Anyone hosting any games via skype ? I'm dying to play and roll20 is a shit.

B-B-bump

Task for the group:

Post your favourite WFRP character that you've played and some of your favourite memories of playing them.

I've been summoning blood apes nonstop ever since the campaign started and now I've got like 50 of them.

Hey, /exg/, I'm new to Exalted and I'm making a Zenith with Supernal Presence. I've read through the rules and I think I understand how the rules work for the most part, but I'm not sure how to properly utilize my Presence charms.

Am I supposed to be instilling an intimacy of friendship every time I'm talking to someone and then use that intimacy for persuasion? The first intimacy is free, right? And where do I go from there, do I just keep instilling it as high as I can for as long as I can get away with it? I don't really understand.

Question I've been pondering about sorcerous workings:

There's currently a massive Shadowland around Thorns. Say your Solar kicks tMoW out, and wants to use a Solar working to purge that Shadowland. What happens if they drop the committed xp? The Shadowland wasn't there five years ago, so why would removing it require spending XP? Or is the implication that Shadowlands are always deliberate, and somewhere there's a necromancer who spent XP to create it (or something less stupid, because trying to simulate an RPG world by making all the NPCs use the PC rules is stupid). If it's that, would killing tMoW remove the Shadowland?

/tg/ is definitely an orphan. There are no poets, warriors, priests or philosophers here. Only neckbeards, Those Guys, faggots and weebs. The outcasts of society.

Fine. You were a street urchin. You've gained some stuff, most notably an officer, the Longshanks Gunner. Also, a new objective, to talk to a girl. Surely this will be a challenge for our neckbearded urchin zailor!

Fucking didn't remember the title edition because I'm a faggot sub edition.

It's up to you guys if I should delete it or not.

>>44535001
Well I can find it in the catalog anyways so I guess it's fine.

Rolled 2, 5, 2, 1, 4 = 14 (5d6)

>>44534606
Ow and to answer that question that you made long agow about since when did I decide to make this esdeath quest... Well since you decided to put "Girl" and magical ice powers in one thread. my good QM.

>>44534889
That wasn't me that said that but another anon. Oh and I'll be waiting until more rolls come in for the final decision to be made.

>Rules
Same system as Become The Dragon Quest. If you don't know what that is, it's best of three d20 rolls. I name a stat that sums up what you're trying to do, and if I don't name a relevant skill, you try to fill in the blank based on what you're trying to accomplish. “Break open the door” might be Strength based, but if you've been playing baseball after school and there's a lead pipe nearby, you could apply your Baseball skill to the roll. A 20 on the die is a crit threat, and if either of the other two rolls is 20 or higher after mods, it's a critical. A crit fail is when you have two or more 1s. So far this system has worked out well enough. We'll get into combat rules as needed, but in basic terms you have wounds, not HP, and the worse the wounds, the more penalties you accrue while doing other things.

Most Important Rule:
Have fun.

Yes. Shitty ones.

Slaanesh plz go

I'm sure this thread will be filled with mature, intelligent, and interesting discussion.

>>44530219

Indeed. A, OP such as this is often the start of a good and productive thread. There are certainly only good things ahead in this thread.

>>44530186
No, it's totally possible.

Just go do it in your weeaboo fap boards since that's what they're made for. Since we know you're not actually looking for discussion.

Completed Research:

>Capitol Ships: By extensively studying the Daggers Clanship and digging through the memories of sacrificed engineers and technicians, along with extensive testing and prototypes your Think Tanks can now create Capitol class ships.

>Javelin Launcher: One of the Stonestars living battleweapons this large gastropod hides under a dome shaped shell pock-marked with holes. By inflating several lung-like organs it can propel a volley of javelins made of a chitin-like material. These projectiles are not produced by the creature itself, but rather crafted by stonestars and surgically implanted through a hatch of thick scar-tissue surgically carved to allow reloading in the midst of combat.

>Diver Plant: Taken from the Sunscale Divers, the dried plant was studied while the seeds were germinated and grown using the lizards own instructions. The plant was a seagrass that grew in long clumps possessing narcotic and minor hallucinogenic properties. When air-dried naturally or dehydrated for quicker consumption, the plant is then ground up. The dried plant is typically incinerated with the smoke inhaled much like the human staple of tobacco. Divers held a religious reverence for the plant and it's properties, prayers associated with the plant speaking of it's power to hold back the influence of the Sadism the Divers were perpetually cursed with.

Unlocked Weapon:
>Javelin Thrower: A shoulder mounted launcher that fires a cluster of specialized javelins. These javelins can contain any grenade types. Long ranged these javelins can be fired in an arc to rain down from above or aimed at a medium distance for direct fire into enclosed spaces. In vacuum or zero-g the weapons can only be fired in a straight line. Cost: 5M

Unlocked:
>Narcotikelp: By mixing the Divers seagrass with your modified kelp you've created a moderately fast growing plant. When the dried plant is burned the smoke gives a euphoric and calming effect to most species with high doses causing minor hallucinations. The Necrotic corruption in the plant allows Jadyk to hold greater sway over the minds of those under its effects. Minorly addictive.
>Narcotikelp Vat: A vat of specially mixed water and necrotic fluid promoting the growth of a Narcotikelp crop. Plants grow slower than the normal kelp, reaching harvest size every three days. Cost: 8B 4M

What are some random whacky magical effects i can randomly assign to my players?

I plan on having them teleported into another plane for a little while because a large bookcase/whatever full of magical potions will come crashing down on them, but it would also be cool if they also received smaller effects aswell.

I'd love to roll for it on a table, so it's extra random or so they have a chance to not be affected

I plan introducing some new players who have never played an tabletop rpg before to this system. Any advice or tips?

>>44526066
In my experience, new players won't read the PHB if you ask them to. Probably best to print out the basic player rules, adding anything you deem missing, and then go over it first session.

>>44524813
I liked warframe more when we thought these robo bodies were just cyborg people

>>44525379
Nope, turns out we're dreamers who remote control bodies with the power of Void and minds.

I'm sure you'll figure something out.

How do you Jumpers get around? Footpower, cars, spaceships, wings?
