I bought 2 of the last edition for £60 each then resold them both sealed for £100 at christmas on ebay.
When I was young I saw the original boxed game for £10 pounds a box in a shop on the coast. It probably inflated in price more than gold since then.

>>50454113
>this time
I bought it the first time around. Just the tiles/counters/rules, though. I split the cost with someone who wanted the models.

>>50454113
Ahh, the good old boardgame that went too far.

Well, I guess I forgot the question, so:
What could happen from an union of a raven and a leshy cadaver? Should I turn it into something fearsome or, maybe, add wings to the leshy once it's reborn as a good spirit?

What game is this?

>>50453887
As it rise a new with the benign spirit with in it, the evil that once claimed it now escapes with a caw with in the reanimated corpse of the crow.

any specific reason why?

>>50452326
It's my go to system for FPS games. For some reason, it feels fitting (probably all the guns).

Also, one of the settings is about Victorian monster hunting with weird science.

This is technically for a vidya, but it could in theory be played on tabletop and this particular slice of the mechanics looks very like a wargame/miniature game so I figured /tg/ would know best what to say about it
>center arrow indicates where the character is (large dot) and what direction they're facing (arrowhead); for convenience, the position/facing is always the same, but a different facing yields the "same" threat distribution rotated appropriately
>medium-sized dark (but not black) dots indicate where in the field a particular weapon type can center its attack; a line connected to a tiny dot indicates that the attack targets both endpoints simultaneously
>lighter-grey dots/lines indicate what cells are targeted by melee-range special attacks using this weapon- as a general rule, the special attack footprint is three times the footprint of a regular attack
>small red and cyan dots indicate, for the one-handed weapons, what square may be protected by a shield in the off-hand; the red dot indicates where a right-handed shield-user (that is, whose off-hand is the left hand) places their shield, the cyan dot indicates where a left-handed shield-user places their shield
>any hex threatened by an enemy weapon is harder to hit from
>a line of attack that intersects a hex affected by an enemy shield is more likely to miss
>attacks from behind are more likely to hit in general, with the line opposite the facing being the best direction from which to attack

I'm pondering over how to weight the damage output of these weapon types (these nine are not exhaustive, fyi); probably the blue and red extended-reach weapon types are the most flexible, and should therefore do the least damage, but I'm not sure how to calculate that kind of advantage? And some weapon types may be restricted by class, which would also limit their broken-ness without necessarily impacting damage output.

>>50451621
I just came up with one in the caster thread:

You only gain experience or new abilities by electing to take risks to prototype them in combat.

Thus you can take the safe guarantee, or go wild with creativity.

>>50451648
Hmm, that sounds like it'd work best if new abilities were pretty loosely arbitrated? like if the GM was expected to vet new abilities on a case-by-case basis. else you'd have a really hard time outlining how new abilities are to be weighted/vetted without severely restricting the creativity of the player... or making taking new options in combat super slow to resolve. but for a more relaxed/easy-going gamestyle that'd be pretty cool!

Each one would actually be a polymorphed woman.

Makes the bathhouse, dairy, and homunculus growing chambers much more efficient.

Donjon has a cyberpunk job generator (Science Fiction > Random Generator > Cyberpunk Jobs) that you could use; just file off the megacorp names.

Do a midnight HALO jump into Raqqa to capture (not kill) Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS. He is in possession of a magic artefact that increases the savagery and bestial natures of everyone within 10 Km of it. Every drop of blood spilled near it increases its power.

Can the PCs resist the allure of the blood idol and avoid killing their target...and themselves?

>>50450900
Since you're using GURPS, have you checked books like Covert Ops, Black Ops and Illuminati? IIRC they have a bunch of adventure seeds/missions you could re-use.

Fought to secure a relic from the opposing kingdom to prevent the summoning a demon lord. We failed.

Question: is there any way to change your init mod in PoW? I wanted my dhamphir crimson count to be a suave smooth talking vampire lord wannabe, but harbinger is an Int class

Whoops, posted this as the last thread died:

Can someone check whether I understand how attacks work when you stack Roil Dancer and Avant Guard/Slow Burn, when you use a multi-attack strike?

Say you're level 9 and you use a strike that allows three attacks, and you have a burn reduction of 1. You have a max limit of three burn per round but I don't know if Slow Burn removes that.

Whip usually costs 2 burn, but kinetic blademaster discounts it by 1, and your slow burn discounts it by 1, making it cost 0.
Kinetic Blademaster then lets you make three different whips with a 0 burn blast, all for free, and attack one after another without using Ignition Surge or worrying about max burn per round limits.

Then, say you want to use your 2 burn composite blast with the above.
For your first attack you can use Fight Fire with Fire with 4 animus to reduce the cost to 0 again, but because this counts as accepting 2 burn, you can't do this with the following attacks, since your burn per round is 3.

Is that right?
Stacking these archetypes is such a wild ride.

>>50449978
Depends on the GM. For changing it to Cha, some Do It For Free(tm), but the "official" way is the daring hero PrC. Which is a shit solution for many, since you need level 6 before it takes effect.

>>50449889
Anon.
You DMed a campaign for two years and don't have any plot thread to finish on? Not a ingle unresolved hook? No overarching BBEG?

What the everloving fuck were you doing all this time?

>>50449889
It might be a bit late to reveal a big twist. Good luck. Look back to what the players have accomplished / failed to accomplish. Try to draw lines back to as many of their actions as possible.

>>50449915
Well to be honest, I just got a new job, so I cant run anymore, had at least 6 more months of plot to progress through.

Just trying to end it the best I can at this point.

>>50449728
Not only is Malal non canon, but you're giving him attributes he never had.

>>50449728

>won while not even existing

anon what

If he would exist but ceased due to him being destroyed by other gods, then maybe. what you're saying is illogical to put it politely.

>>50449770
>>50449751
Okay, let me explain XD
First, I know he is not cannon I wasnt implying GW purposely did this
Second, he doesnt exist because he got retconned by GW due to copyright issues (I think that was the case at least), but funilly enough his whole plot was about inexitance and sensless destruction, wich makes the fact he got retconned funny (IMO)
So I was just trying to point out how is funny that the only chaos god that really won something with the end of times was the inexistant god of inexistance

>>50449680
If I play a spell that has you sac a creature as part of the cost and that creature has a "if ~this~ dies do x" ability, wich do I do first? Does the spell resolve first and than the trigger or the other way around?

>>50449794
The first step of casting a spell is to announce it and put it onto the stack. Paying all your costs in the order of your choosing (including the sacrifice, in this case) is the last step before the spell is considered "cast" in full. So, the death trigger would fire during the process of casting your spell (which is already on the stack), and go onto the stack once you're done casting it.

So your "When ~ dies, X" trigger is on the stack ABOVE your spell, and will resolve first.

>>50449812
Right, thanks.

They won't get more attention if they are contained in one thread the whole time.

Glorantha is an awesome setting

HeroQuest is shit. Utter, utter, shit. RuneQuest forever!

>>50449972
Didn't play it yet (too busy with TOR) and I don't think I'll play it anytime soon (players around are lazy cunts that won't read the fucking rulebook, ever, just have to have everything explained by the GM, and HeroQuest isn't a game that would work with players relying only on DM to handle mechanics) but I kind of like how it's mechanics are designed towards story crafting, while using simple, standard dice and not that much meta, as opposed to FATE. I like RQ too, though. But for some reason I'd rather play it as an universal system and handle Glorantha with HQ. I don't even know why, I just feel that way.

>>50449303
I wish to know this, too.

Are you implying that "Online roleplaying forums" don't exist, on an online roleplaying forum?
