I recommend you guys don't use free archetype.

>>92823526
You don't even have to do that, though. Easy enough to use a 1h weapon so a Spellstriker Staff (with its Shifting rune, notably) can give you at least half a dozen extra Sure Strike castings.

We've had this discussion before. Make your own private ones and heavily gatekeep them. The reason they are so pervasive is because normal people are outside living their lives while the terminally online wokeys just glomp onto every open nerdy community and infest it with their ideology like a plague. HRT has hit the NEET community like crack hit the black community in the 70s.

>>92824898
If free Archetype is so great, why doesn't it work with Ancient Elves?

>>92820030
Looks terrible from just skimming through it.

Also, I know making TTRPGs is pretty much not something you choose to do and instead is more like trying to kill this brainworm that is eating you from the inside, but holy shit I can't think of anything else right now that could interest me less than this, what is even the point of this crap.

Anyway, I'm not the target audience, I still hope it sells well and people play it, author-kun.

Got banned from their discord for asking questions about one of the game's OWN MAJOR FACTIONS because apparently showing interest in said faction is wrongthink. Imagine joining a Fallout discord and getting banned for asking questions about the Enclave. It's THAT bad.

Yeah, yeah, discord drama I know. Still, killed my interest in the community and wanting to run the game entirely.

It's like I hate it so much but at the same time I'm surprised One didn't change that. I get why they would, it would fix the caster/martial problem, but still.

Include a derringer with a custom bullet size with every book and label it "conflict management". Sell additional bullets at slightly marked up prices. Make no changes to the game.

Shit bait thread. 5e is a great game and I've been playing it since release.

>>92824791
Farming, digging and construction seem like pretty straightforward ones. Underwater work could be a good spot for mechs. You could use them for some sorts of competitive sports too I guess. Some sort of emergancy response mech seems like it might be a good idea. Really I guess it depends on the shape and the setting but you could probably find a reason for using a mech in place of any vehicle if mechs are a thing that exist. You could even do something like a big parade float type thing built to make some sort of spectacle.

>>92824791
At typical mecha scale, probably not a lot of interaction with human scale stuff without some side effects. Industrial stuff like moving heavy equipment, using mega tools, dangerous terrain work and so on is always applicable. Speech, can be used as propaganda, like walking through the streets as a giant unignorable billboard. Doctor, you could have a suite of medical kit to operate like a humanoid ambulance, either using outer arms or secreting any injured persons within the mech's frame. Thief is difficult simply due to the size but you could have a stealth field generator sort of deal that only works at scale, nothing smaller than a big tank or mech can lug it around.

>>92824825
Farming seems like a good one. I could see hydroponics mecha being an extension of a doctor type character as well for making herbs on the fly (or as much on the fly as growing herbs is) construction also is good but I feel like that's always the second role behind military vehicle. Emergency response such as firefighters could develop into being non-combat focused. My idea is less using mechs in place of vehicles and more in place of people to an extent. I want to try and minimize the gap between mecha and pilot as much as is reasonable.
>>92824851
Yeah I'm not expecting mecha to be a full replacement as otherwise i'd be better to just have a normal RPG with humans or human-like mecha I.E. Transformers or Brave. My idea is that a pilots skill set could be amplified by the mecha, so if you have a diplomatic speech charactern their mecha would be focused around comms and leadership as well as enemy deception and the like. A thief or rogue could have a mecha with high radar use and easy safecracking or hacking skill sets. As much out of the box uses for mecha that moves away from standard combat.

NTA, but to my knowledge (South only)...

The SRA is Imperial France
Mekong Dominion combines tropical SEA nations, imperial Japans (honor, katanas, taipans, etc.) and is pretty much a reference to Uoodo from VOTOMS.
Humanist Alliance is Singapore (high tech police state) with a caste system
ESE is Saudi Arabia as an oligarchy (the 50 crew members of the Eastern Sun founded 50 royal families and they jointly rule the territories).

I like the South much more than the North,

>>92824490
that's fair, but we been talking about golconda earlier and that also has zero rules and because of that both it's requirements and effects are also 100% up to the st

True, but given that Infernalism does damn your soul, usually all it takes is a single step, I'd rather not lock it out. I'm sure between Thaumatugy, spirit pacts, & garou gifts, I'll find a way to ignore silver & fire

>>92824623
tell me if you find one, the best thing i know is turning fire damage into bashing and then using thaumatugry to give yourself 2 more dice to soak fire and resist fire frenzy

as for silver there is one werewolf gift that allows you to soak it, but i don't think it does more so the best thing to combine it that i know is to ask a friendly mummy to give you a anti metal amulet but that also only gives you 2-3 extra dice to soak

That is all well and good, but in order to roleplay properly, don't you think you'll need to consider the political implications of feudalism in the power dynamic of a lordly ruling class juxtaposed by a inherently magical theocratic power structure, and the subsequent effects on the social development of the peasant class?

The artist I commission that's working on a wargame, I'm not sure if it's full blown NSFW lewd, but making a seven meter tall muscular cyborg dude with a ball turret right where the cock should be, I think sets him promptly into the lewd game camp.

World: Harmonia

My goal is to have as much sex and breed as possible. My plan is to go to Harmonia, because it has only one god (I forgot his name so he will be Dickface from now on) and a very powerful demon lord to back me up.

My initial goal is to establish a self-sustaining human population to generate DPU and sell souls to Elrineth so I can make even more DPU. This will be achieved by abusing illusion magic and Abyss Witches to trick groups of refugees into entering portals that lead to gas trap rooms within my dungeon that will knock them out and allow the Dominators to rewrite their memories and brainwash them into loyal slaves. Elrineth will also be present to ensure everyone signs their souls over to him and I (and my clones) will personally knock up all females (after gaining the Horde trait from Goblin minions) so they produce powerful offspring.

I will also have my clones take the Tribe trait and reproduce with me in order to produce even more clones.

The general aim will be to build up my power and forces. In addition, my servants will tech up until we can mass produce powerful and cheap infantry weapons (like AKs and the like) to equip my skellies, zombies, orcs and goblins. I will abuse Abyss Witches' portals to launch guerilla attacks and so on in tandem with Veuna, the main targets being stockpiles of food and weapons as well as military academies and hospitals to reduce the quality of the forces Dickface can field.

Please anon, don't tell me you just tried to conflate current era identity politics with 80's anti-establishment discontent.

>>92824386
If that's what makes the hobby happen for your group then I'm all for it. The thing is that access to a sculpted table with features modeled into the play surface was once understood to be highly desirable, but the modern waacfag is confused and frightened by uneven ground and so he pushes for Warmahordes-style football pitch boards with clearly marked scoring areas and terrain so generic it can be replaced with a paper footprint. This was never a concern for 40K players until GW started listening to waacfags.

>>92824790
Literally every card is a combo piece with something. If you're going to pitch a fit about cards that interact with other cards, then just make sure your deck doesn't have those interactions.

>>92824731

>>92822553
>In these situations where a player is in an infinite combo that they can't get out of, if they can't win from it, they lose, and the game continues.
This isn't actually true, in a loop where there is no possible way out, the game is ruled a draw
>719.4. If a loop contains only mandatory actions, the game is a draw. (See rules 104.4b and 104.4f.)

>>92822447
As someone else said, that specific loop doesn't work due to it being a sacrifice trigger. What's funny though is that if it was a dies trigger. Since the game cannot allow a truly infinite loop, players must eventually take an action that makes the loop end. In this case since it's a surveil 1, the game rules would force you to mill your whole deck to get out of the loop.

The Perry European mercenaries and light cav reiters are pretty perfect for Italian wars actually. Can be painted as Swiss, French, Italian. WGA Conquistadors is stretching it, but idgaf - I am Hollywood Historical all the way.
