Got a 3, possibly a 4 person group here who would like to play over Skype again.
Have before, but our last DM hasn't been around in ages. We're not sure what happened to the last one. Our theories range from either died, got a girlfriend, or our complete noobness pissed him off. ...
Anyone wanna give it a shot?
Also, we're all of drinking age and would very likely be having a few as we play.

I'm trying to get into warhammer 40k lore what book should I read?

How would one go about learning the rules for CoC?

How often do people make up their own race to play as?

how often do people take a race from different shit?

this is ofcourse implying that the DM would actually allow it.

Forgotten Realms is best Campaign Setting

Can anyone tell me which unearthed arcana gave a new bard subclass for 5e? I have been looking for it on the wizards site but can't find it, am I remembering wrong?

Why are quest threads without illustrations so popular on /tg/? The way I understand it, it's pretty much just RP but with everyone sharing a single character.

>tfw you have a great character but nobody to play it with

After looking at a 4chan post, I found the absolute best enemy of my Crusaders. I'm currently a DM for a bunch of Paladins that are so racist and against all non-humans it's insane, saying "Only those chosen by the Sun are allowed to live! Aasimar and Humans, those with the hair of gold* are the only ones with rights, the dwarves, the halflings, the elves and the gnomes are our servants, for they do not praise the sun!" type of Crusaders. It was rather hard to get a morally ambigious enemy like of course I could go with drow or druegar or a resistance of halflings, elves, dwarves and the like.
But no.

Sun worshiping vampires. I'm running 5e, and Wizards of the Coast recently released the Sun worshipping Warlock archetype. It's just meant to be at this point. Vampire clerics, vampire Paladins, vampire Paladin Warlocks. Oh god yes. This is going to be amazing.

Does anyone here play Flames of War? Do you have any advice on what I should spend my money on to start? Also what's priority if you're on a tight budget?

How do I find a nearby offline tabletop group? I've found a few, but they're too far away. The game doesn't matter too much (As long as it isn't FATAL or some shit).

has anyone here played fabletop.com before, and if so, does it work well with normal campaigns?

ITT: TG stories of players that obviously don't belong, and are only there to be a spoilsport. Radfems in DnD, fedora tippers in Crusade RPs, the good stuff.

fabletop.com/ Here's a fun little thing for you folk.

Hey Tabletop, I am looking for some advice. I am running and participating a couple of homebrew campaigns with the same set of people. We have a problem player who doesn't seem to get DnD but still likes to play. He will have very little creativity with his characters but have an extreme attachment to them. One time our characters were pitted in an arena match against each other and him and another player had to fight one-on-one where he lost but did not get killed by the other player, just knocked out. Regardless, he started pouting and just played with his phone for the rest of the session even when he was revived.

That is probably the worst hes done but he is still uncreative with his character and actions. I would like to know if anyone knows how I could help him be more creative with his character and not be upset if something happens without just flat out telling him to be a better player.

TFW you want to get into tabletop wargaming but none of your friends do... On a related note, how serious do people get with those games? The reason I wanted to play with friends is to allow it to be a bit more casual. If I went down to the local gamestore are the games gonna be intense or laid back and casual?

Hello, I'm hopefully going to be starting my first D&D session at my University this week. As such can anyone give me any advice about character creation and general shit I should do/watch out for?
