they require more food than humans so logistics would make large armies difficult.

DELET THIS

Why not? We know that the Romans did, The boards they carved into the steps of the Senate are still there.

Whats so unbelievable about it?.

>He doesn't believe that Yugi-oh is real

>>54302038
Not very.

Serious enough to stay in character and roleplay, but not too serious to start arguing over the rules and jerking off to stats.

>>54302038
Very seriously in character, but if they want to crack a meta joke or two around the table then it's all fine and dandy so long as it doesn't take us totally off track.

bump

>>54301824

I loved Kamigawa, but I'm a casual player. I thought it was great, but all the competitive players I knew hated it.

IIRC it was something to do with a lot of the blocks mechanics being very inward facing. All the real depth it had only really functioned in block constructed, and the standard with Kamigawa sets mixed with others just didn't synergise well at all.

It's a shame. I loved the setting and the theme and how characterful and flavourful so many of the cards were.

>>54301824
>Was it as bad as people say it was?
yes

cool setting, interesting mechanics introduced, but a fucking bad set

The sales of it were so poor wizards gave away a box to stores for every three they bought and they STILL didn't bite. After Mirrodin, the playerbase had some expectations for coolness and power level that kamigawa only meets in theme (with some obvious exceptions like sensei's divining top).
Working at a place that has sold magic for years, it seems to be a consistent problem with top-down designed sets. It brute-forces mechanics to fit a theme and they're usually underwhelming. Combine that with Masques-tier hard act to follow syndrome and you end up with a lovely-looking block that few really liked.

They print shit cards and don't want people using their site to make new players aware of what they're missing.

>>54301662
Maybe they got tired of the storm crow meme because they has fun?

Maybe they had a coding error that ignoring involved spending less money than allowing comments again.

I think they hate fun, whatever the actual reason.

>>54301662
Letting others know a card is bad is a bannable offense.

>>54300985
>Do you (or your DM) allow all UA, some UA, or no UA at all?

I take it on a case by case basis based on the campaign and the character concept a player presents to me, but I tell my players not to EXPECT that they'll be allowed and to have a plan for a PHB race/class/whatever if their UA idea doesn't fit with the game.

Mystic is always banned in all it's forms because fuck the psychic-pokemon "create an anime character" class.

>>54300985
>Do you (or your DM) allow all UA, some UA, or no UA at all?
I do not allow any UA. I prefer core only with some restrictions.

>Everyone Apparently Bans Dragonborn Edition
I don't see why. Dragonborn are cool dudes, and they're not even a particularly powerful race. Setting reasons I guess.

It's just so damn weird to see his with an actually good schedule. We'd be lucky to get 3 strips over the course of 2 months a few weeks back.

Ancient Indian Burial Ground
That's why so many people die there

>>54300492
Nothing.

The spooky ghosts, hauntings and magical phenomena were imported in after the city's founding. In truth the city isn't built on top of anything noteworthy at all.

>>54300492
The whole damn city is on top of an Indian burial ground, so it's all fucking haunted.

An anon posted in the last thread a different version of "Of damsels and Devastation" compared to the one I have.

Which one is the latest? In the one I have, for example, on page 2 Telia is described as being fond of orgies, while in that version there's a different preference

>>54300382
You have the original version. The author saw the light and decided to remove the christian propaganda.

>>54300382
That one's the older one. Too many people took offence to her fetish, and human sacrifice.

>I guess what I'm asking is, why do so many devs just not get it?

I get the feeling that it's you who doesn't get game design. You have to be very clear with your rules, and you have to cater to anyone and everyone who might play your game. Which is a major pain in the ass.

You hate things that are popular and allow that to alter your entire world view. You're basically just a contrarian cynic, which is why it's hard to take anything you say as anything except exaggerated hyperbole.

I hope that answers many of the questions you have. I just wish you'd ask those questions, instead of the loaded ones you choose.

It's easier to make quantity rather than quality.

Jesus fucking Christ OP, I know you're using the image to make a point but I was not prepared.

More than that, you're playing a fucking superhero RPG, where radioactive spiders let you shit webs. You left realism at the door a long time ago- just treat it as a laserbeam with an AOE that needs to be taken into consideration or something.

>>54299852
Nonlethal means "not going to immediately kill you" which is why too much of it can still kill you.
Look up radiation sickness, apply it quickly.
That said, the player chose a fucking AWFUL weapon that will have massively long term consequences. You may want to convince them to just go full Cyclops instead, anon, if this is a heroic setting.

>>54299852
What sort of radiation?

This is what happens when you import dice from Requiem.

The PolyHero dice are actually kinda cool, although the initial production run wasn't the best quality. I'm looking forward to receiving my Wizard set, which sounds like it'll be better quality overall.

Although they are more of a novelty than anything else. I don't really roll them that much, they just look pretty cool on a shelf.

I have the red warrior set, fiancee ordered the pink wizard set
>>54299623
Did you see the most recent update? October appears to be when you and my fiancee will get them.

By playing with a group that understands the lore? Also, you might to consider what Green Ronin did with their Conan D&D books and make it so everyone, even monsters, get 2 HP max per level so everything is super deadly and serious

>>54299101
Encourage your party doing cool stuff and let stupid things they do slide instead of needlessly focusing on them.
I'll give you an example of what not to do - once, my character decided to bury an ally of his instead of just leaving his corpse out in the open. In order to do that, he had to carry it with him through the whole city, and literally every NPC took notice and started buggering him about that, when it would be much more dramatic to just let him go unmolested and let him bury the fucking body.

>>54299101
Talk to your players about what sort of tone you want. Make sure you pick one everyone can enjoy.
