In my setting I want the giants and humans to have a trade relationship. The only thing is I can't think of a commodity humans could offer a giant that a giant couldn't do themselves. What are some things smaller races could do or offer that giants couldn't do or would find hard to get?

Anyone have any experience with HERO? I've heard it's okay, if a bit overly crunchy. I'm a gurps player so I don't mind crunch, but I'd like to know if it's worth learning

It isn't worth learning. You already know GURPS.

you realize that people sometimes pick up other games for the sake variety? even if there was one single best system (and if there was it wouldnt be GURPS), people still would play inferior systems just because they're different.

PCP is what you get at character creation to put into the differant categories in the little table which will then tell you how much arc that translate into for stats, prof or whatever.

Oh and arc is also exp, PCP are just for character creation.

How would a Chapter Compromised of Scouts function?

>>55038217
They're the Discount Marines, since the Carapace armor is much cheaper and shittier than real power armor.

They're used for low budget spinoff chapters who never had a full deck of equipment to use and can't get the AdMech to take them seriously.
>>
>>55038217
scouts dont count towards 1000 marine limit, so they can field legion amounts of scouts in their army if they have the time and effort to gathering enough applicants

So why are they one of the 10 companies of 100 marines?

Putting together a list of mental illnesses characters can have that effect their abilities both positively and negatively. Here's a few examples.

Anorexia: You can fit into tight spaces.

Autism: Charisma counts as its lowest possibility, but intelligence is boosted.


Dyslexia: Cannot read.

ADD: Every wisdom check is rolled with disadvantage.

What is your favorite wound system? How do you like your wounds? How severe should they be?

Do you prefer wounds that can be shrugged off after some time? Or ones that slowly stack up and debilitate characters?

>>55037901
Legends of the Wulin has a good system, conditions which characters gain in combat provide fictional triggers for bonuses/penalties to actions. It works well in that system as a way of keeping the combat interesting, they tend to go away out of combat fairly easily though.

Dogs in the Vineyard has something similar. A conflict can change your character's stats, traits or relationships. On a nonviolent conflict this will be very short term, but from a fight, this could be a long term change or possibly permanent.
>>
>>55037901
GURPS does it well

Basic man has 10 hp.
Any hit that slaps you for 1/2 hp or more risks a major wound
You roll against your HT to resist
GM's discretion, but likely candidates are broken bones, extreme recurring pain, and the need for surgeries to remove the maladies.
Very self sufficient/internally consistent application of a rule. It applies to shooting people or blowing up buildings or starship collisions.
>>
>>55037901
I've never seen a system that works well for wounds. IMO it's far better to leave it as a matter of narrative agency, inflicting wounds with blows that require a little extra gravitas, instead of codifying it in a rule system that your players will inevitably attempt to exploit.

For you, at what point does the integrity of the setting and world outweigh the player's desire to play a certain race,have a certain background,etc.?
87 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
...zero? I don't know what the fuck you're imagining the scale as so it's hard to answer, but I'd literally never let a player play something that doesn't exist in the setting or isn't a PC option. I would get rid of that kind of player.

Mind you, if it were a good player who just made a suggestion I would just explain why it doesn't work and we'd move right along, but we all know the kind of player I'm talking about.

>when is it ok to try and play some retarded anime weeb shit in your game?
Never. Death to furfags.
I also play low fantasy humanocentric games for a reason, it very much limits weeb faggotry at my table.

As long as the player's agency does not compromise the very foundation of the setting.
You can play a noble or the member of a Kightly order, but i decide what happened to this order and/or noble family.
You can play a cleric of war, but you cannot create your own divinity, etc.

You can also play a lawful good undead in a setting where all undead are naturally evil, but unless you give me a GOOD explanation, i will decide how and when you came to be, and i might not even tell you
