>>97345023Literally anything is fine, gors are that much of a solid base.
>>97344810samefagging
>>97345023Unless you are using Gors specifically for defense, it's always dual weapon. And unlike most infantry, you don't want them to have banners most of the time. They win or lose on winning or losing. They are simply too unarmored to pretend they can win on static battle res. And ironically, ungors are better for defense because of spears. Gors gain so much on the charge, and once again there you want dual weapons.Gors with dual weapons in skirmish are incredibly dangerous. They can't take flanks, but 360 charge is unbelievable versatility.
>>97345094How much was it? The Victrix one is much better than the WGA one. Overall I'm very glad to see it either way, no table ever has enough scatter terrain
>>97345160$50 canadian fun bucks. I'll look into the Victrix one.
Do you include seasonal changes in your campaigns when time goes by?If so, what do you implement int the world to showcase the changing seasons?I personally include sea raiders who begin assaults on the kingdom's shores in spring and through summer, who then return to their homeland in fall to winter it out. So essentially a raiding season for my world's vikings, like in real history.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWc0DvoY6qw

>>97276426What peasants?
>>97341535>The planet needs to have a slower revolution around its star for seasons to last for years. Axial tilt determines the severity of the extremes the planet experiences in its seasons.What? The revolution/orbit of Earth doesn't determine seasons, the axis does.
i always begin my games on the first day of spring because it's the easiest to not give a shit about ("it's winter, travel is slower, you'll need more gear" or whatever).luckily i've never had a campaign last long enough in-world to worry about anything after summer.
>5E characters 100% heal after a night's restman their lives must be so exciting. one day you start adventuring, and in a month you've explored all the dungeons and killed hundreds of monsters. all those 'downtime activities' are like, a choice, you're not licking your wounds to regain 1 hit point per day.
Welcome to Mecha Monday! Here we dedicate ourselves to mecha RPGs, wargames, and boardgames alike.

>>97335223Not that I know of- they only seem to be working with 3D prints. But I did hear their newer printed material is far sturdier.
>>97226240I'm kind of out of the loop because I'm not usually a /tg/ guy, would anyone be so kind as to give me a QRD on what's going on with Gundam Assemble? I saw the announcement ages ago and was kind of interested because I'd like to get into wargaming type stuff but up until now haven't seen any wargames that I like (not interested in GW stuff or historicals). I checked up on it today and it seems maybe I was totally off the mark and it was actually some kind of TCG related thing and not actually a wargame...
>>97340928The models were released in a promo pack with the card game as a teaser. It's still an exclusive game to be played with minis, it just isn't out yet. They just announced it way before release for some reason.
>>97335394>>97335223The CEF plastic Frame sculpts are so bad I'm actually considering learning 3D modelling just so I can make better ones for myself.
>>97345047unfortunately DP9 suffers from a terminal lack of ambition, but maybe that's how they've survived for so long on the periphery of scifi miniature wargaming when GW raped everyone else

>>97344587Driven by idealism are fine and admirable if they know the world is a bad place and want to improve it. People who are pressured due social obligation too. People who become adventurers for fun are dangerous thrill-seekers or sociopaths.
>>97344587There only needs to be a desire strong enough to drive someone to leave.A tragic event or disruption to happy life is easy to drive someone but there are non tragic reasons someone would leave.>A mystery that needs to be solved>A ritual or rite of passage that needs doing>A call by a higher being to do a task>Sometimes you can simply seek fame and glory>Not sure if we want to count characters thrown into adventure by being in the wrong place at the wrong time
>>97344587Back in the day the motivation was>im broke and wont hold down a job, dungeons pay wellHigh risk high rewardAnd that was it
>>97344934If I recall, Dungeons and Dragons has its origins in a dungeon dive Gygax and his buddies ran because one of their warbands in an ongoing Chainmail game was deep in the red, and it was a chance to get some salvage money in a hurry.
>>97344934>im broke and wont hold down a job, dungeons pay wellThat works but that is a boring reason and doesn't give a DM much to work with.I like D&D because I like having a say on the narrative so I prefer something that the DM can use in the campaign.

Another question for /tg/Blasphemy says its effects are "cumulative and concurrent," does that mean that the -2d6 Strength stacks with itself if a creature keeps spamming it? (looking at you, Balors and Hezrous ...)
>>97341162>Blasphemy says its effects are "cumulative and concurrent,"The EFFECTS are cumulative, not the spell.When you are affected by Weaken, you are also Dazed.
>>97338861>I think it would be cool to have an option for people that don't want to trawl through message boards for builds or have exhaustive knowledge of 20 different books to not feel like a gimp next to those people that do that stuff.If the problem is char-op, then either prebuilt characters with their whole 1 to 20 choices pre-made, or even better in my opinion a simple very limited pool of curated options so that the person can make some choices.You could even group it by themes or roles or whatever.
>>97338861I really don't understand this mindset. There are pregen characters all over the source material.Just pick a high level NPC and there is your decent build if you don't want to do it yourself.why restrict the entire group and game instead. These games are meant to last years. An intimidated newbie today, in 3 years of playing might want to start branching out.
>>97341172Oh shit, you're right. No idea how I have played this game for years upon years and that never registered with me. Thanks anon
There are a lot of examples of knights being implemented into a sci-fi future setting (Warhammer 40k, Battletech, Dune), but are there any examples of medieval societies with modern-esque professional soldiers?
The Doctor Who episode 'The Time Warrior'.
>>97343804fantasy is a catch-all for nonfiction which takes place in imagined worlds. science fiction falls under that umbrella

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. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97328199You want 1 death during the prologue to unlock death principle. Otherwise it's cringe af when you lose 3 and get nothing.
>>97337918Do omens do anything yet? Their supposed to be a part of the inverted mountain campaign but that's not out yet for like another 4-5 years. I think pariah and maybe BK have them too
Is this model as 100% going to snap as it looks? Do you pin that tiny support?
>>97341627why would it snap? this is a painter's scale mini in plastic, not resin, and it's for sitting on your shelf looking (hopefully) good
Honestly I feel like drawing perfect resources off the bat in the early years is such a curse, because I want to save them which cripples my early game resource efficiency. I almost wish they were only added to the deck for level 2+ monsters only
This game had such a kino setting. What is a good system to play a kung-fu RPG that involves a lot of punching?
>>97344964The retarded faggot says while replying with a dumb whiny post. Singular they existed for 100s of years. If you knew that you would not be acting like a retard in this thread.
>>97344000Someone has been getting so booty blasted by /tg/'s decreasing tolerance for lazy shitpost threads that he's begun trying to fake being one of the pissed off fa/tg/uys to try and make it look like the people complaining about the abundance of shitty threads are the real problem.
>>97345039you might want to look at the timings. the No Country for Old Men thread, the Predator vs Avatar thread, and the...Fallout New Vegas (???) thread (especially), it's been going on for days.you're naive if you think this is just one person. the Fallout guy is clearly taking the piss, though, which is just funny.if OP was a crafty troll who was so DEVIOUS he made an on-topic thread instead of a disguised /v/ thread on /tg/, then he'd just be making a /tg/ thread. great!
I based this colour scheme for cathay off that game.
>>97345007Yeah, you definitely aren't the guy looking like a retarded faggot here.
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97344041
>>97344201She's very cute.
>>97337300Is this supposed to be an example? This looks like a human with fake ears and some makeup.
>>97332073I was hoping for more, guys...
>>97333386This is the worst of both worlds. This is basically 2016 cats and its only saving grace is that this is not a realistic artstyle.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere. And as we enter this happiest and newest of years, remember: 2e was never an old-school game, bait is for reporting, and fish is for smoking! Happy new year, grogs!Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

>>97344687can b2 really be completed in 6 sessions at a steady pace?t1 is pretty mediocre tbch
>>97345111>can b2 really be completed in 6 sessions at a steady pace?Depending on the group (both players and DM) and the length of each session.
Is there any way I can incorporate my fetish in my fantasy world without it becoming a magical realm?
>>97344493My point stands. Fags fucked up the concept back then (as many a contemporary source will also say), and they've been fucking it up ever since. You still have to be a faggot to look at a male teacher and a male student and choose to conjure mental images of homosex rather than generational skill transfer.You see a horse and think of bestiality.I see a horse and think of cavalry charges and war chariots.We are not the same.
>"this was never about elves">literally an elf in the OP 40k babbies really aren't smart.
>>97345036"Never about elves", lol.
>>97344648No, your point doesn't stand, as it's not historically supported.This isn't you being un-faggy. This is you being revisionist in accordance with your personal beliefs. Which is a higher form of faggotry all of itself.
>>97344648You angered the closeted faggot, he immediately got pissed.
It's pic related. Peter Jackson tried to copy Blix's swag for a good reason
>>97297171And after describing how the race of Men were most alike Melkor in appearance, thought, and action too. Seems like Tolkien did not really like his earlier observations.
>>97303851None of them in the movies were intelligent anyway. So most normies will never really know what was missing. Weird decision since intelligent talking wolves have been done in cinema for decades.
>>97290857>top third from the rightdidn't expect a down syndrome goblin
looks more like the witches from The Witches than what i'd consider a goblin.how old fairy tales illustrated them is fine, but i guess by the time of the dark n grounded 2000s Hollywood films (which, ironically, look camp and silly nowadays) that was camp and silly.
>>97342961That's the beauty of goblins, they're inclusive of all freaks and weirdos.

>>97344804no, i mean from a generation side. I still have one of the very first gens I ever made on bing 2 years ago which has that same general shape without the eye covering. And you still see people post stuff like it every few months or so.

It is the year 199X. Your friends have just sent you a text message to your Nokia 3210, saying they can't make tonight's D&D game.Which of these games do you play, to single-playerly experience that classic 'dungeon crawler' feel?
I noodle around making an installation map on Starcraft's editor until I get bored, then listen to some CDs and doodle.
>>97344461In the late 90s (or early 2000s, I don't quite remember) I was playing Link's Awakening DX and the Oracle games.
>>97344887these are like, the 'platonic' Zelda games in my mind.the Oracle ones clearly have the third-party influence from Capcom/Flagship, but they're all the better for it. like some parallel universe where those shitty CD-i games worked out.
Rebellions in 40k usually happen on a single world, or within a very limited region, and are often isolated before they can spread.In Star Wars, the rebels are far weaker than the Empire, but because hyperdrives are easy to obtain and relatively safe, they can carry out guerrilla tactics. By contrast, the Imperium in 40k doesn’t have a rebel problem as severe as the Galactic Empire did, because warp travel is terrible and can't really do it without a Navigatorso if the Imperium ever figures out a truly safe form of faster-than-light travel, it would face horrific rebel problems all across the galaxy.
