This game had such a kino setting. What is a good system to play a kung-fu RPG that involves a lot of punching?
I WAS HERE FOR THIS
>>97343529i was the guy who suggested Feng Shui.it's an off-topic thread. you know this. of course you could spin anything into /tg/-related, but that's true of any board. it's off-topic, it should be deleted (ideally with OP banned).let's not play dumb, because that just gets tedious. https://4chan.org/rules#tgdoes this thread fit this rule, y/n?
>is a thread asking about what system is better to play a game relevant on /tg/?You're better when you play dumb.
>>97342668You say nigger, but you still refer to OP as 'they'. The woke mind control really has done its work, huh.
>>97343763you could do this about any subject in the world, though.it's a silly argument but there are practical rules (and we're on a board dedicated to games that have rules) so what do you THINK the rule should be?i feel like that's the most blood we'll get from this particular stone. that's the /tg/-esque way i can see 'a thread about a thread about a video game' going. like, what if the website was a game etc, how would you word the rule if the game was refereed RAW?
At what age do magic users start training in your setting?
If/when they learn their magical technique and if/when they train to refine it is all circumstantial.But you just wanted to spam that image for the thousandth time anyway.

Douchemachine used to be the largest competition to GW. Now look at it and laugh
>>97342152>Warmachine in China 1 Neat, did someone finally find some of the knockoffs?
>>97330704Truly the chad's wargame.
>>97343108There were some photos in old WM threads. But they were as you expect - hard children toy plastic with shitty detail quality.
>>97330704What happened with the 4 ed relaunch?
>>97343731Well, technically it exists. It's the most you can say about it. But they don't seem to be in any haste to launch any models except for whatever few they already did, squatted some factions and changed the stylistics. So its just kinda there.
There are a lot of examples of knights being implemented into a sci-fi future setting (Warhammer 40k, Battletech, Dune), but are there any examples of medieval societies with modern-esque professional soldiers?
>>97339216>There are a lot of examples of knights being implemented into a sci-fi future settingName even one.
>>97339216Glen Cook's Black company? A bunch of mercs do shit in a fantasy world, but it's pretty "modern" military wise. They - well, most of them - aren't fanatics, they just do their job. Also: the Bridgeburnes from Malazan?
>>97339397all scifi is fantasy. scifi is a subgenre of fantasy
>>97343780That makes even less sense than it being its own genre. I mean in terms of what words mean; it actually makes huge sense in terms of conning a bunch of suckers to buy something that sounds different in a saturated market, genius even.
>>97339417>joining the Roman legions ceased to be profitableHadrian managed to square this circle (as did Antonius Pious, if I recall correctly) but he was one of the few emperors who wasn't insanely stupid and corrupt, and actually used tax money for public works.
Let's say, hypothetically, someone, not me, were to have, allegedly, altered the atomic structure of Warp Stone. Now let's say, HYPOTHETICALLY, it caused a cascade effect that resulted in all Warp Stone in existence being altered the same way.Now, this Warp Stone might, MIGHT, have a 99.9% chance of altering the behavior of Skaven exposed to it to experience a complete reversal of their usual traits, mannerisms, behaviors, personalities, and such. Now it might, POSSIBLY, make them 100% aware that they are altered and unable to stop their new behaviors no matter how hard their inner thoughts are screaming at them to stop.In the event this completely hypothetical situation occurs, what kind of repercussions might one expect from being the cause of such an event?
>>97342649>This shamble-mess of pocket empires will be REORGANIZED-RESTRUCTURED into the first United Skaven Democratic Republic!>so this is how backstabbings die-kill, to loud-thunderous applause...
>>97336956What game?
>>97342916>Warp Stone>Skaven>What game?bruh
>>97342649For your average boots on the ground skaven slave, no. He knows there is no agriculture, cannibalism is now forbidden, raiding is now forbidden, he owns nothing he can use to trade with, and that there are better rats than himself that deserve priority in what stockpiles of non-rat jerky the skaven keep. Best he can do is find a cliff overlooking a pit of feces that may be used as fertilizer in the future, and jump. Its not because they are being rash but because rational thinking would quickly conclude the situation to be bleak and that self sacrifice is the best he can do to assure the collectives survival.
>>97343696This. The inverse of normal Skaven behaviour would be self-sacrifice for collective gain. Honestly, the Skaven might be more likely to take over the world now that they're into peace and love and carefully raising their offspring to ensure optimal development.
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97343051Women are basically pets you're not allowed to discipline in western culture.The least they can do is be cute.
>>97341888If you're going to get that autistic about realism then you might as well get rid of elves and dwarves too because that's even more improbable for entirely different races from entirely different origins from humans, and that often have rivalries with them to exist while also looking very similar to each other without having wiped the others out or turned them all into one singular race over time.
>>97341888The former because they're descendants of a furry commune that got a little crazy with genetic engineering. They were just made that way and it doesn't need to be any more than that because the chance of a player interacting with a level beyond that depth approaches zero.
>>97343311Most scientists believe Homo sapiens didn't necessarily hunt our cousins to extinction; we simply out-competed them for the same resources.>Social Resilience: Sapiens lived in larger, more interconnected social networks. This allowed for better trade, sharing of information, and collective survival during lean years.>Technological Advantage: We developed more advanced tools (like bows and arrows or sewing needles for better clothing) and potentially had lower caloric needs than the heavily muscled Neanderthals.>The "Slow Squeeze": As Sapiens moved into new territories, we took the best hunting grounds and caves. Our cousins were pushed into marginal, harsher environments where their smaller populations eventually dwindled to zero.Others were jus assimilated. We didn't just replace them; we absorbed them. Genetic testing has proven that early Sapiens bred with Neanderthals (in Europe) and Denisovans (in Asia).Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/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 notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit 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 diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more.

What is the counterculture of 2020s, that could be used as the basis for a contemporary countercultural tabletop game?Take the World of Darkness for example, which was so grounded in the the counterculture of the 90s that it comes across as dated and strange today. How would you update the World of Darkness so that it better represents the counterculture of today?Nightmare Mode: Talk about more than just politics. There's more to rebellion against the status quo and the prevailing social norm than who you vote for.
>>97343612Why thank you. My mic is trash, but such is life.Besides, main point is I'm not a spineless cuckold who can't say anything outside the mainstream opinion.

>>97343416is it shitposting to tell someone to clean a mold line or that his primer is fucked and he needs to strip it and do it again? like I said almost all feedback given to beginners is in the vein of "do this additional thing to make it look better" when the advice they need to be given is "work on improving this thing that you're already doing."
>>97343509A single guardsman.Paint him extremely well.
>>97343276I missed this, how was it done?
>>97343675>is it shitposting to tell someone to clean a mold line or that his primer is fucked and he needs to strip it and do it againAbsolutely not, I see this said here fairly often though? Even last thread we got a guy with uneven coats of paint/primer and anons pointed that out. Shitposting would be saying it looks dogshit without providing any advice on how to actually improve it. I'll try to keep what you're saying in mind next time I get a chance to give feedback though because you brought up valid points.
Here's that mind flayer from a bit back.Wondering if I should do another pass of white dot for stars after the glaze tuned it down
White Wolf died. But where's the replacements? DnD has hundreds of clones. But where are all the vampire/mage/werewolf clones? Is because DnD is more generic and easier to copy?
I've been gone a while, what are the main complaints against VtM5?A quick skim of the mechanics and a return to the old clans looks promising
>>97340563Cut a bunch of disciplines. Not even obscure ones, fucking vicissitude got cut.New hunger and blood potency mechanics that try to force "street level" play (and make no fucking sense).Humanity is now Mandatory and the systems surrounding it were made much more annoying.Overall the design is full of the badwrongfun philosophy of a certain old WW writer. It's not quiiiite as bad as W5 in that regard but it's still a game that hates your guts if you want to play anything but a thinblood prole working the nightshift somewhere.
>>97340589Thanks for your well articulated reply. Do Players' or other subsequent books add the missing clans and disciplines back?Personally I much prefer street level games, especially after coming off the back of nWoD and the high silliness it used to bring (out of our playerbase).
so apparently the order is>storyteller>storytelling>storypath>storypath ultra>>97340279>just read ~2000 pages of textyeah i will resort to that if i can't find the answers online. i got other things to do than read systems i might never ever get to play >>97340378apparently storyteller is the very first version too, which is impressive that they iterated on it and of the successors one is hated the other
>>97343530I hate to be the one to break this to you, but reading is the main way one learns games, it's kind of important, actually. If reading is so tough for you, you might want to reconsider your choice of hobby.

Falleen are a really interesting race and the highly inflammatory rumors that they use some unseen body chemical to influence non-falleen people around them is completely false and utterly speciesist behavior.>muh pheromonesThat's just bigotry from backwards outer-rim yokels who couldn't point out a Falleen if it was the only non-human in a lineup.I actually met Prince Xizor himself during trade negotiations as a representative for Kark MegaIndustries - Plaststeel Division and let me tell you he is an amazing man with nothing but the good of his people at heart.I was taken aback by his warm and friendly demeanor, despite the utter tragedy his people suffered during planet-wide pandemic that has decimated his people. It is with great pride I signed the declaration of intent for Kark MegaIndustries to sell a majority share of our projected Plasteel production for the coming ten years to Xizor Transport Systems for use in refugee relief work at a greatly reduced rate. This strategic partnership will ensure not just growth for both companies in the long term but also provide sustainable housing to the billions of refugees fleeing the ongoing terrorist activities in the outer-rim territories.
>>97343023>Corellian>Is the most American cuisine you’ve ever seenAddendum to this: if you ever see a “Corellian Salad” on a menu or are offered some from your host, just understand this: there are seemingly endless varieties of Corellian Salads, not one of which is actually what anyone would call a “salad”, not sure what one would call them… but certainly “salad” is not one that’d come to mind. Also, of all the varieties of Corellian Salads, a solid 75% of them you absolutely do not want.
