Still stuck with trying to figure out mass combat. If anyone knows a system with 17th century weapons, terrain, and pinning musket fire please tell.
>>92957721I am not sure what are you looking for, but I try to help. If you are looking for a system with fast and easy mas combat system my first bet would be Savage Worlds. Although I didn't know about any XVII century setting for SW, but there is "the Savage World of Salomon Kane". It is set in XVI century and have rules for black-powder weapons. If you want something more tactical, I am not sure if you gonna find it here. Most TTRPGs focused mostly on personal combat. Even if system have mass combat rules they are usually quite simple. If we try to make it as detailed as possible, we would go into a war-games territory.
Was it ultimately a woman moment or a cleric moment?
>>92933989Surprise Anal
>>92944299The aborted sex scene spells it out: hubris. The King-Priest brought about the cataclysm by saying lots of things including that he was going to eliminate evil from the world. His hubris, not pride, let's be big people and use the proper word especially given its religious meaning, was instrumental in bringing down the wrath of the gods.Crysania says to Raistlin>You are more powerful than Fistandantilus. I am stronger in my faith than Denubis! I heard the Kingpriest’s demands of the gods. I know his mistake! Paladine will answer my prayers as he has in the past. Together, we will change the ending…you and I.…She's convinced that she knows better than the King-Priest and is more faithful than Denubis (the white robe priest who went with Fistandantilus), and she may well be. She is convinced she is capable of changing the results of others because she is better than them and that she can redeem Raistlin too: that's her hubris. She doesn't have to be mentally deficient, just hubristic and very misguided. It's a trope at least as old as the Greeks and I think it's a good tragedy as tragedies go.
>>92932434You have to move on, anon.
>>92933912Dragonlance sounds based. Because being evil and raping women is based.
>>92933912Reminds me of picrel>geriatric leper mc gets isekaid to fantasy land>rural qt worships him and takes him to her village>mc meets her parents and eats their food>mc goes on moonlit walk with qt who worships him>mc proceeds to fly into a rage and struggle cuddle her>qt doesnt tell her mother so that she will escort dipshit mc on his journey>reunites with mc in sequel as an old woman and still worships him
He just wanted to build castles.
>>92957597I don’t know about Ferrus beyond Medusa being a shithole with some kind of necron bullshit on it with the whole metal serpent he had to drown in magma, but Dorn grew up on an unrelenting ice planet where a single fuckup in the environmental seals meant everyone in the clan was freezing to death or a single lapse in focus while outside meant your ass was falling down an ice canyon and dying.Vulcan had it pretty shit too, landing on an irradiated hellhole that also happened to be a favorite raiding ground for Dark Goddamn Eldar.Corax grew up a slave and his first post-tank memory was ripping a grown man’s head off to stop him from raping a slave girl.Jaghatai was found and raised by barbarian raiders who immensely disliked him for wanting to do more than just ride horses and be raiders forever.Mortarion had it pretty shit in a toxic hellpit ruled over by a nurglite sorcerer-daemon and his fucking zombie legions.Fulgrim grew up literally dirt poor, and the initial reaction of the people who found him was to kill him so he wouldn’t be another mouth to feed.Most of the Primarchs had some really shitty starts in life, meanwhile you have Guilliman and Perturabo who grew up in the highest echelons of their respective societies.
>>92954860Yes, but using another person being bad at their job to excuse away the other person being bad at theirs is deflection and shows a lack of personal responsibility. It's like when an otherwise good worker starts being a shitty worker because he sees his coworkers being lazy. Just because the people around you are pieces of shit doesn't mean it's okay for you to be a piece of shit too.
>>92958023>Fulgrim grew up literally dirt poor, and the initial reaction of the people who found him was to kill him so he wouldn’t be another mouth to feed.And then he became a union boss and took over the planet.Workers of Chemos, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains.

>>92951221>>92951273>>92951278very nice. appreciate the advice!
>>92950530Bullshit. At this point they're sitting ducks for your crossbowmen with pavise. Plus everybody is shit in rough terrain except for elite; so either you drown them under waves of 1 point shitty troops or you plow them down with your flexible elite that are unbothered by terrain and hit like a truck.It reads like you took a look at the rules and theorycrafted like an autist instead of playing the game two or three times with a friend.Also the author really encourages you to play scenarios instead of face off and throw in a dozen of them in Lion Rampant 2nd Edition, so sitting in the rough won't do you any good while your supplies are being raided or the duke is escaping on the other side of the table.
All my friends are completely set in the ways of playing Warhammer AoS and they won't budge, half of them aren't even enjoying playing the game anymore yet they still don't budge on playing something new. I have been so tired of GW and warhammer for the past few years, and have been really interested in the SAGA range, and that got me wondering if you could get away with playing it solo? I've seen that games like Silver Bayonet have a solo campaign, does SAGA? Just downloading all the books now - thank you to you Chad's who have uploaded them - so if my question is completely retarded and obvious, feel free to ignore it.
>>92953027I think it entirely depends on what armies you want. Personally I've been eyeing Island Assault for ages but then again, I've heard it's just best to just two opposing boxes from either Warlord or Wargames Atlantic and then making a 500 point list from that box. Here's a website that tells you what you can build for an army in a single box. In fact, it may even be 1000 points. I think it is, actually.https://chicagodice.org/bolt-action-beginners-guide/starter-army-guides/
You find out your real father is Cthulhu.What do?
>>92951049Child support is sexist extortion. In an era where women have thousands of forms of birth control, there is simply no good excuse for them allowing themselves to become pregnant. Any woman who gets preggers out of wedlock is absolute trash.
>>92940239Ask mom about the fish rape.

Tell him that, even though he's my "real" father, I'll always consider Yakub to be my real dad.
How short do you usually make short races like goblins?
>>92929662Dick sucking height.
>>92929662like mongol warrior height
>>92929662Typically 3-5' tall or so. Short enough that they're usually identifiable and would have physical difficulties, but not so tiny that they look like literal toddler or something like some media does it.The only exceptions are things like fairies and other races that are very tiny by necessity
>>92929662>How short do you usually make short races like goblins?just the right height

Post game master advice and experience.Relatively new GM, only ran like 3 games. One thing looking back is that I think I said a veriety of "You should" too much instead of "There is". Kinda pushing prerogatives more than just laying out the situation and letting the players do what they do. One specific thing I said was "You should prepare for a siege" instead of "Prepare for a siege". The first is a command, the second is more of a statement of what WILL happen, weither or not they prepare. I felt the first was noticeably too hands on.Write whatever you want concerning GMing, DMing, Judging and whatever fancy word your system uses for the referee.
There’s different styles of playing which will influence how you run your games. I’ve gm’d the same group of players for 4 campaigns now over about 13 years, and played as a player in the same group. Our particular group has much more fun with a lot of improvisation, especially when it comes to “plot”. Not every group will want the same thing, but I learned pretty early that you need to let the players guide the plot beats whenever they are around. Your villains and npcs can do things in the background, but if they take the stage with the PCs everyone will have more fun if you go along with what they want to do. In general for myself I prep lore and in universe stories, things like that, but don’t worry about being meticulous about what monster is where in a dungeon or planning the exact route a quest could progress. Focus on what the groups current goal is and let then decide how to take the next step, then either make it happen or have a fun scenario emerge from them being retarded (it’s always the second one).
>>92956455Just for you:https://voca.ro/1dNkcEwsng3G
>>92956686And you never called me a Kurwa.
>>92955426Depends entirely on the kind of campaign you're planning to run. If it's mostly combat why the fuck is there lore? If it's location based the players will want every edge they can get, and will ask for historical capitals, battlefields, hideouts, and symbols. If it's mystery they'll take the 60 pages and ask for more.Most of the people who are mad that they can't push their loreshit run D&D, PF, or another heartbreaker. Coombat brain.
>>92956377How exactly does my post give the impression that I think people are reading my mind or constantly laser focused? It’s literally advice for what to do when that doesn’t happen. Clearly I’m aware of the possibility

>>92954343see pic, it's not how i would actually print this but it servers its purpose as an examplebasically, i believe you need to increase the amount and size of supports at the start of the print. angle of the model is fine thoyou have all that space on the inside of the shoulder pad that is going to be hidden from sight once attached to the model, so you may as well utilize all that space with medium sized supports to take the brunt of the weight.my comment about '2 supports 1 stem' is to try and help you from creating a frankenstein of support stems that end up bunching together and making a thiccc stem. i've done it myself and can sometimes fuck up a print by ruining the intended weakness of another supports tip by clipping into it.also consider utilizing the mirror supports option if possible (doesn't always work well tho, especially with scanned parts)hope this helpssorry if this is seen as 'spoonfeeding'i needed help in my early days of printing, and now that i've got abit better i want to help others
>>92957109>sorry if this is seen as 'spoonfeeding'I think that line refers to helping people look for files more than tech support.
>>92956897>>92957109Im using lychee auto supports plus a few of my own placed supports. I was doing lights with a 0.15mm tip, but I usually do medium with a 0.30mm tip.Thanks so much for the in depth help, im reading and rereading it as I re-do my supports. Here's hoping third time the charm.
>>92957422I really don't get auto-supports for resin, they barely seem to work.Maybe it's because I started with the first version of Chitubox and have never used anything else, but learning to do my own supports puts the onus on me when it comes to failure and I respect thatStart with your heaviest supports at the "lowest" points, these hold the weight of the world on their shoulders. Sometimes you just need one fat heavy on the lowest point(s)Then your mediums on lesser load bearing areas and places that will share some of the strain from your heavies.Then just sprinkle lights on little fiddly detail bits and hope for the best
I dropped a popsickle stick loaded with 6mm dudes. Broke the body from its ankles.Before that, I dropped an ork shaman. Broke his hand off.My saturday has been very sad.
Why did this campaign leave imperium fanboys seething over it?
>>92943872Tau won, innit?
Wasn’t Damocles the first couple attempts to advance the narrative
>>92956712In a minor sort of way. It advanced it entirely within the context of the relatively minuscule part of the Galaxy the Tau are active in. I don't think people even considered it "advancing" anything for awhile since mostly it was more like just giving the Tau some sort of history in the area since they'd otherwise popped up out of nowhere.And especially since the end result in both was basically a cease fire to any active border movement. Neither Crusade resulted in anything appreciable being advanced for either faction, Imperium or Tau. Especially since the only thing that really happened, in the second crusade, was the Tau head Ethereal getting got. And then it got covered up so it basically didn't happen anyway.
>>92950274Phil Kelly can go straight to hell.
>>92951056The problem is that the Imperium fanboys tend to get their lore from YouTube and would never, say, crack open a codex to read about Abaddon's first 12 black crusades or the Tau society. So they assume the Imperium is superior because they're stans.

Vinter was done dirty, Magnus the Judas deserves to be soul reaped and Stryker nailed to a cross alongside the senile fool called Nemo.
>>92953738Vinter was a stupid asshole who couldn't see past his own need for power. He got away with it by being perhaps the greatest swordsmen in the world, but also because he was using armor that was essentially cheating.
>>92957428I wonder if they are going to reintroduce Feora's army as a Cadre for the future Protectorate army due to some contrived reason.
>>92957511She escaped into the desert as a fugitive after her coup failed, so I don't see that. I could see her leading her own faction in some fashion, however.

>>92953640It's accounting horror
>>92953640>keeping track of air, food, and waterThe game has like one paragraph of rules for what happens if you're starving/dehydrated/asphyxiating. Why is that the thing you fixated on? It's hardly integral to the average session, just something you pull out if it becomes relevant.
>>92949280>>92949778I mean, if you think about it, the bad shit wasn't really via the deep ones themselves, but via Obed. If they'd just kicked people out, or fucked off up the coast, it's whatever. All of the second generation innsmouthers though, I can see it from a certain side. It's fucked that they murder outsiders, for sure, but they're also born into this fucked society where they are told (probably rightly) that they'll be totally murdered if any outsiders find out the truth, and they have several decades of painful transformation that they're going to go through. I think it's an interesting pov to look through.
>>92949057Reading The Wide Carnivorous Sky right now. City of the Dog is pretty good. I like how it doesn't explicitly tell you what's happening, but it's still really creepy even if you haven't read Pickman's Model.
>>92956721Not him, but resource scarcity is a staple of space/sci-fi horror, especially if the PCs are spending any amount of time in EVA or on a ship without the proper atmo.Personally, I'm cribbing Alien's resource dice system for the Mothership + Dive game I'm planning. Accounts for that little bit of chaos and keeps things fair and freaky.

>>92955438That makes sense. Lots of good space to explore here. Mono color is better you're rightKind of the opposite of stuff like that Burn spell that deals more damage the later you draft it
>>92954772But its giving something away, so Green?
>Sacrifice a land you control. Create three wastes.What's an appropriate price for this? Preferably green or black.
>>92957829I think 4cmc would be the rate for Explosive Vegetation or similar cards which can search up two basics. Saccing a land as a cost to get three wastes nets you a similar amount of ramp.3cmc and you start getting closer to Harrow. At best I could see a justification to make the card 1BG and Sorcery speed, which might add up to enough drawbacks by comparison. Overall though it's probably much safer to have it at 4cmc with some slight upside. Cards like Map the Frontier and Circuitous Route basically do the same thing as Explosive Vegetation, except can also search for some specific non-basics. Or there's Migration Path which can also cycle. If it's meant to be more Eldrazi themed in specific, then a higher cmc card with an Emerge cost could be an interesting way to handle it. Though that assumes you're using Wastes for that reason, rather than just for the general downside of not making colored mana.
>>92951769Shouldn't power drain also tap all artifacts (or just vehicles) too? It shuts down vehicles AND disrupts shields in the games after all.
