I want to run a campaign in the Heroes of Might & Magic setting. Which system would be best?
>>46752913
The classic answer, but this time for real - GURPS.
Because you need to handle multitude of races, magic types, species, rather broad differences in technology and what not.

I was afraid of this. I've never been able to understand GURPS.
General purpose thread about games that don't have any digital scans or copies.
I'm starting work again in a few weeks and have thought about buying a copy of the Trunks/Android/Garlic book to take apart and scan, since literally 0 digital copies exist. I know the game is god awful, but I kind of adore it and want to make an archival effort.
If i do it, would anyone else care?

I would be, definitely. I've been trying to get my hands on a copy or PDF copy of this for awhile.
But it's a pretty big expenditure for an archival.
>>46752624
I'd love a copy as i have the first two
>>46752624
I've only known about the card games
the original forgotten one and the score ,panni ones
I'd definitely be interested in something like this
does it play like dnd ?
Say one day you come home and find that there's a new door in your bedroom that leads to an apartment in the middle of a fantasy world. In the second apartment is a note saying the apartment is in your name and the connection will follow you as long as you pay the rent (a nominal fee in gold).
What would you do with this portal?
I'll try to preemptively answer some questions I know will be asked
>The common species don't have access to magic
>There are however magic substances, so alchemy...

I would explore the land on the other side, and publish the stories about that in a best selling novel on my own world side, as a way to fuel further exploration of this fantasy world on the other side.,
look for a job i guess if i want to keep the place. If the rent is payed in gold then i can also sell some and pay my rent in this world too.
explore the city and surrounding areas a bit. live life in fantasy land while still keeping in touch with family in real world.

We need players for a Skype DnD thats basically GuP with ships.
The Navy Game involves high degrees of autism, both from the players and the mechanics.
The setting is an alternate history where aliens attacked during WWI, and WWII was instead the people of earth fighting this enemy. We start off in PRESENT DAY, so we have modern technology, however for the purpose of the game all the combat takes place using WWII and earlier ships, firearms, and costs (The US dollar is worth the same that it was worth in the 1940's).
Game time goes presently from 6:00pm...

Shameless bump
>>46751990
What are the mechanics like?
>>46752512
Basically you state your action and the DM rolls for you and plugs it into his modifiers to keep up the suspense. Its quite enjoyable when youre in the thick of things. There typically a 1-2 week period in between battles and weve already fucked up the Spanish, Turkish, and Romanian schools.
You can be whatever you really want to be within a fleet. Like Submarines, Destroyers, yadda yadda, aircraft, or even a Marine. If you want to hone your skills at something you say you want to practice it.
Post a better map than this one.Protup: Y'cunt

Good afternoon, /tg/!
A few days ago I posted a thread asking for help in filling out a pantheon of gods for a setting that I'm working on.
After getting a few suggestions I decided to limit the pantheon to a very manageable five gods, arranged in a seasonal cycle.
Now, though, I need to give them names! The culture that the players are going to belong to is very Viking-inspired, with elements of the pagan Celts.
The five gods are as follows:
The God of Time is also the god of Knowledge, Magic, and Justice. He is the King of the Gods and...
