What are some powerful (CR 7+), non-construct, non-elemental, non-outsider, non-undead monsters from 2e, 3.5, and Pathfinder that look almost exactly like humans, half-elves, or elves in their true form?
Example: Nymphs with their supernatural beauty aura deactivated.
And by "powerful" in 2e, I mean in the high-HD/XP range, since 2e has no CR.

Nope.

Player characters? Well, many of them.

Welcome back to WrestleQuest! This is a SOL Quest in which you take the role of young Robin Winters, as he tries to make it big in the crazy world of pro-wrestling under the persona of The Ace.

Kim, waaaaay to obsessed with Robin. Kassius, he's just a complete tool. Kassius again because he was a giant baby at the end of the match.
Also you really gonna run every day? Jeebus take a break!
Discussion about this excellent skirmish game.
I've been trying to plant the seed of mordheim on my gaming community, it's the kind of game everyone has the models to.
But I ended up playing the half asian half latino dude that likes to be OMG so OP and he decided to play skaven and wrecked my shit with a score of ratmen against my 7 mercs.
It wasn't fun and he might break our little group.
Atm, i'm converting the shit out of my fantasy militia to become a bunch of crazy estalians raidin' lustria for shit and giggles
>>46223113
Just keep your own force of massed sling-wielding skaven and unfailingly match his skaven with your own.
And never use them against anyone else.
Post rare space marine chapters
I'll start - Adulators. Look at that fucking sexy colour scheme.

Marines Errant. I have a huge hardon for 1700-1800s naval warfare, and these guys actually fight in space and use their space marines as MARINES

>The Marines Errant signed a pact with the Rogue Trader house under Sia'hadn Ecale in 390.M38. The two powers combined their resources to explore the Ghoul Stars for more then forty years
God damn I didn't know I wanted space marine naval adventures a la master and commander so bad until right now

I don't know why you're complaining. Just means you can make this poor choice come back to bite them in the arse

Will I make. I'm just perplexed, especially because it was a long campaign and the ending was ... anticlimax.
Anyone find it ironic that Duel masters is this cliche over the top Japanese card game with crazy monsters and effects and Engrish names, but its designed by a bunch of old white dudes in Trenton?

Jersey has such a mangled accent I'm not surprised it's mistook for Engrish.

>Evil NPC adventuring party who bailed out of an AP half-way through in exchange for money, power and knowledge. PCs got caught up in their schemes and offed one of them, and the NPC party is out for blood. One of their plans is to squash them along with some other enemies beneath a giant flying pyramid.

I just finished a campaign where the dean of the Arcane College was an eco-terrorist, trying to make the land unsuitable for life. He prepared a procedure to transfer his soul into the body of a construct so that he could survive when everything was dead. At first, he was just ruining ecosystems: cursing a forest with blights, adding dangerous invasive species to environments, forming an alliance with a Mummy Lord (wanted to spread deserts) that the players let go after summoning with magic beans, etc. His big, grand plan, though, was to unleash an evil power that was sealed away in a holy site for Paladins. The evil power was a wave of death (a thick black sludge that drains away life) that would spread to cover the entire planet. He ended up achieving this plan, but the party beat him and re-activated the seal, causing the death sludge to surge back into the Paladin tower it came from. The dean's minions were all constructs he built. However, he appeared as an upstanding individual that kept the Arcane College running, so no one really thought him evil, except the party that had been informed of his evil ways be a druid. Since he seemed like a good guy, his minions didn't really show up until the end when the party decided to face off against him.
What is this thing /tg/? Only one way to find out!
Come on! Lets make a thing?

I have an idea what you're doing with this thread but I'm not certain, you might revise the format and try again next week for better results.

I am now gm-ing a dark heresy campaign (6 sessions)
Before we started i warned players that this will be a wery hard campaign. A lot of deaths etc.
I tried, but in first five games no one even needed to burn a fatepoint. Everything went rather easily for them. And now they are complaining.
Last session heretics managed to throw a fucking building on players heads. Only one burned fatepoint. Yeah.
So, how can you be more deadly as a gm but still be fair? I am not a fan of «Rock falls everyone dies», so that is not a variant
>>46220763
"You enter the corridor and you find a creature, made from molten magma and with death painted in its eyes staring right at you.
"Give me Will checks for Fear 4 and then you can fight the Charnel Daemon."
>>46220802
This is completely fair
>>46220763
Ambushes will sort it, overwatch and suppressive fire, pinning checks etc.
Just because you're playing 'fair' and the combat is an appropriate matchup, doesn't mean you have to fight clean.
Skeletons, unlike zombies, don't have fleshy bits
Their joints could be seen as being empty.
Thus, if a necromancer were to coat a skeleton's bones in a layer of metal (why was I about to write chocolate?), then he could greatly increase their durability without affecting their dexterity (well, maybe the spine would be fucked)
Conversely, one could argue that reanimation works because the body, having been home to a soul, is ready for an animating force to inhabit it without special preparation, but the metal casing around the bones would require something...

If you're going to go to the effort of getting molten metal in such quantities as to coat extremely irregular shapes like skeletons, you'd be better spending your time getting metal golems, metal weapons, or just getting more skeletons.
>>46220626
Just say that you want a Necromancer Wolverine.
>>46220626
I just stick a hornet's nest in a zombie. It's just as mean and a lot more cost effective.

>What do you do?
Assuming I know what I do today? Forget about the West, go East. Let Belisarius grind the Persians down to a stump and conquer Arabia. There's not much of worth, but anything that prevents 1453 is a good thing.
Maybe send Beli to Italy after that, if he feels up to the task. If not, well... 1453 was prevented and expansion to the East (closer to India) was made. Look for trade opportunities (preferably naval as to avoid Persian territory) East. Gotta get that cashmoney.
Let's get it out of the way:
I think DW sucks. I think Apocalypse World sucks. Either is not very good at handling their chosen themes and settings and have very poor implementations of Marks and Bonds.
BUT stripped down, they offer a good engine that has been used for creative and novel roleplaying. Games like Monsterhearts and World Wide Wrestling use to full potential the engine, in order to bring unique roleplaying, making the flaws of the original implementations of the system into strengths. Urban Shadows actually plays as WoD should play out.

is there a wuxia implementation of the Apocalypse engine?

No that I am aware, and it would probably not be very good at it.
This thread we read: Choose Your Own Adventure: You Are A Shark
I missed the Give Yourself Goosebumps thread so I decided to do this. Hopefully we attract a couple of /tg/ residents instead of just one guy.
Our adventure starts
ah crap, just realized I messed up my tripcode welp, no crying over that. First Choice alert.
I'll wait one minute then pick the choice that gets the highest end number on their post.
