literally yes. It's what the studio guys did each month in the games featured for WD. You know, the guys playing in Tuomas Pirinens campaign...
>Assemble and paint a brand new miniature?
This is another option, but you'll end up with a lot of similar looking minis.
>Adults have no time for this shit
That is why it's a hobby. I understand what you are getting at, and the guys working for GW are living in a parrallel world where they get paid for playing with toy soldiers. Every adult knows this. Yet that is exactly the spirit of the game you've chosen to play.
Be mad at the game, not me.

Ive read the peak of most of everything ive ever been interested in, but now i want somthing more, authentic i know that no campaign will ever play out as something as well written as stories with actual authors like lord of the rings or game of thrones but the idea of random people just making up shit on the fly and in the heat of the moment to solve problems is apealing to me

So is there any campaign stories that have been chronicled or saved for posterity? I only want the best of the best of such stories however

there is an amateur translation of the Lodoss War replay. It's the edited book version, not the original chapters published in the JP Dragon magazine.
AfaIk it's the only one that's been translated. I think Slayers and Orphen are vaguely inspired, but you can tell there has to be a difference when they have a single main character against Lodoss' team.

You could dig around in the Nechronica threads. There were a few long-running storytimes and shorter games that got retold in those.

There's quite a few that go for a long time and don't get finished for one reason or another (the Africa storytime comes to mind) but here's a list of a few complete ones.

So i'm not looking for a wuxia style martial art system, something that's on the low end of supernatural combat would be fine since they're all on that spiritual martial arts bullshit to some extent but i'm mainly looking for something focused on doing a more grounded martial art ttrpg focused on martial technique and the like.

bump for interest.

I once had an idea for a baki (video) game, where you have basic moves like punch, kick, etc. and each would scale with your body stats. but the body stats would basically be a collection different muscles. so maybe if you had absurdly strong biceps, your punch would gain abilities such deals extra damage, or goes through block, etc. it would be pretty complex to manage this in pnp form, but it would produce ridiculous builds that baki charactera have.

But seriously, I have no real vitriol against TOW, but the boxes literally do not move. Not even the usual pick up, look at price, set back down shit. All the 40k boxes aside from the new GSC Battleforce-thing disappear almost immediately - and that GSC box is down to its last one.

Tichino has a silver glow that shines brighter than any planet near it. It's entirely covered by silver dunes that appear like sand but it's actually broken down arcane machines. If anyone casts a spell on it's surphase the sand responds elevating the spell two levels (adding twice the intended effect if it can't be upcast) and forming constructs based on the caster's subconcious that last 1d10 minutes.

Beneath it are the remains of a great empire, sucked dry of magic after a great war, with enough casting you could extract enough sand to make a way into it and find explorable ruins. There are remains of the its glory to be looted, but giving too much magic back runs the risk of reactivating the master digital minds that pushed this world into destruction.

An idea for a mega scale world because naturally we all look at Blame! and say "I want that!"

The Cup of Tears is a temple planet that appears as a pair of hands gently holding a massive bowel. Inside of the bowel is a city like structure adorned with faces that cry and sob deep blue tears that make up the canals and water ways.

Most peculiar of all is the strange sobbing that can occasionally be heard and acts as a siren's call to those who have reached a certain level of sadness and despair and are drawn to the Cup. Many religious scholars and cults have made the Cup their home and research it as well as the Mourners who were drawn in by the crying which they describe that to be the cry of a sorrowful mother.

They seemingly have no need for sustenance, occasionally drinking the waters directly out of the canal and when they feel the time is right, they go to the Great Fall and cast themselves into its abyss.

Many a scholar or treasure seacher have sought to go deep into the Cup in hopes of finding hidden treasures and secrets.

No one is going to waste their lives on your dumb ass. That's why you're so alone you have to shitpost on a dying website to get attention. You've already shown you don't understand simple concepts, so whether you're actually that retarded or merely pretending, it's still a bad use of time. You played yourself.

What would you consider to be the 'mandatory' vampire powers and weaknesses, and what would you consider to be the ones that are too silly? As in, is turning into a bat as ridiculous as not being able to enter a house unless you're invited?

Goat Party Edition

>What is Trench Crusade?
An alternate weird history 32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.

>What Trench Crusade is not
TC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, 'woke' culture war, or discord shit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.

>What's the QRD on the background?
The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo dieselpunk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.

>How do I get started?
All the files are free online, but are split between the website and the discord. They have all been collected here for your convenience:
