By the way, I do play YGO duel links, and that's fun I'm good at it, but I miss holding real cards. I don't spend money on it though.

I'm also kind of waiting for L5R to be rebooted as a LCG

Just play Magic you faggot. EDH doesn't need to be expensive, if you have stuff from playing standard you can probably throw something together, might need to drop a few dollars on a commander to fit your colors. I just got back into standard, bought a precon and put like 10$ worth of cards into it, it's not getting me into top, but I'm not losing every game either.

If you REALLY don't want to do magic again, just go to your LGS and ask what their other popular game is, and play that.

I just don't think I can get into it and feel some fun from it, unless I start back at a higher level play. I know the game too well to have fun with it, and at best I'll have a week or two where I read up on the new cards (I already know all the played ones in current standard because I still watch some protours and read the set spoilers).

As far as local shops go, the only things they got going on is mtg. The closest one to me used to have a great community with older players, but it got overrun by kids. Either the kids play poorly with chump decks, or they have all the money rares because they don't have to pay bills etc and get nice allowances. Let alone I can't talk to them really.

So all the 17+ people stopped going to fnm for the most part, which made me stop playing as well. So if I'm going to be playing a tcg only with friends and not at local events, I might as well re pick up another game where I'm not as familiar with. At least I can enjoy figuring out the really tiny details of the game for a while. But I really don't know which one to choose...

>Which fantasy RPG has the best game mechanics?
The one which you enjoy the most. "Best" is subjective.

>>54318282

Not enough data for a meaningful answer.

Mechanics can't be assessed in a vacuum, it all depends on the context in which they're used, whether the mechanics properly support the themes and premise of the game and will contribute to the enjoyment of a group and GM.

Cowley Road, bit of a walk from the town center.www- Honestly amazed they're still in business: I was last there 30 years ago. If there are any actual gaming clubs in town--very likely--they'll have contact info.

This seems like a poor use of resources.

>>54317434
Depends on what you're looking for.

>>54317469
Bits for GW imperial armies, mostly Marines and Guard. More historical stuff can be fine too as long as it seems vaguely roman or turkic\ottoman.

>>54317434
I can't find a picture of the sprue, but the old chaos warriors sprue, from the early 2000's, was really cool.

their wishes were cursed and now they have to bear big downsides for keeping whatever they wished for.

make up a downside for each thing they wished for, it could be permanent (but smaller than the upside) or trigger only some times.

>>54317129

Plan your next game better, then wrap this one up.

>>54317129

Pathfinder is built to scale over vast tiers of play from 'peasant who just picked up his sword' to ' demigod'.

Therefore you just escalate. Whatever the players were dealing with before is trivial in comparison to whatever world ending threat (ancient dragon, aboleth, barbarian army, planar portal etc) exists now.

Revenge? To weaken Ulthuan, so it becomes easier to conquer?

>>54316983
Is he going to stabilize it or try to take advantage of that power?

>>54316983
If he can't rule Ulthuan then no one can.

just take your time and buy more metal ones on ebay or bartertown

the metal-models-turned-finecast were really as bad as people say

>>54316874
>were

Have they improved?

>>54316886
Nope, still bad

...is that fucking it? That's the entirety of your post?

You made a thread for THIS? Christ, maybe the whiners have a point about this board going to shit.

>>54316682
At least it's not a CYOA, WH40K post, or a "When did you realize DnD sucks" post.

FIGHTAN MAN as long as the system can actual do fighting in an interesting way.

For one, you could learn how to write like a functional human being.

>im finally getting into warhammer 40k,keep in mind that i barelly know anything about warhammer 40k,i can't paint for shit,how am i suppose to play a game of warhammer 40k without being called a "pleb lord",without my custom painted figures

I mean what the fuck is this? Did your teachers work for years to get you to SHIT this tripe into the internet?

>I'm finally getting into Warhammer 40k; now keep in mind that I barely know anything about Warhammer 40k, and I can't paint for shit.
>How am I supposed to play a game of WH40k without being called a pleb without custom painted figures?

Now is that so fucking hard to write you little shit?

And in any case, if people start calling a newbie to the hobby shit because of poorly painted miniatures find somewhere else to play.
You're not going to create masterpieces first time unless you're an experienced model painter or something along those lines. Just have fun painting models you like and putting them on the table.
If you're still worried about your paint quality ask for tips and lurk around the generals. Practice and git gud. But in the meantime just have fun.

And for fuck's sake capitalise your damned sentences.

Sorry, but you're going to have to define what a "large city" is first. If they have an unified government, at least one urban center is likely.

Anyway, I would think of them of many pastoral tribes, possibly semi-nomadic and an urban, sedentary core growing crops on areas benefitted by dams and qanats.

Tech level is hard to keep up if you don't settle down somewhere. You could have two sects (sun worshippers v moon worshippers?), one that stays where it is, and one that sorta wanders, but eventually people are gonna accrue wherever the best land is.

If they've got agriculture, stoneworking, and some metalworking, they've got SOME kind of bigger city where a guy's job can be "stoneworking" as opposed to "making enough food to survive".

Do you trust them to play it properly?

I usually let players work it out for themselves. Explicitly remind them that their goals and motivations have now changed. Offer suggestions on what they might do.

>>54316111
I trust some, but not others. I guess I'll target my better players first, and hope the others will learn by example.

>>54314972
firstly, try over in the gurpsgen thread, there's a pdf with a link to a big ole repository of all gurps shit.

second, technomancer, it's a 3E book and it's all about magic coming back and people combining it with tech

>>54314972
GURPS Fantasy Tech, GURPS Dungeon Fantasy 4, GURPS Tales of the Solar Patrol, or Pyramid issues with suitable names.

>Take 1920s gear

or
>Take modern gear
>Replicate it with 1920s magitech because lolmagic

Really, what's possible comes down to what sort of magitech the setting uses. A setting with magical crystal batteries that solve a lot of power issues but leaves everything else as-is is going to look a lot different than a setting that uses bound spirits as AI and magical floatstone as lift for airships and fliers.
