The Bogo-Indian is a good opening for club players, but it's not seen often at the IM/GM level because of its much greater simplicity compared with the Nimzo-Indian or the Queen's Indian Defense. The rapid disappearance of Black's dark squared bishop is a disadvantage for him.

Wasn't sure what thread to ask this in, but I've been wanting to ask. When you can't find a traditional gaming group anywhere IRL, where do you guys go for your roleplaying fix? I used to futz about with MMO RP, but I find myself hating most MMOs that I play lately.

I play a heavily modded skyrim. Sometimes it's more fun than any actual group I'm in.

MMOs never satisfy. They always lure you with sweet promises but after a couple hours it becomes painfully apparent how shallow the RP elements are. There's RP servers but...it's akin to playing pretend in a schoolyard where everyone has a different idea of what the rules are.

>>53815321
Actually, I've been rping on wow for a couple weeks now, and it's not bad. Of course, it's not as in depth or immersive as a single player modded rpg or a tabletop rpg, but from a character interaction standpoint it does the trick.

Threshold RPG was pretty aright, I prefer discord now - join a few channels related to the kinds of RPGs, play pickup games with vetted folks, if it don't turn out well then nothing really is lost.

What are some good reasons for an elven nation (non-Drow) to hobble along on the edge of failure?

Particularly looking for a banana republic or dictatorship flair.
And I want to exclude some obvious ones like wont breed enough, too druidic to farm (although a nice famine brings ambient scarcity) and just have been pummeled by enemies.

Declining birth rate and over indulgence in elder worship. You end up with very few kids who are subservient to dozens of generations of grand parents. Society is breaking down because all the older elves feel they are entitled to respect and an easy life, but they didnt have enough kids to keep such a system going.
>>
>>53809356
The elven kingdoms of Cerilia (Birthright, an oldschool setting) were driven to near extinction due to slow breeding, attempting a genocide on all humans at the height of humanity's invasion of the continent, and lack of priestly magic. They still hobble along in small isolated kingdoms, mostly because the might of the humans was itself broken by the arrival of a dark god (who then died, causing all kind of OTHER problems).

>>53809398

>"And I want to exclude some obvious ones like wont breed enough"

But old elves being a drain is a good thought. Most of the time they are portrayed as capable far into centuries old, but maybe they stop being useful for cultural reasons. A bloated caste where everybody wants to be quasi nobility.

Haven't done this in a while, but I've got a day off.

The setting in brief.
Technological advance inevitably leads to collapse. Humanity has reached great heights and conquered the stars, but has fall from these heights. This cycle of advancement and collapse has occurred an unknown number of times, and much of humanities past has been forgotten.
Now some reminants of humanity can travel the stars using the 'slipstream', but these link only small clusters of systems. Humanity is isolated inside these groups of stars. You are the humanity's scattered children. You are the Diaspora.


How do you start.
Pick a name and type 'dice 12d3' into the email thread.
This will generate out the fudge roll for your 3 system stats.
70 posts and 9 images submitted.
>>
Rolled 1, 3, 2, 1, 1, 3, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1 = 24 (12d3)

The three stats are Technology, Environment and Resources.

To give you an example
The Sol System (that's us)
Tech -1 The atomic age
Habitat +1 One garden world, and several hostile worlds.
Resources +1 Rich. Asteroid belts for mining, gas giants for gas farming. Main garden world has fossil and nuclear full.

Feel free to ask question btw.
>>
>>53809376
oh, how you read the stat roll.
in this case
1,3,2,1= -1,+,0,-= -1 Tech, Atomic age
1,3,3,3=+2 Habitat, one garden and several survivable
2,2,2,1=-1 Almost viable.
The world and civilization is surviving, but it's not really progressing, and without trade will slowly start to fall apart.
It can trade, but at a disadvantage.

Next Important setting bit: Slipstream

Slipstream is how FTL travel is possible in this setting. Each system has two 'slipknots' located above and below the sun (relative to the planetary disk) at ~5 AU (distance from Earth to Jupiter).

A ship with a slipdrive (a small but extremely complex device) can travel from one of these slipknots to any system directly connected by a slipstream (the lines seen in the cluster pic).

Is near instantaneous, but build up a great deal of heat and ships emerge at a random position and vector anywhere within 100,000 km of the target slipknot.

So if system that is defending has an extreme advantage in any sort of intersystem combat. Attacking a system with space capable weaponry (T1) is not practical until Tech 3+. Even against T0, piracy is is easier than invasion.

Tech and space travel are hard sci-fi. Ships are big, expensive, and dealing with waste heat is a serious issue.

So The setting making works best with between 5 and 8 systems, so I'm hoping for at least 3 players.

The base stats are just to get your brain turning. After that players generate out how their system works, focusing on it by itself, and make 2 aspects.

After we have systems we'll generate how they all link up.

That's actually a great start, postapocalyptic world recovering from that event, people hating and being afraid of mutates. Makes way more sense than Mutants in X-men.

I uh literally took both those powers from X-Men.
But mutants in X-Men aren't one tenth of the population, so each happened only once.

In the year 2067 A.D., 40 years into the future, the earth is completely flooded in oceans. Primeval creatures from the depths of the sea, once locked away in the hidden grottos of the abyss, have now broken free and prowl the seas. Humans are forced to live in Bojangles owned biospheres, known as BoSpheres. Bojangles owns all human life, and has transformed from a minor American fast food chain, to a spiraling empire own which all human life depends. All Bojangles owned machinery has a soul, and requires technopriests and engineseers to keep the machine-spirits optimal and running. Daemons from across the stars and from the bowels of the earth now seek to possess machinery and undersea fauna so that they may wreak havoc upon the human race. Forget reason, forget hope, for their is only darkness in the grim future of BoHammer 20K.

You don't need magic. Only the town guards, military, and noble officials should have access to spells and catalysts. This dangerous weapon can wreak untold harm in the hands of the irresponsible...just look at this convenient sequence of necromancer attacks for proof...and should be stamped out.
