Hear ye, hear ye. I hereby call to order this meeting of the most illustrious Mages Guild! Now then, first order of business, because I find this hilarious. The fighters guild is petitioning for us to shut down our Department of Muscle Wizardry, claiming, and I quote "It isn't fair that wizards get all the nice things." I know, I know, it's great. SHOULD HAVE PICKED UP A BOOK, JOCKS! But anyway, turns out that they've got some sway or something, I don't know. Obviously, we're not shutting down the Muscle Wizard department, so we're either going to have to fold them into something else, or just rename them.

And before I forget, congratulations to Abgerth the Abominable on his five hundredth ressurection. We all though he would stop after one hundred, but look where he is now.

Welcome to the Mages' Guild. Pick a name and join in! Conflicts are resolved with d20s when needed, or with playing it out. When the thread dies on /tg/, we keep it going on archive.4plebs For additional resources, please visit http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Mage%27s_guild

Why isn't there a negative reply? Of any sort?

You're basically in medieval Europe. Being trans would be rough. You probably wouldn't just tell random strangers about your transition, since they might, y'know, call you an abomination and punch you in the mouth.

Without one, life is meaningless.

This is a thread created for the discussion of Quest threads, as well as sharing of advice and guidance for aspiring or current QM's. Posters looking for advice on tabletop games should look elsewhere.

Please do not shitpost, and please report any shit posters attempting to derail discussion or cause strife. This means avoiding tripfag drama or discussion about subjects such as 'make a board for quests'.

What's your biggest regret in your last quest?

> Player question
Why don't you play more quests?

So in all these reviews of FATAL I hear it called stuff like "The Date Rape RPG without the Dating" and "rape simulation" so I came in with high expectations that this could cover the mechanics of something that games simply don't touch.

Consensual sex gets addressed in fan works like Book of Erotic Arts for D20 or the "GURPS Sex" manual, but neither touch rape. Which is silly because if anything can be hand-waived into "just co-operatively describe this with flavor text" it's consensual things.

Rules are designed for resolving differences in intent and with all the rules we have for assault (even if grappling is often a more confusing issue than striking) having ones for sexual assault would make sense.

"Rape is not intended to be a core element of F.A.T.A.L." on page 7 is completely accurate here. If it were actually a core element it would actually have some decent rules.

For all the focus on the rape-y atmosphere of the game, it feels like reviewers really have not focused on just how little exploration the act has. So little that it is incredibly disappointing.

In 2000 the rules appear on page 342 of "Fantasy Adventure To Adult Lechery"

In 2004 the rules appear on page 398 "From Another Time, Another Land".

In either case they are easily found searching "Rape roll", a term which occurs 5 times in 1 paragraph and a 6th time in the one after.

All these fall under a skill called "Overbearing", a Wrestling skill which is basically pinning a foe who's been taken down or otherwise on the ground.

Although Overbear is essentially number 12 and Brawling 13, Rape is essentially a whole other ability which occurs only after a successful overbear, so I guess you could call it 12.5

In a shocking turn of events the largest and most powerful nations bordering the desert have defied the I.F. and withdrawn from the assembly of nations. An international taskforce lead by the feared Peace Keepers now marches across the desert to quash this threat.

On the other side of the desert a tiny nation called the Principality of Beskaosia must hold out against a massive invasion from the belligerent country of N.O.R.D. The Principality's small but dedicated military is no match for the N.O.R.D onslaught. To bolster the line a certain mercenary company has been called in, but will their team of elite mech pilots be enough to turn the tide?
