What is Nechronica? It's a Japanese RPG where the players are undead little girls in a world that somehow went to hell. To help them survive, they have either guns, cybernetic enhancements, or horrendous mutations. They also have the emotion bonds with their sisters, the other player characters, which will be strained to the point where self-mutilation and other such things become common.

Instead of health points, characters get parts blown off their body in combat, gradually wearing them down till they're a leg, or a gun or just a mouth. Combined with a timing system that makes heavy use of counter play, it offers a unique combat system that would be hard to replicate in other settings.

Last Time, on Song of Swords:
Zell Girls
Jimmy Rome gets a taste of the black death
Geralt of Rivia vs a Mongoose with a switchblade riding a horse


Previous Thread: >>44439979

Song of Swords is a realistic fantasy tabletop RPG that draws inspiration from historical fechtbuchs, weapons and armor. Its combat system is fast and it can be used for both fantasy and historical/mundane settings.

Call of the Void is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.

Here's a .rar archive with the newest version of the rules as well as all related current working documents. At this time the latest version is v1.9.9:

Here's Ballad of the Laser Whales' latest version: https://www.mediafire.com/?rtbjk51jnm2wv8a

Here's a wiki detailing SoS's fantasy setting, getting filled up bit by bit as Jimmy reveals more details:

There's also a roll20 room where new players are encouraged to try the rules, test new rules, and find game breaking issues: https://app.roll20.net/join/346755/hRKd4w
The room might be empty, but the people who teach the game still browse the thread frequently. If you're looking to learn, post here in the thread. We also play Guy Windsor's card game Audatia in the room.

The Legend will never die.

I'm not really going to pretend that we're going to talk about it that much, though, given what we found out yesterday: The Gatewatch successfully destroys Kozilek and Ulamog. Your thoughts?

Post any art requests you have ITT. Keep in mind, the drawfriends are doing this for free, so do not be surprised or upset if they gloss over your post. Just be patient, and bump your request ONE time, every 24 hours after posting it. Don't be a jerk and immediately repost your request because you don't like the FREE art you received.

Additionally, please provide good, detailed references (pictures are better than vernal descriptions), so the artists know what you're looking for as best you can.

If you've recently had a request filled by a drawfriend, please be considerate of less fortunate anons and hold off on additional requests for a while.

Mind your manners, don't be rude to other people's requests, and remember to say thank you!

Feel free to drop your tumblrs/websites/commission/etc information drawfriends.

Try to keep discussion as civilized as possible, avoid non-constructive criticism, and try not to drop your entire PDF unless you're asking for specifics, it's near completion or you're asked to.

Humanity is gone. It's great city is empty. It's creations scrounge among the ruins for tattered memories, their own minds cold and without innovation. You are born into this word. A machine? A man in the body of a machine? All that you know is that you must survive, and cut to the heart of this dismal stagnation.

Lost Source is a Sci-Fi setting in the spiritual tradition of Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, and Bloodborne. Instead of Echoes or Souls we have Source, the currency is composed of leftover human ideas, thoughts, rare pepes even. Replacing Humanity and Insight is Psyche , lost and regressed human consciousness that you install to increase your processing power.

Mechanically, the game is themed around customization, with every aspect of your character being able to be modified. From their body, to their mind, to their weapons.

Last thread we began brainstorming about NPC, weapons and new locations. Monotreeme wrote a PDF with all the consensus about the setting and it's characteristics

There's a lot of room to create right now, so hop into the thread and see what you can add.

Has anyone done a system like the OG D&D's Weapon Choices, but with skills in a modern/gun-including game? One where like, a Handgun may have the stats:
> Damage: +4, Range; 10/20/30, Reload: 2
and then as you leveled up you get better at it so it becomes
Level 2:
> Damage: +4, Range; 10/20/40, Reload: 2
Level 3:
> Damage: +4, Range; 10/20/40, Reload: 1
Level 4:
> Damage: +5, Range; 10/20/40, Reload: 2
etc

CALLISTO AND EUROPA HAVE GONE DARK.

You are BLAKE HITCHES, Ceres base mission commander.

Your job was to head to Callisto's survey & mining station, rescue station crew and restore order to the base. Now, the base has been wrecked, with not only by the presence of a massive unknown object in the base, but the breakout of a crazed murder spree.

There has been only one survivor found so far: senior cosmonaut Mikhail Lebedev. Thanks to joint-nation astronaut training, he's had many other astronauts under his wing, one of them you, and it began at Moscow's Star City. Now, he's in the worst shape you've ever seen him ever since he was recently shipped to Callisto.

You know how the Supreme Court issued an opinion in that Citizen's United case? The one protesters were mad about because they stated that "corporations are people with protected speech"? Well the Supreme Court wasn't just blowing smoke. Corporations really are people. Some people have warped personalities. Some people with warped personalities are serial killers. There are a string of bodies buried throughout the tri-state area that would give homicide detectives one hell of a headache if they were ever found.
