Isn't it literally a sentient suit of armor now?
Hello everyone, and sorry for the return to delays- My schedule is settling into something a little less sporadic, so hopefully I can go back to making these threads 3 and 4 times a week, instead of once or twice a month!
So, without further babbling about my personal life, let's get into an AAJ thread! There's been a lot of neat spoilers for the Commander 2015 set (including one from my own Rules Blog)- I'm happy to take a crack at any questions you have about these new cards, but any "spoiler" questions get an answer with a big-ass asterisk...

COMMAND BEACON IS PRETTY MUCH THE BEST SPOILED CARD YET.
It's beautifully designed and fills a really important cap in design space.
>>43455140
It also lets me actually build the Haakon deck I've wanted to build since about ten seconds after I learned what Commander is. I even already have a foil Haakon!

how do you plan to reliably get him out? Tutors out the butthole?
>What is Exalted?
An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.
Start here: http://theonyxpath.com/category/worlds/exalted/
>That sounds cool, how can I get into it?
Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial: http://jyenicolson.net/exalted/. It'll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

So, I noticed that Invoking the Chimera's Coils from Dreaming Pearl Courtesan Style still has the Celestial Keyword, despite it no longer being mentioned as a MA keyword, and the actual Terrestrial tag actually gives the charm a BUFF that it normally doesn't have. I'm thinking that was supposed to be a Mastery effect?
>>43455008
That's what it looks like, and of the formatting problems that one is minor, there are other charms in Martial Arts that have tags with no rules text as well.
Reminder that Rich, Holden, and Morke are liars.
Well /tg/ I may have dun goofed. I pissed off a lich. not against the party, just me. Didn't even do anything. I'll go into more detail if anyone wants to hear, but long story short I want to find a way to reverse lichdom.
You must've done something. Liches don't just get pissed off at you for no reason. What'd you do?
The short version is that I was so shiny that when I saved his son from being munched on by ghouls in a dungeon he decided to become a cleric. Both his parents pinged as evil, gave me the eye and proceeded to sic Golems on me later during the campaign. He then created a small undead haven with an undead warlord to get my attention, at which point we found out he went full on lich.
Now he's challenged me. :-:
What do you think of Savage Worlds? What's your favorite setting for it? Have you ever played it?
>>43454234
Good, solid, reasonably simple system with a pulp focus.
Lowlife. http://www.amazon.com/Low-Life-Savage-Worlds-S2P10007/dp/0976360152
I love Savage Worlds
Good balance between rules and sense, fun system and the sci fi companion is probably one of my favorite books I have bought.
Played a couple games with it and both were really well received by my group. One sci-fi horror one-shot and then a classic D&D style fantasy game for 8 or so sessions.
>>43454234
Love it, thinking about running a game in it when I get the group together.
Ran a agent of oblivion game in it once, had fun.
Is it just me, or is the easiest and fastest way for an evil god to create more evil thus: Produce a kind, friendly, and genuinely good race that, when murdered, give boons to the crops and people of the one murdering them.
Just by existing they're asking goodie-two-shoes everywhere whether or not it's worth it to murder someone in exchange for feeding the starving presents. And they're self reproducing for until such time as the world becomes evil enough to kill them all.
Long story short, best way for evil gods to make guys do evil shit is...

That seems like it would backfire spectacularly.
>>43454237
backfiring spectacularly is like, the primary job of gods.
Right after progressing the plot.
This makes no sense. If you're capable of producing a race of your own evil god power, why would you go through all these hoops of making them kind and good and then give boons to people that murder them so they become your evil servants?
Just... make an evil race. This way you don't owe any niggas boons at all.
Have you ever played/played/ran a game with a child adventurer? Like <13 or an equivalent?
I give this thread 5 posts before it turns into loli shit.

You realize you've just jinxed the thread right.

Tell me /tg/, where do you guys draw the line for what's too edgy for your games?
Neat anime pictures thread!
>>43454207
>That is the edgiest fucking character you've ever seen
Oh sweet summer child, you know not of the cold of Winter.
I play between Rated PG-13 and Rated R games.
That goes for both violence and sexual themes.
Kill a guy? Sure. Seduce a barmaid? Fade to black.
Rape a woman and cut off her head while you're fucking her into order to induce death spasms to make you cum?
Nah.

Avacyn actually started as a male angel.
So how does this work? I can just field whatever?Do I need round bases now?
>>43453621
Field whatever your opponent will agree to play against.
Yeah you need round bases now.
Enjoy your shit.
>>43453621
You don't need round bases. In fact, the bases don't even matter at all as it's model to model contact, so you're encouraged to make your own if you want.
Yes you can field whatever, be weary of the "Sudden Death" rule however, as it will punish you for bringing unreasonable numbers.
>>43453621
>So how does this work?
Get some minis, get a total bro to play with, and have fun.
I can just field whatever?
Yes.
Do I need round bases now?
No.
DMs, GMs, and opinionated players,
It's no secret /tg/ has some strong opinions about fantasy races.
So, what is your favorite race in fantasy settings, and how are they best depicted and implemented into a world's lore? Provide a description of your preferred personal interpretation of your favorite race.
Alternatively: How would your LEAST Favorite race be better implemented and depicted in a fantasy setting?
I need opinions on some species:
Daomu Zhe (Chinese for Ghoul/Harmful Spirit) are the most common of the human offshoots. From birth they begin developing scar tissue on the top of their skin, which builds up over time. The top of which calcifies into numerous hard plates covering the body. They can't sit still for too long because the plates will begin to grow together, this will happen if a Daomu is bed ridden. They also shed hair, teeth, and nails constantly, and are normally nearly bald except for hair coming out of their oversized ears (one of the few things...

Mifeng (Chinese for Honey Bee), which are what would occur if you made humans aquatic. large and blubbery like a manatee, grey skinned with many folds. Nearly no nose, and instead prehensile nostrils they can open and close. Large eyes with black irises, making them sun sensitive, and a second set of eyelids to close over them when underwater. No ears, just holes in the side of their head which are also closeable. On their arms are large fleshy flaps that are fairly rigid and used for movement in the water, and their...

Seem kind of weird, but there's decent variety there. Are those for some sort of sci-fi game?
Is there any reason to send ships with crews instead of just really big robots to explore space?
>>43453500
Because it makes for a better story?
>>43453500
Because robots are gay.
because as human being is better at creative problem solving and creative thinking than any machine? Also because frankly thats no fucking fun.

We don't like traps.
Go look at the creation costs and time.
Go look at how useless they can be
Go look at the fucking reflex saves everyone and his paralyzed mother can fucking make.
Traps fucking suck.

I must be the happiest of sneks. The smuggest, too, if that's possible.
