the angry Royal Guard and a rapidly rolling apocalypse.

Well I'm trying to create a central dynamic between them all.

I also am in the process of adding Gem Dragons.

Wait wait wait... there's anime?

>>51326591
Traditional dragons are boring. I usually don't use them.

Closest I've had in a long time is a giant lungfish that eats people purely for sexual reasons.

Good idea, poor execution,bizarre design decisions.

>>51323338
Could you elaborate, please? I'm trying to get a feel for it, but it's hard to wrap my mind around how the rules will work in practice.

Best current expansion combo for a single campaign?

The Hand just came through and tried to destroy my entire storage. I said I ain't a bitch so I'm resisting, and as I set up these traits, I already want to change my mind. This looks hard as balls. How screwed am I?

Also when it says he destroys all resources in the storage, does that include whatever I got during the hunt? Since archiving resources is technically supposed to be done at the end of the settlement phase, I believe.

>>51281767
The resource chapter in the rulebook clarifies that "settlement storage" is just the archived resources. Recently acquired resources are not entered into storage until step 9 in the settlement phase.

The Hand is the easiest nemesis in the core game -- if you play defensively. Just don't hit him, don't enable his lenses, and wait him out until Applause shows up. Shields are a godsend. Use Rawhide Headband to figure out what attack is coming next and who it is going to hit, to bury the most nasty attacks, and to make Applause happen one turn earlier. Have the target block with their shield, save your survival for Dodges, and just survive.

That said, the worst part about resisting, both for the Hand and the King's Man, is it means that the next time you have to fight them they will be at level 2 and not level 1 because you've already fought the level 1 version. Each time you fight a nemesis its level increases, so... that's bad.

Artifact's edition! If you're an ST, what are some cool artifact's you've made for your game? If you're a player, what artifact does your character use?

I need evocations for a Jade breastplate. I haven't decided on the color yet, but I'm leaning towards green.

>>51278565
Evocations should be tied to the story of the artifact I believe. So anything you can tell us about that?
