Was reading this game on 1d4chan
http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Ops_and_Tactics
Seems not awful, I really like the time unit/Combat Point thing , but I'm bad at picking out flaws, so what are it's flaws? Why SHOULDN'T I use this system if I want to try something new?
>For the GURPS posters
I've played gurps pretty extensively. Shit's getting old and boring. Please don't recommend that to me.
Character art with guns cause why not.
>>43567279
Bump with more art.
Cause why not.
>>43567366
Damn, noone has any opinions on this game?
>>43567512
Bump again, I suppose.

Repost from last thread since I think it's an interesting point:

>I've also seen more than once that a bunch of grogs argued that FUMBBL has way too much comfort features built in and that it should become more complicated and archaic.
I've never really seen anyone like that, but one thing I will say about FUMBBL, and videogame BB in general, is that you get lazy compared to playing tabletop.
For example, showing the dicerolls required to dodge/pass etc. actually makes some people not understand the rules as well as someone playing tabletop. I remember one of the old versions of the client just showed red squares for dodges, no 4+ or whatever marked on them.
Not saying BB should be unforgiving to new people, but they should get a gentle nudge to actually read the rules first. Of course Cyanide don't want to put off the EA SPORTS: MADDEN BUT ORCS LMAO types who will spend money on the game, so they give them a couple of tutorials and keep it light, which doesn't help the quality of the player base.

As long as there is a player base, so many other niche games lose theirs. New blood is always welcome as far as I'm concerned.

Reposting from last thread, see if anyone missed it.
Got an interesting spread already, I suspect that we here are fairly in the minority when it comes to teams we've played. Only 1 Chaos so far, no Lizardmen, plenty of Bretonnians (trying them out because they're new?).
So, the Kickstarter for Shinobigami started recently, what are your expectation for this game?
Well I can't offhand recall another game where a character is intended to be played for a single evening, one adventure only. But I can see how it can be used to blast through an entire dramatic arc in one go and likely have bretty good time while at it. They tell next to nothing about the system however, so I'm not quite willing to put any money in.

Andy never releasing any of the reskins he promises
>>43567138
They should have used someone on the kikestart vid who actually know how to narrate. AND has a voice suited to it. Yeah yeah, good VAs cost money.
Have any of you ever played a character with depression or suicidal thoughts without becoming an edgy sue? If so, how did it play out?
>>43567123
Still going on, but unsure how long I can keep doing this.
Just sort of want it all to stop, you know? Not even be good, or better, just, just want it to stop.
>>43567168
Well, I guess if we wanted this to go into deeper more personal territory. This could also be a thread on depression, suicide, and how its effected your games and how your games have effected it.
>>43567123
>>43567199
Oh, OP meant if the *character* had depression.
Haha, no, virtually all of my characters have some sense of self worth and desire to achieve something, or otherwise an ambition to keep going.
Now, someone who is suicidal *can* work, if it's a cultural thing, like the Legion of the Dead in DA or Berserkers from Warhammer.
But overall, your character needs to have a reason to adventure, you know? At the very least another PC has to...
