Is Dice Masters only relevant and still living Collectible Dice Game?
I know that you can still buy Dragon Dice but it looks like the DM is the only CDG with new expansions, sets etc.
How is this possible? Why CDGs have so hard times with staying afloat? Dice based board games like Dungeon Roll are usually sought-after and people like them
>>46988368
>Dungeon Roll
neva heard of it
>>46988441
You can find proxe templates on BGG and try it. I'm pretty suprised it has only 6.2 on BGG - most of reviews are positive but it's just one game so it's not a point
>>46988368
There are other collectible dice games?

Haven't these guys ever thought that at some point normal humans may want to use the field for something?

"Excuse me mi'lord but this is an important Agri-world for this sector!"
"We've calculated the risks and found that every world can produce a similar out put by building up their agricultural infrastrtuce which can be done once we've finished construction of our new facilities on this planet."

Yeah, we had exactly that thought. Then we issued every trooper another 5 magazines for their rad-carbine

AND NOTEPAD FUCKS MY FORMATTING UP. god damn it.
>It's another "stories that never happened" episode.
>>46987770
More of a just generally bad story. How true it is didn't really cross my mind since I was mostly just thinking about how shitty this group would be. The only way it would be worse is it he said he was playing a luchador
>It's a "players vote on dice-rolls" play-group

wat
is that a thing?
I don't know what that means
>>46985982
Uh, I was unaware that was a thing.

Shouldn't the GM be determining the world's cosmology and theological structures?
Elaborate
>>46985841
Some GMs allow players to create custom gods, depending on how they fluff their cosmology.
Just a quick question. How are Wizards treated in Warhammer Fantasy. I would have dropped this in the general but there didn't seem to be one.
>>46985766
This pic needs context.
>>46985805
It's a scene from Prequel, a comic about a Khajiit in Elder Scrolls Oblivion. I highly recommend it.
>>46985766
An improperly trained wizard can easily fall to the influence of dark powers, and even a fully accredited and licensed college wizard can gradually acquires magical mutations and can have unpleasant effects on the people around them if they bungle a spell. For this reason, wizards are treated with suspicion and revulsion even though their services are greatly in demand. Having a wizard on retainer is a sign of obscene wealth aspired to by all great nobles, but he's unlikely to be the most liked or trusted member...

What's the most titles one of your PCs has held at the same time?
>>46984950
Do bullshit titles I successfully convince NPCs I have count? Because I played a rogue who specialized in that. And there would've been a lot.
>>46984950
>apple master

>>46984950
I have several tied at first with one.
Notable amongst those are "wizdom of wizardry" and "king"
But, Ops and Tactics Thread!
>What is?
RPG that doesn't have a lot of fluff for you to with it what you will

Kickass Combat system. Kickass Magic/Psionics/invoking-summoning system. Lots of guns. Lots of options.

Because D20 Modern was a shit game written by shit people. And that would not stand.

Lost it at the last one.
Is it me or does prefered caliber(12 ga) mixed with crafting(chemical and Mech) seem really powerful, as you can make all the neat loads yourself at little cost. That amount of variety basically negates lesser cartridges, does it not?
OP, where are you
What's a good system aside from Call of Cthulhu for horror/atmospheric games?
I've been able to pull off some tense moments in CoC, but I don't like the idea of a SAN stat, which sometimes detracts from the spooks. So, I'm curious as to what else there is.
>>46984413
Dread is known as the champion of alternative horror games.
>>46984413
>>46985262
>not unknown armies
>>46986254
Unknown armies is perfect for playing unknown armies and that is pretty much that.
Nemesis is Unknown Armies Horror system on ORE making it slightly more generic.
Also i agree Dread is only game i know that makes players nervous.
When failure depends on your personal nerves and skills instead of luck that does add something to horror.
Only thing better than Dread is Dread with electroshock.
Combo Edition
Let's talk combo decks. Which do you play? Which do you most hate and why?
Pic related, my favorite card in my favorite deck. Also, give me tips on how to remember to side wished-for cards back out because I lose more games to that than anything else.

Get outta town.

write it down on a note.
It's more strange to me that someone who can memorize 10+ piles at very least can forget something simple like that.
Unless you're the kind of retard that plays maniac-DD.
You know, it's hard finding music for wizards characters. There is fitting music for clerics, paladins, fighters, monks, and so on for the majority of the martial competent classes. However, I am struggling to find music that fits the tone that wizards/sorcerers have. I need music that fits the situation of conjuring beings from another plane or shooting lightning from my hands, or even just surging with phenomenal cosmic power as he makes his BBEG speech to the players. I love the pic related, but I haven't found anything like that in large quantities. Probably because...

Have you ever played or seen played just a straight up knight in shining armor, doing what's right and hitting things with a sword?
Yes. I was low level, and the armor wasn't that shiny, but I hit things with a sword and did what was right.
My first character was pretty much that cause I didn't know what I was doing. It wasn't until I read the book cover to cover that I realized how boring I was. It got better when he went EK but that doesn't get good till 7.
>>46983481
Yes, but it was a variant World of Darkness campaign. So the main characters were all fanatics raised by an ancient Conspiracy tied to the Catholic Church.
A long time ago, a group of Crusaders found the Daggers of Megiddo and swore to use them to kill the Antichrist. Each one took a single dagger and founded an Order that would exemplify his way of war, to train their successors. Whoever holds a Dagger is that Order's Grand Master, granted an ancient suit of armor and holy weapons.
Then he...

Didn't /tg/ once homebrew a game that was literally about being cute and having tea parties and stuff? Does anyone have records of that? Maybe a 1d4chan link?

MAGNUS DID NOTHING WRONG
Finished 1k Sons novel, do I really need to read this for any interesting bits on the invasion of Prospero, particularly on more Magnus/1k sons perspectives or any other things, or is it just the Wolves' perspective of the battle?
FUCK furballs tbqh family
>>46981422
Reminder that everyone did some things wrong and this is why the Heresy happened, yes, this includes the Emperor.
>>46981422
Yes.
To see the Space Wolves perspective.
>>46981422
Then read Scars to see some Jaghatai-Magnus BFF moments and the Khan basically telling Horus and Dorn "Fuck off, I'm gonna find out the truth on my own."
