>>96631005The Doomed. It fits your parameters perfectly.
>>96631482Fuck me. Every single editions ?
>>96631626Yep, at least every edition of Nuhammer. Back when I played 4th and 5th edition back with my dad as a kid we always left the tanks on the table, but I'm not sure if the rules called for it or not, we just thought it was cool
>>96631005Five Core Skirmish. Models don't even have stats, just different guns with different dice values.All dice are D6, 1 and 6 have results. Easy to adjudicate results of narrative actions with this. Use scifi models and a few future guns. 5-6 models a side, 1 special ability, 1 special gun, done. Fun game too.
>>96631650Up through 7th, vehicles got left as wrecks unless they died to an Explodes result. 8th got rid of wrecks, probably because they tended to ruin the perfectly symmetrical tables that tournament players rely on.

Hey, what the fuck is an Immaterium Surge Station, and if they exist, why the hell were the cadian pylons such a big deal? Isn't 'Warp go away now' the Necron's schtick?Anyway, if they're not inherently retarded as a concept, I have ideas about a homebrewed sector which makes use of them, which might actually fit my Forever War IW successors.
>>96631033Surge stations are like wave breakers - they can stop the waves, but not the tides that cause the waves. Pylons stop the tides.

>>96590069Cellanus saw the end of everything, absolute darkness and now is a doomer divinator. All his auguries now must relate to the endTM.Since the inevitable is incomprehensibly far away in the future, let's worry with the evitable happening right now at the Abbey. The crackolytes were given access to the Arbites armoury and we got some sweet products of the Lathes in the form of very comfy Arbites Carapace, with built in recoil gloves in the bodysuit, sealed helmets with rebreathers, IR and photovisors. The gucciest stuff for AP 6 all over.Except Callidia who decided to keep her Hospitaller Carapace and remain obviously Sororitas looking. She did get an Arbites Verispex helmet with lots of fancy vision mods for Hospitaller work and =][= investigation rolls. She manages to fit her habit over the helmet.>Would it be tech heresy to get one of those Arbites Carapaces and restyle it in Adeptas Sororitas fashion? Asking for a friend.The frontier post doesn't have any bolters, so Callidia takes a really pretty Raffit Ringleader Arbites Handcannon. Galen gets a Vox Legi-pattern Arbites Combat Shotgun. The biggest fuckoff shotgun available.Despite being well stocked, its still all stub guns and some crowd control grenades available like blinders and hallucinogens. We'll make it work against a heretic army.The next day the guard lands and we are assigned a whole squad of 8 rejects from the Scintillian 33rd. The Damned 33rd. We don't even get a full 10 men squad, there's even a black demowoman in here!Can't wait for them to be completely splatered into giblets once the gm rolls a crit on them. Next session we drive 2 days to get to the abbey

>>96631663So just mermen but fishier? Unfortunately this isn't like One Piece where they have super karate.
>>96631688No, like Lovecraft.
>>96631625True. Industrialize is powerful, with caveat. It's arguably necessary if you want to conquer the earth by brute force afterward. Imagine the international response if some extradimensional army invaded from the north pole using medieval technology. I think the biggest advantage from Industrialize is modern agriculture allowing you to feed an order of magnitude more civilians. In theory, that would sharply boost land value and the essence income from it. In practice, by the time you've reached consistent and widespread modern tech you're likely well on your way to victory, but it's nice to have. Mixing that with Land Transformation could have a compounding effect.>>96631629Combining Insectoids+Merpeople for Crustaceans could be cool. Not strong compared to Giantkin or Demons, but cool.

>>96631689Gaia isn't an actor, she's an abstraction. The sum total of everything in the Tellurian.
>>96631765That's just one of the belief about Gaia. A hotly debated one among Garou (and other Fera)Gaia has been everything from an active participant, a marriage candiate and a girlboss who hid away, according to several different Shapeshifter lore. My favorite is Bastet, where Gaia goes to beg Cat for mating.This even includes the one ToJ that has the Wyrm finding where Gaia has hidden and nearly killing her.

How come Warhammer doesn't use casualty figures like historical games do? I think it's very cool looking and thematic, to leave a few dead guys behind when one of your units is destroyed or routed and litter the battlefield with the dead
>>96631724Dunno. They used to make some.
>>96631724You can do that if you want. There are casualty models for quite a few different factions to be found from third party makers, especially if you have a 3D printer handy.
>>96631724Brother, Warhammer players care so little about having a thematic game that they can't even be assed to paint their own army, let alone an entire second set of models just to represent casualties
>>96631757Do you happen to know of any for Skaven? I've looked around for those before, but never found much beyond a neat crashed doom-flayer.
I'm just saying most players don't have the capacity to enjoy a real sandbox.
>>96629727It's a professional level sandbox. You didn't hype yourself on anything so you won't try and coerce your players into said thing. You stick with what sticks and the world grows as they go because it doesn't need to be bigger than that right now. Congrats on being lazy and efficient.
lol seething loser replied
>>96629779lol out of arguments
>>96629870Nope, having varying goals is good, it's a thing in all games, and nobody said the world should be empty. It has clear goals since the players make characters with goals.
>>96629862Roleplaying is any form of deciding the behaviors of someone who isn't oneself, so even wordlessly moving a figure along a grid is roleplaying.Get over it.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me. It'll happen to you!
>>96628896And this is why I always hated EDH/Commander and resisted it even when my friends were gassing it up back in the early to mid noughties. Garbage format.
>>96629289It was fun when it was a player driven format. When EDH players were playing with Magic cards. But these days Magic players must play with EDH cards. Every set is designed with Commander in mind. If you don't play EDH, Magic is not a game for you anymore.
>>96629356it is rare I meet someone who feels the same way I dowhen they started designing sets with EDH in mind it started to get less funI'd buy you a pint if we were down the pub, mate.
>>96629356One actually HUGE change I hate is how instead of having individual targets, a lot of spells are built/tuned strictly for multiplayer games.There are some old examples of this, but they really kicked it up a notch.
>>96627795How many times are people going to need to be told that they need to stop giving Hasbro money?
