I like collecting pictures of it for inspiration for characters and modelling. So post cool realistic fantasy armour! Include sources if you don't mind doing soRealistic fantasy armour doesn't necessarily have to be practical - it can be overly decorated or even use fictional concepts that don't exist in real life, like enchantment or other aspects. However, it should feel like it's made using processes that have logic to them - someone who has at least a basic understanding of how real armour works
>>94428120Games?
>>94430468Any fantasy games where your characters wear armor, obviously
>>94430641Just ignore the newfag.
Anyone have examples of well written anthropomorphic races/characters in fantasy? The best I can think is just either Dark Crystal, Tauren in Warcraft, or Charr in guild wars.
>>94430437Oh, that's piss easy. You make the players write it for you. They want to play a race you have no knowledge or in-built lore for, so you make each player responsible for being the resident expert on their character's race and its culture.
>>94430437Cool. What do the rulebooks say about those cultures? That's a good starting off point.
>>94430437lamia as the man eating desert monster worshipper of demogorgon?on the other 2 it's easy:leonin are either "proud warrior culture", insert-african-culture like Mali, Songhai, Ghana, Benin, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia or Aksum or grab another warrior or exotic culture from outside africa to add some spice, like siberia or steppe nomad mongols. for example, i made cossack/kievan rus lionmen on my setting
>>94430849tabaxi just make them whatever brazilian stereotype you can think of
>>94430855Shout GGGGGGGOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!! whenever you hit a nat20.
I may be retarded, but if evasion does not exist, rogues would have to mitigate damage the same way as a conventional tank would, no? Sure, low damage rolls can simulate glancing blows, but does the system not inherently allow for fewer options to build a character? If a damage roll is all there is to it, how do you account for someone skilled at dodging?I am honestly curious. I haven't followed the project that much other than Matt Colville's project taking notes from Cairn. I feel like it's a little counterproductive to bump up HP because "not doing anything on your turn isn't fun." Then, low damage on a high-hit-point target is essentially the same as not having hit at all. I guess I can see the utility of having only one RNG roll, though. My counter to that would be that the hit check is modified by skill, lessening the randomization to account for aptitude. There is a difference in damage delivery between a character who hits hard when they do land a blow (high strength; weapons multiplying existing damage is good) and a character who may not hit as hard but hits often (high accuracy; small, static additions to damage are powerful).What am I missing?
>>94428767>Also if you do, 1d4 damage for an example, and the target has 1 armour, does that not mean that 25% of your hits will be ineffective aka mechanically equal to a miss?Difference in delivery. A tank consistently lowers incoming damage because they are able to take it. They can survive many attacks. A rogue is done after a couple good hits.If you have a sword that often hits but doesn't do as much damage as a mace that hits less often, going for the mace is better when you need an all or nothing strike to survive. The sword would be better if a single strike, no matter the weapon, would take them out.Sure, avoiding damage is always better, but there should be a difference in how they avoid it. A rogue is an agile fighter who might attack with speedy flurries, for them, getting +2 magic damage on each attack would be worth it because they might attack more than once per turn.In contrast, a slow, bulky, high-damage juggernaut would benefit more from multiplying his already high damage rather than adding static bonuses.Apply this thinking to AC. At least DnD has the Dex-derived AC vs. Armor-derived AC difference. How does an auto-hit system establish a difference between speed and strength?
>>94428818Interesting.How have you balanced Rogue Points? How do they mitigate the damage, and what would that result in per point? Does spending them have an effect on your action economy?What do you mean by 'circumstantial damage reduction'?
>>94427943>I may be retarded, but if evasion does not exist, rogues would have to mitigate damage the same way as a conventional tank would, no?If you kill your opponent before they can get into combat, you never need to tank damage. Ditto for remaining stealthed after you attack. Fighter can't fight what they can't find.
>>94427943just because there's no to-hit roll doesn't mean there aren't ways to avoid or reduce damage. I haven't checked the MCDM play tests in a while (idk why you haven't, if you're the one making the damn thread) but I would virtually guarantee that they're able to spend resources for an evasion effect or similar.>But tanking feels wrong for a rogueI'll remind you that one of the rogue's iconic mechanics even in D&D is literally being able to tank a bunch of damage effects that don't involve a hit roll and always hit for either half or full damage: that's literally what Evasion is. Everyone else either takes full damage on a fail or half on a success, a Rogue takes NO damage on a success and half even on a failure. That's literally facetanking shit as their iconic mechanic, it's just flavored as preternatural reflexes and uncanny luck.
>>94428863Not to shut down the discussion here but I really don't get what your point was>slow, bulky, high-damage juggernaut would benefit more from multiplying his already high damage rather than adding static bonuses.If this juggernaut is hard to kill and multiples his already high damage then why play a rogue lmao (from a strictly DPS and survivability POV)>Apply this thinking to ACYeah you do that and its turns to other shit. Why invest in armour if DEX is just as good, better actually>How does an auto-hit system establish a difference between speed and strength?Thats the question I was expecting you to give your take at. I feel like you don't actually see the problem. Its not about the players, its about the enemies. Players dont like missing. And a highly armoured or fast enemy behave the same. You attack and you miss multiple times before hitting them once. We aren't here to fix dnd

>>94430405Yeah, but I don't understand it. That's the problem.
>>94430415Your first five advances each cost the amount from the 0-5 row. (should be 1-5)Then your next five advances each cost the amount from the 6-10 row.Etc.Follow the skill column when paying for skills and characteristics column when paying for characteristics.>Career Characteristics>Look to the Advance Scheme and find the three Characteristics marked "+" [...] You can allocate a total of 5 Advances across these Characteristics>Species Skills and Talents>Each Species has a variety of Skills and Talents to choose from. You may choose 3 Skills to gain 5 Advances each, and 3 Skills to gain 3 Advances each.>Career Skills and Talents>Allocate 40 Advances to your eight starting Skills, with no more than 10 Advances allocated to any single Skill at this stage. These all count as advances, and stack. So if you have 13 advances in Consume Alcohol before you start paying xp, the first time you buy an advance in Consume Alcohol, you look at how much your 14th advance costs not your 1st advance. Ditto if you put 5 advances into Toughness - next advance will be your 6th.
>>94430630>Your first five advances each cost the amount from the 0-5 row. (should be 1-5)>Then your next five advances each cost the amount from the 6-10 row.Oooh, okay. So if I make a human, roll a strength of 15, and decide to raise it to 17, I pay 50 XP, and not 90. Thank you, because paying 50 XP to get +1 to a stat by accepting Tzeentch's rule made it felt unworthy, better to reroll.I'm a bit confused by the terminology, but it comes from the fact I'm still learning Warhammer's words. I think I get it.Meaning that, shit, you're pretty much locked into your career and can't really level up social if you play a duellist, correct? Or can you still advance stats that aren't marked?
>>944306571. You can always buy up any skill or characteristic not available in your career at 2x cost.2. You have access to your current and previous career rank skills (and characteristics) at 1x cost.3. You only have access to your current career rank's talents.4. You get 1-3 downtime endeavours (1 per week of downtime, max 3) that can be used to reduce the cost of learning skills and characteristics (Training endeavour) or learn talents you don't have access to. (Unusual Learning endeavour)
>>94430842Changing career / advancing to a new rank is also a bit complicated.The base cost is 100xp. This assumes you have 1 talent and X advances in skills and characteristics from your current rank (X is that career rank x5).If you're leaving early, that's +100xp.With GM permission you can skip 1-2 career ranks, using the same above costs. Note this means you don't get to purchase talents from career ranks you skip.You can also change career entirely, switching to any career's first rank. (same costs)After you complete a career rank, you may be allowed to switch to any career within the same class, at the same rank. (ie; switching from Duellist to Envoy)Then there's the Change Career endeavour, which effectively reduces the cost of changing career by 100xp.

>>94426291I don't like this change.
>>94430628>>94430747been so much less stressed about all this since I found that WMH 3.5 project stuff. I'm not opposed to change but it's gotta have purpose. and "you can play all your old models and armies going back to Mk1, and it's not a problem" is all most players really want, I think.
>>94430783Surreal that you've missed on both sidesWhat people want are the rules from mk2. Mk1 was a clownshow and Mk3+ is a steaming pile of shit that'd give GW a run for it's money.>you can play all your old models and armies going back to Mk1, and it's not a problemThis isn't possible in any version of mk3/3.5 because the list building is just different, and everything that made those models those models has been gutted. It's not possible in mk4 because it's not even vaguely the same game. You're just playing a (bad) model agnostic system at that point.
>>94430797There's a lot to be said about this topic, but from a strict rules standpoint, Mk4 is easily the best version of the game they've ever made.It accomplishes the core idea of what they've been trying to do since mk1(make jacks worth using) while also fixing all the stupid, awkward shit that's mostly just been accepted by people.Is it perfect? No, and it won't be. But fuck man, I'll take losing all the good shit from mk2 if it means I don't have to deal with the loads of horseshit it had either.
>>94430822>It accomplishes the core idea of what they've been trying to do since mk1(make jacks worth using)>The second most popular warmachine faction (the most popular warmachine faction not counting >cryx) consistently took 20+ points of jacks in more than half their lists>even cryx ran like 12-19 points of jacksWhat's better than making "jacks worth using" is making "a game worth playing". There was a time when both had been accomplished.>There's a lot to be said about this topic, but from a strict rules standpoint, Mk4 is easily the worst version of the game they've ever made.Yes.

>>94427366There is a big gap in TL5 for all kinds of experimental nonsense before people figured out proper gun design. Was it mainstream enough to warrant entire table on its own? Not really. Would I use it in steampunk game over regular ass derringers? Absolutely!
>>94427730>Did you mean Gray Star?Yes.>>94427534Not exactly what I'm looking for. This is kind of the opposite of curbing excess abuse of supernatural power. PC should be able to reliably kill a swarm of monsters with correct positioning and spell usage. Specifically I'm looking for the narrative effect of a powerful, pulp wizard.>>94427730To the rest of your post. I'd like the spells to be a wide range effects like Gray Star's magical disciplines. I mentioned Elric because his appeal to the element/demon lords was similar, but a bit too broad.
>>94429678Wide range of effects suggests a flexible magic system (unless you are willing to deal with hundreds of known spells). Syntactic magic and the Discworld RPG magic system allow both fast and flexible spells. Incantation magic and RPM with all the options for speeding up casting enabled are similar, but a lot more fiddly in play.

>>94426601>/tg/ not spoonfeedingI don't believe it
>>94426601>It sure as hell isnt cheap outside of the US250 is not exactly expensive either. Mars 3 is 200, and Mars 5 Ultra is around 300. They all are reasonably cheap in my eyes (and the sales haven't even started yet) As i said, with only 50€ price difference between 3 and 4, i would take the 4 over the 3 every day, even if money is tight. (if its really tight, a 3d printer should not be a priority purchase anyway)The upgrade from 4 Ultra to 5 Ultra is less important, but its also not "that" expensive at 300. All 3 printers however are perfectly capable of printing wargaming sized miniatures.
