/tg/ - Traditional Games

What would you call this?
Archaeotrolling?

>>14458293
Forbidden Lore (Archeotrolling)

>>14458304
Excellent.
By the way, normally I hate namefags on general principle, but I gotta give some props in your case.
For the name itself. I reserve judgement about you otherwise.

what exactly is the significance of this -4 strength thing

it was in a thread on /v/ about trolling /tg/ once.

>>14458346
Dungeons and Dragons rule, if you were playing a female she had -4 strength in older editions.

It is a /tg/ meme I believe since /tg/ was created.

>>14458358
Holy shit. That's pretty insane. And sexist.

>>14458369
in general, females have less muscle mass. it's a game though, so who gives a shit.

>>14458369
>>14458358

was it even in DnD?

I thought it was just a scientific troll based on mass difference between male and female weightlifters in sports tournaments, translated into DnD terms

>>14458346

Old D&D statted most races with modifiers on the attributes rolled during character creation. Making the character female netted it a -4 on Strength. It's sorta like Armour making you harder to hit - a fairly bad shorthand rule. People usually combine that with biologicstic arguments to make themselves feel better about their own failures at life.

>>14458369
4chan has a way of making fun of fascism.

Thus, because of all the buff shirtless male heroes that were jaw-droppers for women and the less women wore as armor the better their armor was, -4strength thread and a female version existed for a while what was it again... +4 str thread? I forget.

>>14458369
>Reduced strength due to reduced body size and weight
SEXIST!
>Chainmail bikinis
YEAH BUDDAY!

>>14458369
No, it's realistic. Although to be fair, they should be given +4 charisma, also realistic

>>14458390
we really shouldn't start this again, though it can sometimes be funny.

Anyone seend deathleaper lately? I miss her dumping her gigabytes of relevant images.

>>14458358
Doesn't kinda betray tradition, since they are buff as fuck?

>in general, females have less muscle mass.

There's noting wrong with having such a rule, but it's fairly bad as strenght accounts for more than just upper-body muscle strenght ingame.

>>14458401
>seend
2:30am typo

>>14458390
I didn't say chainmail bikinis are yay. They piss me off. Don't put words in my mouth.

It's sexist because, as an action, it favors one character sex over another. Picking a sex or gender in game shouldn't have a stat effect. There's no noticeable difference between either, especially not one that can't be made up with more training in some area.

I got so many images from deathleapers thread autosaging image dumps. I could use you here DLFG if you're up tonight.

Strongest woman in the world.

>>14458395
You stop that this instant, anon.

>>14458395
>realistic
Howabout you let players decide what STR their character has, eh buddy?

This isn't like allotting 4 less STR, it's a straight up penalty and that's grievous.

>>14458410
To be honest I think the rule was in the 1990's DnD, even though I don't play DnD. They changed the rule.

-4 dexterity

To be honest I've seen men with frames weaker than this woman.

>>14458410
What about having a natural birth? How do you train a guy to do that? Women, -4 Str, +8 Con

Needs a helmet and a shield.
Other than that, I approve.

>>14458433
THAT DOES NOT TRANSLATE TO INGAME STATS
JUST KILL YOURSELF ALREADY.

>>14458433
Brilliant! I'm assuming that's why women stay with men who beat them? It doesn't take away as many hit points, relatively?

>>14458432
in general, bro. in general.

its also an excuse to post muscular women. i love this meme

Was this rule ever in any published D&D edition?

I thought it was a house rule created by DMs who don't want their THAT GUY being creepier then usual.

>>14458435
I may have a few you might approve of.

God damn it, DLFG had an entire two threads worth of females in acceptable armor, I never thought I would have to save them with her dumping those all the time.

>>14458439

>>14458416
That doesn't look like Cirno

+9 strength thread

>>14458446
that's a bit better. chicks are not beautiful in chainmail bikinis, mostly because all of their innards would be on the ground in an instant.

This maybe?

No seriously I didn't save anything from her folder of decently armored women. That girl was manic saving all those images....

>>14458458
>Realistic treatment of wounds
>D&D

Ah I got this one. 40k, though again... I may have to go to the other tg related chan site to see if DLFG has dumped there.

>>14458449
>9
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: DAT CIRNO ASS

>>14458471
is there something about this...anime...thing and the number 9 that I'm just not getting?

All of the ones I got that are semi acceptable have no helmet.

lol, sexist... if I say women have generally bigger breasts than men, am I sexist too?

>>14458471
>>14458474
Careful you, swimwear-like exposure might get you banned.

>>14458481
>has never seen a fat man before.

>>14458484
Oops wrong image, I meant to post this one.

>>14458475
Shitty /jp/ touhou faggotry, so bad they got banned from /a/ and /v/.

Pay it no mind.

I love cinderlings from MTG, especially official art like this one.

>>14458497
Oops clicked the wrong one...

+4 CHA

>>14458489
>respond to guy inquiring about 9
>get 9
>my face when, but replace "horrifying" with "appropriate"

>>14458516
At least you didn't say something brainless like "ironic"

Gotta love cinderlings.

What do you mean -4 strength?

>Missiles or Lasers

>>14458504
That is a fucking awesome Elf drawing

Any requests for female PC's?

>>14458537
You might like this one.

>>14458541
strong, tall, long blond hair.

if POSSIBLE carrying a curved sword like a kilij, falchion or shamshir.

>>14458558
I'm sure a PC drawfag like one of the... No wait, most of them were banned from the "get in here" thread mass ban, even if they can come back they chose not to. At least that is what I hear, you'll have to go to the other place they draw at to get it.

>>14458558
:D

>inb4 hitler drawfag

>>14458565

Banning drawfags? Why?

>>14458570
also pretty nice. I was thinking something like this

I know it's a GW2 image but I just can't draw for shit D:

>>14458584
Because people griped at their roleplay on a traditional games board. "Avatarfagging" it was deemed even though they didn't give it that name themselves. Many people roleplay still and don't get banned. It was just people griping enough that others were playing a /tg/ in /tg/. It went on for almost a month IIRC, and then anyone who participated in the tread, posting or otherwise was banned for a month.

>>14458555

Nice. Good old Lodoss War.

In return, some excellent advice on how to roleplay a wood elf, or how to DM human/elf relationships.

Would /tg/ like me to dump my dark dames folder?

>>14458595
When did this happen?

>>14458595
>thread
Typos. Anyway, that put a sour taste behind their lips and they rarely come back here. I saw a few and tried to get them to hang out in one of our local livestream hang outs.

I rather not spoil their fun by revealing the chan site and/or the livestream they go to. I rather the venom not follow them, at their request.

There was once a day that there were an average of 3 drawthreads and over twenty requests granted every 24 hours.

>>14458610
I forget, it was a while ago. (A year maybe?) They sure stuck to their threat of not returning. This is what happens when mods listen to a few gripers that gripe endlessly until they got what they wanted.

>>14458617
That uncannily resembles Alucard from Hellsing while he was imprisoned.

>>14458625
Ah yeah. Hands bound behind his back right?

Getting food, I'll be back to continue dumping.

Even without the -4 Str, she will still kick your arse.

>>14458617
There's a steady one drawthread a day being archived on suptg for the last two weeks at least. Two from yesterday. Either they're coming back or they just slowed down a little, assuming that there aren't more that aren't being archived.

Could be just your specific group that left, but the drawfag population is undiminished.

>>14458655

I don't think anyone was arguing against 20dex weapon finesse builds.

>>14458655
Prehaps after she shot me to death.

>-4 STR thread
>all SFW images
>last time I made this thread I got 7 day ban for "Fetish crap"
>OP has gotten off scott free

Yes, I'm fucking bitter

>>14458658
No, those are new drawfags.

I see our old ones on steam, livestream and various other locations. A sum of no less than 12 drawfags who do not want to return to /tg/. They do requests still in /v/ and sometimes /b/ though.

(Most of them came from /v/ in the first place)

Isn't that the fuckable whore from Queen Hunt?

>>14458732
Risty or Listy depending on your eye slant.

Bandit queen of the desert and ruiner off anuses with an oversized morning star.

>>14458707

"Our old ones" = some people who drew on /tg/ for a bit.

We've had dozens of drawfags over the years, it's not like your group was some magical special group. As you said, they came here from /v/ to begin with.

Seems like loads of contributors have been shooed away from /tg/ these path months.

And come to think of it we passed the 1 year mark for those drawfags last summer. So close to 2 years.

>>14458745
Including the guy who did this? (more posting)

>>14458745
And this artist.

>>14458745
And this artist as well.

>>14458745
Also this one. Who also did the daemonette generator.

>>14458772
more daemonettes!

>>14458745
And this artist,

>>14458745
And this artist... The list goes on and on.

You can thank the Janitor for any drawfags leaving.

Just saying.

>>14458782
I think /tg/ has only itself to blame.

Most of these are really shitty.

And nothing of value was lost dot jpg

>>14458745
Oh and here is a big kicker, "Love can bloom" artist was also banned in that thread even though he wasn't avatarfagging. I have seen him do only a few requests here since then. People religiously pick apart his deviantart account to bring his art here. It may look familiar to you.

Yes, we lost this artist in that bash.
