Anyone care to share some good fantasy books? Outside of the Tokien stuff and certain anime Im a bit of a neophyte to the genre.
Im really just looking to get something to draw inspiration from because sooner rather than later Im gonna have a turn at coming up with a campaign.
>>44700157
The Gotrek and Felix series is pretty rad, imo. Might learn a thing or two from it as well.

Will check out.

I am somewhat of a crusty Anon, and others are free to call my taste stanky if they wish, but I'd suggest the following:
The Last Unicorn
Karl Edgar Wagner's Kane (specifically the short story compilation "Night Winds")
Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser
The Thieftaker chronicles
The Prydain books
A Wizard of Oz (fight me, anons)
Sweet Silver Blues
Joe Abercrombie's First Law
Quintessence, David Walton
The First and Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant

Correct this is wrong.

How else do you pronounce it?

See above. "Tie-fling"?

I mean, it's a very slight difference from the correct pronunciation.

You are Brianna la Croix, journeyman necromancer, and your lover's father - just rescued from prison - has chosen to spend his first day of freedom blaming himself for his daughter's problems.
Sad thing is, you know the feeling. Misery just loves company, doesn't it?

"Look," you tell Larry. "It doesn't matter. It's been three years now, and you can drive yourself to insanity and drink with 'what if' on your own time. Does Amy seem unhappy to you?"

Repeating my previous call for Audionon as well; the bossmen are still potentially interested in this quest and I'd like to be able to show them your work.
Due to budgeting reasons GW has decided to start cutting races from 40k with only 8 races remaining in the game. For whatever fucked up reason you are the one in charge of this decision.
Which 8 races do you pick to stay?
>>44695967
I wonder why I am french and ditch the eldar, both of them.
>>44695967
Probably the DE and the Tau, never liked the sadist fuckwits or the boring gunline army. Also out of all of the choices presented they probably have the 2nd and 3rd least impact on the fluff behind the Bolter Bitches if they were to be removed.
>>44696224
Sisters are pretty damn firmly established in the Imperial lore, though. It'd be like suddenly removing the Air Force from the US military - jokes aside, it'd be incredibly noticeable and cause all sorts of internal problems.

Question of the Thread:
How many nemarunai does it does take to fix the story team's bullshit?
>>44691371
Just one, to let you time travel and tell Naseru to shut the fuck up and sit his ass down on his throne.
>>44691403
Good point.

Is that a sword whose sheath is a tetsubo?
What are some unique magic items you've seen in your games?
>>44690250
>>44690250
My old DM was really fond of particularly dickish magic items he made up on the spot. I know using magic items without getting them identified is risky business, but it was even worse with his. By far the most offensive he ever made was an amulet which contained the soul of a recurring villain. If a character put it on, he would be immediately transformed into that villain and put under control of the GM. No warning. No save rolls. You put this thing on, your character was gone forever.
Fucking thing...

Kinda pic related. Had a magic item inbedded in the characters chest. Had to push on their chest to activate it. Have the character a breath attack. It was a cool idea, and actual came in handy in an interrogation session with the character.

incidentally, how are we paying the warlord mercs?if its in Aries production licenses I will laugh.
>>44687770
For nav relay and salvage!
>>44687871Yeah, once open hostilities in our relay have ceased, we really need to check our finances.
>>44687770
For House and Dominion early-in-the-day-edition-for-some!
>>44687871Well we will have a bunch salvage of lesser good ships we can give them. Old style Corvettes are still worth at lest like 2 millions or so. Maybe not as much damaged. And if it comes down to it then we got other salvage we can give them. Perhaps even some Assault Corvettes since we produce those.

oh boy here we go
Yesterday, a guy mentioned an idea on another thread the despite context is actually quite clever.
An inn ran by a family of werebears. While the inspiration is a little silly (the Goldilocks story), myth and symbolism do associate bears with protection, hospitality and nurturing. "Mother Bear shares her catches", and all that. The idea of taking "shelter" under the protection of the bear and being fed and warmed by it, a homey spot in the wilderness, taps into an archetypical attraction.
In practical terms, you go and try to cause a fuss in...

I'd burn that inn to the ground, and have a posse outside to make sure none escape.
No good can come from such beasts.
>>44685814
I don't have the SRD open, but aren't werebears like lawful good or something?
>>44685839
Yep, by default werebears are lawful good.

ANON CREATED A CHARACTER FOR THE GAME! POLL RESULTS FINALIZED!
The poll results have been counted and the votes are tallied up. 3 boards (/tg/, /v/ and /vg/) were tasked with voting to create a named hero character for the game, which will be included on release day. The character will be summonable via a secret menu in the stage coach by pressing enter. After a week of voting, the following is what you and your fellow autists created:
Name: Briar Patch
Class: Plague Doctor
Clothing: Red cloak w/gold trim

Darkest Dungeon. The short answer is that I backed it on Kickstarter and shared the reward of making my own content with my fellow anons. We held straw polls, everyone voted for this character. She's 4chan's own plague waifu.
Let's have ourselves a worldbuilding thread, /tg/.
While everyone should feel free to share settings and ideas from your current project(s), experience has shown these threads tend to live a little longer when people ask for specific types of help. With this in mind, please start or end setting info posts with specific areas you'd like help in.
Have fun and be excellent to each other.

About a week ago I shared some bits about my magic system. Essentially it boiled down to magic being powered by souls; meaning human and animal sacrifices were needed for the most powerful stuff.
At the time, I was planning on using this in a Viking-esque world, but I recently changed it to take place in a Phoenician-centric world. There's an emphasis on exploration and I intend to have the PCs be on a ship, but instead of being vikings they'll focus on Odyssey-style adventures during trade/exploration missions.
So far my NOT-Assyrians and NOT-Greeks are...

So here's how I'm pretty sure the AD&D territory minigame works -- the first uses a 200 yard hex scale, the second uses a 1 mile hex scale, the third a 30 mile campaign hex scale.
The way it work as I understand it is, is basically, you gotta clear out the top map to begin work on a stronghold. On the second one, the green shaded area is how much you have to clear to make the area be considered "civilized" and no longer get hordes of hostile encounters.

I'll work on this one next.

I'm not really familiar with this and my classic DnD knowledge is very lacking. Sorry Anon.

Not that guy and I don't want to pressure you, but here's the PDF about it. It's well worth a look just for the conceptual stuff in it.
