I rolled a 3, and am going to purchase a house on the square I landed on.

Your move, /tg/.

>“Have you ever made little toys, or toy bows, or small tools, and placed them in the cellar or in the storeroom, so that goblins and demons can play with them there, and will then be favourable to you in other things?”

Yeah! Yeah, that's TOTALLY what my collection of plastic miniatures is for.

I'm not weird. I'm just entertaining the goblins and demons.

>They take a live fish and place it in their private parts until it is dead, then serve it boiled or roasted to their husbands.

How does something like this even propagate? Even the devil would have a hard time convincing people this was a good idea.

This is the generating function they use, but what do I do with this function? What is the x variable used for? Do I set this equation equal to x^k, do I set it equal to anything?

That's nice, thank you, but I want to be able to use the code and the functions in
my own program as well.

>#7 A player who says "can I" already knows the answer is no, don't try to surprise them.
>#8 A player who says "I can" is on the path to being the next DM, nourish this and take your rightful place as their nuisance player.
>#9 Rope and fire is a players WD40 and duct tape. Deny access to these at all costs.
>#10 Any problem that a player could solve by interacting with normally will be attacked. Even the rotting "rope and wooden plank" door will be attacked with fire. Laugh when the attack misses.
>#11 Your players don't hate you, but they hate everything you built. Don't take it personally when your players kill the entire town just because it had a light were-rat infestation.

>#12 a land base campaign will still manage to involve ships or sea-monsters. A sea-faring campaign will see your players plant their asses firmly in the desert. Circumvent this by placing them in a desert island. They will immediately find their way into the underdark.
>#12 a player that wishes to chronicle the campaign is not trying to help, he's trying to put words in your mouth, and catch your plotholes.
>#13 a player that wants to draw maps is looking to get dungeon pre-views.
>#14 a player that wants to take inventories is looking to add loot to their sheets
>#15 if a mechanic adds to your workload, ignore it. It's not worth giving the players one more thing for them to expect you to track. Encumberment is the worst of these.
>#16 hunting is only ever allowed to keep the players alive, never let them set up a business. Put poaching laws in place to prevent this.
>#17 a player who has tasted the blood of the hunt will inevitably move on from hunting beasts, to hunting townsfolk.
>#18 an evil campaign is harder to run than a good one. There will be more debates about what is amoral (and therefore allowed) than any time a paladin considering if slaughtering the hunter-turned-werewolf will make him fall.

>#19 Months and years is a good way to make your players aware of time. And increase your workload threefold when your players demand to know what happened in the three months of winter you just skipped.
>#20 Keep to standard names. The utter confusion as you try to pronounce "Garbolous" is not worth the immersion. The same goes for naming months, years, and places.
>#21 When a player make a character, they will do everything except give you plot-hooks and personality. Feel free to retroactively add these yourself.
>#22 A career in sales will train you to manipulate your players into actually play the game. It will not stop them from doing everything in their power to do everything else at the same time. For this reason, phones, tvs, computers, books and lint are all forbidden from the table.

There is almost an incredibly powerful NPC, ally or enemy somewhere in my games known as the Holy Diver.

I'm interested as well. Found pic in a card pack a little by ago and I'm concerned if it will hold value for any length of time.

So the reason why the expeditions are worth so much has little to do with their reprint chances.

It's because they're played in Eternal formats in tier 1 decks while being difficult to obtain. Polluted Delta was reprinted last year and it is one of the most expensive expeditions because it is heavily played.

>>44713015
They're fetchlands. They are fucking eternal. Get the cheapest ones you can get and a set of all of them and you never have to worry about one major factor of a lot of older formats.

Which mechanus adept had a malfunction when making this part of the ship

>>44712971
Couldn't you just make sure you are not in the warp and flip one to see which it is?

I suppose if I'm the cyborg mechanic person I'd just manually check behind the panel for where each of the wires are going in whatever fashion is ritually prescribed.

>>44712662
You sound perfect for the job.

> I just can't to seem to get the hang of it.

Do you prepare things ahead of time, or do you improvise as you go.

>>44712684
I try to improv a little but so far I've just run the books as told

Infinity has some pretty cool rules and advice on how to set terrain for tactical Combat. Though the setup is meant to be in 3D you can easily apply them to a 2D top down view.

If you want to stir up shit, make a better effort.

Probably about 0.1 if you include Risk.
