They have no stats, because the metal can never die.
Chess problems thread. Other board game problems also welcome.
If you post solutions, please do it in spoilers.
kxe1 is key. At that point, the only moves black can make are to shuffle the queen between a1 and a2. March your pawn up to h8, promote to a knight, and then take the pawn on c4, follows by the rook on b3 when the queen is on a1 for mate.
>>47460032That was a pretty easy problem, wasn't it? I started with it for the visual impression, though. The thing that might trip up some solvers is that you have to promote the pawn to a knight.

What a faggy offsite writing style. There's no revelation to be had, this where you bitch about it. That's like saying someone just discovered people can be asshats because they posted a That Guy story.

Then why don't you do something about it instead of bitching about it on mongolian throat singing board?
Are nuns more paladin, cleric or monk in D&D terms?
>>47459467
What do you think?
Classically Cleric, but Paladin or Monk battle-nuns are both awesome in my book.
They are more innocent bystander like, unless you want them not to be.
How much more powerful would a D&D 3.pf Fighter be if he received all fighter feats by default, even if he'd still be behind a druid?
>>47459416
Give him a boost early on and he'd be the best martial combatant in the group. Some of those later-level feats are pretty gnarly.
Once you get into high levels though it won't make much of a difference. He can have every single archery-related feat in the CRB but it'll do jack dick for him if he opts to just use a two handed sword all the time. The best it'll do is give him more options.
>>47459416
All fighter feats as in core ones or just all throughout all supplements?
For the first one still shit. They're mostly +1-4's that apply to different things
For supplements you're kind of an insane killing machine that can't be stopped my illusions or any sort of magical protection
>>47459416
I would instead give them the ability to make feats that have a specific weapon choose (Weapon focus/spec) be generalized to weapons they have prof with. So weapon focus beco n es a blank +1 with a fighter versus only long bow for a ranger.
This way if a weapon is randomly rolled is great, but doesn't match the 5 feats he's already spent it's not a faaaaark situation.
Has there been any development towards a Kill Six Billion Demons homebrew?
I am assuming GURPS but some of the esoteric functions of the setting I imagine would be difficult to fluff out.
Angels and Demons would be strictly relegated to NPCs and not really for hostile encounters unless the party is at higher levels.
I think pcs would be humans as I am finding it hard to see how they could play a monster effectively but that could be my own lack of imagination.
The party would start as a subject of one of the seven Lords in Throne as a plain nobody....

I am trying to figure out how to start them off but all I can come up with is in a bazaar (i.e. taven) or simply being mercenaries hired by a lord to go knock another lord's stuff over.
As for classes I have beggar-monk, gun witch, swordsman, pit fighter, paladin, mystic, berserker, and chanter. I am at different stages of development for each class mostly plagiarizing 3.5e.
There are a few spells and abilities from the comics but haven't made much progress beyond that. I am willing to take from other systems but havent really found anything that fits...

Yech, 3.5 DnD is not an appropriate gateway to adapting the setting
youre much better of fusing something better suited, like GURPS
They're already working on an official RPG, I think using *World, which seems like a better basis than D&D or GURPS, IMO.
It's time to empty out those dice bags, /tg/. Go to your gaming table if you have one, spill the contents of your dice bag, and take a picture. If you don't have a gaming table, the closest flat surface will do. No cleaning up!
Others will rate whatever they see.
Also a general dice thread.
>>47458654
It seems you have all the dice you'd practically need and almost all in good condition.
>>47458782
Probably because most of them are new.
As a sidenote, I should probably get more D6's though for dicepool games like Shadowrun. But we haven't started playing SR yet, so I'm in no rush. Also found out that translucent with white text was the worst purchase ever, they're impossible to read, especially in poor lighting.
Post dice, faggots. I want to see dice.

So I'm running a roll20 gurps game. Dark medieval fantasy, bunch of dark magic rolling around, party is a group of troubleshooter for the army.
Chapter 1 has concluded. The party has headed off the invasion of Gorgoth (the forbidden kingdom), defeating the dark sorcerers who were teleporting in plague infected scouts ahead of the beastmen army. They liberated the ruins of Glardenfen, and the Alliance army if Men, Elves and Dwarves have setup a solid camp there. The fort is being rebuilt, and regular...

They've now been redispatched out to infiltrate the line, and slip down to a ruined tower keep in Gorgoth. There, they should find the Ansible of the Spirits; a mighty artifact the Elves used to cursed the dark kingdom, and end the last war 200 years ago
A few players took the opportunity to fully enlist in the army, receiving a commission and equipment for low officers. Otherwise they're re-equipping and loading up pack horses to make the journey South.
Mostly I'm posting here for feedback...

Doing a Futuristic setting. How many presidents should I say have came and gone into office in 500 years? We've had 45 president so far, soon to be 46, in just 240 years so how many presidents would you say they'll be five hundred years from now? Would making him the 100th president improbable even when taking one term, 2 term, and assassinations into account?

One day Timur was in the mood for teasing Nasreddin Hodja.
- `Hodja,' he asked, `can you teach your donkey how to read?
- `Yes I can Great Timur.'
- `Come now Hodja! How can you teach a donkey to read?'
- `If you give me three years time and 3000 gold coins, then I can teach my donkey how to read.' the Hodja was adamant.

You've had 43.
I have 2 copies of Archangel Avacyn
and 3 copies of Nahiri, the Harbinger.
Is it wierd if I make a W/R deck with both of them in it?
How does that make you feel?
>>47458060
Well sounds like a bombass draft deck but I don't know how legal mythics are in pauper. Also if you're building a midrange deck out of them you might want to try other decks in the archtype, legacy has a lot available to you.
>>47458100
I never said what format it would utilize.
This includes things like total party killed, or games which in any way went horrifically wrong.
I'll start.

With a budget of three hundred gold pieces, how could a balanced and otherwise fully equipped level one party defeat a giant?
>hardmode
No offensive casting.
>>47457097
300 gold pieces per player, or 300 gold total? Also how many party members?
>>47457134
Let's say four members, 300gp total, not including whatever armour/weapons/gear the players would already have at character creation.
It would probably be enough to rent or buy a siege engine and hire experienced engineers to run it, all they need to do then is lure the giant into a choke point and trap him there while they giant gets shot at.
Or you could do it the old fashioned peasants way and buy a favorite meal of the giant, for example a cow, and stuff it with various kinds of toxic and poisonous herbs, liquids and potions and then leave it close to its lair.
