What's your favourite published setting and why? Doesn't have to be D&D.

Personally I like the Realms. The sheer amount of published material means that the lore is plentiful. You can run pretty much anything you want. Players also seem to enjoy the familiarity of it.

>What are some top tier decks I can get on MTGO/Paper?
http://www.mtggoldfish.com/metagame/pauper

>BUT I WANT TO SEE ALL VIABLE DECKS!
http://tappedout.net/users/fruuty/deck-folders/

>Which rules should I follow?
If you don't already have some homebrew version with friends, follow the MTGO card pool and banlist (and please spread this to your friends that start playing with you). Currently the only place Pauper is officially supported by Wizards is online, and they have a card pool and banlist, therefore that is the format we should be using offline on paper as well, since decks and cards can transfer to games between each other with no confusion.

>WAHHH THATS TOO HARD WHERE...
http://www.mtg-hunter.com
The bottom left has a box, select MTGO Pauper, all cards in the card pool and banlist are taken into account.

>What deck should I use?
Ask in the thread!

>Is MTGO worth it?
If you have no local paper competition, but want to play a vast amount of Pauper, it can't be beat, even if it is a clunky GUI, you learn quickly.

Some good decks for newbies include but are not limited to:
>Burn
>Elves
>Goblins
>Stompy
>Slivers
>Affinity
>Mono U control
>UB Teachings

When we last left off, I had somehow managed to improvise a bomb out of a waterproof electric car battery to kill a bunch of fish.

Before that. I found this Raft Otter standing next to me in one of the rooms. He seems to like me at least, can't say I return it.

And even before that, I got trapped on this base that I was supposed to salvage. My co-worker is dead. There are shitloads of angry monsters swimming around. Most of the base is underpowered and not working. And my only reliable contact can only talk to me through Morse code.

The plan right now is to find the Chief Engineer's Keycard so I can unlock the bulkhead leading into security. That's why I did the thing with the bomb.

But most importantly, I seriously need a fucking cup of coffee.

I am interested in investing some extra money into a nice MTG deckbox and playmat so I felt like it would a good opportunity to create a thread discussing the peripherals you use while playing. Did you spend a little extra $$ to add a little bling to your game? Especially interested in custom goods/artwork (even if the artwork is borrowed from another artist).

Dice & life counters
Deckboxes & playmats, Card sleeves
Cases and carry bags

I need some /tg/-approved fantasy anime (or any animated show), but most of what I come across is too edgy or contrived.

I just what something basic, where the heroes are heroes, the castles are old, and wizards wear pointy hats. Doesn't have to be purely D&D European fantasy, but I'll take anything that feels like an honest to god proper noblebright adventure.

Hey folks. This is Mr. Blue Sky, lead developer for VeloCITY - The Wind in Your Hair, the Jet Set Radio-inspired homebrew involving barreling down hills at top speed without a motor and without a care. Long time no see under this moniker.

As always, to find the latest version of the rules, you can always download the PDF from the 1d4chan website at https://1d4chan.org/wiki/VeloCITY

I know it's been a long time since I've updated the system; the last update to the system was marked for last November. I apologize it's been so long since I've done anything with the system, at least on the surface. To make up for it, I've got a small update for you. I've added a bunch more sample scenes you can use for GMing, on top of proofreading and an extra music reference link on the title page. I know it may not be much, but I feel obligated to add at least something. I still love this project and am glad it's lasted as long as it has.

As always, any questions, stories, characters, suggestions, art and anything else are all welcome. I apologize again for the long delay, and I hope you enjoy!

Welcome everyone, new and old players alike! This is Tundra civ, a civ thread series in a fictional, non-fantasy setting where you play as the rulers of the White Republic, a nation in a world similar to our own.
Check out the pastebin for story, technologies, stats etc (updating it right now)

And an archive of previous threads if you want to skim through some of them.

Previously on Tundra civ:
We spent a bit of time on internal development and strengthening our military, after which a series of important events took place which defined The Crisis of Summer in 1194 After the Exile. Negotiations between the Axis nations and the New Pajit Union were successful, which led to the last remnants of the Organisation being flushed out of hiding - or so we thought. What occured were a series of clashes, covert operations and terror atacks around the globe, during which the Organisation secured a key to a Vault underneath Vajni. From there our enemies unleashed a mighty warmashine - an enormous flying battleship, which we dubbed "the doomship". It was only through the sacrifices of many thousands of soldiers that we were finally able to bring the doomship down, just as it had entered the outskirts of Centerhold, our capital.

Sup /tg/

So I have been on a bit of a wild west kick lately, watching old westerns and Hell on Wheels and it got me thinking. In /tg/'s humble opinion what is the best system to run a wild west game in?

Welcome to the flake thread!

Previously:
Avacyn's death is STILL dumb and sad. This glorious fucking post >>47529018. Innistrad is FUCKED. Shenanigans. New domain flake. The Anti-Phyrexian Taskforce (APT) is formed.

Previous thread:>>47526193

I'm going to respectfully ask that we avoid calling anyone who criticizes our flakes Chillbrass. I'm also going to respectfully ask that we avoid criticizing lore-breaking flakes for more than 10 posts. I'm all for creativity, but generally these posts just tend to repeat the same arguments again and again and shit up the thread. Some shitposting is to be expected. But too much makes the thread not worth it. So let's all work together to make the flake thread better.

Writefagging last time:

Anna is still getting screwed over by Belloski: >>47537655


REMINDER:

If you want ANYTHING to go in the repo, just summon me. Otherwise I will only put writefagging and sheets in the repo.

Also, I added the blank template to the ALL FLAKESHEETS folder.

To summon me simply say
>OP OP, I SUMMON THEE. PLACE THIS FILE IN THE REPOSITORY.
And I will come.

An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.
Start here: http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/

>That sounds cool, how can I get into it?
Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial: https://web.archive.org/web/20160314105757/http://jyenicolson.net/exalted/. It'll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

>Gosh that was fun. There were a lot of lesbians though. How do I find a group?
Roll20 and the Game Finder General here on /tg/. With the new edition, though, chances are more games will crop up.
