D&D 5e stats, how 'bout instead of the usual 4d6 drop, you just roll 24d6 all at once, drop the lowest six, and arrange the remaining eighteen as desired?
I'd really love to understand the statistics of this, but it's just too goddamn complicated for me to do by myself. Nevermind the sheer number of possibilities, you have to account for all the possible choices of each possibility.
I've rolled a bunch of them and it kind of feels like a cross between 4d6 drop and point buy. You feel like you're in control, but you get the same basic...

Or you could save time and effort and use point buy.

I could also not play D&D, but that's not what this thread is here to discuss.

Seems like a lot of effort to be a slightly random point-buy system.

What is the most ridiculous, minmaxing, loophole abusing, game ruining, DM Table-Flipping, most overpowered character you've ever seen/made?
Necromancer
nearly perfect in all evasion skills
aswell as high ass attack
plus spells
constantly has 2 zombies in front of him
acting like a human wall
if any enemy dies
he brings them up
to add to his bullshit
can cast spells without risking getting hit and breaking the spell
cause of his zombie wall
btw his characters picture is a tall thin "mysterious" old man with a fedora and a suit
a true tiptiptip m'lady
i made a character with enough charisma to level mountains
not really minmaxing or op or loophole abusing
mostly just rediculous and sometimes game ruining depending on if he gets caught sleeping with random people

I hear you guys like OC. I'm almost finished with my system neutral sandbox hexcrawl and I was wondering if you grea/tg/uys could tell me if I should ship it, or kill myself.
This is the cover for the player's book. The Field Guide to Hot Springs Island is written "in character" for the world, and is an in game object. Players are encouraged to reference it at the table to help identify plants or monsters that are eating their companions.
Field Guide - Intro
Field Guide - A translator for elven and ancient runes is included. We're in the process of making these runes into a font so the GM can type up and print out any sort of messages they'd like to taunt their group with.
Any tips for a first time Magus?
>Shocking Grasp is probably your best direct damage spell to be using with spell-combat, as you get a +2 to hit anything in metal armor.
>>Empower spell and Maximize spell metamagic feats can get the damage of shocking grasp up to extreme numbers consistently

>Elemental spell can change shocking grasp's element if the GM starts throwing electric-resistant enemies at you.

There. You are now set to ignore the hundreds of great games that just so happen to feature cards as the most convenient way to package mechanics and reduce costs.
You colossal faggot.
I was wondering, does /tg/ have any species/races/characters who're primarily created by anon-board-members with no traceable "originator," making them pretty much public domain? I know about the Hirudo, Miga, Chorus, Crazy Hassan, and maybe Doobies, but I'm looking for more to put on a masterpost of good Open Source characters on Tumblr,

Didn't say you had to give your ideas, just askin for stuff originated from 4chan in the past, whether you know of it via screengrabs or archived-threads or those who've declared it CC-BY or PD
Though, personally as OP, I have a dickton of Open Source characters I've drawn and written up profiles for; requiring only creator-credit to use. I ain't going to link my masterpost here, because linking such things on 4chan is like throwing raw meat to jackals, but let it be said that I do put...

The year is 10180 AG. The Padishah Emperor Shaddam Corrino IV sits on the Lion Throne as ruler of the Known Universe. Arrakis, source of the Spice melange, is a siridar fief of House Harkonnen. For the ten thousand years since the close of the Butlerian Jihad, humanity’s great revolt against thinking machines, the Spacing Guild has held a monopoly over interstellar travel. In the absence of the computer technology needed to calculate trajectories through foldspace, faster than light travel is achieved through the aid of the Navigators: specialized beings who are able to, using the prescient abilities granted them by immersion in the awareness spectrum narcotic melange, ‘See’ a path to their destination.
Along with its monopoly on interstellar travel, the Guild is the only organization capable of exploring the unexplored reaches of space, pushing the boundaries of the Known Universe outward. Following the Jihad, with the science of interstellar travel lost until the formation of the Guild, large swathes of the universe, and the civilizations therein, were cut off from the rest of humanity. Even ten thousand years later, there are still countless worlds which have yet to be rediscovered, along with untouched habitable planets and other, stranger things. Explorers scour the stars for worlds such as these, the Guild either auctioning them through the CHOAM company or setting them aside for its own mysterious purposes. That’s you: the captain of a Guild heighliner on just such a mission.
But we’re getting ahead of ourselves…

Last time we had officially finished moving and took some old world corp installations. That was when things went wrong as we attempted to communicate with an old world AI only to draw the attention of an Old World Black AI. JAL appeared getting erased by said AI only to start a massive war.
We then found ourselves besieged once we shelled the bot armies bases. Our own tactics were used against us as in desperation we had our heroes do all they can and put out a massive bounty against the AI.
Now we struggle to survive even as the...

Greetings, elegen/tg/entlemen and ca/tg/girls. I have been a lurker on this site for a long time now, and I wish to ask for your help.
I'm a big fan of both prehistory and fantasy games, so I wanted to try and combine the two; essentially, prehistoric versions of classic monsters, both from mythology and classic tabletop games.
So far, I've got fire-breathing gorgonopsids for hell hounds, nocturnal fanged blood-drinking heterodontosaurs for chupacabras, and gigantic carnivorous oviraptorosaurs for owlbears, but I need more ideas.
What do you guys think? Any ideas?
>>47931657
There are some prehistoric fantasy games out there you could build them for. Wolfpacks and Winter Snow is an excellent one designed by a kind resident of the OSR general threads.

If I cast Maelstrom Wanderer and one of the cards I cascade is a board wipe does the Maelstrom Wanderer get effected by this?
>>47909701
It will not! Cascade fires off when you cast your Wanderer, so you'll have two Cascade triggers on the stack above Maelstrom Wanderer (the spell). One of those triggers resolves, you find a spell and cast it, that spell resolves. Then the next trigger resolves, find a spell and cast it, that spell resolves. THEN Wanderer resolves.
