Last time on Song of Swords: $25,000 get! New LaTeX version! More new characters for the tournament. More interview with Jimmy & Claymore Whether filipinos are the mexicans of the east or the niggers of the east
Song of Swords is a a tabletop RPG centered around realistic medieval fightan' with a ludicrous variety of weapons and fighting styles, centered around a dice pool system. It's currently in beta, and can be used for both fantasy and historical games. Kickstarter is happening NOW we are kicking ass baby!
Call of the Void: Ballad of the Laser Whales is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.
MEGA folder containing current version of the game and all supplementary materials. Note that the latest version of the game is v1.9.9 but with additional supplements. It's NOT what's currently on Opaque's website, because Jimmy is Jimmy. mega.nz/#F!S89jTT7J!ozFi9Gv
Here's a wiki detailing SoS's fantasy setting, getting filled up bit by bit as Jimmy reveals more details: tattered-realms.wikia.com/wi
There's also a roll20 room where new players are encouraged to try the rules, test new rules, and find game breaking issues: app.roll20.net/join/346755/ If you're looking to learn, post here in the thread. We also play Guy Windsor's card game Audatia in the room.
Last Thread: The Legend throws commies out of helicopters.
It's just your computer being weird. I went back a couple of threads, and I could copy it fine.
Cameron Barnes
You running Ubuntu too?
Ethan Gutierrez
Win10, LO version 5.1.6.2 x64. Might be a bug in Ubuntu LO.
Wyatt Gutierrez
Thanks for the link! What'd he make it for?
James Morales
I figured it out, I have to right click and select "paste special" instead of just Ctrl+V. Fucking Ubuntu.
Liam Bailey
1. Stop using Ubuntu and use a real distro like Debian or something 2. Stop using Libreoffice and use something like kate for people more familiar with graphic editors
Eli Clark
The Roll20 link is also incomplete.
Logan Reed
WAIT WHAT WE KICKSTARTER NOW? WHEN THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN

Joshua Rogers
KATE is not a Word replacement you goof.
Jordan Ward
The OP's out of date, we're actually at $26,000.
Samuel Hughes
Can't recall, think it was some gonzo civil war thing, hence why I did the minie ball and revolver stats. I never heard much back from other than that the system worked in play.
Andrew Morales
>keeping OPs in order requires Word Are you kidding me?
Blake Jones
Well, since you were enough of a cunt to tell somebody to change their OS, it was totally reasonable to assume you were meaning that they should dump LO entirely.
Isaiah Richardson
Hi, John Galt.
I got involuntarily switched to Ubuntu, I'm pretty shit at it, and I'm not really familiar with graphic editors, unless you count MSPaint.
Julian Smith
ha ha ha ha
Gavin Evans
LO is kind of shit though anyway. >enough of a cunt user it was meant in actual good faith. Ubongo is shit.
kate is notepad++. >MSPaint No by graphic editor I mean "a text editor that has an actual interface instead of being run through terminal".
Jimmy is laffin Add another Stretch Goal desu, make it tactics or something.
Jackson Myers
Whatever happened to Galt anyway?
Nolan Ortiz
He's smuggling guns from Mexico to Yugoslavian ultranationalists.
Kayden Brooks
He's a house flipping vampire, he went down south to buy Mexican cartel victims' corpses to feed upon or something
Kayden Phillips
He's on vacation, doesn't even know the kickstarter happened.
I miss not having to use WINE to open .exes
Christian Rivera
Ah, I see bullshit
Dominic Jackson
>LO is kind of shit though anyway. Better than OOo.
>Ubongo is shit >mfw the Linux distros I have lying around are Mint 17.1, Ubuntu 12.10 and 10.04, DSL 4.4.10, and Linspire 6.0.17 Ubuntu can't be the worst of those.
Daniel Flores
>better than OOo But OOo is garbage. EVERYTHING is better than OOo.
>Ubuntu can't be the worst of those ...I mean...right but why not just use, again, a real distro like Debian?
Owen Wright
What's wrong with Mint? I'm not the guy actually running Ubuntu, I just have a bunch of OSs lying about. Others I have about include Windows ME, Win98SE, OS/2 Warp 4, eComStation 2.1, Windows 3.11 + MS-DOS 6.22, OpenVMS 6.2, and OpenVMS 7
Charles Thompson
>Mint Nothing really, it's a good beginner's distro >3.11 Windows What the fuck? Do you just archive ancient OSes?
William Kelly
Hey Jimmy, you catamite who is second in all things to Lucius Tiberius. Is there anyone on the planet in tattered realms who could be considered analogous in greatness to Cyprus I, King of the Four Corners of the World?
Noah Perez
I like that Win3.11 is the one you're confused about, not fucking OS/2 or OpenVMS.
Sebastian Williams
They're all old as shit, that's just the one that I saw first.
Connor Turner
Hey, ECS2.1 is from 2011.
Bentley Campbell
epic
Blake Johnson
Not vacation, it's definitely business.
Austin Garcia
Alright lads, news. I'll not be able to run the tourney tomorrow, but! I have the next 7 days off of work, so I'll be around to host Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Hopefully this doesn't screw anyone up, and maybe this will allow more people to make it.
What the fuck joints are you going to thrust at, the ones between individual fibers?
Juan Cook
Joint thrust is thrusting at the joints of armour, where there's a gap so you can move. Not where there's joints in the body, genius.
Aaron Hernandez
>joint thrust between individual fibres get on my level, i joint thrust between individual atoms
Carson Mitchell
the huge ass gap
thrusting at the gaps of armor, yeah, like this
Unless you think quilted coats are actually knee-length dresses?
Josiah Green
fucking names
Zachary Allen
gotta agree. his dick and thighs are way open.
Logan Young
>a fan artist's depiction of in-game armor is what we should base rules off of
Please shut the fuck up.
David Allen
>not answering the question
Please don't shut the fuck up and answer it. What do quilted coats look like that you can't thrust around them but you can thrust into a couter or gauntlet?
Elijah Rivera
Okay faggot, if I recall Jimmy's explanation of joint thrust, it's that you are physically using the joint of armor to guide the thrust into the desired point. You can't do that with cloth, obviously, you fucking mongoloid.
Hudson Myers
Use Vim or Emacs and write things in LaTeX instead of Office replacements :^)
Charles Torres
You are an angry person, who seems to blow a gasket when someone says something against your worldview. Of a game. Can you provide proof of Jimmy's explanation?
Eli Martinez
Like this I guess?
Cooper Bell
That design has a huge gap there though, so maybe it needs a Half Armor on Groin?
That's given it's an accurate depiction, though, which seems incorrect from the replies in the thread
Also >no mention of the LaTeX Ballad PDF in the OP Das ist ein Fehler, du Homofürst
Carson Barnes
My question, beyond why you think that makes sense, is why would you even want to do that? You joint thrust at half strength with +1 tn and two activation.
You literally do more damage just attempting a regular thrust against quilted. At best you can Good Form it with Thin Blade and have Accurate to only have to suffer the half strength.
Kayden Brown
You mistake annoyance for blowing a gasket. Did I use too many naughty words for you? My mistake, fuckboy. No, I cannot provide proof, because the conversation was over voice. Regardless, the logic is there. If you want that level of precision without a weak point, grapple like the homosexual you present yourself as. >That's given it's an accurate depiction, though, which seems incorrect from the replies in the thread
It is not, though it's good art nonetheless.
Samuel Ortiz
>why would you even want to do that? You joint thrust at half strength with +1 tn and two activation. well it doesn't say this in joint thrust, but if you half-sword, you do it at full strength and you don't get the +1 tn because you get thin blade so it does cost 2 activation but you would ignore 3 armor
Luis White
Half-Sword joint thrusts are full STR, making a katana better at piercing plate than an ahlspiess at times
Nolan Stewart
You jump to calling people mongoloid and fuckboy at mere "annoyance"? You really are an angry person. Are you actually angry at yourself? It's okay, you're not alone, you can get help.
Noah Martin
You seem to jump to pseudo-psychological analysis to deflect conversation away from your own failings. Could you tell me about your mother?
Hudson Wright
Not him, but you're acting like a mongoloid fuckboy right now.
Parker Martin
>You jump to calling people mongoloid and fuckboy at mere "annoyance"?
>He doesn't want to play the real version What's the matter? Scared of little old me?
Adrian Murphy
That isn't the real Gilgamesh, don't post a shitty faker
Connor Jones
>The Joke >Your Head What else would it be?
Brody Brown
I call myself a mongoloid and a fuckboy if I forget to carry the one.
Some people just aren't very touchy with regards to profanity, it's a culture thing.
David Sullivan
well that's more like a normal gambeson and not a coat. if by coat we here mean, like, a COAT coat.
Andrew Martin
Well why don't you try find a better image fuccboi?
Daniel Cook
>boyfucker coffee or jimmy?
Charles Sanchez
think you are misunderstanding my meaning.
Luis Cook
Maybe. Are you making some sort of technical joke?
Angel Myers
No he's saying that's not a coat, that's just a gambeson, so it's not representative of what's being talked about besides it looks like just fabric, or brigandine, not actual 10- or 20-layer quilt
Cooper Sanders
>well, Jimmy's the one who fucks around with the rules.
Hunter Sanders
this kinda coat
Dominic Powell
...I think it'd be easier to edit in things from Ballad into Song of Swords than the other way around, yeah.
Lucas Bell
Jimmy.
How much money do we need to give you in order for you to relinquish rest of your anime girl reaction face folder?
How much money for hunter's handbook and Magic Compendium to be sent as an alternative to the black and white copies for GM tier?
Cooper Reyes
These are the answers we deserve, though you'll probably have more luck with the second if you ask on the Kickstarter page comments.
Julian Powell
Felt like trying to redo this guy.
Brandon Peterson
Very snazzy Coffee. That is some gloriously dense mail.
Matthew Peterson
I didn't know you could do horses.
Aaron Gray
Once you find a good reference picture they are kinda easy. gaps sink ships
Jace Moore
Where the hell is buillion expensive?
I'm very sure that the only coat in the armor section that looks like that is the sharkskin one.
David Hall
Never met a hussar or a brony then, I take it.
Connor Barnes
Jimmy, there are days old lore questions in Reddit, either you use it or not, but it's gonna die if you don't.
Nicholas Edwards
It's dead anyway, it has only barely surpassed the number of subscribers that's on the Opaque subreddit that they haven't used in years.
Christian Anderson
Joint Thrust is a broken maneuver anyway, poorly designed.
