    When to set a "historical" supers game? (read OP before answering poll)

    I want a Rokoko supers game, with heroes in heel shoes, white stockings, powdered wigs and insane amounts of lace and rushe. Let the sun king of France be a perpetual evil, nemesis to heroes like madame Chat Blanc and monsieur Cygne Vindicatif.

    New Warhammer Old World TTRPG Announced

    I also only play via Foundry, and yes, WFRP4e is playable there with all the automation. Still, without knowing the rules and the basics of table contents etc, my players can't really make meaningful choices in game. In a lighter system, the players can learn and do a lot just by intuition and...

    New Warhammer Old World TTRPG Announced

    A revised and un-quirked WFRP 4.5e system would be ideal.

    New Warhammer Old World TTRPG Announced

    I'll keep my eyes open for what system C7 will use. WHFR4e is not only crunchy, which I can live with, but quirky and unnecessarily unintuitive in the wrong places. 2e would be ideal, but there's no VTT support for that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Magic healing of inborn conditions

    In fantasy, I let my players decide if and when the question pops up. The world will still be populated by people with "defects", since hey class society. In Sci Fi it's only a matter of credits.

    Wizards of the Coast's Archetype Entertainment to Publish Exodus TTRPG Based on Upcoming Exodus Video Game

    Not enough though for artists to have chosen only phallic motifs, or for us to remember it as The Empire of the Schlong.

    Wizards of the Coast's Archetype Entertainment to Publish Exodus TTRPG Based on Upcoming Exodus Video Game

    Unless the physical society is extremelly infested with and dominated by phallic shapes, artists have a choice of motif. It’s possible I guess, but s far I haven’t seen Dick planet in Stars Without Numbers tables.

    What's your VTT of choice?

    I use Foundry. Even though I'm a non-techy old geezer it is very easy to use with systems that have ok implementation in Foundry. Then there are lots and lots of fan created add ons to choose from and modify to taste. With that said, I took a couple of months to learn the basics and test run...

    Wizards of the Coast's Archetype Entertainment to Publish Exodus TTRPG Based on Upcoming Exodus Video Game

    That phallic shapes exist in a society, for utilitarian or esthetic reasons, doesn't necessarily mean that society itself must be depicted as and represented by them.

    D&D General 5e D&D to OSR pipeline or circle?

    I ditched 5e a long time ago, and use Savage Worlds as my system for current playstyle campaigns: character- and rp-focused sandboxes with lots of conspiracies, politics and intrigue. I only started to explore OSR this year, and it's a wonderful swamp to drown in. DCC is my game of choice, but...

    Looking Back on 2024 – Looking Forward to 2025

    I’ve only spent a modest amount this year on OSR and DCC pdf stuff. And the only thing I really need next year is the Foundryfied Savage Worlds Sci Fi Companion, then I’m good for a couple of years.

    What TTRPG Is Perfect and Complete In One Volume?

    I love SW, it's my goto system for most genres. But I still think it runs better with a setting or companion book, core alone can feel a bit thin. Still fully playable though.

    What do you use Chat GPT for?

    If you look at the examples in this thread it's not a misunderstanding in a rpg user context. And that's what we're talking about, right? If you talk about AI in general you will only get far leftist capitalism critique from me, I'll save you that per the forum rules.

    What do you use Chat GPT for?

    All I see from chat gpt etc is a way to not use ones own creativity. I want my brain - with all it’s limitations - to be able to get into creative overdrive when I need it. It’s something I enjoy and don’t want it to wither away or be replaced.

    What TTRPG Is Perfect and Complete In One Volume?

    Dungeon Crawl Classics, even though earlier experience with games and gaming adds a lot, as do the gazillions of zines, 3pp stuff and parallell systems.

    D&D General [Humor] Things You Hate About 7E

    I still prefer OOONOOOSR, like our grandpa's used to play it.

    Payn's Ponderings~ Campaign settings and you?

    I usually GM sandboxes where I like wide world framings, so I have stuff like overarching history and pantheons etc to lean on. It's been decades since I found fun in creating worlds as a thing in itself. Nowadays I prefer to let worlds grow organically through play.

    D&D General Let's celebrate D&D having things we don't like! (+)

    I love how monsters are static sacks of hit points, from minions to interplanar demigods. Even if monsters have fullpage stat blocks, superhero PCs still just have to smack the piñata until it doesn't move. Combat being stress free and non-deadly means the players don't have to engage their...
