>pummeler did 80 damage
Jesus I'm so glad me and a friend decided to throw together that deck.
Dope af.
Speaking of which, currently running 3 uncaged fury and 1 fling. Should I go for full fun mode and just take out all the uncaged fury for the ability to throw a huge robot at someone?

Why is Fevered Visions a bad card in today's Standard?

>>53700113

Cards like fevered visions are generally only good against control, control isn't too popular

>>53690929
First for Nova did nothing wrong.

I'd personally use a modification of the Starship Troopers RPG since it already has rules for psychics, and Aracnids can be altered to be zerg. It's d20 though, so I'd probably use an altered Only War instead.

>>53691007
Can someone pitch me on Dark Heresy and Only War and its differences? Adapt D&D5e and said Starship Troopers d20? Please no GURPS

A Starcraft RPG should be about heroes doing great things or murderhobos trying to survive a 3 race war?

Reaper reporting.

>>53681682
Seems like they tossed this out to calm people who are worried about the fluff being unrecognizable. This is pretty much exactly what happened to Arasou in the base timeline, though IIRC Toturi didn't get called out from the monastery until after Arasou got himself killed. Toturi is also still personal friends with Crane Clan champ. Though I don't think Hotrui personally killed Araousu, Tsuko is still a massive ragebitch and they name dropped Gohei, Aketoki, and Motso, so we expect some of old staple chars to make it into the game.

As a Crab that's got me drooling a bit for Amoro...

>>53681831
Motso appeared in the fiction a few times to get almost killed and then stand around while his lords fought shamefully. I kind of feel bad for him

Hitomi is worst girl.

>30mm Skirmish Tabletop game
I thought that it was 32mm? Or is it one of those games where they jacked up the scale over time like 40K, Warmahordes, Infinity, ect?

Forgotten Realms has a lot of things to dislike in it, sure, but it's got a pretty good example of this in the kingdom of Many-Arrows. You could look it up for ideas. Maybe also Orsinium from the Elder Scrolls.

What you just said sounds good enough, but given how chaotic and warlike orcs tend to being, I don't see it lasting very long before it collapses.

>>53779285
Holy fuck nobody cares what you think because nobody knows what kind of orcs you're talking about, and I can tell you it's not any of the established versions, just your own fucking headcannon. The headcannon of a fat nerd in a basement dreaming of being a noble savage warrior in a noble savage culture that destroys things that challenge your view of the world, such as the elves which you probably see as either faggots or supermen, and humans, which you see as normies.
WE. DON'T. KNOW. WHICH. ORCS. YOU. MEAN.
There's a reason for the existence of the All Orcs Are Different trope.
Also you have zero knowledge of what Turkish and Mongol culture are. Stop making shit threads retard.

>>53779285
I actually love to invoke the various steppe cultures for Orcs as I think they're fascinating, alien to most people, but fantastic too. Not just Turkish and Mongol, but Scythian and the like.

That being said, >>53779334 is right because what the fuck orcs do you mean, and nothing you really listed is at all like Turkic or Mongol culture.

k

My game is set in a once peaceful kingdom that mercifully welcomed the survivors of a ravished country. Their faith was strange and backwards, but the king insisted that they could integrate into society. Now, the players are battling against a rapidly spreading cult that promotes violent conquest.

Obviously, Islam is the inspiration here, although I downplayed some of its worst parts, such as pedophilia. I'm not running some magical realm after all.

>>53778673
I had to come up with a reason to not give my players firearms, decided that religion got big real quick and plunged the world into an early Dark Age, thus technology had barely progressed in the past few hundred years.

>>53778673
Yes. I had an early colonial witch hunter game.

I didn't read the rules, but I did read the spell schools.

Is Enchantment in this case like controlling peoples minds or is it more like enchanting items? Either way I like the paired schools you have there, they go together pretty well.

>>53777468
How do Metal & Transmutation, Motion & Levitation and Conjuration & Scrying not deal direct damage?
Also, how do you exclude schools from doing direct damage if they don't have defined spell effects?
And why is "direct damage" a thing anyway?

>>53777555
It is mind control, fear and nightmares. But it can also be used for messages, making people forget and so on.
It's mostly "dark" magic, removing free will.

Linger around /tg/ for a while? A thread where people list their favorite games can be helpful. I don't know of any sort of comprehensive list of RPGs, and even if there were, it would either have too many games on it (many very obscure) to be very useful, or there would be controversy over which games got included or excluded.

The OSR thread can clue you in to the various retroclones and old-school D&D-based games. A partial list of OSR is here too: http://taxidermicowlbear.weebly.com/dd-retroclones.html

Looking over gaming stats for places like Roll20 might be helpful too (see pic), though one thing you'll learn is how much a few games dominate the market, so while you may find the games most folks are playing, you're not going to see most of the games that folks are playing, if you see what I'm saying. Most games won't get a mention.

>>53777286
Your question doesn't make much sense.
Not to mention that Dungeon World doesn't fit into any of these three categories.

>>53777286
I remember a google doc with all of the D&D "retroclones" in it, but can't find it.

>>53777113
The GUMSHOE engine is very good for mystery games in my experiance, there are a few systems which use it, maybe have a look though them and see which one fits what you have in mind the best.

>Can you create such a game where no one in the party knows the "killer", the twists etc?
I'm not sure what you mean by this

>>53777113
>1.Are there any good mystery/detective type games?

Literally all of the GUMSHOE games, anon.

>2.Can you create such a game where no one in the party knows the "killer", the twists etc?

That is what a mystery is, yes.

>>53778119
Yeah I mean, create on the spot, throwing dice and create a plot that you don't know how it ends and you have to unravel it.

>How many in your group are using Granblues for character art right now?

Nigger, I'm probably the one /pfg/ should thank since I uploaded those granblue png on exhentai and dumped a link here.

Incidentally, I have 20GB of Pixiv Fantasia that I've yet to upload on a torrent yet.

If whining is a big enough problem at the table that you need to institute a formal rule then you need to find a new group. Preferably adults and not children.

>>53775509
Yes, as long as all dice rolls are in the open.

Yes. Complaining about random numbers being number is immature and annoying for the others, particularly when those failed rolls have no real impacts on your character, the group or the story.
If you want to succeed in every task you made, go play video games or a system that alloxs it without rolling.
