I want to run a Wizardry 1 style campaign. Entire campaign is West Marches style focused entirely on one single mega dungeon. People can come and go, and what they do inside the dungeon is persistent between groups, with the idea that most groups will be different upon entering, etc, etc. The design of the dungeon isn't the problem though, the problem is the system. D&D seems like the obvious choice, but:
>OSR
-Insanely lethal
-The main method of XP is gold, meaning that if a group clears out the first floor, lesser levels players later on might get screwed unless I restock the dungeon. If I restock the dungeon, that's fine, except it makes the design process much, MUCH more complicated on my end. Willing to do this, but want to leave the option to avoid open
>5e
-PCs are a little too unkillable
-Skill system is built in pretty hard to character design. I want all puzzles in the dungeon to be player skill, not left to rolls and DC checks
>4e
-Level disparity might be too high
-Battles would become a slog to work though
>Dark Horse Options
-Considering using Retro Phaze, but it's limited in theme specifically to Final Fantasy 1; would have to homebrew EVERYTHING from scratch.
-Considering using Final Fantasy RPG 4th Complete Edition, but again, little too FF focused.
-Japanese system like Ryuutama, but none that are translated well enough do high fantasy. Only the gimmicky settings have been brought over.
Anyone have ideas or have experience with this kind of thing?
Just use ODnD
Maybe try out TorchBearer?
Use like RQ or GURPS. They do dungeon crawly mid fantasy well
High elves empire on Atlantis like continent like in Warhammer or Tolkien.
High elves empire in another world connected with portals like in Witcher or Pathfinder.
No high elf empire at all.
Which one do you like the most /tg/?
No elves. Shit's boring.
>>54720371
I once had the high elf empire be a network of magitek cities floating high in the sky.
>>54720409
What would you do instead that's more interesting than including elves?
As in, please offer genuine ideas rather than snide remarks like "literally anything" or "something original."

I'm running an apocalypse world game in a few days and I might steal this idea for the setting. Psychic maelstrom in game is caused by a rift being slowly torn open by an elder God
maybe have the original thing that starts the apocalypse be humans attempting communication with other worlds and it goes very wrong or something
>The Earth is shedding its skin, with portions of the planet's crust falling away into space with no regard for the laws of physics. Hundreds of square miles of land flake off at a time, each shard only a few dozen feet thick.

D&D 4e's warlord was arguably among the top four most mechanically powerful classes in the entire game. (Well, Intelligence warlords were, at least.) Warlords were popular among 4e players, and their mechanical concepts were novel. They were everything a party support class should have been.
Pathfinder's more recent archetypes and combat feats, a few of 5e's archetypes, and now, Starfinder's envoy (the weakest class in Starfinder) have been stumbling over themselves trying to emulate the warlord's mechanics for proactive, offense-enabling party support. All of their attempts have been lackluster at best and useless at worst.
Why is it so hard for 5e's designers, Pathfinder's designers, and Starfinder's designers to emulate the 4e warlord's tightly-written success? Why do they bother?

>Why is it so hard for 5e's designers, Pathfinder's designers, and Starfinder's designers to emulate the 4e warlord's tightly-written success?
They are shit.
People like Mike Mearls or, worse yet, the kind of people who write Pathfinder, couldn't write anything good if their life depended on it.
>>54719547
Mearls won't do it, because he hates the very idea. He made Purple Dragon Knight as a mockery of warlord fans, and is on the record of saying he's "very satisfied" with it.
>>54719547
Warlord is a martial class.
Need I say more?

Looking for a hack and slash fantasy dungeon crawl, any recommendation? i don't mind rule medium games, a module or ready adventure would work too
>>54719229
Dungeonslayers.
>>54719353
What is that?
>>54719682
A hack and slash fantasy dungeon crawl system.
Give me the quick rundown.
Are they they traitors?
Are they secretly loyalists acting as double agents?
Are they both and one half became traitor and another became secret loyalists?
>>54716882
Yes and no to all questions.
>>54716882
>Are they they traitors?
They've produced Daemon Princes, so unarguably.
>Are they secretly loyalists acting as double agents?
No.
>Are they both and one half became traitor and another became secret loyalists?
Highly unlikely.
>>54716882
The correct answer is whatever you think isn't the answer.

Shivans and Vishnans roll into the 40k galaxy and have taken their own fucker with them. What happens as a result of this /tg/?
Bump.
>>54716843
>>54716363
>Vishnans
Well non-canon pseudophilosophical wank doesn't have much of an effect, so when the Shivans show up, they get thoroughly trounced by basically everybody, because the Freespace universe doesn't stand a chance against the 40k universe.
Why is the warhammer fanbase so autistic?
Sunk-cost fallacy.
Because it's a popular nerd thing.
Because you allow /tg/'s 40k fanbase to color your perception, I know I do.

No races already present in World of Darkness.
