I want to know if they've started encountering these Faceless, and Chryssalids. Also, pass along to them info about the cloning facility in Portugal; it's in their interests too that better Advent Captains don't come online.
In the north lies the land of Mountains, peaks adorned by white dresses which never melt, only grow thicker with every passing year. In these mountains live the orcs, green-skinned nomads who challenge these harsh lands to sharpen their wits and strengthen their body. Beneath the orcs, deep down in the cores of the Mountains dwell the stout folk, dwarves. Relentless digging is both their glory and curse, as they reach new lows with each day. In the land set below lie hilly plains, grasslands surrounded by tall forests. This land is inhabited by all, but ruled by the human race....

Seeing the world in slow motion has both good points and bad points. Logically, you know that you're falling as fast as you normally would be, caught in gravity's inescapable pull, but the magic bound within your red velvet ring makes it seem so much slower than that. You're not quite sure how that works, actually – although you're pretty sure that Scathach...

Swallowing down a rising tide of anger, you focus your thoughts on the most immediate issue – studying the area into which you have fallen. This isn't even close to the kind of tunnel network you were briefly plunged into before. It's more like a giant hollow, a vast cavern dug out from beneath the earth. You can even see buildings at the very bottom, crumpled and deformed by the force of hitting the ground. They must have fallen from above, whole chunks of the city pulled down with the collapsing...

Should I read RIFTS and convert the setting to an OSR ruleset, /tg/?
Hell, maybe I can play it as written. Anything with this much cool robot and power armor art couldn't be THAT bad right?
>>44834602
>Hell, maybe I can play it as written
Of course you can. You'll have to houserule things as you go along but any mature adult with half a brain could manage it. Do not believe the epic meems about Rifts (lowercase BTW) being some unplayable morass. Get stuck in, and change things to suit yourself when needed.
Rifts is proof that even the most godawful, hopelessly stupid, ruinously useless mechanics does not make a game inherentlyunfun.It makes every PF hater look like an idiot for complaining that the game is bad because Rifts is hilariously____fun___and people who think you can't have it in a bad system are morons.
I've been a rifts fan since it came out in 1991. The setting is a fun, everything but the kitchen sink post apocalyptic, mecha, magic mashup. The rules are little more than house rules 1st Ed AD&D with a percentage based skill system. Very simple actually. The problem is they are arranged in an unorganized manner. Then you pile on the mass of sourcebooks, world books, dimension books and it gets confusing and contradictory. Savage World Rifts may save the game. Also check out the TMNT and/or After the Bomb RPG which has a fun mutant animal creation system written by Erick Wujick.
Could /tg/ show me their favorite games?
My steam account is worth about 300$, but I completed every game, I'm bored.

Duelyst. It's a trading card game akin to magic or hearthstone but with a grid for units to move on. F2P but I wouldn't say P2W at all - no paid exclusive units (just planned aesthetics), legendaries take a quarter of the time to get than in HS, and every time a unit gets nerfed you can refund it for the full price. Is nice.
It's not perfect though, the current meta isn't that enjoyable and has irritating RNG creeping in, but it's still very fun.
Also is it's got about...

I seriously hope you guys don't do this unironically.
>>44834066
There are worse ways, especially with a newbie gm/players. Simple and decently effective, so long as you can segue into the plot quickly.
>>44834066
Is a bright corner okay?

That's fucking dumb, OP.
How could the whole party fit in the dark corner when my GMPC is already sitting there?

The native inhabitants have a greenish skin.
A thin atmosphere and proximity to the sun forces everyone to wear hats like this because it's too hot.
The planet is located perilously close to the Eye of Terror
How do you make players feel accomplished after saving the [kingdom/world/multiverse] in a fast and rewarding way?
My last session devoted a large period of time to thanking the PCs for saving the populations of four worlds. I was told that: (1) it dragged out, and (2) there was no emotional impact.
I had a great crowd gathered before party, composed of many inhabitants of the four worlds (thus, four groups). I had each group approach the party one by one, offer gifts to the party (including much food for feasting), discuss matters, give a few leads relevant to...

Depends on the players

>Is it more meaningful to be told by a friend, "Thanks a bunch. You are a great person, and I look up to you," or to be told the exact same thing by a stranger who has simply heard of you?
The former, what are you a mollusk? That's not even a question
>>44833118
The players and their complaints have been described above.
>>44833197
Someone who is a friend is already likely to have a good disposition towards you, and it is unsurprising for such a person to express appreciation towards you.
A complete stranger expressing praise and admiration towards you for your heroic deeds is a testament to the far-reaching impact of said deeds, as well as to how wide your reputation has spread, is it not?
What's your preferred resolution mechanic, /tg/?

Great! The return of gothic to Dungeons and Dragons! I will celebrate this by conducting an all-dwarf adventure scenario based on pic related.
Your name is Kline Bueller, and you are currently cleaning out the back room of the Drunken Sparrow. You wanted to make something of yourself in the big city and your goal was to get out of the shadow of your elder sister, Kaire, who was one of the S-ranked adventurers. It was surprising, considering you and your sister lived in a rustic, far-off village. But unfortunately, it wasn't easy to get to the top with your average skills. You still had a ways to go before you could consider yourself a proper adventurer.
"Old man, I'm finished," You call...

You walk out of the tavern and make your way through the streets of the town of Grandale, where the Five Blades guild were located at. The town itself was a nice place to live, full of good people, but the guild itself... was another story. It was composed of your usual rowdy troublemakers. The guildmaster, Lora, took great pleasure in humiliating you as you were given what were basically chores. It was hard to even get one of the good quests because your seinors quickly ripped them off the quest board before you...

Play it to the absurd. Make your character as distrustful, paranoid, and belligerent as possible to add some spice to your party's interactions. If your DM is worth his salt, he'll play off that for comic and maybe even dramatic effect.
Yep.
Didnt care.
I played a 7th level, 8 charisma Orc Barbarian named Krug, in the GM's political shenanigans and peacecraft campaign.
My Orc just kept insinuating everyone was weak and that peace was for losers who cant win; that our Country is losing the war because we're weak and pathetic, and letting the southern countries take our people, our farms, our money, our people. He just kept basically calling everyone shit eating, nancy losers, and accepting every duel coming his way, and challenging everyone to a duel; maxing intimidate, horrifically.
