Their autism is excusable in Skyrim, since it's a single player game.

This is just horrible.

I will be having my various friends and girlfriend come to my house (costume optional) and we will play a one-shot of something vaguely Halloween related, although not straight-up horror since a couple of my players don't really like that. Isn't it a bit early for these threads though?

I run one every halloween. This time it's spooksters in spess.

I plan to spend this halloween just like any other. Drunk. People optional.

This is a video game, correct?

Just because you had a thought spark between your two solitary brain cells doesn't mean you should act on it, or post it on the internet.

Use your imagination, if a PC hacks a guy for a bunch of damage you can say the guy is wounded in some way, maybe his arm is broken, or maybe the blade bit deep into his side and now he's bleeding bad. That's the best way to deal with it instead of putting a bunch of rules in that may or may not be fucked.

>>49003288
Are we talking D20 or something like D20, you may need to be more specific.

And honestly, this sort of thing should be decided on a case by case basis. Usually no more than a few minuses to skills or stats. Though if you're running ng in a D20 style game, healing is so commonplace!ace that these off the cuff minuses dont tend to endure.

The System is Dungeonslayers, it uses only d20 roles. Your roles have to be lower as your check to pass it.

Let's get the simple out of the way:
>Game matches
Necrons would most likely win.

>In lore
I'm not too well versed in Necron lore, but from what I understand they haven't all woken up yet. And apparently when they all do wake up, they're supposed to have an army that could beat pretty much anything.

>>49003281
Is that necron supposed to look like it's flipping the tyranid off, or is that a happy little accident?

>>49003281
>Have they ever crossed paths in the lore?
Lore has a Hive Fleet splinter pulling a 180 away from a Dyson Sphere containing the C'tan known as the Outsider. This was Oldcron lore. though.

I think more Oldcrons vs Tyranids had the Tyranids attacking a Tau outpost of some sort, before the Necrons activated and killed all the Tyranids. The Tau threw them a party or something and the Necrons killed them all too.

A Newcrons vs Tyranids battle is in Shield of Baal. That one was a phyrric victory for the Necrons and their Blood Angel allies, because they managed to at least slow the Tyranids down but they lost the system in the process.

As a general rule, the Hive Mind will not attack enemies it can't absorb for biomass (Necrons, Daemons) unless those enemies become active threats to the process of turning the planet into biomass.

Because, if they take that to excess, they wouldn't want to hear anything. So they would avoid battle in favour of locking themselves in a soundproof room and then trying to silence their own heartbeat.

>>49002520
>they wouldn't want to hear anything.
so they go to battle to make everyone shut the fuck up

>>49002536
Not when ejecting themselves from a ship in an escape pod gets them silence much quicker.

>>49002455

Kill the kobolds and the children. Tell the village that the kids were already dead when you go there.

That way you get paid and the kids dont suffer.

>>49002455
Ask the kids.

Investigate further to find out the truth.
If Kobolds are telling the truth, check on children's conditions. If they are well fed, happy and not overworked, let them be. If they are mistreated, bring them back to the village and organize an orphanage there.

If kobolds are lying, and the villagers do care for orphans, kill the kobolds and bring kids back.

If everybody is lying. Kill everybody.

Industry is progressive, you wouldn't want to portray communists/slavs as filthy orc subhumans now would you?

>>49001394

One wants to depict them like the most badass human warriors, who tended to be nomadic pastoralists like the Mongols (though this would mean the normal class for orc would be horse-archer and I don't want to even imagine that) who relied on weaker, sedentary peoples to make most of their manufactured goods for them.

Did someone say Mongolian Orcs?

>>49001301
My question from the last thread is, if I add the following stats to power armor/robot armor/vehicles, would it make the game too complex?

>1. Sensor rating to detect things (replaces the Notice skill);
>2. Stealth Systems (including ECM) as camouflage to avoid detection (replaces the Stealth skill).
>3. Firewall to protect against hacking (acts like an opposed Hacking skill for the platform).
>4. Active protection systems (free counter-attack to stop incoming missiles).

There are a lot of combat stats, but not much interesting to do with all those cool robot sensors and systems. At least not in game numbers. Adding these stats would allow lower-power classes like City Rats, Scouts and Psi-Operators to do cool stuff in combat other than firing guns, and back those tricks up with numbers rather than just GM fiat.

This would also give players more interesting choices when choosing armor & vehicles. Rather than just taking the one with the most Armor, they could choose something with better Sensors for a scouting role, better Stealth for an infiltration operation, or better Firewall if they're expected sophisticated hacker opponents. The trade-offs would allow greater variety in power & robot armor.

Thoughts?

People say it gives you magical wisdom, but it really just makes you healthier and immune to poison. Anyone who avoids dying in battle or getting shanked (and then can rely on the ring to protect them from poison and gout) is probably just a wise ruler in the first place.

I... um. Hrm.

Well, if you genuinely feel like you're not intelligent, just keep in mind that 99% of /tg/ have some form of complete mental retardation, so at the very worst you'll fit right in. At best, you might be the chosen one destined to lead us into a new age of enlightenment.

Good luck, either way.

We can't really tell you anything that you'll actually believe. Your problem is a result of your own lack of self-esteem.

I can tell this from the fact that you consider your friends highly intelligent, when really they're probably the same as you.
I can tell they're not intelligent at all, because they play D&D

>>49000829
If you don't like reading fantasy and scifi you won't be able to "fully appreciate" the hobby, the references, the in-jokes... but you can still have fun. Just enjoy yourself and the game, forget about the rest.

Lots of people in this hobby don't take it very seriously. It's not supposed to be work.

Bumping for interest, can't really think of any specific systems. But I think there is already a tabletop conversion out there.
Classes would be interesting, though with the amount of characters and stuff, it'd probably be better to go with something more ability based, though that's just my opinion on it. Maybe organizing classes based on weapons? Like all pistol users would be derived from the same class.
Good luck anyway
I'd also be down to play if this ever happens
