So a pair of prominent Japanese game stores (BigMagic and Hareruya) are going to experiment with a new Magic format: "Frontier", where only card printed in standard sets post M15 will be legal (i.e. cards w/ the new border and font)
what are your thoughts on this new format? do you think it has potential?

I was thinking about starting this up in my play group, as we either play casual or commander, just so it has a more equal playing field.
I would DEFINATELY get into it if my friends will.

What's to stop the format from devolving into Rhinos and Co.?

For those who aren't caught up.
A store in Japan has funded a massive tournament to try out a new eternal format called "Frontier". This format involves cards from M15 onwards, and will essentially be a "Fixed" modern.
This thread is for Brews, discussions and theories. Will this catch on? Would you be willing to try it out as a new format?

For those who are unaware, Frontier Legal sets at this point would be:
M15
Khans of Tarkir
Fate Reforged
Dragons of Tarkir
Magic Origins
Battle For Zendikar
Oath of the Gatewatch
Shadows Over Innistrad
Eldritch Moon
Kaladesh
Other things to note:
>Allied fetch lands are legal.
>Chord of Calling is legal.
>Enemy fast lands have just been printed.
>Battle lands are fetchable
>Eldrazi are playable without Eye of Ugin/Eldrazi temple.

Seems to me like they were already fixed. I think the process involve a typical dagger type knife, heated in a hot fire, if that helps anon.

Yes, in what was probably the longest Myfarog campaign ever run outside of Vargs house. Over the course of several months we went from our teens to our twenties. Our wives (two players chose two get married, mother died in childbirth and had to reroll, kek) had produced children for us after a time skip.
It was interesting and most of us took it seriously, particularly the player who died in childbirth and assumed the role of that characters brother, playing uncle. BBEG dragon came back for the final fight and most of us lost them, bretty sad.

Yes. We didn't know for sure that she was the result of an extramarital fling, but when she died it became clear. I broke all of te aasimar paladin's limbs and handed him to a contract devil to be moulded into an antipaladin in exchange for her soul back. Now she's a ghost thing.
I was a terrible parent, and ripping her soul from the clutches of whatever outer evil has claimed us in the afterlife to exist immune to harm is the least I could do.

How is the system anyways? Always liked the idea of a game with mechanics for family-building and an Iron Age theme.

They share a setting? That's usually enough to get the yuri shipping going (though even that is not actually required).

We have officially started the sign ups for the /tg/ FUMBBL League Season 5!
Apply with a fresh team to the group below (if you don't already have one in the group) and PM MauledByTheTigers stating what team you are entering into the new season and whether they are joining Rookies (if eligible) or Veterans.
Deadline for signups is next Saturday night (Yurop time zones)! Furthermore, make sure you are active on FUMBBL (meaning you've visited the page and signed into your account) at least once in the three days prior to that date! We are trying to cut down on dead starts for the first round.

Has anyone ever managed to make Halflings and Gnomes distinct enough from each other to justify them being two entirely separate races that both occupy a "Core Race" spot?

In an effort to make the fantasy races more distinct, I've decided to assign new reproductive systems to them. Humans will continue to breed as humans do, but Elves, Dwarves, and Goblins will now breed in manners totally unlike that of humans.

Unless these breeding methods result in significant social and/or behavioural change then who cares?

How extreme do you intend to go with that though? Are you talking elves laying eggs or growing on trees or what?

>If a Dwarf wishes for an offspring, then they must carve a statue of a Dwarven child out of their preferred material

>For when the carving is done, the first thing the parent(s) say will be the new Dwarfling's name, and the formerly inanimate statue will become a new child
Kinda imagining DF's Fey Mood mixed with golems for this one. Thoughts?

D&D 4e General /4eg/
How much do you bother optimizing for noncombat benefits in 4e? Do you ever try to aim for tricks such as Bard of All Trades, Arcana optimization, Diplomacy/Courtier, Bluff/Spy as a changeling or a hengeyokai, or Streetwise/Secrets of the City? What of investing in rituals via the Dragon #405 heroic tier ritual feats?
If you are GMing, remember...
1. To strongly consider giving out at least one free "tax feat," like Expertise and pre-errata Melee Training.
2. To use Monster Manual 3/Monster Vault/Monster Vault: Nentir Vale/Dark Sun Creature Catalog math. Avoid or manually update anything with Monster Manual 1 or 2 math.
3. That skill challenges have always been scene-framing devices for the GM, that players should never be overtly told that they are in a skill challenge, and that the Rules Compendium has the most up-to-date skill DCs and skill challenge rules.
If you would like assistance with character optimization, remember to tell us what the what the rest of the players are playing, what books are allowed, your starting level, the highest level you expect to reach, what free feats you receive, if anything is banned, whether or not themes are allowed, your starting equipment, and how much you dislike item-dependent builds.
If you wish to talk about settings, 4e's settings are Points of Light (the planes and the natural world's past empires are heavily detailed in various sourcebooks and magazines), 4e Forgotten Realms, 4e Eberron, 4e Dark Sun, and whatever setting you would like to bring into 4e.

I do what I can--kits and tools, skills, rituals or martial practices, within the bounds of class and race already chosen. I won't try for things like astronomical levels of Bluff unless I have a character in mind that needs it--in other words, not every rogue I make will need to have all the same tricks from Thievery and/or Streetwise and/or whatever.

When is it worth it to put Rhythm Blade on a parrying dagger (and spend the feat slot for proficiency in it)?
>>
>>49515658
Ye Olde Most Annoying Rogue Ever build uses an offhand rhythm blade parrying dagger (feat obtained via Gritty Sergeant background). That's one specific case where it works. Was curious if there were any others.
What's your go to dice set?
