>>97360700It mostly won't happen out of the fact that, apart from stuff like the old Deathtrooper novels and some of those uber grimdark Darkhorse comics, Star Wars is a rather bloodless franchise and always has been. And Berserk doesn't particularly work without that excess of gore emphasizing just how far our character has gone.

>>97367910I demand droids on the crew list
>>97360700Like >>97368608 has said, the concept just doesn’t fit. Not only is Star Wars awfully tame in the “gore” department. It also lacks the tone and themes for it. Star Wars is ultimately a very bright and optimistic setting. Even at its darkest moments when the forces of evil seem triumphant, their victory is never ultimate. It gets that from one of Lucas’s wells of inspiration: fairy tales. Star Wars is a fairy tale told in space. From Luke, “the hero of a thousand faces”, Han, “the dashing rogue with a heart of gold”, Leia “the princess in need of rescue” even if she also subverts the role by being the most competent of the three and their adventure to defeat the evil wizard and his ruthless, black-clad general. Luke even meets a weird magical creature along the way that rewards him with wisdom and a boon for being a good person Yoda, if it wasn’t obvious It’s all there. And those stories are innately optimistic, hell, even Rogue One is an optimistic take because, yeah, their sacrifice ultimately mattered. which honestly means trying to force a cynical gore fest of a story like berserk is just going to go about as well as trying to shoehorn cosmic horror into Star Wars, cringey.

>>97368874>New Heresy content from the Black Books every Thursday.Pretty kino, but it's almost a full admission that nothing recently released is anywhere near as good at the Black Books.Oh well, I'm still happy to see this stuff again, so I'll add these shiny PDF's to my HH1 folder.
Which 40K character's death has affected you the most?

>>97368858The funny thing is that I believe you, even if not in the way you think.>>97368702It didn't "affect" me of course, but Tycho dying on armageddon was like a closure of some kind.
>>97368937It's wide definitely but there's not much depth. Factions in Warhammer don't really have much going on compared to whatever they're ripped off from. Eldar are the only real exception.

Previous thread: >>97295718GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: what's the best classic GURPS cover art?
Where are the rules for modern-day explosive reactive armor? Rules for MS-HEAT intended to defeat it are in High-Tech, but there don't seem to be any actual rules for the armor itself.

>>97368921Why must you make us all hurt, anon?
>Q: Why did you revise for sensitivity? Was that not a lot of work for something most people do not care about?>A: Apparently we disagree on how many people care about this in 2026. We do. We wrote it as we would write it if we were starting afresh this year. The one exception is the replacement of "he" with "they" and so on. The accumulated effect of that change would have altered too many page endings.He chads keep on winning
>>97367917I just hope they launch Vehicles 4e before they shut their doors.

Long live the New Flesh!
>>97367805Same as Old Flesh.
>>97366886>robot that could easily kill you?Nothing can easily kill me.
>>97359203>>97367639Well okay, but how come every depiction of them in popular media is like "NYC slumwarren/London Rookerie by with augmetics?" There doesn't seem to be any thought into how life in them would actually be. How do they get medical care, which they must have since hive cities are said to be always growing and not having the huge population die-offs that human cities have always had until penicillin was invented. There never seem to be drivable roads or vehicles either, except in Eisenhorn: Xenos where the game gives you enough space between buildings for a flyer to slip in. Or when it comes to cathedrals and things, every piece of art seems to assume the cathedrals are just surrounded by plazas and open space, with no parking garages and such, and hive gangers like in Necromunda just walk around places spending their cash on hair dye and bullets with the only form of mass transportation being a freight train. Where are the bikes? Where are the futuristic segways? Are we meant to assume that life in the hives are like lives in a Hollywood Dark Age movie, where nobody goes more than 5 miles away from their home in the shittiest little village/hab neighborhood where everything is corroded and nothing works except for what a heretek fixes and they're only allowed 4 hours of sleep before going back to the factory to work? Or if it is supposed to reflect the megacities and 60s public housing, is there a huge undercurrent of consumerist behavior that is just never shown? Where masses and masses of waste are generated by daily living with hive people buying up disposable and tacky shit to make their lives a little bit easier for a few hours? Because otherwise everything seems to suggest life sucks for people living in hives unless you happen to be connected to an interstellar merchant cartel or are born into wealth.

>>97367121> Only Egypt, Syria and Israel managed to survive intact as they were already in a ruined state caused by the war and as such were left alone.I wanted to make a “what did they mean by this” meme, but… nothing good comes to mind.
>>97366706Nice. Since RCL was originally just a 'hate' gang I introduced them as every hate group (white nationalists, black hoteps/israelites, MS-13, the Amish, etc) forced together because nobody else wanted them around. Their goal was to get enough money for the whole group so they can split NC before 'the end' as the 4chan gang a lot of the gang are oldfags and one is a netrunner who still runs the old NET and an AI gave him a copy of Cyberpunk 2077 as a bootleg prophecy and since Red Chrome Legion isn't in that game the netrunner is trying to get the gang out safely. The trick was I introduced a few gang NPCs to the crew as support on a few jobs and they began to find them charming. >>97367732This is what I do too, but instead of 3 months I did shorten it to 1 month and then things can happen. Otherwise I'd never get to see a funny malfunction happen.
>>97367534This. Red is pretty pussified. I'm old and responsible, and am not allowed to say niggerfaggot any longer; and Red is lukewarm milk. Mike is gone, and the attitude era is over. I don't crave a return to early 00s performative edge, but I am sorely disappointed that Red lacks teeth to really have an opinion one way or another. General has gone over it before but Red struggles with showing the dark elements with gravitas, and giving the setting relevant NPCs some grit. When they do "tech with personas to interact with" gags they could at least add a humanity drain on them, rather than relegating them to 'annoying girlfriend gun' and 'the man was already crazy before he fell in love with his phone'. Come on, kids being glued to their smartphones is bad, right? IT'S A SOFTBALL COME ON!
>>97364040My biggest issue with DGD isn't the tone of it, but the fact that it has nothing to say about organized crime, just street gangs. Where's the info on the Mafia, the Yakuza, the Triads, the cartels or even the Bratva? Does the catgirl brigade not care about them?
>>97369126The catgirl brigade is a front by organized crime to draw attention away from themselves and remove smaller competition

>>97368230>While not being as tone ruining as just including the word nigger (since that has no reason to exist in a roleplaying game unless the game is either comedic or set in a modern setting)>No reason to existExcuse me, my game set in the Blaxploitation and Jewsploitation genres about the buddy cop duo of Johnny 'Big John' Cotton and Moshe 'The Yid' Sternowitski has every reason to use that word multiple times per sentence.In fact creative use gives you mechanical bonuses.

>>97369183I mean it is gaming /wip/ too, I took a blood bowl token, expanded it to the correct sized and then fit the necessary pins on the back for mounting so I can glue it on and cover the marks left in the paint by the stock emblem, which had been there for over 30 years.Using a gaming piece makes it on-topic, doesn't it? I'll post it later when I'm home.
Necromancy Edition>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/Comment too long.

>>97363178Not true whatsoever. It's incredibly easy for irl people to flake because they have to go to someone's house, go to a game store, and spend more energy than staying home on a computer.You are misconstruing playing with close friends and irl tabletop. Close friends playing online works just as well.
>>97362783>Fuck playersI used to, anon. God knows I used to...But aside from unrequited love in my gaming groups, I've been blessed to have some amazing players, especially the ones who know what it is like to be a GM. The worst players I had either made up for it in other ways, or did not stay in the group long enough to ruin things for everyone.
>>97362783Can't relate.
>>97362783stop playing with amerigoyim under the age of 35they are always either porn addicts, trauma dumping fags, or moral auditors
>>97362783Playoids are gormless crybabies. They whine about no one GMing a game instead of taking turns running or actually trying to appeal to potential GMs(by offering to host etc) They bitch about not being spotlighted instead of having their characters do interesting things in the game world.

>>97365637sealed is a little more chill but also more luck based since you see less cardslimited in general you can just get fucked over by unlucky opens (and draws of course)draft is really good value if you want the cards in the set you are drafting, and okay value otherwise if you maintain a good winrate
Gotta admit I liked the Avatar set. It helps that I never saw the show and don't know anything about it so it being UB had less of an effect. But the mechanics are fun, art is good and I always liked monks in magic. Only a few busted cards imo. Fun limited. The only thing I know from the show, elemental mastery, seemed implemented well. Surprised there wasn't a black bending mechanic, like gravebending or some shit
>>97367761Black bending would be a Korra thing, they used Gender Bending to make everyone gay and lose their bending abilities.
>>97367371Yeah I think I got lucky in the free sealed event since I was essentially gifted an excellent mardu firebending deck. I know it would suck if you were given a less synergistic pile. I usually can't into signals but I've been trying to draft better, only done a few from Avatar but got my first 7 wins just now :D I did have the draftsmith ratings for a bit of guidance but I didn't look at the "suggested pick" thing
