In most settings dragons are quadrupeds I'd say. Also in most mythological depictions

In my experience it's either two legs, two wings and tail (sometimes called wyverns) or four legs, two wings and a tail.

>>48289269
But a tail isn't a limb you mongoloid.

Smite shadow, bag the cleric for later.

In a setting with other gods probably. Otherwise her god's the only one that actually does something, so fuck the Seven we're going full R'hllor over here.

the fallout system is already pretty RPG, if you don't like the PnP you could convert the system to function on the tabletop pretty easily

Monster hunters are no different from any other kind of trapper.

Bears were treated as essentially monsters during the migration period - mother fuckers still went out and hunted them.

>>48287646
Bears don't breathe fucking fire, turn people to stone or regenerate from death.

C'mon guy, I know what your point was, but comparing the real-world situation to the actual monsters is just silly.

They'd be feared and kept an arms length or further most likely. Someone who slays the monsters that uproot villages must surely seem even more monstrous.

Just ask your players if they find a brutal system fun.

If that's what you like, make sure it's clear to your players going in.

I've personally never played a system like that, but I could see myself entertained by it because I wouldn't get too attached to my toon.

>>48287351

No it's true to life or 'realistic' for want of of a better word.

Most fights end when one side manages to get a strike in and kill the other person, not from a slow whittling down of hit points until somebody falls over from enough scratches. Fatigues certainly a factor but it represents somebody being tired and therefore leaving themselves open.

Even in modern terms a tank is going to go down in one when an RPG gets a lucky shot at it, not when it's hit points are slowly chipped away enough.

From a game play perspective it's very swingy and most people dont find it fun because your players can die based on random rolls of the dice from anybody who can hold a sword.

If your group are on board go for it though it makes fights scary and forces them to only decide to fight when absolutely necessary as the risk is huge.

>>48287351
If you're playing a realistic game, then a realistic chance of that happening is just something the players have to be made aware of before hand. The amount of fun had is entirely dependent on the people playing. I've played with guys who had the most fun in game worlds that would be familiar to a loony toon, and some that could only enjoy games as realistic as possible. Needless to say they didn't like playing together, but if you are in a realistic game then being offed by some random cunt is just a risk that needs to be accepted by the players.

It's not a matter of good or bad design, just talk to your players and ask them how lethal they want it. Better than trying to guess.

Yang Zing players are fascist neo-nazis

Yes I've done it, and before anyone nit picks the concept, chill. It's fantasy and a specific appeal to rule of cool.

>>48286902
Ooh. Can you go into detail about it? Like, for starters, how the inhabitants cope with the everlasting rain?

One of the swamps in my setting constantly rains due to some huge ass magical trees sapping liquid in the air away from nearby regions. Those surrounding regions are basically deserts now due to how large the swamp has gotten over the course of millennia. Due to said swamp also being next to the ocean hurricanes and typhoons and shit constantly develop around that area and no human willingly lives there except for crazy wizards.

Also there is some real life places where it never stops raining, like Cherrapunjee.

he is fucking their morathi.

>>48286568
He's trapped in a semi-dead state of endless pain. He'll be rescued by someone, not sure who, and need to be put down.

>>48286568
The dark eldar wern't able to deal with him and they used scorched earth tactics sealing off a whole relam to keep him trapped.

Vect has sacrificed webway realms for lesser threats than a porimarch in fluff (as documented in path of the renegade).

Khan is fine.
He's just bored, trying to escape, and frustrated that the last time he actually managed to escape they sealed off the realm he broke into as well and then upped security.

DotS.

Are you a DM?
If so, you decide. I could see some old school "All Orcs are evil players" getting upset. Personally, I think nurture would play a pretty big role, but it could easily go either way.
More importantly, do what you think is fun and
what you think your players will enjoy.

If orcs possess intelligence enough to understand language, then there's no real reason why they couldn't be taught to live in society.
Now, even if orcs are prone to aggression, or full blown "evil" behavior, then it's simply a matter of adjusting their behavior to fit the laws of that society.

Besides, presumably this is a medieval English type setting? In which case the orc could do pretty much anything it wanted to, so long as he decided to do it on the !French and it'd be just and good.
Hell, if it's !Italy, he might be pope, if he's got the dough.

>>48286114
Are you the OP from a few days ago that wanted to reuse dungeons again and again like a video game?

>>48286114
I think that's literally dark souls 1. Either you kill everything and arbitrarily succeed, or you die and fight the everything over.

Just have different areas at different strengths and have the played spawn at various checkpoints when they die.

Re-Zero pretty much does it right

Finchs, Gods, and Mermaids for wipeout.
The middle class for joining arms.

>What race will stand with the humans?
From what I know from various settings and lore, it's most likely that elves will stand with the humans.

>What 3 races want to destroy humanity?
Orcs, undead... dragons?

Halflings, gnomes, dwarves
Giants

Diplomacy.

Dear god, the things I've promised to survive the first two years as Austria.

>>48284551
I don't mean games that turn friends to enemies, I mean games you enjoy so much you played them with people you wouldn't socially associate with otherwise.

>>48284785

I don't associate with Diplomacy players otherwise, though. They're horrible shits who think life is a zero sum game.

Well, I advise begginers to learn how to deal with the most anal decks in the meta.
Izzet Blitz, Delver, Infect and Mono-Black Control.

If you can somehow deal with these decks, you're fine.

Here it's updated Soldiers List.
Feel free to use it. If you face way too many MBCs on your Meta, you may want to swap Elite Vanguard with Thraben Inspector and bring Loyal Cathar and Desperate Sentry to the main board.

4 x Veteran Swordsmith
4 x Veteran Armorsmith
3 x Raise the Alarm
2 x Secluded Steppe
18 x Plains
3 x Topan Freeblade
4 x Gempalm Avenger
4 x War Falcon
2 x Bonesplitter
3 x Ballynock Cohort
3 x Ballyrush Banneret
4 x Elite Vanguard
3 x Celestial Flare
2 x Journey to Nowhere

Side
2 x Prismatic Strands
3 x Crimson Acolyte
3 x Loyal Cathar
2 x Desperate Sentry
2 x Disenchant
3 x Holy Light

>>48284887
Have you tried using deftblade elite+test of faith? It seems like a really neat combat trick.

>tfw job so not much time
It's pauper grinder viable?

Enjoy and discuss.

Forgotten Realms is a low latitude setting so most people are dark.

>>48283141
>fantasize
Man, using it in verb form like that is really confusing. I can't tell whether or not I think it sounds cool or not.

I really would like it if Forgotten Realms were just destroyed and forgotten about. It was fun back in the Crystal Shard days with the old art but its so full of vidya shit it's not even worth playing anymore.

Fucking cancer. But then pretty much every Wizards of the Coast setting except for Grayhawk was cancer.
