You rise slowly early in the day, heading in to your kids' room to check on them both. To your surprise you notice Peppa attempting to climb out of her crib... with Groucho's help. You cross your arms and shake your head. "Isn't it a bit early for either of you to be making any trouble?"
The girl and the tiger shyly nod. Peppa points to the other side of the room, her brother's hat fallen to the floor. "Haf..."

I'm working on being Marshal for a Deadlands Classic game soon and I'm looking for any music and art you guys could sling at me. Characters, locations, period clothing, anything and everything.
If you guys have stories from Deadlands, Dogs in the Vineyard, Boothill, or any other western RPG feel free to share, I'm kind of at sea of where to focus on in my game.

Lets start with some American gospel/folk music. Not gonna lie, most of this I probably stole from O Brother Where Art Thou

Stat who, there's no one there.

Confirmation that /tg/ is absolute shit today.
>The year is 2207

Assuming this card game is still popular on all three worlds, could they still play against each other?
Eventually. Initially, you'd have variance in ruleset as well as various card lists which might not be considered balanced by one anothers rules, but assuming the core principles of the game remained you could recreate a 'standard' ruleset, while also maintaining planetary variant rules.
>>43624140
>you could recreate a 'standard' ruleset
No need to create new rules.
Just use the Earth rule-set. It has retained its purity.
>>43624211
That's a very terra-centric worldview. The Colonials might have some disagreements there.
Is there anyway to make a game where the party is a tank crew mechanically fun in combat?
>>43624040
Possibly, if the system made it obvious that every member of the crew contribute to how well the tank operates. Overall gunner's the half of it. He'd get bonuses based upon how well the commander is at spotting and giving out commands, then pluses or minuses based upon what the driver is doing. Can't fire unless the loader does his job, loader would probably have the worse of it. Other crew members vary depending upon the tank.
>>43625146
It would he difficult to give every class something to do that's both relevant to running the tank and gives them meaningful decisions every turn, wouldn't it? If the loader's only action every turn is "load cannon" while the gunner chooses targets, the loader isn't really getting to do shit.
I've often pondered this, constructing a system around the idea of every player being a member of a crew of something, whether it's a Power Rangers style mecha, a starship or a tank. I think it could work, but it'd require a huge amount of good design to make it really fun.
Roll call.

[Realm of Zagrom]
Color: Yellow

Stage 105: Another Point of View Entirely.
You sit on the grass, looking at the trees, watching the leaves stir. By and large the world is colorless here, except for a very few of the very oldest trees here, and of course the sky himself. Shades of grey, tints of grey, with the occasional lustrous brown and deep green. Even the earth here is washed out, only slightly tinted brown because it is earth. It had to be brought here from somewhere else, so it is dulled, grey and soft and fragile.
You look up at Amaterasu-Omikami, and she smiles down at you, her light...

You blink your eyes at the sleek black dragon with its sapphire arm, ruby right talons, and burning eyes given power by the Sun herself. Your tail curls over itself and you look into those gentle, fierce, burning eyes without fear, because your master will never hurt you the way your family did.
Your name is Ryuu Yui, and this is what you see.

Mmm, intensity, dominant. Keeping up the heat there...

Hey guys, let me know when you are here!

After checking on the mess the girls did, we just... we just went to bed. Yeah, lets just go to sleep and forget about the honey handprints on the floor, the honey footprints on the roof, the feathers sticking to the honey everywhere, and the pile of girls cuddling as they sleep with honey dripping from their lips. Where did they get so much honey from, anyway!?
No,no, let's just go to bed. We'll deal with it in the morning.
Hehe

My players are a cyberpunk hit squad for the totalitarian empire ruling the last cybercities on a mostly nuked earth.
They fight terrorists and win a lot.
They ran into some guys who call themselves HYDRA. One sleeper agent got in their squad as a medic, and then "betrayed them" partway through a mission by blowing himself up with hidden nanoexplosives. Lots of fearful reactions, as the guy passed all screenings and didn't reveal he was a secret agent (good at his job).
Some other minor run ins aside,...

I've been playing this network for the past 42 minutes and now I fucking hate Go with a passion. This was my first time playing.

Hello, we will run for about three hours. Next thread will be a Cont. for sure.
You and Anglo spent the rest of the day running away from the thorn. You shared one cram with your friend just in case, you slept with a growling stomach and shivering body.
You woke up from a terrible nightmare. You couldn't remember it in details but the cries in it felt so real. You just shook it off and continued.
The snow had a greenish tint. It wasn't like that yesterday "A radstorm....She is coming." Anglo stared at the perturbed skies. it was snowing...

It's the Human World.
The surroundings in this part of the world are mountainous and dusty. The ground is rocky and somewhat unpleasant to stand on, even indoors. Or, well, whatever remains of these particular 'indoors'.
The roof of the stone building is almost completely gone, having collapsed or been blown off in its entirety. You're not responsible - it was like this when your group arrived.
Even though this house is by no means small, the only reason everybody is able to fit in on a single floor is because the rooms are no longer...

There are three Shinigami present in the building, their black uniforms setting them apart from everybody else. You don't recall their names. None of them are instructors from the academy; they've just been assigned in charge of your group for this exercise.
Two of them are discussing something between themselves, gradually getting louder about it, while one is wandering around the students, chatting with them. The girl's dark hair is tied up in a neat bun and she looks kind of nervous, though...

What's a nice way/program to make good maps for my players? I'd like to treat them to something more than just black doodles on a white grid for once.
i always liked hexographer and dungeonographer.

Could a Kingdom that lives near a desert make strong use of heavy Infantry?
>>43622262
How heavy we talkin senpai?
>>43622262
Does it have access to whatever material they need to equip heavy infantry?
If so, yes.
>>43622262
Kataphaktos were a thing in quite desert countries. More heavy cavalry than heavy infantry but yes. Moors/Arabs/Whatever you want to call them used to wear chainmail. Better to be a little tired than a little dead.
