So, yesterday night we had our weekly game. The GM is taking a bit from a Berserk arc, and we have to save a secluded mountain village from a horde of ghouls, however said ghouls were created by a special ritual and cannot be harmed by normal weapons. So, the GM has us explore the forest and find a witch, and she gift each one of us a special magic weapon. Like I said, it was heavily based off Berserk.
And everyone is having fun, until the witch gives our pally her weapon, which is described as a "foreign blade", with a blade "tinted red,slender and curved, and impossibly sharp" and almost as tall as she is. Then the weapon is further described as having a black, laquered wood scabbard, a round guard and a handle wrapped in silk cord and shark skin.
Then another of the players (rogue) goes like "c'mon, a fucking katana?" The GM asks him to keep the meta quiet until the scene is finished, but the rogue player keeps interrupting about how he hopes she (the pally player) gets the proper penalties, then says he hopes the game won't become a "weaboo circklejerk" and just refuses to shut up, even after the pally player says she really likes the idea.
>tfw the game gets derailed to fuck over such dumb shit and both the GM and the Rogue player get pissed off at each other, and both called each other "neckbeard".
>muh western knight can't be taited by inferior katana
Typical westaboo shit

What penalties? Kick that rogue faggot for thinking one sharpened piece of steel is somehow worse than another

You are Second Lieutenant Samuel Fischer of the USMC, and you are following one of the basic precepts of modern combat: hunger waits for nobody. The walk to the mess is relatively uneventful, aside from having to toss salutes in the direction of a couple of RAF pilots, and surprisingly enough that Danish pilot you saw running from Helga’s room. Both of you quickly break eye-contact and pointedly ignore each other as soon as possible. No need to dredge up anything about the utter clusterfuck that was this morning. The smell of eggs and steak greets your nostrils; a sign of just how busy Tea Drinking Station was going to be in the coming months.
Grabbing a tray and getting a healthy serving of breakfast, you maneuver through the packed mess hall towards the table you usually occupy with your fellow squadron pilots. Malinowski and Foss are already there, with your RIO chattering a mile a minute and making odd hand gestures that you assumed had something to do with the hot and blue falcon worthy sex he’d had last night. Some people had all the fucking luck. Barging into the seat next to Malinowski, you listen in as you grab the pepper to liberally smother your otherwise tasteless eggs in.
“Then she grabbed the bed post and -” Foss makes a motion with his hands that seems to indicate something that’s pretty much physically impossible if you have a spine. “Seriously, I thought I’d die and then she uh”
You kick his shins under the table to get him to shut the fuck up instead of prattling on about his sex life. As he winced, you turned over to Malinowski. “So, how was your morning?”
>>47492627
The middle aged Pole shrugged. “Normal, aside from the scuffle with the captain.”
You nodded, sipping your piping hot coffee. “I guess that was my fault. I didn’t really think she’d snap like that.”
“When she-hulk groping you, no time for calm.” Malinowski raised his eyebrow in your direction. “Why her?”
You shrug. “Anje thought that she was the best choice. Helga and Foss might just find common ground though, should introduce them.”
“Introduce me to who?” Foss interjects.
[ ] Nah, that’s too cruel even for Foss.

Previous thread >>47467121
Throwing weapons are ranged weapons.
>>47483482
>being so buttblasted you drag your wrongness into the OP of the next thread
Mike Mearls' rulings don't mean shit and are usually explicitly wrong.
>>47483510
>>47483482
On top of that, this was also covered in the Sage Advice Compendium.
>>47483510
He does have a point though. It doesn't really break anything to let people use all this ranged support for thrown weapons when they could just as easily get a bow.
At best there might be some odd loophole or bonus with it counting as both a melee and ranged weapons, but that seems doubtful.
What would you say if GW separated oldcrons and newcrons into two armies with their own codices?
>>47483459
I'd say that's retarded. They could just fluff it out a bit and say both type still exist in their own capacity.
Though, I could see GW doing that because they sell so well. Try to milk more money out of people. Dark Necrons and Regular Necrons.
You can still have the oldcrons with new codex. Maynarkh Dynasty from forge world, for example. NEWCRONS ARE YOUR DUDES, FLUFF THEM HOWEVER THE FUCK YOU WANT
>>47483524
You can't though. Even if you make your Necrons oldcrons, and there is not a single example of them as such in 40k anymore mind you, the C'tan are still sharded.
And the atmosphere of unstoppable killing machines is lost when 90% of people think of Trazyn and his wacky antics due to stupid /tg/ maymays anyway.
How has fantasy changed in your opinion over the years? Do you like the direction it's gone?
It's diverged into so many different paths that you can easily find something that appeals to you, no matter how insanely specific it is.
Fantasy hasn't changed enough. It's stagnated.
Some elves, some dwarves, some orcs.
And all bland Western fantasy too. How about going even just a TINY bit further east? Historical Constantinope/Byzantium was radical. And that's before even touching cool shit like the golden age of Islam.
I hate that in the recently released 'Dark Eras' for Chronicles of Darkness, we could have gotten 'Book of Judges' Hunter. Monster slaying in the ancient Middle-East?
but lolnope people voted for Japan instead.
>>47483314
The "golden age" of islam is incredibly overblown. Do you even know what elements of these cultures you would want to adopt into fantasy?
>we'll never get a cycle of these
>>47482037
way too fucking broken
wizards never knows what the fuck they're doing
>>47482380
It's not that broken. It requires getting it into your graveyard for any sort of benefit.
>>47482474
But in standard, this card would destroy the meta.

>Question
Where and when is your most recent game set?
So what kind of antagonistic groups have you guys MADE for you games?
>>47460212
I don't get the gay werewolf obsession, but man, I want a gay werewolf body. The gym is not paying off for my chubby white ass fast enough.
>>47460357
Have you tried getting spooked hard enough by gay werewolves to achieve this?
Random question, but would species/gender dysphoria exist in a setting where it is possible to fully polymorph into just about anything?
We have a "that guy" in our group who brought it up and it had us thinking.
>>47485410
Sure. Maybe even more so. Polymorph into something else so you don't have to be you, never turn back again. Or, because you can polymorph, become addicted to it, because you can always change this little thing and perfect isn't real. Like someone addicted to plastic surgery
Gender dysphoria didn't exist until it was published in the DSM-5 three odd years ago. Not that they aren't useful designations but it's a nuanced sense in which they 'exist'.
>>47485410
OK, "species dysphoria" could be pretty funny in the right campaign.

There is a 10 minute voting period after each post. Non-contradictory votes will be combined as best as possible.
Write-ins for all votes are always welcome and encouraged. They may not all make it into the post or be altered to fit in, but I'll do my best to at least try to address the spirit of the write-in.
Very important or contentious votes may be redone in a stricter voting system as it comes up.
Combat involves rolls! Once there's a clear vote winner, we roll for the move accuracy/crit/secondary effect. Usually it's just three 1d100s. Sometimes you can get a modifier from circumstances, so be creative! Add flair, do tricks with moves, mess with terrain, whatever! This is not a video game.

Shinobi Quest #6
This quest takes place within the lands of the Five Great Shinobi Nations (aka Narutoverse) starting roughly around the beginning of the original series. The world of this quest remains similar to the original, with slight but notable differences in certain areas, based upon the passage of time from a single slightly altered event.
(It’s a goddamn Naruto Quest, you bastards. Have fun, participate, and write in when you feel inclined. Most of the outcomes of this quest will be determined by you, the players. Critiques and questions are always welcome, as my knowledge of the weeby shit is not all encompassing.)

Last thread, Tsuki Norihime finished training under Danzo to learn the basics of the Shadow Clone Technique- although she still has much to learn. After testing how long she could last, her stamina increased as a result of her training. After finishing her training, she opted to visit Hinata Hyuuga; she two girls took this time to head to the local spa and bath for relaxation after a tough day of training.
We rejoin her at breakfast, the following morning.
Father, Maru, Danzo and yourself sit at the long table, enjoying a bit of breakfast before you head out to meet your team. Today is a mission day; your first with Nori, Hinata, and Ebisu-sensei.
Although you aren’t expecting much out of it. It has to be some sort of D-ranked mission- they aren’t example the best tests of your abilities.
“Are you worried about your mission today, Tsuki?” your father asks, his voice pulling you back into reality.

Haaa, this place is far too classy for a girl like me, also the old timer wasn't lying, there isn't any coffee in this place. Lots of fancy looking knick nacks and other extravegances, sure...but no coffee. It's far too cold as well, which isn't helping me stay awake, in fact it's almost making me pass into my nightmares, if I still wasn't so burning mad over what just happened.
I groan, and sit up a little straighter in the white and gold couch the much more politer old folks let me rest in. Ochamu stares at me from the side, looking a little shooken up and scared as she rubs the bandage over her hand, as Ajax sits on her lap without trying to rip her legs to ribbons for once.
"You okay Adela?" She asks meekly
"No "I yawn tiredly "Don't have any coffee, how can I be fine without the one thing that keeps me awake"
"No I mean" she says quietly, glancing around at all of the well dressed men and women around us, who are gossiping like a bunch of hens...like they don't even care about the fact they were just prisoners of some pirates "You're pretty scary when you're angry and I was just...worried you were self conscious about it is all"
She's lying
"I'm always scary" I say smiling, making her smirk slightly before she goes back to frowning "Pete just made me a bit scarier is all"
"Yeah" Yotshi says as he walks into the room, cleaning his hands "Pretty sure he won't do that again, if he's smart"
"Which he's not" I say flatly, trying to make ochamu laugh or giggle in the very least "Where's jack anyways"
"Pretending to be you, messing with pete" he says calmly as he sits next to me "hey, don't look at me like that, I tried to stop him but"
"Let me guess, his devil fruit scared you off?" Ochamu groans, shaking her head around, her messy mop of hair following it
cont
>>47492087
"Okay, to be honest adela, I'm more worried about how you...with the rope"
"That I hung him for a few seconds?" I ask glancing at her, making her yelp and hide her face behind her slightly too large hands "Well he hurt you, and I don't like seeing my friends hurt, especially by scum like him"
"And you let jack do whatever he wants to me" Yotshi grumbles
"Well, you bring that down on yourself, lets be honest here" I say shaking my head "You know he doesn't like being teased"
"I can't help myself" He whimpers "my mouth just moves on its own"
"Oh" Ochamu says, her face as red as a cherry "Still it wasn't pleasant to watch...if you have to do it again, can you at least warn me first"
"Sure thing Ochamuuuu" I Say softly, as Ajax licks the big girls face as she smiles "Now if only I find some coffee around here"
"Oh you don't need any of that" the old geezer's fat wife says, pinching my cheek "You just need some of my pie, I'll go get you some, can't fight evil on an empty stomach now can you"
"Mrs Guttibul" I groan, trying to get her hand off of my face, but she doesn't let go when I try to brush it off, so I just pinch her cheek to try and get her to let go "I've told you, an empty stomach keeps me awake"
"oooh, you're just being grumpy" She says, finally letting go of my cheek.
I need to get away from these people.
What do I do?
