Whether it be due to scheduling, lack of interested players, or some other reason, what's an RPG system you're just hoping to get to the table one of these days but haven't been able to yet?
@davidrevoy For smudging: I just tried rubbing the sheets together and didn’t see any smudging, but I think I didn’t put on enough to actually see that. I’ll try making it darker …
here’s a first test without smudging and without any postprocessing.
@grumpygamer In almost every RPG I've played going back to Seiken Densetsu 3 (secret of mana 2) on SNES (it might have been a fan-translated ROM, sue me) I've always been a fan of quests that originate from your party members.
Going over to a party member and asking something like "I've heard you mumblin in your sleep, what's up?" then hear that NPC pour his guts out... I know the world is burning and all, but my friend's in trouble so I'll help him first.
@shimminbeg@DarkestKale@BigJackBrass Ferromagnetic, hard but not as brittle as one might expect. It'll work nicely on an induction burner, when someone invents them, but I suspect it's pretty much magic stainless steel.
So I'm making this phantasmagoric fantasy game with my 17-yo design partner Tovey. Working title: The Demon Tree.
One of the design specs, straight from Tovey's vision for play, is that it has to feature exciting, dynamic, fast, tactical, multi-round and multi-participant fight sequences. Fights can't be over in a single roll or two, like in Apocalypse World, and they can't be a static slog of attrition, like in (some) D&D.
@herrold I do, if there is such a transgression! This particular demon just found its way over somehow. If the PCs stick around, maybe I'll delve into its backstory.
Creating a demon is a relatively short series of options and prompts. One of the strengths of this ruleset is that most things' writeups, inluding demons', are freeform text, like traits in Dogs in the Vineyard. To create a demon you mainly just follow some prompts to choose or write its traits!
@lumpley thanks! What'd the physical bits look like while you were playing this fight with your now adult children?
What do player characters risk in a fight, and how does that risk open up, if say they make a leading attack(obvious), while another character makes an attempt at a more deceptive, following attack?
Why are you playing #solorpg systems? #ttrpgs are living off their social interaction and emergent storytelling, which is not-existent or strongly diminished when playing solo. Which system do you play and what makes them work for you? #rpg#pnpde#pnp
@kik@lextenebris So much text. And yet I fail to see what new bring to the table. My intention was never to shame #solorpg players. I was just genuinely interested in motivation/experiences...even quotations marks are ignored...sigh
@samurro@lextenebris As you say, so much text. If you're still failing to see the interest of solorpg, maybe it's time to consider you may have preconceptions and are attached to them, to the point of refusing the answers to your very questions. And yes, you get heat because your contempt is showing.
It can be official, modified, or entirely homemade. What do you like about it? Is it super organized, simple and easy to use, or does it just look super cool?
Quelques photos de Bicolline pendant le prémontage de samedi.
Durant ces journées les joueurs peuvent venir installer leur camp, réparer ou améliorer leur bâtiment pour ceux qui en ont, entretenir le terrain etc.
Durant le temps de jeu, aucun éléments rappelant le monde moderne ne sera autorisé. Vêtements, glacières, voitures, téléphones etc, tout ça doit rester dehors ou invisibles pour les autres joueurs durant les événements. #larp#jdr#gn#rpg#Bicolline
Looking through the recent RPG news—ENnie winners, GenCon releases, that sort of thing—and I found myself wondering if I'll ever see a new game that interests me more than the ones I already have. I suspect that the market has changed sufficiently that either my sort of gaming isn't catered for, or else it's retreading ground covered by stuff on my shelf. The new games might be great, but I don't feel excited about them. Still, keeps the spending down 😁
@RogerBW@BigJackBrass@somedude I actually bought new dice the other day (after realising I only had one d8 & one d12 when I played Blade Runner), and... I thought I got ones that matched my current stuff - but no, one of them has white lettering and the other gold.
Although I have played and enjoyed some of the crunchier games out there, sometimes they just start to feel more exhausting than fun. I've also found it hard to get players to buy into games where you have 20+ different questions/choices during character creation....
Confession time: I am not overly enamored of "rules-lite" RPG systems. As long as the system is coherent and well-thought out, I prefer it when the system has rules for all sorts of things - from tactical combat to running chases to social encounters to falling damage and so forth. I like GURPS, I like D&D5E, I like Pathfinder...
Wow… I can't recall how long it's taken, but tonight Whartson Hall reached the end of Masks of Nyarlathotep. Although I've played it before, I never made it very far into Egypt before meeting a grisly demise, so this has been quite a trip. Did we succeed in saving the world? Well, you'll have to check your newspapers for 1926 to find out (or just listen to the episode when we release it on Friday).
O post do @captbarba79 (https://nuvem.lgbt/@captbarba79/110822631596903976) me inspirou a compartilhar meus personagens de #RPG (#DungeonWorld) feitos no #HeroForge
Primeiro: Henri Cartier, Ranger Orc com seu fiel falcão verde (NÃO É UM PAPAGAIO), Melon Volant.
Segunda e terceira imagens: Prof. Dr. Nazim Yavuz (Nível 1 e nível 10 respectivamente) um historiador que virou mago aventureiro.
Quarta imagem: Nyara Lyennir, elfa guardiã (meio q uma versão laica de paladino) que luta pra libertar seu povo da escravidão.
@Kiloku@captbarba79 te desejo uma boa mesa! e não hesita em sugerir esse tipo de abordagem pro grupo, 80% das regras de DW são sugestões que podem ser adaptadas ou alteradas ao desejo da mesa
@captbarba79 É mais narrativo e menos tático, eu diria. É um sistema sob o guarda-chuva de "Powered by the Apocalypse", que é uma família de sistemas de RPG. As rolagens em geral são 2d6.
Não sou a pessoa ideal pra falar bem de Dungeon World pq apesar de jogar, é um sistema q eu acho só "ok" 😆

Heu... il y a des t-shirts qui sont en vente depuis plus d'un jour... j'ai bien compris ou ils ne respectent pas leur propre charte ?
Je crois pas que Couerti soient réellement des gens sympathiques. Les derniers que j'ai connu qui versaient quelque chose aux créateurs (à part un sourire entendu), c'était le Goéland. Mais il est mort mazouté.
Hey all, my friend is starting a new game. We have some newbies joining and their attendance maybe hit and miss, with work schedules and life. What are some creative ways your groups have managed missing players outside of someone paying for them one session?
Has anyone seen a list of #Mothership#rpg supplements / sourcebooks / adventures of note? [Having failed to notice one I backed over a year ago not getting delivered] for whatever reason
