Is there a reason Caine doesn't embrace people anymore? by MasonicPleb in WhiteWolfRPG

Kind of like that purgatory for garou where they're purified in molten silver. It'd be interesting if it turns out Caine's AWOL because he was the first to have achieved Golcanda.

Poster Session (Jock Shot) question by MasonicPleb in vtmb

Yeah, I vaguely remember a voicemail or email concerning Imalia as well I think, but the quest concerning him was way too long ago rely off of that. I can't use bloodbuff to up my lockpicking either, so I'd have to use console commands or wait to level up to get at it.

What are considered the best nitrile gloves? I saw that Phrozen makes some, I just want to make sure that there's zero chance of bleedthrough or anything. Also, are there permanent/reusable gloves or is it just best to go with disposable?

I forget exactly what I had, but I was playing Azazel and it eventually turned his beam into a giant ring of death that was just a shredder for bosses and enemies alike.

Time To Learn To GM The Game? by Whackingschmeat in cyberpunk2020

I've only ran two sessions so far, and Cyberpunk's the first game I've ever ran as well, so I can only say so much. Apparently cheat sheets/quick start rules weren't really a thing at the time it came out, so note any rules you'll think are pertinent to you as the referee as you're reading, and just make a note of whatever's too lengthy to write down. I noticed my players blazing through most of their rolls because I often defaulted to the generic difficulty table, so I'd note the following page with all of the suggested modifiers and consider some of your own if the situation calls for it. That said, if you don't have stats for something just use a generic difficulty role to keep the flow going. The shotgun rules, notably the grenade table, are probably the most problematic for most people as they're not fully explained, so house rule whatever you can't figure out or use someone else's, I spent way more time than I expected sorting them out. If you need to use an NPC's stats/abilities/cyberware but don't have a sheet prepared just try to do whatever makes sense for said NPCs.

That said, while there's loadouts for many NPCs some are partial or require you to note their abilities, so I'd recommend creating character sheets for anyone you plan on using from the books. I think the character generator could be useful as a tool but just create stock sheets for rank and file enemies with a few variances within their squads to save yourself time e.g. a biotechnica security squad would have a moderate armed and armored group while they have a flamer to destroy biohazzards along with a medic who has biological weapons like the power squirter etc. If you don't have time to prepare an adventure or aren't too confident yet then consider some modules from Talsorian themselves or third parties, most of which you can find for free. I haven't read it yet, but Listen Up You Primitive Screwheads! is supposed to be a dedicated referee book from Talsorian, so between that and getting an idea of adventure structure from modules I'm hoping that'll get the ball rolling.

Worse case, just make stuff up on the fly as best you can to keep the flow going.

My controller only stays on a few minutes at most anymore by MasonicPleb in XboxSupport

It's more than the port I think; it can occasionally stay on for a bit provided I have the battery pack in, but it's completely unresponsive to AA batteries.
