Does the Jedi council pair hot padawans with powerful senators often? Is that why they have so much political sway?

Na, the Jedi Council are terrified of sex because once upon a time this one thing happened and therefore never ever again forever and ever.

No because senators are not allowed to have sex, it's in the rules.

>>44207339
The robot is from the far future, where the civilisation from the present has wiped themselves out due to nuclear war/climate change/aliens/magic/whatever, and a new civilisation has taken its place and grown to the point where it can make time travelling robots. The technology from the future exists to combat that issue, and hopefully ensure that the current race survives up to the future that the robot came from.

The robot is taking notable items to his future because they're needed, either as antiques to sell for a shit load of digital cash or because the techniques needed to make them are lost due to data loss/memory wiping/lost papers/whatever.

>Alternate theory: Robot comes from the far future where the current civilisation has fallen and a new one has risen, and is just a massive fucking weeb for the present civilisation's culture, and wants them all to live with him in his future while taking key items to adorn his awkward [present civilisation] shrine he's kept in his manufacturing box.

Time travel is risky and the supercomputer that sent it back doesn't want to risk destroying everything just to give its minion slightly better technology.

anyway, where do you guys get inspiration for the worldbuilding when you DM?
I'm about to start a short campaign, because our usual DM will be out of town for a month or so. The world is supposed to be a mashup of gaming and book related lore which I like, cause our usual DMs world is similarly build around a mix of mtg, wow and might & magic lore

Why does /tg/ always call "SHILL! SHILL! SHILL!" whenever someone tries to drum up interest in an RPG or some other /tg/-related product they like, as if developers regularly come to /tg/ to peddle their products?

And when developers actually do show themselves in threads like /wodg/ or /pfg/, everyone is all welcoming and chummy all of a sudden instead of calling out shilling.

Because when someone randomly posts a thread about some weird RPG and tries to get everyone interested in it, it usually sounds pretty fake.

Like, most people asking about an RPG usually post something along the lines of "Does anyone play whatever?" and that's it.

So when you get posts like "Anyone play whatever? It's really good and nice and new and indie and on sale right now." It's pretty obvious of their intent.

When devs show up in threads about their products that are already running, it's pretty obvious they're not there to hawk their product. Everyone in the thread is most likely already owning it or interested, after all.
>>
>>44206768
>someone tries to drum up interest

That's what shilling is.
>>
Ironically, I wouldn't mind at all if developers came here to promote their game. Like they created a thread, used a trip, and as well as showing and talking about their game and posting info and insider pics, they also answered questions and took input and stuff. Not like an ongoing general thread every day or so, but every once in awhile? Sure.

When someone does it for free though, even someone who has nothing to do with the developers or the game? No way.

anyone selling a casual only version of "Emrakul, of aeons torn." for around 3-5$?

I don't want to have the card be obviously fake, but not real enough to be called out on.

He's trying to buy forged cards, anon.

Most people use them for EDH/casual when the real deal is $20+.

The quality of knock-offs is so good now that you really can't tell, ESPECIALLY in a sleeve. You have to be a special kind of autist to hold a card up and squint and bust out a magnifying glass to look for interlacing and shit.

Which, yeah, they do at a big tournament, but most people are getting away with murder out there.

You are adventuring in a dungeon and discover a large treasure chest. You manage to get it open, and inside are a bunch of balls (and a few cubes) that are painted in strange symbols. They seem to be alive, able to move on their own, and are constantly communicating with each other. Pic related.

"We need the Rose cultists," you decide at last. "Even with as few numbers as they have they're better than the soldiers we don't have. That means taking out the mercs that are digging near here."

"Those'll be mine," River says quietly. "I was on patrol when we got ambushed. Black Hammer company, currently with two oni attached, supervised by one of Lisa's subordinates."

"She has subordinates?" Nathan asks.

"Yeah. Name's Kelly. Her mother was a traveling minstrel. Her father was a very persuasive rakshasa."

You stare flatly at the elf. "She's a catgirl demon?"

"Yep."

"Amy, next time, we bring booze, so I can drink statements like that out of my life and never remember them again."

Amy flashes you a grin.

"What can we expect?" Nathan asks.

"Black Hammer's hardened troops, but they're scared of the demon and the oni. Take them out, and the rest will probably disperse. Honestly, between Lisa not shelling out for healing and the Keepers being as vicious as they've been, morale is shit. They might just pull out."

"Good to know," you note. "What do you know about oni?"

"Big. Big weapons. Fast for their size, persuasive, ugly as sin, and mean. And before you ask, the only thing I know about Kelly is that she calls men and women into her tent every night and they show up needing medical attention in the morning."

"I don't like it," Nathan muses. "Lots of unknowns. And with the environment this cramped, we'll probably have to turn any attempt at recon into an ambush."

"What if someone assassinated the demon?" Amy proposes. "Fetch or I could do it." The undead chicken preens, proudly.

"Definitely a thought..."

My nephew has been expressing a big interest in Warhammer 40k fluff after seeing my models. I'm not sure his parents would appreciate the expense of getting him into the game, so I was thinking about getting him a 40k novel or two for Christmas. Possibly Dawn of War I as well.

What would you suggest as a good starter novel for someone with little knowledge of the setting? Space Wolves Omnibus? Ciaphas Cain? Pic related, one of the first ones I ever read back in high school.

You are J'amp Guud. Big Chief of the Bullywugs. You are destined to unite the tribes of the swamplands, or die trying


The new huts are a priority. Workers devote even more time to them. 1 turns till new huts, can devote actions to shorten time.

A raid is launched on the Claudhappers. With Sprucke and J'amp each leading groups of hopper-riders and warriors respectively.
J'amp's group comes upon a group of Claudhappers who are taken care of before our warriors are spotted. They find something interesting while investigating the bodies. It is a small clutch of eggs
+2 morale
>Free action
J'amp decides that these eggs will grow up as members of tribe. Hopefully they will kill many of the Claudhappers.
+400 eggs


Growing up is hard for a Bullywug, not all eggs make it to tadpoledom, not all tadpoles make it to adulthood, such is life.
The tribe has never been this large! Unfortunately, we do not have enough houses and it is very cramped. -0.5 morale every turn

Stats
Pop: 776 male, 690 female Bullywugs, 0 tadpoles, 400 eggs
Military: 460 warriors, 20 hopper-riders
Workforce: 20 weaponsmiths
Food: 5 turns
Morale: 7.5/10
Tech level: Tribal
Tech Unlocked: simple Stone working. Mud construction. Stone tools. Weaving.
Weapons: every Bullywug has his/her own Stone spear.20 iron spears for J'amp and his most trusted warriors. 60 bows. 30 wooden shields.
Tools: 20 shovels, 20 axes, 20 fishing nets.
Stockpile: 80units Stone, 60units wood.
Locations: Home swamp, Hooper breeding grounds, Skumjamper Village
Structure: Simple mud huts, hopper breeding pen
Livestock: 20 hoppers
Diplo: Claudhappers: encroaching on territory (purple on map). Skumjampers: Allies (gold on map)

2 actions per turn, vote first then roll for the action we decided on

Are they sapient individuals or sapient hivemind? Because that would be two very different results.

Thread topic: Riggers - What would you like to see improved or added to make them usable in 5e?
355 posts and 50 images submitted.

Ok I have a player who thinks he does not need more then one sin and uses his "real name" Now the type of game I'm running has them doing legal work but I wanted to know if there is any rules on tracking a sin or do the person in question just need to know the right people?
>>
>>44199253
NOOOOOOOOO
>>
>>44199756
Well there are rules for checking a fake sin, and if it fails once then it will fail any and all future tests of any type.
The SIN is used to track purchases at legal establishments, licenses and things like rent and bills. so if you have access to the SIN database you could see those things as well as when and where the SIN was checked for validity.
As far as tracking where they are right now from their SIN, I would say a matrix perception looking for a commlink broadcasting that SIN then you would have to get marks on it then run a trace.

If the person knows the right people and never buys things from "legal" places and lives in a place that doesn't care about sin (like an slum apartment for orks and trolls), then their SIN wont have much to track. or they might know a decent ID forger who can get them more than one SIN.
