>>97346928Definitely the Cicada. Feels like a comfy patrol mech.
>>97346928Not the most obvious choice but Carrion Crow. Fast on the ground at up to 14 MP, CERPPC+Capacitor gives it AC20 levels of damage at extreme ranges, Twin Heavy Medium lasers discourage close range attacks too. Only problem is that it's insanely valued in BV at 2397.
>>97346548>>97346570This is great info I probably wouldn't have figured out by myself tonight. Thank you>>97346778I've been eyeing those as well. Based on the ad it looks like it might be the best bang for your buck. Did you go for the grippy or standard version?
>>97346818You can detect its jump signature for a few weeks after it leaves, but it doesn't tell you where it went, and isn't so unique that you'd be able to pick it out again if there's a lot of traffic. If they went to the middle of nowhere and your pursuing ships also got there in time, they could pick up the signature again so you at least know you're on the trail, but it's going to be a crapshoot every time. It's not perfect even if you do find a signature since it only tells you roughly how large the jumpship is. Great if you're after something uniquely small or large, not helpful for everything in the middle.

>>97344408Wikipedia will get you participants. As for heraldry, it isn’t that common before the 13th C and even then, we rarely know the arms even for big names. There are usually fictive arms for the earlier period made up in the later middle ages, if you aren’t asspained to the Nth degree about historical accuracy.There is the additional difficulty in that the eastern mediterranean societies the Latins found themselves in did not themselves use arms as in the west, even much later than this - this may have meant that local Latin settlers felt little pressure to take arms as it was not the local ‘fashion’. Sorry it’s a ballache, but I hope it helps. I think it means that you can actually be quite free in your painting without being implausible or even inaccurate.

At what age do magic users start training in your setting?
Depends. Wizards ideally start as soon as the kid has learned to read and write, while shamans and the like either follow whatever local tradition they might have, or get snatched by fairies and come back as raving magic lunatics two hundred years later. Priests begin training whenever, it doesnt really matter; if you can get a god to think you're his nigga, you get magic powers.
Holy fuck, this looks like SHIT
>>97345546That's likely puckee, he's samefagged before.>>97345073Puckee is a known redditor who has spammed his commissions for 4-5 years as the other anon has pointed out, his threads are all low quality with vague questions just to so he can post his commissions. At one point, he had at least 3 threads up at all times and posted his commissions weekly in various threads. See his "lich" commission he spammed throughout late 2021 to 2022 throughout that year almost weekly.https://archive.4plebs.org/_/search/image/0uAsjic8baHEf61Jm2Wu6Q%3D%3D/page/4/He has also spammed his commissions on other threads like the draw thread, trying to pass his paid commissions as fills.https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/92628290/#92687500Anons picked up on his spam in 2022 and he has also infested the character art threads since then, posting at least a few of his commissions in every thread.https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/84892301/#84901094

>>97346924If you saw a midge walking around with a dog skull as a yarmulke, would you say anything? Why should anyone care?
>>97346924Why would anyone waste time asking some random jagoff sellsword why he wears something ridiculous? The answer is obvious, "so he'll look more impressive and memorable to potential employers".
>>97345937atleast with online random play I have 4 different games to choose from so atleast one works out
>>97346217The problem with this argument is that 5E is a lot closer to a simplified 3.X than it is to 4E.
>>97346892>"here's your state mandated story arc where everything is about you and based on your backstory"I think the issue would be if a DM did the entire arc all at once rather than do a small piece on occasion to mix characters' special moments with what's going on with the campaign.
I have a bit of an inane question for the peanut gallery. Do you have a favorite thing that you'd never actually play/play as?For example, I just realized that I really fucking love the Samedi/Cappadocian clan/bloodline of Vampire: The Masquerade.But I don't think I'd ever consider playing one, and I'd likely opt to play a Malkavian instead under virtually all circumstances, or a Tremere. Samedi doesn't even register on the list of characters I'd like to play, even when I do have concepts I'd include if I were the ST/GM.
probably the Upper Hand from Jade Empire for the Xbox.
>>97343390A dhampir. I think they're cool thanks to D and Alucard but I'd never consider playing one in a game.
>>97343390An AD&D 2e Paladin. Even if I didn't end up at a table with a DM trying to make me fall, I think I'd end up doing it myself. I'm too rash and impulsive for the class, I think, to live up to the morality required of it.
Over Christmas at about 3am I suddenly had the coolest concept for a cleric of loviatar who I now desperately want to play, but I'm pretty sure any campaign would drop me the moment I said "cleric of loviatar."Just let me be a little edgelord as a treat
>>97343390I like the carefree brutes that just bulldoze through their problems willy-nilly. I never play one, because everything I'd want to demolish is either far out of my character's league or would create 10x more problems for the party than it would solve.
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.
>>97339717But nobody these days even likes Werewolf: the Apocalypse.
>>97346982I like Werewolf: the Apocalypse.
>>97346900An aversion to the traditional late-20th-century work-life balance, disillusionment with traditional late-20th-century media (television) in favour of new digital media (streams and podcasts) and radical honesty about their beliefs and interests.Being bold and outspoken, searching for digital media that compounds their views and cringing at the thought of letting wageslavery define them are traits shared by all of the countercultural groups you listed and more. Which is reasonable, as at least two out of three of those traits are shared with the countercultures of prior generations.
>>97346982>>97347000I also like Werewolf the Apocalypse.
>>97346982I like Werewolf: the Apocalypse more than any other World of Darkness game.

Finished the Sergeant for my Britlist. Lieutenant is up next. This one's head is actually from a Victrix kit so it's a touch larger than his mens' heads. For a sergeant-type that works I think. I tried to get the pose like the unit art, but the arms weren't quite up to snuff and I did not feel like completely reposing them. Quite pleased nonetheless with it.

>>97342247I second the other Anon suggesting barbarian. It kind of sucks that you'll be playing an unarmed barbarian but not using the dedicated unarmed instinct (Animal Instinct, which is incredible), but it's not the end of the world. Animal instinct gives you access to damage dice up to two sizes larger than your d6 jaws, which is about +2 damage on average, increasing another die size at level 7, but Dragon Instinct's flat elemental rage damage is reliably higher than Animal Instinct's rage damage bonus, so it sorta evens out. The thing that catches my eye about the Dragonblood ancestry is Tenacious Jaws. Barbarians are good grapplers, especially in a free archetype game where they can easily steal fighter feats, and Tenacious Jaws allows you to blast enemies that you have grappled with your breath weapon and force them to take a result one step lower than their roll. Not only is that incredibly heavy metal (pic related), but it's something you can build around. For ancestry feats, you're pretty much locked into Draconic Aspect at level 1 to get your jaws, then Breath of the Dragon via the Ancestral Paragon general feat at 3, followed by Tenacious Jaws at 5. Because we're building around the breath, you also 100% want Formidable Breath at 9 to increase the damage die size, and I'd round it out with Deadly Aspect at level 13. Class feat-wise, I feel like the progression for your free archetype is fighter (to immediately grab Combat Grab and Reactive Strike) into Martial Artist (to grab Follow-up Strike). Key barbarian feats are Dragon's Rage Breath (might as well double up on breath weapons) and Thrash (something to do with your third action when you've got somebody grabbed). Not a bad idea to grab Snagging Strike from fighter at some point too.I figure the basic idea is Strike/Snagging Strike > Combat Grab > Thrash (on hit) or Follow-up Strike (on miss). If they haven't escaped by your next turn, blast them, then Strike them again. Rinse and repeat.
>>97344800They mentioned in a post that the Hellfire Crisis logo shouldnt be on the mockup, its not tied to the whole thing. Just Lost Omens: High Seas.
>>97299610Not gonna lie, this whole group has been fantastic for translation from the initial lore into PF, the basic guidelines I was given for this one was basically: girl falls into a portal in a cave somewhere, ends up near the River Styx, gets drafted by Psychopomps to guide lost souls to the afterlife.Like, the build practically writes itself with how it matches up so well, which is a shock since apparently the streamer in question has never done tabletop before.

That or resolve it narratively, scraping the barnacle off with a nearby asteroid and a good piloting check is neat enough, if excruciatingly anticlimactic.>>97346905>giant exploding space jellyfish (see BFG Armada)Vidya or tabletop? Tell me more.
>>97347031Vidya. Flocks of them randomly appear as a migratory map hazard, and serve as the naval equivalent of exploding barrels. They're usually too slow and spread out to affect the battlefield, but sometimes the stars align and the enemy flies a battleship too close to a cluster of them right as your nova cannons finish reloading.
>>97347057I was almost excited there for a second. Ah well.
>>97344527>>Alien.>This got flanderized down into "All aliens are ebil, and must be killed on sight or you're a sinner."Prohibitions on interacting with Xenos were presumably in place during the Great Crusade, since that's when the Imperium started handing out Warrants of Trade. It doesn't make sense to have a license to break a rule unless the rule exists first. That is, of course, different than mandating xenocide, but it does imply the Imperial regarded aliens as a problem pretty much from the beginning.>around m36 with the official adoption of the Imperial Cult.You're off by about 4 millennia here. The Ecclesiarchy came into existence around M32, and presumably had to be extremely widespread even before that in order for such a thing to happen. M36 was when it got so corrupt and destructive that the Imperium had a civil war to put limits on it.
>>97347074>Prohibitions on interacting with Xenos were presumably in place during the Great CrusadeRogue Traders fulfilled a different role in 30k. They were scouts, spreading the good word and reporting back to crusade fleets so they didn't have to go in blind and get their faces eaten. Like a herald if you gave them a small military formation and told them to head west until they found something neat.>The Ecclesiarchy came into existence around M32The Temple of the Saviour Emperor came into being during M32, had power struggles with the Administratum, then did a Happening in M36 with Vandire, who started as the High Lord of the Administratum and then coup'd the Ecclesiarchy. The power of two High Lordships is what made Vandire so threatening, and his actual fucking insanity is what made him dangerous. The fallout of the resulting religious schism was seized on as an excuse to shackle the Ecclesiarchy.It's also important to note that The Howling, an event in 401.M36 which utterly gutted the Imperium's astropaths and cut a great deal many worlds off from the wider Imperium, had a far greater effect on said Imperium's degeneration than the Reign of Blood, which had ended nearly three hundred years beforehand.None of this, of course, excuses 30k marines using the term 'heretic', because the Siege of Terra concluded in 014.M31.
Rebellions in 40k usually happen on a single world, or within a very limited region, and are often isolated before they can spread.In Star Wars, the rebels are far weaker than the Empire, but because hyperdrives are easy to obtain and relatively safe, they can carry out guerrilla tactics. By contrast, the Imperium in 40k doesn’t have a rebel problem as severe as the Galactic Empire did, because warp travel is terrible and can't really do it without a Navigatorso if the Imperium ever figures out a truly safe form of faster-than-light travel, it would face horrific rebel problems all across the galaxy.
>>97345127This logic is backwards, I don't get you.In SW Rebels are an irrelevant nuisance constantly on the run and unable to hold any ground. Explicitly because Empire can respond to any threat quickly due to fast and reliable FTL method.Rebellions are far worse in 40k because travel and communication is so shit, slow and unreliable that Imperium can't respond to threats fast enough. Normal rebellions by uppity governors, Genestealer Cults and Chaos happen all the time explicitly because of this. They happen, succeed and then create their own empires. Just like rebellions in real life succeed when empires are far away from source of rebellion and can't respond fast and accurately enough. Most notable example being USA.Rebels are quite literally a bigger issue in 40k
>>97345127I think, but can't confirm, that it was hinted at the DAOT having a way better form of FTL travel. Warp travel seems to be the Emperor jury rigging a bunch of left over crap to jump-start the Great Crusade, like how Titans are essentially repurposed Pesticide spray bottles.
>>97347060I don't think so since part of the fall of humanity was the warp chaos created by slaanesh's imminent birth, which fucked up connections and space travel. At the very least it was still vulnerable to warp fuckery.Not discounting the men of iron, of course.
>>97347087I just remember really old lore suggesting it, back in the days when the Emperor was implied to be a disgusting mutant who crawled out of a DAOT lab.
>>97345127>so if the Imperium ever figures out a truly safe form of faster-than-light travel, it would face horrific rebel problems all across the galaxy...Why? I don't see the connection between the two. >da emperor99% of all humans in the imperium will never do any kind of FTL travel. Short of the FTL travel being zero cost teleportation, any kind of FTL would still be monopolized and controlled by the imperium, becauase they have all the money, resources and military might. Worship of the emperor wouldn't stop either, he would remain a god, he just wouldn't actually be doing anything.> By contrast, the Imperium in 40k doesn’t have a rebel problem as severe as the Galactic EmpireDo the words "Horus Heresy" mean nothing to you?
