GLORY TO THE GOD EMPEROR OF MANKIND!!!!
Hello delicious friends,
I want to use FL as setting for a campaign. Has anyone already done this? Which system should I use?
>>43985588
Nice doubles.
Never used it as a setting, but it opens up a wide variety of possibilities and could be used in just about any system for any angle.
Band of prison-free fighters on a quest to kill shit? Sure.
Sleuths searching for the source of the rubbery men? Sure.
Stealing shit? But of course.
Bandaged gentlemen looking for their next target and wooing them at a ball? Got it covered.
Shit for the masters, always an option.

>>43985588
I think Blades in the Dark might be what you are looking for. Attached is one of the early versions.
>>43985588
I've been in a play-by-post game once, technically still am. It's on infinite hiatus, though.
We used FATE, which works well, but it isn't all that mechanically interesting to me.
I would probably just use Paranoia. It's easy enough to adapt, as chaotic and opaque to the player as the Neath, you can keep most of the cheap death and conspiracy stuff, and the players don't need to prepare.
Welcome to Academy City. The time is evening, the weather is drizzly, and the date is January 29.
You are Kyril Torikov, Level 3 telekinetic ‘superhero’ and you had just been released from custody by your boss. It helped that she was also law enforcement. You were too but not in your civilian persona. Your day job was running a protection racket. It was complete with things like managing employee ‘retirement plans’ and ‘dispute mediation’ with local law enforcement. At least now your civilian self could boast of having been arrested, if only to be taken in...

Nayuta can use the sniper as our backup
What is the next step of your BBEG's master plan?
>>43985555
Manipulating two nations to fight one another and destabilizing the region before calling in the army he's been preparing for years (some of which he'll 'recruit' from the manipulated) to sweep up the refuse.
Mostly the second part, because the war has started, it's just not in full force yet.
Right now the party is none the wiser.
>>43985555
Probably launch SCUD missiles with chemical warheads at cities and military bases
>>43985555
Crashing the game.
If a robot or android, knowing it is effectively immortal be perfectly fine with doing more dangerous tasks? If its body gets destroyed it's as simple as loading a backup into another body or simply taking the protected memory from the destroyed body.
Or perhaps they might not like the idea of being considered so 'disposable'?
>>43985389
Perhaps the complexities of fictional synthetic intelligence make this question not have a single, unified answer.
>>43985389
Depends on how reliable said "immortality" is. If there's a risk of permanently dying, they might not like it so much. They might also be bothered if they lose short term memories that didn't have a chance to be backed up. It's pretty awkward to be doing something, then the next second you're waking up in a new body with someone telling you that the last week of your life got deleted when a truck ran you over or something.
>>43985389
Yes, this makes robots the perfect suicide bombers. Alloy akbar!
So I got the four imperial assassins done in the blocky chibi style.
>>43985042
>>43985042
I would still play the shit out of that game.
I also did a few inquisitors in the last thread. Added some Jokaero recently.
>tfw my gynoid is malfunctioning again
What setting do you guys use for your gynoid?
Louis, did you set it to 200% MAD again?

Hey /tg/,
A while a go we had a server for minecraft called Parnatha. Lots of /tg/ presence. It got shut down because of lack of funds and time.
I'm going to start it up again on a new world, many new features. Any of the old players out there? Or any new players interested.
Pic related is the new map,
Here is the old thread for the OLD map.

The map was hand tooled by Moonti.
Custom Biomes, giant more realistic continent, still all the ores and caves with taller mountains.
All renders of the gameworld, done by maruku.
It is I, the worst Primarch.

/threadSage is invisible now guys
>>43984744
That's not how you spell Dorn.
>>43985812
Dorn didn't kill 10,000 of his own men because he was pissed off his legion wasn't the best.
Pretty simple. We are playing a Pathfinder campaign but ONLY using the basic book.
The druid of our team wants to multiclass with barbarian and I was wondering if this would be a good idea and if you could help me with the ways of doing so (remember, only basic book).
Also I was wondering if it is possible to use your rage powers while in animal shape.
>core only pathfinder
>CORE RULEBOOK ONLY PATHFINDER
>multi classing a caster class
The best way to build this is to quit the fucking game, and play something else.
The second best way is to just focus on wild shape fighting and just mention his character is just really angry.
Dear LORD, core rule book only pathfinder what the actually fuck is wrong with you people.
>>43984729
Yeah.. I don't like it either but the GM is new and unsure about unleashing all the books on us.
I take that rage powers can't mix with wild shape at all then and this would be a terrible decision.
>>43984729
Just curious, why core Pathfinder is THAT bad?
>blanket resistances and immunities
Was 4e the only post-1e D&D edition to do away with these?
>>43984553
What do you mean by "blanket resistances and immunities"?
Do you mean things like fire resistance (which 4e has the same as other editions) or something else?
>>43984699
"These guys (especially undead, demons, devils, etc.) get loads of resistances and immunities for no real reason even when you would hardly expect them without having read the Monster Manual."
>>43985058
Oh, so retarded shit like "Durr you can't backstab undead"? Seriously, what fucking mongoloid thought that was a good idea?

Sup /OSR/
I'm trying to track down where this image of gnolls came from. All I know it's from some 2e D&D book. Any grognard-greybeard here have a clue?
What is this grey blasphemy? I demand Blue Icon, for it is easy to find.

> That's why I'm splitting oil into lamp oil and burning oil in my upcoming game.
Gygax messed up anyway -- medieval lamp oil was vegetable oil, and if you try to light it without a wick, it'll just extinguish the flame. Even kerosene will do this, and that's way better than period lamp oil.
> Regular lamp oil will just make the area slippery, serving as a different detterent than say, caltrops, or a pool of burning oil.
(some googling) ... Yeah. But how much would the burning oil cost? And what exactly was it?
>>43984229
Oh god this is awesome how could I miss this?

None is plenty.

>What kind of MCs do we need more?
The kind whose role in the setting, goals in life, and general attitude are more mundane. I'm tired to death of chosen ones, exiled royalty, and fulfillers of destiny.
Somebody make a quest where the MC's goal is mundane. Like perfecting the recipe for the realm's...

You are Tsukuda Ryouta, a Shinigami of the 12th Division.
Almost two years have passed since Urahara Kisuke, the Captain of the Division, had you graduate prematurely from the Academy to have you focus on more specialized training for your future post. Unlike your time in the Academy, your duties stand out in the 12th Division - you've received the unique, semi-official rank of a spiritual investigator; your duty is to investigate paranormal occurrences in the Human World. It pays well even though it's unofficial, far better than most graduates could normally hope for.
Those two years were mostly spent studying rather than physically training. You occasionally had to practice the basics with an instructor, to make sure that you wouldn't forget the things you've learned from the Academy, but that's as far as it ever went. Urahara Kisuke didn't have the time to tutor you personally, though he devised your studying program himself. In addition to that, there was also the Shinigami Research and Development Institute's primer: their rules, several courses on the equipment they use, advanced terms on spiritual composition, a more detailed study of the world's balance, human history, the physics of the Human World... There was a lot to go through, but you won't feel lost outside of Soul Society anymore.
The barracks are comfortable and you didn't have much trouble getting used to the new conditions. Your neighbors haven't asked for much more than your name and you make sure not to bother them unless you need to.
You haven't had any contact with the people you knew back at the Academy. They've graduated by now as well, so it's not surprising if they don't have the time. You probably shouldn't bother them for a while.
(1/2)

This morning, you've received a Hell Butterfly with Urahara's summonings. You immediately head out to the Spiritual Wave Measurement Lab, the destination he specified. After exchanging polite greetings and a little small talk, the Captain explains himself.
"A Shinigami named Ito Satoshi, 8th Division, has been persistently reporting Hollow slayings when none had actually occurred according to our readings. He's upset because we're withholding the bounty, but we can't even determine...

"Much lighter than the stuff we used previously, isn't it? And you don't need to rely on complex Kido or the slow Hell Butterflies anymore if you don't want to carry all of that weight. The future sure is great, isn't it?" He chuckles a bit. You nod.
"Oh, and there's something else." He hands you another small device that fits comfortably into your palm. It's a blue-tinted glass container coated in white plastic. There are a few buttons on it. "When you...
