Tabletop Roleplaying Games (D&D, Pathfinder, CoC, ETC.)

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Does anyone have a favorite class they like to play? I found myself really enjoying playing a warlock in 3.5.
 
I'm a big fan of Charisma-y characters (mainly Sorcerer and Bard) but I'm fine with almost anything, especially if it doesn't become too high level as it stays balanced. I've been wanting to play a more combat class for awhile. Int classes are fun because you can use your smartness to use all the delicious flavourful skills.

I enjoy making characters, but I don't get a chance to use them often.

I'm hoping to find a PF game so I can try out the new Unchained Rogue, which is far better than the regular sort.

Then again, all the unchained things are interesting changes. Summoner got nerfed, and rightly so because it was broken.

Not played many non DnD/PF games - I made characters for Tenra, and made (unused) characters for Shadowrun/CoC that were based more around support.

I'd be willing to run a play by post game, I'm already running two campaigns for regular groups right now.

I might be interested, but I'm not exactly sure that'd work, I mean for things like the map and the like.

Easier than you think, we have done it here before.
 
I also collect gaming books as a hobby so what systems do you guys have books for or have played?
 
I have a fondness for d20 Modern, in spite of its internal flappery. It's faster-paced and more dynamic than D&D, and easily offers better options if you plan to wargame it (which you can). With the added modules, you can play anything from Bloodborne in PNP format to campaigns akin to Doc Savage, Indiana Jones, HG Wells-esque Martian Invasion stories, or Pirates of the Carribean. You can likewise run, just as easily, space combat, a mech campaign, or something akin to Starship Troopers or Fallout.

It's pretty much one of the most robust systems around, bullshit aside.

It also has the added advantage of being d20 System, so most gamers at least know the basics.

I have every book from Werewolf: The Apocalypse in .Pdf form if you want it as well as base V20 and a few extra supplements for VtM. It's a very big compilation though, just as a warning.

As for favorite class in tabletops, mine's always been support roles. Clerics, Bards, and so on.

You can get a lot of the stuff on PDF and print edition (they'll make for you) at DriveThruRPG. (I prefer the books over the PDFs myself.) Despite it's flaws, I adore Classic World of Darkness (except Hunter and Changeling). Ironically, Hunter and Changeling are my favorite ones from New World of Darkness (as well as Slashers).

I have a bunch of Scion stuff. I absolutely love the setting, if not the rules.

I haven't looked too much into that one, but there are some neat ideas from what I've read.

it is very similer to Abberent in terms of power levels, Combat is wonky as fuck though I think it takes its combat from Exalted 2E I think.

My favorite Bard class in D&D is Dirgesinger from Libris Mortis. That thing is fucking amazing, capable of being an amazing offensive support, playing songs that can cause shittons of ability damage to enemies round by round, and which can animate a dead foe with all its abilities to serve you for as long as you play. The flavor for it is also pretty badass, as they're essentially goth bards that do what they do to give voice to the sorrows others feel.

I prefer to play mine as skalds, those types of bards that get into flytes and mock the shit out of the enemy to the point where they begin fucking up. Or alternatively recite great tales to make my allies more willing to fight.

Sure, let me get it in a file storage site.

Battlemage (a wizard who can wear armor and specializes in attack spells) was a lot of fun as well.
