So! The Not-Warstriders.

How are they?

>>49261598
I haven't had a chance to play with them in-game, but I like the mechanics for creating them and they have a neat niche. I think in one of the previous threads someone talked about giving them to a trusted mortal servant, since Godbound tend to be plenty powerful without them, and that seems like a good way to use them in-game.

/tg/ usually raises some pretty good points sometimes and I'm asking because I got into a conversation with someone during my DnD game about it

>>49260090

To answer the question, even though it's in the wrong place.

Medieval feudalism can be most attributed to the late Roman empire, and more specifically it's taxation system.
Trade was taxed while property was not. This incentivized large, rich landowners to make their land as self-sufficient as possible so that they did not have to pay taxes to obtain the necessities.
As the late Roman Empire progressed into the fall of the (Western) Roman Empire, these self-sufficent estates continued to grow, and as order broke down, individuals fled to what order survived. These estates were order.
Eventually, they grew into the feudal states we know and love/hate.

I dunno if it's stupid or not because you haven't given any information beyond the name. Who are they? Who's their progenitor? What's their specialty?

Okay, you answered one and a half questions.

*Who are they*. What is their culture. What sorts of traditions. What's their history.

(From the sounds of it, they'd make better Fists or Iron Hand so far.)

All you need is to give the Cromulins a Zylox crystal so that they can send out the Protothean vibration to solve the problem.

Fuck off back to your space banks, you shifty-eyed Queethar.

>I've been thinking about creating newbie friendly events to avoid those problems; during the weekends we do events for kids and youngsters (Mainly pauper, they can make theie decks for free at the store) and the revenue is good enough, so maybe we can try this format.

Go with that. You simply run into the problem that different people desire different things from the event. It cannot be put together, call theirs 'competitive events' or something similar.
Banning people makes them angry, catering to people should make them happier.

>>49259281

This is a pretty good idea actually. I would suggest having other new player events besides pauper though. And a problem I see is that if the pt guys are still around the store when it goes down they'll stay to watch, heckle, and backseat drive, if my experience is anything to go buy. Personally I'm one of those new guys that got driven out. Friend of mine introduced me to magic and I loved it. Loved everything about it and just played with friends, including the guy who got us started who as a pt type, but he didn't go all try hard with us so it was cool. Moved and decided to go to lgs for Friday night magic. Lose, a lot( I mean I'd win some, but I'd never win the tourney or the draft overall you know? )everyone gives me shit all the time and treats me like an idiot cause I didnt have a top tier deck and just ran something I had made myself. Eventually I just got sick of it.

>>49260237
Seems like the safest bet to diversify options and get revenue without having to frown upon some kind of players

>>49260296
That sounds just like what happens at the store. Now imagine being a 13 year old attending his first FNM. A living hell and a death sentence to Magic as a hobby


If I was to create newcomer events, which formats would be the best? Pauper with free decks is a kid's favourite and makes Magic dads come to the store to buy and chat while the kids play, so that's a sure shot, but what else can I offer?

I'd go with chaos spawn with dinosaur features, or skeletal remains animated with warplock tech. I don't think Skavens have enough experience with such unusual war animals to keep it in good health.

If you pick the latter, don't forget about warp lightning/warp fire thrower in it's mouth.

Did you miss the warcraft general or something?

There is literally only one instance of jamaican-inspired trolls in all fantasy fiction and, despite being sadly one of the most famous settings around (and also shit since 200fucking4), it is hardly representative. In fact, its trolls have nothing to do with any other troll in any other fantasy universe.

>>49258431
They do look a bit like Warhammer trolls.

>>49256990
They should update Eldar models first. They're some of the oldest still available

The sad part is I think your actually serious.

I'll start. I actually am a bi dude, so glad I said they were cool here.

I usually don't make a thing of it when I play gay characters, the whole three times I did lol. Not terribly inventive I'm sad to say, one was a green Agri-World Guardsmen that was quiet and repressed about it because of the expectation of having a family to help with farming, further shamed by a simplistic view of Slaanesh cultists as being sodomites and sex addicts. Played him as slightly overprotective of the slender Psyker, identifying with his struggle against his own nature but equally being scared of him as an example. Flustered easily by the other Guard PC since she was an aggressive veteran that had all the little moral looseness a veteran is expected to have. Ironically, she teased him for being gay the whole time but never believed it, just thought he was a hick Virgin who was a little simple. Was also responsible for using him to bait the cultists as "he was perfect recruitment material" being shy, quiet in the way only a man big enough to stop fights by standing up can be, and with the "ability" to blush from a single entendre.

Ironically it worked, I say ironic because the cult was for philosophers and artists and they were ascetics (My GM doesn't do lewd except vaguely or implied) and they needed someone to carry things.

I didn't tell anyone OOC or IC he was gay until after the game when the FemGuard, who died halfway through and was replaced by a local arbite who saw too much, joked about it being a shame he never got to experience character growth and if I was just jealous because I wasn't getting any IRL. Flabbergasted when I said he would have preferred the Psyker if he wasn't an abomination.

I guess this was also the story of "The time I half-assed came out to my group."

>>49256730
Fuck off, faggot.

Does Morph have a separate ETB? Once when the card is played face-down, and another when flipped face up?

I have Exotic Orchard and a Swamp, my opponent has an Exotic Orchard. These are the only lands in play. Does my Exotic Orchard tap for B?

Opponent attacks with a 5/5, I declare blocker with a 1/1 and cast Test of Faith, is my 1/1 a 4/4 with 2 damage?

I wanted to make something like this (from the outside) a small abandoned village at the base of the mountain and a cave leading to a passage to the top where the tower is.

The tower itself could be divided on 2 sections, the part that can be seen (low on combat but with a lot of storytelling) and and huge underground area (more focused on exploration) with an underground lake where the boss dwells

anyway, this is what i need your help with:
>do you know any good locations for this on skyrim?
i want it to be easy to see the tower from the distance, to place it somewhere the player might find it without needing a mapmarker
>do you have any advices about dungeon design? i have made some modding for skyrim on the past, but never made a dungeon
>what about traps? any cool ideas on that?
i wish to use traps but not in the usual way skyrim does,i don't want the to just be there to be an obstacle for the player, i want to use them in a way that makes the player think
>what are your favourite dungeons? from any media, videogames, tabletop roleplaying games or wathever
>do you know any dungeon layout i should check out?
anyway sorry for my broken english and thank you in advance for any ideas you can bring to the table

/tg/ dungeons and /v/ dungeons, especially for Skyrim aren't really the same OP. In /tg/ you have to keep players interested, so there is much more stuff like planning your next moves, many skill checks and situations for different characters to excel at, more complicated riddles and traps etc. And usually less fighting then in a video game.

Skyrim dungeons(with no offense for the game itself) are basically slash your way through hordes of enemies (or stealth shoot them if you're an edgelord/pussy), avoid some obvious traps and get loot at the end.

What I'm trying to say is, you might get some cool ideas for your dungeon here, but /tg/ way of doing stuff usually doesn't translate well into /v/.

>>49256034
>skyrim
Eww. I'm not sure even the Commander Keen rule counts for this.

Lasguns can fire a hundred shots or so from a dinky power pack that charges in sunlight.

I don't think the power needed for a relatively small motor or an energy field generator, that can be switched on or off when needed, are so demanding that they can't have a similar system.

I'd think that that would be why they don't really have rules for such things. If you really want to I guess you could say they get x amount of uses from each power source or whatever before they have to replace it.

>>49255565
>he wants to bloat the rules further

It's assumed that people take enough energy/power/ammo for their weapons before heading into a fight.

40k power weapons were made by space masons and need no charging/power cells past what they have in them.

Chainswords are pretty much trash tier weapons that already have time for cells listed.

Pitched battle is a fool's endeavour. Guerilla war all the things. Nothing but wizards with small groups of fighters near them for physical protection.

>>49255492
Again, it depends on the fucking setting.

One setting has rocket tag mages, so they use peasants as radar to look for the enemy mage. Others where magic is common as fuck, they interspersed within the army to create barriers and wards against turning stone to mud. And settings where magic is rare as fuck, mages have a gentleman's agreement to not interfere in mortal affairs.

>>49255512
This is the solution. Because of the lack of reliable communications on an accessible scale, we need to devolve decision-making down to highly self-sufficient groups operating largely autonomously across a wide frontier. I think it would be quite the adventure. Perhaps we should call them adventurer groups.
