I've seen this thread like three times now and it's lame. I'm bored with it. So let's have a better thread and make your greatsword girl in GURPS.
She's starting with
ST 12 (The minimum for the sword, massively jacked for a realistic woman.)
DX 11 (DX over 10 for a fighter is preferable)
IQ 10 (We could go to 9 maybe.)
HT 12 (Gotta be in shape.
This leaves her base speed at 5.75, and it's not strictly worth the 5pts to bump it to 6 by itself, so we should buy her HT to 13 to get our money's worth.

We're building her on 100pts, we've got 30 left, but we'll put our disad cap at 50.
You want to think about what sort of vices and problems she has while I fuss with skills?

as i'm SURE you know, a very similar thread just happened

Alright well, since OP just wants pictures of swordswomen instead of doing anything to do with actual games, as is common, I'll pick her disads myself, and she's getting a VD because op is a faggot.
It's okay, she's status 1 minorest of minor nobility, so I'm sure it's subject of lots of gossip amongst the peasantry.

And here we go. You'll have to get a backpack and traveling gear your damned self, but here's her combat load.

She has DR10 forearm vambraces, accounting for a house rule of "If you have an advanced unarmed skill, the -3 penalty range for parrying a weapon becomes "you choose where the enemy hits on your armor," instead of "The enemy hits but can choose your hand."
That fills in just a little of the defensive hole potentially left by having no shield and only a bigass sword to parry with. But as we've kept her armor extremely light, Dodge 10 is pretty damned good as a fallback.

I'm making the assumption that wielding the sword in a mordhau adds +2 damage and converts it to crushing, just so it does anything the fuck at all. The rules have never been clear on fill-form changes except to say you can.

When she gets some points, probably good to look into armed grapple, and maybe some skills beyond those of a spoiled rich girl who's done nothing with her life except be trained in the sword and have inadvisable trysts.

Had a free quirk, minor alcohol addiction added. Illegal 6th quirk filling a 1pt hole in her disad allotment added for minor addiction to tobacco. "Nosy" replaced with "Chauvinism (Towards the swiss.)"

Could run a combat if anyone cares. We don't do that stuff around here anymore and it blows. I might be gone for a bit, but for when I return, I'll take votes on what she should be fighting. (But I've got vikings and goblins, for things vaguely within her viable threat range.) Could slap stuff together though.

Heavier chest armor than greatsword girl, but similar limb protection, an unprotected head and probably slower. One eye occluded and no weapon but an oversized mace: doubt she'd come out ahead.

Because it doesn't apply to any game, so it's not worth ever actually talking about it. In the world of fantasy, it is irrelevant due to gods and magic existing, and in scifi you can negate any natural penalties with a slew of cybernetics and generations of soft eugenics. It's only relevant if your a sperg, or just don't want your players being women for some asinine reason.

If you want it off your copy of the character, by all means. You can probably fuss the CR on her compulsions to make up the five points without adding anything, or upgrade her code of honor to full chivalry. Either will do.

I'm back and eating dinner, once I'm down we'll kick this pig. How big of a raptor do you lads want and how many? Feathers or no? I've got stats for man sized Raptors, them little fuckers, and bigass Utahraptors. That last one might be rough though. Was kinda thinking a pair of the regular sized guys. Maybe three if we're feeling especially dangerous.

There's definitely a pattern. He bumps worldbuilding and lewd threads with one-line, surface level questions every time they hit page 10. The way he phrases things sticks out a bit due to a pleading tone and a level of politeness not generally seen around here.
He often brings up certain cartoons and animes he's watched, generally harem shows and cartoons featuring magic. He often asks how someone would use a system to build something from his cartoons. Check out the Persona thread for some examples.

Turn 1 is boring. The raptors close the gap, and Anna steps a bit to her right.

Turn 2
The lead velociraptor performs a pack feint, but Anna doesn't fall for it. (MoS 3 vs 4)
2 and 3 circle into her flanks.
The deinonychus closes in, but is just clever enough to wait for the little guys to swamp the prey first.
Anna thrusts at the feinting lead raptor, but fails to connect. It retreats back a space. Anna steps back and to her right to keep the others in view.

Aside: The velociraptors are part of a pack for the purpose of pack-fighting. The deinonychus is not.

>>82297488
I'm going to assume some bullshit D&D magic arena where they can charm the raptors off her if she goes down and get a cleric in there, as long as she doesn't die on the spot. So maybe next time. I was thinking it'd be cool to have her fight mace girl from >>82295808 since there's some rivalry implied. Then maybe they can become friends and tag team something.

I dunno if I have the energy to solo "GURPS waifu fights general," to replace random sword girl artposting threads, but it's starting to have some appeal.

Turn 3
Raptor 1 menaces again, circling right, but Anna's not buying it. She knows how wolves work, these aren't so different, right?
Raptor 2 tries to nip her leg from the right flank. Anna dodges away to the NW.
Raptor 3 tries to pounce her from the side but it auto-fails on a 17. It rolls Jumping to remain on its feet and lands in the hex. Anna Grip-masters into a defensive hold and parries it* Catching it on the point of her blade, right in the chest. It rolls for knockdown, unconsciousness, and death from 20 injury. Pass fail pass, so it collapses to the ground off her blade.
Deinonychus sees her distracted and rushes in to take her by the neck. She tries to weave aside and fails. The creature gets ahold of her and bites down for half her HP. It could be worse, but her grappling skills let her mitigate some of it.
Anna is in dire fucking straights.
It's her turn now. She tries to break free. She brings her sword up and uses it for leverage**, succeeding decently and throwing the creature off.
End turn 3
Sorry for length between posts, I had to double-check some things.
*This one's a bit uncertain. Normally if you succesfully parry an unarmed attack with an armed defense, you can roll to damage the target. He technically didn't hit, but under the optional rules for declaration of intent, the parry is rolled first. Also, IMO, if you roll to parry a thing jumping at you that lands right up against you, there's no reason you couldn't hit it? But anyway
**Py-34 alternate grappling does away with armed grappling as a thing and just uses weapon skill. Weird, but useful here. Makes sense though.

Turn 4. Raptor 2 goes for her leg. Anna dodges to the NW to get away from it
Raptor 1 tries to pounce on her, but she smacks it down with her vambrace.
Large Lad swerves in against the gate into her side and tries to get at her. She grip masters out of defensive to catch it. It rolls a critical hit* and takes a bite out of her right leg. Her leg is ruined by 7 cutting damage and Anna collapses to the ground.
Defense is out the window. At massive penalties for laying on the ground in shock, Anna AoA's the raptor. Since it also did so, it can't defend. She lands the blow, but the beast doesn't fall despite a shocking injury.
As an animal, now wounded, I have it roll a fright check, but it isn't perturbed.
End turn 4
*The crit result was 'major wound no matter the damage,' but her legs near off so that does nothing.

Turn 5
Raptor one goes for the throat. Anna Grips back to defensive and, despite her horrible position, intercepts it with her blade. She succeeds on the armed vs unarmed parry damage and cuts its leg the fuck OFF. The little bastard goes sailing over her, and is removed from the fight.
As the last member of its pack, Raptor two makes a fright check, fails it, and leaves.
Now it's just Anna and the deinonychus. It comes back at her, going for her good leg. It's still suffering from injury shock fromh er last attack, so it AoA's the grab again. Anna tries to use her Judo parry to kick its face away but fails. Grappling contest is rolled. The Raptor gnaws on her leg for seven damage. Another major wound. Anna's HT rolls are holding out and she stays with it somehow.
It's her turn. She has to AoA and telegraph the attack to get past her monstrous penalties once again. Luckily the animal is just as keen to AoA and finish things. At C her only option is to grip mastery into an awkward halfsword and poke it with the tip. This still nets her enough damage to force it to make conc, death, and knockdown saves. With a 50% chance to pass each, it of course passes fucking all of them, and remains alive, able, and holding her. Anna passes her consciousness from effort at negative HP.
Turn 6
Raptor just tries to rip her leg off. It does obscene damage and more or less succeeds. (Would if per-limb damage were tracked, but per-injury dismemberment chance in effect.)
Anna is taken below her first death threshold but makes the check. she remains conscious.
The raptor rolls to remain conscious from the effort, and fails, collapsing.

Epilogue in a moment.

Epilogue
Now that combat time has ended, Anna has two ruined legs and fucking massive bleeding. She passes all bleed checks for the first minute, the second. One leg wound stops bleeding on the third but she loses 3 HP from the other wounds.
By now, medics are getting to her, at -17hp, and if they're the magical sort, she'll live. whether they can fix her wrecked legs is another story. The damage to her neck was surprisingly 'light' resulting in only half her HP lost, 1pt shy of major wounds and possible permanent damage.

What a fucking upset; I totally expected her to be dead the moment she hit the ground. You usually don't come back from that in this, especially when outnumbered. One of them running helped at least. (And for those curious, this wasn't a cop-out, but how I actually run animals in my campaigns. Morale check at 50% losses. STALKER dog pack rules.) I think I fucked up the rules in a few places, but that's the unfortunate nature of GURPS. Sometimes you also just have to interpret some vague shit for situations where the RAW doesn't make a lot of sense. Just write it down for next time.

I really hope this has been fun for you guys. A little taste of the /tg/ I think we all want.
So remember, the next time you see some waifu art thread with no mention of games, don't get mad. Just stat someone's best girl in your favorite game and make her fight velociraptors.

I think you're onto something. I'd absolutely do what I can to get some sort of Friday fight club going. I think the board could really use a thread outside of generals where people just show off their favorite game's combat mechanics.
It's my sincere belief that this place is so dead because nobody is looking at what other games have to offer, or talking with people outside their department, as it were.
I'mma be real though, I'm hard pressed not to do shit like run this fight again in 5e D&D to low-key mock it. I'd behave in a thread for purpose though, honest.

Since odds favored the raptors, the house owes you 20gp. Come on back anytime.

Also, as an apology now that she's won, I've adjusted Anna's sheet to replace her VD merely with lecherousness.

So she has armor on her forearms and chest. The problem is that she is absolutely riding the line of her first encumbrance level. She has room after it for 25lbs more armor, but her move drops from 7 to 9, and dodge drops from 10 to 9. It's kind of a rough call, but I think after that encounter, if she keeps her natural legs, she'll accept the weight just out of paranoia.

Agreed, nothing amiss with a somewhat more reasonable fight. Or a random encounter table of some sort.

I started these on 100 so far. Could do divisions in the future at more or less. I'm also using things like "Patron bought all my gear," to get around the untenable costs of real combat equipment at low TL.
And yeah, I wouldn't have them fight PCs of higher points totals except as a group or something. Group flight versus a tougher opponent could be interesting. Just watching one of them get fucking slaughtered by a high elf mage knight, not so much.
And having them fight each other is a given, as soon as there's more than one done.

Marcia's idealistic as balls. She's got pacifism towards anyone she thinks is innocent, will basically never break the law, is innocently easy to read, and is naively gullible about people's general goodness.
She also has zero tolerance for alcohol or rich food, and is sort of a busybody who gets in other people's business, and may be overly cautious.
But hot damn she can fight.
Her entire kit is provided by her nation, and it all costs less together than Anna's sword does. Her thin DR 4 platemail basically won't even slow down that Zweihander, but a cutting weapon has to do double the damage to not have the penetrating turn to crushing, so it at least may keep her only bludgeoned into unconsciousness instead of cut apart.

And that's character 2. Sorry for the wait.

It can, but it's very specifically like "if you're being arrested by lawful police et al." It states you have to be under threat of death to resist (which would include any and all orcs and shit, imo,) and I'd extend it to like "Captured by slavers, etc." As a GM, I tend to read that as "you won't lethally try to resist lawful arrest, or being taken by force to parlay with someone you have reasonable belief won't kill you."

Anyway, I can probably do some goblins or somethin'. I've got a buncha stats for a buncha sorts. Some of the first shit I put together for VTT too, with their jank as fuck old token borders.

Alright then lads, bout 2 it is, if anyone is left. Looks like it may be the last one for this thread.
I've updated the goblins with a better token. I couldn't stand that old one.
The goblins are equipped with cheap, light wooden shields, cheap, ill-maintained hacking swords, and some semblance of leather armor and a crude pot helm. They don't have a lot of HP, but they're average-man-strong and have solid HT.
With that in mind, I'll take any suggestions to increase or decrease the number of the little bastards before we continue.

Females do not really possess the necessary upper-body strength to carry a Great-sword around all day let alone swing it. One reason they are normally seen carrying wands and staves, which are more suitable for their physical strength. Also playing a female character is a road that leads toward transvestitism.

That's possible, but that would require them to pin her with their shields or drop their weapons, which could be a problem. And they don't know how to USE their shields, either. They're just carrying them as planks of wood to flail between themselves and attacks. They get the +1 to their parry and dodge, but their actual shield skill is a fucking abysmal Attack 6/block 7.
>>82300877
We all know that. Nobody doesn't know that, it's not a revelation. you're not dropping truth bombs. Hell, the game I'm running here goes out of its way to say "With average scores being 10, women have strength 8." A greatsword requires strength 12 to wield to full effect. Now, conveniently, in a game of pretend, this doesn't matter and I don't care. If you do care, run your own game. Except you're a tourist so you won't. Either lurk and learn something, or go away to where you know what you're talking about.

Hell next character maybe I'll make a strength 8 fencer for laughs.

Feel free to ask me anything about the system, or the mechanics of what's happening as we go. This is why I love these kinds of threads, it's always good to learn about a new game, or teach it.

Okay, onto the event. Neither Marcia nor goblins have a land speed of fucking 12 like raptors do, so it takes four turns for us to reach this situation.

Goblins 1 and 2 close in and AoD Dodge.
Goblins 3 and 4 just move closer since they're too far out.
End Turn 1

Oh trust me, we'll get that soon enough. Which reminds me I miscosted her DWA and it should be at -1 for points spent and not -2.

Turn 2
Marcia starts by making a 1pt deceptive blow at Goblin 1 with her sword, intending to drive him back. He has AoD'd and retreated for a net +4, but still manages to fuck it up. He flails as he backpedals, flings his shield arm too wide, and Marcia cripples it. The goblin drops his shield, falls on his ass, and is stunned.
Marcia uses her step to follow him.
Goblin 2 steps in front of her and telegraphs a swing at her face. She blocks it with her shield.
Goblin 3 steps into her front-right and AoA's a deceptive at her. Marcia retreat dodges to the NW.
Goblin 4 tries to slam into her and knock her back. He misses and ends in her hex, but behind her and facing away.
End Turn 2
>>82301161
I mean, she is but not because of that. DWA is "Dual Weapon Attack." Normally attacking with two weapons is at -4. You may buy this penalty off. So she's only at -1. It's still risky because if she swings her shield she can't block with it until after her next turn.

Turn 3
Marcia turns to shove the goblin away with her shield. He goes one hex but barely makes his DX roll to remain standing.
Goblin 1 makes an HT roll to recover and remains stunned
Goblin 2 steps over his friend and tries to Feint Marcia, but she finds this comical
Goblin 3 AoD dodges into her rear right hex.
Goblin 4 turns around and tries to swing at her from her side. She mis-times her block and takes the hit to the groin. The goblin rolls a 2 and the strike bounces off her armor.
End Turn 3
>>82301290
I sorely wanted to, but turning enough to use our sword on him meant exposing our back to the others, and we really can't do that. In the choice between a shield bash (Marcia isn't strong enough to do real damage with this) and a shove, which she has a perk adding 2 to, I figured the 50% chance of him falling down was better than the negligible damage that may just bounce off his armor.
>>
>>82301315
Slam him into the spikes on the arena
>>
Turn 4
Marcia steps to her left and shoves the goblin again. Unfortunately, he retreats away but this position at least keeps our back protected.
Goblin 1 wakes up.
Goblin 2 steps in and swings. Marcia dodges by sideslipping into Goblin 4's space.
Goblin 3 sees an opening and runs in to AoA her side, aiming at her face. Marcia parries it though.
Goblin 4's weapons are all reach C, so he drops his shield and goes to grab her shield and try to wrench it from her grip. Marcia accepts the penalty for successive parries and uses her sword to intercept him, but doesn't manage to hurt him in the process.
End turn 4

Turn 5
Marcia accepts turning her back on Goblin 4 to run through Goblin 3 since he AoA'd and left his defenses open. She runs her sword into his vital organs* and he collapses in a heap, not out, but stunned.
Goblin 1 starts to stand up
Goblin 2 tries to beat her shield out of the way for Goblin 4. Marcia again finds this comical and takes no ill effect.
Goblin 4 tries to AoA beat her shield out of the way for himself. He actually succeeds, and Marcia's shield use is penalized by -4 until her turn after next.
Goblin 3 screams a lot.
End turn 5
*The -10 assessed to his HT check in this image is in error. It should be -5. As a result, he is down and screaming instead of knocked unconscious.

Turn 6
Marcia turns away from the downed Goblin to stick 4. The attack lands the same, he fails knockdown by 7, and is shocked unconscious.
Goblin 1 finishes standing up.
Goblin 2 steps around atop goblin 3 and comes after Marcia with a telegraphed blow to her weapon arm. He misses, and she expends her first parry against the miss.
Goblin 3 stops screaming and gets his bearings.
Goblin 4 is done.

Turn 7
Marcia turns and shoves Goblin 2 with her shield. She rolls a critical hit and his defense is invalid. Critical result 6: Maximum damage automatically rolled. Shove at +2 for shield DB, shove at +2 for Shoves and Tackles perk. Max damage is 5 so total is 9, doubled to 18 for shove. The goblin is St 9, so we subtract 2 to find his knockback threshold. of 7. He goes back two hexes into the wall. Due to GURPS collision damage being based on the target's HP as a function of mass, and a garbage damage roll, he takes one damage to his left arm as the light little guy bounces off the spikes.
Fucking. Lame.
Goblin 1 turns and tries to slam her into the wall bodily. He misses as she sidesteps and slams into the wall facefirst. Also taking 1 damage to the leg.
Goblin 2 is in her hex now. I have him make a will roll to continue fighting and he just fails it.
Goblin 3 tries to crawl away bleeding to death.
End Turn 7
Turn 8
Marcia's a merciful lass, and steps away from the fight to let the little cretins surrender.
The establishment doesn't want to go through the business of replacing fodder and lets them.

>>82301527
Yes. Goblins are trash. All they have is numbers, and they can't leverage them well against a fighter with defenses as high and numerous as sword and board girl.
Average SLs of 12 vs 16 as well.
They may have dealt better with Anna actually because she only has one particularly high defense. She had a parry of 13 and a dodge of 10. (and a secondary 12 unarmed parry through liberal application house rules.) Marcia has Parry 14, block 15, and dodge 10 as well.
Anna's advantage would have been BIG SWORD though. If those goblins tried to parry that thing their cheap cleavers would probably just snap in half, if their shields got in the way they'd probably just break, and 2d+4 cut would just erase them from fucking existence when it finally connected.
>>
>>82301576
>>82301527
To continue my thoughts;
I think every fight against a hoard will go like this, with the single fighter back up against the wall and playing footwork games to deny their back. If people get behind you, they're likely to, being unopposed, just take the +8 from a telegraphic AoA and smash you in the head or neck. The Goblins are too weak to penetrate Marcia's helmet, but they may notice her cheap plate is thinner in the back as well. (Only DR 2 on the rear torso and rear legs)
They may not be perceptive enough for that though, and I'd probably require a Perception test of some sort to actually analyze enemy armor.

The raptors were more effective both because Anna isn't the best choice to confront multiple threats; and because they were dodgy bastards with biting and grappling SLs of 15. The big one was also much stronger than the goblins, and capable of doing significantly more damage, ontop of Anna having fuck all armor in most places in keeping with her art.

Can you think of a better base encounter for a 100 point character? Wolves maybe? Are orcs too tough?

>>82301592
Yeah a swarm of raptors is a bit heavy though. Anna got out of that by grace alone and would have been a cripple for life if there was no magic healing

In my usual campaign, magical healing is drastically limited in scope. All that got used was two spells to sterilize the environment and anesthetize the patient. Then a touch of innate telekinesis, roll by one of my player's foxgirl surgeon homunculus, since I was telling her about this and she was bored.

Swarm of raptors is a bit heavy, agree.
>Are orcs too tough?
Depends entirely on their skill level and stuff. There's not really bespoke statblocks, though some guy made a "D&D to GURPS" conversion for some monsters that I drag stuff out of as a starting point. And it's hard to say what's a good base encounter for 100pts because the...points don't mean much? Everyone uses different build assumptions, and these characters barely have any noncombat skills or the like. One of the PC's I play on sundays is 220pts (Not counting unspent ones,) and her SL's in most things are only a little better.
A lot of her points are in other skills and intangible stuff like just being really fit. Her edge mostly comes from being fucking jacked in comparison to these ladies and having an unreliable touch of spear magic.
We agreed for that game that skill levels in the range of 16-18 were reasonable at 200-300pts. Some of the writers of the game think that if you don't have skill levels of 24+ by 250pts, you're doing something wrong.
Balance can be rough. A lot of the time it's just putting a situation in front of the players and going "Well, I don't know, deal with it." The game's way less concerned with CR stuff than D&D.

I may not be able to make any truly balanced encounters, but I can probably just start building a stable of monsters and generic fighters and rolling on it, and correcting shit that's too much or too little in practice. I'm sure I can find a good basis to start from in one of these three dozen fucking 3.5 D&D splats.

idk I somewhat clearly don't actually play table top. Seems a bit full on in my area. I've heard there are some meetings at pubs and whatnot that might be ok though. All I have is my recent BG3 character really. He's a re-roll of a Greatsword girl I had. She was a bit elfy and didn't really have the strength I wanted so I re-rolled a human and also wanted to romance Shadowheart in a non lesbian way

Its very early in the game

Ah yeah, I mean I've heard of it, but I rather despise 5e combat, and that's all it's got going for it.
That and that they put in a million billion skill checks everywhere to try and make it 'authentic' instead of actually designing a dialogue system for a videogame. Hard pass, you have fun though.
Your resident GURPSfag suggests Geneforge, Kenshi, and the original Xcom.

Actually speaking of 5e, that gives me an idea...

I wasn't going to do it but I'm gonna do it.
Anna fight 2.0, now in 5e D&D because I hate this game and myself.
I've constructed her as a Human fighter/3
This seemed roughly analogous, though some GURPS fansites for dungeon fantasy suggest every level is about 50pts, so she should be 2. However, you don't even get to be your class until 3 if you're not a fucking mage in this game, so she's level 3.
Let's dig up some dinosaur stats in the SRD.

Two reasons.
1. Sheer self loathing
2. I'm genuinely curious. I did this exact fight once in GURPS. I want to see the actual side-by-side comparison of how these games play, so I have something like an empirical example to point at and justify my disdain.

>>82302321
You know, Battlemaster seems like you may actually be allowed to play a game, so sure. Let's tweak her a little.
Removed her champion shit.
Added Parry, Fearful Blow, and Riposte.
Though part of me wanted to demonstrate just how fucking boring a level 3 champion is, but I'm going to be nice.

And for the record, this isn't meant to try and convince anyone to stop playing one game or the other. Just sorta to have some fun and demonstrate why I don't like it personally. I'd rather demonstrate a bunch of games to the best of my ability and let people make their own conclusions. I'm going to talk shit, but I intend to not play this out with any bias.

I did have to sully my map with squares though.

Dinosaurs grabbed from random google searches of SRDs with no accounting for CR or appropriateness, same as for GURPS.

A lvl 3 is going to get crushed man. But yeah depending if she hits a riposte she might one shot one of them. Depends what the challenge rating or whatever is I guess. Like you saw I'm playing a lvl 3 battlemaster atm and there's no way I'd like to mix it with a velociraptor

Is fearful blow in another book? I got a PHB famalam. She's got Menacing attack instead.
Also I just used the array because I didn't roll for stats in the other game. Or any game.

>>82302405
Yeah probably. I didn't think it fair to go find more 'level appropriate enemies when I went into the GURPS example with whatever google told me were dinosaurs just expecting her to get ripped the fuck to shreds.

Okay, Turn 1
The dinosaurs have init and move in cautiously enough to maybe get their pounce.
Anna runs down to raptor 3 in the bottom and fucking whomps on him, since diagonals aren't real in the base rules I guess.
Rolls raw over AC, hits for 12. Raptor 12 2/14hp
End turn 1
