>What was the most fun you had playing plebshit?
When I was 14 or 15, I felt pretty shitty after a rough day at school, so (after some prompting from Mum), my little brother asked me if I wanted to play Risk. Also, my little brother and I played Monopoly with our granddad in the back garden, under the big tree. I still have those games somewhere.
>What's that one game from your childhood that you still kinda like, even though it was clearly dogshit?
Snuggly Bugs. It's basically babby's first Carcassonne, but I played it with my future niece-in-law, and she seemed to like it.
>What's your favourite British board game?
You mean the designer, or the subject matter...? Either way, it's Ankh Morpork.

I think Miniature Market does something along those lines. I've never tried it so I don't know how it works

I've been meaning to buy / read that book OP, thanks for reminding me.

>>What was the most fun you had playing plebshit?
UNO / Parker Bros / Milton Bradly shiz from when I was a kid. My brother and Mom would play games and we'd have a good time.

>>What's that one game from your childhood that you still kinda like, even though it was clearly dogshit?
2nd Edition Talisman from college. Yeah, it's got a lot that's wrong with it, but it's still something my group plays for the hell of it once in a while.

>>What's your favorite British board game?

I'm... I'm not sure. Though I'd wager a guess it was probably designed by some chap who looked like pic related..

One of my characters (a gnome tinkerer that invented a shotgun) ended up staring at an explosion and going permanently blind. some shit after and he made a deal with a mystic being to lose his sense of touch to get his eyesight back. that also made things really complicated (the DM dint have a fucking clue how to make that work mechanicly or what the fuck to do)

so after a failed quest to find some kind of fairy caused by a player using thunderwave in a cave and causing a cave-in killing the fairy and a deck of many things-devil killing all the other possible fairies my character was doomed to be a burden to everyone else.

So i retired him in a city run by a godlike figure and to this day he's still trying to tinker and invent shit as he teaches his ways in his little workshop in town.

Looking back at it i guess its not that bad of an end for him i suppose...

Very first time rping, dm thought it'd be fun to mess with me. Told me to make a normal character, so I did. Everyone else made setting-relevant characters (hitmen) so I was hilariously out of my element. Game devolved into making my character suffer. One player seduced my character's fiance, the others start a shootout at his job and he ends up shot multiple times. The police show up and blame my character, beating him within inches of his life. Last thing he sees is his boss standing over him, telling him he's fired.

The worst ending to any character:

The sessions just stop, and they are permanently locked in place, unable to continue forward towards the BBEG, and unable to fail and be remembered for the great things you did and attempted to do.

Especially the version of him in Marvel Adventures. Really, Marvel Adventures is just great all-around. You've got a Reed Richards who actually helps the world, a Hank Pym who's perfectly emotionally stable, and a Spider-Man who can manage to catch a break once in a while. Everyone's a lot happier in the Marvel Adventures universe, if the Marvel jump had an option to choose your continuity like the DC jump did I'd go there.

FOOL, JUMPER DOES AS HE PLEASES

There is a hobgoblin army on our door steps, we need every able bodied adult to take a pike and defend the town while the women-folk, children, old, and sick are loaded into wagons to try and make a break for it.

You kill 3/4 of the characters in the siege.

There is a haunted place, go investigate.
Features either single strong enemy or literally nothing besides environmental hazards.

>>47153311
Is this "because the players don't want to be Lv 1 characters?"

Because, well, maybe don't make them be level 1 characters?

>by definition
Just because you say so doesn't make it true.

Sounds like a loser talk to me.

I like settlers of catan.

Some have questioned whether Retribution or Love Can Bloom is canon. I say, "Why cannot both be canon?"

...Probably because of NERD RAAAAAAGE.

But I use throwing swords. A limitless supply of throwing swords.

And I use throwing spears.

Samurai are super gay though.

Truly and fully annoyed, I bring my loudly-ringing phone out of my pocket and glare at it.

"Dammit..." I mutter under my breath.
"Who's calling?" Charlotte asks.

Aaaaand it's Irene. Which means that it -may- be something important.


>might as well put it on speakerphone

Charlotte is already on edge as it is and hearing Irene's voice wont likely improve that, assuming she can't hear the phone conversation to begin with.

You mean the one with 400+ replies?

My reply died in the last thread, so I'll ask again. Would anyone actually have a problem with someone using a marine codex (specifically Black Templar rules) with sister of battle miniatures? My new LGS seems to have an issue with it, but aren't giving any reason other than "it is dumb", while my former FLGS was perfectly fine with it.

Fuck you, It's teff-ling.

>>47146757
Currently playing a tiefling in my group. I'm mostly treated in character as an omen to be avoided and mistrusted, but I keep out of everyone's hair and my money is still good. It also helps that I can play voice of reason to the boisterous Drow face of the party, so I seem tame by comparison. Plus being charismatic and intelligent helps. Got bullied pretty hard by the knights of the barony we're in though. I comfort myself with the thoughts of their families being dragged across thousands of blades by Nightmares while they watch once I rule them. Did I mention that this was a secretly evil party?

Also it's pronounced _the game_

>>47146757
Its tief-ling. No idea what you muricans consider ambiguous about that.

Funnily enough, shadowrun turns into like 95% bebop whenever I play it.

Especially the beef and brocolli, but with no beef because YOU FLUBBED THE JOB YOU ASSHOLE part.

In settings where the Fey are portrayed as hating iron, it's because the Fey are otherworldly and not of this reality. Iron is a base metal and heavily contradicts their ethereal nature.

Considering how utterly fucked people with allergy of their own body tissues are, they better be.

Or perhaps that's where the constitution penalty came from. Fucking fey messing around with the forces of evolution...
