Goddamn phone flipped the image, we're running d&d 5e

Ok off the top of my head:
>More iron heart surge
>Genderswap is specific fetish stuff. Maybe not that.
>Kitsune clearly need to be shrine maidens

Aside from that, what genre are we hitting? Pure Shonen-shit? Looks like you're going mainly for naruto/bleach to me. As played out as those jokes are, they're the two most cringy I can think of. If so, drop harem.

>Playing Paranoia

The best way to play it is not to even tell the players. Play a normal campaign of whatever you like, but early on in the game, pass each player a secret note with conflicting objectives on it, make sure they don't say what they're doing to everyone else.

For instance, I had a PC fight happen because one player was tasked with finding out what happened to his nephew and the other player was attempting to get revenge on a serial killer. Player trying to get revenge on the killer blows him away at the first chance he gets despite agreeing to take him alive as an agent of the police. Second player goes nuts because the only lead on where his nephew is being held now has a smoking crater for a head.

Third player's goal was to deflect blame for the kiddnapping of the nephew to someone else, which he did a pretty good job of setting up the serial killer to take the fall and using the first guy to prevent any line of questioning.

I just think the setting seems really fun to work with, even ignoring the distinctive game mechanics.

>>47203211
That's kinda shit. Since they don't know they aren't supposed to know stuff, they'd just end up murdered for "treason" the first time they mentioned the sun, etc.

I have it too but I never played it. I also have some of the novels - it was a setting where every writer could introduce own characters that could interact with characters from other writers, if they respected some rules.

In case any Savage World experts or interested parties would like a gander, here's a book I downloaded that gives what appear to be solid rules for making up equipment. Any excuse to toss the AP 2 glorious nippon katana out and replace it with something interesting.

Savage Worlds is utter garbage.

The bennies make short sessions a fucking nightmare because the players never fail a roll. Thanks to the wild die they fail a fuckton less anyway. I usually only have time for 2 to 3 hour sessions. People also forget their bennies meaning they have to mark up their character sheets to keep track. The card initiative is pretty cool but it's another thing you have to remember.

Now, all that can be put down to me being a semi-poorfag and a lazy shit, and also having not much free time to play.

But there's more.

The range system is autistic as fuck if you aren't using miniatures. I am sick to death of converting 24 inches to feet, especially when the game says it's 2 yards instead of 5 feet. Just give the goddamn ranges in inches.

Shotguns are completely overpowered, they only miss if you roll a 1 and deal a fuckton of damage which is made worse by exploding dice. They should have been +1 to hit and 2d8 damage. I know 3d6 lets them do the 3d6/2d6/1d6 shit for long ranges but a straight damage penalty would have worked fine.

The guns in the book are also retarded with a G3 dealing less damage than an AK-47.

Armor piercing is a fucking bitch to remember and is over-used.

The katana is weeaboo wet-dream crap.

The skills are shitty and overspecific as fuck. Fighting Notice Stealth and Shooting are basically the only skills that matter.

The full auto takes goddamn forever to roll for in large battles.

Bennies make the characters unstoppable gods of death.

All non-wildcards get one wounds so even fighting larger creatures is just hit-or-miss, there's no meaty boss fights without arbitrary wild card shit.

I can go on. But OP you are really better off dropping Savage Worlds and picking up GURPS.

Well, that was a lot of words to explain why you're a faggot, anon, and that was very brave of you to understand yourself so well, but this isn't about exploring your personal demons, so next time, try to stay on the fucking topic, okay?

Ignoring the rules is the best way to play 3.5.

In other words the best way to play 3.5 to not play 3.5 or PF

Why can't you jump during a charge? Leap Attack only increases your power attack bonus damage.

>>47200777
Charging is a full round action, it takes up your movement and attack.

I mean, there's always teeth for knives.

For armor, scales could make, well, good scale armor. Larger scales might well be used as shields. Smaller scales could make arrowheads if they're sharpened. The leathery skin of the wings could make for a lighter leather armor for someone who doesn't want to be weighed down by plate.

Claws, teeth, horns, spines.

So I did a conversion, that, as far as I can tell, is legal under the new rules.

This is a assault enforcer on a monowheel scout bike. He can also count as an Enforcer sergeant or captain on monowheel if i want.

And as far as I can tell, the enforcer does not lose his jetpack rule. So its an enforcer with a jetpack that has 1-5 speed.

Dem moldlines though.

I assume he essentially "gets off" the bike to use his jetpack. Then he recalls the bike when he next reaches the ground.

So is this essentially AoS but a lot less stupid?
