Just obfuscate enough details so that your players won't be able to notice any similarities

So how do I post nods specific to the setting?
How do I discuss minutia of npc motivations?
How do I debate game details, mechanical choices? Possible plot developments? Anything?

Hey, I remember when you posted this last summer.

That's actually a pretty neat idea. You'd probably need specialized equipment, though, considering most of the regular stuff is made out of paper or cardboard.

How would you go about it, /tg/?

It'd be a good way to play Forbidden Island.

Doom, gloom, and some booms.

After the battle of Fornost, likely not much. But I'd guess that even after that there were a fair number of unpleasant things hanging around.

As >>47440726 says.

Standard Castle Darkbad stuff.

My main problem is how to exactly handle non-combat challenges.

I want to use a character sheet that will look as similar as possible to oWoD sheets for easier recognition. It will probably have a bunch of skills on it, like "Occult", "Investigate", "Academics", "Computers" and so on.

These are my ideas:

#1: Skills are ranked 0-3. When a player goes up against a static challenge ("I want to hack this computer"), the GM will set a fixed skill requirement. ("To hack this computer you need the skill Computers...

Hungarian larpfag, if you're out there we need you.

Shoulda have put "Warhammer 40k" or "That Guy" in the title.

In terms of actually gaming, I had a great time playing Guard. So many dice to roll.....

>>47440163
Just bouncing off your thread how the fuck do Guard work? I see that an infantry platoon is 2 squads and then a platoon command unit, but can squad A, and Squad B operate basically entirely separate from each other, no need to maintain distance etc.? I assume that the platoon system is so guard can get a shitload of infantry on the table without going over the CAD.

But I've also noticed you can add heavy weapon squads and special weapons squads, but if you killed one of those auxiliary squads for example does it count as first blood, or does the whole platoon need to be wiped out? and do these auxiliary squads also work as independent units that can run around and do their own things?

Also how does it work when you bring Chimeras into the mix? Should you get one for each squad and then have the platoon command slog it on foot or should you get a Chimera for them as well?

>Hi you guys, Im new to this board but can I get some advice about D&D 3.5
Play 5e instead. That's all the advice you'll ever need.

The fuck are you doing? Try to buy off your LA and take the Unseen Seer PrC to recoup from that. If you can't do either of those, you're probably fucked.

Step 1; Find a group of players, talk to them, if you like them, join them and they'll help you with all that shit.

asking staff at a GW store is a good way to get into it, generally there are people there playing/paining that you can also ask

the GW staff do exist to pressure you into buying codexes and rule books and shit though, so just be mindful of that until you knwo that you want to commit to the game

There is no "new edition" Fantasy has been killed off, and then replaced with a shitty skirmish game with that overtly takes inspiration from 40k.

Depending on how hard you want to fuck them in the first place?

Read Redliners by David Drake.

Or have them discover that some native species or other is sapient, and then throw bureaucracy and aliens rights activists at them.

Or, you know, give people the information they need to make educated suggestions? Are they part of a corp? A government? How much infrastructure and population are they getting to start with? What's the tech level like?

Y'know, I was never a big X-Files fan, but one thing that always stuck with me was an Indian story from the Southwest about a crashed UFO, and how no animals would touch the alien corpse. Even years later, it didn't rot (I think) because no Earth decomposers would touch it.

More recently I saw/read something where an astronaut died on an alien world, and something big tried to eat the corpse, but...

I ran gurps 4e; Ghostbusters Tokyo
Shit was fun

>>47438439

I actually hadn't heard of this until now, but I totally want to run some kind of Ghostbusters themed game with now. With all the anti-hype around the shitty reboot, it feels like the perfect time for it. Make our own Ghostbusters 3 and shit.

Thanks.

>>47438439
It's surprisingly well thought-out for being a cash grab. The rules are dated, but some of the concepts are ahead of its time.

>>47438820
It's weird how people are getting so worked up over the reboot. If you don't like it, just don't pay to watch it, problem solved.

>>47437430
Ah, the classic "I want to run a mecha game" problem.

The number of games with both good Dogfighting and good Mecha combat rules are rather low unfortunately.

If it was just mechs I'd recommend D&D 4e but the heavy plane focus changes that.

>>47437838
I knew the 4e meme would show up eventually, but I didn't think it would be this fast.
