You must've done something. Liches don't just get pissed off at you for no reason. What'd you do?

The short version is that I was so shiny that when I saved his son from being munched on by ghouls in a dungeon he decided to become a cleric. Both his parents pinged as evil, gave me the eye and proceeded to sic Golems on me later during the campaign. He then created a small undead haven with an undead warlord to get my attention, at which point we found out he went full on lich.

Now he's challenged me. :-:

Good, solid, reasonably simple system with a pulp focus.

I love Savage Worlds

Good balance between rules and sense, fun system and the sci fi companion is probably one of my favorite books I have bought.

Played a couple games with it and both were really well received by my group. One sci-fi horror one-shot and then a classic D&D style fantasy game for 8 or so sessions.

>>43454234
Love it, thinking about running a game in it when I get the group together.
Ran a agent of oblivion game in it once, had fun.

That seems like it would backfire spectacularly.

>>43454237
backfiring spectacularly is like, the primary job of gods.
Right after progressing the plot.

This makes no sense. If you're capable of producing a race of your own evil god power, why would you go through all these hoops of making them kind and good and then give boons to people that murder them so they become your evil servants?

Just... make an evil race. This way you don't owe any niggas boons at all.

I give this thread 5 posts before it turns into loli shit.

I play between Rated PG-13 and Rated R games.

That goes for both violence and sexual themes.

Kill a guy? Sure. Seduce a barmaid? Fade to black.

Rape a woman and cut off her head while you're fucking her into order to induce death spasms to make you cum?

Nah.

Reposting from the last thread to the guy who wanted to play a Little Sister, just play a Big Sister and you can do the same thing but also do actual character stuff as well.

You seem triggered, OP.

Field whatever your opponent will agree to play against.

Yeah you need round bases now.

Enjoy your shit.

>>43453621
You don't need round bases. In fact, the bases don't even matter at all as it's model to model contact, so you're encouraged to make your own if you want.

Yes you can field whatever, be weary of the "Sudden Death" rule however, as it will punish you for bringing unreasonable numbers.

>>43453621
>So how does this work?
Get some minis, get a total bro to play with, and have fun.
I can just field whatever?
Yes.
Do I need round bases now?
No.

I need opinions on some species:

Daomu Zhe (Chinese for Ghoul/Harmful Spirit) are the most common of the human offshoots. From birth they begin developing scar tissue on the top of their skin, which builds up over time. The top of which calcifies into numerous hard plates covering the body. They can't sit still for too long because the plates will begin to grow together, this will happen if a Daomu is bed ridden. They also shed hair, teeth, and nails constantly, and are normally nearly bald except for hair coming out of their oversized ears (one of the few things that don't scar as badly). They have roughly the same physique as humans but are often perceived as shorter due to having a hunched look because of their plating giving them a bulbous back.

Xingxing (Chinese for Ape) are the last one. Take a human, make it stout and pot bellied (essentially giving a human the shape of an orangutan). Give a set of long muscular arms, each with a second set of elbows allowing for better movement (these joints are all double jointed with free movement). Their faces are much more ape like than normal humans, with large lips and flattened nose. Xingxing are often employed as engineers due to the fact their arms can easily reach into holes normal humans could not reach at all.

>>43453711
Mifeng (Chinese for Honey Bee), which are what would occur if you made humans aquatic. large and blubbery like a manatee, grey skinned with many folds. Nearly no nose, and instead prehensile nostrils they can open and close. Large eyes with black irises, making them sun sensitive, and a second set of eyelids to close over them when underwater. No ears, just holes in the side of their head which are also closeable. On their arms are large fleshy flaps that are fairly rigid and used for movement in the water, and their feet are longer and flattened.

Shetou (Chinese for Tongue) are taller and more lithe than humans, base humans describing them as "skeletal". Their originally developed and lived in caves. Their eyes are beady and also light sensitive. They have no lower jaw, instead a single massive tongue that hangs heavily downwards (making them prone to dehydration in hot climates). Their speaking patterns are warped due to an inability to use a lower jaw.

>>43453722
Seem kind of weird, but there's decent variety there. Are those for some sort of sci-fi game?

>>43453500
Because it makes for a better story?

>>43453500
Because robots are gay.

because as human being is better at creative problem solving and creative thinking than any machine? Also because frankly thats no fucking fun.

>>43453403
first for FUCK YOU

>>43453403
No.
We don't like traps.
Go look at the creation costs and time.
Go look at how useless they can be
Go look at the fucking reflex saves everyone and his paralyzed mother can fucking make.

Traps fucking suck.

Nth for "how do I snek in Pathfinder?"

I must be the happiest of sneks. The smuggest, too, if that's possible.

>>43453250

There's nothing that wouldn't work as a setting.

Now that we've got your flimsy, transparent excuse for starting the thread out of the way, what was it about Zardoz you wanted to talk about?

>>43453250
It didn't even work as a movie.

>>43453302
Just generally how fucking weird the whole movie is

That's actually a rule: "There are no girls on the internet." How new are you?

>>43453138
Either you're not telling us something important or your GM and gaming group need to be replaced. One fucking incident that isn't so bad that you should be getting cries of "RULES LAWYER REEEEE", and your incident is a common mistake that any experienced DM should be at least somewhat familiar with.

Oh, this certainly is not the first incident. The GM has many a completely baffling rules call (e.g. completely misusing skills to the point where many of our skills literally meant nothing and did nothing during an hour-long [in real time] scene), but I have been saving my complaints for after each session.

This particular case seems to be the one that has not only miffed the GM, but the rest of the group as well, for reasons I cannot quite determine.
