The Gaming Den

The problem with that is: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/fiction_rule_of_thumb.png So what do you guys want to play as and do in oriental adventures Play youkai monster girls. I made an oriental setting for my gaming group, drawing inspiration mostly from Touhou, Inuyasha, and Avatar. Mostly did races,...

I'm sorry for your loss. I might understand some of what you're going through, and this thread has helped put some things in perspective. Some time ago, I lost my mother to cancer. And it was a very slow cancer where I had to watch her waste away over the years until she was completely bedridden and...

Are we still talking about a color wheel for a CCG or is this intended to work in an RPG as well? Ideally it should be able to work for both. A CCG generally has things categorized into power levels and groups. More than that, it has Venn Diagrams . An L5R character has a clan and a class and a pow...

There are a lot of Shitmuffinisms on display in his rebuttal. There's even a point where he denies saying something, and in the same paragraph says that even if he did say it it was totally fine and just a reference to something. Truly Shitmuffin is the person Shitmuffin always showed himself to be...

Found this on some alt-right assholes twitter. The lack of self-awareness is hilarious.

Highly recurring percent chances. Things like "3% chance to deal double damage on every hit". Easy to just slap on and forget when the CPU is rolling for you, absolute ass when you have to roll those dice yourself.

Because the dungeon in question is in northern Europe. The Slavs and Norse weren't exactly running around building ten-story deep death traps for their dead kings. Also, I like the idea that at least some dungeons spontaneously generate. Weirder shit happens in D&D. I've always liked that idea ...

This brings me to another point. 1/encounter limitations were a terrible idea. Replacing them with 1/minute serves about the same purpose without also involving horrendous amounts of metagaming.

Why did late era 3.5 decide that the Rakshasa were a tribe that needed a whole bunch of variants? I don't actually know. Like, we certainly could go the full Hinduism thing and elevate Rakshasa to the level of Demons and then have a bunch of them of various strengths and shit. That would have been ...

The majority of supers in Worm are one trick ponies, so there's definitely superhero fiction out there that works that way. I can't imagine a sane system for playing Worm in though. Like the protagonist can control all bugs in a 3-block radius, so she cares about things like how nice of a neighborh...

It's also important to remember that demographics are rarely (if ever!) evenly dispersed. It's possible that an area with a population that might tehincally allow for only 1 supernatural to have hundreds for whatever reason. Or that hugely populated areas might be supernatural deserts for whatever r...

[*] Demons: Like Fey, this is pretty much a grab bag term meaning "magical monster" and you could plausibly bring in as many of these fuckers as you felt like. One issue that Demons have is that of the many many kinds of Demons people imagine, only a couple of them can remotely manage to ...

Also the Revised Edition straight up cuts tribes. Some are dead and the Stargazers left to go join the Beast Courts. So in Revised you have twelve tribes, where two are native American, zero are African, zero are Asian, zero are Pacific Islander, and ten are some flavor of white people. It kinda so...
