My party and I are going to spend the gold from our first quest on a large wagon. Aside from the obvious advantages of easier travel, being able to haul more loot, and having a flat elevated surface to throw down our sleeping bags at night, what are some ways we can make the most of this beautiful piece of equipment? Ideas I have so far:>Mounting shields on the sides to provide cover in combat >Mounted heavy crossbow turret for medieval drive bys>At higher levels, swapping out the ox for a flying creature to convert it into a mini-airshipPic semi related
>>92817061WFRP actually has rules for heavy weapons needing a mount like small cannon and bolt throwers.
>>92818115Unmanned, wet hides was the traditional anti-greek fire solution. More expensive and heavy solutions would include thin metal cladding. All assumes you aren't killed before getting into throwing range.

Why does Ursula have a clone?
>>92817555No luck on the Enchanted, but I'm very much looking forward to what sort of evil I can come up with in the form of a Hero deck.
Anybody get their hands on Deep Trouble today/yesterday? Did you play any games with it and how was the quality of the gameplay/product
>>92793176that's two victorious glimmers of herself teaming up to take on the wider multiverse.
>>92826744I'm the guy from earlier who was lamenting being unable to pre-order Deep Trouble... I actually had a Hallmark Christmas Miracle moment when I went to pick up my booster box. They told me that they had been sent a few extra copies of the game, if I wanted to try back later when the shipment arrived, which I was in the process of declining because my ride was waiting for me, when the phone rang. Turns out that the fed ex had just arrived in the back. So, I actully did get my copy!Unfortunately, I haven't had time to play it yet, but as for quality, I only have a few complaints: they're using the same garbage-y quality folding paper mats for Ursula's game board that they put in the starter sets, and the box it comes in is not meant to be reuseable, so unless you're tossing it a card box with the rest of your Lorcana, you'll probably want to pick up a separatebox for it. The damage counters and score markers are still the same pop-out style ones from the starters, which is fine, though the designs on these ones are the most sinister looking ones yet. The event cards look great and have a similar art style to the insert cards from the boosters, with Illumineers battling alongside glimmers against a giant, menacing Ursula. The card art for the custom Ursula deck looks good, mostly 'entangled' versions of existing cards, which you've probably already seen spoilers of. The Hei Hei card showing up randomly also made me laugh, and as a general note for set 4, they've really upped the quality of the flavor text in this set. It doesn't feel as forced as in previous sets, and actually hints at intriguing events, instead of "Lore, lore, ink spellbook flood!". For example, more than one Ursula was part of her rise to power, but she ultimately betrayed her other selves to become the alpha Ursula, and she hand picked the other glimmers she wanted to corrupt, being particularly interested in Anna, whom she lured into a storm by having Hans bait Olaf with...
>>92828292...Kristoff's missing hat, causing her to run off into a storm, which Elsa later disappates in an effort to find her sister. Meanwhile, Hades hints that while the Illumineers are busy fighting Ursula, his own plans are starting to take shape, possibly hinting that he will be the main villain of the next co op game? Very interesting stuff, and if any of you other anons glean any hints beyond the flavor stuff I mentioned here, I'd love to hear it. Any how, this is getting way to long, so to sum it up, Deep Trouble is presented more like a ccg box set than a separate board game, with about the same quality you'd expect from the average starter set.
Wasn't sure if I should bring this here or send it to /x/ so they could freak out while I made popcorn, but this seems a rl adventure hook, so:>1300 cases where the organs have survived even when all other soft tissues have decomposed. Some of these brains are more than 12,000 years old.>“Brains of this type, where they’re the only soft tissue preserved, have been found in sunken shipwrecks and in waterlogged graves where the bones are just floating,” says Alexandra Morton-Hayward at the University of Oxford. “It’s really, really strange.”Have we stumbled upon a sinister plan of our Undead Whale Overlords?https://www.newscientist.com/article/2423106-human-brains-have-been-mysteriously-preserved-for-thousands-of-years/
my guess is that the brain mostly holds together as a bundle of myelin which doesnt get decomposed because of the low temperatures and anoxic environment, while the rest of the cells lyse due to the osmolarity of seawater. doesnt explain skin though, maybe it's broken down chemically or the flesh eating bacteria cant survive on pure fat
fish can't get into the skull. >>92826354this anon is probably also right.
>>92826354Brains of the Windover bog bodies (7-8k years old) were also preserved in a similar way, despite the decomposition of the rest of the soft tissue.Scientists speculate that the preservation was the result of the low acidity of the peat pond (nearly neutral), the anaerobic environment, and the burial in the bog with 24-48 hour or less after death (before the brain could start to decompose).For shipwreck victims, I'd imagine you'd see a faster "burial" timeframe than the bog bodies and, so long as the body doesn't rise to the surface due to bloating, the brain would probably stay in anaerobic conditions.Not sure how the temperatures differences, differences in pH, or the freshwater/saltwater switch would affect things.
>>92828030there's some exceptionally well preserved shipwrecks in a lagoon somewhere in new zealand because the water is just too cold for the ship worms to survive
>>92826267Sea water contains a high saturation of ambient blue mana which is associated with coldness and stasis, living people perceive this as a vague sense of wonder and interest when swimming or diving, but over time a sunken corpse accrues blue mana which becomes concentrated in the brain, precluding the influence of black or green mana.
Okay, but what are you actually supposed to do in this setting?Like, it's cool and all, and kinda useful as a framing device to introduce various GURPS mini-settings (even if you have to contrive things like Yrth's quantum sargasso and kick THS out) but I just don't see how you turn it into a campaign.
Are you stupid? The book throws plothooks at you for every world and I'm pretty sure there's an entire section for running campaigns, how much more handholding do you need?
>>92827248No it doesn't?>The Patrol is keeping a weather eyeon this alternate, concerned that itcould slip into a global conflagrationendangering the generally lucrativetrade in fur and auroch meat WhiteStar enjoys. The Patrol also suspectsthat some Homeline traders have beenslipping the Swedes improvedfirearms and ship designs, andpossibly even blast furnaces and othercrucial war-fighting and industrialtechnologies. Tourists primarily visitwindswept Stuart Scotland, theimmense Lacota trading post nearFort-Nicholas on the upper Missi-ssippi, or the steam-powered cottonmills rising under the Pyramids ofEgypt. Centrum’s activities, if any, onArmada-2, remain mysterious,although the 1809 disappearance ofthe Spanish colony of Bahia Teresa (onthe site of Homeline’s Sydney,Australia) is suspicious to say the least.Is this supposed to be the plot hook? I go to an alternate universe to find the guy who's gunrunning to the 19th century Swedes?The campaign chapter is also mostly spent on "it could be action or thriller." There's no real connective tissue suggested (unless you count "they go to find out who Jack the Ripper is, then they go to find out if Caesar's wife really told him to stay home that day" as "connective tissue"). It doesn't even seem to meaningfully involve Centrum.
>>92827191I've not ever read it. I'm gonna go take a look, but if there is a section about plot hooks and adventure backgrounds I'm gonna be fucking mad...
>>92828178>>92827191GOD DAMMIT YOU DUMB MOTHERFUCKER, Every page is literally covered in adventure hooks.

How do you feel about the artwork in modern D&D as compared to the older editions?
>>92827967Where do you like to get your art from? I just used PDF24 to extract the images from most of my PDFs (3.5, PF1, and DSA). Got any other good art sources for color portraits and creature / NPC images?
>>92828596>2k to 5kThat'll get you enough for one artist working full time for a month in north america.If you're able to hire Asians who live in much cheaper countries, then you might et a good amount.But you'll get what you pay for quality wise, or you'll need to interact with people who don't speak English.

Calling all /mu/ refugees.I'm currently GMing a low fantasy magical version of late medieval Earth, with sword and sorcery vibes. I want to use some music to set up scenes, to introduce places and NPCs, to just have it playing in the background, etc. What do you guys recommend?
>>92820564Fief I-IV thank me later
>>92822708>here's the atmosphere and theme of my game, what music would fit?>AAAAAA FUUUUUUUCK I CANT I CANT I CAAANT, I need to know the numerals and paragraphs and breakdowns of grappling rules, how many dice to roll when picking a lock (and what number of faces each has) and if there's a dedicated mental stat to track fatigue from overland traveling first!!! I CANT THINK OF MUSIC OTHERWISE! HOW THE FUCK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO RECOMMEND MUSIC OTHERWISE?!?!?!Your brain is poisoned or you are profoundly autistic or both
>>92820595Little bit too geeky and synthetic for my current game, but I'll save it, maybe it fits another campaign later.>>92820608Based, I was listening to it now and I might steal some sounds for when they find a treasure, a hidden place or whatever.>>92820646Damn this is pretty nice, you can have pretty customizable sounds at the tip of your fingers for wherever the players decide to go. Shame it is paid for the full service tho.>>92820761This is crap.>>92822568Ramin Djawadi is pretty good, I might use The Lord of Light one for when the players discover that the Lady of Cardona is actually a witch.
