Well /tg/, after the last sequence of flops, Vault-Tecs approval committee was fed to Deathclaws. So new parameters had to be made.
Roll a D20 using the Board Sticky, rolls higher than 10 are truths about the Vault, rolls of 20 cannot be retconned.

Really Konrad?

Really, Guilliman.
The way I see it, doing things like that wasn't his way of promoting justice. Rather, he had a problem, and like that he solved it.
he was a nutcase

For each time I wage war against worlds that threaten the Imperium's advance, there comes another time I am told to conquer peaceful worlds that wish only to be left alone.

He was already well inclined to hate the Emperor, and having come from a slaves background was particularly sensitive to such things. You notice most of the taitor primarchs started off as the underclass and won control of their worlds against tyranny.
>>43961145
I'm sure some of the more reasonable Primarchs like Sanguinius or Vulkan had questions and got satisfactory answers.
Neither seems to be interested in war for wars sake, even compared to some of their loyalist brothers like Khan or Russ.
>>43961166
I'd say as many loyalists did as well. I know Pert and Magnus were upper class on their homeworlds from the start.

Damn disgraceful that is. What ever shall we do?!

We shall go to sleep.
Its probably not the answer you wanted to hear, but its the one you'll receive.
I've actually been fiddling with something (wouldn't call it a system, just a bunch of rules and stuff right now) that has the players play as a band of skeletons in a worldwide graveyard. You fight, scavenge and thrive. Or you die, and your bones are used for some other to advance. Think of something along the lines of Monster Hunter: Spooky Scary Skeleton Edition. Complete with dragon, kraken, mammoth, and even abomination skeletons

How did I miss that...
>>43960346
Flee, hide.
The character is basically dead if you stay out in the open, and he probably is even if you hide.
Maybe fake a death?
Your odds against a lone Spartan are very slim. Against a fireteam, it's so low as to be next to nothing. Run, hide, get the hell out, or give ONI something more important to worry about.

Hey guys,
I just thought of a really great balancing mechanism for role-playing games.
>The greater your proficiency with a skill, the more likely you are to accidentally use that skill.
This should prevent characters from becoming overpowered once they reach higher levels.
I... Don't understand. Why does this improve anything?
>>43958570
What? So if i'm really good at painting i will suddenly start to draw all over someone's face in the middle of a conversation?
>>43958570
>>The greater your proficiency with a skill, the more likely you are to accidentally use that skill.
I can see the rational behind this. Someone who fences all the time takes a fencing pose when they play air hockey. Someone who paints constantly is always aware of how the colours inside a building clash and how the shadow is totally off.
But how does this stop characters from become overpowered?
If anything, doesn't that make it worse? That they're...

MTG Modern General?
Honourary Faeries Edition
That card has won me quite a few drafts back in the day. Being a 1 drop flyer that can potentially replace itself is pretty damn amazing. Its really a shame that it isn't viable in modern.
I really hate this Faerie meme.

The bird isn't made of gaseous form.
You are Siris Erickson, and you are a mutant. This is hardly surprising, considering both of your parents are mutants, and you grew up surrounded by mutants. Despite being somewhat of a late bloomer with your powers, the leaders of the Xavier Institute saw incredible potential in you and your abilities. With the ability to control the wavelength and frequency of light, as well as emit light from your body, you could theoretically do incredible things, although that is currently limited to a limited control over the light in the surrounding area and the ability to concentrate...

A week has passed since the end of your intense and exciting, if a bit distressing, first week at the Xavier Institute. Life has more or less returned to a new normal, with you falling into a semi-daily ritual fairly quickly. You adapt incredibly well to life at Xavier’s, likely due to your own experiences with mutants. Nothing too exciting happens during the week, the most interesting thing being the field day exercises you and your squad do occasionally.

It IS kind of what we went to the Academy for. Plus with all the bad mutant robbing stuff and.. yeah, getting [AdvanceLaserPlus] or [Novice's Hardlight Armor ]doesn't sound like a bad idea.

What does /tg/ think of golems and how are they usually used in your campaign?
Have you ever played a sentient golem like a warforge or otherwise?

"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,...

Which is better, Sorcery or Ritual Path Magic?
>>43957530
I think Ritual Path Magic is more interesting, but only works if the players care enough to actually read it and understand enough to use the system without you doing everything for them.
Sorcery is better if the GM wants tight reign on the system or wants a system that supports high power levels easily.
Become The Dragon Quest 28
You are Countess Kotijah Imidarius, and you want to be a dragon. You have known since your birth that you wanted to be one of them, to be among your ancestors, a true dragon. Instead you have been confined to something less, something lacking the grace, ferocity and raw power that you deserve.
Last night you celebrated your hard-won victory over the Order of Oak with a party, and after several rounds of drinking and risque games you wound up in bed with Taret. It was... nice. After everything Kat told you, you were expecting your first...

The rules:
Best of three rolls, critical threat on a 20, confirmed if another roll is 20-modifier or higher. Modifier is Stat being rolled+Relevant skill. You can decide which skill to apply. If no one applies one, no skill will be added on. If you don't have a logical reason to apply a skill, don't do it.
Critical fails are at least two 1s on a roll....

>Let Taret sleep in, he's earned it
Glad that an important decision like whether Kot loses her virginity was done as the result of a majority decision in the high point of a thread instead of two suggestions in the dead of night neither of which even requested anything beyond light lewds.
Oh wait.
