Does this card have Legacy potential?

What do you think?

yeah it's good in miracles.

People have been using it, so yes.
The Hingescape
There are many ways to construct a planet, notably earth-like geoids in space, infinite planes, limited planes within cosmologies, but the Hingescape is a different approach that allows interplanetary travel at varying degrees and connects the universe into a web, not unlike sci-fi warp points.
The Hingescape is so named because of the Hinges of the World, areas with high natural or artificial magical residue/potential. Naturally occurring hinges are present in every planet in extreme natural locations - think Natural Wonders of the World. Hinges...

The ease of travel in between planets is dependent on how dangerous Hinges are. If high danger Hinges will usually only be accessible to potent spellcasters, often travelers across planet that dwell little where they walk. Usually they are on a religious pilgrimage to the center of the universe, where it is believed the God(s) that have created the Hingescape reside. Consequences for not being careful with powerful magic like this would be going insane, or perhaps being ripped into your consecutive bits and cast into space. Low danger hinges allow for migrations of entire communities...

I personally like lower danger Hinges because it allows planets around the campaign setting, or around other planets in general, to serve as 'reserve' planets for great combats. Take, for example, the classical great human kingdom assaulted on all sides by necromancers and undead. They are the last shining light of humanity, and must face this great evil on this own. However now imagine this scenario in the Hingescape, where the human kingdom can draw manpower and supplies from surrounding lands accessible through a Hinge (with low danger). The communities around this...

interesting idea. Having there be various realms of existance with earth (or what have you) being a hub realm is cool. the north pole has a hinge to the elemental plane of ice. Mount Everest to the plane of air. Auschwitz has hinge to the plane of death or something like that.
Instead of having a multitude of threads asking what system would be best for playing in such and such show, videogame, etc... why not just have a general thread where its all centralized?
I'll start, what's the best system for WWI campaigns?
>>47451363
I've always been on the lookout for a system where combat is essentially characters using a list of known techniques, similar to DnD 4e or Strike!. However, as you level up, you can choose to upgrade your combat maneuvers for additional effects or more damage or opt to learn new maneuvers. Something like
Power Attack rank E
Cleave rank C
Feinting Attack rank B
Quick Attack rank A
Super Duper Special Attack rank B
Theme wise it'd be some flavor of fantasy but I'm not picky....

That's an interesting idea, I don't know of any system that really does it, GURPS could replicate something like it, but it would less be a part of choosing upgrading powers or buying new powers, and more just using points to have a solar effect.
for starters, i love the idea of a "What system general" this should become a thing.
Second off, what would you suggest for a game run in pic related? players being infected of course.
Anyone have that greentext series of retarded dragon girls where it's described as a D&D campaign?

Hope this is the right spot to throw this out there. Whatever.
I'm an amateur chess player. My dad taught me how to play, but he didn't have formal training, and I don't have formal training either, but I have the rules. If I had my elo rated though, it would probably be in the double digits. And that's totally for a lack of trying.
I want to learn chess a bit more formally, but chess tutors are making a fucking racket and anyways that's more of a kids things. I've always been good at self-teaching, anyways, so is it possible for one...

Go to ANY used bookstore and ask for their chess section. It might be in with their board games.
There have been THOUSANDS of books written that will do exactly what you want.
>>47450639
I suppose I should have mentioned, I live in a place where I don't speak the language right now. I'm moving but that takes time.
>>47450687
Many of the books will have diagrams. And most used bookstores have books in all kinds of languages. I used to work at one.
Other then that, cheap Amazon books.
Thread starter question: Do you disapprove of item- and damage type-dependent builds like "frostcheese," the "radiant mafia," the Mark of Storm, and the Firewind Blade?
If you are GMing, remember...
1. To strongly consider giving out at least one free "tax feat," like Expertise and pre-errata Melee Training.
2. To use Monster Manual 3/Monster Vault/Monster Vault: Nentir Vale/Dark Sun Creature Catalog math. Avoid or manually update anything with Monster Manual 1 or 2 math.
3. That skill challenges have always been scene-framing devices...

the PCs seem to never really get into trouble
I have yet to drop a PC
>>47452059
Handing out free tax feats is less related to difficulty, and more of a matter of giving the players the feats the system's math expects them to have. These feats are necessary to match up PCs' attack bonuses with monster' defenses, PCs' non-AC defenses with monsters' attack bonuses, and PCs' melee basic attack and damage bonuses with those of Strength-based PCs (because frontliners like battleminds, monks, and swordmages having to spend a feat to have a viable melee basic attack...

I dislike it because damage types are the biggest limit to refluffing, and all those rely on cheesing out elements/vulnerabilities/etc.
You can't just tell your blackguard "sure, replace all necrotic with radiant", cause then suddenly that's a huge buff, because damage...

My recent game has left me with a quandary /tg/ so I thought I'd ask you guys.
What the fuck does a druid buy when he suddenly stumbles upon a stash of hundred of thousands of gold?
Land rights. All the land rights.
Split it with the party.
MAGIC ITEMS! MAGIC ITEMS EVERYWHERE!
A big plot of land, get yourself a commune going.
>>47450171
A whole fuckton of food for his animal companions.
As a cheap skate trying to get into war gaming, I plan on using cheap green army men type things to use as proxies for another war game to get some friends into the medium.
Any idea what game would be easy to play given limited resources? Ideally it'd be more skirmishy than army based, Warmachine and Hordes caught my eye but I don't really know the scene too well.
>>47449733
a couple.
two off the top of my head are A Song of Blades and Heros and it's varients, which just needs 8 reaper minis for both side to play.
Or Angry miniatures, one that only need 3 dude to play for both side, but requires poker dice.
Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack.
Uses Legos.
>>47449733
Me and my friends use W40k rules and army men.
>Hello adventurer. Mind to take us a long in your next adventure?
A long what?
Of course, this is pretty much why I became thrallherd in the first place.
>>47449332
Why? Your party is already full.
Your balance is shit though.
Maybe ask a rogue?
>tabletop game about dinosaurs
>where you play as dinosaurs instead of humans
Why hasn't this been done yet?
>>47449263
I am now imagining land before time table top...
it is a good thought.
>>47449263
Because dinosaurs make good monsters, not so much protagonists. They're big dumb scalie things, the dragon to be slain, not the hero of the story
>>47449263
I mean I guess you could just do like Ironclaw and have anthro/furry dinosaur people. Different species giving different stats, maybe do a "herbivores good, carnivores bad" thing depending on how corny you want it to be.

Are metal bugs allowed ?
How big are newborn baby giants?

How much did that figure cost?
1/8 of adult's size

They can range from the size of horse to the size of the carriage.but really depends on the setting.

¿Is there a good d100 fantasy game?
¿Is anyone obsessed in finding the perfect system to the point you want to create one, just to end playing dnd again?
If I struggle to understand GURPS is there another system that can be adapted or is ideal for modern gaming?
