Gigantic gold piece that they can't bring back.

no, but there will be a new PHB including the revised ranger

Describe it as normal sized in the distance without frames of reference, and then casually mention that the bird was carrying a horse and not a small rodent, and then they realize it's a fucking Roc.

>How do they even stay profitable?

From what I picked up from Shadowrun, mostly by not paying their freelance writers.

Only because the guy in charge was taking it to build a massive house. But don't worry, nobody was punished and the money was never actually returned to the company, they paid the writers from other funds.

>>50972823
The guy said he's sorry and that he's a better human with a bigger house now.

It's how America works.

A firm pair of tits and everyone wanting to touch them has a certain appeal!

There are plenty of fantasy archetypes other than Beatstick McMuscles. Some only fit women.

Well i usually play MtF trans characters.

Wrong. Hans is done with running away.

In order to learn good GMing, you need a system that
- doesn't work against you and
- contains useful GMing advice.
D&D 5e doesn't fulfill either criterion.

If you want to learn running modules, Ryuutama and its two sample scenarios have you covered.
If you want to learn how to sandbox, Apocalypse World is where it's at.

As for props, I got into RPGs through D&D 3.5's board game, and those figurines are the only ones I've ever used. Having the perfect figurine for every single PC, NPC and monster is not only unnecessary, but impratical and expensive as all hell.

I forgot to mention,
>PDF related in it being similar to what I have in mind in terms of simplicity.

I have been tossing around an idea lately of something along the lines of rolling a few dice and taking either highest roll or cumulative number.

GM adjusts the specific number of rolls depending on factors such as: type of foe, powers of the characters, tactics, etc.

For instance, a mortal soldier fighting a demigod with a non-war domain would get 1 die while the demigod got 2. War domains would get 3 instead, and a power of specialization with a weapon would be worth another die.

To prevent both sides trying to engineer situations that result in them having massive handfuls of dice, both sides should have die counts decreased by 1 simultaneously until one or both sides have a single die left. Rolls should always have one side having a single die, regardless of those involved.

Full-blown [GODs] get large die counts. Double-digits, versus the demigod's 1 during contests. The goal being to try to get their count down.

And of course all demigods are immune to each other's powers that affect more than just the physical body, as per the original story.

So, there's an ability based on your god, and you get stronger depending on how many people worship you. Instead of dying you respawn on another plane, and you have some resistance to other divine abilities.

These are all things that are pretty straightforward, and can be tacked onto the game of your choice.

Fantasy is kill.

They replaced setting with He Man

>inb4 anti 40k shills come

But a couple of models and try out Kill Team for 40k.

Lords of War lets you use Fantasy models so there is that.

>>50970485
Fantasy is dead, and despite all my wishes doesn't look like it'll ever come back.

Get the Total War game, even with DLC it'll be less expensive and more fun than the tabletop anyways.

Question for YJ_Anon
In the Young Justice jump, does peak condition stack with other peak conditions perks?
Also what other jumps have you made? I really like this one.

Jumpers!

Do you normally try to hide your status as an outsider or not?

Do you normally use modern/future tech in pure fantasy worlds and magic in pure scifi setting or have fun with what is already part of the setting?

In which settings have you done the opposite of what you normally do?

Fantasy worlds, it depends how good their magic is and how snarky their mythical flying beasts are.

Skyrim dragons are all like "Aren't thou envious of the Dova, for we can fly." and I came back with my Striker and some missiles.

Scifi worlds I don't change it too much, I'm more tech focused than magically focused. Strip mine a few planets, use SCP 2400 to quick grow the first generation of my daughteru army and I'm a reasonably powerful independent player with the biggest, baddest toys. I do try and play just above the natives level though, partially because I'm worried about an unseen entity thinking I'm some threat but mainly because some of my toys fucking terrify me.

>>50970237
Oh, Iok. You are just the worst, and that's saying something in the world of Iron-Blooded Orphans. Though maybe that's to your benefit, because you're so bad it actually loops around to me having a bizarre affection for you. Like, I don't care if any of the other characters live or die, but I want Iok to stay around so I can continue marveling at how shitty he is at his job.

Oh god, Iok. The most amazing fuckup. I love IBO, and I find it amazing that they manage to make even a total screwup like him oddly charming in his idiocy.

>>50970237 not entire games but we've had it come up a few times, whether it's idiot nobles trying to be heroes or idiot nobles trying to be villains. Half the time it's hard to tell the difference.

You're only making it worse.

Any, all and yes.

You can adapt this premise to pretty much any typical fantasy game. It works a hell of alot better than "you all meet in a tavern", speaking from personal experience here. It gives everyone an instant investment in the group and allows the GM to use the goals of the group as a way get all the individual characters on board with plothhooks without having to worry about how to make a bunch of unrelated strangers stay teamed up and playing nice with eachother.

have not looked into it too much but i know "swords of the petal throne" has stuff for being part of a clan. It could probably be used for a mercenary company.
