You’re assaulted from all sides. It’s a hopeless situation. Your senses are just overwhelmed. You can barely see or hear anything that you can make sense of.

And it’s great! Your Pokemon and human friends hug, kiss, and lick you.

“Nice to see you, Kat.” Geno’s unjudging voice cuts through. “Robin.”

Robin looks up at the crowd of spectators. Gym leaders and the Elite Four. She gets up, brushes herself off, pulls you up, and coughs. “Alright people. Show’s over. Main unit, keep advancing. Reserves, watch the rear. Nice and steady, but keep that pace up. Remember, we have people on the outside that are counting the seconds. Move out!”

Wow! She is commanding.

The group gets into gear and Robin turns back to you. She looks terrified but giddy. She breathes and forces it away. “There’s a PC box with the others. You can switch your team there if you need.” Robin grabs your shoulder. “Just a little more, and we’ll set everything right.”

“Robin.” Violet greets her cautiously.

“Former champion Violet.” Robin grabs your hand and starts walking back to the main group.

Ammo is pretty easy to make and if the ship can replicate basic parts I would be stunned at the UNSC incompetence.

Yeah, they're fucked.

all that discussion in the last thread and calling it a "shadow general" and then nothing here
man you guys are flip-flops on this stuff

Link to previous thread?
Also I like Worm's grimdarkness. It's almost as bad as our world at times. It's refreshing in a genre usually made from a place of ignorance privilege and naivete.

Yes. Extremely gross and you know it.
You're basically taking Frankenstein into /d/ territory. What you should do instead is have the hideous chimera want to learn more about civilized life but currently unable to interact with it without traumatizing the townspeople.
It hides during the day and observes people, but so far it has skewed ideas of what people and civilization is really like.
The pregnancy thing is really disturbing but the idea that the monster thinks that possessing a child would make people more sympathetic is good.
They might eventually abduct a kid or adopt an orphan who might not be so repulsed by their new guardian. But this would enrage the townsfolk who now think everyone is in danger to the creature.
Unless someone teaches the monster how to be a part of society, it will continue to accidentally terrorize people and be villainized.

>>49044735

I dunno. On a related note, the setting I'm working up has a hive mind insectoid race that spawns roughly humanoid autonomous forms for diplomacy and trading with other races. Do you think it would be more appropriate for them to be kind of standoffish and alien or would it be more impactful for them to look and act exaggeratedly like other races?

>>49045501
Exaggeration is best.

Do both, keep flirting until just a point in time that it becomes way too embarassing for us, and then turn it back to the fight. Try to regain control.

Maybe talk about sword play, or perhaps a time when he didn't have his helmet on, or even bringing up how he always has his helmet on. I'm not too picky.

Anyways, as usual. Advantages/Disadvantages

*The main things are armor protecting too much, and brawl potentially being a dump stat. If you snag these specific rules from Mythic or from the house rules, Legendary stands up pretty well and is like half the length.

And with free time came boredom.
In order to alleviate this problem many people picked up various hobbies that turned into full blown careers.
A hollow might have started drawing pictures only to become a proper painter later.
Someone who got interested in shaping clay started making pots and distributed amongst his fellows.
Most people either acquired an occupation where they help the community, such as farming or cleaning, or they set up stalls where they trade their handiwork's to things of equal value.
Slowly civilization showed its head even with the lack of a proper currency.
Indeed, most transactions happen on a "I owe you" system or via exchanging goods.

But a malicious shadow looms over the peaceful merchant square.
The hollows look up into the sky as they hear a banshee like howl.

"DANTEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
Apacci shrieks as the tiny figure darts past the innocent bystanders while giggling.

With a groan you roll around in your bed as you try to look at the window.
You get ready to get out of your comfortable resting place when an arm reaches around you from behind.
"Just five more minutes."
Harribel speaks, still half asleep.

You slump back into your bed.
"Fine...
But only five..."
With that you return to your lovers embrace.

In the meantime the culprit is running wild with his prize in hand.
The white haired boy looks behind him to see Apacci struggling to catch him.
Her head is beet red as she screams at the top of her lungs.
"GET BACK HERE YOU LITTLE THIEF!"

With a smile the boy responds with confidence.
"Okay."
He vanishes for a moment and runs a lap around Apacci, arriving behind her.

By the time she realized the trick Dante has already left her behind.
They repeat this process several times as the boy keeps losing Apacci in the small alleyways.
Eventually, after minutes of running around, Apacci gets exhausted.
Her hands are on her knees as she tries to catch her breath.

Standing on the branch of a rather large tree the boy is smiling triumphantly.
In his hands some sort of fabric can be seen as he spins it around. It's Apaccis bra.
"Strange, aren't deers supposed to be fast?"

Harribels Fraccióne looks up, a vein popping out of her forehead.
"YOU..."

Dante smirks as he interrupts her.
"Your next line is going to be..."

"DON'T GET AHEAD OF YOURSELF, BRAT!~"
The two of them speak up at the same time as Apacci fires off a bala.
"Huh?"

In her shock the female arrancar realizes her mistake.
Dante kicks the incoming mass of energy upward as he begins falling backwards.
As he is falling he grabs hold of the rope he previously fixed to the trees trunk and it activates the trap.
The rather large net erupts from under the sand and lifts the unfortunate Arrancar up into the air.

As the boy is chuckling to himself he looks up at his victim while still spinning the lingerie.
"Oh deer, this must be embarrassing for you!"

Apacci is screaming even more obscenely now as she tries to get out of her trap.
"YOU LIL' BRAT I'LL KILL YOU!"

But as Dante is laughing hard at her misfortune you lift him up by his red collar.
His eyes slowly shift towards you as his cackling stops.
"Ooops. Looks like I've been caught."
He says with a smirk and a shrug.

>Scold your grandson
>Berate Apacci
>"I just came to check out the noises, carry on."
>Other? (write-in)

Mild hype.

Clearly didn't try 2e, so many fun careers so little time.

>>49039439
>>How often do you teach a new game (or games) to other players?

Fairly often - maybe 50% of the time we board game I'll teach a new game since I've got a large collection.

>>Describe your collection - what percentage of your games are light, medium, or heavy games?

20% light - 40% medium - 40% heavy games.

>>What percentage of your collection (if any) do you have sleeved or laminated?

I laminate resource cards and other large game parts whenever possible just to help preserve the components for as long as possible (and to avoid the 'spilled drink' / 'Greasy fingers' issues that kill game parts rapidly).

>>Do you ever make / use 'player aids' to help teach new players how to play a game?

I try to use any player aids I can like rules summaries to make it easier for new players to learn the game. I figure if new players have a good first learning experience I'll be more likely to get them to play that game again later. It seems to have worked for the most part so far.

>>And of course, as always, feel free to brag about your latest new game (or admit your gaming addition). We promise not to mock you (much).

I.. I admit it. I bought Dead of Winter 'The Long Night' even though my group hasn't played the core game very much and the 'traitor' mechanic in the core game isn't the best. But I bought it for a discount (under $40) so that makes it all good. Right guys? Guys?

>Looking to add a few games to my collection and was hoping to get some suggestions!
>I have about 100 dollars to spend and im more than happy with getting used games.

Check the pastebin link in the OP. There are a number of places online where you can find discount new games - CSI, MiniatureMarket, and Cardhaus being some of the most well known. As for used games - check out the Board Game Geek site and their Geek Bazaar.
I've purchased 4 or 5 new or used games from various sellers there and always had good experiences (YMMV).

> I'm also particularly interested in finding some good coop games.

There are tons of 'full coop' and 'semi coop' games out there.

Full Coop:
Forbidden Island / Forbidden Desert. (Desert is the more challenging of the two.)
Sentinels of the Multiverse
Legendary Encounters (card game) - Marvel Heroes, Aliens, Predator, etc.
Pandemic
Zombicide
Dead of Winter (without the traitor mechanic).
Gears of War
Robinson Crusoe

Semi Coop
The Resistance
Dark Moon
Cutthroat Caverns
Level 7 Omega Protocol
Fury of Dracula
Shadow Hunters
Saboteurs
Specter Ops

>How often do you teach a new game (or games) to other players?
Pretty often due to being the board game supplier. Had the pleasure of being taught a few games by our FLGS owner though recently, which was refreshing.

>Describe your collection - what percentage of your games are light, medium, or heavy games?
Going by a combination of average time needed to play and complexity of rules, probably 25% heavy, 25% light, 50% medium?

>What percentage of your collection (if any) do you have sleeved or laminated?
I have 2 games fully sleeved, and another partially sleeved (Netrunner decks). Mostly due to how hard it is to bring in sleeves for varying card sizes.

>Do you ever make / use 'player aids' to help teach new players how to play a game?
Only the games that might be harder than usual to grasp the concept of (Twilight Struggle) or if it can be hard to keep track of possible options (Fury of Dracula).

>And of course, as always, feel free to brag about your latest new game (or admit your gaming addition). We promise not to mock you (much).
A store I buy from will finally be stocking Arboretum and Archaeology: the New Expedition soon, which I'm looking forward to. Small box games are great.
