A lot of material necessary to make a proper app is still missing.
Most importantly description of the factions, their benefits, etc.
The apps that are already submitted there are mostly dumb weeb poster shit with serious ERP vibes, meaning they are only done because their authors didn't put much thought besides "This makes my peepee hard" into them.

One of the threads says everyone starts without any mechanical faction benefits and may only gain those after game start, so it's irrelevant for apping.

Thinking about it, this and Macross' reliance on fighter planes would really sell the science fiction setting.

Now we combine it with Talespin, the PCs are future couriers and have to deal with pirates and the Corp that wants payments on their ship.

>>54464530
Maybe you can clarify something for me.

In Halo 2 and 3, Earth is kibble and all the other colonies have been destroyed. How is it that Himanity turns that around and it looks like the Elites are the refugees in 5?

Campaign Title: Trouble on L.M.2. Station

Summary: PCs arrive on a nice sized space station, unaware that is being used as a testing lab by Rain Poncho, Inc. to make all sorts of beasts. Of course, they escape and the PCs are at the opposite end of the station from their ships.

Can they survive?

Special Treat: Gene mods are littered throughout the station. Effects are permanent, but useful against the monsters. Will they become monsters as they try to fight them off?

I'll go with this?

>>54464715
Wouldn't they be full of Separatists who would want freedom from the UNSC in exchange for help?
>>
>>54463774

The PCs get their start on Absalom station where they respond either as a friend of a friend or a close friend to a mistress to a brothel/bar. She's looking for "outsiders" to help uncover the death of one of her girls at the hands of weasel of a man who's the son of one of the wealthy crime families on Absalom but she also suspects he's planning something that can affect the whole of Absalom's underworld and the government itself.

As the PCs investigate they start uncovering numerous victims who have been scalped and their eyes taken....

>>54464978
It doesn't actually synergize in any particular way, but I think that the Umbral bloodline would be pretty cool as a Spellslinger, since you'd pretty much be a stealthy sniper that can even teleport around and switch places with allies once you get Shadow Veil. Just stay in shadows and let loose.

I'd honestly love this. I love focused scenarios and campaigns that go along a theme. With everyone being the same race/races, it's always interesting to see what people end up with.

My first idea is to make something Witch-y or Oracle-y, maybe even a Cleric, or refluff anything that can pass as priestly (I really wish there was something like a Bard for divine casters) and go on and on about the favour of the great dragons, claiming gospel.

Only if it's got more to it than just "all kobold campaign" AND if you post the article on kobolds from Inner Sea Races in the LFG.

Also ideally the PCs are pic related (taken from Inner Sea Races). It might require you to make a custom stat line for them as playable races, but that's okay- IMO any campaign that restricts players to one race needs to have that race come with variable ability score modifiers (a flexible bonus like humans or variant heritages like tieflings) and you could have different colored kobolds get different stat lines.

Why are you weirdos so obsessed with Kobolds.
>>
>>54466186
You voiced it better than my "Please no". I enjoy races that are usually considered jokes both in-character and out of character being taken seriously, and while there'd obviously be the obligatory bumbling and general kobold-ness that marks them as the endless fuckups they in fact are, slapstick and ridiculous objectives get old really fucking fast.

Playing it straight doesn't mean it can't be funny, but I'd much rather see the party try to form a kobold ladder to reach tall windows and loose their grips as they try to actually achieve something, rather than just because lol so funny and it's all for a cow lol it doesn't matter I guess maybe lol.

My first thought of concept was some form of dragon priest, and it would be a fuckup and it would interpret "the signs" arbitrarily and it'd probably be pretty dumb, but when push came to shove it'd actually take things seriously because it doesn't want to die and any potential hilarity would be reinforced by the party and their trials and travails. It would actually be cool if at the end of the day there'd be the trope scene of selfish people that have grown to appreciate eachother and their group. Except it's the entire party, happy to proverbially backstab eachother until shit gets real.

There's kobold only feats that pretty much makes you into a half-dragon already desu. Also, I believe that kobolds actually count as dragons already, although I may be mixing things up with 3.5 desu.

>>54466240
I could fish out my old kobold Oracle/Dragon Disciple build that I never got to play in a game! She advocates a philosophy of being like a dragon and forcing your will upon the world- a might makes right sort of stance, though with a few nuances. After all, if a kobold with a fucked up leg can kick ass and change the world, do you have any excuse not to be able to do the same? But no sane DM would allow the Improved Caster Level or Noxious Bite feats, and I'm pretty sure the build actually sucks.

Right now I'm thinking Kobold Bard (Dragon Herald) with VMC Sorcerer for the Dragon Bloodline, and every single feat I get going into Kobold feats, at least until I can get Dragon Paragon (if ever).

If everyone ends up playing sorcerers for some reason, the GM should probably just let everyone take the draconic bloodline for free. Could honestly be pretty neat, playing a cabal of diverse kobold sorcerers, twisted into different forms by their bloodlines.

Well duh, you wouldn't do that. You'd play an Aasimar born to kobolds, which is something explicitly called out. Just like how you can have nonhuman tieflings.
>>
>>54467282
I mean Kobold's can be Aasimar. There are even rules for being a small sized Assimar.

But what's wrong with just making an alternate stat block for kobolds to better facilitate variety? Just call them castes or something.
>>
>>54467313
Sorry, I zoned way the fuck out and was on autopilot, I think I filled in gaps with memories of the last time we had this retarded conversation and someone brought up goblins so I kept going from there.

Point still stands, they're both cancer and shouldn't even be player options the way they are now.
>>
>>54467313
>>why even have races can't we just pick whatever stats we want and call it whatever?
I mean let's be realistic.

Is there a reason why this shouldn't be done? It means people could play whatever race they WANT to play instead of building around stats like the current system encourages since now that race is primarily a function of just fluff.
>>
>>54467282
I would agree with you in a different context, but I'm looking at this from an angle of game design/balance and encouraging the game to be played the way you want. When you want players to do something, you should encourage them to do so, or at least not make doing so something that punishes them. Making everybody use the same set of racial mods encourages everybody to avoid classes that those mods are poor for. "Why is nobody playing a martial with this -4 STR, -2 CON race? I didn't want a party of just casters!" might be a bit of a hyperbole, but it's also what you should expect if you force everybody to run with those stats.

A Kobold Slayer could be really cool, grabbing Merciless Precision, Kobold Ambusher, Kobold Sniper, and Gang Up.

It's honestly a pretty horrifying idea, but it would require someone to actually tank and.. uh.. ideas for building a buff-ass kobold or two? Well, buff as far as kobolds go, anyway.
>>
>>54466686
Depends on the group and how you're playing. That sounds about right for a weekly group playing in-person or over voice with roll20. For a weekly text game, things would probably take about twice as long depending on how much the group dawdles or adds.
>>
>>54467405
>Making everybody use the same set of racial mods encourages everybody to avoid classes that those mods are poor for.
Yes. That is called "dealing with it". You're not being "punished". If you want to play completely free-form where races doesn't matter and everyone is essentially created equally, you should probably play something else.

You want to be a kobold fighter clad in heavy armor? Fine, but you're still a kobold, and there's a reason they are cowardly assholes and you never see them running around in full plate. It's cool if you do that, and you'll fill a niche that nobody else may be dealing with, but you'll have to play on your strengths and try to mitigate your weaknesses. It's part of what makes themed games like this awesome.

>Is there a reason why this shouldn't be done?
Is there a reason to have racial stats at all, at that point?

>current system encourages building around stats
>but race is primarily a function of just fluff
Nigger, you must be on fucking drugs, you can't have it both ways. The stats are fluff-based. Yes, it encourages building around your stats, because it makes sense for those races to actually build to archetype. Unless you're a massive optimization faggot, this is a non-issue, and makes perfect sense. Most kobolds with class levels aren't going to be fighters or berserkers, they're going to be rangers and rogues and shit like that. It's part of why kobolds are what they are. The same goes for tons of other races.
>>
>>54467661
>Nigger, you must be on fucking drugs, you can't have it both ways.
You're really illiterate for someone running around calling people nigger.
>>
>>54467578
If a GM wants to help a player deal with reality just to realize a concept, he can always hand out compensatory treats or bonuses, based on the logic that this particular kobold just happens to be an insanely adept fighter, or just happens to try to extra-extra hard. It's not something I'd advise, but it's a lot more reasonable than "lol races doesn't matter I guess lol? +4 str kobolds ftw".
>>
>>54467578
DESU if you're going to play this kind of "anyone can be any modifiers" there should be some kind of limiter like, for instance, size based limiters still being in place (+2 Dex and -2 Str), and perhaps maybe something like "you can play any +2 +2 -2 stat modifiers you want so long as one of the modifiers is the same as what the race normally has".

What do you guys think?

>You're illiterate

This seems fair.

Then you could just as well just keep racial bonuses and penalties and just allow anyone to take an arbitrary number of +/- points.

You honestly cannot read if you think that sentence isn't consistent.

>>
>>54467716
y tho?

just seems like a workaround to get an excuse to min/max instead of playing to one of the points of the game - everyone being the same race

anyone that sees an all-same-race game and that immediately thinks to themselves "I cannot possibly play this without playing the exact same thing as evryone else" should probably just not play in that game and leave it to people that actually like the concept and then that same person can kill itself

As I've said before, I've been working on Soulforger a lot which has left me with a lot less time to make setting stuff. Now that the playtest is out, that's changed, and I'm putting the material out there.

Factions so far have been kept to PMs, but I'm planning on putting them out there after I finish Elvargian's Letters. Either way, though faction rewards won't come into play until later and will likely be negotiable in nature to some extent.
>>
>>54467794
Look man I've played with a group of friends IRL for about a year and a half now and among the many games we've played in that time I can count the number of times we've played, let's say, an Elf with not even a full hand at least in part because of that Con penalty. We're not even THAT bad of minmaxers but none of us want to bite that bullet, and usually go for a Half-elf instead.
>>
>>54467478
>Gang Up
At first I was going to point out that that probably doesn't work the way you think it does, but I just realized that it should work perfectly with ranged attacks. If the kobold pumps Stealth (and he should) he should be able to take pot-shots with sneak attacks p. much all day.

If the game is using Feat Tax Rules, a 1-level dip into Shadowdancer might be worth it for HiPS, and would make a really cool black-scaled kobold. The fact that he wouldn't be one of the buff half-dragon dragon disciple kinda things, nor a preachy paragon, but just a "normal" kobold that still manages to be an exemplar of his type would actually be pretty cool. Obviously, he'd take the Sniper archetype (and possibly Executioner, if evil or if the DM allows). Only use acid arrows, to honour your black father.

It's actually been more like 2 years but yeah, suffice it to say we have a bad habit of getting through the first few sessions of a campaign before starting up another one. Right now I have a stack of characters that we could technically play with right now from... 4 different campaigns, 1 character from one of those campaigns that I let die instead of being resurrected, and up to 3 characters from campaigns that are finished and won't be brought back.

In addition there's two other campaigns in that group that I'm not a part of and another two potentially in the works, though the details for those haven't been finalized yet so I haven't built characters for them yet.

What would be a good class for a goblin, ronin-like character to actually deal decent damage with? 1pp only. It'd be super high in Dex and low in Str plus with lower base damage weapons (using the racial feat Roll With It so the separate monkey goblin race is out). Normally I'd turn to Unchained Rogue to deal damage with such a character, but I'd want him to be a noble, independent little guy and not someone who has to flank and surprise-backstab to win fights. ie can actually win duels or fight alone and outnumbered.

tldr: Dm asked for help against high AC high damage monk player.

My DM's a bit snowed under with moving house and work and what not and asked me for some help dealing with our min maxed monk. He's running a combination of monk and rogue with a dazzling display/ shattered defences build to get sneak attack off more often.

He's on equal terms with the barbarian when he full attacks as he's generally guaranteed sneak attack damage and his AC is around 32 which is around 10 higher than the rest of the party (My alchemist can match him for ac but he's built as the party tank).

The DM just wanted something to slow him down a bit but doesn't want to nerf him completely or bring the party into danger with something that can just challenge him.

The Barbarian's damage output is fine and much more reliable than the monk's.

I think his build involves full unchained monk with a 2 level dip in fighter and rogue variant multiclassing trading feats for sneak attack, I think he also go sneak attack from somewhere else as well. Amulet of might fists with the dex to attack enchant. I'll see if I can get a copy off the DM.

>>54468818
Yeah, immune / resistance to fear was on my list. He had a pretty bad time in a crypt last session.

>>54468838
Will do. My DM's great but he can get a bit out maneuvered tactically in combat.

>>54468840
Yep, his will and ref are pretty high so forts the goto there. CMD is a good option as I'd already listed mooks using pack tactics and aid another to bring him down.

He also got blinded last session with a word of power while going against a cleric which forced him to dimension door out of the fight.

Thanks for all the help so far guys.

Reminder that the only reason goblins act the way they do is because every once in a while it works out. If there isn't a goblin on the evil council of doom, it just doesn't have enough perspective to take over the world. You need someone who's climbed up from the shit end of the odds, who understands how big a pile of shit the world can be. Those arrogant dragons don't know any life except being the strongest.

Is that all? doesn't seem much to be honest, 5d6 is 17.5 on average. You can get more as a Str monk with Dragon Ferocity and other stuff. Monk also loses a turn to use dazzling display, and this assuming he succeedes, his Cha must be shit because he needs Dex, Con and Wis.

Also, 32 AC with below WPL seems something really hard to achieve specially as a Monk.

My honest opinion? the problem isn't the monk, is the other damage dealers.
>>
>>54469410
...wait wait wait, now that I thin of, where did he got the feats?
He lost all his monk feats, he lost 3 feats from his character progression. He has how many? 2 at 10th level? 3 if human?
Weapon focus, Dazzling display, Shatter defenses. Done, he has no more feats. And he needs to surpass the intimidate check by 5 (with awful Cha) so the shaken condition lasts more than a turn (to be able to hit with Sneak Attack hsi next turn)

A monk with Power Attack and Dragon Ferocity is going to deal more damage more realiabily

URogue for Dex to Damage is tasty, so is the Barbarian level, but I'm uncertain on Mutation Warrior.

Consider going Samurai and taking Order of the Flame or the Ronin order, especially since you have Roll With It making you relatively safe in melee - Ronin order makes you safer, Order of the Flame exposes your balls and can take advantage of pre-existing safety.

If you have those Rogue levels especially, Order of the Flame level 2 can probably shit on an encounter really fast - you win Initiative, you get to move up to the enemy for free, then you shred them with TWF Sneak Attacks because they're flat-footed before they act. With Dex so high you can take Improved Initiative and a trait and at some point you start winning Initiative on even trash rolls.

It was literally just the Mudball spell. Druids have a decent to-hit at level 17 and it was a touch attack, it was actually pretty easy. SR: No and touch attack goes a long way, particularly when it's a guaranteed status effect if you hit.

I've always been a bit puzzled by those kinds of games. It's a bit difficult to get mad when you lose considering that when you do your character engages in a sex scene, and when you win there's no sex scenes at all! Plus they're usually actually pretty hard to get through without taking any damage considering HP recovery is hard to find.

Finished another the Pathfinder - Forgotten Realms game today.

>Only one of the new players arrives
>He hasn't filled out a character sheet by hand in years, and wants to play a Halfling Rogue/Bard
>Hidden Blade/Wizard wants to become a Telepath/Illusionist until I tell him the Cerebremancer PrC isn't allowed with Gestalt
>He changes to Kensai Magus/Exploiter Wizard
>Character creation takes over an hour
>Ranger/Druid of Lurue stays the same

>PCs take job to hunt down deserters from not!Sparta in the rainy farmland to recover missing sheep
>New player is determined to hire the deserters as his underlings
>Kill some Dire Rats without becoming infected
>Bard Fascinates a group of three deserters, then casts Lullaby
>No one knows Sleep
>Fascination ended, roll initiative
>Archer scores a critical hit on the Halfling Bard, for 16 damage
>PCs win, skip diplomacy during the next encounter to finish killing the deserters, and find 1/2 of a sheep
>PCs hike back to the village center the next morning to report on the job
>A potential love interest for the Druid waves at him
>She doesn't notice the Ankheg stealing a sheep while her back is turned
>PCs fire magic and arrows in her general direction without warning her
>Druid kills the Ankheg to harvest its chitin for armor

If the players keep their current characters, it leaves them without a dedicated front line fighter and a good healer. I allowed PoW and Psionics. The Halfling Bard/Rogue spread out his skills. The Half-elf Ranger/Druid uses Goodberry to heal. The Elven Kensai/Wizard went for the Shocking Grasp build. The next game is in two weeks.

Oh, even if I become an unashamed pervert, that will never happen. I make it a strict policy to keep my sexual fetishes and my gaming life completely seperate. I mean, why would I make a game to fap to when porn already exists? It just seems silly and to me its like trying to force a square peg in a triangle hole. Sorry, but unlike you most perverts actually know how to stay at least somewhat professional when not in the midst of fap-time

>I want a campaign modeled after the Second Punic War and the fall of the late Roman Republic!
The...Second Punic War was one of the heights of the Roman Republic...
>>
>>54471626
What would the PCs even do in the second Punic War? That was almost 100% about Hannibal Barca and logistics.

You'd have to pry open the blood pact aspect. Maybe make him immortal with magic powers, and the PCs have to undo the magic giving him his powers, only to realize his army has been winning because of his directions, not his magic

But here's the important question, will it be gestalt so I can go Open Hand Monk/Self Pact Avowed and fight with my stilettos?

And I want to experience the fall from grace. The decent that crumbles the foundations of democracy.

>>54471709
Rome was never a true democracy, even the Republican period was more about big-ass senator houses.

>the fall from grace
You're literally 100+ years too early then, unless you're saying the PCs are Carthaginians and going to fuck Rome up or something.
>>
>>54471734
Here's the thing about fictional stories based on history: You don't have to follow it 100%. You could make this war and the fall a lot closer if you really wanted. Don't be so stuck in the order of things.

The potential love interest, an Earth Genasi Adept of Chauntea, now has an attitude of indifferent.

The Ranger/Druid was awarded land as part of his payment, so her attitude might improve.

Show me some math
>>
>>54471057
We had to deal with an extremely paranoid lord of a city that was attacking the city our party stayed in. He was terrible to his citizens, taxing them until the had almost nothing left. He hired mercenaries, which he unpaid and told to take the rest of their pay by bullying townsfolk. Any townsfolk that rebelled were eaten by hill giants he kept in town to patrol at night.

Cue my Magus, who cast Elemental Body to become an Earth Elemental, Invisiblity, and Arcane Sight. Turns out, it's hard to find and invisible earth elemental that glides through the floors and can see magic traps. I scoped out the entire castle, and found the lord's bed chambers. The next night, I teleported into his bedroom and CDG the lord.

His family concealed the man's death and kept running things as the status quo, so two days later I turned into an invisible earth elemental again and floated to the treasury, where I loaded all of the valuables into my portable hole and left. When the rulers realized they would not be able to pay their guards anymore, they fled. Our party claimed that the nobles had taken all the town's money with them, while having the gold melted down and reforged it as ingots to give the town as a "generous donation" to further ensure the city as a loyal ally to our party.

Felt awesome.

I think the extra damage 2H gets far outweighs other styles. Unless we're talking about high levels with tons of static mods it also comes only very early and stays strong basically forever.

Math question /pgg/les

What are the tip over conditions for when a +1 flaming weapon is better than a +2 weapon? I know intuitively that you'd take flaming if you're only hitting for 1 damage currently, or if you already hit 90% of your attacks, but if you're hitting for 70, you'd never take flaming.

Does anyone have this math on hand?

Unchained Rogue can outdamage both and maintain relevance outside of combat too. It doesn't steal the show because it's best with friend support, so it makes you a team player. Unchained Monk can also do high damage.

Mutation Warrior Fighter is competitive with those classes as well but covers largely the same ground, so if you're concerned with overlap it's an overlapper. Fighter is also the absolute worst class in the game at skills so fighting is all you do unless you want to drop an Advanced Weapon Training on a specific one. Look at this trash.

Two many resources and takes too long to pull ahead.

It's also what ends up getting shit banned at the table. No one is gonna let you be a Kasatha in most games and doing that as a Aegis takes like 10 levels.

Which one though? There are tons of HM games already, and picking one to base things off of would be hard.

Though, if I had to pick one, I'd probably go with Breadfruit if only for the nostalgia of it being my first Harvest Moon

Not exactly.

It's 1368 DR, and I'm going though the Roll of Years. They will encounter:

The Red Wizard mercantile expansion
The Twelfth Seros War
Velsharoon's apotheosis
The return of the Shadovar
The Dracorage

I'm skipping the Bhaalspawn crisis, since I've never played Baldur's Gate, and the Harper schism, since I don't like intrigue.

There's a chance for a Red Wizard, Sea Elf, Necromancer, Shade, half-dragon, or a local farmer waifu for the PCs.

pretty sure that's not it. Strong Jaw just ups the damage dice of a natural attac.

I was talking about it a few threads back, and was gonna post it recently if my phone didn't keep eating my messages. Basically, some weird, esoteric combination of the following properties and movies and games:

>Gumball Rally's plot and general premise of going West
>Bunraku's mishmash of different styles, East vs West vs North vs South
>The Dark Tower's cosmology with the serial numbers filed off
>Bloodborne's monsters and waifus

What would that look like? A cross-continental race across an unexplored continent, where you, small-time, like-minded mercenaries and drifters with strong convictions and particular skills (represented by various different subsystems being in play, Psionics, Path of War, Akashic, Vancian magic, etc.) volunteer to go out from behind the wall of your Zone, into the uncivilized, unknown Outer Territory. You're doing this because a mysterious man only known as Makarov has put out a ludicrously-high bounty on a man who slighted him.

You grouped up, now you have to make your way out of the Zone, beyond the Wall, and into the mysterious place where no one has ever dared to go- until now. With the bounty on this man (Name: Unknown, Title: Pierced Heart) so high, hundreds, if not thousands of mercenaries from all over the Safe Zone have made their way west, trying to get past the Wall and into the Wildlands. Wildlands filled with vicious, terrible monsters and strange, reality-defying phenomena.

The Pierced Heart traveled Westward, and you, the Men On Makarov's Dime, followed.

I was legitimately going crazy trying to look back and see where I found it last time, but it's in the second to last page of the Monster Classes book, it's called Mouth Manipulator. It's meant to be used for creating Sif builds for you Dark Souls boys out there, but the only requirement is that you have a bite attack which you can get as a trait even as a human.

You will either be taking 5 levels in Gunslinger or 3 levels in the Trench Fighter archetype if you want guns to be anything more than a shitty slingshot.
Generally casters don't enjoy multiclassing at all, let alone 3/5 levels.

Do you want to be good, or do you just want guns?
