Holzschnitt_Sempach.jpg
826KB, 1323x1157px
It is 631 years since the Battle of Sempach, fought between the forces of between the Duke of Austria Leopold III and the Old Swiss Confederacy. The battle was a decisive Swiss victory in which Duke Leopold and numerous Austrian nobles died. The victory helped turn the loosely allied Swiss Confederation into a more unified nation and is seen as a turning point in the growth of Switzerland.

During 1383-1384, the expansion of the Old Swiss Confederacy collided with Austrian interests. In 1385, there were various attacks, without formal declaration of war or central organization, by Confederation forces on several Austrian strongholds.

In January 1386, Lucerne expanded its sphere of influence by entering pacts with a number areas under Austrian control. This move was the immediate cause of war. A local Austrian force defeated the Confederate garrison at Meienberg, and Lucerne called the Confederacies for assistance. An armistice was called, but neither side had any interest in ending the conflict, and instead it escalated into a full-scale military confrontation.

Duke Leopold gathered his troops at Brugg, consisting of his feudal vassals, as well as mercenaries and the bourgeois forces of various towns. In the course of a few weeks, no less than 167 noblemen declared war on the Swiss. These declarations were sent to the Swiss diet in groups. On 24 June, a messenger brought 15 declarations of war. Before all letters had been read, another delivered eight, and before he had finished speaking, yet more were brought in. A further eight messengers arrived on the following day.

The gathering of Austrian forces suggested an intended attack on Zürich, and the Confederate forces moved to protect that city. But Leopold marched south, with the intention of ravaging the Lucerne countryside and perhaps ultimately the city itself. The Austrian army had a troop of mowers with them with the purpose of cutting down the corn and destroying the harvests along their route.

Requesting my Fallout RPG character, an ex-BoS Scribe who took to wandering the Wasteland after losing his Chapter and becoming disillusioned with the Brotherhood.

He's looks scruffy but relatively well-kept, with tanned skin, dark brown hair, and a heavy five o' clock shadow. He also has an old scar on his forehead, above his right eye and cutting through his eyebrow over towards his temple (Unlike Snake, however, he's didn't lose the eye).

His outfit should look mostly like the NCR Ranger Armor in B, except with a completely uncovered head, and the coat made from a set of tattered Brotherhood Scribe Robes (C).

And finally, his weapon is a Ballistic Fist (D) built into his right gauntlet, with a small revolver-style cylinder, chambered with shotgun shells.

Thanks!

Reposting/Bumping this, since it's been a day+ in the old thread(s);
Looking for a half-drow (half-human) gunslinger gal. The gunslinger pictured is for the pose, and the style of duster and placement of gunbelts. One revolver to a hip, and a rifle slung across her back. Looking for colouration, and boots/pants like the drow shown. Perhaps slightly less pointy ears? No hat, and the kind of messy hair pictured to the left. She's a rough-and-tumble sort. A general worn/smudged appearance in general would be good.

Thanks to anyone considering it, and especially for anyone who takes up the request!

Traveller.png

Traveller is a classic science fiction system first released in 1977. In its original release it was a general purpose SF system, but a setting was soon developed called The Third Imperium, based on classic space opera tropes of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, with a slight noir tint.
Though it can support a wide range of game types, the classic campaign involves a group of retired veterans tooling around in a spaceship, taking whatever jobs they can find in a desperate bid to stay in business, a la Firefly or Cowboy Bebop.

So, since the last thread ended on that topic.

Let's assume we have a TL 15 ship that combines mechanical and biologcal parts.

Most of the hull, structure, some sensors and a primitive control system (brain) are biological while things like weapons, drives, other sensors and the power plant are mechanical.

How could this ship protect itself against the temperatur differences existing in space ?
Complex water circulation system in the outer skin ?

Artifical outer skin for heat regulation and armor ?

So D&D cops a lot of criticism, but is there a lightweight trad fantasy alternative that isn't also deeply flawed?

In Order, these are your options:

1. Fuck the incoming Dungeon World post, that's a Pasta so stale it's used as a replacement for wooden dowels.

2. Find an OSR Retroclone that you like, using OSRG.

3. Runequest/Mythras. Not lightweight, but it's definitely worthwhile.

4. Wait until November-December and see if FFG's Genesys is any good.

I fucking love That Guy threads, I don't have a great one but I'll start. Apologies in advance, I'm not the best storyteller but I'll try. Story's also a bit long.

>Be me DM for a homebrew 5e campaign, I'm not a perfect DM but I do my best
>Party is: Illusion Wizard, Grave Domain Cleric, and UA Samurai, all newer players
>Wizard is gf, honestly not very vocal but is great at problem solving and holds her own
>Cleric is the best player, great at RP, interesting backstory, just cool guy
>Samurai started out fine, overdone "master was slain" backstory, can be an ass irl
>How did I not see this coming
>First sessions are going fine, players solving some minor mysteries, foil their first BBEG
>PC's going to big city, run into typical city gang
>Oh shit, Samurai's master was killed by their head honcho, session ends with this information
>Samurai messages me between sessions
>Samurai wanted his "friend" to play, she's never played before
>Red Flag #1
>Invites her to come watch a game and maybe play later if it seems interesting
>Okay sure as long as she doesn't interrupt the game
>In hindsight, should've just said no, this was my mistake
>Next session rolls around, my buddy comes early to make a character, he's kinda gonna just "guest star" in a few sessions
>We all were set to arrive around noon since my buddy works later, should leave plenty of time to play before then
>Pick up gf Wiz who's just a few mins away, Cleric lets me know he's running late, arrives like 15 mins late, no big
>Samurai says he's running late too, stuck at appointment or something, wait one hour... two hours.... play some Magic while we wait
>Decide fuck it, lets do a one shot, I'll just make some bullshit up, players all down
>Right as we start, Samurai walks in without apology for being late as shit
>Red Flag #2
>He didn't bring girl with him at least, fuck yeah
>Let's just get down to it I guess

>Session is going fine, players encounter my buddy's Kenku, he RP's really well, everyone loving it
>PC's find out gang hq is in the sewers
>My original writing at its finest
>It's around this time that my buddy's gotta leave, we started so late because Samurai was 2 and a half hours late
>Pissed at Samurai for being so late, but partially my fault, knew friend might have to leave for work if the session went long
>Players enter sewers, smells like shit, dark as fuck, just what you'd expect
>PC's find portcullis with gang members behind it, let's just open fire
>Say that shots through it will be with disadvantage, reason that shots might hit the metal, same with piercing weapons
>Samurai player starts bitching about it, argues that you can just place your shots/hits better
>I disagree, and it's my call so I keep the ruling, player adds "Okay, I disagree though for the record"
>Red Flag #3
>Wiz, Cleric, and Kenku ranger (which I'm now piloting) just taking shots through this thing, Samurai pissed because he can't really attack since he can't reach
>Comes to Wiz's turn, Samurai tells her OOC she should unlock the thing, she decides to just keep taking shots because it's going well enough
>Actually get's pretty loud, mad she's not doing what he says, I'm kinda pissed that he's ridiculing my gf even though I'd make the same play she did
>Red Flag #4
>Try not to let this cloud my judgement even though he's late to my game, in my house, ridiculing my gf
>Players dispatch with gang members (without opening the portcullis during the fight lul, great encounter planning by me)
>It's around this time that Samurai's "friend" shows up

>They're flirting the whole fucking time but it's getting late and I'm too tired to snap at him
>During a break actually find out she's living with her boyfriend, and Samurai is just waiting around until she breaks up with him to swoop in
>Yes, he brought a girl who's already getting dick to a game she's never played to watch in the hopes that she'll eventually break up with her bf and fuck our Samurai
>Red flag #5
>Finally players find the head honcho, a Banderhobb (just liked the idea of a literally/figuratively slimy mob boss), who personally ate the shit out of Samurai's master
>No talking, be basically fills the room with water and starts fighting them along side more gang members
>Probably a bad decision on my part, didn't give players a chance to confront him, but to be fair they've been killing his men since they got here
>Pretty fun fight actually, people jumping off platforms in this room and slicing dudes, good planning from players
>No mercy just kill Banderhobb, not trying to incapacitate to talk to him (again this might stem from my bad planning)
>Find his treasure, leave sewer, Samurai mad he didn't get closure even though he sliced this guy to bits without hesitation
>Players feel lost as to where to go after, even though I dropped several plot hooks about shit to do in the city
>Decide to end session here, tired as shit
>Contemplate kicking him out if he keeps this shit up

Size and Scale Edition:
Exactly how "Epic" in scope have you gone in a game? Creatures you cant hope to damage without a fleet of ships? Something you must enter the creature and kill it from within? Racing through a fire the size of an entire nation?
