The Gaming Den

That means the Pit Fiend doesn't just laugh at the puny mortals and instead sighs and engages. "So we're doing this now. FIREBALL !" I can get behind that. Does this make armies relevant in the setting? Can a platoon of pikeman and archers actually deter a dragon from attacking their castl...

Error... I implied that I'm bad at running sessions and putting together campaigns, but if you want to poke at my game design skills you can go eat a creamy sausage. --- The problem I see with being able to swap out feats is that it can break immersion, especially with character concept feats like ...

I came up with the concept of giving people a feat slot progression like a wizard's spell slot progression, and then assigned levels to the feats to fit in feat level slots. Does that work? Again, what the fuck do feats do in that system? Same as before, you just get more of them but also indirectl...

Base Management and Building Base management requires building facilities in a limited area. Facilities cost funding and manpower days to construct. Bases have a limited area to construct in, and though excavations can increase the area by adding more floors, digging deeper and deeper become progre...

Creating and Improving Operatives When you best isn't good enough, get better. To generate a new operative, assign to each of the Seven Base Attributes a roll of 1d4+1 in order, then compute the Derived Stats. Follow up by giving the new rookie a suit of Last Chance Body Armour and an eight item ut...

Mirroring my posting in another forum. -------xXx------- Had a play test with my regular D&D group. They kinda like the game, though the regular DM insisted on making a non-standard character. This led to adding a new weapon to the game. A couple of rule changes are in order, and I need to quick...

It's not a joke. It's a feature!

Basically? I was going for something more advanced.

There are two standard Zzhetan invasion procedures when attacking inhabited planets. The first involves having the Armada repeatedly and strategically bombarding hard targets from orbit with precision to disable a society’s military, government and law enforcement before dropping pods full of combat...

Zzhetanz, as described by Mizrin. “I will insist you put those extra ‘Z’s in the written form. You sound more respectful when you pronounce all the ‘Z’s. “So, my race,” he says with a bit of trepidation. “Perhaps I should start with what creature we evolved from. I believe your planet has a similar ...

I made this map for the first playtest. It's a thin corridor that starts at the bottom in the forest and flows up into and through a facility. http://www.ulmf.org/bbs/picture.php?albumid=263&pictureid=16947 Faceless Goons Str 2, Per 2, End 2, Cha 2, Int 2, Agi 2 Acc 95, AP 7, Enc "null"...

And now here some pre-generated Characters as examples. I'm not entirely certain how I want to have characters level up, but I do want it more free-form than the class based system from Xcom. I'm also having trouble figuring out enough special abilities to fill out a chart like fallout 4 has so I'm ...

Know what. It's fine.

I appreciate your help.

Eclipse Phase is an RPG where your mind has been digitized, and you periodically back it up. When you die, your backup is installed into a new body. But it doesn't send you back in time before your death to try again. - I'm trying to wrap my head around making several time looping event segments to...

This is kinda like a childhood killing story/comic/joke (except Seindfeld wasn't a children's show), or comedy gold in the making. And for some reason I'm associating this with Diet Pepsi.

Most of my D&D games, most guards of human(oid) cities are 1st level, with a few more experienced members being of 2nd and rarely 3rd level. By the times they have enough XP to reach 4th, they've been retired or promoted to palace duty. 5th level constabulary are usually those with the unfortuna...

Um, wow... that's unexpected. Is this class in anyway balanced? What if I had an Ogre take this class?

OK, so I used the thread to make a character last night, and then I read the rules in the PDF and noticed some major differences. First off is that HP is calculated differently in this thread than it is the first time it is mentioned in the book on page 10, and then the same calculation that is in t...
