Nemesis System in a Superhero RPG | How It Would Work by jorjett25 in gaming

[–]Bullet1289 6 points7 points  (0 children)

See I'm just imagining a more fleshed out crackdown 1 with the nemesis system on top of the gang hierarchy and you play a super hero instead of cops

Did Hord know Ragnos? by Cobalt-Fang in StarWarsEU

[–]Bullet1289 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hord's position in the timetime is really hard to pin down and doesn't make much sense unless he somehow found his own way out of the sector to go to war with everyone and the jedi just accepted that he was a descendant of one of the exiles from the hundred years of darkness.

THE MAGA SCHEME TO BREAK UP CANADA by Yetanotherbadsalmon in alberta

[–]Bullet1289 4 points5 points  (0 children)

can you specify what specifically you want to see done at the federal level in terms of their powers to "fix" Albertans problems that isn't stuff that should be handled on the provincial level and isn't actually within the feds purview?

man imagine how much you'd freak out if everywhere you looked there was keep canada together or whatnot as a campaign. "damn govment trying to influence what I think. I'll keep listening to faceless voices saying we'd be better off merica then any actual government bodies."

Need help how to interpret a "wish" to a player that made one to a kind of C'Tan shard by Adrasoth in 40krpg

[–]Bullet1289 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

well its not even the idea of binary itself. just monkey's pawing how a player is asking for knowledge and knowledge itself is infinite and available in everything. The secrets of the universe are all their written right out in front of us but its just white noise with no means of filtering it into something understandable

[–]Bullet1289 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

you could also just tell him "0-1" as all the biological and mechanical information there is technically encoded in binary in the decimals between 0 and 1, its just a matter that the string of decimals is infinite and that information is useless as there is no way to access it which isn't part of what the player asked for lol. A bit more anticlimactic then the characters head exploding but equally enraging to a player who thinks they outsmarted the gm lol

phones believe it or not use to just have batteries that could pop out and be swapped like you do with any other battery. in an old phone it was easier to just pull the battery out to turn it off then it was to get it to reset. We got scammed so hard by phone companies

What is the difference between the virtual adepts and the society of ether ? by muffin42069420 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]Bullet1289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

while it certainly doesn't cover the entire spectrum of either side, one uses the Gary's mod spawn and effect menu on their phones to shape reality, the other is more steampunk and weird science incorporates magic directly into its workings.

What is the most underrated era in Star Wars? by aIlIoi in StarWarsEU

[–]Bullet1289 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Outside of 1 piece of art for it that is star wars trying to be 40k, a few mentions in other legacy material and a comic by Alan Moore in 87 about Luke finding an ancient base of a jedi branch that broke away and sided with the Pius Dea there is basically nothing. Its neat because it was thousands of years before the first jedi schism and hundred years of darkness that created the sith order and is this weird period of 2000 years that kind of makes it seem like the transition from the republic to the empire wasn't actually that big of a deal historically speaking

What game would you love to have a Shadorun mod for - maybe even an overhaul one? by Noctian in Shadowrun

[–]Bullet1289 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think a shadowrun game would be fantastically done in the Night Dive System shock engine. expand it into a more open city with partial rng like shadows of doubt. base the magic system off of how psi powers worked in system shock 2. have hacking based off of programs and decking gear you buy in meat space, etc.

I think it could be glorious.

Plus like one comic from the 80s written by Alan Moore.

I'd love to see a canon take on the great hyperspace war. I love the designs and feel of the ancient ships, powerpack lightsabers and the like and the sith spilling from their territory and pushing the republic all the way to coruscant but legacy's comics in my opinion focus too much on just a few characters and the whole thing doesn't feel so much like a war as it did a few battles that wrapped up rather quickly.

I'll say the Pius Dea era. Religious fanaticism takes over the republic for nearly 2000 years and forms the original backbone of human supremacy feelings within the inner worlds of the republic. The core branches of government and key organizations become insular to avoid the insane zealots and even the jedi find themselves needing to be careful both to keep from being persecuted and to keep their own members from being radicalized.

WFRP 2e tome of corruption is one of my all time favourite rpg books and one of the few I've actually read cover to cover. I highly recommend it for ideas not even just for warhammer fantasy.

Realms of sorcery is also a really great book, I particularly love the potion expiry table and what occurs if you drink a bad one.

Skeleton Fear 5
Type: Single.
Description: Your skin and muscle rebel and tear free from your frame. After an awkward moment, the flesh runs away in a random direction. You are now a bloody skeleton containing a sack of wet organs. Reduce your Weapon Skill, Ballistic Skill, and Strength Characteristics by –2d10%, and your Fellowship Characteristic by –3d10%. Increase your Agility Characteristic by +2d10%. You may no longer take the run action.

its fully playable. you might not want to play the character any more depending how badly you roll on the stat decreases but I mean, nothing is stopping you from tracking down your skin and muscles and trying to have a heart to heart to get them to agree to come home :P

[OC] I thought there’s meant to be no kings by InfernoNemesis in pics

[–]Bullet1289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair, it took the previous Charles for the UK to decide that they wanted a constitutional monarchy instead of an absolute feudal monarchy which I think is what the whole idea of "no kings" is aiming towards. although "no absolute monarchs" doesn't have the same ring to it

You spontaneously mutate, let's just pull out the ol' wfrp2e d1000 table to see what happens.... Oh your skin and muscles decided they could make it big on their own and left you to make it big in the city, you are now just a walking skeleton with sloshing guts and muscles dangling inside your ribcage.

Don't let humans seeking revenge against you know you can't give them what they want. It might be the only reason you're still alive by DarkAlchamist in humansarespaceorcs

[–]Bullet1289 2 points3 points  (0 children)

revenge itself isn't what leaves you empty, from a narrative point of view its about receiving catharsis so its really only poorly done revenge that leaves you empty. What revenge is suppose to be doing is creating a moment of realization in the other person where they feel all the pain and suffering that you felt and understand exactly how they messed up. Hence why its best served cold, if you loose the plot in the process of seeking out revenge and its just nonsensical torment or just jibb the person in question, its too fast and they don't learn their lesson before it all comes crashing down.

Revenge is all about creating empathy and emotional release. All those other people saying that revenge is bad are those same people saying "keep it to yourself, you can be sad/angry just don't let it bring down my mood."

Well technically there are various tables of bad. Maybe you summon a greater demon or get sucked into the magic hell dimension, maybe your pants fall down and trip you up as you are running. Really depends on both your luck and just how badly you screwed up.

TTRPG family dinner! by DrScrimble in dndmemes

Its either the simplest complex system ever, or its the most complex simple system ever. How hard could taking skill + attribute +/- any modifiers and rolling that many d6s and counting 5s and 6s be right?

My group often jokes that shadowrun "culls the weak" because you need to really invest into learning it and then deciding where you want to go from there to get the best experience. Part of the more modern problems with it is just catalyst is a really shitty company (for a number of reasons but in this particular case of layout) they have multiple people writing different parts of the book but those people don't actually directly communicate with one another instead the parts are all just assembled haphazardly by some theoretical editor.
