8th confirmed for worst edition yet. At least I reckon I can get a pretty penny for the roughly 25,000 points of models I have.

People are going to storm in here accusing you of being a salty grognard/powergamer, but you're absolutely right. 8th is dull as ditchwater now. Even if the Codexes have more complex rules, it won't be enough to salvage how brutally the core mechanics were gutted.

Don't forget GW said they're too lazy to bother keeping track of anything and now, in addition to their already inconsistent fluff, they're now not even going to bother with timelines.

Hello dear drawfriends,
I would like to humbly request my character for a friend's homemade mid-low fantasy setting/system.
LOOKS:
>Young thin man with a poor posture, a kinda feminine heart-shaped face, curious eyes and a general "lovable dork" look around him
>Black hair, blue eyes, 177cm/5'10" height
>Wields a staff with a small deep blue crystal affixed to its top
>Wears a leather mid-thigh long (armour) jacket that could be reinforced with hard leather (kinda like the cyber goth garment depicted, the plates should be not too big). Alternatively, he may be wearing not too elaborate noble's clothes
>Further visible equipment could contain a plain sword, a crossbow or a hand crossbow.
——————————————
STORY/PERSONALITY (in case you are interested in stuff like this
>third son of a minor but well settled noble
>showed no aptitude for military, but was instead always interested in legends and history and so he went out to the world to collect legends of peoples elsewhere and got swept up in the story.
>recently discovered how to do magic and embraces it enthusiastically, even if he is capable of only few tricks yet. >huge nerd and somewhat naive, even if his study of history and his experiences cause him to mature.
If you want to know more for some reason, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you very much in advance for considering my request.

This is a thread for discussing Wild Talents, Monsters and Other Childish Things, Reign and any other games built on Greg Stolze's One Roll Engine.
>***The System
Roll some d10s. Find matches. The number of matching dice is your Width. The number ON the dice is your Height. So a Set of [5,5,5] has a Width of 3 and a Height of 5, written as 3x5. That's it. Width and Height tell you a lot about your action, such as how fast it was, how strong it was, how precise it was, etc. Everything in the system is built around this fast, simple mechanic.
>***The Games
>Nemesis
A game about cosmic horror using the Madness system invented and popularized by Unknown Armies. It's available for free on ArcDream's website here: http://www.arcdream.com/pdf/Nemesis.pdf
>Godlike
Superhero roleplaying during World War II. Fight supersonic Nazis and invisible French knife maniacs in a brutal setting where you're equally likely to be killed by a mortar blast as from a supervillain.
>Wild Talents
The sequel to Godlike, blowing the doors of the system to let you create any superpower you can imagine. /tg's favorite ORE game.
>Monsters and Other Childish Things
You're a kid with an imaginary monster friend who's real, and you have adventures. Converts nicely to Jojo and Persona.
>Reign
High fantasy roleplaying in a crazy world that would need to have an entire post just about it.
>A Dirty World
Noir at its best. Relentlessly focused on character growth and psychology. A much lighter system than the others.
>Better Angels
You're a supervillain whose power comes from a contract with a demon. Try not to get dragged to hell.

-Playtesting for The Velvet Book
-Power building for Wild Talents
-More ORE homebrew (Nasuverse, Resident Evil...)
Here's the current draft of The Velvet Book. It's been updated as of today with some new rules including:
>3d Personas
In our playtesting we've found that the default dice pools from MaOCT aren't always compatible with the playstyle of Persona, so we have added rules for playing with lower-power Personas.
>Element Scanning
Rules for detecting weaknesses and resistances have been added to the Combat rules
>All-Out Attacks
All Out Attack rules have been modified to ensure that they are more rewarding to execute.
>Starting Relationships
Some brief rules have been added to cover how GMs should handle players starting with no Relationships (as is typical for Persona) as opposed to a fully fleshes out social matrix (as is standard for MaOCT).
One of our playtesting groups completed their first "Palace" run through and collected a lot of valuable information concerning combat that is being processed right now. If anyone else is interested in playing or, as importantly, signing up to GM, please join the discord linked in the OP.
Here are the current Character and Persona Sheets. I'm not especially happy with the Persona Sheet so I'm going to revise that this week to something a bit more...interesting to look at and use. But it should work for the time being!
Just reaching out to people who posted in prior threads, specifically:
--The guy who wanted to try and adapt Nemesis for Resident Evil (an amazing idea)
--GM and Players of the MaOCT game set in a catholic school where everyone's monsters are based on horror movies
--I know a couple anons posted about running their own Persona games apart from the Velvet Book discord. Any updates on those?
--How are your games in general going?

Inevitable outside non-standard formats - i.e.: cache refresh, 1.1.1.1, campaigns etc.
>>54237156
Cache refresh does follow the MWL but onesies and campaign doesn't.
I was more asking about casual games outside a tournament or league, if following the MWL is necessary to balance cards that otherwise can make decks not fun
>>54237279
I'd say only if you know there's some unfun combos that you've got - Sensie is pretty bullshit, for example, as is Parasifr Faust

What do you think about the current crop of games, anons?
If every character your friend makes is a severe woobie, what does that say about them?
>>54410325
What's a woobie
Whilst D&D is best known for the "Tolkienian" races - Dwarf, Elf, Halfling, Gnome, Half-Elf and Half-Orc - these re far from the only races that've been playable throughout D&D's history. I'm curious to know if any anons out there actually enjoy any of the races that fall outside of the traditional group.

Genius is pretty great. If only people would stop trying to run it as a crossover game and let it be its own thing.
I need some advice to run a antagonist thats sexy without going into magical realm mode.
>>54402292
Beats me. I think getting a character across as beautiful without coming off as forced and or weird is kind of a huge hurdle in terms of non-visual mediums
I would play them as provocative, flirty, all that jazz without forgetting to make them appear antagonistic. Why are they provocative, are they manipulative, what are they trying to get out of showing off? Play antagonists as antagonists, the rest is just characterization. Don't make their sexiness a positive point and the magical realm won't be an issue.
I think.
>>54402292
Make them physically attractive, but give them an extremely off putting kink. Like they are a hard core sadist, who is actively getting off to kicking the party's shit in.
Or you know, just describe their normal debauchery as vaugly as you can and let the players fill in the blanks
Does this trigger you /tg/? If so, why?
>>54398578
Why is platinum the only one with a different design?
>>54398578
Should it? That seems pretty normal for a moon fantasy currency system.
>>54398607
Differentiate it a bit more from silver and to denote that it is the highest value coin?
There's humans, fair enough. Some people just want to play as themselves.
Then there's thin humans with pointy ears. They seem superfluous.
Then there's short, heavyset humans with beards. They also seem superfluous.
Then there's even shorter humans.
Then there's similarly short humans with a penchant for being annoying and causing explosions.
Then there's ugly humans with greenish skin.
Why not have the choice be between humans and races that are more distinct?
>>54396788
Look at this picture right there and answer me why shouldn't people who play gnomes be treated as subhuman
As a general rule, humans are terrible at roleplaying things that are too far removed from the human condition.
In practice, when playing a weird race, what you'll end up with is playing a weirdly shaped human, whom the GM will occasionally have to remind of whatever limitations were dreamed up for the race.
>>54396809
Because nobody plays gnomes, so the category would be meaningless.
