A long running campaign of mine had a sudden catastrophic end just an hour ago.
Story time thread.

>Homebrew DnD to work with a TES setting
>PCs (Khajiit Monk and Argonian Necromancer) quickly become friends
>They have some adventures together
>They find out that the Argonian was created by an old necromancer who cloned himself
>The old Necromancer wanted a younger host for his soul, created a number of clones
>Eventually two other players join the adventure (Alter and Naga)
>Party is separated, The Argonian and the Naga players venture to Molag Bal's realm of rape
>Have an encounter where the players think the party was reunited, but it was one of the clones voiced by the Argonian's player
>They defeat the clone
>The Khajiit no longer trusts people who look like that Argonian
>Party is eventually actually reunited
>Altmer dies during the reunion encounter
>Khajiit player stealth murders the Argonian and Naga players
>Khajiit is then shot dead by wizard allies of the other players
>TPKO
>Couple of sessions away from the showdown with the BBEG
>I've been running the campaign for over a year

This happened 1 hour ago

I could have railroaded the session a bit to avoid this catastrophe, but now, knowing that shit can go south and just end like this makes tabletop RPGs exciting.

Has anyone had it worse, though?

H-h-hi guys.

So, umm, anyone else enjoying MYFAROG? I think vikings are pretty cool.

So err if you haven't heard of it, here's pictures of the book. I don't think there's a published PDF.

To start! Let's generate some stellar data, can I get 1d100, 2d10, and a name for our star.

If his card hadn't been spoiled already I would half expect Rick Astley to be the last thing to emerge from the gate to the afterlife.

I cooked these up to prepare for a game. See what /tg/ thinks.

Basically, you roll up the mechas as if they were human characters. (Other races are supported, but this post will use exclusively "human" lest things get too complicated.) Physical stats, maybe perception, but not mental stuff.
How's their equipment? Just take regular human gear and scale it up. A light laser rifle becomes a heavy mecha-buster, for instance. A longsword is a building-cutter. A plate mail turns to double-layer adamantine shell. And so forth. You can come up with better names than I just did.
Then put a fully statted human inside. Replace his physical stats and equipment with those of the mecha's. Make him fight another mecha with another human pilot in it.
You're basically done. Go nuts.

Human versus mecha?
Don't even bother making rolls: the mecha wins any physical contest, including combat, usually instantly. It might take a little longer if there's a whole lot of humans, but not by that much. Its pilot can then decide what to do with the loser or losers, and how the victory is concluded.
Most agility rolls, however, such as difficult terrain, will go to human. Again, no rolls needed.
Mental and social rolls are made as normal.
With above limitations in mind, the human can come up with some bullshit scheme to allow him to get up there and capture the mecha for himself. Up to GM what works and what won't: if he thinks it's too bullshit, don't complain. If it involves physical non-agility contests, it's probably going to fail. It'll probably involve some human-on-human fight at the end anyway.

Has there ever been a roleplaying game that did a leveling tree like Tabula Rasa did in 2007?

I suppose it'd be a little pointless in a high powerlevel setting, but for something like E6 or DH it'd likely make a lot of sense for you to just gain more special training as you level up.

And if there hasn't, how'd you suggest implementing it?

So whats /tg/ opinion on Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2 edition?
A buch of my friends were thinking of getting into roleplaying and I offered to GM them.
They are into Warhammer Lore and stuff (more into 40k but I must admit I'm not that much of an expert in 40k myself) so I thought WHFRPG could be fun, thoughts?
