>Does /m/ know of /tg/'s Adeptus Evangelion?
Yes.
>What do you all think of it?
I think it'd be fine if it was never discussed anywhere but /tg/, and better yet if it was never discussed there at all.
At least it's not quest shit.
Speaking of, have quests all finally migrated to the new board?

Of course not.
Most "mainstream" quests have stayed on /tg/, which the newbies searching for a non-existent audience on /qst/

I'll give AdEva this: for a tabletop group that's ADD about finishing games, we managed to run two AdEva campaigns to completion. I even GMed one, and I'm not a terribly good GM.
That said, the system is still really shitty. v3 is simultaneously better and worse than 2.5, but both suffer from a lot of the same issues, like how your accuracy starts off utter garbage at first and then later it becomes impossible to miss. Both games also suffer from giving you lots of potentially cool shit and then punishing you mercilessly if you try to use any strategy that's not dual-wielding prog knives. You spend huge amounts of turns doing nothing to the Angel and then suddenly someone kills it in one or two shots.

The sad thing is that for all its flaws I think adeva might actually still be one of the best mecha RPGs around.
Like, adeva has some problems, but somehow the other mecha games out there manage to be even more autistic or clumsy.

>Speaking of, have quests all finally migrated to the new board?
The constant shitpost quests have drowned out any of /tg/'s "popular" quests, which are all staying there.
Literally all /qst/ did was make quests even shittier.
Great job hiro.

Played only half a short campaign with it. All the tables and abilities are really nice but the mechanics aren't that good/balanced. We switched to Silhouette Core halfway through the campaign.
Since we're talking about quests and Eva, have you guys seen the Evangelion Quest they have over at /tg/? The OP drawfags a lot and there's non-stop happenings.
>>
>>14209575
But that actually sounds like how Eva Combat works in series, unless you count the rebuilds.

It's an awful, awful system. You can have fun with it, but most of the fun is just bantz and interacting outside of angel fights. Play Battle Century G / Battle Century Z instead. It's a much better mecha game that actually knows what it's doing, and you can adapt it to Evangelion super easily. G is like the base game, Z is an expansion with everything from magic to insanity.

Hey, at least there were ones that actually had stats and rolls every once in a while instead of the QM just going

Seconding this. BCG is a great all around system for running mecha stuff. I've played a couple games of it to completion while every time I play AdEva, it's a clusterfuck and gets cancelled a few sessions in.

Feels bad man. NBS was the only quest I've ever followed and now it's dead.

That sucks, I was getting really invested in the cast and plot. I hope the QM reveals what was going on with the cryptic MAGI stuff.

Speaking of quests, are there even any good /m/-related ones around currently?
>>
>>14211514
To tell you the truth, I think /qst/ was an awful idea too.
/tg/ did have a neat board culture once, but it's been gone and dead for a long time, and if you remove the quests it's just going to turn into a boring mess of system-based general threads with none of the old memes and general fantasy/sci-fi/IMAGINATION bullshit. I don't want another /vg/.
>>
>>14212684
Those still exist man.

>>14218676
Yea, it was a containment board for something from a single board. It was like making a /djn/ board because people started whining about porno mangas on /d/ or something.

I played it safe. I like to respond to every post I can but didn't want 40 ''fug that scarred chick'' replies. /qst/ had a shitty first week, it could've happened.
If quests were allowed on other boards I would have tried Nerv Bridge Simulator here on /m/. I'm always here anyway.

>>14220995
An another /m/-themed QM, I'm incredibly jealous of your drawfagging skill. I just pick a character that looks sort of like what I have in my head from some other anime or video game and use it when I want to introduce a character.

Apparently Nerv can't hire competent surgeons who know how to stitch wounds. Rachel got fucked up by some incompetent medschool graduate. Rip.

Hey, can someone hook me up with some Battle Century G and Z pdfs?

No, the questfags want their new board to fail so they aren't moving.
>>
>>14218980
Quests were being shunted to /tg/ because /a/ and /co/ wanted them off their board. Thus /tg/ came to host unending waves of insipid "Anon-kun, what waifu will you pursue?", a half dozen Shit-Witches Quests, and a handful of Capeshit Quests (which actually had the decency to die off quickly once forced off their native boards). The only board that keeps their own quests is /mlp/ because the Anti-pony rules trumped the unwritten quest rule.
>>
>>14222228
Eh, still a single-board thing after they got kicked to /tg/. It didn't need recontainment.
>>
>>14222195
The new board is shit, it's a trap for the shitty quests.

>>14207359
Its not exactly the best system by any stretch, but with the right group and GM it can work and be damn good but that much is true of any system. It seems like AE has, unfortunately, as an homebrew 'done its time'. Something something zeitgeist of eva's return to mainstream fading something something Eva Q sucking. I know, purely speculation on my end with little of it truly proveable but I suspect the letdown of Eva 3.0 and the constant drama related to AE's development and no one being satisfied with either versions (V3 sucks and VB seem to lack any further development).
There are still people playing it, obviously.

>>14223888
That and BMJ is pretty clearly burned out on the whole thing. He was the one carrying V3 and I don't think anyone has seen him in weeks, maybe months at this point.
So no new content = no new interest

>>14207359
The damage mechanics were fairly clunky (if technically understandably straightforward).
However I didn't ever get into it because I was told that the IRC admin for the channel was a gigantic douchebag by some of my other /tg/ friends, so I just let it go.

>>14220995
/qst/ might have better taste than /tg/ and go for the Christmas Cake instead.

>>14208277
>8% of the /tg/'s traffic gets its own board
>mod who spearheaded the board said he played in Ruby Quest 10 years ago
this place is going to be nothing but subreddits with mods like this
and Eva Adeptus will always be a hot mess.
go play ORE Mecha if you want table top mecha rpg

/tg/ IRCs seem to attract the worst possible autists, so I can see why. I say this as an avid gunpla fan, so you know this is autism beyond the typical spectrum of autism. Autismost, if you will.

Not my fault people suck at being creative, because I've rarely seen not-Shinji, not-Asuka, not-Rei, and not-Misato.

Is V3 out of draft mode yet?
Last I checked it was still bare bones, and I actually really like all the world-building quotes we got in 2.5
>>
>>14229888
It was functional as of the open beta 3.1 I had back in last May, I don't know if there's a newer version since then. Hopefully it reduce Angel defenses a bit: I played an AT specialist who used a Positron Rifle that literally could not do damage to the Angel, not even Soft Damage, without rolling a 10, which at 51 Firearms was a 5% chance of happening. The combat lasted six hours and I didn't even get to fucking Berserk at the end, the one cool thing I was looking forward to, because it was 4 AM.

They are up to like 3-5 or something now. And yeah, they rebalanced the shit out of weapons.
Still no OD.
>>
>>14224399
He isn't dead or something, he's working on the Ops Director book as of last month. No new updates on core V3 until he finishes.
Personally, I could care less about the OD book and more about balancing what we have first but /tg/ are a bunch of whiny faggots who complain non-stop about pointless shit.
/m/ isn't much better from what it sounds.

/m/-themed QM here, I've been slowly working on a shmups mega crossover quest. Dunno how I can rope in /vr/ and /vg/'s respective groups for it.
