I wish someone posted the screencap about orc pidgeon holocaust.

No souls for anyone, no afterlife for anyone. I prefer realism in my games.

>>52561033
Fuck that. Ghosts are the bomb.

Not exactly /tg/, but all the anime conventions I've been to have had games. I know Fanime has a huge room with a bunch of board games (of all types), puzzle games, and a good number of RPG and Card game tables

>>52561015
Yea I've seen a lot of /tg/ stuff at anime cons, but never sat down to play them because I was there for anime stuff. However, I will be running a D&D one shot at an upcoming convention.

Went to one recently
Keep in mind this was in a small city in latin america so there was 40 people tops
Most people had a good time and learned the basics
But i never seen so many fat people in one place on top of the smell
Plus the DM was horrible and he kept an erection for 4 hours straight explaining all the lore of a game that was supposed to be a one shot

Do rangers make 2 whirlwind attacks per turn with the "extra attack" feature?

reposting because the new thread just happened:
I want to make Kenku slightly better for my next game. Which of these options sounds best?

>Climb Speed
>Limited Flight (x rounds/rest)
>Limited Flight (fall at end of turn)
>Some kind of gliding ability (are there established rules for this?)

>>52560796
No

I'm not sure anyone in 40k is capable of building a ringworld to begin with.

>>52560071
DAoT Mankind or Necrons could. Necrons might have just to win the War in Heaven.

>>52560071
There's a Dyson's sphere near the edge of the galaxy. And Mars has an artificial ring around it.

First, don't buy the books until you've played the game and decided you really want them. It's a pretty big investment for a game you haven't played yet and 5e's core rules are all online.

Go to /5eg/ and download the three core books and the starter set. Read the starter set and one of you run the introductory adventure. Lost Mines of Phandelver is fun and does a good job of steadily expanding the scope as you figure out the rules.

Once you're done with the adventure decide if you like 5e enough to stick with it or explore a different version.

The three domains of D&D are combat, exploration, and storytelling.

If you like exploration (discovering cool places and treasure, interacting with traps and puzzles) old-school D&D is where it's at. 2e, OSR games, or OD&D/1e if you're a real man.

If you like combat (the tactical challenge of killing monsters with complicated rules as in a wargame or video game) 4e is the best.

If you like storytelling (the act of cutting off and consuming your own penis as penance for the crimes of the white patriarchy) 5e's rules do their best to stay out of the way.

If you're autistic or a weeb 3.5 and 3.PF are your quarantine games.


The game's not all that hard. It looks very complicated but the vast majority of the numbers all interact with each other in the same few ways. You'll pick it up faster than you think.

Go buy the starter set, it's like $12 on Amazon, play with the premade characters.

The game is about having fun with your friends, everything else is secondary.

The shitty thing about meta cyoas is that you need to repost them. Someone should make a meta meta cyoa for that.

Messed up when trying to start a thread (forgot thread name), so I'll just post the CYOA I was going to start it with.

What happened to the Bernie pic you've used to spam?

Because that bullet is travelling in excess of 1400ft/s and is focusing all of that force straight through whatever it hit. Also, enchanted bullets.

A character example?

Stealing from others, while not inherently immoral, is inherently unlawful.

When I decided it was a good idea to include two players into my Traveller game who both worked shifts and weekends at different times. Nearly impossible to get them to sit down and throw some dice on the same day.

Life reared its ugly head and punched our GM in the dick until he wasn't able to run the game for us anymore.
Really bummed me out, the game was fun, the GM was cool, and us players all seemed to bounce off each other really well. RIP

>Campaign 1.
Ran for about ten years. Managed to keep it someone consistent and wrap it up before all my players got busy with life.

>Campaign 2
Ran for about..eight years? I wanted to round it off and end it, but the players wanted more and more of the same and it eventually got dragged out into an unfinished mess. At this point more and more people are busy with work/family/uni and whatnot.

>Campaign 3
Abortive attempt when all the players I gathered for it had a dramabomb and fell out.
>Campaign 3.2
I personally got frustrated at players because there was always someone missing or something happening that made it irksome to plan for.
>Campaign 3.3
Replaced all the players and now trundling along. Lots of interest and support from them. Hoping to get good milage out of this one.

>/tg/ feels
I love TTRPG and everything related to fantasy but have no friends. It reminds me of my childhood, when I loved chess and monopoly but had nobody to play with other than a brief period of time when I went to chess club. I was kicked out under false pretenses and when everything was cleared up and I was invited back in I didn't feel like attending anymore.

>>52559501
that's a bad feel bro

Dude, it hasn't even been up for five minutes. /tg/ doesn't move that fast. Give it time. And if you're going to bump, at least throw in a relevant or amusing picture. [Pic Related]
