QUESTIONS:
Describe a leader in your setting, whether a king or just a particular interesting parent. What makes them uniquely capable to lead others in your setting (or uniquely awful at it)?
How have past leaders influenced the present? Do people remember these leaders?
How are leaders chosen? Divine favor, popular vote, technocratic cyborg leader-building?

Poor Invincible, she never stood a chance with a name like that.

Think of the bright side, at least she wasn't named HMS Unsinkable.

Two "Good" (benevolent and caring towards mortals) gods will be feuding violently.
Setting(for anyone that cares):
>Singular giant city ,surrounded by city states
>All Indian(The country) theme, because it works like a charm
>Most cities with a king, a few runned by a council of elders
>Cities are in economic and military aligiance through past familial connection amongst said monarchs king
>Orcs are scorned and in many ways backwards but not a great threat and live in the cities.
>Elves are just lithe humans
>High elves are Magical juggernauts, and do not mingle with normies
>Humans are....humans

What are the gods' domains?
>>
>>52483967
\Never got that far....
I was thinking;
equality, justice, order
vs
freedom, development, festivals
>>
Basically Chaotic Good versus Lawful good. Chaotic Good God did something that while being good, is against the "Law", or the Lawful god tries to enact a law while being "good" goes against freedom or something the Chaotic God holds as a high ideal.
Maybe the Chaotic god set a repented demon but truly reformed free that the Lawful god said wasn't finished being punished, breaking trust between the two of them?

I want to try hacking/homebrewing a system to run a kung fu fantasy wuxia type of game. I was thinking of using S&W Whitebox as a base, but I've also heard good things about Apocalypse World. What would you guys recommend for a base system?
>inb4 Legends of the Wulin
I cannot get past the editing problems. It's terrible.

Well OP, a lot depends on your vision for how the system will look.
How crunchy do you want it? Are you aiming for low or high Wuxia? Very classical or with room for modern Honk-Kong action cinema too?
These are important questions which will help us give you a better answer.
(Also, as someone who loves LotW I'm more than willing to help out if you have any specific questions or want any clarifications. Then again, I can't blame you for giving up entirely, the core book editing and layout is a fucking travesty.)
>>
HERO or GURPS might be what you're looking for. They're generic systems built with the intent of being extremely customizable.
I've never actually played GURPS, but HERO would be pretty easy to set up for that kind of thing. It has a bit of a learning curve, though.
>>
>>52482288
>How crunchy do you want it?
Not very. I don't want there to be a whole lot of book keeping. Wanna go for rules light sort of stuff.
>Are you aiming for low or high Wuxia?
I guess high? I want people flying around and using mystical techniques and magic and shit.
>Very classical or with room for modern Honk-Kong action cinema too?
I'd like to keep it strictly fantasy.

A contraction is one word that stands in for two. They become one word.

Hello follow Fa/TG/irls!
I am one of the core devs and testers on the L5R team at FFG.
I will be doing an AMA on the subject of L5R LCG for the rest of the day.
Here is a tidbit to get things started.
The game will still have 2 decks but they will not both be freely constructed. Families will play a key role in what cards you have to run.

How do you justify a civilization having almost zero contact with other cultures that share the same continent? Preferably a solution that doesn't involve 'a wizard did it'
27 Posts / 1 Images

Impregnable mountain rages. Look at Kashmir, it had contact with other cultures, because it wanted to, though it was able to shut itself up almost completely.
>>
Huge ass jungle, desert, tundra or steppe in between, like IRL. Or a fuckton of mountains, of course.
>>
It's less developed, and other civilizations don't contact it on purpose. Look up "uncontacted peoples".

Probably fake. Has no text to cast it from the graveyard like the other split card we've seen, and normal split cards aren't printed like that.
Also why would elspeth return in Egypt if she died in Greece?
