So looking over last thread, people briefly talked about Wizards casting spontaneously like sorcerers and mechanics for that. Since magic gets borked in the jump at one point, it sounds like the Slayer's Handbook would let you rewrite how magic works to let Wizards cast spontaneously. What possible problems might one run into and how might they be solved if so? Consider me green as grass when it comes to 3.5

Is Wild Card here?

A loud shout and the sound of crashing water awakes you; you stumble from your tent, not entirely awake…

“What IS all this noise? We girls need our beauty rest, after all…” you grumble, noting that the other three girls are just as groggy as you are.

The sun is just now beginning to rise- and that’s when you locate the source of the noise- Guy and Lee, in trucks, meditating under the waterfall. Guy is composed, but Lee shivering and complaining about the cold.

“Haha! Morning ladies!” Guy says, shooting out a thumbs up from his meditative pose. “Don’t mind us, just doing a little morning meditation! To strengthen body, mind, and soul! You, of course, are more than welcome to join us!

Itachi and Sasuke, who apparently had just woken up as well, appear shortly afterward; hair disheveled and sharing the same grimace towards Guy and Lee.

You….

1. Join them! Training of the mind is exactly what you need to wake up!
2. Grumble and go clean yourself up. There’s no getting back to sleep now….
3. Go ahead and strike camp. When these two stooges are done, we can head out, making good time.

The thing that gets me here is the implication that a scrawny cunt like that could effectively use a sword, and he goes so far as to insult people who do go to the gym.

>>47837008
Well, the sword is really about skill more than brute force, unless the opponent is wearing any kind of armor, but the then the sword is blah blah already discussed.

But in real-world terms, "I'mma punch you in the face, real hard, 'cause I'm strong, or just pin you" is a more practical course of action than "ooooh, you're just lucky I don't have my sword with me!"

>>47837008
In fairness, you don't need to be particularly strong to wield a katana effectively. It's not a zweihander

Depends on what you like and what sort of game you'd be interested in. Barring a few examples (FATAL, RaHoWar, Dungeon World, etc), most rpgs have some merit to at least some people, and what's an unfun chore to you could be someone else's favorite.

I like gurps and Runequest 6 for low fantasy stuff, and Fate and Wulin for crazier, high flying stuff. I've also heard savage worlds is nice.

>So what is everyone's favorite rpg system?
D&D 5e.

I've tried 3.PF, GURPS, FATE, Apocalypse World, and smaller indie games like Engine Heart and Magical Burst, but 5e is the one I keep coming back to and enjoy playing/running the most.

>>47829175
Really? How come? I've played it and its alright, but it struck me as more just competent than really great

Last thread there was a consensus that Arcanthus are OP in 2e MtAw.

My question is this:
If 5 players are trying to create a powerful cabal, would it be more OP if they all went Arcanthus, or if they covered all of their bases by each going into a different path?

Also, is there any path whose Arcana seem underpowered?

>>47821336
>Also, is there any path whose Arcana seem underpowered?

Obrimos got shafted HARD in 2e

>>47821336
>Last thread there was a consensus that Arcanthus are OP in 2e MtAw.

If by "last thread" you mean "since the fucking beginning of 2e and every thread with the damn 2hu guy," then yeah.

Fate and Time are brick shittingly overpowered even by Mage 2e standards.

First for spending hours building a deck, playing it once then building a new one

Been thinking of getting Freyalise, she looks like a lot of fun. Is the package good on it's own or should I buy all the cards separate. I also have Daretti Never Forgetti and his pre-construction was good enough.

Martial settlement agreement?

One idea I've had is that if the enemies have some kind of communication system and if you could in some manner access it it would be possible to send out a high-pitched sound that would make enemies with headpieces reveal themselves sp you would at least know which people are after you.

>>47825472

I know that its possible to send mass sms to people in certain areas I think it was used in syria by the government to scare/warn protesters before things went beyond such niceties.

I got the idea that you could send mass message to people claiming it was from the police containing pictures of your pursuers and stating they are criminals/terrorists and dangerous to create problems for them.

no one?

Tell casters to hurry the fuck up. Rounds are 6 seconds not 5 minutes.

This to be quite honest family. People should be planning their move during other players' turns. Few things annoy me more in gaming than people who check out after rolling the dice and need a recap every round.
>wait what happened here?

Alternatively you could try to shift the focus away from combat, meaning less combat, and less slog. Combat should be exciting, and DnD makes it mundane really fast since everything is trying to kill you.

As standard operational procedures entail, I'll need you to provide specialization and your kit listing.

You'll find what we have on the left. From the satelite scans and what information we've been able to gather, Command suggests guns on the ground and hard hits rathern than the more restrained approach our Alchemists normally require.

“I can see it in your eyes,” the other Riku tells you with a smirk as your swords lock close, subtly shifting and sliding against each other to win the battle of leverage. “You're frantically asking yourself how perfect a clone I am. Well, allow me to answer that question with another question...”

You feel yourself losing out ever so slightly in the meeting of blades, and decide to drive your knee forward into your attacker's gut only to find your counterattack met with her own leg. A second snap-kick to the side of her head as your blades slide past each other is blocked with her arm, and a second slash with her “Tenkotsuki” finds only air as you take advantage of hirenkyaku to reverse your momentum and slide around to take her back.

“What point would there be in merely copying you?” she asks, having used her own hirenkyaku to escape. Yet again, your own carefully-practiced movement has been used against you. “Why settle for a stalemate?”

“You're implying you're better than me somehow?” you grunt, knocking her fist away and striking at her ribs with Tenkotsuki's hilt. “How's that work?”

Her elbow quickly drops to disrupt your attack as you exchange a furious series of blows and counter-blows. “Secret.”

“Of course.”

So far this exchange has accomplished nothing but make you wonder if one of the Privaron Espada actually got in a lucky shot, and you're actually in a delusional state lying on the ground back in Karakura town. You're not sure which of the scenarios would frustrate you the most, but thinking back on the Privaron Espada it seems much more likely that this is real.

That means you'll need to find some means of gaining back momentum, something you can leverage against your clones to steal back a clear advantage. As the two Yoruichis continue to trade massive blows at an insane pace you may well find it harder to tell them apart at a glance, as their shunpo have the effect of shuffling them around when you're not looking. Though with the stakes as high as they are here it's less like a shell game, and more a strange sort of roulette. You also spare your opponent a thought: if she's anything like you she's waiting to gauge your abilities before taking you down in one overwhelming assault.

You can't let that happen, no matter what line of attack you decide to pursue.

>Figure out quickly which is your Yoruichi and tag out with her. Face her clone instead.
>Attack in Shikai, try and work out what the differences between you and your clone are.
>Go all-out, see if this wanna-be you can keep up with the real deal.
>Try to lure the clones into attacking each other: it worked great against the Privaron Espada.

The same reason elves and orcs can't be friends.

None.

Because any relationship that isn't at least 100 years old is an acquaintanceship at best.

With a final wave of reiatsu you finish your power up sequence.
It was much harder than ever before, probably due to how unused you are to your new body.
But what matters is the end result and it was very much worth it.
It might have taken a lot more energy than before and you also didn't get an equal amount of power in return, in fact the power boost is exactly the same as when you were but a mere Adjuchas, your powered up form is a lot more stable now.
Previously it took a great amount of concentration for the built up power to not kill you but now you feel a much firmer grasp on the ability.
And while previously you felt the need to constantly move around just so you could divert your attention from the ungodly amounts of pain that you were in, now it's much more manageable. It still hurts like a bitch but it's not as bad as before.

Meanwhile Kaname is clearly worried about your little power boost.
"What's this?!"
He says, his voice is almost shaking.

You move your arm around to test the waters, each motion feels like it carries incredible power.
When you swiftly lower your hand a small gust of wind flies off behind you.
This combined with your new appearance gives quite a menacing sight, too bad your audience is blind.

Just as you are about to speak the enclosing pressure of the other arrancars quickly stops you.
The crowd consists of the Espada, Neliels group and your friends, each of them have an expression of awe mixed with fear.
Pesci is the one who speaks up first.
"Well, that explains it.
It's just the Boss going overboard."

"Yeah, but look!
He looks bizarre."
Alex adds to him.

Indeed, your appearance is a bit different from when you were an Adjuchas.
Your armor is still crimson red but now you have much less of it and in addition your veins seem to be glowing as well.
And add to that the bloodshot eyes and the seam emanating from your body and you get quite an intimidating image.

You finally shift your gaze to Tōsen.
"Assault Mode.
This is what I use when I want to make sure someone I dislike dies."

It seems that he is not amused by this, in fact it seems that he managed to regain his composure as well.
"Very well.
I'll relay to Captain Aizen that you are not as much of a waste as I previously believed.
But don't get carried away, you are not as intimidating as you believe yourself to be."
He says while adjusting his goggles.
"And as long as you are not a member of the Espada you are still disposable.
Now, unless you want trouble I recommend you tear that mask of yours away.
I'd rather be done with this fast, I detest being surrounded by monsters."

It seems that he still believes he can order you around.

>Comply and tear off your mask, no need for hostility just yet.

>Attack him. You won't answer to someones servant. (Might result in the Espada stepping in.)
