>>97403818>more or less has their internal chaos situation figured outNo one has chaos figured out. You are either threatened by it like the Imperuim, borderline destroyed by it like the eldar or you are just magically not affected by it like every other faction cuz the writers can't be bothered making chaos orks and nids
>>97403920Have you thought that maybe not everyone is a blithering moron willing to listen to literal demons from hell or a guy called Skullraper the Fucklord who dresses up in the still screaming peeled off faces of his brothers? Chaos is a problem to the Eldar because they were retarded back then, and are still paying for their price. It is a problem to the DEldar and the Imperium because they STILL ARE retards. Everybody else doesn't care because they have an average IQ that goes above a single digit.
>>97403964It's ok to admit it's poorly writtenYou don't have to do mental gymnastics to excuse it
>>97404012The Imperium having made its own demise is a central aspect of the setting. Psykers turn to Chaos because they are treated like dirt by the Imperium to the point where they find more kinship with demons then with their own people. People abandoned and left to rot turn to Nurgle, nobles and the wealthy turn to Slaneesh in the frenzy of hedonism the Imperium lets them get away with, their living weapons turn to Khorne because war is all they know, what matters if they fall deeper into it. The Imperium gave Chaos its armies, its weapons, and the main Chaos army is CHAOS SPACE MARINES. The Imperium and the Eldar being Chaos' main prey is appropriate- they literally created it.

>local discord>"we need a gm! we playing d&d!">join groupchat>decide to run a one shot>tell them the premise>3 days later nobody has sent anything>tell them that if they dont all have their characters ready, i will not run the gamegee i wonder why theres a gm shortage
>>97402565There's also no reason for a DM to run a long-running game for a bunch of randos before knowing how they play unless that DM is being paid which I doubt it's the case here.
>>97401135I've seen both extremes a lot. Players who throw down a thick binder of over-prep, and players who walk in with no character sheet and just tell you to hand them whatever. Neither one is necessarily more familiar with the actual rules and mechanics, but the first one is likely to have an emotional meltdown when their character dies ignominiously at level 1. The second player is probably going to spend the whole night on their phone and basically need the GM to play for them.
>>97396362Oneshots should have pregens.
>>97399563This.When normies say they want D&D, it means they want to pretend they're a Critical Role cast member, and when they realize that your ideas conflict with their Critical Role fantasy, they decide that they don't care anymore.They want to imagine a fantasy version of the hobby, you want to expose them to reality. It's incompatible, and it's why you should ignore people asking you to run D&D. If they ask you to run "something" then they actually care about entering the hobby.
>>97403643Only if they're being used to introduce someone to the system, otherwise stop being fucking lazy especially if you're looking for a DM and not running it yourself.

>>97386937God, I'd kill for a Mage game written by Marquis
>>97389021>>97390634The thing is, the Storytelling system and its derivatives works well when rolls are only called for when the outcome of a roll is of consequence. That is to say, if someone has enough or too few dots in something, a roll shouldn't be called unless dramatically appropriate.Hunger and its related systems in the other X5 systems work great when it's run as such. However, people like rolling dice. This leads to frenzying becoming more common than probably intended.
>>97403992All you need to do is only care about the hunger dice when it's feasible a frenzy could happen, instead of doing it literally every time the dice say so. Also, the hunger dice just make it so that whatever you do is obviously vampire.If the hunger dice came up while a player was picking a lock, I would probably ignore them. If I didn't ignore them, it might be as simple as them using their vampire strength to break the doorjam, which isn't ideal but it won't cause a masquerade breach.This idea that you need the player to frenzy and start ripping people in half in the streets because of the hunger dice is stupid, and if that's how you're treating the dice, then yeah, when you play the game in a stupid way, stupid things happen.How big of an impact the hunger dice have is within the control of your storyteller, so if the storyteller is botching it, it's their own fault.

dead before bump limit edition▶What is Kingdom Death?Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0AcThe Game is broken up into 3 phases:1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase.

Man, how the hell are you supposed to be ready for node 2 nemeses by ly9, does poots actually expect me to do nothing but hunt white lion for 9 years and have a full leather set + shield in time?
>>97394480>nemesis fights desuLook you absolute knuckle dragging simian; if you put two subpar items into a core set and then put an instant-kill that's associated with those two items, you are telling your average player to not bring those. I don't think calling me a pussy and then bringing up nemesis fights is a good argument. Nemesis hunts account for 7 on average in a campaign, and even then, you probably have better things to do with your gear 99% of the time. I am saying that the game is pushing even mid-experienced players away from bringing these items on a core game experience, but this doesn't even account for all the expansions that focus on this gear (smoggos).Generate an actual argument next time instead of just wiping your ass with your bare hand and then reading the shit streaks to generate your response.
>>97396613I've basically stopped using the build guides and build based on vibes (aka tits go on body, body goes on legs, then figure out the rest)that or just pop open the store page or a painted picture for whatever I'm building and look at the back/side views when needed.
>>97400075>Look you absolute knuckle dragging simianI don't have to take this shit from a retard who forgot about nemesis fights lmao. The music stuff is fantastic for them, and you completely skipped over them despite how much more dangerous they are compared to normal hunts. The hunt phase is also NOT GOOD to be in dumbass. Every random hunt event rolled is a fucking danger. It's not another thing you use for your survivors to get stronger.I'm not even going to bother to read your posts too, since I stopped reading past your initial dumbass insult. You may as well spare yourself the effort, and I'm sure it is an effort lmao, and stop responding altogether, since I'm not going to read them.
To keep thread alive, I'm on ly6 and I've got all 4 survival actions unlocked, a suit of Rawhide and an activated luck charm on my 2 Evasion 1 luck fist and tooth survivor with monster claw style, and a zanbato, butcher's cleaver, and cat gut bow on the other mostly mooks barring +1 accuracy on the bowman. Think it's worth trying for a level 2 white lion?

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/.

>>97402072I did not. We actually screwed it up a bit looking at the rules for the mission (No Man's Land) and we thought that there was no middle point to capture, only the two that we each have on our base. Mission forbids infiltration, so my assassins couldn't advance that much forward.Despite those disadvantages I was still doing pretty well at first until the Trench Cleric on his side got an insane activation with a grenade toss, charge, fight, then advance unto my point. I managed to clear him off in the end, but it put me at a point deficit that I wasn't quite able to make up at the end of the game.Final scoring was 14-18.>>97402095We got all of that modular terrain thanks to a single father in the group who busted his ass making it and donated it to the club for any to use.

>>97403388That does sound interesting, but in this case I don't think it would work well on the tabletop?

>>97403884Oh yeah the actual mechanic would be pretty damn restrictive on the tabletop, I'm just a little surprised they dropped the whole gender dynamic thing in its entirety, honestly seemed like a pretty interesting way to introduce female units into an army in a fluffy way, but I guess gw had other plans.
>>97403838I disagree, HH is a bad product but they definitely care about it, it has had 40k levels of support since 3.0 launched, which itself is probably their most manicured edition in a long while with a ton of investment into it. For a start it is pretty much their first battle game that has introduced more characteristics since I don't know when. TOW was clearly the stepchild from launch, it's the underdog done good story but I don't think they were ever confident about it and are still confused about how to market and support it.

>>97390621Just how they were depicted back in the late 70s and early 80s, it stuck with them for a long time. Maybe there's something to it; the shape of the plating and helmets, along with the short horns, doesn't look like something a human soldier would wear, so it sets orcs apart as inhuman (which I personally prefer; nowadays orcs are just green elves with tusks)pic related is an orc design I can get behind; that and the 3.5 one that made them look kind of like baboon men
