Not sure if /his/ or /k/...

It's for my mid 1800's game. I don't think either of those boards will be able to answer the follow up gaming questions. Like, would there be a mechanical advantage to players using cap and ball weapons? would they even be cheaper?

It seems to me like powder and ball firearms in this era might end up being trash loot for PCs...

>>47621803
They didn't have mass production back then, you know. Each rifle was hand made. It took about 2 days on average for a rifle to get made. ball and powder was also easily replaceable - you had to either buy really expensive cartridges, or make them yourself, and that was not easy stuff to do.

It took an industrial Revelation for that shit to be made cheap.

The drawing in the OP is Lovecraft's original sketch of the Elder Things by the way

reposting from last thread:
I read some of lovecrafts works and I loved them, I also like this concept about madness letting one see things others normally can't, So I was thinking that for one character I am playing, on a non CoC campaing, he slowly starts going insane, at first hearing whispers he dismisses, then starts being paranoid about a lot of things, things get worse and worse, his dreams are not even nightmares, but a collection of random events, ranging from historical events, everyday situations to cryptic messages and or warnings, easiest way to visualize...

Stop making these threads so often. We don't reply. You would be annoyed too if I made a Tiny Leaders general daily.

This is what happens when WotC doesn't regularly ban cards to force a meta change, the meta evolves on its own. I'm all for banning stupid cards, but to force a meta change? Nah son.

Green is going to be super popular with Mongoose and now Stompy being the confirmed king Delver killer.

What army can take the most power/force weapons?

Bonus points if it's actually viable on the table for that army to do so.

White is controlling. Green thrives on purging the week. Blue will do anything in the pursuit of knowledge. Red can be overly chaotic and impulsive. Black isn't afraid to do anything to win.

>>47646349
Black can also do the "Sacred Darkness" thing and put the living dead back to calmness.

Figure it has something to do with Shintoism. If there are spirits for just about everything, the spirits of the forest and nature would just fall under that same category and role that deals with them

Japan favors Shintoism, which is somewhat animistic, and naturally respects nature and the natural world in that religion.

Their Clerics are already druids, and most examples of ascetics that live in the natural world to draw inspiration and power from it wind up looking like Martial Artists instead of Religious Magicians.

Western druidism was viewed as contrasting to clerics and such because of the association with christianity and the like vs pagan faiths the likes of which were native to Europe...

The reasons for this are actually usually more mechanical then thematic.
"Pet" Druids wouldn't work to well in older JRPG's where party composition and encounter balance was based off a set number of PC's in the party, usually 3 or 4. And since Summoners were usually their own thing in Final Fantasy, that left that role out as well.
Healing and buffing Druids is the other role they could play, but that role is traditionally taken by Priest and White Mage types; the more "nature"...

Most of our forces have been occupied on other fronts and the defence of Eyerdar has fallen to our allies and the local militias. The Spirelords have unleashed new automatons, walkers and a mighty doomship from their main base of operations in the former NPU. Many of the disgruntled citizens of that nation - the first to fall due to its disarmament after the Great War - have willingly submitted to the Spirelords and the strongest among them have joined the ranks of their army as humans clad in armor, leading the machines that are being built.

We've got to lure in the doom ship and seize it!
To do so i propose we lure it on the coast where we will have support from our fleet.
We will use a trjan horse of sort, an inflatable false doomship or so but with a wooden frame.
when the shit will be lure in, we will proceed to fire a nuke above it so that it will disable the shield and lot of electronics due to the EMP as well as giving it downward momuntum and therefore forcing it to crash.
We will then use very competent fighting force to board the doomship and eleminate any resistance while our mechnized infantry deal with the troops they deployed after the crash.

also need an operation name give me your ideas!

Neither.

Give them an easier entry into the hobby with Risus, Everyone Is John, or a D&D Basic retroclone.

Between the two 5E. 5E is also the most newby friendly D&D edition.

They weren't early on, and by the time they started thinking it was already 'defined' so they were screwed. If they decided to give, I dunno, fucking green draw or bounce, people would throw a fit.

First of all it is important to remember that just because /tg/ says that a game sucks does not always mean that /tg/ hates the game. If the people on /tg/ refused to play any of the games that they said sucked, then they would never play an RPG again. As for your question, pathfinder, like a lot of games, becomes grossly unbalanced as soon as some asshole attempts to exploit the system or optimize. As long as you are playing in a good group, it should not be a major problem. Also, there are plenty of other games that are unbalanced like pathfinder, but since pathfinder is the...

Why would you want to do that? Fantasy games are all about being the big hero guys, aren't they? Why would you want to be a dirt farmer?
It's be like running a game of V:tM, but no one gets to be a vampire. They have to be Dave the accountant.

>>47632161
No, they can be heroes. But I'd rather the players had to work to separate themselves from the group, not just be able to easily beat almost every non-magical stock NPC in the MM from level 1. To me, the players should start out marginally above average and become competent and experienced by the end of the campaign, not start out as Spider-Man and end up as God.
