I don't know if you ever read my writeup that the Fatima in Five Star could cause the mecha's powerplant to run over the design specs even up to a V-Max style event. Basic Fatima and Etriml (brain in jar) could not perform like a high end designer Fatima could.

My personal rule of thumb was that near future mechs would never get past 4x because we had motors that could be 100x stronger than a human and a 4x tall humanoid mech would weigh 64x what a human does without armor and weapons. This completely ignores the power source mechs always ignore.

So let’s try this again.

Show me your Witch Academia style art. Show me arcane fashion and Magica Modernism. Show me Hex Girls. Spell Boys.

@evilrobotgames.bsky.social and I have a project in the hopper. We are not commissioning at this time. But we will be. That’s really all I can say about it.

Yeah, there need to be a lot more critters for this setting, the Wyvern are not the largest predator. The flying whale Sarah did is one of the bigger filter feeding critters in the setting.

This is SO COOL.

Back when I was starting in the biz, the style guides and insider documents were _fascinating_ but by the time I was working, WEG was no longer doing Star Wars.

Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

So I guess you make private calls from one, but to be anonymous you'd want unmarked kiosks in the back of convenience stores that aren't advertised.

Cool water fountain at this playground.

Is it tall enough to roll a wheelchair up to it?

We're gonna need a Discord and stuff, aren't we?

Wheeeeeee.

The finished piece from Thomas, @chronopunk.bsky.social gives me grief over not enough missiles, but I don't think 70s robots got there like Macross swarms.

Yeah, we went either the roll from the first movie. Soon we might do this one too.

After wiping out a huge part of the party's magic with a mages disjunction, the players suggested I might never do that again. The rogue lost 100k worth of items. 20 years later an AP I was running called for it, luckily someone counterspelled it.

Give them THE toys every kid wants. Mighty Thor Starter Kit, giant belt, ogre Gauntlets and hammer of thunderbolts. Everyone made a case why their character could use it. The clerics take when not casting could throw it for 4d6. The front liner got it in the end to swing twice per round.

One thing, I've run as a ruthless capitalist treasure keeper with share including item picks as a player, and run as GM over positively socialist player treasure distribution and never say anything as GM when treasure distribution evolves out of the character personalities organically.
