Hey /tg/,

today I faced a deck that used SBSurgical Extraction to hate on combo cards. I use 2 Mirrodin Mesmeric Orbs with black border and 2 Salvat collection Mesmeric Orbs in Spanish with white border. Long story short, one of the black border ones ended in the graveyard and my opponent targeted it with Surgical Extraction. It resolved and he checked my hand, and there was another black bordered one in there, so he kept it aside. I told him I was going to check his graveyard because I wanted to check the number of fetches he played. Shortly after, he told me to shuffle my deck as he set aside the exiled Orbs.

I didn't know if he purposefully left the remaining, white border orbs there, so I paid no mind and gave him back his graveyard and he passed his turn. Shortly after, I drew a white bordered Orb and played it. That was the moment all hell broke loose.

Basically, he started screaming for the judge and insulting me because I cheated. I hate conflicts, so I told him if he thinks I really fucked up, I would concede this game and go for the next one. But then the judge told him he should have checked for every copy of the card he wanted to exile thoroughly and announced the match could continue normally. My opponent refused to keep playing and soon the entire store was siding either with me/the judge or my opponent.

Paying no attention to rules, what is the proper etiquette in this kind of situations? What is rule respect and what is being a major dick?
I already stopped going to a store because many players played sloppily and many there were many tense situations, but never something that a judge couldn't solve.

you technically played correctly, as surgical extraction's "any" clause gives you a free pass but fuck me if that isn't a dick move. It really depends on the competitive REL. If this was casual this is a dick move. If this was comp, you might be forced to switch your salvat cards with something else in deck check.

>>50185210
He is an idiot and if this was a tournament you were literally playing by the rules and he screwed himself up.
You're not required to help your opponent beat you. And you did not cheat.
>>
>>50185266

I was checking his graveyard thinking about the cards remaining in his deck when he exiled the cards, I wasn't really paying attention there. I'm usually very talkative when announcing my plays and it is common for people at the store to ask permission to check things twice so they don't fuck up, so I guess I dropped the ball not telling him at least to check twice. I feel kinda bad now.

I'm thinking of writing and designing a toned down, basic "D&D-clone" set in a VERY simplistic fantasy setting, for my normie friends to enjoy alongside me.

What are your thoughts? What should I focus on, specifically?

Well, first off, before you reinvent the wheel, have you checked any OSR games yet? They usually have a general up.
>>
>>50183202
Yeah, I have. But I just feel as if I were to design something basic, it'd be easier for myself to teach to those around me, as opposed to changing someone else's words into something that my friends can understand.

I have plenty of free time on my hands, and occupy myself with hobbies 24/7, so reinventing the wheel isn't a bother.

Space Marines obviously. You can't take away Slugga's booze and expect him to fight at maximum efficiency. That's like taking away Popeye's spinach and then telling him to lift an Aircraft Carrier.

Has anyone had a chance to look at this? As a Tolkien enthusiast I've considered picking up The One Ring but with this out I figure it may actually see some play time at the table for my D&D-focused group.

Seriously senpai, if you want to do a LotR campaign, why not use the purpose built One Ring?

>>50182857
The sole existence game is literally proof how cancerous deeendee is.
>purpose build middle earth game finely crafted, perfectly catches the spirit of tolkien's works
>but it's not d&d so it hasn't the cheatcode of "le brand recognition based. undeserved popularity" and remains painfully niche
>ultimately the creators decide that it's time to just make d&d reskin based on that to make it sell,because retarded plebs won't play anything without d20 label and actual quality has nothing to say in this matter
This is why it is so hard to have nice things on TTRPG market
>>
>>50184317
I think that the issue here is with licenses. Cubicle7 already has the license for LotR RPGs, and the OGL means they could make a quick buck with this. I don't think the authors, as in the actual creative people, behind The One Ring, are very involved in this reskin.
That said, I agree with you. We're going to get through OGL Glut 2: Electric Boogaloo, with d20 Anything. The only consolation is that the market is very different from the early 2000s.

Here is one of mine. (Low magic setting)

The settings Empire is mostly run as a service based patriarchal republic with a constitution.

They have an immortal Emperor, but other then not aging he is just a normal human with lots of job experience. He actually serves mostly akin to a supreme court justice and ceremonial position. Unless martial law has be declared, then he assumes full dictatorship powers until the crisis is solved or averted.

Day to day governance is done by the Senate and Council.

The Senate are the elected representatives from each region (There are 138 regions.). They are tasked with legislation, revenue, and diplomacy.

The Council is charged with infrastructure and defense. They are the military and divided in three parts.
1. The Engineer Corps. They cover digging ditches to communications. Building things and demo works.
2. The Legion. The soldiers and general army.
3. The Navy. The boats.
Each head of these branches has a seat on the Council, as well a a rep from the Senate (who also acts as a tie breaker in the Senate), the leader of the Inquisition (general spy stuff), and a rep chosen by popular vote by the citizens (as in the entire empire) every 5 years.

Citizenship is an earned right by way of military service. Everyone is born a subject and military service is voluntary.

Culturally VERY patriarchal, women are viewed as breading livestock and property. Marriage isn't a thing and no such thing as an illegitimate child. All male children receive a free education in reading/writing and basic math. Roman era tech with some newly invented steam engine tech.

Elven "Government" in my setting is pretty much relegated to family heads calling the shots.

Elven society goes on about their "Elders" in public, but there are actually two elven words for ruler in elven that aren't casual insults.

"Grandmother" and "Grandfather." The elven word for "King" is actually a slur that literally means "Bastard-Father."

Any gathering of elves large enough to consider a political power is pretty much guaranteed to be a family, usually a bloodline thousands of years old, and because an Elf won't die of old age, Grandmother's and Grandfather's are every bit as sharp as they were when they came to the head of the family. Power doesn't change hands very often, usually following a great crisis, though most families that lose their grandfather or grandmother this way fall apart. It functions fairly simply on paper: A male elf serves the will of his forefathers, and a female serves her foremother, the only real exception to this being the Drow, who are exclusively matriarchal but not all that different in the long run.

The reason Elven society is fading actually has very little to do with the expansion of humanity or the regression of nature or "Magic leaving the world" (which is utter nonsense), and a great deal to do with the fact that, after millennia of (at best) borderline inbreeding, Elven pregnancies are highly prone to birth defects and immunodeficiency. Half-elves are actually incredibly healthy, vital individuals, but are unanimously sorted to the far branches of the family as bastards or "mutts".

As it stands, the only reason the elves endure is because of their longevity. The consequences of their breeding and societal norms have taken so long to come about because Elves smply don't experience generational progression like humans or dwarves.

Oh shit, /tg/! While going about your usual magecraft, you got conscripted by a mysterious organization into fighting in the next Grail War! You've got to win the Grail for them, or else they're gonna off you. Luckily for you, they've promised to search for whatever artifact you need to summon the Heroic Spirit you want, as long as it's nothing too difficult to acquire. This rules out some of the more powerful Heroic Spirits, but you'll have to make do. While keeping your compatibility in mind, who do you summon, and what's your strategy to win the Grail War?

I summon this guy, Rider.
Using animal control for mobility and intelligence, we shall out pace and out flank the enemy. Combined with the staying power intrinsic to someone who survived the literal wrath of god, and the ability to retreat to sea if things get hairy, we should be able to stick around until the heavy hitters have exhausted each other.
Then, we drop a big boat on the guy left standing.

Machiavelli

Most grail war participants appear to be retarded, so I can just let the M man play le tricky tricks and set them against each other.

As there servants are fighting eachother, kill the masters with an IED or a dirty nuke or something. depends on the prep time I have I guess, I would think that a mage can get his hands on some pretty intense hardware.

Why does wizards try to pretend they dont pander to speculators and then prove time and time again that they do.

It's garbage and you sound like you're twelve.

Are there any good tabletop strategies, that are not a boxed game? I.E. with map that can be had-drawn or altogether optional, without any cards, and with proper resource gathering, building building, unit hiring, etc?

Sorta like strategy created like an RPG, not like a typical boxed game.
