Grinding

phat fucking loot, and bodies are now desecrated after being looted for "magic metals".
so not alot considering the moon is trying to kill everything
Platinum becomes even more coveted than it already was.
Can you guys help a new player? i kind off understand the basics, but would like to have more info.
>What are the easiest system for beginners?
I am particularly looking for a nice and easy super heroes game system.
>What is the minimum number recommended of players
I have two friends interested in playing with me. (Ill probably be the DM.) Will that do, or should i look for more people?
>Is /qst/ a good place to practice as a DM?
>Where is the best place to play online?
Bonus point for being accessible. Like forums or even social media would be great, since people would be able to play with any system.
>>48408259
>Easy
>Beginners
>Supers
Savage Worlds, Feng Shui for specific type of supers
>Minimal number
2 players and the game runner
BUT
>Comfortable number
3 or 4 players and the game runner
>Is /qst/ a good place to practice as a DM?
It's a relatively good place to check your scenario, at least in theory... but the time it will take means it's not that good for practice - it takes weeks to run campaigns, assuming people play them in the first place
>Where is the best place to play online?
Depends on so many different factors it's impossible to answer. Your nationality, language fluency and time-zone are crucial here.
>>48408363
>Where is the best place to play online?
We are all from Venezuela, but i am currently living at Miami while they are still at that shithole.
We do share the exact time zone tho.
Also thanks!

Ho boy... from all places in States you've picked the only region I have no clue about when it comes to TTRPG.
And about number of players - 2 is good if you are running stuff like buddy cop scenarios or similar. Anything else usually takes 3 or 4 people.
Is there a lazier way to make a character "original" than having a female in a traditionally male role?
Easy: make the character a foreigner.
Is there a lazier way to get (you)s than to try to stir the shit with yet another -4 STR AMIRITE GUISE thread?
Is there a lazier way to make a thread "original" than having a bait post in a traditionally easy to bait board?
For a month or so now I have been running in circles trying to tape together a kind of eastern post-apocalyptic science-fantasy setting loosely inspired by Hyper Light Drifter, Necropolis, Furi and piles of concept art but I keep burning out.
So I ask of you, /tg/ - How would you go about making a setting in the technological ruins of ancient society? What kind of adventures could you run in it? Do you have any anecdotes or interesting lore tidbits?
Cool art and worldbuilding methods are also very welcome.
>>48407249
Will briefly dump some appropriate art from my meagre collection, if it helps.

>entire fantasy race is based around the hatred of another fantasy race
Pathetic.
If I'm to be a massive faggot, than at least let me revel in the faggotry.
/tg/, how would you run a Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle inspired game?
>>48406505
Red pill me on this manga, homie.
Confusingly as possible.
This manga was so fucking bad and confusing by the end.
>>48406505
are those the guys from Orana Host Club?
Because twins and the guy with glasses look exactly like that, even with the whole 'anime characters all look the same' thing.
Gentlemen.
How do we make the antipaladin rise?
But not making it "Paladin, but EEEEVIL", but actually giving it a distinct role and something unique.
>select all the squares with street signs
>bigarse shopping centre logo
>Yes, unholy champion, you CAN burn down the orphanage... but what then?
>The building is insured! It will be rebuilt twice as large, with better insulation and improved facilities!
>The smoke will be seen from all over the city... drawing attention to need for improved care for our society's most vulnerable!
>You may think your evil triumphs today, but in the long term, you will only bring an even greater goodness!!
>MWUHAHAHAHAA!!!
>>48406580
Spoilers; the Antipaladin owns the insurance company.
This is how a barbarian done right looks like
>not a scout boy talking constantly about muh honor
>honor in his understanding is a lot more like what real barbarians thought like rather than this ''chivalrous savage'' bullshit - ambush and raids are acceptable but outright cowardice or disrespect is not
>doesn't shun stealth, use any means necessary to achieve his goals
>he is not a monster who wrecks shit just because but he isn't above piracy either, proved to be a capable king and judges people by their character rather than social status
the last line is important because soo many barbarians in fantasy have this retarded ''me from the forest, you from the castle me hate you'' attitude
TL:DR stop trying to turn barbs into suicidal retards or making them so good a paladin would say they are tryharding make them guys who are actually down to earth yet rough around the edges as they were supposed to be

>telling people how to play their characters
>>48404775
What the fuck is with this? This is the third barbarians-done-wrong-done-right-what-is-with-barbarians thread that I've seen.
Your other two were shit, this one is shit, and I'm saging.

I vaguely remember playing a little MtG when the first sets were originally released in my high school days, but I don't remember the rules anymore. I thought about picking up some modern cards and trying to get back into the game, but I'm not sure if the hobby is still alive or if it's on a gradual decline. From what I've read, people are getting tired of rarity and balance issues with modern sets and inventing new formats (like pauper?) that might exclude more overpowered cards just so they can keep the game from being a moneysink. Do these kinds of formats keep the game fresh, or is MtG a lost cause at this point? I don't want to hop aboard a sinking ship.
Just play EDH. It's only as expensive as you want it to be, games are fun and amusing, it's relatively easy to get in to, and it's easy to find people to play with.
It's pretty late. Things are more expensive than they have ever been for no logical reason and the price-fixing scheme is only going to get worse as the years go on.
>>48404223
You can play it on tabletop simu!actor for free.
Does any RPG have comparative stats for various special operators, such as the SAS, Spetznaz, GNG, Green Berets, DEVGRU, etc.?
This is especially aimed at any wargamers that might have comparative unit stats. I don't know wargaming at all.
I'm writing some modern stuff and I wanted to know which commando groups had specializations, better training, comparative regimens, etc.
bump for maybe GURPS?
Maybe Twilight 2000?
>>48403533
>Spetsnaz as a singular group
Dont make that mistake.
I was feeling bored so I came up with a few concepts for space marine chapters, most of them are shit. This is a place for people to bounce Ideas off of eachother and maybe actually make something interesting.
So first one from me:
A chaos space marine chapter that despite living in the warp and being physically corrupted, act as if nothing happened, no angst, just inhuman apathy to the fact that Brother Xyxalgoth just grew an extra head. Completely out of touch with reality but frustrate the chaos gods with how calm they are about it.
If they ever make it out of the warp, they are amazed and dumbfounded. So they find regular space weird and the warp normal and chil.
>>48404341
Pretty much, They are so used to a surrealistic lifestyle that life in the regular imperium would be alien to them. They would also be declared as heretics instantly.
Now for an even more horrible Idea, An attempt to make "female" space marines in the way that breaks canon the Least.
Chapter Homeworld has a matriarchal society, Space Marines are always seen in armour and the locals generally refer to them as females. Space Marines initially just didnt care because they are post-human warriors and stuff. Eventually the chapter started to embrace the myths surrounding them, while biologically not different from other space marines, they take feminine names and some members of the chapter add breastplates to armor as decoration. (even though they have no breasts)
Good morning and welcome back to Ask A Judge!
Okay so.
Ice Cave.
The card is super dope, but it's left me wondering something. If I play an X spell, do we need to keep track of the colors used to play it or can they just pay generic for the X like I can?
>>48403371
You just pay the mana cost. If I cast an Inferno Titan by tapping 6 Mountains, the mana cost is not RRRRRR, it's 4RR. Ice Cave lets you counter by paying the mana cost (the thing in the top right), not "what the other person paid"
For X spells, you just need to match the amount for X, and match the colored costs of the spell. A Fireball for X=6 cast entirely off of Mountains will get shut down by the black/red player tapping 6 Swamps and a Mountain just fine, because they're paying the mana cost of 6R.

With Liliana heretical healer, If I use damnation and it hits both her and a creature I control, does she trigger exiling her and returning her transformed or does she go to the graveyard and get stuck there?
I am planning on running a Homebrew DnD game and want the characters to go to the moon or maybe have it come to them. Looking for anyway to incorporate the moon into the plot, the world is very fluid now. Any and all ideas welcome.
>>48402257
Hellstar Remina but with the Moon instead of another planet
How does your group determine the party leader?If the answer isn't "in-character", you may not be RPing enough.
>>48402210
Still salty there's a blanket ban on you ever being party leader again for being such a shithead, John?
>>48402241
You've got the wrong shithead but now I'm curious
I talk to the important NPCs and tell them what the party will do and everyone just goes along with it until I declare myself official party lead
What do you do if you don't have a local game store, don't have friends to play with and want to play with your physical cards?
>inb4 play with myself
that gets boring quickly
>>48402017
Go make some friends.
Accept disappointment in at least one regard.
>>48402027
If he could do that he wouldn't be here.
>>48402017
You could probably bash together some kind of video call with another weirdo.
