Happy Thanksgiving everyone. This is Mr. Blue Sky, lead (read: only) developer for VeloCITY, the Jet Set Radio-inspired homebrew about shredding asphalt and shredding turntables.

https://1d4chan.org/wiki/VeloCITY

Long time, no see. And boy, do I have an update for you guys.

This is version 1.3, and this is by far the most significant set of changes to the rules ever since the game as we know it was first introduced. After talking with some old players and going through notes, some significant changes were made to the stats used in the game, which has rammification across the entire document. Here's the short version:
>Strength, Agility, Balance and Grit are now known as movement stats and are directly tied and synchronized to their respective core stat (Body, Speed, Mind, and Soul respectively). Upgrading the core stat automatically upgrades the movement stat.
>With the new substat vacancies, there are four new substats to take their place.
>>BODY - Resilience: The damage resistance stat, separate from Stamina
>>BODY - Brawl: The dedicated melee to-hit stat, separate from Coordination
>>SPEED - Stealth: Self-explanatory
>>SPEED - Larceny: Less-than-legal skills, like breaking-and-entering, pickpocketing, sleight-of-hand, etc.

As mentioned, this has rammifications across the entire document, so changes have been made accordingly to accomodate, on top of some additional mechanics clarified and with changed formulas. Changes include natural healing rate, how much energy you can spend, how much Style you can save, and the combat rules, among others. With the new stat line, most of the example characters have been removed, and Tomahawk is the sole sample character again. You'll notice this made the document tiny again, so now I can post it on 4chan directly again.

I apologize for the radio silence for a long time, but I'm glad I could come back to you with something so monumental. Read through the whole thing, let me know what you think, and enjoy!

How could you explain doors re-locking in a fantasy setting, low magic, medieval city. In which an apocalypse has just occured and there would be few survivors?
Keep in mind, the paths and roadways would be blocked off to prevent players from veering off story.
Also consider the city to have a dungeon underground sewer giving access to areas of the city needed to be accessed for plot reasons and no buildings are built above 2-3 stories high -except- old religious / royal or wealthy merchants bricklaid stone and wood mansions, towers, estates and the towns VERY first Tavern/Inn, there since the beginning of the town. Security, military and guard barracks can also be build of stone and are always in specific areas of the city for strategic purposes.
However, consider the guards and military to either be away or destroyed for this scenario.
Now the players have access to chunks of the city and must navigate to the Castle to rescue someone. Ther city being in a mostly destroyed prediciment, requires the players to navigate back and forth through a (cleverly constructed labrynth I designed) maze of crumbling buildings while at the same time they are being assaulted by an unending onslaught of rotting corpses pouring out from Gods know where.
In a sci-fi game I could easily explain how mechanical operated computer controlled locking systems can be hacked, hijacked or rank classsification controlled, open or close, locked or unlocked without player intervention.

But I can't think of a way to do this in a fantasy setting without resorting to magic, (rather not), or mechanism controlled, (can't explain a reason for it).

So now what do I do? Hope the players won't notice or say anything to make me explain why it's happening? Or just ignore the break in logic?

Are there any ancient myths (Greek, Egyptian, etc) about people who were obsessed with improving themselves? Maybe epics or legends.

That's right, I'm not dead. I just forgot that /tg/ existed a little bit.

Okay, lets get started. Halo Mythic has been actively developed for 4 years, now. Today is actually our 4th anniversary of the first beta posted here! We're old.

Now, changes are coming with this current Preview, Preview 25, and the next.

Halo Mythic Preview 25:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/9wcsoblkbmg16wa/Halo+Mythic+Preview+25.zip

With Preview 25, I set out to start simplifying the system without gutting what made Halo Mythic what it was. Easier to use mechanics and slowly evolving the system into something else.

Then I set off to make new tabletop games using 100DOS, but not just 100DOS, but a new updated version of the system completely remade to be easier to use and have the books flow better. These current early beta books are Medieval Europe, Middle Ages Asia, and The American West.

You can find them here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/g75jhq1ola9k783/American+West%2C+Medieval+Europe%2C+Middle+Ages+Asia.zip

Fucking long URLs

With this new cleaned up version of 100DOS in development, I am working towards a better system overall. Once complete, It'll be used to recreate all of Halo mythic to be so much cleaner and easier to use.

That will take time, of course.

Well, with LEL dropping, its worth trying to fire up another thread.

How have your pulls been so far? What are you brewing with new shit? How hype are you for the based Christmas Pricia Promo? Anyone going to nats?

Personally, only bought 3 packs so far, box coming in this week, but pulled FA Manticore, FA Valentinas Reach, and regular Lumia. Value, the packs. Nothing in the set really goes into my main deck(Fairies), though I may jam a couple Lumias Judgement and Blazer in sideboard for Fox hate. Got my invite to nats with the deck as I steamroll Mikage and Val. Im the idiot that took 4th in Charlotte with it. My LGS is doing our post release proxies allowed tournament tonight to test new cards, so Im running infinite Arla Stones combo for shits and giggles. Jamming it in a bunny shell so I can side into Faria lifegain bunnies for the even more retarded combo. Who doesnt love dropping a 13/13 and 4 10/12s for 5 mana?

Playing a stealthy character is worthless. Unless the entire group is adapt at sneaking around, any time you try to use your stealth you will be forced to effectively play a solo mission. No good DM will focus on a single player alone while the rest of the group just sits around doing nothing. And even if you get a shitty DM who allows you to play a solo stealth mission, if you're caught then you're alone behind enemy lines. At that point either you get caught/killed and you're fucked, or the enemy has to be so weak you can singlehandedly take them on (which raises the question why you even bothered to sneak in when the four of you could just take out any resistance).

Any tracking/survival related skill is useless, because finding the enemy is a necessity. It's not a skill, it's a DM's plot device disguised as a skill with a high opportunity cost.

Thoughts?
