Old Thread: >>50831413
Is it possible to beat Pathfinder?
>>50831694
1. Thomas Harrigan
2. It was given to him.
3. He loves his adoptive parents very much, and he owes his compassion and curiosity to them. He has never met his biological parents.
4. Fried chicken, field peas, greens, cornbread, and sweet tea
5. He'd die trying to derail the trolley with his body
6. Think Adventures of Huckleberry Finn meets Paladin McCleaveandsmite
7. Old Drow Medicine Show
8. Most likely, kindly decline. However, the influence of alcohol might trigger his elven blood, making him quite the slattern.
9. Kindly decline.
10. Eat it anyway. The hardship of unpleasant food is no hardship at all, and spurning kindness is a powerful cruelty
11. He avoids drinking unless he's with trusted friends and family, and he prefers ales, ciders, whiskey, or moonshine when he does drink.
12. By praising the Inheritor's Light for conferring success upon him as a reward for his determination
13. He doesn't believe he'll get the opportunity to settle down
14. The hordes of the Abyss are infinite in their malice and number
15. He handles money fairly well. Windfalls are invested in magic wands, scrolls, arms, and armor, to aid his constant crusade against calamitous and chaotic forces
16. There's nothing better than fighting the Good fight.
17. No. If by some chance the Wicked are completely destroyed in his lifetime, he may consider retirement, but until then, the war continues.
18. He does brew and drink coffee, without cream or sweetener.
19. Sweets are no substitute for the taste of Justice
20. Criticism from the upstanding is worth considering. Criticism from the wicked and the vain is arrogant bluster or manipulation
21. He's a religious extremist with provincial preferences

You beat pathfinder by having fun.
So, i was thinking about elven stat bonuses in 5e and they don't make sense.
Personally i think
>Elves should get -2 to STR and CON because they're lanklets
>Elves should get -2 to INT and WIS because they're dumbass forest hippiers
>I don't see Elves being particularly more dexterous than humans, at least in noticeable way, but fine, they can get +1 DEX in the name of balance
>Elves get -2 to CHA because real beauty is manly men and womanly women, not androgynous-looking lanklet shits.
Special rule for elves should be literally their weaponized arrogance - they cannot use ANYTHINg made by other races, but get +1 to hit against them. However, they suffer hefty diplomatic penalty with non-elves.
I think that's fair and accurately represents elves. Your thoughts?
Sad thing that you killed a thread for thia shitpost.

>>50836054
No, i'm serious.
I actually do dislike elves, and not in a /tg/ meme sense, and i want to stop my players from playing them.

Do you think any other classes need a "Revision" like Ranger got?
Hey Phillip
>>50835951
Hello Anon.
First for healthy discussion about characters concepts and fun combinations of abilities.
How anachronistically do your fantasy characters dress?
I don't know. I let the imagination of the other player fill the gaps. Just one detail here and there.
>>50834628
Skimpy outfits that stay in my head
On paper it is normal stuff
>>50834628
Multiple corsets, worn in layers.
>"I wanna be a wizard! I wanna be a mage!"
No.
"Magic" is one of the worst blights inflicted on fantasy in the modern era, right next to anime and video games. It's a series of codified "fuck yous" to the DMs and authorial intent alike. Any stupid shit your player wants to do they justify with "magic." Any unrealistic character shit or stupid weapons (fucking SCYTHES) has them whining for magic. They beg for speshul snowflake races, talking animals, and stupid monsters on the pretense of "magic." And on the flipside, fantasy with actual artistry and historical research put in has them gets shit on as "boring."
I am sick and tired of coddled Millennials expecting that their actions should have no consequences and that they should have a pointy hatted fucker there to throw bombs at all the bad guys and heal their booboos, and being convinced that if they DIE and LOSE THE GAME that they don't have to really really lose because ~its magic~!
I tried introducing my players to this cool historical fantasy campaign I wanted to run last weekend so they could bring their characters this weekend, and they immediately started the usual shit.
>"I want my character to be an elf!"
There are no elves. There are only humans.
>"I want to be a ninja!"
There are no ninjas in Europe.
>"Yeah but there might be!"
It never fucking stops. Now I have to find a whole new group because every shitty ass player nowadays is brainwashed into thinking everything should be like World of Warcraft. Nobody expected to read about a half-demon-half-angel-dual-scythe wielding sparkefairy in Lord of the Rings. It should not be acceptable today either.
There is a MASSIVE gulf nowadays between real fantasy and the unrealistic anime tripe being thrown around, and it's getting harder and harder to find people who aren't blinded by the sparkleys and are receptive to intelligently planned and researched settettings/plots. They think they're entitled to be superheroes instead of part of something bigger.
>>50831438
Stale pasta
>>50831438
Calling anything you don't like "speshul snowflake" is the worst blight to the modern era.

That seems......odd, to say the least.

What is your favorite Lando get rich scheme?
So, can I get a more or less in depth comparison of d6 and FFG?
>>50829657
FFG is more narrative and uses unique dice which might dissuade people from using it
D6 uses more standard mechanics and dice (d6 dice pool as is the norm with WEG games) but it's very old.
FFG comes in 3 flavors (I think they made a TFA beginner box) and they all mesh well together. edge of the empire for smuggler and bounty hunters, Age of Rebellion for
D6's balance issues makes it so pretty much has to be all Jedi or no Jedi.
PDFs for both are in the links above, just look them over and pick the one you like most.
>>50829782
Age of Rebellion for Rebels vs Empire
Force and Destiny for Jedi and Sith
>You can't dodge the attack.
>Tanking the attack will kill you.
How do you survive?
>>50823843
Sacrifice your weapon.
>>50823843
Overpenetration
>>50823843
Whine at the GM until he lets my character survive
/tg/, Is this a man or a woman?
>>50821811
Difficult to say, but from the face and the fact that there is no boob plate, I´d say that that is a man. Not so sure though.
>>50821830
But there's enough room in the chestplate, which is accentuated, to hold boob.
>>50821811
Probably neither, but if it were real it'd lilely be a woman because ofnhip:waist ratio. The shoulders throw you off, but men aren't hourglasses.
Patch is out, see if you boys can play it silky smoothly:
https://steamcommunity.com/games/298900/announcements/detail/549835216474173902
Apothecary is easier to play now. I can squeeze those shot-gun blasts out at top speed since the game can register my individual clicks better.
>>50807623
Sweet, I play apothecary too. Shame one mylaptop'sfans died and I have to wait for a replacement that just doesn't seem to arrive.
>>50805889
Free access codes anyone?
Fuck it, Round 2 edition.
Let's not wait for Saturday yet. I'm feeling that we have a ball rolling, and if it stops rolling, then it's Saturday's turn. Saturday is plan B, not plan A. Especially after that last thread.
How long has it been since a /gdg/ was lost only after bump limit? It's been ages.

Anchoring in case "The Under" fella comes, there were some further ideas of elaborations, especially on the Rock-Paper-Scissors Weapon/Armor system.
>>50793219
You already said it, numbness is quite good, you could also use weariness, they may escape a bit on the the connotation you want, but they are the best I can offer...
>>50793673
Kind of removes a lot of nuances, doesn't it? I'm not opposed to it though; I love gordian knot solutions.

Ability to have a meta thread without it collapsing into /qst/ shitposting in less than 50 posts.
What were they thinking
What were they thinking indeed.
They should've kept these characters. It was a good team.
>>50838557
Who is the artist? He/she made a lot of the 3.5 art and it was mostly shit
Do we have an archive for the LotR tabletop? Or will i finally have to actually buy a book from geedubs?
>>50837912
Bump
>>50837912
What book are you looking for?
>>50838472
The Armybooks, mainly the human one. Oh and the core rulebool certainly wouldnt hurt
Ok fa/tg/uys, I need your help.
I want to run a game that'd be like a mix of Animal House and Dead Poet's Society. A stereotypical early 1960's college hijinx setting. The PCs would all be students.
So what system would work best? Fate is the only one I can think of off the top of my head.
>>50837430
Oh, man I had the same kind of idea a few years ago, but with the players discovering a kind of infinite maze inside their frathouse.
Then exploring the world in the maze, and receiving quests or whatnot from certain professors / deans that knew about this stuff.
Kinda spooky / slapstick comedy rp, was my idea.
>>50837760
Did you have a system in mind?
>>50837760
Damn I wanna do this with OWOD now
