What if Dungeons and Dragons used knives instead of dice?
>>46205587
Then we shall pray to Khorne.
>>46205587
Knives don't roll very well and have a poor random distribution.
>>46205587
Grow up.
Then the people who freaked out about it in the 70s would have been more justified.
Knives are quite hard to roll and normally only have two sides.
I do not see this idea catching on.
>Not using dice that are also knives
>>46205613
>Knives are quite hard to roll
Couldn't you just throw the knives at targets with numbers on them?
>>46205587
What does this even mean?
>>46205587
I suppose you could flip a regular knife to function as a D2, then get one of those weird triple edged stilleto knives and roll those along the table like those weird "crystal dice" you sometimes see to have it function as a D3, in fact you could arbitrarily add edges to a stilleto and have it act as Dx where x= number of edges the stilleto blade has.
And obviously unlike normal die, they'd be much better balanced.
So this is just a general shitpost thread right OP? Good i forgot what this reaction gif actually was
>>46205587
What if Dungeons and Dragons used Fedoras instead of dice?
And this one
>>46205630
But anon, the Shadow knows.
>>46205765
well, at that point why not just drop D&D altogether and play Fedora: The Tipping?
>>46205765
You can't roll fedoras.
NEXT QUESTION!
last unknown one
>>46205808
Anyone know what happened to that Edge lord RPG someone was working on here?
I think cringe was the Mana equivalent?
>>46205749
Ressha Sentai ToQger.
The one in which five trains combine into boner-capable giant robot.
>>46205587
I don't think they'd roll well. Also they only have two sides.
>>46205881
what Fedora: The Tipping?
I got the .pdf right here...
>>46205978
Is that just random posting or aimed at something?
>>46205738
well, if we're flipping knives to act as d2s, then we can actually get any die by flipping multiple knives per roll. Each flip becomes 1 bit of information, and then you just need to represent your target rolls in binary. Naturally, this doesn't work for all dice: trying to roll a d20 ends up with either a d16 or a d32. Now you can do two things to solve this. Option 1 is simply roll a d32, re-rolling if you ever get higher than a d20. Option 2 is a little more complicated. Start by flipping ~100 knives. This gives you a number between 1 and 2^100 (roughly 34 billion). Divide this number by 20, and take the remainder as your roll.

also there's an expansion book right here.
Actually, I haven't read through this one yet.
>>46205605
Knives make a passable d2
>>46205661
Then the RNG stops being random
And it would become tiring to stand up every time to recover the knife
>>46205661
Then you might as well go larping.

>And it would become tiring to stand up every time to recover the knife
Sounds like somebody needs more knives.
Also it becomes a management system: do you REALLY need to hit bullseye right now, making it harder in the following times?
>>46206435
too much meta gaming for an RPG
>>46206435
Wouldn't darts be easier?
>>46206877
Theproblem with darts is that It's a very popular bar game, one that be picked up ad learned in mere seconds.
With a couple practice rounds, you'll suddenly be great. I'm no master of darts but I manage to land higher than a 15 every time I throw.
Using that as die rolls would get boring as the game progresses because people will pass every check you throw at them.
>>46207403
Only remove darts after an extended rest. The accumulation of darts on the higher numbered spaces will simulate the mounting fatigue of the characters. Or something.
>>46205611
Man up.

That's why your face turns blue when you suffocate. Too much oxygen.
