I really should play those strong bad games. It's like hours of h*r content I haven't experienced yet.

I remember fairly recently someone posted (in this thread?) a link that listed pretty much all OSR/retroclone games, sorted into categories based on which flavor of retroclone they were (B/X, 2e, 4e, etc.) and a short description of each. Does anyone happen to have that link handy?

Who has some weird and wild magical items/spells? I'm gonna be running a Dungeon World game for some people on Friday and I asked everyone what they wanted to see in it. One of the players requested "some weird magic - stuff that's more than just "shoot a fireball at people," but more like "the ability to put a comically oversized bathtub drain on any surface." Anyone here have any fun obtuse magical things they've included in games or suggestions for same?

Donīt have a lot to offer, but my group had a lot of fun with a Dwarven Hammer of Haircelleration (It increases hair growth from Months into Seconds until one has what is considered a sufficiently dwarven beard) and the Land Boat (small fisher boat that grows wheels on land).

slap me and kiss me posted:Holy poo poo, really? yeah quote:Finally a game for the middle of the Nerd/Jock Venn Diagram. An RPG where everyone is musclebound and everything is resolved through feats of strength. Not only a funny and novel way to resolve conflict but one where player interaction is heightened through the fact that you are all trying to work (out) together. Hits all the great notes for a micro RPG: Creativity, simplicity, but still recognizably a role playing game E: I am not at all Jealous of the Storygaming Swine who stole my rightful place due to their anti-spaghetti views

What's a good Incredibly Ominous Name for a big, evil medical corporation/pharmaceutical lab? My players are working progressively shadier jobs for a smaller lab that does a lot of psychic/cloning related experimentation, and I need to whammy them with a "pssshhh, that ain't poo poo, watch this" kind of scenario.

Just look at actual medical labs and pick your favorite. I knew someone who interned at Genotox Labs, which is by all accounts a perfectly pleasant place to work, but come on

ElegantFugue posted:Who has some weird and wild magical items/spells? If I'm understanding the request correctly, just think of a normal, useful magic item, then make it stupider. So a potion of telepathy turns into... A sleeve of lozenges that let you read minds, but only while your mouth is in contact with the target (e.g. licking, kissing). A wand of wishes turns into... A bootstrap of wishes, which urges you to make your own wishes come true and blames you when they don't. You could steal poo poo from Rick and Morty - they have lots of obtuse inventions that can be reflavoured for fantasy. Lots of high concept sci-fi stuff there.

In my game of The Sprawl we have Tian Xia Limited which is what happened in the future when the entire nation of China incorporated after a coup by the Guoanbu. "Tian xia" in Chinese literally means "under heaven" but actually means "everything". I always thought that had a kind of understatement to its menace, but people in my group speak Chinese so your milage may vary.

Do the Ridley Scott thing and just smash a stereotypically British name together with a stereotypically Japanese one. Bam, you have Weyland-Yutani with the serial number filed off.
