How do I make an RPG?
Make a bunch of rules and put them in a PDF.
>>43854817
Read up on the subject. Study other RPGs. Play loads of different systems and pay attention to how they work.
>>43854817
There are plenty of good RPGs already. Just use one of those.
Age: 734
Location: Planet Afhan
Information: With other Saiyans and a small army of Zillians at his disposal, Daikon invaded a world called Afhan, which possessed some minor technological prowess and a few warriors of potential use. The planet fell quickly, but the Saiyan Pumbukin was killed in the process.
Welcome to Saiyan Quest. This takes place shortly after the war against the Tuffles, as the Saiyans look for more foes to battle in the absence of their old enemies.
Voting will operate on a first to five system, at least for the time being.
Dialogue is allowed to be added to votes, as are actions (though I'll ignore what I consider shitposting)
During battles, options will usually have a number assigned to them. After that vote has won, players will roll a d100, and have three chances to match or beat that number.
If a 100 is rolled, it is considered a crit success (unless 100 was the number you had to match).
If a 1 is rolled, it is a crit failure, regardless of whether or not the other two rolls are high enough to succeed.
If, during a battle, players want to attempt a writein action, that is allowed, but I am the one who will assign the number to it, so use caution
You're a young male Saiyan who fought in the war with the Tuffles. You are an average fighter for now, but have the potential of one of the greatest warrior races to roam the universe flowing through your veins. There is no limit to what you can accomplish through blood, sweat, and tears.

Power Levels (as of the start of this thread)

It's been two weeks since the planet surrendered itself to your control.
In that time, resistance movements quickly sprung up to oppose your new rule. Bardock and his crew insisted on being the ones to deal with them, and did so quite brutally. The death and destruction they caused has sent a clear message that any defiance is nothing more than a path to destruction.
Kamatsuna has provided you with a new scouter, and begun work on a second healing tank, which she is convinced will be of higher quality than the previous one. The planet has a good supply of fuel, which has been used to restock your ship for now. And, you've collected more than enough food and drink from the locals to keep everyone on your ship happy for a good while.
In the meantime, Rugula has taken to training those with Heran blood, just as you instructed. Many have died in the training, as Rugula's methods are decidedly intense, but those who have survived have already increased in power, with the strongest among them possessing a power level of nearly 700 now.
The issue of who to leave in charge when you depart has come up, with most of the Saiyans suggesting leaving a Heran in charge. However, the Heran students have made you aware of a resentment the common people have toward their kind, and suggest you leave a full-blooded Afhanian in charge.
"We'll have to decide sooner or later," Soko tells you. "What do you think?"
>A. A part-Heran
>B. A Full-Afhanian
>Daikon: 2900
Holy shit.

Previously, the young would be Ranger spent several years honing her skills in both combat and survival, eventually passing her trial to become a sparrow. However, because of an error in judgment, catastrophe struck her and her companions. Now the order of the Rangers are all but wiped out, the young witch Mona is unconscious after some powerful magical burst, and our protagonist finds herself protecting Mona from a pack of wolves and their strange leader.
You stand before a pair of sharp, bluegreen eyes, penetrating the dark of the forest. A cold, slightly damp hand rests on your neck, sending a shiver down your back. All around you are the shimmering yellow eyes of the wolves, silently watching you. Just behind you, resting on a bed of flowers in a heap is Mona, stable but unconscious.

How much of an impact on society would a dearth of families have?
That is, consider a setting where the vast majority of sapient creatures are born from the spirits of the dead, aspects of nature, ancient objects, magical energies, or what-have-you, much like the outsiders of Planescape. They can still reproduce the old-fashioned way, but only a small fraction of the population is born in such a manner.
How different would society and its values be due to this one factor alone?
>dad's aide of the family are essentially golem spirits of determination and integrity
>mom's side is just some batshit insane water nymphs
Eventually everyone would be so watered down it would be pointless, but pure lines would be incredibly powerful.
>>43853870
dynastism would probably never been a thing, so no kings, princes or emperors (by bloodline inheritance). it would be all democracys and military juntas

You are Tsukuda Ryouta, a Shinigami trainee.
You, along with about a hundred other trainees, have taken the 12th Division Captain's special test meant to measure your potential as a member of the scientific division. Just as Urahara Kisuke has promised, the test had practically no questions aimed at general erudition or one's education as a Shinigami. It was a simple written test with 30 question and 8 possible answers for each.
The strangest thing about the test is that none of the answers seemed valid at all. It's not that they were all blatantly wrong; it's that they seemed to be correct, all at the same time.
But perhaps you just couldn't figure them out. Indeed, it may be a little arrogant to assume that because you couldn't find the correct answer, they were all wrong.
Regardless, you answered the questions to the best of your ability. The results were to be mailed a week after the fact, but it actually took the captain three weeks to check the tests. Perhaps he's been busy with something.
You unwrap the envelope, but instead of your results and a recommendation, or perhaps the absence of the latter, as you've been expecting, the letter you have in your hands is an invitation for tea with Urahara Kisuke.
It's strange. It doesn't state the reason, so you're left to guess.
...
>Ask around, try to figure out if anyone else received an invitation.
>Be more subtle about it, ask your classmates about their results instead.
>Don't bug anyone, just head to the meeting when the time comes.
>Other. (Write-in).

I'd rather not fuck up this may be a test to see if we can keep our mouth shut about the discoveries in the squad or something. Better safe than sorry.
Hey guys, let me know when you are here.
I had an idea lastnight. Do you want some grandpa time, or should we do the dungeon?
I was thinking in following grandfather around for a day and show his regular day while Eldric & co go to the dungeon. Its not as if monsters from level 1 to 40 are going to give him any trouble, and I think I got some good ideas for granspa day.
>>43853805
I think we got a good idea of what grandpa is like, and the lack of participation and leadership he shows when it comes to running the city.
Maybe Alard's father instead? Responsibility for trying to keep the city running seems to have fallen to him, and he seems to be more responsible.
>>43853849
I dont have any funny scenes in mind for him. Following him around would be more like reading a kafkian novel, you know? the amount of work that guy does... actually, I think that would be somehow fun in its own right... alright that gave me some ideas on how to do it if you guys want to go with that, so:
>Watch grandpa wander around like a drunk leviathan, unknowingly throwing his weight around and helping everyone in the most hamfisted way possible.
>Watch uncle Wolfric as he goes through a regular work day.
>Lets go the dungeon
>Other
Also, i've been trying to re-write the magic system for the game, so I made this chart... jesus fuck this was so much easier to do just a year ago when my eyes were better. Seriously, this took me all day yesterday. Kind of pisses me off.
I was also reading on ancient chinese elements and their relationships, but whoever translated that did a piss-poor job of it. I mean, look at this, what the fuck does overacts mean? I asked the chemical engineer friend that inspired me to create this quest and he has no fucking clue either, even though he's a bigger nerd than I am and could go into rants in latin and talk about conceptual magic systems of the west.
And the elements "insult" the elements that are strong against them... wtf, really
http://www.elephantjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/chinese_medicine_five_elements.jpg
I really have no idea what overacts means
>>43853956
>Watch uncle Wolfric as he goes through a regular work day.
>Other
What was the name of the retired demi-god who became the family steward? What about him writing up a list of duties, responsibilities, and generally what Wolfric gets done and how much more work the steward still has to do, so that Eldric (who he doesn't want to see abandoning his responsibilities like Cedric) sees what he needs to be thinking about, and not just filling his manors with cute maids.
Stat me /tg/
Does anyone remember a time when "stat me" actually meant "let's figure out the stats for this character" instead of "I'm too lazy to think of anything interesting, and I'm too lazy to go over to /b/, but I still want to post random shit so I guess I'll just do it on /tg/."

Nope.
That's ALWAYS what it meant to me.

What should you pack if you're going on a vacation in Hell?
Also, which layer is nicest this time of year?
>>43853698
Well generally depending on how long the trip is, you're going to want to pack a few snacks until you actually reach Hell itself. Since you said vacation, I'd pack things like shorts and sun dresses, probably a hat and sunglasses as well
Earplugs.
>>43853698
>which layer is nicest this time of year?
Trick question, it's always the layer of virtuous pagans. The other layers are only fun if you have control over the fiends living there. If you do have that, don't even bother packing everything, you can take all the earthly pleasures being teased to the tormented souls.
Hey /tg/ how does one make an only war game not to "rail roadey" and by that I mean not just go here and shoot this and listen then to some dude talk about the emps. Any ideas?
>>43853458
Make things not go to plan, their transport gets fuckled on the way to the objective and so on. Let the PCs do their thing because obviously command is incompetent and you know better. Throw in some stuff that soldiers would do outside of "go place, shoot"´, shit like being pulled into a gambling ring and the commissar is sniffing it out. Hell even parade duty is hilarious.
If they ever gain a reputation for being the soldiest soldiers to ever soldier have some higher-ups pull them into some sort celebration of their heroism and shit. Soldiers trying to socialize with nobles is bound to cause shenanigans.
>>43853458
Put the players in charge. They are given the orders "Assault Key Targets and Secure Assets." Give them free reign to figure out what are the Key targets and the assets to secure are.
>>43853561
How could this ever go wrong...
Does your character ever wonder what it will be like when he or she gets old?
Most of my characters aren't forward thinking enough to consider that (hence why they're adventurers).
My Baklunish Rogue Akbar wants to become a wealthy lord in the Hold of the Sea Princes (Greyhawk).
Janus is a human fighter who figured he'd retire from the Guard Corps of his city, but now he's in charge of a rebellion so he fully expects to die fighting.
My human ranger has actually just had this conversation and joked about returning to carpentry, but he's aware that his job doesn't really allow for retirement.

Jesus christ Kes's actress is just terrifying.
Claudia Black and Amanda Tapping don't look too bad though.
>>43853332
It needs Carrie Fisher as well.
Is there something like a list of /tg/-approved board games? I'm looking for something children-friendly but not too simple, that's pretty much my only criteria.
How old are the children?
>>43852799
8 and 11.
Board games? What about card games?
I tend to find that card games usually end up being simpler and easier for children, like Sushi-go and Love Letter. They also tend to be a lot cheaper.
It seems than GW will finally gone space farring again, to celebrate this i decided to scratch a Spice Maurine battle barge for my Space Wolves, the Earth of Valdrmani.
Still a WIP but what is anon opinion on my project?
Also if you have battlefleet pics your welcome! Especially if they are your personal creation
>>43852638
Not enough yiff
It doesn't meet STC specifications.
Doesn't look like a space longboat. 1/10 (for having a sort of figurehead at least).

Everyone around the table is silent, thinking over what they have just heard and trying to put an appropriate response into words. Every member of your group, your little gang of oddballs and misfits, seems baffled, bemused.
Your name is Mia Vespucci, and you were the first to return, along with the typically quiet and thoughtful Joseph. Next came Cassandra and Leon, neither of them willing to even so much as look at one another – something bad happened with them, you can tell. Finally, and considerably later than everyone else, Petra and Elliot slunk furtively in. You thought about asking them why they were so late, but the sight of the gleaming weapon dangling from Petra's belt stalled any other questions you might have had. Had she, you wondered to yourself, walked through London with a SWORD in open view?
“I was careful,” had been her casual response, paired with an equally unimpressed shrug. With that, and not wanting any further delays, you had all sat down to exchange information. That was when Elliot had dropped his incredible suggestion.
“Please, for the benefit of the whole class,” Amelia says slowly, pinching the bridge of her nose, “Can you repeat that?”
“Well, I was walking here when I had the idea,” Elliot says, a trifle defensively, “Why not try negotiations? Talking things out like rational human beings, hmm?”
>>43852496
Just like the first time he suggested it, the table falls silent to consider his words. You're not sure who you expected to speak up first – Petra, maybe, with some blunt denial – but it takes you entirely by surprise when Joseph makes his voice heard.
“I feel I should remind you,” the introspective young man says slowly, “That we're not dealing with human beings, and I'm not convinced that they're rational either. Negotiations, in either case, would require us to have something that they want – which, as far as I know, we do not have.”
“Their lives,” Leon says in a bleak voice, speaking up for the first time, “They can do what we want, or they're fuckin' dead.”
“Well,” Joseph sounds a little uncertain, “I suppose that might-”
“And then we kill 'em regardless,” Leon bangs his fist down, grinning mirthlessly, “Send their boss a proper fuckin' message.”
“Now look here!” Elliot snaps – have you ever heard him snap before? - before the conversation can run away from him, “These slavers, they're the mercenary sort are they not? We just need this Lady, whoever she is, to call her storms off for one night – maybe even just a couple of hours! Just long enough to go in, do what we need to do and hop back to good old England, that's it.”
“Actually,” Cassandra says slowly, “I might be able to get us in. I've got a friend who's been offered a job. We could slip in, under the guise of slaves...”
The room falls silent once more as everyone considers the idea. You can't deny that it has a certain appeal, cutting past a lot of wasted time and getting straight to rescuing your father, but there are so many risks. All it would take is for one part of the plan to fail, one demon to go back on their end of the bargain...
“Mia,” Amelia says slowly, “It's your father we're after, what do you think?”
>I want to hear what everyone else thinks first
>No negotiations. We attack
>We'll try talking this time
>>43852503
>>I want to hear what everyone else thinks first
"Though if we do have to keep going into the Demon realm, even after my father's rescue, we will need to deal with this Lady and her storms eventually."
>>43852503
>>I want to hear what everyone else thinks first
If we go with the disguise option, we're going to need a few more former "freelancers". It's too suspicious if Ose managed to catch so many humans by himself.
Even then, we may want some people travelling through the tunnels anyway, for a two-tiered assault. On the other hand, DONT SPLIT THE PARTY
