Last thread we had some great Combined Army memes, some TAG shit posting, and not to mention the cuckening of the US Ariadna players. Also Magharabi Guard are fair.

Welcome to the thread for d20 station, a rules light, medium RP Space Station 13 server.

>What is Space Station 13?
It's a 2D top down atmospherics simulator with who dun it gameplay layered on top. Each crew member aboard the station has a specific job to perform, while a select few are selected to be traitors (assassin/spy/thief).

>Why is this on muh /tg/?
d20 is a server made for fa/tg/uys by fa/tg/uys

>How do I play?
You'll need to download the BYOND client.
BYOND Download link: http://www.byond.com/download/
A BYOND account is HIGHLY recommended

To connect: Open BYOND, click the gear in the upper right. Click "Open Location" and paste in the IP below (Visual guide: http://i.imgur.com/d9D82fK.jpg).
byond://76.16.8.127:28014 OR byond://d20station.ddns.net:28014

>I'm new, and I don't know what the fuck to do. How do I swap hands?
Use OOC (backspace say" in the bottom, type OOC and hit enter, or: http://i.imgur.com/RodAGGZ.png), which means Out Of Character chat, and ask someone for help on how to play. People will almost always help you get a grip of the game if you're polite about it, just don't reveal too much in-round information in OOC.
There's also wikis dedicated to documenting the spaceman way of life, but they vary widely from server to server.

>What are the rules?
The rules are very relaxed and admins try to take a hands-off approach to administrating. Admins will generally only intervene if someone is explicitly playing to ruin the game. Reminder to read the rules in-game.

>What map/code do you run?
We run a heavily modified Ministation map with mostly custom code. Most jobs on Ministation are merged with similar counterparts and head roles have been re-enabled.

>When does everyone play?
The server is mostly populated with Americlaps, so peak times are usually between 7pm-3am EST

>Who are these tripfags?
Usually admins/coders for the server.

"Everything is snowflake, nothing is snowflake" edition

For all your questions on Dark Heresy (1st and 2nd Editions), Rogue Trader, Deathwatch, Black Crusade, and Only War.
Not the wargame, not Chapter Master, not Space Hulk. Inquisitor is okay, but not many people know about it.

Not sure between starting Dark Heresy 1e and 2e? Pick 2e.

>Why did FFG lose the 40k RPG License?
Because they were bought by Asmodee and that caused some sort of licensing conflict.

>Will GW make their own 40k RPGs now?
Probably not. But if they do it will likely be worse than you could possibly imagine.

Book Repositories (If you're planning to download any Rogue Trader materials, read the .txt file in the RT directory)
https://mega.nz/#F!Pl0UgbJa!vDtTXMKnvZ26fUbuw4X9tg

There is a new Homebrew Megafolder option in above MEGA directory containing several things.

40K RPG tools, a site that contains stats or references for almost all weapons, armor and NPCs/adversaries. Not updated past DH2 core.
http://www.40krpgtools.com/

40k RPG Combined Armory (v6.48.161023), containing every piece of gear in all five lines. Now includes all DH2e books.

Hear ye, hear ye. I hereby call to order this meeting of the most illustrious Mages Guild! It has come to my attention that, instead of being a boy's club full of beards, there is a disproportionately large number of women in the guild! We need to fix that by taking in more males! That aren't redrobes! Because girls have cooties! I think. Whatever, the point is, the guild needs more men! I don't care if you have to call your anti-magic ex-boyfriend that you broke up with back home, we'll take anyone at this point as long as they're at least mostly biologically male.

Also, I have been informed that kidnapping men from the other guilds is discouraged at best. However, if nobody catches you...
Regardless, fix it!

Welcome to the Mages' Guild. Pick a name and join in! Conflicts are resolved with d20s when needed, or with playing it out. When the thread dies on /tg/, we keep it going on archived.moe. For additional resources, please visit http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Mage%27s_guild or http://collabedit.com/6fvae

Ever whored your services DM and GMs of /tg/?

Just been offered money to DM as a sort of adult birthday party for manlets. Not big money but money I'd accept as a working wage any day of the week.

How would you even put that on a tax return.

So I'm sort of working on a homebrew to play with some friends, and I was wondering if people would be willing to weigh in on something I'm having trouble deciding.

So the homebrew works on a profession system, where you take a few levels (probably five) in one profession, which determines your class skills (as standard for d20), abilities and ability score increases for those five levels (but your feats are left free). Once you're done with a profession, you can nominate a 'trained' skill that your character will always have as a class skill, regardless of profession, to create a bit of a sense of continuation between professions.

My issue is that I'm not sure which approach to now go for: a lot of professions with some overlap between them (think WHFRP - or at least early versions), as they'd allow for people to be sure that they'd have a profession that reasonably lines up with what they had before (so they wouldn't have to risk wasting skill points, for example, if they can only take a skill for five levels), and thus make sure people can always make a concept that appeals to them. However, I'm worried that this would take some of the necessity of hard choices out of picking a profession, and then also thinking of enough professions that fit the setting and that can be at least somewhat distinct from each other.

The other option would be to have fewer professions that are all much more distinct from each other (I guess like d20 modern classes?), which would allow each one to feel unique and add some gravitas to the decision, but I'm worried that, even with the concept of trained skills it might just needlessly restrict character design and force people into same-y combinations to avoid wasteful careers (such as putting points into a skill in one profession that are then not class-skills in another).
