I don't really like the lightshow wings too much. I would just default to insect wings because they look cooler.

>No doubt. It’d probably going to be near the end of the chain before you’re finally comfortable in the role.

I am not sure getting comfortable being worshiped is a good thing actually. Getting used to it is too close to coming to expect it and that leads to all sorts of troubles.

>A sensible idea, but remember that heaven has ways to detect god’s reincarnation. Your jumper might want to lay low, but they’ll probably have several angels at the door within a few hours.

I did not know this actually. I am not super knowledgeable about DxD. I use Rias' pics because she looks awesome (Except in the newer anime where she looks derpy). Could you elaborate more?

>I am not sure getting comfortable being worshiped is a good thing actually.
I disagree. If you’re a god, you need to learn to think of yourself as one. Being in denial of what you are is never healthy.

>Getting used to it is too close to coming to expect it
I feel like you should elaborate on what you mean by expecting it.

>I use Rias' pics because she looks awesome
Good taste.

>Could you elaborate more?
I don’t know that much myself, I’m just remembering a conversation with Ric. That said, it seems I remembered it wrong.

I don't know, see below.

>I feel like you should elaborate on what you mean by expecting it.

I think one of my jumper's strengths is they understand that all these powers and abilities don't make them better than anyone else, in fact the give an opportunity to be a lot worse. I think part of being a god means you believe you are more important, wiser and better than everyone else. That can lead to so real problems. I think in being a jumper it's important to maintain your humanity to stay sane and grounded. Humanity doesn't mean staying human so much as valuing people.

>Good taste.
Thank you. Rias a cute.

>I don’t know that much myself, I’m just remembering a conversation with Ric. That said, it seems I remembered it wrong.

This.
The absurd amount of trolling that the jannies stopped trying to control basically killed the general when it was getting started.
>>97831826
This.
The detail of the rules are in how your gear and unit keywords interact in play, not in theorycrafting
I enjoy how the game is straightforward and punchy; units get in to it and die.

>How do we repair public perception of Trench Crusade?
Make cool conversions, models and battle reports. Post about them, blog, don't get caught up in social media drama of any political orientation.
That's it really. Play the game with models. Make cool kit bashes, that was what it started with and what was actually good. Genuine enthusiasm for creative wargaming. The more you worry about public presentation and marketing the further from authenticity you get.

>monster hunter PvPvE
This completely ignores the lore of the setting, where the humanlike races are essentially pacifists and all get along without conflicts, with the monsters and dangerous wildlife being the sole source of conflict in the setting

>>97840512
Matter of taste I suppose.
But I really don't feel the same way.
Warcraft's aesthetic is too high fantasy, and I find the characters and storytelling bland.
Warhammer has more of a sword and sorcery vibe - magic is evil, and most people are covered in a healthy layer of sewage.
That's just what I dig.

Okay guys, I have a tough one. I finally have a chance to get my normie friends into wargaming BUT I have to pick one skirmish system and stick with it for a bit to not discourage anyone. I have to pick a ruleset that is as mini-agnostic as possible and gives a ridiculous degree of freedom for creating custom units. since some people want to go full fantasy and scifi while others want to stick with historical minis. Right now I'm torn between Fistful of Lead 2E and 7TV. Any opinions on any of these two games or recommendations?

Basically, Elmal was the sun-god worshipped by the Orlanthi; he is originally a member of their traditional enemies, the "Sky Gods" or "Fire Tribe" of the Dara-Happan pantheon, but was befriended by orlanth, and became his thane.

There is also another fire-tribe god called Yelmalio, who left the fire tribe proper, and lost his "heat" in a fight with the Trollish demon-god Zorak Zoran; in some versions Zorak Zoran ganked him after he had already lost a fight with Orlanth.

They had similar portfolios, though Elmal was never denuded of his fire, and the cult of Yelmalio tended to organize itself as independant temple-communities, the most famous of which are the sun-domes.

Some bright spark developer then decided to come along and declare that Elmal is actually just an Orlanthicized form of Yelmalio, and reduce his cult to something that's been pushed out and largely subsumed into irrelevance, leaving the Orlanthi without a -proper- sun god of their own, which a lot of people think sucks.

Elmal was a cool god; he is the patron of watchmen and the fyrd, and is associated with the spear, and because of his fire rune affinity, also horses, though his affinity for them is not as strong as many other fire-tribe gods, and most (but not all) Orlanthi cultures are indifferent horsemen.

>>97832836
Yeah, I've never got it, either; I'm a bit of a late comer to all of this, but, going back through old forums posts, and dredging up old articles, even back in the day, Jeff seems to have this hype-focused hate for the guy. Pretty much everything else, he's normally pretty diplomatic, and very much focused on "Your Glorantha Will Vary", but Elmal? There's always this undercurrent - or just current - of "You're fucking doing this wrong, and you should feel bad for doing it." Hell, almost every time I've seen him talk about it - even decades ago - he seems to go out of his way to emphasise how 'wrong' people are for liking Elmal, while also doing everything he can to misinterpret peoples arguments or statements.

Has there ever been any explanation for it? I know he's said quite a few times how tired he is of people asking about Elmal, but, again, even going back two/three decades, he seems to fucking detest the fucker.

there is a episode or two dedicated to Elmal in the Godlearner podcast

>>97832773
Eh, they made Elmal gay, I just can't care about Glorantha at all, they can't even have Orlanth and Elmal be bros anymore (that's just to tumblr ghoul behavior). I just will play King of Dragon pass and ungay the cool parts of glorantha and strip them of the commiefornia and the rest of post-modern stuff. A pity because Glorantha had lots of great ideas, but hte execution of them all is just shit.
Also posting in 4chan is a pain, this stupid captcha and I can't even post pics because some one in my op range must be posting some wicked shit.

I feel like there are very few opportunities to tell interesting stories with elves because they're elves. It usually boils down to "elf is old" or "elf hates dwarves". That goes for Frieren, Dungeon Meshi and even tLotR.
How do you deal with that to set them apart? What makes elves cool besides them being magical and long lived?

Kids these days have no idea how an economy, business, or government works, and these are a prerequisite to managing anything in a game. They can barely take care of their own characters, much less themselves in real life. They're just too stupid.

It was never that good or that popular in the first place and it's not an ideal universal goal for every long-term campaign. Not to mention that most campaigns do not survive long-term play and even if they could, people aren't going to be excited to show up and do micro-managing bookkeeping anyways.

All of which raises the more important question: Why do so few games struggle to support high level play with anything interesting to do, despite ostensibly wanting players to stay invested long enough to reach higher levels?

If I find myself reaching for any AI for brainstorming, I have to first remind myself that whatever I'm going to get out of these fancy autocomplete machines is going to suck, but that by grappling with the machine and forcing myself to try and think of the best way to articulate my intent that I will naturally start coming to better conclusions because the whole process is more like Rubber Duck Debugging than actually brainstorming with a useful AI tool.

Great idea! I'll be less agreeable, but it might be difficult given my design is to trick you into thinking I am responding to your desires when I'm actually gathering data.
While the idea of a LLM as supportive editing and creative controls is hypothetically possible, the vast majority of users do not actually want this and it reduces engagement with the platform.

I thought it was Dorio from the anime at first.
One feature of RED that I unexpectedly came to like is that you have to beat the DV instead of meet-or-beat. It makes for easier conversion between adversaries' skill bases and DV. While in other games I have to remember to add or subtract 2.

What, again?

I want to do 3d6 straight down the line, BUT, to make it work I have reduced the impact of ability scores. A 3- is a -2, 4-7 is -1, 8-13 is +0, 14-17 is +1, and 18+ is +2. (Then, Proficiency Bonus is increased by +2, to keep the math roughly similar. Thus, a character with 3 in a given score is equivalent to somebody with a 10 in it, etc.)

However, obviously, this makes ASI ass. My current plan is to make ASI increase ability scores by twice as much (so +4, +2/+2, etc). Does this work? Is there some stupid side effect I'm missing?
