What in the fucking fuck is this shit, Wizards?
You had an easy, simple, and intuitive set of encounter-building rules for 4e.
Why the shit has 5e regressed to THREE PAGES of byzantine rules on encounter-building, with several different kinds of multipliers?
Pic related, it's just page 2 out of 3 of the encounter building rules.
It's not D&D if it ain't confusing as fuck. They're just going back to their roots, OP, you can't fault them for that.

Where is this page from? Didn't notice it in the PHB scan?
>>34095038
It's from the basic rules for the DM.
Testing interest in continuing the Minotaur thread from yesterday. Or not, whatever, Anon's choice.

That's about it. Lets go.

what are we voting for? What was wrong with the other thread?
Is there an archive?
>>34087219
Someone archived it.
I saved it all in a text file. Got that if you want it.

What unreleased card are you looking forward to mostly?
Astrolabe, no question. Having a cheap console in Shaper would be awesome, especially for the Shapers I have the most fun playing.
>>34033884
Oh man, yeah, almost forgot about that. There are a few Shaper builds I have no console on but 3x Mem Chip where it'd be perfect
Considering giving the game a shot, watched the youtube introductions, read up on card lists so I have some vague idea how things work.
My questions are:
1) What should I get first? Will core give me enough variety?
2) Being former M:tG player... is there any reason not to play "Draw 3" (Diesel, Anonymous Tip) in maximum allowed number of copies in each and every deck?
3) Is there anything that could be considered "combo" other than Stimhack + Personal Workshop?
You guys know the deal!

Hey.
Hey /tg/
What class/race combo would work best for an increasingly unstoppable armored juggernaut character in 4e?
Preferably martial, but I'll take whatever.
>>34013914
Revenant / Battlemind
20 Con starting, access to feats from another race of your choice, only getting staggered when you're knocked below zero.
I'm really partial to Minotaur / Warden. It's an appropriate combo, and Wardens are the definition of hella sturdy.
You'd better be dual wielding shields. Add a blade to them if you must.
Shall we begin?
You know the drill, but in case you dont heres a quick tutorial:
Pick a race and/or location from the image, and post them.
First to 3 votes wins (Place and race are counted separately).
After that ill begin writing the story, and you decide the action the CIV should take.
Actions that are dangerous require a d100 roll. Thats done by putting this in you email field: dice+1d100.
Thats that! Lets get started!
Please note that i will be here for the next 3-4 hours.

Well, the Commissar is dead, high command has abandoned us and the damned greenskins will probably overrun us in a few hours so unless we get an Emperor damned miracle we're not making it out of this alive.
You know never thought I'd go like this, always imagined I'd become a general when I was a lad, always wanted to lead my men into battle and slay the Emperors enemies. Believed that I'd be buried a hero. It's the reason I joined the guard against my parents wishes when recruitment officer came around.
Ah what a fool I was, well enough about an old mans regrets. What made you enlist, why did you get yourself dragged across the galaxy? Honor? Glory? Adventure? Why are you here?

My level 17 wizard owns a black hole. She (kinda) saw it one day while looking around, almost fell into it, and planted a big magic flag outside of it, claiming it as hers. I would like your input on what to do with it, /tg/.

You mean a sphere of annihilation?
Or an actual black hole?

I can see your magical realm OP. And i like it
Wizard 1: Alright, so this is what I did. I gave a dog the ability to teleport at will, right?
Wizard 2: Gotcha
Wizard 1: So, of course the fucker escapes. I thought. Well, I will just make another dog of the opposite gender with the same ability and it will come back. Call of the wild and all that jazz.
Wizard 2: Seems logical.
Wizard 1: That bitch skates too.
Wizard 2: Egad
Wizard 1: So now I need something to round up these dogs. What is the enemy of dogs?
Wizard 2: Cats?
Wizard 1: Bingo. Since the dogs can teleport, I decided to give the cat the ability to teleport too. I made two cats, because you know....two dogs, two cats, right?
Wizard 2: Perfect sense.
Wizard 1: Well, the retarded ass cats teleported into each other and now I got this god damned mutant with way too many legs, tentacles for some god damned reason, and two brains giving it semi-psychic abilities.
Wizard 2: My word.
Wizard 1: Lost that thing too, but not before seeing how it had no interest in the dogs in question and the dogs giving not one fuck about it as well. I am sure the cat won't live long though. I mean, it was pretty fucked up.
Wizard 2: What about the dogs?
Wizard 1: So, I noticed the dogs like to chase bugs and I just happen to have a few spiders webbing up the house. Bam, teleporting spiders so the dogs can chase them across all planes and hopefully be distracted enough I can catch them.
Wizard 2: Great idea.
Wizard 1: Those god damned spiders teleported right into my growth potions, now they are the size of ponies and still slipping around. Needless to say, the dogs aren't going anywhere near those fucking things.
Wizard 2: Jesus man. Why were you making teleporting dogs anyway?
Wizard 1: I figure that chicks like dogs, right? So, with dogs going into the other planes of existence when they teleport, I might be able to attract the attention of some extraplanar whores and see how that pussy stacks up to mundane snatch.
Wizard 2: Why not just give yourself the ability to teleport and take a puppy with you when you go into the other planes?
Wizard 1: Girls scare me, man. Leaving my comfort zone too much to go to their neighborhood like that. Besides, I don't know how it would effect my head travelling across dimensions, so the dumb animals get to go with the dry run.
Wizard 2: I understand on all counts.
Wizard 1: Now I got these spiders fucking up my house, these dogs tear assing acrossing the country side taking down wildlife in massive quantities, and that retard cat off doing god knows what, I figure I better make me some muscle to protect me.
Wizard 2: Ok
Wizard 1: Owl bears.
Wizard 2: What?
Wizard 1: Owl bears. I am awake during the day and needed a nocturnal guardian, so I fused an owl for night time sentinel work with bear for the bad ass strength to back up that owl. It work great for a few weeks.
Wizard 2: Then what happened.
Wizard 1: It got pissed that I was eating its eggs for breakfast and lunged at me. I sent it flying with a magical blast. I am sure it is dead off in the wood by now.
Wizard 2: Yeah.
Wizard 1: So that brings us to this fucker. What I wanted to do was combine a dragon with a wasp to really scare the fuck out of everything to keep it away from my home. A giant fire-breathing wasp! Only thing is, I got a small dragon with a stinger and chip on its shoulder instead.
Wizard 2: You are a terrible wizard, man.
Wizard 1: I am starting to see that.
>>33898664
In my game, wizard 1 is named Aleminster, and his catchphrase is "it seemed like a good idea at the time."
Heh, I like this, OP. Thanks for typing it up.
