finishing up my first AOS models
>>93948056>What's more important in choosing an army: playstyle or aesthetics?I think most armies aesthetics do a decent job of determining their playstyle.
>>93948264The bases look disgusting. Good job
>>93948056If you play the game fairly regularly then the playstyle is really important. Keep in mind that rules and playstyle is a different thing. Obviously the aesthetics is also important, but it can't be the only factor. To find a truly 'your' army you need to have both playstyle and aesthetics to fit your taste. And there might be no such army in the whole game. So you need to look for a different game and hope that it has a decent local community and not just 3 dudes that are playing it in a different city.
>>93948182>if you don't like the aesthetic you'll never do anything with the models>if you don't like the playstyle the worst thing that happens is your awesome models will spend most of their time doing what they'd do even if you play with them: sitting on your shelf looking cool>They are both important.I'm not sure how you can make a reasonable assessment like this and not realize that one of these things is vastly more important than the other.

>>93948169>people aren't taking 5+ magic items in most lists unless they're trying to fill pointsI am confident that between banners and magic items a lot of lists go well over 5.
>>93948169My sorcerer lord alone usually takes 3, 4 if I give him a power scroll. My bsb takes the blasted standard and daemonic splendor. My regular sorcerer takes 2 magic items as well.
>>93948169If you have a fighty character they will often have the ogre blade. You will also almost always take the talisman of preservation and more often than not whatever your factions defensive magic item is (trollhide trousers/rejuvination bead/etc), you will then more often than not take a ruby ring of ruin, and many armies have "must take" arcane items, if youre bretonnia theres also the falcon hornAnd then you have magic banners, of which most armies are likely to have at least one.
Did the cult of Sigmar know that the real Ghal Maraz was missing, and that they were using a Replica between the reigns of Sigmar and Karl Franz?
>>93948308GW might just retcon it so that's it the real ghal maraz at this time( I think the Core rulebook has a sidebar that completely contradicts TEW) though I don't really know why it's not like Magnus is shown to have used it.however in WFRP lore the Arch lector and some scholars knew it was fake but basically everyone else was perfectly willing to see the lie instead
Why don't folks like ultramarines for real tho. I've always loved them. After 10,000 years they're still among the top chapters with pure power in regards. Their drip is beyond measure. They're just good at everything they do. And look GREAT doing it. Got the most well rounded primarch of all of them shy of maybe the lion. Currently RUNS the imperium. We even got mfkn marneus calgar. Our symbol means ULTRA dawg were just better. Plus ask the orks were lucky

>>93942523>>93942533Okay I have an idea now>Territory is originally human occupied>Trolls in the area drive out humans >Humans take and lose territory>When most of the territory is lost to trolls in a period of human weakness, the monstrous race attacks the trolls >Monstrous race has race-specific magic that is OP vs the trolls and wipes them out >Humans claim the land is theirs because they occupied it first (many structures in the territory and roads were human built)>Monstrous race claim the land because they fought and won it from the trolls, which the humans could not (after trolls attacked, some areas were never occupied again by humans)>Area is also good mountainous defense and has lots of metal in the mountains >Fighting erupts again, this time the land is split approximately 50/50 >Uneasy truce is reached after a time >Monstrous race controls most of the river sources and dam them to limit human populations >Humans control most of the metal rich areas and block them off from the monsters Comment too long.

>>93917096no u
>>93943703Is the land called Gaza and West Bank?
>>93946992No, I actually based the idea off Eustace Osgrey and Rohanne Webber in the Sworn Sword by GRRM. Notably the part where Webber dams the river leading into Chequy lands.
>>93943703Works roughly.
We will never again have a new setting as kino as Dark Sun.Any of you guys still play this?
>>93947543That's not how I use it, that's how everyone else uses it, that's my fucking point.
>>93947542>snake priest was totally mad max>i'm smart and totally not born to a drunken whore who couldn't abstain from drinking while pregnant with my afs retard ass
>>93947448>>93947462I think you're not seeing the forest for the trees when it comes to the power level of Dark Sun--defiling magic is not the only change from "standard" D&D. Anyway, my point about attribute tables is that you get MORE power in 5e (which I'd unfortunately have to run because my players only play that system) compared to 2e, so scaling back to 3d6 in 5e would also scale back PC power somewhat. Secondly, 5d4 vs 4d6 drop low averages about the same. The difference is 5e4 will trend more toward the middle. I've never viewed DS as high power and I can't recall others making the claim that it is but I'll dust off my DS books and reread them before I attempt to run a game and try to see it from your point of view. The last time I bought a DS book was almost 30 years ago and last time I GMd a game for it was probably 25 years ago. Christ I'm gonna die soon.
>>93946869Dark Sun has much, much more in common with Den/Neverwhere and John Carter of Mars than Conan. People have to be basing their DarkSun = Conan comparisons on the covers of books they haven't read.
>>93948049>People have to be basing their [...] comparisons on the covers of books they haven't read.I mean ... it is /tg/ and that fits like a condom.

>>93947945Which game?Also, we really need more classifications for world. Not a ton, but some nuance would be nice
>>93947945Yeah, it's in the core book.

>>93947915>4mana to kill one thingThis is far from a board wipe unless you regularly have infinite mana, even in green. To kill just 3 creatures you need 8 mana that's absurd anon. At least post ezuris predation or the artifact/enchantment sweepers they have. Or that big green dinosaur that fights everything when it etbs

I'm thinking of trying to squeeze Lumra into my Meren deck but I worry I don't have quite enough self-mill for the lands to be worth it and the body is just a big dumb beater. Not sure what I'd cut to make room. https://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/rumors-of-my-death/?cat=type&sort=&cb=1726864644
This card is criminally underplayed. Freely tap down a nasty blocker on your turn, save it for combat trickery on opponents combats and I've never not drawn 4+ cards from it but usually much, much more. I love this thing
I like building block cubes, cubes made up only of cards from one block. I'm thinking of transforming it from 300 cards in random packs into 240 cards, drafted in set order. It would force drafting a little more strict, but I used to have an Alara cube that was drafted in set order and I liked it a lot. Anyone in here have opinions?

We need Slugcats in our lives. An intelligent companion npc that can collect things and spear chuck from the shadows.
>>93947892We need mothcats too. They're like Slutcats but they fucking stupid and adorable.
>>93946987From Grim Hollow. Unique enough to be interesting, can be strong enough to be a threat, and the setting is always cool to come upon an area with rubble and broken statue pieces areound the area.
>>93946987The Zaratan. I fell in love with the Tony DiTerlizzi illustration in the 2E MM. Probably not a coincidence that Link's Awakening is my favorite Zelda title.
Both the very first and most recent table top character you rolled appears before you, with no way of returning to their worlds. They have all abilities, skills, and gear on them just like their character sheet. What do?
>>93945497>character you rolled>rolledFucking disgusting. I have never played a game where you roll your characters traits/stats/whatever, and I never will.
>>93945497Heh. By coincidence, both characters are men of great faith, with a calling to guide others and give healing of one sort or another.I offer that my first PC can take my place in life, because he was an overall better version of myself, and even if details differ, his family is my family. His holy blessings can do incredible good in this benighted world. I do not believe he will find supernatural monsters among us (not counting the other PC), but he can knit people back together and ease suffering in many ways.Then I address my latest PC, informing him that I am the god he has long sought. I made him, know all his secrets, watched over him on his long journey, and can attest to all this with utter conviction. His new task is to assemble a cult, then use those cultists and his psychic powers to remake the world to be more in line with my desires. He is more powerful than the first PC, with a sinister charm, so many will be swayed by the zealous light in his eyes. And for those who get in our way, he knows many mysteries of the flesh, including how to break it.

I'm trying to come up with a list of skills for an urban fantasy/paranormal investigation system. I want a good set of skills where none feel too niche or useless. Ideally I want every character to have to roll every skill at least once every 2-3 sessions. I think a list of 10 skills is a decent number for my purposes. So far I've come up with: >Perception (general awareness, finding things, driving)>Athletics (running, jumping, climbing, moving heavy stuff)>Larceny (stealth, lockpicking, pickpocketing)>Fighting (brawling and meele weapons)>Aiming (range weapons from crossbows to grenades)>Survival (using rope and traps, animal ken, tracking, resistance to the elements)>Occult (rituals, exorcisms, general occult lore)>Academics (general knowledge of science and humanities)>Persuasion (charm, deception, reading people)>Technology (computers, electronics, engineering)Thoughts? Am I missing something obvious?
