Remember MTG will probably be your biggest customers. Have a tournament regularly scheduled.

I say that as a 40k player.

You should call the store "Closing in Six Months."

If thats your floorplan? Add a jackass bar to the front entry, so that someone who runs in and grabs stuff has to vault it or flip on his head like a retard on the way out. It helps minimize theft by making it more inconvenient.

Also, a camera pointed at faces on the way in that takes shots would be a great deterrent as well; "Smile, youre being filmed for security purposes!"

Enters a triathlon but gets disqualified for using the gun against the other participants

sounds kawaii dude

he goes to create a plague that kills things then reanimates their skeleton to infect more things

it only works on dogs and the skeleton dogs only attack other dogs. the skeleton dogs are adorable as fuck when interacting with people

One of the very few things I ever liked about an oft touted, Generic rpg, was that psionics were very subtle and took no energy, but the effects were nothing to write home about. Meanwhile magic was big and flashy and powerful, but could quickly leave a mage helpless from exhaustion.

Be balanced.

>>45950740
They shouldn't differ, they should just be a branch of magic revolving around mental effects.

>>45950072
If the player's cool with it, do it.

>>45950201
All of the players are fine with the concept of losing characters, which is why they all made backups at the beginning of the campaign. This would just be me stacking the odds in my favour.

Just make sure the odds are stacked against them but don't force the bad end if they somehow get through whatever ordeal you have planned.

The inky black of Luna's swirling night wraps and weaves against an unexpected intruder in the dark woods of the Pruden wood. A glowing, ravaging invader that bakes and pops the flesh of a great old tree, its cries heard long and far as it burns on, the flames bound and contained firmly to the confines of its being. They rage on, furious and persistent without any regard to the tree's cries.

You clutch your ears at its screams, your heart unable to bear the sad cry of the tree. “Please stop...” You and Belinda say. “Stop burning... Please...” You both whisper with tears swelling I your eyes, running down your cheeks as you writhe in agony.

You'd done already what you could to drag away the liberated women from the burnt oak, yet you hear the true voice of the tree spike and resound.

You feel a pair of hands upon your shoulders as you're brought up from your curling fetal position. Blinking back the stinging tears you can see Odette's Luna-stained hair aglow with the orange flame. She looks you fiercly in the eyes, scrapes and scratches dashed across her face, “Reap- Beli are you all right? What's wrong? Are you hurt?” Her eyes glance down to the other women, “:Are they...?”

“No, No... We're fine...” You whine, grabbing onto Odette and holding her for comfort. “The tree, she's screaming... I can't...”

“Calm down, it's okay...”

You blink back the tears, and try to focus, pushing back the scream of the tree. “Where is Biz? Are you... Are you alright?”

“We chased the Satire here when you ran off. He abandoned the fight after throwing you in the tree and I pursued him. Biz is...”

“So many ladies... kidnapped.” You hear Biz say from behind you, “I can't believe that foul beast had taken so many.”

>>45948595
ya done goofed

this, all of this is fucked.

what experience do you guys have with large encounters?

>>45948595
Well you could just go along with it. Switch up major battles to be army vs medium group/summons. Might take longer but it'd be cool to do a big-ass war. Try and manage it to where they'd be low on man power by the time the last few guys show up.

>>45948040
It depends entirely on what kind of people you plan on playing against.

You could take the deck above and if you have people at a similar powerlevel to yourself and it would be a ton of fun to play with.

However, if you were to take the above list to a random FNM and ask for a game, you would probably lose 9/10 games, and the games you win would probably be because your opponent got mana screwed. It's simply too weak, there are no particularely strong synergies that give you an edge, you just play a mediocre minion each turn.

Now, the deck concept you have IS an actual good and proper decktype and is one of the cheapest viable decks in modern.

The deck is called Mono Green Stompy. Here's a list:

Creatures (26)

4 Dryad Militant $0.60
4 Experiment One $4.88
4 Avatar of the Resolute $4.96
4 Kalonian Tusker $0.92
4 Strangleroot Geist $1.48
2 Dungrove Elder $9.96
4 Leatherback Baloth $7.64

Spells (12)

4 Aspect of Hydra $0.60
4 Rancor $9.96
4 Vines of Vastwood $3.24

Lands (22)
20 Forest $0.00
2 Treetop Village $5.90

Total price $50.14 (Does not include sideboard, which can be made very cheap or very expensive depending on preferences and budget)

This deck is far far FAR stronger than the one you have posted above.

And another question, how much is the person asking for the deck you posted? Because the value of the cards listed is almost zero. If you met me in person I would probably give you every single card in that list for free.

>>45948379

I'm not sure I want to drop $50 on a deck. This may not be a suitable hobby for me after all. I mean, if it's pay-to-win, where's the fun in that?

I was kind of hoping there was a more casual scene with this game.

>And another question, how much is the person asking for the deck you posted?

$10

>>45948379
Nice guy.

>>45947721
Bump for interest. Also, does anyone have ideas/names for a utility corporation? They're not evil but more like business is business. You do good for them and they do good for you.

>>45947721
Im gonna run my first game of technoir tomorrow. That sounds pretty much eactly like what your looking for. But it also is Lore-Light s in, it has almost no lore at all. so you might wanna combine the system with an already existing lore. (like I was thinking about the netrunner one)

>>45947721
My rules aren't finished but you find a copy of a simplified Interlock system here:

Funny enough, I used the same pic in the booklet.

Alright boys role me a D10 and let us get this thing rolling

I thought his habit of explicitly basing parts of Discworld off our reality wasn't as funny as he thought it was.

Nor did I like his pushing of multiculturalism and multiethnic cities and their alleged "advantages".

That out of the way, his comedy could be pretty good; I remember the creation of the platypus in his novel about Fourecks.

>>45946936
Damn, you're making me sad.

Frankly, I've been putting off reading the Tiffany Aching books just to not have it all end. But I know I have to. Everything has to end.

I got something for you OP.

It doesn't do backstory, but it gives you a personality for your character to work with, and with some creativity you can create really cool and unique character minds from seemingly unrelated or conflicting emotions. It also accounts for the fact that even villains have redeeming traits and even heroes have flaws.

Also, here's a little thing for making personalities.

On the dusty outskirts of a desert city, a tender exchange. He hangs off the side of his trucker cab, one hand already inside, long brown hair billowing in the wind. She stands before him in a powder blue dress that matches her eyes. He's not sure how much gold is left in Nevada but he'd be damned if there isn't a little glitter in the air that shines around her face like the surface of a lake.

“How can I ever repay you?”

He smiles, slides a massive knuckle down the contour of her jaw without speaking. A tear wells in her eye. All he's done for this girl is take her from her home to a modern day Sodom where she'll spend the next twenty years a prostitute of the lowest sort before turning her back on that life for a new one...

“Just follow your heart,” he tells her. There's no explicit guilt as he climbs the rest of the way into the cab and turns the key in the ignition. Nobody said making nuns was easy or pretty but there's more in common with the sausage grinding process than he'd like to admit.

He's half a mile away when his radio crackles to life.

“Fish, this is Loaves. Do you read me, over?”

“I read you loud and clear, Loaves. What's up?”

“Word is there's an order for you to pickup at a depot down on 66, dispatch says they couldn't get a hold of you any other way.”

“Not a problem, Loaves, thanks for relaying that.”

Another pick-up? So soon?

The long-haired trucker shifts uncomfortably on his beads. He'll have to turn around...

A little while later and he's cruising past a diner not far from where he dropped the girl off earlier. It gives him an uneasy feeling.

>Keep going, dispatch expects you to be on time.
>Stop off, see what that feeling is about.
>Write-In

>Keep going, dispatch expects you to be on time.

Is Craig Wescoe Sam Black's asexual genderfluid life partner?

>>45944251
Jewish ladies actually loved playing it for a long time.
Also Mahjong is nice.

And as long as the restaurant doesn't have a problem, then there's no issue. They might even be friends or family of the staff or owners.

I don't have a problem with legalized gambling.

>>45944251
That's pretty gay.

Bump, I love these.

I'lll give you guys some ideas to start with. but please feel free to contribute ideas outside of this box:

Dino Valley: a jungle valley in the mountains, filled with multitudes of dinosaurs. a mysterious giant egg sits atop a perch somewhere in the valley (the north end? the center?)... what's inside of it? what is it's "purpose"?

what is a good special item/weapon/treasure for a dungeon cave in Dino Valley? what's a good boss?

what are some misc. activities/puzzles/obstacles in the valley outside of the dungeon?

>>45946055
and again but I'm afraid this has lost all momentum
