Why do you think wars are always followed by such huge setting changes, such as technological progress?

Well YGO doesn't establish the lore of its characters so there's no real answer. Also I'm just assuming that's YGO because of the art.

Reloaded works on Savage Worlds, and is a pretty sleak system.
Meaning some bits and bobs have been slimmed down you might want in their original glory, but it also flows much more easily.

Reloading and fanning are stupidly powerful in reload, because of the reload speed for guns.
If you can handle the mali, you can easily out-shoot a gatling gun while fanning.

But all in all I prefer Reloaded.

>>49421533
I second Reloaded.
Once you get the hang of it you can try out some of the many, many Savage Worlds products if they suit your settings taste.

Are any of the older splats worth buying? like North and South. Also, how fun is hucksters? I want to roll an india indian/oriental mystic

I've always wondered if people who played Pendragon were real

I've wanted to play Pendragon for years, but I never found anyone to play it with. ;_;

Some Anons from the Game Finder thread once took pity on me since I was asking for Pendragon there pretty much every time and were going to host a campaign, but that never materiaised. I should try GMing one when my PC is fixed, perhaps.

How long does it even take to run? Isn't iy supposed to be fucking years long?

Because he's just one of many named characters among hundreds that took part in the Heresy. Nobody gives a fuck about Saul Tarvitz when there's Kharn, Loken, Garro, Abaddon, Argel Tal and dozen others.

>>49420913
literally who

>>49420913
Is he? He's one of my favorites from the Horus Heresy.

You forgot shadowy transnational conspiracies.

Also the answer is probably social media.

Modern cavalry can be anything from planes to tanks to armored transports.

>>49419298
I'm pretty sure the premodern equivalent of the navy was the navy.

What about Spearmen?

as far as a starting objective goes i was thinking the samurais grandfather "retired adventurer" willed a estate he owns in a neighboring country to him because the first born would be inheriting the family title and most of the family's wealth. his grandfather had one request written into the will should Tin choose to accept and travel to the land, Upon arriving to the estate and presenting proof of ownership to the local Lord/State/Kingdom or whatever it may be he is to retrieve a very important item from the house and... thats all i have so far.

i am very open to suggestions and changing the objective entirely. i thought it would be cool to have the party work their way through to the other side of the country and be rewarded with a stronghold along with some valuables like a few magic items. thats about all i have so far, any and all suggestions and ideas are appreciated.and heres the next part of the map

As I'm sure many other anons have said, try not to do too much long term planning. Whichever of your long term side quests the players gravitate towards could develop into a main story. Also, get a feel for your PCs motivations. Try to use that to your advantage when possible. For example, my tempest cleric is all about freedom and self determination, suddenly the village is being raided by slavers.

The fact that you're posting all this shit shows you at least care which is half the battle. The other half is being flexible. Good luck

>>49418929
appreciate the advice, will keep that in mind im gonna talk with them a little to better determine that.

Would limbless creatures view us the same way we view tentacle monsters?

>>49418904
>Oh no, please mister scary human, don't force your legs and your arms into my defenceless holes.

Aaaaaand suddenly I realize how tentacle monsters probably feel.

>They have these, these openings, and on top of their head stalk they have one large one, and they use it to communicate and to breath, but they, holy shit get this, they have these bone extrusions and they use them to rip and tear up material to aid in digestion.

>What the fuck, man.

>I know, right? Apparently they even touch each others holes and exchange bodily fluids as a sign of affection.

>*sounds of someone gagging*

We?
I don't think anything of it, Yu-Gi-Oh isn't my kind of thing.

>>49418287
You run this, and shape anew. You then run 4 blinkmoth nexus, 4 inkmoth nexus and 4 master's call.
2 platinum emperion, 4 blightsteel colossus, 4 sundering titan.

>>49418476
No.

The entire reason you'd run it with Emperion is because it will protect you from the damage. If you have other things it could hit, you stand a decent chance of murdering yourself.

>>49418257
Dogs in the Vineyard isn't lethal. In fact, the PCs will hardly ever die, and even gunfights aren't always going to kill someone.

But holy shit is it brutal, because it forces players to consider exactly how far they're willing to escalate a conflict, and when the guns do come out they know things have gotten fucking serious.

go punch a guy in the middle of the street

fast pace, high lethality, no GM fiat

I've been dying to try DitV; I recently read through the rulebook and watched a couple of actual players, and it sounds like a really fun and intense experience.

I own CitOW and played it at least four or five times. Plays like a medium-weight euro but manages to be somewhat thematic as well. Four-to-five(expansion)-player asymmetric game. Would recommend, kinda. Theme is a bit dark for certain folk.

Played Fury of Dracula on the hunters' side and enjoyed it. Highly Thematic and stylish. Was out of print for the longest time and will now be again forevermore. So maybe get it, while you can?

Not sure if either is a must have, tough.

>>49418586
Thanks. Chaos in the Old World sounds great actually.

>Fury of Dracula

How is this even GW related?

>>49418239
Blod bowl, CITOW, Forbidden Stars - bretty goot.
Conquest - was meh, but can be bretty goot with more content (or not).
Diskwars - want to try some day.
Rest - literally who tier.
