Planning on starting a game for Toon soon, so, ya yuks got any advice for me?
silly voiced undead BBEG is a must
>>44614779
Brush up on your toon mannerisms.
Watch the classic technicolor cartoons, primarily Warner Brothers. This'll give you a better idea of the general logic and settings to expect.
The rest is pretty much up to what exactly you want to run.
>>44615287
Okay, so, I'm planning on it being episodic, you know, each session having little to do with each other, heck, I'm going to allow them to switch characters each session if they feel like it.
That said, I have in mind one session to be Wild West themed, and, if one of them asks if there's an Indian village, I'm going to give them an Indian village... as in, actual Hindu Indian. Sounds good for a gag?
Alright guys I have two or more wishes in ADAD, I want to wish for a Vorpral sword withought being screwed over. How can I do this?
>>44613826
Btw the wishes are coming from a luck blade, it works the same as the 9th lvl spell
Another shameless self bump
>>44613826
I wish that my current sword becomes a vorpal sword, while remaining uncursed, unchanged in appearance and wieldiness and remaining in my possession.
That's about it. It can still fuck you over but it's about as simple as you can get without dragons saying "That's my fucking sword!"
We know how is the realm of the chaos Gods in the warp.
>Khorne - Brass Citadel
>Slaanesha - Pink Palace
>Nurgle - rot Garden
>Tzeentch - Multidimesional Maze
But how is the realm of the God emperor inside the warp is just like this pic or is something else?
>>44613379
I like to think gold, cermite, aquilas and lightning motifs everywhere.
Below the golden throne, guardsmen and women feast and make merry; weapons close at hand until the final battle.
Sisters of battle and marines fly throughthe air having been transformed into actual angels.
While the inquisition looks down on the mortal realm from the side.
>>44613540
Any Idea for the dead Loyalist Primarchs in the realm of their father.
>>44613379
A sterile monochrome cubic landscape where change almost does not occur. So basically a realm of order and no fun allowed.
Why is horror so rare a genre in gaming?
>>44611537
Ever play Betrayal at the House on the Hill that has plenty of horror
Horror is hard to pull off because it requires a constant atmosphere. It's difficult to do when things like food/bathroom breaks exist.
Also it requires a sense of helplessness, something that needs some very real constraints on your character. This is accomplished in video games, but is often heavy handed. In table top games it requires a very specific sort of ruleset.
I find it is easiest when you have a player conspirator to help push your players in just the wrong direction. The horror of knowing a decision is final and that you made the wrong one is rather good. Also, body horror is something that can be easily done, but disliked by many groups.
People hate running away from danger. They want to dive headlong into danger and save the world, not skulk in libraries reading books that drive them slowly insane so the world can last a few more minutes before the inevitable onslaught of unknowable horrors from beyond perception.
Are there any ways in 3.5 to play as an an intelligent weapon that possesses a host?
>>44611533
I suppose. I don't have my DM manual with me, but IIRC the rules for creating intelligent objects allows for different power levels, that include starting PC level.
A cool DM will allow it, and an intelligent DM will find ways to make it balanced.
The biggest question IMO is : How do you justify the sword gaining levels ?
On a sidenote, there is a quest about an intelligent sword being run on /tg/ right now >>44610661
Why not just ask your GM and he'll handwave it?
>>44611928
I the sword just has whatever levels and classes the intelligence has. With a spell like ability to temporarily learn knowledge of the host, but no permanent knowledge of the host.
Malal, Zuvassin, Necoho, and Hashut!
I just wanna see marines of Necoho and Daemons of the Undoer.
I have some scattered ideas for them...like it's either an alternate universe where they ascended in place of the Big 4, or they overthrew them through a combination of their talents.
Zuvassin would be the anti-Tzeentch, his endless weaving plans revolving around giving everyone everywhere the shaft, otherwise really pretty similar. Like a post-Ironic lord of change. His Daemons might be called The Unraveled or something of the like.
Hashut would...

Pretty sure Zuvassin is the Laughing God wearing a Groucho Marx mask.

Clown or laughter themed daemons or marines
As anybody else noticed the similarities and symbology of the Chaos Star and the Wheel of Emotions.
I'm going to be running D&D 5E for some new players on Thursday and I was curious if you guys had any tips or advice when designing an adventure for new players.
>>44611031
What do you want to run?
Have your players expressed any desire to have a particular type of campaign?
Are you more into combat or roleplay (don't lie; everyone says roleplay initially but quite a large number like the combat sections more)?
What types of enemies are you having?
What classes do the players want to use?
How do you plan to have them meet up? Or is that already going to be established due to the above question?
These are the questions we need answered...

Introduce rules as they become relevant, not all at once. A huge rules dump takes time and confuses them, but you don't need that for and RPG.
First off, character creation and the massive amount of rules will scare people away. Ease 'em into it. Let them know that the book is big because it's filled with so many options; and they only need to pick and understand their own. Help them make and choose their characters by summarizing the different races and classes.
Start with a very generous plot hook, or as /tg/ would call it, railroading. They're new to this, they don't know what the hell to do with being dropped in a tavern in the middle of Faerun.
Have a learning curve. The first...

Is there a commissar?
The Commisar is listening very intently to your answer, trooper.

Hey there travelers. We have a barley harvest to bring in and we could use some help. Help us and will give you some pork stew, barley bread, beer and a couple pairs of socks.
>>44610085
You best start believing in highway robberies, you're in one.

Sure thing, sounds good. What's new in this neck of the woods?

Hey, these are my peasants who gather my barley and your a dishonorable bandit! Now I'm gonna cut your head off with my Katana! DAAAAGH!
Hey /tg/, I like to make CCGs as a hobby and I enjoy exploring different themes and mechanics.
However, when I want to prototype a game, I spend a lot of time mocking up frames in GIMP because I'm terrible at image manipulation. I wondered if some kind anon had a library of generic CCG card frames that I could use. I'm just looking for a grey or single colour bar at the top for a name, and a text box at the bottom with a typeline. Does any kind anon have something like that?
Pic related is what I've been using because it's all I'm capable of making....

Bump for interest

You want something that works in Magic Set Editor?
>>44612090
No, just something that looks decent with a transparency window that I can put art behind and that's not actually copyrighted material.
Anyone like playing sociopath characters?
Nah, I mostly play Lawful Good these days.

I'm not constrained by your feeble morality systems.

And I'm not constrained by your feeble emotional intelligence.

Would it really break the game if Wastes had its own land type?
Yes.
get your radical ideals out of here
>>44609500
In what way?
Explain further. /tg/ is for plebs after all.
Wasn't sure where to go for this, so Icame here. I need help, and I'm guessing there may be some experienced storytelers here. I'm soon GMing a game of Edge of The Empire, and I need to think of a way for an NPC who is an Emperor's Hand to abandon their prior obligation as a fanatical secret assassin, and join the PCs as an ally NPC.
Here's my current premise:
The Assassin is on a mission to kill an Imperial Captain who is thinking about defecting. She pays the Hutt the PCs are doing missions for to give her passage on a smuggling ship so that...

Ask the Star Wars General. They've got at least half a dozen NPC's built around that idea.
>>44609165
> choo choo here comes the space train
don't start the game out with this. Have the emperor's hand start out by chasing the PCs, you dummy.
