I haven't watched any of his tabletop shows, so I guess not that important. But he's a valuable insight into being a professional nerd. Learn from his mistakes and his successes. Eat his heart and one day gain his power.

Adversary is a new, custom format for Magic: The Gathering intended to be played over Cockatrice.
>How is it played?
In Adversary, players select an Adversary card from an existing archive, or create their own. These Adversaries enter play from turn one, and possess abilities that change the way the game is played. If you've ever tried out Vanguard, you'll feel right at home. Adversary uses 61-card decks (including the Adversary card).
The format is Modern Singleton, and the banlist can be found here: http://pastebin.com/4JUSJp01
>How are Adversaries balanced?
Each Adversary is assigned three values: a life total, a starting hand size, and a level. The life total and starting hand size are used to balance Adversaries based on the power of their abilities. In the event that they cannot be effectively balanced this way, Adversaries are also assigned a level, indicating that they are only suited for play against Adversaries of a similar level.
>How can I make my own Adversary?
Post your desired rules text, color identity, illustration and artist-to-credit in this thread and I might make it for you! Alternatively, make it yourself in Photoshop or an MTG card creation program. I will then add it to the .xml file and it will become available to everyone.

It's not like Adversary where you need to download a file and drop it in the folder manually.
1) Launch the Cock.
2) Click "Cockatrice" in the top left
3) Select "Check for Card Updates"
4) Update
It automatically downloads all 15000 MtG cards directly to your computer. I think it's around 50 megs.

I stumbled across John Wick games like "Blood&Honor" and "Houses of the Blooded." They sounds interesting from what I have read about them. I have been looking at running a samurai game and Blood&Honor is about Samurai Clans. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with his titles.

What would happen if you tried to recruit for a game online, but secretly accepted only the ones with anime avatars or character portraits?

You'd get virtually any number of people in no time.The game wouldn't last two sessions.

>but secretly accepted only the ones with anime avatars or character portraits?
You'd wind up with a moderately better group than one that didn't have anime avatars or character portraits.
A player that is incapable of even finding character art for their character is a player that can't be assed to do anything but show up, occasionally, to your table.

You missed the standard MGA because Elvish Mystic, Boon Satyr and this fucking glorious card rotated. Right now the tools aren't in standard for MG right now because Khans block is focused on multicolor and Origins/BFZ didn't add shit for anyone other than Gideon and Jace.

I think we should talk about how to run a Maid RPG game in Paranoia!
Yes, I realize what a trainwreck it'll be, but I think it'd be a lot of fun on a drunken RPG night.

So everyone thinks that they're playing Maid and then things get fucked and it turns out they have a few clones lying around? Or what?
Either way, it sounds like it could be a fun time.
>>
>>44397632
This works disturbingly well. Friend Computer takes the role of the Master and all the maids are a troubleshooting team. Wouldn't be the most seriously of games but you're running Maid what did you expect?

I was thinking more like a TS team was assigned to be the servants (maids) of a High Programmer, having to deal with the insanities of both systems, but either of those work too.

How do I confront my players with a hyperintelligent A.I.? Does anyone have any quotes or youtube videos with mechnical voice revealing ungodly truths?
Or should I just go full Golem XIV on their asses?
I wish for my players to feel genuinely overwhelmed by the experience. Any help appreciated.

Anders Sandberg is part of the same crowd as Bostrom and Yudkowsky; he RPs and has a lot of material for Eclipse Phase on his page.
>http://www.aleph.se/EclipsePhase/ThinkBeforeAsking.pdf
This is a recommendable example.
Alternately, I'd rip off one of Peter Watt's ideas - the hives are pretty good, vampires/zombies and scramblers all work well.
But if you've got Lem on tap, it might be all you need.
I'd start there, or perhaps rip off Peter Watt's different super-intelligent creatures.

So /tg/, how do you treat necromancy in your settings?
Do you make it inherently evil or just a tool that can be used by anyone?
Are good necromancers a thing?
What about good undead, such as zombies, spirits, or even liches?

Your carriage trundles into Melire in the darkness, illuminated only by street lanterns and the pale horizon light of the predawn sun. You are not hindered by the guards and indeed, there seem to be much less of them than usual. One of them warns you that while this part of the city looked nice enough, you best not head into the lower districts.
Melire had gone for years without their Duke but now having gone so long without his chosen steward, it was beginning to eat itself. Just how many people were jockeying for position now, each one looking to gain power? And you know for a fact that Hiss’ agents are already here and doing their best to incite the commonfolk and the nobility alike. Melire’s unrest will remain until someone finally claws themselves to power or until order is imposed from without, either by the hand of the High King or the Serpent Queen. And one of those is much closer than the other.
You yawn as you look out the window, having gone the entire night without sleep after the bandit incident. You don’t feel so good. Your companions on the other hand...Zigzag fell asleep a long time ago, still curled up on the floor. Aashenpreet is snoring on the seat opposite yours. She’s surprisingly loud.
The driver raps on the carriage, waking neither of them up.
“Oi mate, where do you want it? I’m not going into anyplace with the riots.”
>Ask him to just take you straight to your clients. You can handle them now.
>You’re tired and you don’t look so good. Ask him to take you to an inn. You don’t have any signets but you’ll work something out.

You slowly began to wake up as the sound of insects and forest critters echo throughout the forest you tribe is passing through. You quickly sit up and dress yourself then began to absorb the Essence of the world into body as you have done every morning for as long as you can remember. After an hour of absorbing the energy, you feel refreshed and invigorated so you exit your tent.
But Instead of going hunting after morning cultivation as you usually do you walk over to your Elder’s tent. And wait outside till you are called in.
A rough voice calls to you. “Come and sit with me, Samuel.
“Greetings Elder Bretio”
“How has your training progressed? ”
Good. I have finished my training with the
>1. short swords
> 2. bastard sword
and the
>3. shortbow
>4. longbow
“Good every member of our tribe must be able to protect themselves. As tradition I will you a one of the legacies of our tribe but for the rest you much take care of yourself. Our tribe can no longer help you on your journey in life. Now for your finally gift from me, Do wish to learn the art of Totem Tattoos or of the Life and Death domain?”
“Elder, I have not heard of either of these legacies. I wish to learn your Seven Devils legacy or grandfather’s 13 strikes legacy.”
“Tradition prevents you from learn legacies that another member of the tribe already possess. You must comprehend and mastery your legacy on your own. Do not worry both of these legacies are much more powerful than either mine or my brother’s legacy. Now which legacy do you wish to inherit?
> 5. Totem Tattoos
> 6. Life and death domain
> 7. Ask for more specific knowledge (what each can do) regarding the two or other specific knowledge(write in)
