Where do you live, and how does it influence your hobby?I live in Toronto and it always annoys me how there are 700+ references for Fantasy New York or Fantasy Los Angeles while we got Forever Knight. The rest of the country doesn't even have that

Central Minnesota.
It doesn't because I am an adult that does things that I want to do. The only real effects location has on the hobby is population density and if you're not in a shit filled brown country.
You're just a baby who gets ass blasted that they can't be equally represented in things. How about you just make something set in your fucking shitty city.
Typical fucking Canadian wants equal representation but doesn't want to get off their syrup laden ass to go...

What happens when you stuff 3.2 billion kilograms worth of stuff into a roughly 1.5m diameter sphere? My players are planning to use various home brew magic skills and powers to create this thing on the roof of a sixteen story tall doomsday bunker built into a mountain.
>>46930321
You get a very dense object that will collapse into a singularity with a mass of 3.2 billion kg.
>>46930321
billion in long scale or short scale?
Assuming short scale, the event horizon radius is 4.753 * 10^-18 m, far smaller than 1.5m. So I would think this sphere will immediately explode in a planet shattering explosion due to the pressure.
http://www.wolframalpha.com/widgets/view.jsp?id=15c7a7eb32c8610b005811b8640ebc1
The Schwarzschild Radius for 3.2 * 10^9 kg is 4.753 * 10^-18 meters
So you haven't squashed it anywhere near enough to make a black hole. It will probably just expand again when the magic ends.
Probably a rather sudden expansion.

This is a familiar place, one that you’ve visited before, and have not returned to for over an entire decade of life. A place that you thought destroyed, long forgotten by both the city and the denizens of the capital. A place you swore never to return to again.
It’s as exactly as you remember it. One of many crude shacks in the slums of the capital, it still had that insufferable scent of mildew and mold that held fast to the walls. Two rooms, a bedroom and a kitchen, with the familiar sight of old grievances and arguments ingrained throughout the structure.
The door lock is always broken. Only one man tried to steal from the inhabitants of this shack, and his disappearance was enough to turn even the bravest of thieves away. There was never a need to bar the door save for closing it against the elements.
It is the wreckage that adorns the house that is recent. Overturned furniture and shattered walls decorate the room. Broken bottles, their contents and containers left on the ground to create a noxious, billowing smoke. Foodstuffs and wine mingle together, creating a conglomeration to mix with the blood running along the floor.
And the body of an elder man, eyes glassed over and unseeing, lies slumped against the wall, bleeding profusely from countless wounds all over his body.
For every wound that decorates his body, he graced yours with three more. He did not make it an easy fight by any means necessary. This was a fight to the death. There was to be no mercy given, or taken, between the two of you.
Two pairs of blades, two dancers coming together.
Only one walks away.
(cont.)
Suddenly, the corpse jerks to life, limbs seizing and contorting in a macabre parody of life. Guttural moans and wheezing breaths eventually give way to a rasping laughter, voiced by a ruined throat, choked by blood and offal. It makes no effort to stand, content to smile and laugh in a pool of its own blood.
In any other situation, you would have driven your blades right into the undead’s skull. Complete and utter destruction of the head and cranium was a crude, but widely accepted method of killing an undead. And even without a given order, you would then begin the...

He lies. Lucien Painel was many things, but a good father was not one of them.
You still bear the scars and phantom pains of his teachings, driven into your body ever since you were able to hold a weapon. One does simply not forget a childhood deprived of any sort of normality, where every waking moment is a fight to survive. And with your mentor, he only sought to add to the odds stacked against you.
His love was shown through years of pain.
His affection, blood and iron.
Your inheritance,...

I can't sleep, I've figured that out by now. It's not like I don't want to be able to lay down and rest and dream, it's just that I'm almost positive this new body of mine simply can't sleep at all.

I shake my head, as invasive and crawling and down right unpleasant thoughts seep into my mind, the kind of thoughts that would get me whipped red back home
I smirk, and flap my wings a bit as I start to walk through the near pitch black room in the rafters and....wait, I can smell food...smells like sausages, pancakes, and fish again. Always with the fish...Still, smells much better than anything I used to cook up back home.
Closing my eyes, I stand still and try to figure out how close all that...

Patiently waiting for Mage 2e and the Monday Meeting Notes edition

Have you ever played on an online MUSH or moderated chat? If so, what were your experiences?

That was the last thread.
>>46925093
>Patiently waiting for Mage 2e
So question, since I'm quite a ways behind. Are there any links to major mechanical changes between 1e and 2e. Better yet, are there character creation rules out there?
>>46925134
There's been several major mechanical changes. Spellcasting works completely differently, as does the effects of Paradox. I don't know if a full suite of chargen rules has been leaked yet but go look up Dave's blog posts and you'll see the revealed material so far.

My Wizard summoned a Djinn, got a wish off of it, and then released it. It then promptly enslaved a whole nation and is running all kinds of nasty black market slavery deals and warring with everyone etc.
Whatever, mortals are worthless anyway.

>Have your characters ever caused some horrible shit to happen by just not caring enough to stop it?
My necromancer has been constantly leaving old, outleveled minions behind. There's a bloody skeleton hydra in some dwarf's tomb, a gaggle of fast zombie orcs just sitting around in a swamp, etc.
I reckon a lot of people have died to those boys.
Even when I don't need them anymore, they're doing work... Brings a tear to my eye.

Fuck yeah.
War games go back a long way, and I'm pretty familiar with the historical and fantasy games that came before the big names around today.
But I feel as though sci fi comes up a little short. Was 40k/Rogue Trader the first big one to hit the scene? What inspired it? And what lesser known games came after it? I'd really like to read more rule sets, because it's something I enjoy, but it's such a niche thing I can't seem to find much. Any old school, hardcore folks wanna educate me?
Pic related, it's deadzone. Which I felt was awkward...

>Which I felt was awkward and didn't like very much.
Try the newest edition (2.0) with someone. It's much better.
Of the top of my head, I can think of Infinity, Beyond the Gates of Antares, Warpath and Deadzone, X-wing and Star Trek Attack Wing, Dark Age, and the Firestorm games.
No idea about Gates, since they haven't posted the rules for free like so many other companies, but I've heard its close to 40k.
X-wing and Star Trek Attack Wing are dog-fighting games in space. X-wing is very popular right not.
Dark Age is pretty good for a small skirmish game. Combat is brutal, most things die quickly once its targeted by the enemy. The art style will turn some...

40k's setting came from Combat 3000 and Laserburn, which itself inspired Laser Squad which lead to X-COM. Praised be. Its mechanics came from Warhammer, which was mostly pulled out of the blue to sell miniatures. Laserburn's neat, but clunky as all hell. Play Imperial Commander if you're that interested in proto-40k.

While the enemy ventured faster than you could follow by means of an aerial vehicle to the west, you found something else to entice you in the opposite direction. Your current mission, a wellspring of power beneath a part of this foreign to you city.

Werewolves have gotten boring.
How do we make werewolves more interesting?
>>46904597
Each and every one of them is a loli.
>>46904597
Werewolves are always shamanistic animals, until the full moon arises, and they become humans - going to nearby villages and impregnating the females so that they can create more lycans.
>>46904597
Every time they transform, their sanity erodes a little bit more, and there's a risk of them being stuck in that shape permanently.

So, what inspired the stat-gen system?
>>46897254
It was mostly based off the need to have a dynamic stat system where HP equated to attrition causing fights to either drag on desperately or cause severe upsets. Essentially by its design it would punish complacency and keep people on their toes even if they have a high wall of stats.
