Buy it you faggot

>>47431138
You know, you could have just checked Wolfram Alpha for this, but the math isn't too bad so I'll do it anyway. KE=1/2mv^2. Standard units is to use kilograms and meters per second. So KE=(.5)(13800000)(23.333), or 1609977000 Joules. Translate that to an 85 kg human and they'll have a velocity of 6154.82 meters per second. That's about eighteen times the speed of sound.

>>47431329
Wait, shit, left out the exponentiation. And here I was going on about the math being simple, what a silly blunder. Okay, that's 37565593341 Joules, 29730.91 meters per second for an 85 kg human, or about 87.44 times the speed of sound.

>>47431368
Thanks! I'll be sure to notify the GM once this happens next session.

That was a waste of $18. Should have just spent that on packs. That's what I did and look what I found in the first five boosters of the set.

Warning. Image will most likely turn out sideways due to how retarded iPhones are.

It was 12$ on TCGplayer but I would buy packs if I had better luck with them lol

At least it produced some nice memes.

>>47430239
Yep

>>47430239
For focusing on things other than mechanics/net decking to win? Not at all.

Not seeing an issue with how dumb the lore is at a lot of points? Still no, though you're closer in this case.

>>47430285
Again not sure what parts of the lore are dumber than any other fantasy literature

>>47429352
Check out Classic Fantasy. It turns RuneQuest 6 into a dungeon crawler.

Also, RuneQuest 6 has brotherhoods and cults that give benefits for higher level members and adds another dimension to professions/cultures.

>>47429352
>Do you think classes are necessary for you to enjoy a role-playing game?
No, but they help players get into the role quickly and enjoy optimization.
>or do you prefer free advancement?
I prefer skill based systems without classes. Although, both types can be fun.

>>47429352
Classless please

>>47426600

Pretty much. They've been interpreted as lizards by D&D (and establish a draconic connection somehow), rat-creatures by Warcraft, dogs by the Japanese for some reason, and now what looks like a gopher.

Honestly, a gopher actually makes sense to be as a design, as they actually tunnel, which is a key trait of kobolds in general.

On a similar not, gnolls used to be just kind of ugly dudes as well, but they seem to have been universally accepted as a kind of humanoid hyena as society acquaints itself with the hyena's rather disgusting habits.

>>47426600
Is it actually preferable to have every fictional being default to ugly person or pretty person? I think not, I like when people use their imagination to think up different thinks.

>>47426891
>ugly person or pretty person
You forgot animal person.

>Be me.
>Be running in a Pathfinder Game
>DM is pretty good DM. He's a bit of an Inna Woods DM though, is really hard nosed about making us track our provisions and supplies down to the last arrow and inch of rope.
>We're all really into Dungeon Meshi so we don't mind it at all. We'll just eat monsters and wild berries and shit

Party is:
>Me. Human Ranger. I maxed out my survival right away and am the primary source of food for the party. I'm also the cause of this stupid death.
>Human Bard. Our keymaster and party face. The player plays his character as a bit of a lecher but isn't creepy about it. He's usually getting punched or slapped for his efforts and takes it in stride.
>Female aasimar Paladin with 20 Charisma, which apparently makes her the most beautiful woman any of our characters have ever seen and a primary target of the Bard's advances.
>An elf wizard who is totally not Marcille.

The funny (and also sad) death:
>We've been hunting bullywugs at the behest of a minor duke.
>The Frog men have been terrorizing his lands and eating his people.
>It's basically a wilderness hex-crawl as we look for their hideout.
>I fuck up my Perception check and Bullywogs ambush us.
>We win, but get chewed up kind of bad.
>Make camp for the night.
>Me: "I roll survival to gather supplies for tonight."
>I roll a 1.
>Fuck
>This DM was a huge stickler about not letting players see each other's rolls except in combat. So nobody else knows I fucked up.
>DM: "Game is quite scarce, but you do manage to find some wild mushrooms."

>DM is grinning ear-to-ear.
>Shit
>Get back to camp. Party decides to make wild mushroom and onion soup.
>I'm not allowed to object because that would be meta-gaming. The DM has a point, my character is not aware that he fucked up.
>Dinner goes by relatively normally
>I'm bracing myself for the worst.
>As we discuss who will be on watch that night, the DM interrupts us.
>"Hey guys, remember the mushroom soup you just ate?"
>Me "Let me guess. Deathcaps? What's the Fort save?"
>DM: "Oh no, those weren't deathcaps. Give me Will saves.
>Turns out those were HALLUCINOGENIC MUSHROOMS.
>ENTIRE PARTY NOW TRIPPING BALLS
>We roll our will saves
>Myself, Bard and Paladin all fail
>Literally only Not!Marcille passes.
>Paladin: "Bugs! BUGS! BUUUUUUUUUGS!"
>Big-titty, blonde paladin starts tearing her clothes off.
>Bard can't help but watch.
>I see two pixies appear from nowhere in front of me.
>"I'm Midge!"
>"and I'm Madge"
>"WE'RE HERE TO STEAL YOUR NOSE!"
>And then I hallucinate that they do.
>The paladin is now completely naked and has jumped in the stream next to our campsite
>The Bard is hopping along behind her as he struggles with his boots. "Wait for me!"
>My Ranger is now chasing imaginary pixies around the campsite screaming at them to give him back his nose.
>Not Marcille can only watch, dumbfounded as her companions go insane.
>DM is now cackling like a madman
>DM rolls. "Uh-oh"

>Three ogres appear, attracted by the noise.
>Only Not!Marcille has her gear to hand as we're all too busy freaking out.
>Not!Marcille starts to retreat and hits the lead Ogre with the last fireball spell she had prepared.
>Good hit!
>However, the Ogre survived. On his turn the extremely pissed-off Ogre charges Not!Marcielle and swings his sickle.
>GM's face falls and he lifts his screen
>20
>Rolls a gain
>Another 20
>Rolls an absurd number of dice. Turns out this Ogre had class-levels.
>Not!Marcille is gutted where she stands and falls dead.
>Hearing our friends death-scream gives us new Will Saves
>We all pass this time.
>A naked paladin, naked bard and a tripping ranger regroup and manage to kill one of the Ogres.
>The others retreat, but take Not!Marcille's corpse with them
>MFW our friend ended up in an Ogre's stewpot because we were too busy tripping on shrooms to help.

Since this is a Gen thread, discussion is open and questions can be answers in short order.

Oh and on a slight aside , anyone have any builds/classes they would like to see in the future ? I know there is currently a plan for a STR/TEK class but another one would not hurt to implement.

>>47419587

Lightning bros. Alternatively, a greatweapon class like the Onion knights? Not sure how well those would work in this game though.

This is the campaign's current posse for Deadlands: Hell on Earth

Cyrus Twain
-Harrowed Gunslinger
-Good ole' southern boy
- Has a crow that just follows him around
- Obscures most of his face with a bandana to hide the rotting

Eddie Flint
-Gets beat to near-death semi-regularly
-Party face
-Rides a motorcycle named Debra
-has a gambling addiction

Daniel North
-Templar badass
-Wears improvised armor that resembles a Roman Legionnaire
-Arrogant but quiet about it
-Searching for a magic sword

Townes Harrison
-Mutant Doomsayer
-Used to be an accountant
-Now he shoots radiation from his hands
-Wears football gear under his robes
-Free market puns

Theodore
-Creepy child syker
-Can't read the written word, but can read minds
-Total glass cannon
-Third best driving ability in the party

Maralah Tsosie
-Disgraced Sioux Shaman
-Deals with corrupted toxic spirits instead of nature spirits
-basket case
-She has a pet smog spirit

Liz Grant
-Chemistry Teacher turned cyborg
-Former Combine specops, now a deserter
-Ace pilot
-Got beat up by potato zombies

They're pretty dysfunctional. The Templar doesn't trust the Toxic Shaman, the gunslinger's demon might take over at any second, the Doomsayer worships radiation and mutation, the Syker cries and blows things up, the Cyborg cries and blows things up, but with guns, and Eddie tends to go from Highway Star to Highway Stain

>>47414856
What system are you playing?

We haven't started the campaign yet but it looks like everyone is playing short characters. Either a dwarf of a gnome. One chucklefuck thought this was especially funny and rolled a human midget

DM said he was going to put any important plot items on reasonably high shelves so we couldn't get it.

Two of Emeron’s Silver Knights stood at attention to the entrance of the dungeons, and another four in each corner of the jailer’s room. They kept a silent watch only occasionally marred by the hellish shrieks beneath them, manifesting in twitches of discomfort and wayward glances.

Palme cleared his throat. “As you wish. The clothes the assassin wore during his attack bear the colors and sigil of the Pullmans.” He tossed a scrap of ragged cloth onto the table. Carefully stitched atop a striped cloth of red and white, the wings of the Great Eagle were spread open in flight. “Damning evidence to be sure, if it weren’t for the fact that the torturer got him to confess to stripping the clothes and armor off a corpse.”

The prince’s face clouded as he made a noise of distaste. “A man will say anything to escape the torturer’s knives.”

“True enough, but this one was telling the truth.” Palme’s smile was anything but pleasant. “I’ll stand on it as Lord Commander of the Crownguard when we have a formal trial. Assuming he doesn’t bleed out on the dungeon come sunrise.”

His face remained unchanged. “Then Lord Kieran has no involvement in this plot.” It was not a question as much as it was an affirmation.

“There’s no sure guarantee, but the evidence points to their innocence. He is among one of your family’s closest allies. The Pullmans have nothing to gain and everything to lose if they were involved in a conspiracy of this…severity.”

“…very well,” Emeron responded. “I will speak to Lord Kieran in the morning and inform him of what’s happened…but that does not explain the presence of the alchemist’s fire. The only thing that’s keeping that bastard alive is the question as to who provided him with the damn fire.”

“Agreed,” he nodded. “That is the most concerning question.”

“I would not be worried for a large vase or jar. That limits the possibilities to the other four great houses. But a small flask the size of a thumb…even the lowliest baron could scrounge enough arums to pay for that amount of chemical.”

“Which is why this will take time,” Palme sighed, regarding the door leading down to the torture chambers. “He was not about to give any names the last time I was down there. That makes it all the harder for Armand to find the right spot to cast his agents. Of course, we could spread our network as wide as we could, but-”

An armored gauntlet crashed onto the table, disturbing the contents pre-arranged on the faded wood. “Someone tried to kill my sister,” Prince Emeron Crowmond snarled, a fierce look in his eyes. “In a time where all our actions, mine own especially, are watched closely by both nobles and peasantry alike. We cannot afford to look weak, now of all times. The Crown will have its justice, and it must come swift and without mercy. I will see every one of these blackguards’ heads mounted atop pikes come the next moon.”

The two knights standing outside came at the sound of the noise, swords half-drawn before Palme waved for them to stand down. At the sight of their prince unharmed and merely inflamed, they nodded once, going back to their duty outside.

Eventually, Emeron exhaled deeply, retracting his fist and running a hand through sweat-streaked hair. “Gods above, I’m sorry. The journey home was long, cold and miserable by all other accounts. And just when I find respite and reprieve from sorting out the troubles of the Empire...we have this mess to deal with…”

What are the main activities in Beast: The Primordial other than:

"Enacting your character's revenge fantasies" (which are also the player's)
"Being an otherkin"
"Doing whatever you want, because you have no pesky morality mechanic"
and
"Beating up superpowered strawmen 'Heroes'"

?

>>47531907
>What are your biggest inspirations for your games?
Literally anything.
Anime I haven't even watched.
Video games I've barely played
Movies I can't remember
Songs with intentionally recontextualized lyrics
Television shows I've seen the trailer of.

Earlier I was thinking how Agent 47 is a Demon (perhaps with an Exploit that lets him done temporary Covers), and the ICA is an Agency. I'm also trying to decide whether an Assassin's Creed style Conspiracy that delves into genetic memory through the Temenos to gain Endowments or a Compact based on people who where the "final girl" of a Slasher attack is more fitting to submit to Monica.

is there a more superfluous item in existance?

>>47528487
>that Russian TTRPG that dedicates two pages to physical dice rolling rules, requires players to roll on a specific dice tray and use a desk bell to pass turns

>>47528487
As someone who has had dice go rolling off the table and disappear under the oven never to be seen again, I can assure you that dice trays are NOT superfluous.
