I'd very much agree! I think it depends on the group, and I think it's possible to implement without tiresome bookkeeping but very often it can just be tiresome bookkeeping.

I think one of the ways to look at it (as a DM) is: what do you want from the game by including this? Are you looking for that moment when the PCs make desperate decisions low on supplies? Do you want it as a general more 'realistic' element to get the PCs involved? Or do you want it to boost supplemental skills narratively and mechanically, like you've pointed out?

Once you know what you want from it, I think you can decide whether or not it's gonna benefit your individual game.

Pic also unrelated.

I always like to have an eye on logistics, it does so much for immersion. For me it just comes with playing a character naturally.

That's fine, he pays a slot for that. Although the spell makes a setting more boring, it's the GMs prerogative if it's there or not.

I saw a thread about this guy on /pol/. It's the only time I've ever seen them refuse to give someone the Ben Garrison treatment.

I didn't even know what okra was until I watched the slave-food series.

>>54121965
What the heck is the Ben Garrison treatment?

How to make simple beesewax candles. I can easily see this being the main method for both dwarves and humans.

Elves would probably simply take the wick and wrap it directly in the bee hive comb after they removed all the honey from it.

Why doesn't she put the strap back up, /pfg/?

>>54121287
Because she's a slut, as all elves are.

We were on page 7, shitlord.

Could you elaborate on "constantly meta-planning ooc every little thing"? What exactly are they doing?

Have you tried talking to them about it?

With regards to running, depends on the system. Some systems make running from combat functionally impossible, so make damn sure that they CAN get away at all. Then, instead of "lel u run or i kell u" retardation, give them a really hard encounter that'd be much easier if they disengaged and did X before coming back.

>>54121297

They just constantly spout "if we do A, B, or C, then X, Y, Z, and maybe R or K will happen" Then I hit them with the "is that what yall gonna do" and they just start switching those letters around.

As for some fights, I outnumber them fucking 5 to 1 and they manage to either not die or break the enemy. We had someone introduce PF to us and TPKd everyone at the end while laughing so I'm trying to stay away from a TPK.

Speak to them about the issue. If they keep metagaming you either use it against them or leave the group.

Remind them that escaping is an option. If they can flee but die because they decided to keep fighting, it's their fault.
There is a high chance that they will blame you for dying. And even when you explain to them the situation they might complain about not having enough information, the encounter be unbalanced, and so on.
I personally think it is OK to "teach them a lesson" but don't overdo it.
Give them hints about the danger, make npc's warn them about it, let their enemies give them a chance to flee before any conflict starts, if they still charge head on, and never run or surrender, they deserve it.

I voted under the assumption that liking traps is straight.

Uh... for a poll in a thread where a running meme is "be the little girl" and with a lot of /d/ (now /trash/ RIP /d/ cyoag) cros posting there seems to be a distinct lack of trans/other for gender identity.

‘Saviour Protocols: If a <Sept> Drones unit is within 3"
of a friendly <Sept> Infantry or <Sept> Battlesuit
unit when an enemy attack successfully wounds it, you
can allocate that wound to the Drones unit instead of
the target. If you do, that Drones unit suffers a mortal
wound instead of the normal damage.’

So what's the point of shield drones then if you can't take their invuln save? Great design team.

By not being a cringe-inducing, lonely, desperately undersexed autist.

>>54119719

What if you're lonely and desperately undersexed but try to avoid being cringe-inducing and you're not an autist?

>>54119774
Then I have a bad news for you.

No one?

This seems stupid-hard to pull off in an RPG

You could have them do sanity rolls. First time when they see him those who fail get a higher chance to "think" of him whn they roll next time. If they fail just sumon him. Ask them if they are okay with you being able to call him once every session and you should be good to go.

Well, you failed since that is more lewd than cute.

Everyone knows REAL wizards, warlocks, witches, etc use their urine, sweat and blood (individually) as mana.

Think about it.
When people urinate for the first time of the day they feel weaker over time.
When people sweat they feel weaker afterwards.
When people bleed they feel weaker afterwards.

Take pills against your autism and do whatever the fuck you want with your setting then?

Worst case you can just pretend that west Rome managed to unfuck its public horse stipendium and created an actual knightly class.

>>54118198
Go to one of the city-states in Italy.

Most fantasy settings is very much only medieval/feudal in aesthetics and not in how it actually functions.

I know that's a shitty non-answer but games like DnD don't even make an attempt to keep to the three class system, highly orderly society with a lot more rights and freedoms to the lower classes then people think but a lot less then you'd hope.

>>54117842
Power levels aren't really all that balanced between armies it seems. I think most people seem to be rocking either 1000 or 2000 pt lists

> orks are still garbage
> chaos still garbage
> sisters still garbage
> Marines are even more bland then ever but still everywhere.
Not a hole lot has changed op

Also guard no longer platoons so have fun looking half your army when your opponent looks at them.

>>54117769
I think its aboit collecting all the figures and learning all yhe special rules associtaed with them. Also cant wait to see what the new meta is going to be

>but will never master the thimble or iron
Well you don't have anything to worry about then because both of those have been squatted.
