I'm new to wfb, what do you factor into your considerations when deciding whether to build muskets/xbows, or different melee weapon types? I understand xbows have longer range at the cost of lower AP, but in that case wouldn't, say, most dorf players use xbows on account of lack of cavalry and low mobility?
>>
>>97177629
I think crossbows are cool so that's what I modelled. In rare cases I might say they have handguns instead but that doesn't happen as much these days.
>>
>>97177629
There's no shame in bringing a unit of both. Sometimes you want crossbows and deploy them to counter skirmishers and light cavalry. While also having a block of handgunners to counter heavy knights/armoured infantry.
Monsters get the cannon.

I always found it weird that D&D was maligned as witchcraft, satanism, and anti-social. From what I can tell, TTRPGs just increase sociability, problem solving, conscientiousness, and probably improves self-concept through skills and self-esteem. Did any anons here live through Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons or the Satanic Panic? Sorry if this is boring or repetitive to others, but I want to study the social aspects of TTRPGs and how it exists as a subculture. I think, by and large, this is the best board on 4chan because people really care about this hobby and want to help others get into it. Despite the shitposting, I think the community is vibrant and the games I played through Find a Game threads were all filled with genuine, nice people. So it irks me that the Satanic Panic tried to paint subcultures as evil. Maybe it's because people think TTRPGs overlap with extreme music or just teenage entertainment in general.

Have you ever heard of a man named Jack Chick, OP? Did you ever hear of a comic named Dark Dungeons?

Genuinely, look it up. Soak in the fact that there were people who legitimately think this comic is what D&D is like, and there are still people who think that comic is representative of reality. Let your faith in humanity drop further.

>Despite the shitposting, I think the community is vibrant and the games I played through Find a Game threads were all filled with genuine, nice people.

They engage in a four hour long (IRL) investigation of a resort-turned-evangelical Christian retreat built on top of a failed Umbrella site.
After a ton of sleuthing and a couple accidents, they quicken the draining of the scenic pond which was being drained due to a suicide where a few peeps drove their jeep straight in and died.
Entire pump system / housing unit now deflooded in the hole filled with BOWs who were personnel of a rival corp who tried to poach Umbrella's Operation here.
BOWs are light-sensitive, so initially none seems amiss.
UBCS command orders them to investigate.
They do.
As the team rappels down into the hole, they begin working through the site and collecting what they can, when it becomes clear the BOWs are all over the place.
As they begin retreating, the natives get aggressive.

Turpentine is a stronger solvent than white spirit. Turps evaporates faster and leaves a more matte finish. Downsides are that it stinks to high heavens, is more toxic, and can yellow over time.

It's imo a bit redundant. The difference is not that major and the downsides are just too much. A good odorless thinner like Sansodor and ultra matte varnish is the best.

Warhammer: Age of Reckoning and earlier Norsca lore had Tzeentch as 'The Raven'.
Also I think it was partly done as misdirection about the identity of the advisor's 'pet' Corvid just in case anyone played Norsca as their first campaign.

Felt cute, decided to run through another retro licensed choose-your-own-adventure. But first...

You'd be surprised by what DPS those weapons can do in cqc, many people do exactly what you do, but I've found in MW5 in particular is VERY generous with ammo, so my build is to take a half ton of SRM/MG ammo, slap that as a heat sink, take the medium SB laser and SRM6 stream, put your weapon groups as follows.
>RA PPC FG1
>LA PPC FG2
>2 SBML/SRM6S FG3
>2 SL/2MG FG4
Stagger your PPC fire, don't just double fire as the resulting heat spike can fuck you and I've found that more heatsinks isn't always better, as unlike tabletop you don't instantly dump heat and you suffer no penalties for heat. When closing to ML/SRM range use those and stop using PPC's, and if overheating use the SL/MG's as you'll still run negative heat though slower and I've found that some damage is better than no damage.
>>
>>97177536
Realistically? Yeah. However the dumb as fuck floating crits make that a suicidal move.
>>
>>97177558
>MW5 Marauder
Take out the AC5 for a medium rifle and use that tonnage for more sinks and armor, the medium rifle is a AC10/PPC lovechild with downs syndrome but it's range does match PPC's and it's slow rate of fire actually helps diffuse the heat. Or just use LL/Heavy Rifle for a all rounder.

It's has a similar load out to the 3S. Downgraded the peepers to LL. Ditched the ac-10 and six pack. I assume because 4/6 ain't free. Would make for an ok succ war merc refit.
>>
>>97177622
>energy zombie
That's the point.
>physical
Yes, you're supposed to plink away with LL's while closing (also acts as a main guns for lighter targets) and then either charge or get into fisticuffs to punch the shit out of a target while firing your ML's and if you lose everything but the CT you still have 2ML/1SL and boots medium style. This is what a Banshee SHOULD have been, a skull helmed laser shreaking monster that is a distraction Carnifiex but is also dangerous straight up. Rather than a anemic sniper joke or the 3S(which is a great "normal" assault mech).

How to make a setting feel like it's not a not!x setting?
I recently got some of my friends into GURPS. They wanna play a fantasy setting for their first experience. I want to make sure the setting feels like it's own and doesn't feel like the characters are exploring not!europe or not!england. I've been told this was a bit of a problem in my previous pathfinder campaign
How do I make the setting feel like it's own thing without the players feeling like they are just going through the real world?

I don't think that is a great map (and representing it on a graph shows why). The top two players are (or can be) ~5 squares away from each other after deployment, while the bottom player will be at least ~9-10 squares away from anybody.

I dislike 3-player FFA games too, you really need a smart scenario to prevent SOME kind of team-up from happening. I don't even agree that a team-up is realistic, because gangs in that situation wouldn't have a perfect top-down view of the conflict and wouldn't be able to make unintuitive-but-strategic decisions like a player is able to.
