You are Tom Gainer. You and your Minotaur friend, Jim Knots, are staring down the street gang known as the Talon and their hired Villain. Only problem is that the asshole looks like a white guard rail pylon trying to be gangster. Its... pretty annoying. On top of that, he is coining names that you really really want to punch him in the mouth for, but you have NO clue what the jackass is capable of. Other than the jackass, the Talon are done. You and Jim (mostly you) have put the fear of god into them.

You and Jim stare at him for what feels like hours before he makes a move. He walks closer to you both, hand in front of his crotch like he is both trying to protect it and hold his pants up so he can actually move.

"Now, ya'll I consider mahself a good sport wen it comes ta Supah fights. One-on-one style. I'mma show you why they call me Py-Riot!"

You think to yourself that he gave himself that shitty-ass Super name.

So I really love glitches and bugs in vidya and I have wondered how can I get something like that on a tabletop game.
has anyone else tried it? What did you do and how did it went?

I do have an idea of my own, you just roll dice and based on the results the GM change something in the game but each number in the dice has a fixed value, like 6 on the first die is always a character stat and 4 on the second die always reduces whatever value the first die had.

most of the glitches in tabletop have to do with loopholes, like villager rail guns or fist wizards
>>
>>45824664
Stalker universe would probably fit the bill. The original Roadside Picnic stuff has a lot of glitchy-like things, undying constructs that just resemble humans doing their normal routine stuff like a robot, artifacts that do a lot of strange things, and anomalies that make all kinds of wonky phenomenon happen.
>>
>>45824664
Glitches are unintended products of the processing in video games. The decision making in tabletop is done by a human, not a computer.

So equivalent of a glitch would be something like the GM forgetting a feat when calculating the damage to a monster.

To reproduce that, you'd have get your GM to make mistakes, which would be a sick move. Please don't be a duck to your GM.

What you're calling for is just another mechanic.

OK, so the last thread was interesting and it seems like this thread would be better served to redirect our energies and focus.

What setups are you using, brushes & paints, and how are you going about painting your minis?

Post progress and anything else you deem relevant. Post minis that you're working on and try explaining what you did, how you got there, and where you're going.

As much as it pains you to waste another vital ten seconds, you can't afford to fight blind. You dart back up the slippery slope as best you can. Two seconds fumbling the Asternian Lens from your pocket. Another ten spent staring into the mesmerizing depths, watching the light bleed from your vision in rivulets of shadowy liquid. By the time you break contact with the lens your eyes are stinging, so another two or three moments are lost to wiping the tears from your eyes on the back of your sleeve.

Ordinarily you don't need to sweat the small stuff like seconds spent. In this case, however, the time lost has allowed the situation to evolve dramatically.

You catch a glimpse of the eyes first. Reflective like a jungle cat's, ringed with glowing red. Ten? Maybe more. They're clustered along the walls and ceiling at uneven intervals, watching you curiously.

As your eyes adjust you can see the outlines swim into view. The figures are humanoid, but only roughly so. Squat, powerfully muscled bodies sporting two pairs of arms ending in wicked claws meant for digging through earth hang from the lichen around you. Mishapen heads filled to the brim with needle-like teeth and topped with a pair of beady eyes complete the package. Perhaps two feet long from head to toe, you suck in a sharp inhalation as you catch sight of the mob.

You don't know what they are, but with teeth like that you doubt very much that they're friendly.

The Blessing of the Elder Turtle shimmers reflexively into being as your core muscles tense. The first of the clawed gnomes bounces along the cavern floor behind you, pushed away from the covert assault it was attempting by the expanding dome of cyan light. At the sight of the tortoise-shell sphere the chattering imps seem to become enraged. Several of them drop onto the dome, pounding away with spade-like fingers at the joints between panels of electric energy.

You catch sight of one tiny figure crawling rapidly into a small tunnel, likely going for reinforcements.

Not a great spot to get swarmed. Your footing is treacherous at best and these cavern's aren't the definition of "stable". Time for a game plan.

You lash out with Modi reflexively, driving the sharpened spike at the end of your spear into the gut of one of the crawlers swarming over the dome around you. Your other hand draws your short sword reflexively from its sheathe. Even as you withdraw your spear arm you turn to block a scything claw. The troglodyte recoils from the sight of your naked blade, withdrawing its arm from the tiny hole it has punched in your barrer and retreating to the mossy cavern wall.

Bulldozing your way through the crowd while keeping your barrier intact will require some concentration. At least you have a few backup plans in the event things go south. Modi hums in your grasp. The veins in your right arm writhe in the crowded darkness.

You charge.

You are Tsukuda Ryouta, a Shinigami of the 12th Division with the unique position of an investigator of abnormal occurrences.

You have just finished your mission in Northern Rukongai's 4th District. There, an escaped Quincy, a subject of Kurotsuchi Mayuri's experiments, murdered Shinigami and terrorized the locals as a leader of a violent gang. In the end, without the techniques that made him a Quincy, he stood no chance against a proper Shinigami.

You waited for the reinforcements to arrive, and they helped you haul off two relevant bodies: Matsu Shingen - the killer in question - and a man named Arata. A few days after your return to the Seireitei, you're summoned for a debriefing in your Captain's seldom used office. After hearing your report on what had occurred during the mission, Urahara Kisuke explains his own findings.

"Matsu Shingen's body is proving to be a valuable insight into the previous Captain's forbidden research. But, unfortunately, I'm already feeling pressure from the higher-ups who want all traces of it gone, so I can't dwell on it for long. It's no wonder - after all, Kurotsuchi has successfully spliced together a Hollow and Quincy. The results aren't practical by any means, but it's still quite the step, considering that a fusion between the more compatible Shinigami and Hollows is still essentially unheard of." Urahara shakes his head, perhaps realizing that he's praising the man.

"Well, it's more likely to be a fluke and nothing more." He adds. "Their inherent incompatibility makes it not only inhumane to attempt such things, but also requires a disproportional amount of effort in order to achieve any results at all. Simply put, it just isn't a field worth pursuing... especially since the Quincy are now extinct. His actions were led by nothing but cruelty, as always."

>>45817111
You're not sure what to say to that. Perhaps the Captain is simply frustrated that Kurotsuchi's methods did bring results bordering on the impressive, even if in such an unnecessary field. Urahara pauses as he closes a folder, moving on to the next one.

"As for the other body... I'm not sure why you brought it in, Ryouta-kun. Aside from being a victim of Shingen, there's nothing special about it." Urahara says.

"It's identical to me." You point out, though it's hard to believe that he hasn't realized it.

"Perhaps you've had a twin when you were alive?" The Captain suggests a highly unlikely but plausible explanation.

"Twins have different fingerprints."

Urahara smiles with something resembling pride. "So you've noticed it. As expected of my invaluable Ryouta-kun. Even though you weren't part of the autopsy team, you'd still seen that much."

The room grows silent. The Captain quietly examines Arata's file, staring at his photo, as if trying to find some kind of discrepancy. He eventually sighs in defeat. "Well, I'm clueless!" Urahara exclaims with a small smile. "I'll look into it some more, but please keep your expectations low. Well, there's probably nothing for you to worry about anyway, Ryouta-kun."

You shake your head. "I think it is important, Captain."

His smile fades. "Are you worried that there are other clones of you walking around?"

"There aren't any."

"Is that so?" He closes the folder and sets it aside. "I find your certainty in this to be much more peculiar. Is this like when you felt something strange during your first mission? Knowing something you shouldn't know?"

(2/3)
>>
>>45817165
Perhaps that is the case. You aren't sure. Urahara stands up and steps closer.

"Don't sweat it. We'll get to the bottom of it eventually." He sets a hand on your shoulder. "It's one of two things you seem to feel strongly about, so I'll be doing all I can to help you out. I just need some time."

He invites you to stand as well, the mission debriefing apparently over. As you walk out of the office, Urahara complains a little in a casual tone.

"It bothers me that you've had to deal with nothing but red herrings so far. I wish we had more concrete clues to work with, but that's practically impossible in the Hogyoku's case... Risking you on irrelevant missions is not something I wish to do, Ryouta-kun. I'll think twice from now on before sending you somewhere..."

...

The preparations for conflict have come along well, with Shen and Legion leading the bulk of your minions to the borderlands, raising small forts in anticipation of attack from the west. Marigold is nearly done raising fortifications on the iron mine, which has already begun supplying you with ample amounts of ore. You have all blacksmiths and armorers working from dawn till dusk on tools for your army. Every week wagons roll along the highways carrying loads of steel spears, arrows, helms, and breastplates. Although things seem to be going well for now, you are nervous.

You have entered the world stage, and soon you will be put to the grindstone. Vanessa is doing all she can to manage the logistical aspect of the operation, and Duncan gets less than four hours of sleep between constant information runs, but that will mean little and less once the banners are raised.

Today, as you look over some reports from the field, you get the news. A small force have ambushed one of your supply wagons along the road, raiding the contents and killing the driver. Duncan found clear signs of trained soldiers, as opposed to brigands. The enemy has made the first move, and now you must make yours.

>Be patient, and assign guards to all wagons from now on
>Order Shen and Legion to organize a counter-raid

Rather than act hastily, you give the order to have armed guards escort supply wagons from now on. Rushing into conflict can be dangerous, and so it should never be done without forethought.

The guards meet resistance on the first few runs, and you lose a few men, but after that the raids all but cease. The newest problem seems to be amassing forces along the border. The fort scouts see them daily, setting up small camps just outside of projectile range. Your men have become quite accurate with bows, but only a siege weapon could reach from the distance at which they sit.

A week after this news reaches you, duncan returns to the fortress with a missive, sealed in wax. You tear it open, and are slightly surprised to find it is from the Senate of the nation to the west. They request your presence for a peace council, ignoring the fact that they are the aggressors in this relationship so far.

Duncan advises against this meeting, as it reeks of a trap. But he who knows himself, and not his enemy, may suffer in battle.

On the field of battle of some Emperor forsaken Hive World beset by a Blood Crusade, Kharn the Betrayer, previously being a teamkilling faggot and hunting down the Khorne Champion of the Blood Crusade, runs into Mephiston leading a force of Blood Angels. Mephiston smashes Kharn into a Hab Block building and a glorious duel ensues. Who comes out on top?

Remember, Mephiston cannot use his pysker powers directly at Kharn because of the collar. He can augment his strength or chuck a boulder at Kharn, but can't just directly zap him or unmake him with psyker mojo.

Tell me something your character is bad at, /tg/.
What do they suck at? Why? How? What does it mean to them?
Bonus: Tell me two things, something mechanical and something fluff.

I'll go first.
Mechanically, mine has no ranks in the skill that opposes trip attempts. So, pretty much anyone who's remotely decent at it can trip her. Over. And over. And over again. She's still a blender in human form, took on a pirate ship single handed a few weeks ago, but she spent the first action of maybe 75% of the turns of that combat standing up. (And anther 5% I forgot to stand up and just did my attacks from the ground.)

Fluff-wise, she's a slow reader. I know, I know, that doesn't sound terrible. She can speak and read more languages than any party member. She just doesn't do it a lot, has to use her finger to follow the words and has really shitty penmanship. She's a barbarian, right? Who cares? Well the problem is she's inadvertently royalty in a civilized kingdom, and being perceived as a semi-illiterate foreign savage doesn't help when trying to get other people to take you seriously. Letting your enemies underestimate you is all well and good, but sometimes you really do want them actually have your measure.


How 'bout you, /teeg/?

>>
Mechanically: Lack of general skills in most practical dungeon delving shit outside of combat, detecting things, and a few niche abilities

Fluff: He has no idea when to shut the fuck up and will generally back someone up when their goal is improving themselves whether or not it's good or evil unless it falls on the particularly bad side of evil like human sacrifice or something
>>
Almost anything of note in the setting, because he's just a normal human. In terms of normal human capabilities he's now awful but the game itself is so far beyond "normal" that he's almost comically outclassed. He could reach the pinnacle of human potential, and he'd still be quite outclassed. What it means to him, is that he has to be really careful about any situation and usually runs away from anything, and personality-wise he is generally really reluctant to get involved with anything, particularly anything dangerous.

Mechanically, as said he's just awful in nearly everything. Running might be the only thing he's good at, and what keeps him alive and makes him sort of useful.

Fluff-wise, he can't admit that his chosen course in life is not something he actually wants to do or is happy with. By this point though it would be more painful to try to switch paths or start over, than it would to just continue being unhappy.

>>
>>45810301
Is there anything to suggest it's "doing good"?

Considering the success of the 9th Age, which is measurable if you look at online forums and within the community involvement; does AOS have anything like that?

There's player testing done by people who aren't the creators, other people post how they are dropping Warhammer or just playing 8th edition, and there are still WHFB threads instead of a switch over to AOS.

Librarium Online's WHFB forum section is dead, with a post asking that if KoW is now the main game everyone is migrating to then they'll create and/or rename the WHFB section to include it. Meanwhile their AOS presence is very minimal, this is a rather large Warhammer forum and it's similar elsewhere as well.

I think it's had the PD2 treatment; where all the old fans jumped ship to something else while a new audience plays v2.0.
