Just enough to satisfy the weebish impulses of a few of my players without it disrupting the flow of play or cramping the style of my other players.

How is this possible, you ask? Well you see I play in person, with longtime friends, for fun.

I don't care

In my last campaign I added a bunch of crocodile ronin men that attacked the party with oversized katanas, yari and a handcranked machine gun.

Shit was dope

Seh was beautiful... As beautiful as she was deadly as the stars themselves!

What would you do if you had the ability to summon an army of gnomes that will even fight snakes?

>>50625828
Use them to fight an army of snakes, probably.

40k is a goofy, over the top black comedy. It's always been this, even if GW forgot for a few years and kept screwing things up by trying to take it all way too fucking seriously. Thankfully the silly seems to be back into full swing by now.

Just play monopoly.

But by the power of your holy dubs i will tell you that it might be available on eBay or Amazon. Doesn't hurt to search, anon.

Or just play a normal game of D&D with a winners only rule and you'll be playing a Donald tabletop game in your heart.

>Not using Vlad the fucking Impaler
He's even got a page of shit already made for you. Lancer of Black is the fucking best. He's Arturia levels of power, has a great motivation in wanting to untarnish his legend with all the vampire bullshit, and can turn into fucking Dracula as a noble phantasm.

>>50625425
Fucking this, Vlad is one of the best lancers you could hope for. you could always make up your own guy i guess but if you're going to go with a canon definitely pick Vlad.

>>50625425
>>50625358
Here's a list of his canonical shit. Have fun bro.

PCs are stuck in a car with Asian woman driving

>>50625344
How would you define Asian horror (in terms of how it's different from western horror), so that we know what sort of things to look for

>>50626439
Not OP, but Asian horror tends to have a lot of ghosts, especially ghosts tied to locations and objects.

Personally I reward my players for thinking up strategies instead of just hitting something until it stops moving. In a situation like that I wouldn't just give it to them, though. I'd try to figure out an excuse for their strategy to fail while showing them the real weakness they need to exploit.

If there's a golem whose only weakness is on its back and they come up with an elaborate plan to break off its head then if it succeeds I'd say the golem stumbles or something like that to reveal the huge glowing weakpoint.

Don't give them a victory for jumping to the wrong conclusion, but reward them for their willingness to actually plan.

>>50625129
It depends. Generally speaking, I let the chips fall where they will, but if it's going to lead to something boring then I might adjust things. I adjust things to avoid a TPK when it's my fault as the DM (ie, something was a LOT stronger than I expected or I forgot to tell the party something they should know) but if it's the fault of the party, they can enjoy their deaths (or be smart and retreat).

>>50625129

If you balanced the encounters semi-decently and made it clear to the party they always have the option to set traps, use misdirection, scout ahead of time, or gods forbit- run away- you aren't in the wrong to let them suffer consequences.

Rolled 3, 3, 2, 4, 3, 1, 2, 6, 3, 1, 3, 3, 4, 4, 6, 1, 2, 2 = 53 (18d6)

Honestly, Wikipedia is your friend here.

Dwarfs would be basically everywhere.
Down in their shafts the climate differences would be minimal at best so they wouldn't really care if it's hot up in the air or cold.
Elves depend on your personal flavor of elves, but since central Europe is one those areas that are great for humans to live in, the population density will likely exceed what is comfortable for elves.
Scandinavia is a different matter.

Garuda for indonesia.
Teracotta people for China.
Kappa and Tengu in Japan.
Black people in Africa.
Spiders in Australia.

Tumbleweed benefits from its mobility, but honestly it isn't good for much else. I'm all about that based joshua tree this season.

Honestly I prefer flowering and fruiting trees myself, gotta get that pollinator synergy.

Explain yourselves.

Are you asking how to run an oppressive order of light or how to rebel against one?

How to rebel against one!

Found a counter-order. Sooner or later he's got to realize that 'justice' doesn't hold a candle to JUSTICE!

Gonna bump this and ask my own question.

How does Adeptus Evangelion fare for a oneshot?
I'm looking at the pdf's and it seems like i might be better off with a different system for just one session.

>>50624264
>might be better off with a different system

The general consensus seems to be that CthulhuTech is a cool setting that suffers from a bad system -- some say terrible. I've seen it compared to Rifts in that regard.

>>50624352
That doesn't answer my question.
