Aether Revolt is such a shit set. What's the point of even opening packs? The mythics are jank as fuck, even Heart of Kiran and Tezz aren't great. 2 weeks from now, there won't be a single card in this set above $15 TCG Mid. Worst assortment of Mythics since Journey into Nyx.

MTGFinance people will push either HoK or Tezz above $30, don't worry
>>
>>51215592
Heart is $20 now (granted it will likely settle around $12-15 when the set officially drops).
Anyway, what's wrong with that? For YEARS, tier 1 Standard decks cost on average $300, just 60% of the current average of $500. Top-tier budget decks ($100 or less) were much more common back then, too, two famous examples being RG Fires and Bloodbraid Jund.

DnD is literally a videogame, your character is performing an attack animation whenever you declare you are taking the attack action.

if you crit and dont kill a humanoid either you or your dm is playing the game badly.

>>51215530
The guy is wearing full plate armour, there are other warriors attempting to attack you, you are harried and tired yourself and are focusing on an intricate arcane spell.
Succesfully slit his throat, you have six seconds.

I prefer a good offense, but the problem is that makes you look like a threat.
Which in a multiplayer game, is a great way to lose quickly.

Now A Major Motion Picture Edition
FAQ
>What is it?
Kingdom Death is a board game where you kill monsters to make cool new hats.
>Where can I buy it?
Nowhere. You just missed the kickstarter, and the webstore wont be getting any more stock while the update is in production. Should restock on Black Friday. If you want to play it, check eBay for the old version, or play over Tabletop Simulator.
>When does it deliver?
Core game will likely be this year, mid-late fall. Current Expansions will ship soon after, followed by Gamblers Chest and Promos next year, then Expansions shipping in two or three waves between then and 2020.
>Can I add to my pledge in the Pledge Manager?
Nobody knows. Anybody who claims otherwise is lying.
>WTF is this Ekoi shit?
Ekoi is an anon who got his OC made into the Anonymous Survivor promo and got a direct line to Poots. He namefagged for a bit then some faggot(s) decided to shitpost as "Ekoi". Real one is !JPiuy1x7.k ignore or report all others, with any luck they'll go away soon.

143KB, 1280x1604px
While far less often acknowledged than those of Robert Howard, Micheal Moorcock or J.R.R.Tolkien, Poul Anderson has undeniably influenced the history of roleplaying games, particularly through its influence on early D&D.
However, I've noticed that a couple of major running themes through his fantasy works never really made it, somehow: first is the use of historical settings rather than fantasy ones (or, as in the case of Tolkien and Howard, the assumption of stories taking place so far into the past they might as well be fantasy settings). The second is the conflict between Christianity and Paganism and the heavy reliance, compared to the others on this list, on traditional European folklore (as opposed to Tolkien's use of Norse mythology as a basis for a mostly imagined world or Howard and Moorcock's near entirely fictional, exotic ones).
How would modern RPGs have looked if, back in the day, those elements of Anderson's writing have been introduced into early D&D?

There was a big emphasis on historical settings back in the day, when the hobby was mostly wargamers with a bunch of lead infantry ranked up. I can't imagine a situation where it stays historical, rather than the current system of 'fictional worlds stolen from various eras'.
>>
>>51203261
Why do you think so?
>>
I for one would love an RPG system that's all centered around the idea of a world slowly becoming more and more monotheistic, while in the other world, the gods have begun searching across the supernatural worlds for that fucking cunt YHWH that has been stealing their believers.
While the Gods are gone looking for that Jewish desert demon to beat up, the trickster gods and embodiments of chaos have free reign to play with Earth.
