Still plugging away at the unnamed Only War style game.

Got planes, default squadron types, and a good chunk of the ground work laid out. Need a bit of help coming up with some talents, skills, and some possible upgrades.

Any input is appreciated.

Apples to Apples or Cards Against Humanity could work, for the students who have the knowledge of grammar and sentence structure to recognize when a phrase is intentionally nonsensical.

>>50505820
CAH is very obscene though, isn't it? At least from my experience, it's not something I'd want to expose them to. Or are there packs I can get that are more family friendly?

>>50505901
No, Just Pretend It's XXYYZZ, the online version, is very obscene. The board game version is much tamer.

Jumpers!

Just how patient are you? Do you suffer fools long or do you not have time for their shit? Tell me your tales of when you were you the calm and of when you were the storm.

Which one do you pick and how do you solve it? No you can't choose both.

>>50505663
Both. There is nothing robots cant solve

This movie becomes really good when you understand that they're actually a tabletop game party playing out an uninteresting scenario.

Come here to say this

>>50504798
Oh for fucks sake putting this at the top is nearly as bad as the kitsuneposting.

Yeah. Force as an only supernatural type damage flat doesn't make sense.

>>50504824
but force is literally pure magic.

Its not actual concussive force as we think of it, thats covered by the various damage types of Bludgeoning, Slashing, and Piercing.

Oncologist with second degree in psychology. In his 30's. Very organized and his characters always feel live, giving them unique motivations and believable personality. The only person I've seen to successfully roleplay a child PC without turning creepy or cringey.

For some reason when we're deciding on a system he's always leaving towards D&D, must be job conditioning.

Two players, and another before that, who happened to see me talk about my Mutants and Masterminds 3e game in a Discord chat joined in and saved it. It was about to be subject to termination due to my IRL friends being unreliable as fuck. The two newest players even drew their own character designs, one of them seen here.

They also manage to roleplay morally ambiguous characters that are entertaining rather than completely obnoxious.

I see what you did there

Also, have some cyberpunk for your viewing pleasure.

Maid RPG

>>50504005
GURPS
Im technically running that right now. TL5, but my group has less superpowers.

>>50504005
Savage Worlds. It's made for pulpy shit.

Then again, Fate could work too.

Or even something else, depending on your priorities.

>>50503811
Why so cynical? Honestly this is the easiest thing relative to the payoff. We trawl various sources for 3d models of 40k, convert them to a suitable model, for both printing and the program, then stick them all in an Archive. from there it's a matter of the community using them.

>>50503730
>40k model Archive
>Virtual Tabletop that doesn't look like shit.

So, is this how it happens? Do we finally fuck over GeeDubs by making the game cheaper than they could ever hope to make it?

>>50503697
>depends on the setting
but sure why not, GURPS can do anything

>>50503697
I prefer AI NPCs that are tsundere for the meatbag PCs.

>>50503697
Most fictional AIs are just more powerful humans.

But yeah, you can add computer-flavored powers and interactions to PCs. Provided you didn't mean 'Personal Computers', right Anon?

Your idea is stupid and should be dropkicked to the curb at the soonest convenient opportunity.

I start applying their NPC racial traits from the DMG to higher-CR NPC stat blocks in the MM and VGM.

Which of these seems more promising for a Water Domain Channel Divinity?
Channel Divinity: Invigorating Waters
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to safeguard yourself and your allies.
As an action, you present your holy symbol and summon a barrier of magical water over a number of creatures within 30 feet up to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of one creature). These creatures gain temporary hit points equal to two times your cleric level. A creature protected by the barrier’s speed increases by 10 feet. The barrier lasts as for an hour, or until the temporary hit points it grants are depleted.
OR Channel Divinity: Churning Waves
Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to tip your enemies’ balance.
As an action, you hold your holy symbol aloft and summon the force of a rushing river or crashing wave. Any hostile creatures within 30 feet of you must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If any of these creatures attempts to move more than 5 feet on their next turn, they must make the saving throw again or fall prone and lose their remaining movement.

>>50502104
I have yet to use Disarming Attack to actually dis-arm an enemy, but
Last session we were fighting a giant and I just wanted to apply the Blind condition. It was prone and Slowed, so I could reach its eyes, and I whipped out my pot of ink and tried smashing it in the giant's face. I figured it'd be 1d4+Str and maybe Blind, cool, mission accomplished.
>DM: wait, let me look up the damage for that
>Me: improvised weapons are just 1d4
>DM: there's another chart... here
>DM: give me 2d10
>mfw this giant is now rolling around (slowly) with ink and broken glass in his eyes and a jackass Warlock screaming rude things in its mind, utterly incapacitated

A single Xeelee nightfighter could probably solo all of 40k

>>50502090
I haven't heard of this, can you tell me some about the universe?

>>50502022
The first rule of 40k vs is: kill yourself, mongrel.

>>50501551
this is pretty unique, but I'm not sure how one would use it in a system without the players immediately ignoring it.

>>50501978
Me neither actually. It's mostly been tinkering for fun. I doubt I would actually use it for real so to say.

They would probably use something similar to arabic or roman numerals. Counting begins by counting fingers in some fashion after all, so number systems almost always reflect that.

If I recall there was one tribe that counted the spaces between fingers though giving them a base 8 system which was quite interesting.
