How often to Harems appear in your games?

Close to none. Never had a game where a harem played any significance to the story. Mostly just mentioned if at all. Otherwise it is just white knight bait.

“Your highness,” the general made a small bow as he entered the Crown Prince Siegfried Strosvald’s chambers, “I requested an audience. May I be granted some of your grace’s time?”

“You may.” The crown prince stood looking out a window of his guest manor in Messingplatz. Outside were the camps of his army, fresh and strong troops from the Strosvald interior. In his opinion, he could have taken the Reich with what he had now, but his father and other advisors had told him to wait for reinforcements before beginning his attack. “What is your concern, General Halfrich?”

“It is our allies to the north, my lord.” General Halfrich said. Siegfried was not fond of the way Halfrich’s face looked. It had a hoglike aspect to it that made it impossible to concentrate on what he was saying. “The army of Plisseau is a castle made of sand. I and many others fear it will not hold as we need it to.”

Prince Siegfried looked away from Halfrich’s tiny watery eyes and formulated a reassurance. “All they have to do is hold in place. The Kaiser’s armies are dispersed and understrength. They will shatter against our armies like waves upon rocks.”

“If that is indeed the case, your highness, then would it not be best to try and hold in a strong line and not, as we are preparing to do, leave our walls to fight the enemy directly?”

“General Halfrich,” the Crown Prince pretended to be offended, “the army of Strosvald is not an army of apes that all it can do is stand upon a wall and beat its chest. It is a modern army, and modern armies control the flow of battle by attacking. We are not a nation of spears and sieges, we are one with tanks and airplanes.”

Halfrich knew plenty of modern tactics and strategy. He knew that Strosvald’s interpretation of them was merely aping that of the Reich, who had pioneered such warfare. The War of Emrean Liberation was an important lesson in their nation’s capabilities, revealing how important the Emrean heartland had been to extended warfare. The Reich had lost due to being unable to win the war before they petered out and grew weak while the Emrean revolutionaries were able to rely on their vast natural resources. Strosvald had read the Reich’s books, but knew little of executing what they taught. Such thought flew through his mind, but to challenge the Prince would be pointless.

“Very well sir,” he said instead, “I have no further questions.”

You are Lieutenant Richter Von Tracht, and you are quite a few things. Tank platoon commander, recently commissioned officer of the 2nd Royal Guards Division, petty nobility and professional princess smuggler. Or whatever you’d call Maddalyn, the noble spawn you had picked up all the way back at the beginning of the war. Nothing had the same punch as princess.

You had recently found out about a smattering of peculiar happenings. Oversized invasive fauna and secretive wizards being the particular things, which would have been incredibly interesting if not for the fact that the Grossreich of Czeiss was devouring the country. For the purposes of staying focused on the more pressing matters, you had shoved thoughts of the mysteries of soulbinding and their elusive practitioners to the side. From what Bertram, a soulbinder whom you had once thought was a normal if quite skilled soldier of Strosvald, had said, he would be taking care of most of it anyway. He had been averse to answering more questions that had appeared since you had reunited anyway.

The afternoon of the day you had met with Bertram again, it was time to move out of the capital and back to the front lines. A major battle was said to be coming up; a battle where the armies of the Archduke would rout the Kaiser’s hordes and turn the tide of the war. The call had gone up, and your platoon moved out with the rest of their new company to load their tanks onto trains to Messingplatz, the assembling area of the Siegfried Army, named for the Crown Prince who was leading the counterattack.

There was one last issue of Maddalyn making herself troublesome as usual.
>>
“That woman never stops belittling me!” she complained to you. She had changed from her usual fashionable apparel to the coverall of an army mechanic. She had no experience in mechanical upkeep or repair, but she had agreed to assist your new platoon mechanic, Elli, after your recommendation. You presumed it would result in far fewer headaches in the future as she would stop trying to hurtle herself into the frontlines. As much as she liked to pretend otherwise, she knew as little of soldiering as she did of mechanics.

“I don’t mind working under her, I’m not too proud for that. I just need some…time away from her. Please?” She made pleading eyes at you like a small dog would. She was a relatively cute girl, with shoulder length red locks and blue eyes, but you knew more than enough about her to not be swayed by a pretty face.

As a lieutenant, you would be quartered in the officer cars along with all the other commissioned officers. She would not be bothered by the officers as she might be by the enlisted men, as most of the officers were of noble bearing similar to her own.

>You may come along with me if you are that bothered

>Nothing will improve between you two if you avoid each other at the first opportunity. Stay with Elli.

>Perhaps your relationship will improve if her superior is around. I will come with you to your car.

On stalling or quick scoring.

In general you score quick if you have a bunch of KOs and/or your players are in danger of being blocked and injured.

Like wood elves usually won't cage (there's always a chance they get a couple early KOs and they out bash someone), but in general if you have low AV and a chance to score you'll take it.

If you have piece advantage and can cage without too much risk then it's obviously the correct strategy.

Usually stalling will always cost you blocks and amour rolls but it's not uncommon to be in an advantageous scrum where you can stall while retaining block advantage. It depends on what team you are, what team you're against, the status of casualties and kos and above all else the match score.

Old Thread >>>>44201149

"But why GURPS?"

1) The splatbooks/worldbooks are universally written by people who know what they're talking about. The Fantasy book is written by archaeologists and historians, the Space book is written by astrophysicists, the Guns book is written by gun experts, etc. The factual mistakes are few and far between, and almost always acknowledged later. They give great advice on how to make believable worlds, how FTL affects society, how magic changes warfare, how real supernatural elements change secret societies... or how to ignore all realism and make whatever setting you want in a way that players can't take advantage of. They're great reads, even if you don't use the system.

2) GURPS has rules to handle anything. You don't need to use them all (why bother with rules for asphyxiating in a vacuum in a game about biker gangs?) but they're there. So if a game doesn't go where you expect, and your party of adventurers buy a wagon and start managing a merchant caravan company, there are books to support that style of play in a systemic way, integrated with the core rules in a way that makes sense. This also makes it great for crazy blends of game. Dungeonpunk with automatic firearms? Yes.

3) GURPS by default uses "heroic realism". This is when the odds on the heroes' sides but reality doesn't bend for them. Two bullets will knock a human unconscious (but not immediately kill him - this is fairly realistic) but hitting a moving target more than 100m away in a firefight is hard as hell. It suits games that go for a realistic or gritty feel and gives a break from the slightly cartoony damage sponges in games like D&D but can be customised with optional rules to change the feel from "Fuck You, There Are No Heroes and the World is Shit" right up to "The Heroes are Good and Always Triumph Over Evil". Incidentally, what makes it heroic realism also makes it the best game on the market to play a game about Operators Operating Operationally.
>>
>>44319381
I'll give my answer on that question:
1. Because GURPS covers almost all games I care to play, and making a conversion to GURPS usually faster, than learning and entire new system.
2. Because I like combat in GURPS. At it's base it is simple, yet there is enough options to make it as complex as you want it to be. It can give all the spectrum of feelings: from gritty and dangerous combat with "one mistake - one corpse" to heroic battle with lots of HP and good defences from either side, "swing it away".
3. GURPS designed as constructor. Seeing that I mainly play my own settings, that is a blessing. In other systems, I always begin with extensive homeruling to shape system up to my liking - and players don't always like it. In GURPS it is expected and encouraged.
4. GURPS have metric tons of skills, advantages and equipment. In most cases, it also have the rules to create them.
5. Almost every character can be created in GURPS. Almost every ability you imagine can be created in GURPS.

For all you out there on the spectrum or who game with someone diagnosed as such, how has traditional gaming affected you?

Do you feel it helps or hinders with your ability to socialize with others? Does the use of roleplay as an insulator for personal interaction play into it much? Or has it just been a way to meet and connect with people?

Stories welcome, both horrible and heartwarming.

I'm on the spectrum. I was pretty bad as a child, but throughout my teens learned to be high functioning. The other players (D&D) just thought my retard breakdowns were RP. Everyone is autistic when they play games. Socializing is hard, but if you know the DM it's easier. You can mainly ignore the players, but if you are unfamiliar with the game master, it's hard to communicate.

It is, however, still very much a work in progress. Any thoughts on general power/issues would be highly appreciated.

Can someone explain the point of this "failing forward" meme to me?

/tg/ seems to have taken to this like a kid to candy and I really want the name of the stranger who's dolling this shit out and I should remind /tg/ that you shouldn't suck on every lollipop that comes out of a dude's pants.

This shit baffles me. /tg/ will rant and rave for HOURS about "muh player agency" this and "muh meaningful choices" that, but then they'll go and say that it's okay that the GM basically railroad players every time a failure should mean that they miss out.

Let's define our terms. I've seen posters use the example of trying to get an audience with the king by chatting up the guards. If you fail your Diplomacy/Persuasion/Schmoozing roll to get them to trust you enough to let you inside, and the guards would otherwise take a hike, you should let them "fail forward." IE, you basically let them through, but with some extra bullshit baggage. Like the guard is some agent of an evil vizier and now he's gunna remember your faces or the guard thinks your mom is ugly or some other dumb shit. Because that is apparently a fair consequence of a roll made specifically to determine whether or not you can talk this guy into trusting you enough to get an audience with the king.

What is this dumb shit? This is railroading. This is LITERALLY railroading. You planned on the PCs talking their way past the guards, they failed, but oh hey lucky them you're just gunna ignore that failure and let em pass. But I guess they lose Karma points or whatever.

Why are you even rolling at that point? Why is it apparently better to give the PCs this stupid illusion of choice instead of either just letting them through without rolling, or straight up telling them that the guards won't let em through and that they had better think of another plan to get the king's attention, BECAUSE THEY FAILED THE ROLL? Is this some FATE bullshit or something?

Someone explain this meme to me and why it's become so popular.

Is it fantasy or historical fiction?

If it's historical fiction, then fine, you can be as grimdark medieval as you want.

If it's fantasy, you're under no obligation to do that. Fantasy with modern morals - social equality and individual freedoms, for instance - is still fantasy. You can also be as grimdark fascist as you like.

It's fantasy. Just because their fantasy isn't your fantasy doesn't make them immature little shits. It just means you like different sub-genres.

Welcome to Academy City. The time is evening, the weather is stormy, and the date is February 1.

You are Kyril Torikov, Level 3 telekinetic ‘superhero’ and you were being scolded by your immediate superior. The Problem Children, plus Nakazawa, were looking on in amusement. Well, Kyousuke wasn’t but that was only because he was still in his medically induced coma. The sight was undoubtedly hilarious from their point of view. Here you were, missing an arm, and a primary school girl was standing in your lap, attempting to tower over you while emphatically voicing her displeasure. Earlier today, the Problem Children had decided to pay the Guild a visit in force. Thanks to your inside man, the inside of the establishment had been repainted red, and the Guild had effectively been decapitated. Nayuta was rather angry that you had lost an arm. You honestly didn’t see why though. Any halfway decent doc could simply just pop it back in to your now-rebuilt left shoulder socket.

As Nayuta continued her little tantrum, you considered the matter of rearmament further. This was a great opportunity to stick some extra functionality in to your new replacement arm. Maybe you could ask for an integrated firearm, a concealed blade, or better yet, nerve endings. From what you knew of Nayuta she was more cyborg than human. It stood to reason that she couldn’t possibly go about her life without the sensation of touch. You weren’t sure and couldn’t confirm short of molesting her. Surely it wouldn’t hurt to ask about rearming yourself. It was just a matter of broaching the subject. Nayuta was still going on about your “irresponsibility” and “excesses.” Her tirade didn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon. Another thing that you knew about your boss was that she was entirely too vulnerable to surprises. Knowing that, you decided to,

It's not my fault you guys chose an irresponsible criminal instead of an upstanding citizen for your little robocop project.

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Lightsaber" bullshit that's going on in the Star Wars system right now. Shock Batons deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.
I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine First Order Riot Control Stormtrooper's Shock Baton in Imperial Space for 2,400,000 Galactic Credits (that's about $2) and have been practicing with it for almost 2 years now. I can even cut slabs of solid steel with my Shock Baton.
First Order smiths spend years working on a single shock baton and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest blades known to mankind.
Shock Batons are thrice as sharp as a Jedi's swords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a lightsaber can cut through, a shock baton can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a Shock Baton could easily bisect a Mandalorian wearing full plate Cortosis Weave with a simple vertical slash.
Ever wonder why the Galactic Republic never bothered conquering The First Order? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined Stormtroopers and their shock batons of destruction. Even in the Clone Wars, Kaminoan Clone soldiers targeted the men with the shock batons first because their killing power was feared and respected.
So what am I saying? Shock batons are simply the best sword that the world has ever seen, and thus, require better stats in the d20 system. Here is the stat block I propose for Shock Batons:
(One-Handed Exotic Weapon)
1d12 Damage
19-20 x4 Crit
+2 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork
(Two-Handed Exotic Weapon)
2d10 Damage
17-20 x4 Crit
+5 to hit and damage
Counts as Masterwork
Now that seems a lot more representative of the cutting power of Shock Batons in real life, don't you think?
tl;dr = Shock Batons need to do more damage in Star Wars, see my new stat block.

Warhammer Fantasy General, focused on the fluff and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. 1st and 2nd Edition, but discussion on 3rd Edition and the Tabletop is welcomed... ish.

Another thread is yet again about to fall of the board, so I'm starting yet another one. Let's try to not let this one derail.

If you see our resident autist coming back and posting meaningless shitposts even though things have been explained to him for the past five threads, hit the "▶" to the right of his post number and report him.

End Times and Age of Shitmar need not apply. If that's your cup of tea, there's an ongoing thread for beaten housewives with stockholm syndrome elsewhere on the board, no need to shit up this one thread, please.

>I have a question that I want to ask, but I know it's going to be extremely controversial to the Warhammer community, but I have to ask it:
>WFR, WFRP, WHFRP, WRFRP, WRHFRP
>Which is correct?
>I've always assumed WFRP (W.arhammer F.antasy R.ole P.lay) but in my time on this board I've seen all the above versions in reference to it.

I've always used "WHFRP", the TT being "WHFB".

What I'm asking myself is what the hell WRFRP or WRHFRP is supposed to stand for. Where does the "R" between W and H come in?

Extremely little, afaik. Even less than about Ind and Cathay, which is saying a lot.

Adversary is a new, custom format for Magic: The Gathering intended to be played over Cockatrice.
35 Adversaries and counting!

>How is it played?
In Adversary, players select an Adversary card from an existing archive, or create their own. These Adversaries enter play from turn one, and possess abilities that change the way the game is played. If you've ever tried out Vanguard, you'll feel right at home. Adversary uses 61-card decks (including the Adversary card).
The format is Modern Singleton, and the banlist can be found here: http://pastebin.com/4JUSJp01

>How are Adversaries balanced?
Each Adversary is assigned three values: a life total, a starting hand size, and a level. The life total and starting hand size are used to balance Adversaries based on the power of their abilities. In the event that they cannot be effectively balanced this way, Adversaries are also assigned a level, indicating that they are only suited for play against Adversaries of a similar level.

>How can I make my own Adversary?
Post your desired rules text, color identity, illustration and artist-to-credit in this thread and I might make it for you! Alternatively, make it yourself in Photoshop or an MTG card creation program. I will then add it to the .xml file and it will become available to everyone.

For a limited time, proposed Adversaries will only be added to the .xml file if they are pitched by people who have played at least one Adversary match on Cockatrice. This is to encourage playing as well as creating, since both are just as important in helping the format to grow. If you've played a match but you've already had three or more of your Adversaries added to the .xml, people with less than three accepted Adversaries will take priority. This restriction will be removed after the next update.

Hey mate, you should eventually remove the creator-biased middleman and upload a template to MSE or something.

>All cards in your hand have Megamorph. You may turn them up paying their mana cost.
>All face down cards you control have +0/+2, Hexproof and Vigilance
>Whenever a card turns face up it becomes unblockable until the end of turn.
