No, it's absolutely authoritative, which you'd know if you knew what that word meant. It's incredibly thorough and well researched and cites all its sources, which is crazy for a series of blog posts.

>>97223415
It's almost entirely bullshit and relies on "sources" that are even more bullshit. It's so fundamentally wrong on so many basic points that it's almost laughable how you think it could trick anyone who even is vaguely aware of the genesis of the OSR. You'd genuinely have to be a complete idiot to think it's even moderately convincing.

I've seen Flat Earthers come up with more believable documents, complete with dozens of official looking citations, and all just because they think it would be really funny to try and dupe gullible people and to demonstrate how easy it is for people to believe what they want to believe. And, here you are, being even worse than them, because you're not doing it for laughs, you're just a dumb cunt.

To be honest, in the DW campaign I'm in, I would have totally thought that was cool. I get people saying "bah! 10 corruption points is so punishing!" but the limit is 100 and even in a long deathwatch campaign, it will take forever for it to matter. I slightly agree with WP success punishing you for having high WP but I think it would give away the hallucination to easily for what it is.

That's a good point actually, Maybe I just don't give them out often enough, but even in the longest 40k campaigns I've ever run or played not a single character ever acculumated enough insanity or corruption points for them to actually become an issue

We play all the missions except Take and Hold, for obvious reasons. You do place the objective markers before rolling for deployment map and to see who gets to pick a table side, right? And in the mission where there isn't a single centre objective marker the objectives have to be at least 12" from the table edges, meaning they can't even be inside the deployment zone when the deployment map ends up being Dawn of War, which is half of the time.
So far the people who tried placing objectives in a deployment zone ended up losing the roll-off to pick first, and ended up losing badly because of it. So now everybody places their objectives somewhere in no mans land, to make sure they can get to it regardless of the deployment map.

Units in rhinos can easily get a charge turn two, turn one if the opponent moves even a little out of their deployment zone (or if they're WS)
If you're playing with the recommended amount of terrain there should be more than enough for units to hide behind as they advance, and especially to be safe in their own deployment zone.
Units that aren't Heavy in an assault vehicle also have an incredible threat range, 10" land raider move 7" unit move and 3" set up is already 20" range, and that's without adding the base size. The only way to stop that is going first, and even then land raiders have become durable enough that killing one is far from guaranteed. Add some rhino rush units besides it, and there are just too many units which can't all be shot at and dealt with.

Then there's also the inherent issue that the shooting phase happens after the movement phase. If somebody has their unit standing on an objective, enemy units can't move in range of it even if the unit ends up being shot off the objective. I've seen legion players who only took shooting lose to SA because of that fact alone.

>>97223367
With the BL slop nu-lore? No. Chaos has become actively debilitating instead of empowering, and all the traitor primarchs were broken incompetent leaders more occupied with fighting each other rather than the loyalist from the very start.

In the old lore the traitors had a genuine chance at winning the heresy, back when Horus was actually a strategic mastermind and charismatic leader, and Chaos made followers serving its cause actually stronger instead of retarded and weak.

I have only taken part in one christmas themed game and it was not a good game at all. It seems like it was roughly ripped off from some podcast christmas game the gm sent everyone ahead of time, ended up being a railroad with obviously no mechanical inputs based on dice at the end, didn't really feel like a game. A bit of silly fun being joke animal characters and everyone played along to not hurt his feelings but it was not a thing I would have done if I could have avoided it and holyshit did it take too long.

And what you're overlooking is that by no metric anyone has been able to produce, was 3.5 a failure.

>>97223312
Long term sales. Design turns too many people off. 3.5 was not capable of holding itself up without MtG money backing it up. That's why we got 4E. The fact that it repeated itself word for word in Pathfinder, with late release experimental material prior to PF2 resembling that game far more than it did PF1 and then a total break from PF1, is proof enough.

Nta but it's not stupidity but misdirection and maliciousness. 5e was making bank in his own merits... if it wasn't a product of a subsidiary company of a bigass corpo. In that context your product doesn't have to make enough money to sustain itself and make also a cut of it as profit, it has to GROW INDEFINITELY. The inane buzzwords vomited by corpodrones (like "supercharging the brand" and similar shit) translated in human readable language roughly mean "we're going to try and jump over the sharks with this bullshit, if we fail we can still make a fuckload of money by selling the sharks leftovers as chum for fishing", so basically the product success is a bonus that allows for more daring bullshits, it's not expected to necessarily work but to allow for extracting as much profit as possible even from failure.

Ironically, bringing Guilliman and Lion back is the most pro-fascist movement they could take. No longer are the problems of the Imperium due to their totalitarian ways. No longer is the decay caused by their dogma and their superstition. They just needed a Big Man. A true Superhuman Leader chosen by God Himself, that with an Iron Will and a Wise Mind slashes the rotting bureaucracy powered by mere humans. Mankind cannot rule itself without the paternal guide of the Primarchs. Horus was right all along.

I will add that even this has nuance.

For one, while it is true that "go Renegade against the conspiracy that made you" is a recommended starting point, it is far from the only one. You might have Diverged thanks to an entirely different conspiracy, due to a freak accident, or because of your own wacky self-experimentation.

For two, most conspiracies of the Web of Pain are indeed super-duper evil. Thus, Renegades fighting against them are "good guys" by default, while Devoted are positioned as "bad guys." But many Devoted are coerced or outright enslaved into service.

Further complicating matters, some conspiracies are more neutral-ish, and a rare handful are morally and ethically upstanding. The Standing 5 Chinkon Collective and its Devoted are earnestly, genuinely trying to keep all of Japan safe from otherworldly threats. It is theoretically possible to play someone who goes Renegade against the Chinkon Collective, but if so, such a Renegade would absolutely not be fighting the good fight.

>>97221178
Indeed, this degree of nuance is one of the major reasons why DTR is such a resounding success, while aforementioned BTP, which plays at nuance by never really committing to anything (i.e. many beasts say they exist to teach humanity lessons through nightmares, but in practice this is mostly just an excuse to justify their innately harmful existences) as a means of trying to cover up how incredibly shallow it actually is, sucks its own ass so hard it turns inside out.

>>97221178
>>97221242

Yet another point of nuance.

Even in the best-case scenario of Renegades fighting some super-duper evil conspiracy, there are still so many innocent dupes and catspaws in the way. Let us take Standing 3 Corvalis Chemicals, for example, a stereotypically evil chemical company.

Most of the people working there are simply wage slaves. They may be dimly aware that they are working for some "evil" corporation, but then, what huge corporations are not? Do these people really deserve to die when a bunch of Renegades storm a conspiracy Node with grenades, Storm Caller, and other devastating AoE attacks?

This is precisely the point of Deep Dive's Kindly Ones, a Standing 7 conspiracy. They are dedicated to taking down the rest of the Web of Pain. Some are moderates, and some even try to eliminate evil conspiracies peacefully. The rest of the Kindly Ones are extremists who absolutely do not care about collateral damage, and think nothing of blowing up Nodes and everyone inside them.

>You don't put more strength into your draw, that's some video games bullshit. Once you hit the strength requirements to reliably draw the bow, all that's left is hitting more precise.
Technically there's complicated strain dynamics where at the lower edge of being able to draw the bow it's difficult to not tremble and surplus leads to growing endurance. And then you get the funkiness of adjustable draw-weight bows, which include the relatively simple Penobscot type in addition to the super-complicated compound designs.
