>>97331207Looking at the recent arcane journals I don’t have much faith in whoever is in charge of writing for tows rules.
>>97331236Could be worse, could be the complete joke that is Horus Heresy journals.
>>97331264GW loves selling you £20 books with no content
>>97331215If they’re going to get anything it would be during the end of edition campaign. Aside from that it’s usually a one and done sort of deal with the battletome. Same deal for 40k. Also it’s been speculated that 5th will have a heavy emphasis on the elves, where as 4th is focusing on the dwarves.
>>97331028I think 4ed was the testing ground of 40k>>97331121Doubt it, TOW is also selling well thanks to the interoperability of the new minis, cathay and marauders are both usable for AOS, the next refresh will be Chaos warrior, another kit usable in AOSBut the same is also happening with AOS new rangesContrary to popular belief AOS and TOW are not in a competition RIGHT NOWps AOS with a shaky edition is still selling better than TOW, but TOW also have a shaky edition..Also both AOS and TOW players are on the low end of the spectrum compared to 40k, the painters / collectors are the majority of the sales, which was an huge problem for TOW as no one wanted the old models, they did fix it tho, by going hard on range refreshes.
previous: >>97290097Pastebin: https://pastebin.com/h8Tz2ze8Survey results: https://pastebin.com/YJPZ44rqThread Question:what is your stonemaier-tier concept for a sure money board game megahit?
>>97330252Depends what you want, you see a lot of hate towards what they are here because they require a ton of time commitment, but I think campaign games have the issue where a lot of them are really good but time is a bitch to get to finish them.When a video game takes 100 hours, its super easy to put 1-2 hours a day without affecting your schedule much, where as its tough as shit to get 3+ adults to meet up enough times to play a campaign game, and STILL play the other games in your collection.Also Tanares is cool.
>>97328155When it's just me and my brother we typically play the coop, which is fine, you get to experience the systems (aside from attacking and stealing other player's stuff). It becomes a straight action economy puzzle at that point. You're just hunting as many cresters as you can without getting caught at awkward moments by red/white ones before you're prepared, or getting stuck out at sky and dying to tanking morale.It's absolutely playable, but if the theme isn't doing a lot of work for you I can see it getting boring quickly.Obviously with more players you then have the race for crester hunting and players opportunistically (or serialy...) raiding eachother. The map becomes a lot more busy and interesting, and there's plenty of room for people to be dicks to eachother (so a conflict averse group might get toxic). Its easy to see the heart of the game lies here.
>>97319529Wingspan was the game that made me finally realize how much I hate European-style board games. My criteria is basically this--by the last third of the game, I had better have a realistic chance of winning or already eliminated.
>>97331091That's a rather loose criterium, a lot of ameritrash also falls into that
>>97330107No, if you don't like Race then Ares doesn't bring much more to the table

>>97328389But what about the voice that says: "You could do this in a different way", that made you develop homewbrew stuff.>>97329250What do you mean by the point of it all? Like it is pointless for you to play solo TTRPGs?
>>97327196>>97327781Sorry I haven't tried them yet, couldn't say.
>>97326626Well, just had another character break through! Let's see if he can make it to town. If so, can he round up some other adventurers?
>>97330455Aaand he died on his way to town. A swarm of Stirges came up over a hill on day one. He fought valiantly, and got their numbers down but they managed to peck him to death...
>>97330897ain’t that always the way. thanks for sharing, anon. godspeed with your next character.
How would it play?I imagine everything you do would end in some kind of comedic failure.
>>97324800Honestly it would probably look something like the tigtone Adventure that was published
>>97325164Good answer but there is also Human Occupied Landfill. Even the name fits ATHF perfectly.
>>97330586Human Occupied Landfill would be a candidate if it was meant to be playable and not mostly a joke at the reader's expense. Though the objective of finding the stupidest way to die from that book would fit an ATHF game perfectly
>>97330600>a joke at the reader's expenseWhat a queer little Reddit thing to say
the object of the game is to find parking
Can your party be trusted around surrendering enemies without committing even a single war crime?

My players think the sessions are too long. My players are mad at me for how long the sessions are. I am upset with them for being mad.Just tell me how you feel. It's not like I can read minds. 4 of the players' voices sound the same when tired as when they are vigorous. We play in voice chat on a VTT, so it's not like I can look at them to see how tired they are. Sure, as the DM, I have knowledge of what is coming up, but clearly I'm not good at estimating how long things take. I'm first time DM, give me some grace. Hard rule from now on. End the session right as combat breaks out. Start each session with combat.

>>97322102>Might there be a Lemurian phenomena that's similar? Would be worth exploring in further writing.Unless you were referencing the Juggernaut directly, its already in the game. The view I had of Lemuria initially was pretty anthetical to this kind of thing, however, I don't think it would be something widely used, or culturally encouraged, since the Cultivation mindset in the warrior caste requires you to pity that the weak cannot be strong opponents to you (which is completely different from taking pity *on* the weak, mind you) rather than outright hate them. Degens would be free game, however, its obviously their fate not to amount to anything anyways.
>>97322961>Strengh 10Does that mean it automatically passes strength tests? Shouldn't it be Strength 9?
>>97330124Very few units have had stats set up to 10, the Jugg and Nap being those that I remember right now (Nap with Awareness and Discipline 10). While at 10, you automatically pass any test, yes, but not necessarily win every face-to-face roll. > picrelNew map! I've checked the Taiping book and will upload it as well as the tokens, there's a few things I'll want to change or clarify in the rules, still making a list, but it'll 100% work in the meantime. >>97314298Alright, it'll be an econ unit, the carts will be random, its the best way to do it without turning the train into a more limited tank, and I want to avoid that. All the carts will have some transport capability, you might just not want to spawn your soldiers in the dining cart, but that's what you rolled this turn and you need the soldiers so... that kind of choice. >>97315417What I'm thinking is that the rails will be split off and set in the regular Structures section of the rulebook, so even if you don't have access to the Locomotive, you could lay tracks as part of an econ engine, and I'm thinking of putting the handcar >>97302625 as a merc special unit, since that shouldn't really be restricted, especially in a setting that takes place mostly in caves. The rails would be something like "gain X silver per Track token connected and controlled", with the exception that the player who layed them controls them by default if they connect to his deployement zone(?). The Locomotive itself would grant Silver from exiting Carts from the maps, with bonuses set for exiting quickly and off non-deployment map edges.
>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.

>>97328749>>97329103updated and clarified it a bit. The idea is that you sacrifice 12" of range and SHRAPNEL but turn the Artillery Witch from a damage dealer to a control piece. -- Mind Bomb --Cost: 2 GLORYMay use this instead of casting an Infernal Bomb.1-Handed, 24", BLAST 3", IGNORE COVER, IGNORE ELEVATED POSITION, IGNORE LONG RANGE, RELOAD, SCATTER.INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS: Add -1 DICE to the next Success Roll taken for enemy models that are hit by the blast.FROM MY MIND TO YOURS: If a model was the target for an Mind Bomb and hit by it, or if the Mind Bomb scattered and the target point was on the model’s base, roll 3D6 and add all 3 dice together. Any +INJURY DICE or -INJURY DICE that applied to the Injury Roll will apply normally, except that you pick the 3 highest or lowest dice in the roll instead of the 2 highest or lowest. If the injury check is a Minor Hit result you may move the model D6" in addition to dealing 1 Blood Marker. The move must be in a straight line, but can be in any direction, and can be used to make the model move with 1" of an enemy or retreat, and to Climb a sheer surface, Jump across a gap, or Jump Down. If the injury roll is a Down or Out of Action result you may choose to, in addition to the effects for Minor Hit, inflict a 6" area around the model where all actions are considered RISKY until the Artillery Witch's next activation, after which the effect dissipates.Injury Rolls for other models caught in the Infernal Bomb’s Blast are made normally.
>>97329226Ironically I think it would fit better in new Antioch, they're the control factionOr maybe knights of avarice, the got fun similar tools
>>97329347The effects are sort of a mix of Heretic Priest's Puppet Master and the Chorister's -DICE aura
Now that the dust has settled, why did Trench Crusade flop?

>>97306584when you were referring to the purple/violet similarity, were you referring to them as energies (when they are upside down and all you see is the bottom stat symbol background), them in play (their border colors), or both?I looked at the cards and noticed there is an error on my end, where the "violet" (magenta purple) stat symbol color is still purple or near purple. the border colors are more differentiatable though.I was messing with the purple/violet colors up until right before printing, trying to coordinate their clear differentiation due to similarity in appearance.I believe this also occurred on 1 or 2 of the sub types of the red cards border colors.In any case, i think i'm going to remove the dedicated "story" (silver) type altogether, and convert it to a meta type (any card can be played as a story/narrative element into the narrative zone (keeping the narrative zone and mechanics), sort of like energies. this will also free up the silver color, which I can assign to psi, and that should solve all the color problems. silver also makes a kind of sense with psi.this will also allow me to assign a proper violet to what is called "violet" now, but is more of a magenta purple.it solves all the color issues and streamlines/simplifies gameplay all at once.Comment too long.
