Starting with archers, taking requests

>>43549618
Just give it to them whenever. Do it soon so that you can get over it.

It's going to destroy your campaign no matter what you do, so it doesn't really matter when you give it to them.

This template is awful.

>>43549567
you're awful

Give it up OP, there's only like six people in these threads who actually post drawings, and I'm one of them.

do you listen to rule 0?

>>43549355

>Is it right to let players make a group and then find a GM for them and then tell the GM how to run their game?
Yes.
>Is the GM not the God of the table?
They can be.
>I ask you with a bit of concern since this seems to be a growing fad amongst the player base. It seems the whole tradition where the GM was in charge of the game has fallen apart.
It is. Every player and the GM are supposed to be in charge of the game. It's a collaborative effort now.

If the GM wants to run a game the same way as the players want, it's not a problem. Players are also a important part of the game.

Players should have the first say because they are the ones who know what kind of game they want to play, the GM is there to facilitate their needs.

Mediafire folders with older material not in the MEGA archive.

Anyone with plenty of time to spare could help out by transferring books which aren't in the MEGA archive yet over to it or by organising the '3rd Edition' folder of the archive (mostly the filenames just need making a bit more tidy and uniform).

If anyone has a copy of Dungeon Fantasy Denizens: Barbarians or Transhuman Space: Bio-Tech 2100, please share them in this thread.

>what are the best modern era long-arms for soldiers of fortune and what accessories would you consider worth adding?

GURPS firmly favours high rate-of-fire weapons; I'd generally go for something with a RoF of 13+.

In my experience, most characters will have (Pistol) or (Rifle) as their best Guns specialities; if it's the latter, then you should probably try and use a rifle, but if it's the former you could consider shotguns, SMGs and LMGs too.

Best rifle is probably one of the full-auto M16 variants. The M16A3 seems like the best off-the-shelf one.

Shotguns have the advantage of being able to generate a lot of hits (making them hard to dodge) and firing special ammunition. The USAS-12 is especially attractive for it's ability to fire 53 pellets a turn.

Best SMGs are probably the Suomi KP/31 and the FN P90. Both have large capacity magazines, a good RoF and decent Acc.

LMGs offer a wide variety of options, especially if you like German weaponry; the MG34, MG 42 and HK21 are all good, if a little heavy.

So I'm still reading GURPS Characters and I think this is definitely my favorite system I've ever read. I'm not ready to run it yet though. Probably after I finish reading Campaigns I'll try running a game. Reading the Characters book makes me want to run a sci-fi game though.

They are the servants

People like to talk and Skype is the most well known and plebian of programs to facilitate that.

Because we want to know that you're actually paying attention instead of just shitposting on 4chan in another tab and every now and then jumping back to see what everyone has said.

I'd like to thank everyone for the feedback you gave on the new stuff for the knight-chandler. After discussing it with the rest of the team, we've slightly reworded a couple things and added clarifications to others.

The healing was initially meant to be capped by the amount of damage you /actually/ do, but we decided in the end to cap it to the maximum hit points of your target, so you don't get gypped if you happen to need to finish an enemy off. There's been a slight rewording of the first ability (it can just go off on any attack, including attacks of opportunity, rather than needing to declare it beforehand. Initially there had been a 1/round limit to its use, but that went away and left weird wording behind).

For the inevitable questions about having a familiar or psicrystal in your space, we've decided to leave it as it is. The reasoning here is that if you've got a psicystal or familiar hanging out with you, and they're actually /threatened/, then that means the enemy could attack them and possibly kill them. Losing a psicrystal isn't so bad, but still requires some feat investment by someone, and losing a familiar is going to mean they're gone for a bit and you're out some gold. I wouldn't recommend the strategy, because it's a pretty good way to paint a target on your pet rock/bird.

Oh wow, I thought the author wasn't doing any more of these.

>>43547993
Holy shit. Thought he wasn't going to do any more because it made him nervous how popular it was?

>>43548162
do we have a date on when he said that?
I would like to mark down how long it took greed/ a good idea to beat out nervousness for future study.

Sure. I'd pass inthe post apoc aspect though. Part of the fun to me would be interacting with the mundane world.

>>43547868
>So what does /tg/ think about a game of playing some stray animals, be it cats, dogs, rabbits or whatever, fighting for day to day survival in the streets of some big city.
Sounds awesome. Lots of room for good ideas and interesting adventures.

>Bonuspoints for post-apocalypse.
You misspelled demerits.

That was a video game, wasn't it?

any help would be welcome

it recharges at dawn as well. Once per day

What's the idea of this item? Why centre fireball on oneself?

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.

Always good to make sure nothing of importance is being forgotten.

you try to conjure up memories of last night.
you seem to remember a drow holy day, a wagon of gnomish ale, and a surprise attack from a band of paladins.

you know that you're several hundred miles away from the area you would designate as "home", so whatever happened, you ended up legging it.

the actors seem to have finished rehearsel, and the moon has risen. everyone seems to be heading off for bed.

Late in the morning after the funeral you escorted Welles to, you and Leigh are hanging around you and Leigh's room at the inn. Calof's off talking to Eyven about being paid for services provided, Jolie tagged along, and Ansi is still off...

Scratch that, Ansi just came back! So much for spending time alone with Leigh.

"Where have you been?" Leigh asks him.

Ansi retorts, "why do you care?"

"Well... I don't, but-"

"Exactly."

>A. He has a point. What's his personal time matter?
>B. Insist on knowing. He's your comrade!
>C. Insist on knowing. It's suspicious!
>D. Be silent
>E. Write-in

>B. Insist on knowing. He's your comrade!
