>Broken Compass
The game is on 1-6 scale. You make character by mashing two traits together, giving you additional stat and skills. If you combine two non-combat traits, you have exactly 2 dice for your combat rolls, in a game that's not only a dice pool, BUT you need to have 2 dice to succeed at all (while majority of combat is going to require 3 dice to roll success at all). You theoretically can rise your combat skills, but you only have 2 points FOR ALL during char-gen, so a combat-focused character is going to start with 4-5 dice pool in combat stuff, while you at BEST gonna have 4 and that assuming you don't want to get better in your own class.
>Outgunned
It's basically Broken Compass 2e, where you gain much greater flexibility with char-gen, but still, there are two classes (Nobody and Brain) that are intentionally bad at combat, because you either play as a random civilian tangled in high-octane action or a skill money that should be sitting in lab/provide support via intercom. Unlike Broken Compass, this game has much better use of non-combat stuff in direct fights, so you can fumble/think your way out of pickle by being creative,rather than good at fighting

>HEX explaination
This is a pulp adventure game. This means you start with an archetype and if it happens to be, say, a professor or a nurse or a missionary or just a sexy lady in peril, you won't have space to waste points into combat stuff, not to mention they won't fit your initial concept
Beinng a dice pool system, where in combat, you roll Stat + Skill + Equipment, meaning you can have 1 in Dex, 0 Firearms (which applies penalty of -2) and then bring a shotgun or grab hunting rifle of the other character (so 4 dice), so your final dice pool is 3 (1-2+4), and that means you can STILL hit something and in pretty reliable way
That -2 penalty is also intentional. The assumed style of game is that during char-gen, you are making a character that (potentially) never been in the field (especially when they are non-combatant), but after surviving the first adventure, you will gain by design AT LEAST 2 points and your character faces a choice - get SOME combat training before the next expedition, or hope that this time you won't get in combat. So you use those 2 points to rise your combat skill from 0 to 1, and now your dice pool goes from 1-2+weapon to 1+1+weapon, meaning even carrying a handgun, you have now a dice pool of 4 for combat roll, meaning you AUTOMATICALLY hit basic targets
On top of it all, the game was designed with the fact someone might never want to make a combat character in the sense of a damage dealer, but you can still use OTHER, non-combat stuff during your rounds. You literally can make a diplomacy check trying to convince the other side to stop shooting, distract or outright seduce them, or come up with any of the bullshit solutions. Say, you declare that the group of hostiles is standing between easy-to-drop on them tree branch and make a Science (Biology) roll to make that happen.
There is also a series of perks that replaces base Stat with the one of your choice, so your character uses Int for Firearms or Dex for Brawl

It's why I put Aspect in Inverted Commas, cause they aren't a True Aspect, they're just DBs of one of the regular Aspects who've swapped out their regular DB Charms for the ones the 3e Infernal Charmtrees that match their Aspect Abilities.

WW's poor writing makes it sound more like punishments and humiliations.

Despite the wank, at times, the Exalted host feels less respected than the avarage level 1 D&D adventurers.

People come with the expectations of having world shaking powers, not "eating shit" from everyone and everything.

>>97341644
People figure that their PCs wouldn't serve a mortal. Some of these people can't really understand other people, real or fictitious, having different perspectives, and get confused and consequently upset when encountering such different perspectives.

>>97341644
>Why do people get so violently upset at the idea of Exalts serving mortals? Even in real life you can very easily observe that actual rulers are never the strongest or even the smartest. What exactly makes you believe that those dynamics would suddenly change just because the subjects can get personally more powerful?
Because Exalted are also notably more headstrong at minimum (they have a very high base Willpower, there should be no Exalt who can be described as timid or unsure of themselves), and because the Exalted all have access to unnatural social skills and abilities, and have ways to use them which aren't obvious. It's not just strength and smarts that the Exalted have access to - if the supernaturally savvy, manipulative, good-looking, and charismatic guy who nobody even knows is Exalted and can't be discriminated against even if they did can't get into power, how can the mortals?

You can probably do this much faster using gimp with a mosaic filter, that way you can edit your maps directly

I don't use maps that have grids on them because of this.

Find the highest common factor of the image width and height. This will be some multiple (usually 2x or 3x) of the grid size. If this doesn't work it usually means the image has been cropped or scaled weird

Rangers have an Animal Companion as a Druid of half their level, meaning the cat has at most +6 bonus HD. So it could survive if Nale has only 15 HD.
Supposedly the Order were about lv7-9 when the comic started, and they're at most lv15 now.

...however, housecats don't qualify as Animal Companions. Belkar could instead bond with Mr. Scruffy as an Urban Companion (Cityscape web enhancment); in that case his abilities would be similar to a familiar, including having the same number of effective HD as Belkar.

>>97341270
you can just use regular bolters, but that's boring and gay. Especially sad considering GW is charging $194 before tax for 10 undersized bodies missing any weapons. Then you have to go steal 10 bolters from a terminator kit on top of that AND they don't even get to look cool at all?

And it's not simply a SoH issue. All the melee kits suck cock. The $39 blood angel kit has 1 single perdition axe for the entire kit. And guess what? It's held in two tiny hands, so you can't even equip 1 terminator character with your perdition axe upgrade if you buy it, as they don't use the paired arms, the arms and hands are the wrong size and it's not compatible with any terminator bodies. Yet it's legal on every BA character (power armor, terminators, bikers, flying guys)

When GW eventually pulls their heads out of their fucking assholes they need to sell plastic upgrade kits with 4-5x as many of every rare weapon and at least 3 of the 4-5 being one-handed versions.

So the hundreds of noncombat careers are there just to trick you?

>>97341506
Have you considered that you made a choice to specialize in a non-combat role in a game where you can choose either/or?

You can still fight, in the same way a fighter can still haggle with a merchant; but you chose not to specialize in that task.

A roleplaying game is about choices.
You chose not to be a fighter in a violent world.
That means you have to be smart, and think quickly; get out of danger, flee, summon help, come prepared with a useful item like a firepot, or a low-skill weapon like a crossbow, that you can use coward-tactics with.
Duh.

>-where they said they would release ‘the entire range’ as STLs;
This is using your definition of "entire range" as what's outlined in the Kickstarter, this can be found on their website and in their Q&A. Some statements can be found in panels.
>-where they said *during* the kickstarter that they would release a plastic range;
That's central to my argument actually, if there's going to be more TC and there are no plans for plastic. Then how can there be more TC without plastic? It would have to be in the form of STLs.
>-where, *during* the kickstarter, they said there would be more TC stuff in the future;
https://youtu.be/iC66fRPlmUY?t=1100
>-where they said, *during* the kickstarter, that any and/or all future releases would be STLs.
They didn't but as I said if you use inference that would have been the assumption in early 2025. In late 2024 Tuomas said it was a possibility in the future but that it is expensive and that was repeated until april 2025 or so.

As for the reason why plastics and no stl: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g7rIctDLT0
Arguing post hoc reasoning here just makes you a flaming faggot, the reason why people are upset is that there are now official Trench Crusade minis in stores that you cannot print at home. That's a fundamental difference in the ecosystem that previously said bring your proxies or print out official ones, whether Only Games print them or your friends they're still just as official. And now going forward we don't know what gets released as an STL, there could be entire factions in plastic for all we know.

>>97340923
>This is using your definition of "entire range"
I used that phrase as I was quoting you, dipshit. Dodging the question.

>That's central to my argument actually blah blah blah

For years 3D proonters have been screeching that their little wunderwaffe is going to kill the plastic mini industry.

When in reality it's the complete opposite. Proonting is a means to an end to get to the real money making stage which is plastic minis.

Real proonters who like it as an additional step on their hobby journey will continue to flourish, people who want plastic minis will continue to flourish. Only those who are invested in collapsing an industry for their own petty reasons will continue to be proven wrong every step of the way.

There's technically both, but the more furry ones are considered vermin races and emerge naturally out of animals with no exposure to the divine or other humanoids. The humanoid ones have varying origins, many 'natural' others less so, but I usually don't think too much about the animal bits as they aren't really meant to directly embody an intelligent form of the animals they emerge from so much as they take a cue from them here or there. The best way I can word it is that the animal bits underline how they are, rather than define it.

The fox and the hound, from Disney's hit classic The Fox and the Hound, are "anthropomorphic." The fucking rocks in that scene from Everything Everywhere All at Once are "anthropomorphic."

MTGs prices are as valid as art is. It's a giant ponzi scheme where investards are desperately trying to offload their bags onto other investards and the very few consoomers who somehow have enough disposable income to buy overpriced cardboard but not enough intelligence to realize buying overpriced cardboard is retarded.

Take pic related for example, which is currently "valued" at $6500usd. Do you think there is one single solitary person on the planet that has bought that card who isn't an investard hoping to flip it on some other sucker? It - like all the other overpriced mtg cards - has no actual value because there are no actual costumers for it beyond wannabe investors. MTG is a zombie market.
