>not speaking a specific second (or third/fourth/etc) language so you can communicate easily with the evil party members while the good party members are sleeping

We use ASL for the evil party members. It's been going great though there is always a chance that the lazy stupid "good" party members might eventually pick some up.

What languages do you use, /tg/? Any tips on keeping the real fun hidden from the retards in your group?

I dunno, OP, but they must be pretty effective. After all, they've hidden it from you.

Can you play a RPG with only two people? If so, what systems? I have no experience of rpgs but enjoy my board games. Any suggestions appreciated

Two players, including the Master or a Master and two PCs?
>>
>>46134519
You mean two as in 'one game master, one player"? If so, afaik yes, you can, although it's a little below optimal. There are even some adventures made for 1v1. It can sure work out, it's just systematized make-belive, keep that in mind.

Op here.

Me and the missus basically have an interest in starting an RPG, but there are no clubs or groups wed join near us.

It would just be the two of us.

Since when does the sword scream?

>>46133956

It's not the sword, it's Minmax screaming earlier.
Whenever he draws it his hand goes into a little portal and picks it up from when he let go of it.

Wasn't that line from when he was trying to throw his sword to Forgath but he kept grabbing it.

You are a shard of one of the ancient and undying gods locked away long ago by a lone goddess, stealing much of your power. The time when men huddled in caves and mud huts, saying your name in tones of reverence and fear has long passed. Now, they worship the one who cast you away in grand cathedrals, and you're existence can only be found in the oldest of tomes. Much has changed since you last were aware of anything, even you're identity, but now you feel a trickle of energy flowing down to you in the abyss. You feel memory returning. Who are you?

I failed to hit a chicken that was at my feet and ended up chopping off one of my toes.

So that was pretty fun. Of course if I lose another toe I'll be taking a dex penalty, so that's not fun.
>>
>>46130287

Why would you be taking Dex Penalties for losing toes?

Maybe if it was only for running/acrobatic type stuff and even then after some downtime the GM should let you remove some of those penalties by learning to adjust to your new feet properly.
>>
>>46130345
Because you lose quite a bit of balance when you lose a few of your toes.

It's really only for losing some AC since I literally don't have any skills that use Dex that I put points into.

What did /tg/ think of pic related?

I thought the 80s motif was goofy, but fun. It kept me entertained, enough.

What are /tg/ thoughts on kill team heralds of ruin and how does it compare to other skirmish level campaign war games like mordheim and necromunda? Post your lists and stories of your games.

Haven't played yet.

I like the mini-Codexes with custom options thrown in to add flavor and/or utility to certain teams.

Unfortunately, they're under a kind of rebuild at the moment. Original site owner and curator kind of fell off the grid, and eventually said he's not going to keep it up anymore. Another group picked it up and is currently bringing it fully forward into 7e, where some were still stuck in 5e. New group seems a little more open to some new ideas, like incorporating Forgeworld more actively into the mini-Codexes in specific cases, and smoothing over some problems in certain codexes like BA having WS/BS3 scouts while vanilla and DA SM scouts have WS/BS4.

Top fucking kek.

>>46129422
Its baby's first skirmish game.

That said, it is better than baseline 40k, but that isn't a stunning accomplishment.

Just play Frostgrave/Infinity/Malifaux as suits your tastes, unless you live in one of those hellholes where people refuse to give anything non-GW the time of day, in which case you have my pity.

First, I'm going to burn my worst enemy's gigantic marijuana farm to the ground.

Then I'm going to break into a secure bank vault and steal all his money.

After that I'm going to fuck his wife, blow up his house, and go out in a hail of gunfire.

Fighting until the end with every last ounce of strength they have was always the most endearing death.

The ones who try to run and get shot in the back aren't remembered very well.

(If someone knows how to get this added to the quest runner directory, I’d be grateful).

You are THE CAPTAIN of the TSAB dimensional patrol vessel TSL Nimbus, currently having just finished re-entry in Uninhabited World Number 117. Somewhere on the ground far below your mages are attacking an illegal firearms smugglers’ hideout, their objective being to disable (intact!) the smugglers’ freighter before it can take off and escape into space.

“Renault, engage the ground mage. Maserati, get to the ship while she’s distracted.”

“Finally!” Renault huffs. She charges straight for the kill, while the ground mage shoulders her rocket launcher and fires. The resulting explosion and cloud of dust prevents you from seeing who came out on top for the moment.

Not that you have the time to spare – switching screens, you judge the new aerial mage’s speed, the one trying to intercept Ophelia, and find it wanting.

“Ophelia. Keep heading straight for the freighter; the mage will get only one pass at you. Make it through and she won’t be able to catch up with you again and you’ll have a clear shot the rest of the way.”

“Acknowledged.”

The two mages close the distance between one another like a pair of knights in an ancient joust. Both with polearm Devices, it comes down to bravery and skill, to not flinch, to strike true, to defend against her counterpart’s blow, to pierce through to victory.

Out of the corner of your eye you notice – “Maserati! What’re you doing sitting there, get your lizard on the move already!”

There’s another explosion and Renault is blasted backwards and into a building, leaving a magical-girl-shaped hole in the wall. To her credit, she gets up swinging, taking out the rest of the wall as she comes out drill-first.

“ImsorryIlldoitpleasedontyellatmeagainpleaseimsorry,” Maserati whimpers, too occupied trembling to actually get a move on.

Have the same objective as the rest of the PCs, and the patience to work with them towards that goal, without rocking the boat.

"Defeat the greater evil" and all that.
