Is D&D 3E/3.5 considered old school yet?
Reminder that people considered AD&D 2E old-school by the time 4E came out.
>>43937727
I'd say 3e is, but 3.5e is not.
You guys remember Zarus, the Lawful Evil Greater Deity of Humans?
A half-elf Warlock that wants to wipe out a particular sect of elven kind and prove that half-elves are the superior race in my game made a Pact with what he thinks is a Devil, but is, in fact, Zarus.
Thinking of having him be this Greater God's bitch and wipe out lairs upon lairs of lesser humanoids, all somehow weakening the elves, only to have him finally get his revenge - then be stripped of all he holds dear, turned into a mere human, left to wander the realm trying to undo the evil he...

If we're going by that then 3e will be oldschool about 2019 or 2020.
Oath of the Gatewatch leak. 2/3 for 2 with Deathtouch seems a bit pushed for Standard, even if it's Legendary and two colors. Possible new Abzan.dek inclusion?

I've talked to you guys a little bit about this already, and gotten some great ideas & suggestions.
Here's where I'm at right now.
I'm looking for feedback, as well as any cool ideas or suggestions people might have for me.
Lorsfyr, the City Plane

As you can imagine, the main sources of inspiration are Sigil and Ravnica, but I'm trying to do my own thing with it as well.
I'm also looking to include some elements of Shadowrun, though those are less obvious.
>>43937446
Here's my (Original) diagram of the plane, for those who didn't open the document or view the last thread.

Here, I'll dump the text so you can see it here without links. The link has formatting and stuff though:
>Lorsfyr, The City-Plane
Lorsfyr is a spherical demiplane, with the city facing inward, and an artificial sun floating in the middle of the city, providing constant bluish white light to its denizens. The people of the city have artificial sleeping scheduled, and homes commonly have windows which can be closed off to completely block out the light so they can sleep.

What is the maximum amount of players a GM should ever try to handle in one session?
5
>>43937194
4-6 is the sweet spot.
6 at absolute maximum. Anything beyond that, and you'll be wrangling cats.
N-1.
This is Boruto Quest, a quest set in the universe of Naruto. It is during the generation of Naruto's son, shortly after everyone has graduated from their Genin exam. I haven't kept up with the series beyond the end of the original one, so this one is intended to recapture the feel of that time of Naruto. I will not be incorporating the main show or the Boruto movie's plot into the quest, although some recognizable characters will be present. You play as a 12 year old Genin graduate named Takeshi. You have been assigned a Jounin squad leader named Hanto, and your...

You grin widely. "Good luck!"
He looks surprised for a brief moment, before smiling gently and responding. "Oh, uh, you too. Hey, by the way, I wanted to make a deal with you."
What sort of deal could Roku possibly want to make with you? You hardly know him. You shrug. "Well, maybe. What is it?"
He nudges his head towards your side of the stands. "That girl on your team, Ai? She's awesome! Do you think you could get me her number, or her address or something? Or like, introduce us?? How about this! If I beat you,...

Out of the forest before your party wanders this fellow. In an oddly distorted and accentuated voice this metal guy is saying "ERROR" save for when he looks at you guys directly then says "Good Afternoon fellow employee! Have a nice working day" and waves his stumpy army and keeps wondering by.
SMITE!
AND!
CLEAVE!
Approach him and ask where he got that cool looking armor.
>suddenly crossover campaign with DM's favourite vidya
I gather my things and leave the table forever.
Money, banking, trade, taxation, business generally; this stuff is important, has it ever affected any of your campaigns? Do you have any ideas for how it could?
I'm looking for anything here: get rich quick schemes, government policies, scams, how magic messes with all this stuff.
Opening question: you're about to go on an adventure, if you come back, you'll have more gold than the rest of your Shire combined. What should you do?

>Opening question: you're about to go on an adventure, if you come back, you'll have more gold than the rest of your Shire combined. What should you do?
Well, the price of gold is going to crash, so try to buy a range of other valuable things when you get back, before everyone else catches on?
Better: agree to some contracts for when you get back. Forwards if they're dumb, call options if they're not.
I remember in one game that ran for a fairly long time, one of the players basically founded a Corporation in the fantasy setting, and slowly monopolized and corned markets one by one. By the time she founded the first department store, there wasn't a place you could go where people hadn't heard of "Farhadi's". Her backstory was that she made her break selling fineries to noblewomen in her homeland, since as a woman she was allowed into harems to sell. In game it was kind of cool since she used adventuring/travel to gain an understanding of the economics...

I'm yearning to run/play a Yu Gi Oh RPG or any other game that can replacate the retarded idea of solving conflicts with children's card games.
Does anyone know about a system that I can use for this?
Does anyone has any experience running such a thing?
pls
There's a Japanese RPG called Card Ranker that's exactly what you're asking for. Unfortunately, it's untranslated.
>>43937065

how big is too big?
>>43936117
That is too big, if you actually want to use it for anything but decorationwhich I totally would
It depends on the size of your hands imo. It's also not really a problem I've ever even thought about.
>>43936117
Question. Could we conceivably carve a moon, then crash it into it's planet to "roll" the moon?
Because I think that's too big. But awesome.
>>43936117
It depends. Do you have huge meaty fleshmitts like myself?
Or are you a manlet with babby-hands?
/bgg/- Immortal edition AKA pls don't die
Did anybody get any good deals on cyber Monday? I got 7 Wonders and Takenoko for about $22 each.
I also am still working on a storage solution for Arkham Horror, foamcore is life
What is everyone's least favorite game?
>Forbidden Island game results as of 5 minutes ago
I went with 2 players for my solo run and randomized the characters to play- all on Normal difficulty.
I kept the hands separated by characters as to not give myself a handicap.
I almost got my ass kicked though, I got some of those water rising cards way too early on in the game.
I was ONE turn away from losing.
Had I not been able to go across with Diver and helicopter away on the turn I won, the flooding would have eaten up the heli pad and I would have lost.
>>43936106
Awh, fuck you man. I'm still punching myself for looking at those prices multiple times and still not buying them.
>least favorite game
If we narrow that down to games I have played since I've started playing and collecting board games, then I would have to say Gloom Second Edition.
Not because I dislike it, but because I own tons of games and very few of them make it on the table and this game actively challenges my brain to craft whimsical and morbid stories for the games' progression. Not that I don't love black comedy, it's just hard for me to bullshit a funny story on the fly.
>>43936365
I feel the exact same way about Gloom
>>43936668
There's a conspiracy in my group to always make the twins story as incestuous as possible.
Freaking mormons, man.
How do you like your naga /tg/?
It's going to be a lot of work pushing all the air, water and food that body need through a human sized neck.
>>43936096
Lightly seared, in slices. Something Mediterranean to accompany it I think.
>>43936096
Without human genitalia. When you replace an animals head with a persons torso you get stuff like naga and centaurs, but there are annoying inconsistencies between the two nearly identical concepts.
So /tg/, what are you

And whats the meta at your LGS like?

My LGS has a Tiny Leaders scene so I'm building Kemba voltron deck. Kemba best 3 mana waifu.
>Playing
BU Aristocrats, pure fun.
We have a pretty small and casual LGS, we have 2 Jeskai players and 2 Abzan players. Everyone else is unique and we get ~12 players at FNM so it's pretty fun. Last FNM was won by Hardened Scales player.
Thinking about building R/B Eldrazi Aggro after Khans rotates. I know that's in the future and we still have to see that Oath gives us, but it looks very solid without using any Khans cards outside of fetches.

You are Solomon, a Ceph: a former member of the Alliance, and an independent ship captain. With your crew in tow, you plumb the farthest depths of the galaxy in search of gainful employment…
Last time on Heritage Ship Quest, the crew of the Hot Needle of Inquiry finally arrived at the far-flung Kerls system. There, they made contact with Deg’s contact, a Cetacean mining administrator named Winston, who gave...

Kerls 3 grows in the viewport, the Hot Needle’s descent undisturbed by any atmosphere. Deg adjusts his course a little as the ship levels out, flying a few hundred meters above the surface.
“Three minutes out cap, ‘ccording to Winston’s coordinates,” says Deg as he fiddles with a few switches, “”Man alive, he wasn’t lying about those energy readings!”
Feet clang on the ground as you haul yourself up, eyes focusing on the computer. You start at the numbers running across the screen. There’s no way that can be right, you think incredulously, that’s...
