/tg/ was only interested in it because it was an excuse to post fetish art. As soon as it came to making mechanics of the game, suddenly the whole thing died.
I wonder why.

>>52526530
chillax bruh.

>>52526530
creating a game around giants is completely within TG's borders.

>>52526435
well the rules can't be that hard. Its probably best to just grab a DM and a group of players and wing it and hash out the rules as you go/afterward.

>>52526542
>>52526596

You have a dice pool of d10s

Roll dice pool and look for matching sets of numbers.

Number of dice in set is tens digit, facing number is ones.

Example 2,2, 2 = 32.

Additional sets can be used for multitasking, storing for later, or additional effects in combat

>>52521901
Mikoyan draws cute. CUTE!

When he's not busy drawing monstrous futacocks and gore, that is. Like, holy, shit OP, do you even know where that one is from?

>>52526729
Looks like something from monster hunter

I mean, I have no idea how to go forward without having some plan.

My current thought is that it'd mostly be a Civilization style game, if on a smaller scale, with each player controlling a town and their respective giant.

I'd have two "PCs" per town; the Giant, for combat situations and maybe as a tool to accelerate building and public works projects, and a Mayor/Ambassador who flavorfully acts as the ruler of the town and person who goes to negotiate with other towns/players, because it feels weird for players to control a town without some sort of PC doing the in-game decision making.

I isolate the two because it allows for freedom in the Giant, letting her (because if you're playing this system it's so you can have a Giantess) serve entirely as a "combat person", and because sending what amounts to your entire town guard to negotiate over wheat taxes is hard.

I think we could just take some preexisting kingdombuilder ruleset and impose our GTS over it, with appropriate rules for feeding, arming, and housing our giant waifu. Maybe make the player decide between funneling resources towards their giant and funneling it towards the town?

Are you sure it's better for the player to control both the giant and the town?

It seems like there's potential for conflict and roleplaying if the player (as the giant) has to work around what the people of their town want. Instead of just being blind muscle they would have to earn the trust and favor of the town before they could start giving orders and exerting influence.

On the other hand if the condition town is a huge part of the player's advancement, then not giving them direct control could be frustrating.

Maybe instead of handing the player two PCs, make a mechanic for how the giant influences the town's decisions. Some giants directly rule their settlements, others heed the mayor or council, some are beloved by the people, others are untrusted outcasts who are only kept around by necessity.

So, since I just wandered into this thread, what exactly are the giants? Are they just giants that happen to become guardians to towns for a share of their resources, or do they have a cultural reason to align themselves with normal sized people? Are they avatars of local spirits that protect the area? How many players in a party can be giants, and if not everyone, then what do the other characters do to keep busy?

Seems like the needs of the town and needs of the giant (be it simply food, worship or sacrifices) is probably the core of the game. What happens do a giant whose town is destroyed? Do they die, find a new town, become a giant wraith or any number of odd things? Can a town get a new giant if the one they have dies, and how do they do that? What tools have humans created to combat or kill giants, and what can the town do to back up their giant?

>>52527030

Garnering favor, supplies and protection for the village makes it prosperous. The more successful the more prosper. Eventually they repay the giant.

Tldr do quests to level up town so they can level up the giant

>>52527122

Basically the giant is part guardian spirit part human born in town. All players are giants. Multiple giants from the same village are possible but rare. Usually towns make coalitions and thier giants work together

>>52527154
>>52527030
I mean, it's up to whoever's willing to throw together a system and DM it. I like the City Management idea, and I think it'd be a missed opportunity not to combine that and whatever combat system we're using for giants. Designing the culture and whatnot for your city and maybe having benefits/drawbacks from these traits for both the city in a political environment and your Giant.

>>52527122

Giants get their supernatural power from the community they support.

if the town is destroyed they slowly loose the power they gained, and eventually they can no longer fuel their physical impossibility. They must either find a new community to adopt them, or trade other giants for power to keep them going.

Its rather easy for a town of 100+ people to get a new giant. Just start a baby boom. one of them will eventually become giant.

It takes a lot for bog standard humans to kill a giant. expensive siege weapons, traps, warbeasts and other thing are a must. There is no way for a single human to take on a giant without that human being a living god or something.

Magic is out of the question as well. It can take decades to gather enough fetishes, bind enough spirits and other preparations to kill one giant.

So its common knowledge that the most feasible and reasonable way to take on a giant, is to send another giant.

The best a town back up their giant is to equip and train them well. and maybe alter the battlefield in their giant's favor. maybe adding a few traps here and there.

>>52527570
so adventuring giants is rare-ish since you need to protect your settlement. and a community only gets one. Bigger community, stronger giant?

And giants are essentially human gods, in the literal terms. Humans in area together pull their power and a giant is born. Without humans, he dies.

yay or nay?

>>52528300
The orignal idea, I think, was adventuring giants are from settlements that got wiped out somehow. (Or, this is one possible explanation.) In part because 'how did you lose your village' would be a good character/party building exercise.

Bigger community could be stronger/bigger giant or just more than one giant at a time. Depends on circumstances unknown.

>>52528300
Yay, though there should be some way for giants to survive without a community, at least for a time so they can attack other settlements

>>52530816
>>52528360

The supernatural power that Giants get from being part of a comunity can be traded. Kinda like Essence from Werewolf: the Forsaken.

You can bribe spirits to do you bidding with Mana. Giants are Half spirit. Wandering Giants can trade services for Mana, or possibly extort a community into giving them Mana.

>>52525755

really? Seems like an intersting challenge - basically you'd need to build the system around the size classes, "mob rules" for people sized NPCs and enemies, PC rules for giants, Boss or Elite rules for enemy giants and other monsters. Then slap something like Reign's company ruleset on top of the whole thing for kingdom/town management. Basically have a bunch of assets that consist of hyper-specialised mobs, fortifications and static seige weapons manned and loaded by mobs that do things giant's weaponry (which is an entire other thing that'd need fluffing) can't, like firing lots of arrows rapidly using those spindel mounted heavy crossbows the romans used and similar things both to handle attacking mobs but also to distract or agro enemy giants or other large creatures.

Look up frost giantess quest in the suptg archive i guess

>>52533413
I think 30 to 40 feet tall is what was suggested

I'd happily make a system for this if I had more time, but I already have 100+ pages of another system in the works & two projects like that at once is a bad idea. I could maybe do a one-page rulesheet.

Im suggesting 3 or so Attributes that determine a giants Dice pool.

Let's say
Body: physical abilities
Mind: mental abilities
Spirit: magical abilities.

With a split between combat and non combat skills that modify the results of a roll. (+ 5/10/15 to parry, diplomacy, melee strike, ranged strike, crafting, ect)

The only giant-related RPG I have is this.

>>52521901
Kind of Dragon Pass (so, Runequest) except every tribe gains a free giant.

>>52534489

Equipment/magical bonuses could be handled two ways. Either as a flat number bonus or n extra die bonus.

Flat number would obviously just be a +5or whatever.

Die bonus could either add a die to your die pool or add a specific number to a set automatically. ( this sword will add a free 7 to any sets of 7.)

>>52534468
Just make a GURPS or FATE adaptation.

>>52534761
Well, I don't know enough about Gurps and honestly I feel that FATE is light enough to be custom-tailored to the group.

>>52521901

The threads were just fapbait giant pictures, all discussion of mechanics was trite.

The idea of the game is neat but would require some more abstract thought, because just kaiju battles would get dull fast.

The towns should have stats, and those stats should be just as important as the giant's personal stats. As the Town Giant, the player would need to care for and defend his town, its trade, its food/supplies, and its people.

That adds a layer of social and political depth to the game and allows for more problems to threaten the player's interests than just "oh look, another gigantic monster."

I assume a group of players would be the giants of an allied group of towns, but not necessarily? War between towns would be pretty intense. What happens if a town's Giant does die? Do they get a new one? How do they get one in the first place...

As a setting it has merit. As an actual game where the players play the giants, it needs a lot of work.

>>52535195
Is there any rpg designed for a group where people play factions/villages instead of people?

>>52535260

I'm sure there must be, although I don't know any.

Apocalypse World has a lot of mechanics for owning/running a settlement, but ultimately you still have a character.

>>52535195
I feel like it'd make a better board game of some sort than an actual tabletop roleplaying game. It inherently asks that the players all care about their town and want to raise their village,s but then asks for them to group up and leave to adventure which just off the bat is already schizophrenic as an idea.

Doing it like some sort of set game or gamified tabletop would relax some of those tabletop problems.

>>52535408
true

>>52535408

I think you're right in that grouping up and leaving to adventure is directly contrary to the point of the setting.

If it was a TRPG, it would need to be about crisis management, settlement administration, and addressing common threats, rather than romping around exploring.

Have a definite win condition.

The Dragon comes. Prepare to kill it.

Exc

Have a hex grid. Add a terrain randomizor. Stake claims to land.

So, how do you balance giant and land upkeep?
It seems to me that a village without a protector would be completely fucked, while a landless giant can simply duel another one and keep the village. So it's not very interesting to invest your time in the village instead of self-improvement.
Sorry guys, I can't help you there, I'm shit at board games

>>52537142

Have phases. Settlement phase, Giant Phase or something like that

>>52533413
>This is objective fact and I'm willing to fight anyone who disagrees with me.
Tall enough for a normal person to sit comfortably in her palm or her mouth is the best size for a proper giantess. Mini-gts is nice for snu snu but it's not really the same.

>>52538310
Seasons would do the trick nicely. Your giant hibernates/ is drowsy most of the time, but when winter comes he can battle other giants, repels wolfs, bandits and monsters, go on treasure hunts and so on.
Rest of the time, you're worshipped and give advice while sitting on a giant throne when you're awake.

>>52537142
Make the village provide bonuses to the giant. They have the benefit of food, armor/waepon upkeep, a home, social life, and the martial aid of the townsfolk.

Also the general consensus is the giants get their huge-ness and power from the town itself, sort of divine protectors.

Finally, it would be in the interest of giants who do have their own town to help other giants protect theirs. A roaming warrior who claims towns is a threat to everyone.

With that in mind there's definitely an aspect of balance that would need to be, er, balanced. The decision to put food and resources towards your town or your giant needs to be a hard one in order for the game to be engaging.

>>52541698
Alternately, have the Roaming Giant be a mechanic, each game has one less town than giant, and it becomes a game of hot potato as the lone giant's power slowly dwindles.

I think there would need to be a mechanic that gives lone giants some kind of edge if this is the case, maybe the ability to fight a town's Giant (and thus take control if you win) or destroy the city itself (weakening its giant but also making it less valuable to claim)

>>52541781
>>52541698
So ultimately, here's my outline.

The ultimate goal is to build the best city. Maybe, like, make a divine throne or something, build the four ultimate types of buildings, etc.

Each town uses resources which can be used to either empower your giant or bring you closer to your goal. I'm thinking that you can build buildings that produce secondary resources, which in turn build other buildings or aid your giant. Maybe three tiers of resources? The split here is key.

I'm thinking three types resources (food, material, luxury) which each have an ultimate victory building (of which you need all to win), and each corresponding to a trait in your giant.

The giant can serve two roles; defending your town or attacking others'. Going after another player's town is risky, but if they're close to winning and your giant is valuable it can be worth it.

Keeping the action up and incentivising players to buff their giant is one player being stuck as the lone giant. The lone giant wants to claim others' settlements by destroying their buildongs and defeating the resident giant. This kicks out the loser and lets them take over.

What you have, hopefully, is a game where you have to balance defending your town and building it up, all with a cool champion mechanic.

Amusingly, a fan made blend of two games kinda suits the theme.

Agricola Robo. Because some mad bastards on the BGG forums decided that combining a pastoral economic game and a giant robot fighting game was the best idea, having you expend resources during the Agricola phase to build and equip your robot, followed by a giant robot battle at the end of the game to influence endgame scoring.

There should be multiple game "Modes"

The old Age of Empires. Build a Wonder first, would be one game mode.

Destroy the NPC faction together would be another. (Fight the dragon >>52536307)

World domination would be another.

Then i'd say Free Mode where, you basically just do an open ended game.

dragons are the big enemies of the game, so the game should end with a dragon boss fight.

>>52525858
I think part of the reason it fell apart was some disagreements on where the focus should be, how big of involvement humans should have, and generally how to do rules for cities and advancement.

/tg/ falls apart on rulesets a lot of the time when they get to complicated because differences in opinion crop up and can't really get resolved.

>>52548686
I think this is what inspired Viral and the person who made Dungeons the Dragoning. Just took the ball, went home and made a system, and asked /tg/ just for some help every once in a while.

>>52533413
I can agree with that.

>>52552552

I like the core mechanic, but the whole system is a mess.

>>52548686
>>52549282
Pretty much this, a project on /tg/ HAS to have an anon/a few anons who take charge

>>52552978

The system works amazingly well in practice... Once you get past the awful editing and figure out what a few of the more ambiguous rules were actually meant to do. So I can understand not wanting to use it as a basis wholesale.

I also think it's not directly appropriate for the premise. You'd need some tweaks to change the tone from high flying Wuxia to huge, heavy Giants.

>>52553328
flying wuxia giants would be so cool.

>>52553792
Yeah
>>52553328

Tone is easy

>>52555272

Eh, that's a matter of opinion/preference I guess. I prefer systems to be built from the bottom up to support their tone and premise and to adapt things in line with that.

The problem with making LotW work for a setting full of giants is that... Actions in LotW often feel light. It's a system about people who are able to dance on the wind and spring from treetop to treetop, and a lot of its implicit assumptions reflect that.

Changing those around, to a system where PCs are unstoppable forces, able to shatter the earth beneath their feet, to charge through obstacles and such... It might not take too much, but I'd want something that gives actions more weight.

Anon who did the organizing and stuff for the threads here. We never got to the mechanical design, but we talked about what we wanted and what we didn't want, which was the important first step.

Once things started talking about mechanics, interest dried up. I don't think it was entirely because of the fetishposters not having anything to contribute, but primarily because most of /tg/ is frankly really bad at actual game mechanics, let alone game mechanics that aren't just clones of another game they play, which is something myself and a few others wanted to avoid.

Elaborate.

>>52561340
>I didn't want to reinvent the wheel
As a game designer, I can appreciate not wanting to reinvent the wheel, but the concepts here made it hard to adapt to other campaigns without welding on a lot of new/homebrew mechanics anyway, which is why we originally decided to just make our own system from scratch.

>>52561371
"Picking somebody up like a medium-sized dog" is like 25~30 feet tall, which is much higher than the limit of reasonable interaction (about 10~15' tall depending on proportions). Besides, things can be attractive without you being able to stick your dick in them although it never hurts to be able to.

Have you guys thought to look at modifying Mutant: Year Zero for this? It's a pretty good mix of having individual PCs and having a community that they have to care for/upgrade.

I'd call the skinny ones fit, since it's very obvious that they work out. This chart has problems.

>it's a dead topic but nobody wants to admit it so they keep bumping the thread episode

I'm saying the exact opposite: men are expected to be muscular, women are expected to be not obese. Maybe my sarcasm involving "fit" threw you off. What I meant by that is that "fit" isn't fit at all, that'd be athletic. "fit" is simply not being fat.

There's definitely a double standard, but it is much easier for men to build muscle mass and even muscular women won't look super ripped because their minimum body-fat percentage needed to remain healthy is way higher.
