HERE HAVE SOME DREADNAUGHT BBC

Saga is to 4e what D20 revised was to 3.5, so you tell me.

It's definitely different but if you've played enough it's not that difficult to adjust

It's 3.5 with a Star Wars paint job. Much more complicated than 5e. Try one of the FFG Star Wars RPGs instead.

A complete reworking of their genetic makeup, so that the spores their bodies produce would no longer grow into Orkz.

Otherwise, it doesn't matter how big their revolution gets; sooner or later an Ork is going to spawn and start bossing the Grotz around.

What do you even need a laser for?

>>50647634
Line of sight.

>>50647412
>or ones that have a diffuse spectrum so you don't just get the entire laser's energy at one wavelength?

Aren't those just flashlights?

>What is your ideal four person party composition?

Big meaty tank, suave asshole with a silver-tongue, the dork with huge tits and a huge spellbook and the anal-retentive cleric.

Cleric is actually an apostate, the tank is banging the dork and the suave asshole's running away from an arranged marriage.

Fuck you and fuck your bullshit. You're half the reason for /pfg/' terrible rep. Delete that image. Now.

>>50645950
DO IT.

Best case scenario: Sappy re-connecting with your father over a shared hobby ending.

Worst Case scenario: he says no or you don't enjoy it and go back to where you are now.

>>50646013
Should we do a DM+1 player campaign or should I get someone to play with us ?

>>50646013
The actual worst case scenario is his dad making it an erp and refusing to fade to black, though.

Then again what do I know, maybe your dad is hot.

That's no way to build a world unless you want a totally random world that just lives off its comedic effect.

>>50645929
I dunno. Obviously it's not all the questions you need to answer or even the most pertinent ones, but it does help you focus in on things that might be significant or interesting.

Rather than just saying "it sucks" how about suggesting alternatives?

>>50645849
Here's a quick one I did of an older setting of mine.
>1. What is strange about the world's geography/cosmology?
The world is populated with the undead, rising from their graves after an indeterminable amount of time. They lose their memories with the resurrection, but retain echoes of skills they had. The physical condition of their bodies does nothing to impede or change this process, except for reviving them in stranger and more monstrous ways. This effect is especially prevalent in the western hemisphere, and on the western continent of the Waste.

>2. Why did the last war start?
The most recent official war was some fifty years back, the latest in a repeated attempt from the eastern capital of Sunholme to conquer the no mans land that is the Waste. It failed, but there are still a major group of deserters and fanatics carrying on their efforts.

>3. What is a common thing in our real life world which is a prized treasure here?
Living animals, especially scavengers. Most of these get fucked over when they eat a corpse and then have it reanimate in their stomach and pull them into the ensuing new undead.

>4. What is this world's particular way to solve disputes?
East of Sunholme, conflict is settled through barbed and brutal diplomacy, with high intrigue and courtly drama being prevalent. In the west, it's settled primarily with gunpowder and iron.

Continued in the next post.

Appreciate it.
Let this slide or mods can delete.

>I'm not going to be competitive, hopefully just find a small group to play casually with.
Are you a fluff-player?

Have you considered GURPS?

You might also want to try PbtA

FATE is a bit crunchy and narrativist; as in, the players have many tools to control the narrative beyond the capabilities of their characters. It takes some time for the people playing to get used to how aspects work, invokes/compels/etc. but it's smooth sailing from there. You are probably best off looking into one of the systems that are based on FATE but advanced it a bit, like Atomic Robo. There's also FAE (FATE Accelerated), which is a bit simpler, which I quite like but needs a bit of tinkering with its approaches.

SW is mostly trying to be a medium crunch system that's fast and fun to play. It's a bit random (which is a source of fun for some, admittedly). Combat relies a lot on getting raises/not getting hit with raises, and your fate point equivalent (bennies) acts as your secondary HP, which means that the GM handing them out at the correct pace is kinda really important.

I have no experience with Cinematic Unisystem.

I have one more generic game to add to the pile; if your group likes tactical combat games, Strike! is a really simple universal system with a lot of focus on that. Out of combat it's sorta FATE-lite. I like it a lot and am probably going to run a game in it next week.

>Meaning they lose levels the more they stay there.
Your players are going to punch you in the face.

>>50645281
While it is a fun gimmick, in terms of rules and mechanics yout players would just be getting access to fewer and fewer abilities, and losing their best ones all the time.
Which might be more frustrating than fun.

>>50645281
The planet is full of memory loss drugs; in the air, in the water, in the soil. You gradually forget all your experiences. It is a planet of Lotus Eaters, stuck there because they forgot they could leave.

The BBEG is immune to the drugs. He was banished to the planet for some horrible crime, but became immune to its effect. BBEG wants to get off the planet, and propagate the drugs to make the galaxy forget his original crime.

The PCs are the only ones that can... wait, what were they doing here again? Oh, right, a sandbox campaign...

>>50645242
Isn't the purpose of modules to deal with all the system-specific stuff that would take forever to prepare otherwise?
What use would a system agnostic module be?

>>50645828
I didn't know actual plots and scenarios were apparently worthless.

>>50646168
Just plots and scenarios do not a module make.
Not to mention that suitable plots and scenarios vary wildly from system to system.
