Hey friends.
I'm converting Only War to my custom setting and for this I must do pricing. I'm horrible at control of money to/from players and pricing is either too low, too high, or too scattershot--what's a good way of going about assigning prices in general, from swords to gun to ships to houses, has anyone written a guide on this?

Eyeball it. When in doubt go with more expensive.
Who owns those breasts?
Bodysuit boobs are objectively best.
...
I'm not sure.
Whats the sauce.
> skintight bodysuits
Is it weird if I think opening the bodysuit up to show cleavage ruins the aesthetic?
no, thats part of the appeal, no skin showing and yet you can see every curve.

Curse! My one weakness: Tits!
See that's what I've been doing and the players all but invariably wind up rich and powerful, like I'm not trying to poo-poo anyone's parade but I just lack the ability to price shit out of my ass--I can pull stories, hooks, mobs, characters, entire sessions out of my ass but not prices that don't have my players asking

I need more bodysuits in my game. I mean, daaaang.
Shame getting them in fantasy is near impossible. Put them in and it's obviously just because it's a fetish.
No no, I totally get where you're coming from.
As with most things, the answer is research. Find out how much similar things cost in a analogous real-world time and place and use that as a guide.
Failing that, just look it up in GURPS and use that.
How is your name upside down?
There is a bodysuit in Pathfinder made out of a fist-sized glob of liquid metal that can be summoned on and off at will.
Elven Chain is also commonly portrayed as a bodysuit.
Include a bodysuit assassin in the next city that loves a man in the guard, but can't really commit because of her job. The guardsman is identified by a rare type of flower she gives him to wear on his breast, which she uses to identify him during her work.
Make her Ivy-tier busty with Taki-tier bodysuit, or maybe small-breasted but fit for dem abs.
Danks for the full pic.
Do you rely on the fact that sci-fi bullets will trump any attempt at metal armor, space age latexium that hugs the body and yet absorbs all energy directed at it, kinetic or otherwise, except for some minor boob jiggling? Or energy shields?
I think he's upset because it's a poisoned well trope for fantasy gaming, even though it is a fairly often depicted (and yes mostly in the animes). Even if you could justify it it's automatically considered pervy.
For whatever reason it's still getting a pass in scifi.
God I love latex bodysuits.
Just to be clear OP, you aren't using Only War's req system?
I say bodysuits are largely stealth suits, with some liquid crystal bullshit for decent melee protection Mild jiggling included.
Shields are in belt and harness emitters draped casually over them all tacticool.
Eh, basically this. Sci fi has it as a trope, so adding catsuit assassins is sort of legit. Plus handwavium can make them practical in-universe.
Adding tight leather and living metal suits in fantasy just... doesn't work quite as well. I mean you can do it, but it's somehow more blatantly fetishy. I don't quite know why, only that it is.
So how much armor do you like over your bodysuits?
Personally, I prefer a few bits and pieces, but not covering too much.
The trick is to never touch on her bodysuit, which isn't hard when you're not explicitly describing how the moonlight shimmers on the full globes of her ass.
When a player wants to buy something, ask them how much they'd be willing to spend on it.
Then add 50%.
Contrasting things can be hot. As you said, showing everything, yet nothing at the same time.
The problem is, there isn't many systems that handle wealth well. D&D variants work somewhat when it comes to pricing difference between +2 and +3 gear, but don't make any sense whatsoever when attempting to price daily life expenses.
Shadowrun kind of works for wider spectrum of market but is a bit too distant to draw paralel with 40k.
That leave two options:
- use real life approximations
- download Necromunda rules and work from there for weaponry
For everybody else - let us reminisce of things almost decade ago... hitomi.la
Obviously once you kill the dragon and butcher the corpse for scale armor you want it as tight fighting as possible to gain the dragon's natural resistances without worrying about anything slipping past seams!
Why is this even an issue I'll never understand.
Properly shaped custom fit plating and you're good to go. Extra thicc jodhpurs extra.
>Huge breasts in a bodysuit
>Wide hips in a bodysuit
>Both
>Neither
Which do you prefer, lads?
It's all good man. Flat, boobles, thick, slender.. it's all so very, very good.
Butt is important though. Gotta have a good butt.
Yeah, I'm just gonna pick the suit.
That isn't a bad idea, but they'd catch on and you'd catch hell quickly enough. They'd also adapt by lowballing their prices with you. This would reduce the viability of the strategy long term, however you could possibly get by if you play it off as haggling. That might get a bit old fast, too, though.
>Butt is important though. Gotta have a good butt.
As long as the ass is decent, any and all work.
I prefer both, for what it's worth.
'preciated.
Funny how no thread I make can garner attention without porn OP but it's better than letting 100% of my threads slide off the face of the board. Especially my homebrew system.
Clever, but also my players will tend to C through that.
A, B and C. + Big Butts Don't Lie.
Only one answer
>abs
Wow the dub is weird after getting used to subs.
I like QT's modulator though.

Everything that would have gone to the chest, goes to the ass instead.
>you will never touch a large, tight bodysuit booty
"Boobs are for life, but Ass is hometown."
There's this amazing thing called prostitution, user. It was invented about 200,000 years ago precisely for fixing the sort of dilemma you find yourself in.
So, about them pricings...
Prostitutes don't have good asses, especially the types walking the street.
You need to get yourself an escort for some high-quality sex, but those can be up in the thousands and aren't guaranteed sex.
worth noting the original request doesn't explicitly specify gender of bodysuited booty
It's not impossible. It's just not going to happen.
...shit, that's even worse.
Are you talking about the prostitutes or OP's question?
Also did the thread go off-topic about bodysuits or is it on topic to the image and not the actual text?
OP made the classic blunder.
Also both I guess. Post pricing lists and bodysuits.
Ideally post content on bodysuit prices.
I didn't even realise I had clicked on this thread.
Those breasts truly are hypnotic.
The hips and butt don't have to be amazing but they have to be good. As long as a girl has a good butt her breasts can be any size. If the butt is lacking large boobs will seem shallow and unbalanced and small boobs will imply a spooky form. Whether you like pumper her pooper or not, the bum is the core aesthetic balance of a lady's body and should be respected.
