>>97351443>WW2 Fanfic for boomers
>>97351973I honestly doubt it is anything interesting to learn about, not even thinking about it in a wargaming context! Pre-gunpowder warfare is just lines walking into each other. Early gunpowder warfare is just lines walking close to each other, before occasionally walking into each other. The tactics and interesting decision making is at the very highest level. But we are miniature wargamers here, and any good representation of the interesting scales of pre-industrial war tend to abstract a ton. You have four 28mm figures standing on a base representing a Regiment, or something totally ridiculous like that. We may as well be playing hex and chit, except WW2 also makes for more interesting scenarios than hex and chit.The aesthetics are absolutely lovely and they make for good grand strategy games, but don't try to convince me into some retarded conflict that can only be represented by the silliest combination of scale and abstraction. The same also goes for any conflict after WW2.>Oh boy I love playing poorly armed and trained guerillas who occasionally pop out of hidey holes before being obliterated by a space age civilization.Riveting.
>>97352982I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you, but WW2 is just rock paper scissors where rock and scissors are the same unit type.
>>97349756I really like that. Good job, anon.

>>97352663yeah doesn't seem great, there are a few better chaperomons than this one.
>>97352663>>97352882Playing from hand or trash is objectively better than hand only, and if the thing's going to die anyway it's perfect fodder for a level 6's Overclock or even this card's own Scapegoat. It's fine.
>>97352933kaguyamon doesn't have overclock and nyanbootmon can only warp on chaperomon not karakuru.so unless you are running cendril on top, which already makes its own tokens, nah, its not very useful.yes playing from trash is nice, yes it makes for great overclock fodder, but deleting itself and no warp makes it a lot worse.this is solely so you can self proc kaguya's effect despite what your opponent has on their board. it isn't worthless, but there are 2 chaperos that are at least as good as it and for the most part better.
>>97352958There's going to be another Kaguyamon in this set most likely. You also get additional value from the On Play or On Deletion effects of the Digimon you play, namely searcher Shoemon, On Deletion make a token Shoemon, or Hanimon letting you get back something from trash to hand. And I also don't think it's THAT dangerous to split between Chaperomon and Karakurumon if you're running Nyaabootmon, admittedly I don't play the deck but it seems like Nyaaboot is still good if you evo it from a level 6.
>>97352987>Chaperomon and Karakurumon if you're running Nyaabootmonyeah but you are ABSOLUTELY running 4 of the free evo karakurumonso you have at most 4 slots leftESPECIALLY if the new kaguya is good you are running 4 of the free evo oneso you have 4 slots leftis this karakurumon better than chaperos?you already have a chapero that plays down if you desperately need the overclock and it allows for the warpif you are only running 2 chapero then you are not going to expect to warp and aren't going to be running many nyabootmon, but he is your main damage push. generally you get kaguya out, kaguya plays the 4, evo it to a 5 warp to nyaboot and that is enough board to end the game.the "problem" with nyaboot is you don't want to evo it over kaguya, because then you lose the the clap back when protecting and you lose your blocker/allianceso unless you are intending to to make two kaguya and then go into nyaboot (which is more expensive and requires more cards) it just isn't going to happen.

>>97353078>hello retard here>proceeds to not say anything retardedwtf anyway it looks good, the only suggestion I have is to give her a personality flaw, something the other players can sorta tease you about, gives them something to work with in dialogue.
>>97353078Kinda hard to tell when it's a non-standard race.The standard yuan-ti player option is mostly defense bonuses and bow rogues are fine.Just sounds a bit anime for me, but mechanically could be fine
>>97353078you make a character together with the dm, it's not homework you hand in
>>97353066>a hint towards a greater force at playI like this idea, maybe therell be a connection to the army. Maybe thats how they took the town they were fleeing so suddenly.>short dungeon crawlIm going to build up to this, Im developing ideas of concepts for a plan about an abandoned subterranean Elven stronghold for later in the story>>97353083The random chaos seems fun. The blacksmith is just my Not-DM character whos meant to nudge the players in the right direction at the beginning of the story. I plan for him to leave for a Dwarf Fortress™ shortly after their long-rest, and hopefully that will nudge the players into going with him, however it still doesnt add much to the plot, other than "look, cool thing here" which is what Im struggling with.If you guys have any reasons for the players to stay in a group canonically Id greatly appreciate it. I was going to try and weave their backstories, probably with a MacGuffin, or have the blacksmith ask them for defense in his travels. I know this is sort of Reddity in that I want all this explained in-game, but I think it would be more fun for my players.Besides that>World-map making advice>Lore-building advice>Ideas or advice for a larger plot for them to follow, or ways to seed oneWould also help
>>97353124He gave us some kinda link to a website for dndbeyond and that's just a homework check.....aieeeeee. also they wanted to have our first session this week, and he's still tweaking some parts of his campaign atm.>>97353112>>97353105I know my friends and them are more so interested in the actual gameplay part, (but they're also artists hence why I'm drawing this stuff) and I'd probably be interested in it too, but this is mostly all I have to go off of right now being the character creation. Which is something I like but I wish I could get more into the gameplay aspects, but I don't know much about DND.Personality wise though what I had in my mind was that she's a complete fucking sperg, not dumb but lacks so much social awareness due to being a hick. Filled with race appropriate attitude regarding humans and the like, but still loves her parents. Almost everything will go above her head, but she's still smart. Most people can tell something is wrong and just assume she's schizo when she's in disguise since she doesn't know how regular people act.Think in a way like Mizael from Zexal but oblivious to those around her. You could flirt with her and she'd think it was a threat

>>97352873Those remind me of the models I saw as a kid at a local convention. My grandpa bought them for me and that is when my fascination with Warhammer began. Nicely done, anon
>>97352890I'm a huge plastic banner hater! Regardless, your freehand looks good and will look amazing at tabletop height. I feel like freehand patterns and heraldry only had to be generally the right colors in the right areas for it to look good at tabletop height. Sorta like impressionism, from a distance you know exactly what it's supposed to be even if it doesn't look great when zoomed in with a camera
>>97348594Just setting bite-sized goals and going from there.My LGS hosted a TOW escalation league recently and I was able to sit down and get nearly 2000 points of Lizardmen painted during its run. The only model I didn't paint out of the 2000 point army was my 20 year old Stegadon. The rest were brand new (or newly cut off the sprue) models, including the new Saurus. Though they don't rank up very good.
So, I’ve decided for my Triumph and Treachery event I’m going to setup a snack table for my opponents to enjoy. I did this at the Bay Area Open a few years ago and it was a big hit.Since I’m bringing tomb kings, I want to bring foods that are on theme, aka Egyptian. I’m thinking figs and dates, with honey, sesame crackers, a simple spreadable cheese, bread, and nuts. Does anyone have any ideas on what tomb kings may have eaten that can go on my snack table? In b4 sand.
>>97352996Inshallah, i hope it'll all pull itself together once it starts looking like a coherent unit.

>>97326127>>97326600This is what a warhammer looks like IRL, it's not a cartoonish cylinder/brick on a stick which wouldn't even be able to be swung by a human, it's literally a hammer made for war.
>>97350625>>97326600idk guys, if your warhammer can't be confused with a tankard, can you really feel like a man holding one?Besides, the one holding it here is an azer. always on fire and 1 point of fire damage with touch or metal weapons - he can't be holding leather and wood handles.
>>973030823.PF or OSR/adjacent.5e occupies an awkward middleground for me. If I want something streamlined with a bit of character customization for modern sensibilities, I would go lighter than 5e and probably pick Worlds Without Number.If I want more mechanical depth in exchange for prep taking 20-30% longer, I would play 3.PF. It is crunchier, it is tedious getting key numbers pre-computed, but swapping out some feats can provide a lot of tactical variety to enemies. The skills can be a bit tedious and specific, but there are UA variations you can use to simplify.

Thread dedicated to Sci-Fi based discussion. 40k need not apply. [\spoiler]How goes your sci-fi setting, anon? I am currently running a Traveller game in a homebrew setting, and am getting lost in the sauce of stellar physics.
How does Cepheus Universal compare as a sci-fi setting kit against Stars Without Number?
>>97350282I've never been able to find a system with space combat I like, so I'm thinking about a sci-fi setting where "space is boring" i.e. all the adventures happen on planets/at human scale. Aside from "space war is all computers, you either have the capability to punch through enemy pickets or instantly die when you try" is there anything else I could do to help establish this sort of convention?
On the subject of Traveller, how do (you) feel about ansibles? Do you prefer your settings having inconvenient (ie. "slow") communication? Or instant transfer of information regardless of distance?
I've had an idea for a more space oriented cyberpunk game brewing for a while, though I'm reminded now that 2300 exists and while I'm not super familiar with traveller that also seems like an option. So what is trav like?
>>97352667I definitely prefer the thought of a information network time gated by jump mechanics. It can create some very interesting scenarios, and it can give players an actual sort of soft currency of exchanging news when they hit out of the way spots that aren't on the major trade paths

>>97350405Is it true that you're not allowed to use dice as physical counters? some guy at my locals kept telling me that's illegal at regionals and YCS
>>97352437you must represent counters as multiple individual objects, you cannot use dice to represent multiple counters, and you can only use notes for reminders
I love master duel's solo mode, this game has so many cool archetypes I never knew existed
>>97352437Yes. It is illegal to use dice as counters in sanctioned events. The official reason is that they cannot be confused with other game elements, and while Dice mechanics are not at all common, they are still a thing that exists. The unofficial reason is because of how easy it is to either cheat, or accidentally roll something like a D20 to a different value.>https://www.yugioh-card.com/en/downloads/penalty_guide/YGOTCG_Tournament_Policy_v_2_5.pdf>Counters must be items that cannot be confused with other game elements. >Items that are overly large, could damage cards or other tournament property, or have graphics or text inappropriate for an all-ages environment cannot be used.>Physical counters are required – the “counter” function in NEURON cannot be used without also using physical counters.>Counters must be added to cards in the appropriate quantity (example: if card effect(s) would place 4 counters on a card, Duelists should add four counters, rather than using a die placed to show “4.” Tradeoff is that you can use virtually anything as counters, as long as each individual counter is represented by an individual object.

Goblins have existed in folklore for centuries in various forms, but where and when was it decided that Goblins are green? in 1st edition d&d, thwey're described as having various skin shades, green not being specified or standing out among the.a lot of people assume warhammer, but spiderman had a green goblin before warhammer, so what the fuck
>>97352057Good point. The Hobgoblin is not called the Yellow Hobgoblin, he's just Hobgoblin.
>>97351927Easy.Hopkinsville 1955.same as the origin for the term "little green men."Which is kind of hilarious, because they weren't even green, a newspaper journalist misheard grey.
