hello gentlemen!
i'm about to start a personal project about anthropomorphic animals living in a noir theme solving crimes, fixin' troubles and making puns(kind like Sam and Max). But First i decided to drop by and see what you guys think about.
My question is: Should I make a board game like muchkin or a full-fledged RPG?
Animals Noir is a detective game that you may play as Ricky Cheddar, a Danny Glover-like Rat that wears coats and hats; Mcnuggets, hard-boiled cockwith a "shoot first, ask questions later" atittude; Porkchops, a big and fatass...

Have you read Blacksad?
It's a comic that's pretty much noir with anthropomorphic animals.

>I just started building my first vizier, and I'm wondering if it isn't way too strong. I'm going for a debuffer, level 12, 24 INT, Enhanced Capacity (Stare of the Ghaele), Path of the Ruler. I have a +2 Akashic Catalyst. My veils are Stare of the Ghaele, Pestilence Cloak, Cerebral Catastrophe Cinch, Ring of the Abjurer, Aboleth Tentacles, Crown of Inevitable Command, and Cuirass of Confidence.
>My big concern is how high I can get the DC on some of these, especially Stare of the Ghaele. At this level I have 20 essence from class, race, and feats, and the capacity on my Stare is 6, 5 for my other veils. The DC on my Stare is 12 (base) + 8 (essence) + 4 (investment bonus) + 5 (Pestilence Cloak), and Path of the Ruler inflicts a -3 penalty to Will saves against enemies within 30 feet, giving me an effective DC of 32 to stagger enemies with my gaze. Isn't that a bit high?
I need tics and a style for my new D&d character. I always play the weird over the top guy in the party. My new guy is building to be a shadow dancer but doesn't have anything interesting going on yet. Does /tg/ have any fun tics and characters personalities?

A verbal/visual tic is no replacement for an actual personality or pathos.
Op here.
Previously I was a wizard who communed with the gods of rock and had a few of them for head mates. And a Hercules style brawler who carried around a kitten the way a pirate carries a parrot. A Kung fu master who eventually died in a bar fight, among a few other guys

Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony, but everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. The world slowly smoldered as the Air Nomads were eradicated by the Fire Nation, leaving nothing but empty homes in their wake. The Fire Nation has already started a full-scale campaign on the Southern Water Tribe, beginning the cycle of death anew.
Fifty years this war has raged, scorching the forests and destroying lives....

You sit in a chair across from the man who might have been captured if not for your help. He is currently face-first on the table with a mask half hanging off of his head. He has no clue how close he came to being kidnapped, and you think you know why Noppera didn't just run. He was not sent here just to capture Piao, otherwise he would have done it before the party, he was also here to meet with someone. The woman in the doll mask comes to mind, no doubt a member of the Dai-Li Triad.
A house servant brings a pot of hot tea to you and bows deeply but, so as to cultivate your image as being frazzled, you grab the pot directly from her hands. It isn't the least bit painful, you accidentally lit your arms on fire once, but you fake a yelp of pain and let go before picking it up. Obviously holding back laughter, the woman sets the pot on the table and quickly walks away. Across from you, the drunken general lifts his head.
"Hmmm... wha was- oh Dong, what're you doing here?" He grumbles a bit and rubs his face.
"Y-you passed out and the Guard showed up. E-everybody left, but I figured it would be rude to leave without saying goodbye. Tea?" You pour a cup of tea for yourself, a brew favored by the lower class you realize, smelling more of dirt than tea.
"Yeah, thanks for staying Dong. You're a good friend, shame the King didn't show up, would've loved talking to you. Heck, the Queen would love you, you're more... agreeable than most of the nobles." You get that he's implying you are submissive to others, which is very good, exactly what you want people to think. You pour him some of the tea.

"This is hardly the kind of brew I would expect in this house- n-not that I'm saying you have poor taste! But, what's the story if you mind me asking." You are kind of interested in how a man with so little decorum became a general. He laughs a bit, then he seems to sober up.
"Unlike those other generals who started as Captains and the cream like that, I crawled my way through the mud, made a name for myself, fought for every title I earned." He pulls up his shirt revealing a multitude of burn scars."I reached the peak at Commander,...

I rate it terrible. Lack of speed attacker kills it.
If a 6 mana creature doesn't do anything the turn it hits the board then it's garbage.

What about the many support cards for armored dragons? You could conceivably cast it for 3 to 4 mana and any support cards that perish along the way strengthen the overall power rating.
In every fantasy setting, there's always a white washed feudal system where peasants happily work their land while being seemingly literate and educated while overseen by similarly fair lords. If there's an exception to this it becomes the complete opposite where a clearly evil lord is oppressing the completely ignorant and helpless peasants.
In sci fi settings its the same thing but replace the lords with democracy/corporations depending on if its good or bad, and peasants with citizens. Are there any interesting ways to mix up the governments in your games,...

I had a city state in a D&D game with an unusual method of government. Every citizen of the city wore a crystal ring attuned to them, which contribute part of their psychic energy to a unified psychic construct which acted as a benevolent dictator. It knew the minds of all its citizens, understood their wants and needs and always acted to be the best ruler it could, as well as being a terrifyingly powerful psychic entity if the city was attacked. It brought up some interesting questions of free will, privacy and personal freedoms, but my players eventually decided it was...

>In every fantasy setting
You can do what you want in your stories/games, but don't pretend like you're the first one to ever come up with the idea of realpolitik fantasy governments.

As a programming exercise I will be making an action RPG that uses coloured ASCII graphics. I aim to release it by the end of the year.
So /tg/, I welcome you to brainstorm ideas for the plot and setting. Ideally I'd get a writer, but I think that's too much to expect so I am merely asking for vague directions.
I'm interested in all themes so I'm open to anything really, but as a guideline if you want to know my passions, they are sci-fi, murder/thriller/mystery, alternative history, war and politics, exploration in general, and space exploration.

The picture is NOT of the game by the way - it's a screenshot from another game to demonstrate the style of graphics I'm shooting for.
Sure, how about we shoot you some moon-logic puzzles, and you yay or nay them?

I'm fine with proxies. Any playgroup that doesn't let people use proxies is a bad one in my book.
I think that fakes are stupid, and especially paying for them. Trading fakes for real value is reprehensible.
You're suppose to suck dick not be a dick. But what did he trade you? If its a jace the mind sculpture, you are a dick. If it was a origins mountain yeah okay whatever. You need to tell him and give him back his card let him keep your fake. Tell him what's up and maybe make up a small story of why you didn't realize it was a fake right away
