Is it just me, or does Wotc know the player base for MTG is waning, that's why they came out with literal normie tier pirates vs dinosaurs lmao xDDD themed set? I've never thought I'd see literal dinosaurs in MTG one day. Literally pandering to the lowest denominator.
>>56862158SageKys Fuck off
>>56862217No one is singing their praises, but bitching and moaning about numagic is an eight year trolling effort that has never not been dumb and boring.
>>56862217All of the new (or "nu" if you were/are in special ed) MtG threads are thinly disguised attempts for /pol/ to shove its values down or throats
Why did it ever become a thing to hate things for the primary reason that many other people like it? I don't understand. I don't really give a fuck about pirates or dinosaurs (vampire conquistadors and merfolk incans are cool as shit though, and personally I find the actual lore of the Sun Empire to be interesting), but I dont see it as a negative that other people like them. If we go with the premise that its pandering, what exactly is wizards supposed to do, make sets out of things most people DON'T like?
Magic is dying. And thank god. There hasn't been a decent set since Tarkir, and even that was rather lame. Theros had decent mechanics. I would say Battle for Zendikar is where Magic completely jumped the shark. Now with all this political controversy, and the fact that they are cutting blocks down to a single set to jew the community as much as possible, I can see Magic the Gathering as a sponge full of water that has been almost entirely squeezed out by the greedy hands of Hasbro. As long as good goys like you all keep buying the cards, the game will survive. But that's changing. Their playerbase (the real playerbase, not the normoniggers who buy 1 to 2 packs for their spawn for Christmas) is dying out. Magic will survive on casual play for a while. But honestly? The sets are shit mechanically, constantly coming out with new keywords and then abandoning them forever. They are rapidly filling their design space. It's been years since they put out a Modern-viable card.... at least, one that they didn't ban 8 seconds later because it would ruin Jund players' deck combos or whatever shit, and they autistically screeched on social media until they got their way. And like any good company, Wizards of the Coast (with Hasbro leering overhead pulling their strings and desperately trying to keep the tip of its nose from leaking onto the stage) has been supporting whatever the fuck the community wants, no matter how retarded it is. Ban some YouTube guy because he said something mean toward a precious pussy? Sure! Put traps on the cards to show how progressive they are? Sure. Make absolute trash sets over and over, and make them so fast that non-competitive players hardly have a break or chance to get into them? Sure. Magic is a cash cow that is fast burning itself out. The game is trying to compete with autistic shit like Hearthstone. It will die soon, and hopefully it will die with some shred of its dignity remaining. Probably not, though.
Sometimes I avoid buying booster packs when I don't know how to correctly pronounce the name of the set. I don't want to embarrass myself in front of the cashier.
>>56861959(Of course I'm not a native speaker.)A lot of those are loanwords, though - which isn't a bad thing, mind you, but might be one of the reasons your grapheme-phoneme relationships are all over the place. Day to day vocabulary is a lot more limited, which makes it easy and manageable for non-natives. I don't doubt you've got plenty of fancier words - I'm a big fan of obscure and forgotten terms in my own tongue -, but the basic vocabulary is well, pretty basic and easy to pick up on. Short words, unfrequent use of synonyms, etc. So it's easy to learn, hard to master, I'd say. I don't like how english sounds, but that's a matter of tastes. It's very good as a lingua franca and its litterature is probably very interesting, but I'm having a hard time appreciating its sonorities. Also, you killed Jeanne, you monsters.
>>56856589I didn't want your admiration anyways.
>>56856589
Fuck off nazi.
Buying Magic Boosters is pointless, just do not do it, believe me.If you need a card for constructed, buy a single, it is much more cheaper than get it randomly. If you're playing limited, you're buying boosters when registering to tournament automatically. Boosters as separate product is a trap for newbies and money gain for wizards.

>>56862629good ol etrian art
>>56862629I'll be honest, that polls results were pretty skewed due to the shortness of that thread, but i still think putting it up friday is best. Sunday may be our busiest day, but both saturday and sunday are when people and 4chan in general are most active. Also, people may want advice before actually going into a game the next day, so having it up a little earlier isn't a bad idea.Its not necessary to try and start threads at our peak time. In fact, that'd make the rest of the thread even slower, and harder to keep up. Friday and saturday are slow, but ramp up and allow a good amount of topics to start, and sunday gets in full swing, and by monday or tuesday, if the thread dies, we can put it back up on friday, with a few days in between to cool off. We've got a good flow goin, no need to break it.

>>56861134We need to work this into the /gengen/ OP image.
>>56858167How about taking the signature abilities and making them more 'force power' like. Its own tree a character can commit to, over time getting more and more OP. Like the signature ability it needs to flip story tokens to activate.Alternatively, you can just make it so the PC pick them up later. You do not need to be 110% to lore it ti doe snot make seance in an TTRPG
>>56861169Im going to use the the one with the cat next, but if something jokes is added ill use that instead.
>>56861155With 4 mental stats it should be easier to cover too. I'm not sure if there are any real pitfalls to be concerned with as far as stat synergy.(example: in D&D 3.5 Int was a much better caster stat than Cha just because everyone can use the bonus skill points from int)
>>56861169There ya go, I added the AA (alcoholics anonymous) image to it. Seems fitting for this lot.

>>56858655>>56858684Sounds like a Golem would be a Mythical Zoan.
>>56858797The mythical "crafted man" fruit who has some properties of a clay logia but not as powerful/ to the extent a clay logia would have. Maybe it would be tougher than a logia, tougher than most zoan at that, shrugging of cannon fire and able to weather a buster call.
bump
>>56858684Then would things like the Grim Reaper and Angels be an acceptable Zoan model?
>>56862060yep. anything that isn't human but is alive (or "alive") is applicable for a zoan as long as it's in the right type.
>>56863399That's azidoazide azide. It will detonate at the slightest provocation.

someone was after critical role comic #3...now in /RPGNovels at snipli along with amber stuff, lankhamar, adventures of baron munchausen, Chronicles Of The Magi, tales of cthulhu invinctus, more dying earth stuff, Joseph Campbells The Hero With A Thousand Faces, some new horus heresy short stories (Duty-Waits, Magisterium, Now Peals Midnight) and Ahriman Key Of Infinity audiobookthanks to contributors, more still to come!
I usually prefer files that have not been "optimized" by Acrobat. Or whatever you are using. File size is not as big an issue as it used to be. The Role Aids file War of Darkness is a great example. pdf was so so at best, extracting images to correct was not happening because of over optimization.
>>56862886Seconding this.
Still searching for Overgrowth of the Undying", for Dystopia Rising. thanks.
>>56860192Thanks!
Im thinking of picking it up used at a local mom and pop shop. I dont know mich about it. Are the rules well laid out?How's combat? Thanks homies.
>>56860246I wish I was Monte, he got a ton of money for making Future Greyhawk with Octopuses and Spaceships. I mean come on the cover literally has Regdar the Fighter on it.
>>56859607If it’s only a test then core should suffice. If you do end u- getting sup-laments the rules being added or changed don’t affect enemy stats or invalidate them in any way.
>>56860358Tg hates it because it’s monte cook. All the nu,a fans are on other websites. Too much rules autists here.
>>56860358Numenera DM here. It advertises I itself as rules lite but it's really not. It's more rules-bland. As I said here >>56860188, everything boils down to things having a 1-10 level and the players roll a d20 against the TN. Character creation boils down to "I am a [adjective (Brash, Swift, Clever,gives a couple small bonuses and a hindrance)] [noun (fighter, thief, or mage)] who [verbs (these are either really cool, like having lightning or gravity powers, or they're lame, like shooting arrows really well or dual welding)]Character options are largely "get a plus when doing this thing" or "do some damage when you do a thing." They're simple but not interesting.The core of the game are cyphers, basically one-use magic items that the GM is meant to give out like candy (players can only hold so many at a time or bad stuff happens, from illness to implosion). Some are basic, like weapon enhancements or magic grenades or potions, others are really powerful (one is a nuclear rinse that kills everything in a ten-mile radius with radiation). Since they're one-use only, they're (intentional) not very balanced. If the players nuke a city, they have to deal with the consequences.As for the setting, as multiple people have pointed out, it's not bad, it's just nothing new. The current era is built on the remains of several billion years worth of past civilizations, so technology is commonplace but not necessarily well understood. Somehow most everyone is human, though. There's kings and bandits and queens and a mystical unknown adventure area, it's generic fantasy painted over with a sci-fi brush. A lot of things that I wanted to know more about are left really vague, telling GMs "it's your story!! Do what you want!"I love the game for what it is, generic science fantasy with an easy-to-use system, but I don't pretend it's the best one ever. We have fun with it, but we also play a lot of different stuff. If the book is cheap, get it. I wouldn't buy it full price.
>>56853147Its rad, you need to use the cypher book for some fixes like armor, and the two character addon books are essential

WotC doesn't care that there are worse things to worry about, they care that the average player doesn't like anything coming anywhere near their kidneys. It was asked why WotC stopped printing stuff like that, and that's the answer.

Searching for the bookFrom Robert Leonhard:The Art of Maneuver: Maneuver Warfare Theory and Airland BattleCan anyone help me with that?
Wehraboos-Can late war SS and Heer figures be used interchangeably? I'm wanting to put together a late war Heer platoon in the reversible winter uniforms, can I use SS figures and paint the camo side with a Heer print? From looking at the Osprey plates it appears they're the same other than the color of the camo side (figure #1 in both plates) - am I missing anything there?
>>56863057The SS wore camo smocks, which were pullovers. The Heer wore their camo zelts like ponchos.
>>56863057Oops, just noticed you said winter. I'm not as well versed in that, but it should work.
>>56863466Didn't the Heer have at least some camo uniforms as well (esåecially for panzergrenadiers), though not as common as zeltbahn ponchos?
Tell me about the Night Land. What makes it such a difficult environment for survival?
>>56861890I don't want to be all 'dragons exist so why does X need to be realistic', but why does it matter that the stellar physics is right?I feel like the symbolism of the sun and stars having burnt out and plunging the world into darkness is the most important thing. It isn't the same if they're just mistaken and the sun is totally fine.
>>56862054How about the earth, for what ever reason, is ejected from the solar system and is drifting ever further into the interstellar blackness?
>>56861852>>56861890>>56862054Many of the "expanded universe" stories written after we figured out how starts work have explained away this discrepancy by saying that the sun did NOT reach the end of its natural life cycle, but that it was prematurely fed upon by certain unimaginably huge manifestations of the Dark Powers.Meanwhile, Greg Bear's spiritual successor "The City at the End of the World" is set in roughly the year 100 Trillion. The Sun has been artificially rekindled several times, but there are no longer enough resources to keep it up.
>>56845284Stop reading it as soon as possible. Its terrible. The setting might be cool but the writingstyle is absolutely atrocious and it is easily 70% too long for what is happening.
The way that /TG/ talks about the Night Land is literally the most reddit thing on this message board.It's almost Usenet level cringe.
