>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. For posterity's sake, the old mega will still be kept active even if it's unlikely to need updating: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQComment too long.

>>97345931>>97345938Read this in the voice of the TC youtuber.Very close to the cadence and flow of the lore.>>97346688NTA, but enjoy the game, anon. Some of the scenes, like the pacing throught the trenches and the penitents walking to the front, were emblematic of the lore.

>>97346452>>97346478Ill give that a try, I just wanted to be able to see the bottem with skulls and what not. I fucked around with 3d printing for so long I just really didnt want to have another liquid resin mess to clean up and didnt know if there was an easier alternative or somthing to pick up at flgs. Think blood angle red contrast would do well with a light coating?>>97346463Weather and patience willing. Last time I tried acoustic resin setting, my item was covered in debris and knocked over by small animals (I live in the woods) and was still tacky.
>>97346603>I can work from homeThat's not meaningful on it's own as a statement.I too work from home, and I couldn't possibly be gone for 3 days in a row because the cattle would be starving.

Are subclasses required? Are there any first-party ones that aren't in the PHB? These rogue ones are kinda ass for what I'm building.
>>97346764Yes. Yes. You're playing a rogue, it's going to be ass anyway.
>>97346764What hot garbage are you making that you would think a subclass is a strict negative?
>>97346764There's no option to not take a subclass, but they're also all entirely free, so it's not like it's gonna be a downside to whatever you're doing.And there are non-PHB subclasses for most things, but you'd probably have better luck asking your DM for what books he's allowing, because some of them would require conversion.
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?
>>97344409>The actual definition is obscure slang>Reading is too hard, I need someone to spoonfeed my opinions to me.>I would have to literally read every single page of every single book to come to any kind of conclusion for myselfYeah bud, you should just stop. Gming is going to be too much of a mental load for you.
>>97344756>what is a hyperbole>ignoring the valid part where feeling of a system stems from experiencelooks like you're fishing. also why would i take your advise? you seem to have no insight into anything at all
>>97344795Fishing? What are you talking about? I'm not on a lake with a pole trying to catch fish, are you using some kind of obscure slang?
>>97344850no you're under a bridge weaving baskets. must be my eyesight
>>97340589H5 and W5 somehow manage to be worse at enforcing street level play and no fun allowed stuff, so really I suppose it's just the new writers must also hate the more gonzo side of the setting. W5 in particular makes me mald as I enjoyed Werewolf for what it was, and W5 is less Werewolf than V5 is Vampire.>>97340688Well because the system is actually pretty open-ended and is technically a sequel to the older editions your DM is free to pick and choose what he likes to add and use. There are also no missing clans or disciplines technically, the retards at the helm decided anything flavorful or unique should either get smushed together (Obtenebration and Necromancy into Oblivion, making every Lasombra a necromancer) or made into an amalgam ability like Vicissitude being protean + domination. As for clans, they either got renamed (Setites into Ministry) or they got merged into the Hecata for all the necromancer clans. It's incredibly retarded though and you're free to ignore it of course, but the system is worse in general. Still nothing stopping you from using your old books of course.
Douchemachine used to be the largest competition to GW. Now look at it and laugh
>>97344652Might be. I think it's mainly from how the website selling Cryx forces describes their situation as>"Stirred to rise from its deathly slumber through insidious bargains wrought by the Orgoth, a terrible new power stirs on the edge of the Iron Kingdoms."Which could either mean they dug up more Orgoth tech, or like how other people are interpreting it to men they made a bargain with the Orgoth Sea Raiders to conquer the mainland together.
>>97332398Like >>97333357 said, Steamforged officially announced that a new faction based on the Protectorate will be showing up this year.
>>97344128There's a ton of lore for MK4, its just all paywalled in the app. Which, I know a lot of people are mad about, but I mean, come on, is paying $15 for a month's access and downloading all the stories any worse than paying for several $15+ books for the stories? Or just do the yearly to get your uber monstrosity and take your time downloading the lore. Still stuck reading off of a screen, which sucks, but better then no lore.
>>97344573They are. Orgoth killed Blightergast and gave his Anthanc to Toruk as a trade for an alliance.
>>97335452GW also had heavy competition from the "plastic crack" boardgame segment like CMON, but Trump's tariffs have basically killed that since its essentially impossible to manufacture them in the US.

>>97344377And what's that got to do with GW specialist games?
>>97343089Loving playing Snotlings so far. I love having a swarm of the 'worst' players with the lowest strength, worst armor, and a only a sluggish 5 movement. I love being able to reliably dance through defensive screens, attempting fingers crossed throw team mates and bombs, and swarming downed challengers to mercilessly foul. You can call me an autist, but I love making little screams and death-gurgles when the little bastartds get smooshed.2 trolls and 2 wagons? It's just too fun.

Is this model as 100% going to snap as it looks? Do you pin that tiny support?

Honestly I feel like drawing perfect resources off the bat in the early years is such a curse, because I want to save them which cripples my early game resource efficiency. I almost wish they were only added to the deck for level 2+ monsters only

This one came from the Solo movie no one saw.
Have anyone ever featured or encountered a C'tan or C'tan Shard in any of your games? I'm reading through The Outer Reach and it just doesn't really do much to flesh them out or how to roleplay them. What are they like, what are their goals and motivations beyond being, you know, Pokémon? The C'tan have always struck me as being the more Lovecraftian beings compared to the Chaos Gods, being more ambiguously evil entities rather than Chaos' cackling evil.
Does anyone know where to find a good game for dark heresy? My local groups gay and just wants to play shadowrun and others have kids that eat up their time
>>97346680A couple times as a generic boss, because the smaller the shard, the less of a personality it has They're kind of like the flood, a shard is like an infection form, empty headed and single-minded about finding more of themselves, but combine enough shards and you get a Gravemind...that mainly cares about finding more of themselves.In my last series, I had shards so small that they could be used as Stands. One player had a C'tand of Nyadra'zatha, though, and that was fun to see. It was a little bomb dude that caused havoc in fights. Those C'tands caused the players a ton of problems, though, because of everyone else who had and used them. C'tand masters are drawn to one another, after all.
>>97346715Comparing them to the Gravemind is a good one, but I feel that kind of... I dunno, part of me wants to say that it's not enough. Like, I don't want it to be some mindless disease. I'd want the Nightbringer to speak the language of death and the dying, I'd want the Deceiver to do tricky shit and wax poetic about the concept of lying. They should be more than just evil being that's trying to recollect itself.
I know there's Everyone Is John, is there anything like picrel? A lighter Fiasco-style game, mixed with Monster of the Week? (Ideally not PbtA please.)Also what are /tg/'s thoughts on SP? Both the comic and the movie.
>>97344560You don't need a system for slice of life. Just do freeform and maybe a random roll for vibes here and there.I never felt the urge to find out what scott pilgrim is.
>>97344560Slugblasters is basically Scott Pilgrim if he was a skater bro instead of a band kid
>>97344560Literally none of those games are compatible nor slice of life, and neither is Scott Pilgrim.>>97346470Slugblaster isn't remotely analogous to Scott Pilgrim, either.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere. And as we enter this happiest and newest of years, remember: 2e was never an old-school game, bait is for reporting, and fish is for smoking! Happy new year, grogs!Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

>>97346532Raging hormones is a term people use, and underaged is to emphasize how immature he's been acting like his character.
>>97346667"underaged" is redundant paired with "teen" and "teen" already implies hormones being fucked up, putting it all together and drawing empasis to it makes it sound like anon is just vomiting porn tags.
