With the color scheme, I think it's the elbow armor, crotch armor, and upper arm armor blending in with the cloth that throws it off. You could try painting those parts the same blue as the other armor.

Are the Tempo/Measure bits restricted to swords and daggers? How do halberds and spiked chains fit in either way? The principles apply. Tempo = time to finish an action so a long halberd that has just swung may take longer to recover but it can then strike with the butt end too. Spiked chain, flail...

That's all I'm saying about politics for this year, thank you

Big 'Ed is wonderfully hideous in a good grotorky way

The massive galactic Zentraedi Maeltrandi space war with Earth being a seemingly insignificant spec but holding the power of culture is a neat angle for Performance skill characters

was just thinking, because movement influences attack modifiers, having emotion or 'magic compulsion' effects that force movement (hate, fear) is now a noticeable thing in your game

Is Napoleonic style artillery & rifle (wands?) block warfare also happening with this setting?

I listened to a real play run by Pondsmith himself, and the world is apparently supposed to be a jokey pastiche of dated pop culture references in nonsense robocop land. Not my favorite worldbuilding! You mentioned there were less concretely defined characters than the fingers in one hand, so perha...

Is the wall suppoe to be expanding something or keeping something in or out? Otherwise it's like a trash pile of the faithless yeah?

now for the important question relevant to PC's... does the wall have HP and hardness to interact with?

Well if I were to revamp the Cataclysm and not change much of the Dragonlance present day plot... The King-Priest causes the cataclysm with his lust for power, maybe some Evil gods egged him on and got in the way of the goodly gods intervening. The people think the Goodly goods did it and turn their...

Thanks for the review, so Movement being a core attribute, is it super crucial or do you just leave it at average and just assume everyone is within range of stylish cover dashing? Strict measurement of movement sounds like a chore especially when there's helicopters and tanks firing a kilometer awa...

has anyone done a Good look at Cyberpunk RED yet?

Who turns those souls into bricks? A specific god? Well all the gods are real, there's GOOD and EVIL ones to reward GOOD and EVIL deeds, so there's really no reason to reject all of them. Dragonlance is best thought of as a story like Bad Dudes or Combatribes, a vessel for the main dudes to fight an...

Digimon Last Evolution Kizuna was really touching, especially as it's a series I grew up on. It concludes the original Digimon anime series. Interestingly it's followed up with a TV anime reboot with the same characters. Kinda like Evangelion Rebuild (though the latter may be a direct sequel where t...

It does so very much right. Possibly the best zombie movie yet made.

I was fortunate enough to watch it not even knowing it was a zombie movie, I just heard it was a good Korean Thriller

It's great great great

Oh I mean if it was based off of some real world "types of arguments" thing, but I've been reading up on that regardless

Was After Sundown's categories for types of Arguments ('contentions of reason' and 'appeals to rhetoric') based on some existing categorization or an original work based on that stuff out there?

Is there anything really glaringly missing from it?

Is there art from old stuff that's Public Domain now?

Oh yeah DeadManWalking, my conclusion from those previous threads about dice pool melee combat alpha strike problem is to make the engaging (the "I move/charge the guy from X distance away") alpha strike less accurate than following attacks in measure (the 'base to base' range). Action poi...

Wonder how the sodomy law interacts with polymorph and magic girdles

I've played Kill Team with exp, but that was leveling up your dudes and picking skills, no territorial control. Looking for a game where your campaign involves capturing territories too or doing something interesting outside of "you have more exp for skills and more currency for gear" like...

Are there factory jobs for non magic users in this setting? That "human workers replaced with magical labor" bit with hordes of unemployment feels more like modern days than the "hordes of punch card laborers get eaten by the mammon machine" image that Industrial Revolution inspi...

Thinking about Action Points in turn based games (video games too) like you have 5 AP and movement costs 1 but shooting costs X Old thread on it: http://tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?t=50335 My feelings on action points like that is... they're not necessary and you're better off with everyone having set a...
