>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/They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more. For posterity's sake, the old mega will still be kept active even if it's unlikely to need updating: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQComment too long.

>>97346495What format do you play where you see this card?
>>97345925Drop all support for EDH. Disband the rules council, remove all mention it from the rules, do not consider commander for future releases, do not print any more commander product. As far as WotC should be concerned, EDH does not exist.Everything else people say is a symptom. EDH is the disease. The only tragedy of Sheldon's death is that it didn't happen earlier.
>>97346648The one where I search cards to look at options for brews.
>>97346450Twenty years ago, there was no such thing as a Tarmogoyf or a Jace. At best, Tarmogoyf might have existed as a card that had been sent to the printer.But I get it.Duals cost more than $100 in that era.
>>97345925I'd abolish all format restrictions, reprint old cards and sets according to market value and player demand, ban proxies from official play but as a trade off the ban list will be abolished. As long as you own the card you may play it. Bring back Ante. There will be only 1 competitive format that includes all cards that were ever printed, and it will be known officially as Kitchen Table Magic.

>>97346644I think this is the one NEA used against me in our game.
>>97346644Yeah that looks like the smart money. The only mech other than the Exterminator that out-armors it at that speed that isn't a quad is the Morpheus and I'm not about to start running a bunch of solaris fits for my mech-techs to fuck up. Besides the Streak 6 gets me some of the crit-seeking I'm missing. Plus I'm a sucker for MASC.Thanks chief.

>>97345857An overly muscular devaronian with filed down horns, lots of small cuts on his face and hands like shovels grabs a guy by the eyesockets with both hands, kicks him in the groin then throws him out of a window. All of that because the guy said his roughed up coat and face looked like Alderaan

>>97346583I was gone for a month because my family is overseas and I can work from home
>>97346318Thx anon! And you're right on about the bottom middle dude lmao, he looks incredibly deranged
>>97346452>>97346478Ill give that a try, I just wanted to be able to see the bottem with skulls and what not. I fucked around with 3d printing for so long I just really didnt want to have another liquid resin mess to clean up and didnt know if there was an easier alternative or somthing to pick up at flgs. Think blood angle red contrast would do well with a light coating?>>97346463Weather and patience willing. Last time I tried acoustic resin setting, my item was covered in debris and knocked over by small animals (I live in the woods) and was still tacky.
>>97346603>I can work from homeThat's not meaningful on it's own as a statement.I too work from home, and I couldn't possibly be gone for 3 days in a row because the cattle would be starving.
>>97346618>my item was covered in debris and knocked over by small animalsYou can put it inside, there's this thing called a window that doesn't block the UV spectrum of sunlight at all.
Thoughts on Scion?
>>97344808i see, thanks
>>97344855Origin and hero have their share of silly powers too like Flatlander letting you punch someone into next turn as heroic knack.
>>97333091They somehow perfectly captured the AI vibe before that was even a thing
>>97345505It's just shitty deviantart tier art, plenty of it looked off like that
>>973426901e or 2e? 1e is a few steps more on the simulationist side since it gives more hard numbers on some things, but both are pretty narrative. 1e combat is also starts getting broken when epic dex above 3 comes into play and it just gets more shattered as it goes.
Could it work in a /tg/ context? Say you used the Damaging Objects rules from the d20 System.
does the rail gun in this game:1. pwnor 2. pwn af?
>>97344192>turn corner>get 1 tapped by a merc with a railgunit made the hardest difficulty ACTUAL HELL
>>97344420LITERAL AIMBOTS WITH X-RAY VISIONFUCK
>>97344490the bit where you're on a timer to do the upload and you have to run through a hallway full of mercsthank god the precision rifle is a great weapon and sounds awesome
>>97344420For me it was >Get to submarine bay>Sub blows up when you release it from clamps
Douchemachine used to be the largest competition to GW. Now look at it and laugh
>>97345312They were one of the last holdouts, but have been switching to resin and plastic with mixed results for the past few years.
>>97344652Might be. I think it's mainly from how the website selling Cryx forces describes their situation as>"Stirred to rise from its deathly slumber through insidious bargains wrought by the Orgoth, a terrible new power stirs on the edge of the Iron Kingdoms."Which could either mean they dug up more Orgoth tech, or like how other people are interpreting it to men they made a bargain with the Orgoth Sea Raiders to conquer the mainland together.
>>97332398Like >>97333357 said, Steamforged officially announced that a new faction based on the Protectorate will be showing up this year.
>>97344128There's a ton of lore for MK4, its just all paywalled in the app. Which, I know a lot of people are mad about, but I mean, come on, is paying $15 for a month's access and downloading all the stories any worse than paying for several $15+ books for the stories? Or just do the yearly to get your uber monstrosity and take your time downloading the lore. Still stuck reading off of a screen, which sucks, but better then no lore.
>>97344573They are. Orgoth killed Blightergast and gave his Anthanc to Toruk as a trade for an alliance.

>>97345761Lol, in fairness orcs can also take the occasional hit, they don't only need to dodge.
>>97345670the power of gork/mork…or simply being an exceptionally big gigantic fucking huge green retard fungus muscle monster that is only capable of thinking about killing the thing in front of it. orcs kinda get bigger and bigger the more things they kill and eat and dominate i thought?
I wanted to do a WFRP game set in mordheim because I loved that game, but thinking about it more what can I do so it isn't a constant combat slog?
>>97346344There are still places to go that aren't immediately dangerous, taverns inns and shops still exist, they're simply more run down and likely to be of ill repute. The whole place isn't a smoking ruin filled with wyrdstone that you battle some dudes over (only most of it), consider the post-game where you explore without incident, go shopping and search for veterans.
>>97341539Nice to see mods ban people who try to keep Perrynigger away while literally allowing him to ruin and run wild with his off topic historical spam. The janitors on this board are legit worse than useless niggers and I hope perrynigger has a heart attack for for subjecting us to his vile hatred. Incredible what one loser can accomplish in damaging a community. I’m off to better forums where people like him aren’t allowed to shit all over everyone.
Why don't zombies eat each other?
>>97300419>Why don't zombies eat each other?Depends on the setting. It's usually this:>>97300650>They don't register as food to each other.Because usually, zombies are driven to "eat" living humans as a vector for infection, not as a nutrient source.
>>97331373This sort of thing is why I realised this inane question threads aren't for any actual purpose, at least not for locals. If you can answer this question with multiple answers yourself already, then you don't need the thread, but if you're a retard and you can't answer the question yourself, then the thread is also redundant because you clearly don't have the mental capability to benefit from the thread anyway. It's like a creative catch 22.Which then makes me think what is it actually for? Why do people make artificial pointless threads? Training AI? Stealing content for YouTube? Trying to disguise how few of us real posters are left? I can certainly see why most creatives jumped ship years ago.
>>97314824>Romero said it wasn't political>while also saying that at the time they couldn't help but be influencedOk
>>97345063>while also saying that at the time they couldn't help but be influencedWhere?
The Video Dead did, when they were locked up together.
What are some fantasy and sci-fi movies you should watch to inspire your games and players?
>>97337021There was a pretty good comic adaptation by Stan Sakai the dude who drew the Usagi Yojimbo comic. They're not drawn as rabbits though. Usagi's a good book.

>>97339777>Everything that you have said regarding it so far has affirmed my concerns that players will bitch and moan about "optional" mechanics at the expense of players who want to actually use these systems.NTA, but maybe the answer is to cut down on these optional systems if they're causing friction? Red has a problem where it doesn't know if it wants to be a hard, crunch focused game or a loose narrative game and those two design principles often butt heads.I don't think putting invention in a separate splat is necessary, but it is odd that the Tech has an ability that basically gives the Player carte blanche to break the game when Red is typically very anal about combat balance and all the Tech's other abilities are pretty balanced.
>>97341241I am not confident you are doing this on purpose so I'm trying not to chew out your entrails, but the answer to the problem of 'people keep wanting to cut systems' being 'you should cut systems' is textbook begging the question and I'm about a minute away from actually fucking tweaking over it.Without the ability to make new stuff, Tech is just a slow Fixer with a bunch of extra skill points and the ability to fix their armor for a fight and no social skills.
>>97341731>Without the ability to make new stuff, Tech is just a slow Fixer with a bunch of extra skill points and the ability to fix their armor for a fight and no social skills.This has a really simple solution: Don't put Tech in core. Only introduce it alongside its complex subsystem.
>>97310423This Gonk don't crack borgs.
We're going to have to come up with a phrase for the new era of Warhammer 40,000 ushered in by the Amazon TV show, DoW 4 and Total War 40k, and increased market value of Games Workshop.nu40k isn't going to cover it. nu40k is already bad enough for many of us from headier days like 1st through 4th edition. You are going to see horrific debasements to the thing you know and love that you will still see with your eyes closed. Every 80 IQ person with internet access will have an opinion on Warhammer without knowing what a Tau Remora Drone is.
>>97344553Craphammer 40gay?
>>97344553Seeing as Tau are nu40k bullshit and should be removed from the setting, I think you're part of the problem >B-but muh 3eNah
>>97345237>t. New Vegas glucker
>>97344605>>97345237I feel like Fallout isn't the same thing at all. Fallout has some lore, some depth and some decent entries but nowhere near the quantity of WH and the last thing hardcore fans of the series genuinely care about came out 15 fucking years ago. Fanbase was barely alive anyway. Bethesda turned the setting it into pretty much a franchise that exists only to push merch and low quality products a long time ago and the TV series was exactly that, also clearly aimed at normie-normiesMeanwhile 40k still has very large, active and alive communities that are going to get flooded and gradually morphed into something largely different. TV show secondaries will probably be largely deflected, but game secondaries from Total War or DoW4 often do try to stick around and get into fandom, despite usually sticking out like a sore thumb
>>97346133Lmao. You lost that battle decades ago brother. Still seething about Matt Ward and Newcrons too?
