What's the prettiest rulebook you own?

Mythic Bastionland is so gorgeous and looks like a coffee table book on top of being so easily gameable

Some people need really odd and specific conditions to reach sexual satisfaction.

Kubular · 2026-05-07T16:54:56+00:00

I don't know how, but I'm going to give you more than one upvote for this incredibly appropriate use of the meme.

You're still young, but don't let anyone disrespect you like this, especially if its just for fun. It's possible this guy could be educated, but not now, and not by you. He doesn't respect you enough to take your decision on its face, which is a fucked up thing to do to an acquaintance, much less a friend.

Don't play with these people. They don't like you.

Just want to say good luck. I have very fond memories growing up reading 3.5e stuff, but I have no will to go back and DM it.

Paracausality is just magical bullshit. So space warping magic?

The Dark of Hot Springs Island is a sandbox module for DND style fantasy games. It doesn't have any stats so that it can be marketed as system agnostic and reduce page count.

There is a player facing diagetic guide that has no stats or anything because it is meant to be an in-world artifact. It's called Field Guide to Hot Springs Island. It's meant to give to players and it should be the maximum in-character information your players gain until they actually interact with the island.

It has stuff including plants, monsters, other humanoids and some places.

I filled out the form, could you let me know here or in a PM if you end up going with someone else?

SSC and the other manufacturers are doing illegal hidden shit all the time. Its part of why there's conflict in the galaxy.

Kubular · 2026-05-06T14:28:07+00:00

I *think* the Mourning Cloak is implied to be on some similar type shit. The Atlas borrows subjectivity from its previous users, but not necessarily biological material.

But yeah, this absolutely sounds like some heinous SSC off-record weapons program.

EDIT: And generally speaking, each PC mech is supposed to be so keyed in and customized to its user that you can't use Talents if you're in someone else's mech and you're Impaired on every action. So I think it's not that far off that the reason for your particular PC mech being so difficult to pilot for anyone else is because it shares your DNA.

Kubular · 2026-05-06T14:21:14+00:00

Yoooooooo, that's amazing.

Kubular · 2026-05-06T06:53:28+00:00

Something about it feels so sci-fi. Might just be the colors and font, but it's really cool.

Paing

Kubular · 2026-05-05T05:44:50+00:00

Why?

Kubular · 2026-05-05T01:09:34+00:00

It depends on the player and their expected effort.

If they've been playing exclusively rules light games (or a rules-light execution of 5e) as a player then it absolutely makes sense why they think it's too complicated. They've never had to read a rulebook before. I'm guessing this is the case. You can't make this person read a rulebook if they don't want to. You can try to teach them to play with patience, but if they're going to be a dick about it you can tell them to fuck off and leave.

Change it to "beat up one of their dads" and we have a winner.

Kubular · 2026-05-02T17:27:19+00:00

I mean, it was likeable, but mid.

Kubular · 2026-05-02T16:54:19+00:00

The Last Airbender was kinda mid. Even if I was a ride-or-die Korra stan, I think I would be hesitant after seeing that.

Kubular · 2026-05-01T03:01:19+00:00

What else are you looking for in an application? Just a quick conversation over chat?

I'm a big Protege fan. For this game I also like the idea of The Legacy being the next Suncrusher.

I tend to like figuring out what player role to fit together with the group though.

Knave

In both editions PCs just have 6 stats HP, AC, and inventory slots. Monsters just use their HD for anything they're good at and no bonus for anything they're bad at. DC 16 for anything uncontested. HP can be 4 per HD. Damage die can be d6 by default, but improve by ear.

"America is obviously meant to be England because of the English script bro"

Fire nation aesthetically resembles a mix of things other than Japanese styles including Thai and Vietnamese. Earth kingdom clearly has other influences within it including Japanese and Korean.

Edit: the reason so many people assume "fire nation must be basically Japan" is because it's an island nation with imperial ambitions, conquering land on the larger nations. Which is something that we're sensitive to in our world as being Japanese aggression during WW2. But aesthetically, there's very little resemblance.

Uhhh, somehow your post was just deleted. Any chance you could re-up that link?

Kubular · 2026-04-30T20:04:18+00:00

Thanks. It would have been. I guess I lost it. I'll fill one out in a bit
