[QUOTE=HellSoldier;42434027]u wot? [editline]6th October 2013[/editline] sherly you must be joking[/QUOTE] The setting is alright. But the system is fucking retarded when it comes to combat.
wow ciaster 0/10 gm wont let me play my sax during combat terrible never playing pnp again with you
Eclipse Phase is a neat system but the setting is a little difficult for a lot of people to get to grips with. It's hard to think in a truly transhumanist way. Also the combat ain't great.

[B]Cyberpunk: Session 2: Mile High Club[/B] [url]http://pastebin.com/nsDHHSG9[/url] We're on a plane. Pilot announces we'll be landing soon. Hijackers take over, two approach Entropy and his sleeping brother the Orphaner. Hijacker demands Entropy come quietly. Saying nothing, he stands from his seat and awakens his brother with a stealthy nudge. Orphaner, with his buzzsaw hand, slices the jugular of Goon 1. Entropy pops Goon 2. Combat, people die, Entropy doesn't miss a shot. Lucha guy whatshisface knocks a guy out. GM ignores my roll of a 29 out of 30 on convincing the passengers of the plane to follow my command. Convince the miniboss goon guy in the cockpit to come with us, we jump out of the low flying plane's cargo hold. Me and Orphaner on my motorcycle, the others in an APC. Entropy lands smoothly, but still lost the front wheel of his bike. The NPC driver didn't fare so well on the landing, but nobody was hurt. End game on the tarmac.

[QUOTE=elowin;42432150]hey some people are into that[/QUOTE] Yeah, I've planned for that. There's a certain deity who grants a bonus depending on how many items of women's clothing you're wearing. And the Summoned Whores could, if paid enough, dress as whatever you want. [QUOTE=SiberysTranq;42432192]Speaking of things some people might be into Make sure there's some monsters you can defeat by seducing That's kind of important for this kind of game[/QUOTE] The game will mostly be about sapient races, not many "monsters". Of course, when you have Orcs, Trolls, Goblins and several Elementals as playable races, there's still much potential for seducing "monsters", if you define it vaguely enough. I'm also considering Dickwolves as a monster, just because I have an awesome character idea that can be summed up as four words: "Amazon raised by dickwolves". [QUOTE=elowin;42432342]more importantly make some monsters that will defeat you by seducing maximum awkward[/QUOTE] Again, monsters, no, but NPCs, yes. Although I may spec out tentacle monsters. But I am planning to have a pre-game session where we just get the players together, make characters, and come to an agreement about things that we aren't comfortable including in the game. I really am trying to avoid the awkward, here. [QUOTE=Rats808;42432358]And if you include succubi, you best include incubi too. :v: Rats, with your daily allotment of gay-man/straight-woman designated suggestions.[/QUOTE] "Cubi" are a playable race. This covers Incubi and Succubi. [QUOTE=lintz;42432369]This is turning into CoC - DnD edition.[/QUOTE] Yeah, the purely sex-based characters are probably going to treat combat the way CoC does. Not much I can do there. At least I'm mostly avoiding monsters - even though I'd personally be fine with it in the game, I realize enough people are completely weirded out by it that I'm keeping it minimal. I'm also keeping out the weird animal transformations, because I *am* weirded out by that. If someone wants to write a furry module for the game, they're welcome to, and I might even advise on the game design part, but I'm not doing it myself. [QUOTE=Justnobody;42433003]"Lubricate target" "Mass lubrication"[/QUOTE] Hmm, I had the "Arousal" spell, but lubricate might be better. Good call. [QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;42436930]"Orgasm on target" and "Summon ravenous fursuiter"[/QUOTE] First might be too OP, but it's not a bad idea. Not doing the second.

[QUOTE=MeltingData;42437619]"Summon Ravenous Lesbians" "Change Sexuality"[/QUOTE] Maybe to the first (it would have to be a high-level spell at least, so not in this first session), good idea on the second. Really, though, I'm looking for some less blatantly sexual crap. I think I have enough of that by now.
"Quieten/Silence Conscience"
[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;42437808]"Quieten/Silence Conscience"[/QUOTE] ... I'd better make that one a free spell.
[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;42435566]Because polymorph. [editline]6th October 2013[/editline] Dragons are basically equivalent to Zeus.[/QUOTE] I always believed they were capable of reproducing with virtually everything because they're the most inherently magical creatures, like they're above the rules -- in D&D anyway. The way some of the older books describe them basically makes them sound like sentient magic given living form. In 3.5 they specifically say that dragons are such inherently magical beings that their mere presence bends reality and creates phenomena in the local lands.

[editline]asfd[/editline] I would love to get into D&D though. I've played a bit of pathfinder with a few friends, and lots of Baldur's gate alone. Any recommendations on getting into D&D?
In other, completely random news, after making about half a dozen Exalted characters I've finally made one I really like And most of that is entirely due to the fact that it's possible for Casteless lunars to basically become The Thing with just a little forethought and a lot of care And it is, in theory, possible to avoid the downsides, since gaining Thing-powers is completely separate from the mutations that make everyone hate you, you could probably come back from it if you get blooded after the fact and thus save yourself from the main downsides of doing so, and since it doesn't say anywhere that having such done to you removes the powers you should be able to retain those abilities, even if you can't get more of them most of them are really, really cool, so even only one or two would be worth it in the long run provided you manage to avoid other crippling mutations on the way Which, considering you have to limit break 5 times in a zone that already makes you much more likely to mutate to have it happen, would be a pretty difficult proposition I still really want to try it though, just to see what happens. Because shapeshifters are rad in general
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;42436930]"Orgasm"[/QUOTE] oh christ yeah how could i forget about that also, make it confer massive penalties to everything, so that orgasm can be used as a combat spell, like in shadowrun

But yeah you can totally be the Thing who is also a Xenomorph, lunars are rad in a manner transcending practicality.
I've finally got into an Online session with my friend. I'm playing a Full Orc Fighter 2h and he's playing a Changeling Dread Necromancer. This gon be fun.
So Traveller's combat is a lot more dangerous than I initially thought it was.

Alright, I have a few questions for your guys; 1. When designing a "puzzle" dungeon (think something along the lines of Zelda style puzzles), how hard is too hard? Also, what is a "good" length for a dungeon on average, assuming a party of 4? 2. For my campaign that I'm planning, I have an overworld map in the making. How far does the average party travel in a day, assuming they are on foot? I ask these questions because I wish to run a short campaign based around the concept that the heroes have exactly 30 days to complete their quest or else they risk catastrophic failure. I wish to make sure that the campaign is doable with a safe amount of time left over for the players to adventure and make mistakes.
