We fought orks last time, and fighting orks can get boring fast. You can't really have a proper modern military style gunfight when the enemy is more interested in running right up to you and cutting you in the face with an axe

the problem with playing IG is that most of the classic 40k enemies just slap your shit, and that is only fun with incredibly massochistic players (like myself). Most of my group is not like that

Should probably switch to Deathwatch or Black Crusade if they can't handle the IG life. Or maybe genestealer cults? Not quite tyranid but not quite human either, hey maybe even some mutants too if you like. I ran a Dark Heresy game once were there were mutants in an undercity plotting to destabilize a government using an old train filled with high explosives that happened to run near the government buildings.

Speaking of IG getting their shit slapped, I once had a daemon prince die in the first turn of a 40k game to a bunch of IG troopers. That was a soul crushing moment for me fo' sho'.

The only time you can stand on equivalency with MEQ's as an IG is when you've committed no small amount of Tech Heresy.

OH MY GOD HOW HAVE I NOT TOLD THIS STORY TO YOU CHUCKLEFUCKS YET

Okay, so a few weeks ago I joined a DnD game with a new GM. Sorta West Marches based, but apparently with a DM who is out to kill you in the most unfun ways possible, and he streamed it. Seriously he was so bad that the guy he sent me to direct questions to (you heard that right, jackass delegated answering questions about the game to one of the players) warned me he was a gigantic prick and I was going to have a bad time. I said I'd see for myself. Big mistake.

Long story short we slogged through the single worst session I've ever had the misfortune of going through. Six encounters and we came close to a TPK in four of them. Highlights included the GM taking my joking heckling seriously and trying to kill me the whole ride through, the entire party getting to death save after encounter two which was literally impossible to win, the GM leaving my character behind after I had internet trouble for ten minutes and disconnected, a kobold that was healed by damage and damaged by healing in a party with one level one cleric, some friends of mine from another game finding the stream and agreeing that the GM is an imbecile, and me surviving despite all his tryharding and not even fucking hitting level two from all my efforts.

I'd post the videos if he weren't a lazy fuck and had uploaded them

I have decided they will be facing the Severan Dominate as thier first deployment. Gonna be real gritty, i am going to punish them hard for not playing tactically, cause some damage and maybe kill a few players. We have been playing together for years and we have never really had a nice attrition game other than that one time we played aDnD 2nd ed. Going for the war is hell vibe

Goddammit I gotta stop having inspiration for games that I will never have the time/skill/motivation to make. So far I've got:

Illegal Aliens (actually in development): A card game about getting space aliens not-quite-legal jobs on Earth.
Freakshow Rodeo: Probably dice-centric. Build bizarre critters for opponents to try to ride!
Two as of yet unnamed games: One about running a wizard's library, the other a deck-building game themed around creating the most popular EDM song
And, as of fuckin' yesterday, "YES, QUITE": A vaguely Victorian game of competitive poshness. Be the most ostentatiously fancy noble at a party and rub your rivals' noses in it!

I don't really have very many terrible tabletop stories, but i have an absolute shitload of non awful ones. I have been playing RPGs with my group of friends for years, and we have played a list of games too long for me to really bring up in a single forumpost. We have a terrible habit of playing a game for a few sessions and then getting excited about a whole new game and dropping what we were doing previously, ad infinitum. We have actually been on a couple months hiatus until i got this Only War Campaign in gear

Currently gearing up for a Dresden Files RPG campaign featuring conflict between the White Council of Wizards and President Donald Trump.

Party roster:
Well-intentioned necromancer (me)
Harry potter fangirl turned actual (murderous) wizard
Former Denarian-American attorney (Not even reformed- his coin just got taken!)
Monoc Securities troubleshooter hired by the above as a bodyguard.


...When the necromancer has the strongest moral compass, something is either going very wrong, or very, very right.
In game, I play the A.I Firmware, the French cyborg C.U.R.I.E, Aubrie Allen, and the lizard scum Skulks-Through-Maintenance.

Sounds a lot like my group, I don't think we'll ever get past level 3 or even finish a campaign with the way we keep switching games.

I don't have many stories to tell myself, although I guess I can talk about a player that we call D² and the insanity surrounding him.

It all started some years ago when one of my friends, Johnny, wanted to DM a game of Pathfinder and he invited me and anyone I wanted to bring since he wasn't sure how many people were coming. So of course I invite my one friend, since he wanted to get into the whole tabletop scene. We show up to the guys house and knock on the door, 5 minutes later the DM opens up in nothing but a towel. Guy just got out of the shower, whatever ok fine it's all good.

So it's 4 players and the DM all in this cramped room and we're going around the table introducing our characters. We finally get to my friends character and he tells us his backstory as "Well my mom was a goddess and my dad was a dragon and he raped my mom and that's how I was born so now I'm trying to avenge my mom by finding this dragon and killing him." So one of the players asks something like "How do you know all this stuff happened before you were born." D²'s response is that is mother wouldn't stop talking about it. The rest of the group now proceeded to make jokes about how any large phallic shaped object would remind his character's mom of a dragon dick. "Oh son! Do you see that mighty redwood? It's almost as big as ya dad's dick!"

And forever onward my friend would be known as Dragon Dick, D². And now that I think about it there's a few stories I can tell about his roleplaying mis-adventures.

Haven't played it before. The Paranet Papers clarify the magic system a lot, though. (And, most importantly for me, add solid rules for necromancing.)

Oh yeah, i forgot about the Paranet Papers. Dresden is such a fun system. We played a much more straight laced serious game, and it led to some of the best character development for player characters out of any game i think we ever played.

I have a proposition. I am getting this Only War campaign together with the friends, but it is coming together very slowly and it is not scratching the GMing itch i have right now. Would people be interested in yet another doomed-to-fail forum game? So far i think the most successful one has been the play-by-post DnD5e one we had, because it requires very little time investment or commitment on the part of the players. Essentially you play as grunts in the Imperial Guard, the hammer of the emperor, random normal human dudes and gals given a shitty lasgun and flak vest and told to fight orks and demons and necrons and all other horrible shit. I feel like it would be a fun forum game just because of the sheer amount of attrition generally involved. I wanna run something brutal and unforgiving and it would give me a chance to test things before i use them with my real life group. This would also give us a chance to homebrew our own tg imperial guard regiment which would also be fun. Any interest?

I'm down for the attempt friendo. Played Only War once and that was some WWII thing where I made the GM mad by getting on top of a tank and setting enemy tanks ablaze with a flamethrower in a suicidal charge.

I would not get mad about something like that, just don't expect to survive exposing yourself on top of a tank like that. Cover is your friend

Its been like a year or two since this game but I was in a rogue trader game with cdb a long time ago. I was the navigator and he cosntantly wanted to fire me or kill me because i gameshat and derailed the session nonstop but he couldn't bring himself to since our characters wre in love IC (my headcanon). He tried to hire more naivgators to replace me so I could become disposable again and I killed so many of our own ships NPC navigators that the GM wouldnt let us hire any more because all the fucking noble navigagtor houses hated us

Well thats my story time hope u enjoyed

Taking the great weapon fighting feat on my 5e paladin was the best thing i ever did. I killed 4 guys in two rounds of combat, and they were not super weak minion types either. Our bard also used shatter to collapse a bridge containing about 8 enemies and the leader of a fire cult and drop the lot of them to their death in boiling magma, which was hardcore as fuck. Been purging heretics erryday, it is a good feeling

The basis of Pathfinder and other d20 systems is a target number, whether it be a difficulty class (DC) or an armor class (AC). The very basic premise is, to perform an action, you roll a twenty-sided die (D20) and add or subtract modifiers based on the situation and your character's abilities and equipment. If you meet or exceed the target, you succeed; if you get lower, you fail. Depending on the situation, the amount by which you succeed or fail may matter. What happens next, of course, depends on what you were trying to do.

Pathfinder tried to fix some of the glaring issues with 3e, and while it succeeded it also cause some new ones. Still a good system though, and far ahead of the abortion that was 4th edition. I played a few really fun 4th edition campaigns, but it always felt like they were fun in spite of the system, rather than fun because of the system.

I generally try not to think in terms of the system and more in terms of the game, though I will admit certain systems are better for certain things than others. Pathfinder is kinda my bread and butter because I've been with 3.5 so long, but I enjoyed 4e, what I played of it, and I'm looking forward to the 5e game that I'll be in coming up after I finish running Iron Gods.

That is the thing about RPGs, and even games in general. As long as you are playing them with cool fun people a literal pile of dog shit can be a fun game

In game, I play the A.I Firmware, the French cyborg C.U.R.I.E, Aubrie Allen, and the lizard scum Skulks-Through-Maintenance.

I've got a few Savage Worlds settings (Deadlands Reloaded, Savage Skies, Low Life, some permanently-frozen one I can't remember off the top of my head) that'd I'd like to play in, I used to have a lot of Shadowrun 4e stuff that I traded in when 5e came out (got the core and Run & Gun; gonna run a game eventually despite having never played it), I've got Eclipse Phase and the Transhuman book (played, is fun), some of the Star Wars d20 books, a couple nWoD books, some indie RPGs (DRYH, Apocalypse Prevention Inc.), almost every Mutants and Masterminds 3e book, most of the core PF books, classic (OLD) versions of Deadlands and Gamma World, the Iron Kingdoms core book, Traveller 4th core, and the core books of almost every 40K RPG.

I collect things.

I'd literally run through Antarctica butt-naked to play in any sort of supes game. Why does nobody ever run them? In Wild Talents there's rules for turning off the sun in the core rulebook as a power you can create yourself.

Do you think I'm joking?

It's hard as balls to run a game in which your players are literally super powerful

It means they can likely solve most things you throw at them within a few seconds of trying. Which then leads to either a half-assed plot or a frustrated GM, and players who end up either bored or having to put in way more agency than a normal tabletop. It's not a mindset most players are ready for, and most GMs aren't either
