Chess noir

I feel the difference between the three is way too huge to make this system interesting, at least with d20.
But I like the overall idea.

>>53304441
3d3 exploding

>>53305301
I've had a different idea that's a bit more complex, but more coherent in terms of TN diffculties.

Basically,
>base die is d6
>[Stat Rank] equals amount of dice rolled
>[Skill Rank] equals amount of dice kept
>Stat and Skill ranks range from 1 to 6
So basically, you roll Xd6kY to beat a TN. It seems like a good system on paper, but I never got around to graph it properly.

It looks like something I'd want to play.

>>53307138
I'm definitely excited! Premise is the players encountering things they as characters and players likely wouldn't have dealt with before. No Orc and Kobolds just weirdness.

Bump. If the thread is still alive when I'm not on the phone, I'll dump my folder

They're running out of material , this is literally nothing we don't already know.

>>53303925
To be fair some of this we only knew due to the unofficial leaks.

And those leaks turned out to be wrong on a whole bunch of things, so getting confirmation on this was good.

So, what, a castle that's functionally an indoors city?

>>53301518
Yes.
If it ain't got firearms, gun wizards, flying islands, flying ships, kaiju-sized monsters and wire-fu martial artists, it ain't worth playing.

>>53301518
I like my setting to basically be in the Renaissance era
I like there to be early firearms, boats that can sail for years, large and populated cities with huge monuments to be used as cool setpieces

>>53301585
i like to keep the aesthethic a little understated
but yeah, keep them coming, your world should always have a bit of everything

nothing is ever off-limits in my settings

First for night lords, the faggest legion>>53298374

>caution, new to this, bought a BoC set and got some shit off ebay
I like infantry, I like bikes, and I like flyers.
Is there any way to make all of them work in a list, or is massive war machine tanks essential to a legion list nowadays?

Dunno, a major divination spell that will tell you the whole story of a civilisation as their members remember it?

>>53298240
By the Sword in My Hand- Tyr
Transforms the target into a warrior of equal level to him, with a +3 magic weapon, granting an additional d6 of health per level. The spell ends when the target is reduced to 0 health. The target then regains health equal to 1/2 level d6's.

>Until There Is No End by Lorn
I'd imagine it would probably grant immortality at the cost of gradual loss of sanity and the inevitability of an eventual state of near-mindlessness.

>>53296009
If you've got FTL, artificial gravity, or any of the other wildly advanced technologies that tend to appear in most sci-fi settings, violating the laws of thermodynamics to create zero-waste closed systems or convert heat directly to energy is pretty much the least significant scientific problem.

>>53296078
I just made it so the bullshit FTL drive/artificial gravity generators in setting run really, really cold so you can just run some vents near it to cool shit down as needed. Need to keep it seperate from the rest of the ship via vaccuum/Insulation to avoid turning it into an icecube every time it's turned on though.

>>53296009
Yeah, but hopefully your ship has good enough heat sinks that it can retract the radiators temporarily. Mostly during combat, is when you'd need it. It's possible to armor radiators, but not easy, and it eats into your mass ratio like nobody's business.

I CAST FIST, and hit the floor!

>>53295176
Which of those mimics is your favourite? I personally enjoy mimics that are dumb and a little shitty at their job so they set up in incongruous places and are a little off with their mimicry. Nonsense writing, upside-down locks, not quite right angles, that sort of thing.

I cast magic missile on the building

No, it shouldn't be hard to accommodate one of the games you're already playing to it.

Try Riddle of Steel.

>>53293018
Not any specifically for it. You could go with generic fantasy setting with a few house rules. Not sure how lethal you'd want to make it. I just don't really see any way to balance it so it won't just be "rocks fall and everyone dies".

>>53293018
literally any game run by a dickish GM will do fine

Everyone needs a drone. Something as simple as an extra set of eyes to watch your back, or something that can swoop in and suppress when you're in a pickle, is a cheap and wonderful force multiplier.

>Game and community constantly tell you "never cut a deal with a dragon"
>GM reveals Johnson is a dragon
>Dragon shows up and demands we hunt down the macguffin for it
>Our team knows the runner mantra so we tell it to fuck off
>It slowly and methodically dismantles our social network until all our contacts have gone quiet and turned against us before telling lone star where our base is in retribution
>We all die in the ensuing shootout

Fuck you guys we 100% would have been better off just dealing with it

>>53292937
>We all die in the ensuing shootout
>implying it wouldn't have let you die anyway
anyway, what kind of dragon was it and how powerful were you guys? because if you are low enough that the star is a danger to you, then it probably would have disposed of you anyways

>eating coins

Oh dog

I didn't get as many replies as I would have hoped last time I tried, so let's give it another go.

Try to make a filename based on an out-of-context screencap from a hentai, porn, or other erotic material. Preferably one you enjoy yourself. No points if the joke is "the word 'trap' has two common meanings on the internet in general and this board in specific".

A /tg/-relevant filename, of course.
