I’m stuck with a mediocre DM who claimed to want heavy RP elements but allows no deviation from a narrow focused plot. Wargamer in disguise

I hate DMs like that, put your ego in check and make the game fun. If not I'll just move on.

Ahh, I did love that game for a couple weeks :D

I only ever played Rook, and my catchphrase was "Hammer slam that mess." Loved it.

Got the Collectors edition, wasn't enough heroes to make it challenging unfortunately.

man i loved this game. i started as a rook player, but then i got real good with Oak

Sometimes I played not-Rook, but then I couldn't build a goddamn trebuchet on one shoulder and an archer tower on the other so

Here's a game where one person gets to make up everything. What is the emotional impact of a post like this? I don't see it.
IF the DM is being an asshole, just walk away. If not, who cares?

This isn't good DMing in the slightest

Again, signs of a bad DM.

I wonder if Cthulu would actually be less powerful in power armour. Its power is eldrich madness, not strength.
StormWingDelta
lol if there's something dangerous enough or able to piss it off enough the power armor is likely its way of telling you you're dying. XD
JustBoone
It's powered armor, doesn't say WHAT it's powered by if you catch my drift.
MemeDissector
I'd say, given his size, strength is still one of his strengths, and armour doesn't really affect it's madness powers, so it's still a buff.
Cyzyk
It's rather stupid as a concept, but so stupid it's mildly funny. Cthulhu's biggest strengths are immortality and controlling dreams.
Cthulhu is oddly non-mad in his influence: he specifically wants people to let him out. It's a very straightforward goal.

How to be a horrible DM, lesson 1.
That first picture is of Rook from Demigod and I loved that game. Sadly they just didn't have enough heroes to make it challenging.

cthulhu in power armor, you say? bring it

Yeah, good luck with that. Cthulhu kills 1d6 players/ round. He doesn't even have to roll to hit

Imgur D&D posts always seem to have this theme. Guys the GM is not meant to be an opposing force but a facilitator of fun.
CaptCanada
It's good to get payback every so often. Teach them that they can't be rabid dogs. But nothing as insane as this tbh
ThomasMcMullin
You're a bad DM if you design monsters just to kill your players.
Dekartz
Alternatively, you run your game differently from this GM. If his players enjoy it and he enjoys it, nothing "bad" about it.
MySpl33n
Hey, they literally asked for it. I have no mercy in that situation.
There is a canon book for 1e designed jist for this purpose
Cinnaderps
Should challenge your players though. No one wants to fight goblins kobolss and orcs all the way to 20.
I'm not talking about challenging them. I'm talking about what this post is talking about, fucking them up because "DM said so"
MisterWiggler37
It's not even difficult. As the GM, you can just say a meteor hits and they die, with no save. The end. That's boring.
Exactly. Behind your DM's screen every roll is a nat 20
soasp
Honest question: If you just roll to see if attacks are successive, does the power of your enemy really matter?
FATVALKILM3R
I'd guess it would make them far more difficult to hit. And might increase the damage of their attacks. But yea, guessing.
Sheepyhead
And beyond the numbers issue that the other guy mentioned, getting within attack range and surviving against such an enemy is also a problem
ShittyFuckFace
Yeah. The game has an armor system, an enemy with armor 15 for example requires you roll a 15 or higher on a 20 sided dice.
Characters get bonuses to their rolls based on their skill and strength etc. So you might get +5, now you would only need a 10 or higher.
So a powerful enemy may have 30 armor or even 40, and you can't even try to damage it until you are strong enough with a +10 or +20 bonus.
Hope that helps you understand how the game works.
jlsalskdl96
You've pissed off the DM: every spell you cast requires rolling on the Wild Magic chart. You blow off your dick.
Corrodias
Nah, if the DM and I aren't getting along, I'm just doing something else. My life is too good to spend it playing power games with a child.
Tharberats
Due to some players not showing up, i had the Goblin tagalong sprout sorcerer powers with wild magic. Almost got them all killed. Twice.
ArtMadeofYourComment
I have an idea for a wizard with night terrors who accidentally throws random spells (some way above his level) in his sleep. Can't wait 1/2
to throw that at my players to solve. I don't even know yet how it CAN be solved. 2/2
Years of therapy. Or a metronome. Worked on me. A magic metronome!
Paralyze him while sleeping and gag him too and you should be good
My biggest worry is keeping the party from just killing him. Probably I'll make him the quest-giver.
Make him unkillabe . The most powerful unholy unlikable being. And it just like annoying your party
Nah. Nah m8... what you need is this: http://www.traykon.com/pdf/The_Net_Libram_of_Random_Magical_Effects.pdf
