I think they're supposed to be Petrifex Elite. Black bones & red details fit the PE paint scheme. One of the Liege-Morteks (I feel like the plural should be Lieges-Mortek, but whatever) is painted in the PE colors as well, so maybe they're all part of a showcase force.

Where would the standard fantasy races map onto a Napoleonicesque setting?
>>
>>97285005
Because there's no reason to. The Napoleonic Wars are already interesting. Adding dragons doesn't do anything and would bring into question a lot of what people like about Napoleonic warfare (the infantry tactics and formations that are unlike any other period). If you're interested in the period, by a copy of The Campaigns of Napoleon (David G. Chandler) and The Peninsular War (Charles Esdaile), read them, then buy a copy of either Age of Eagles or Field of Glory Napoleonics and enough Perry or Victrix figures to make a brigade with a few battalions of infantry, a unit or two of cavalry, and some guns.

This thread made me wonder how a napoleonic version of Dishonored would look like. Thats a type of setting that i can see working, with less focus on open warfare and more focussed about urban stuff, the occult and the supernatural. Just not with a victorian steampunk coat, but a napoleonic one.

Just like GW we produce both physical, plastic products along with media, meaning digital but also books and comics. GW absolutely get heavily scrutinized for emissions because they make plastic toys. We've got a contract with a company that delivers an application service specifically so we can track emissions for ESG reporting. I bet GW does too.

By the time Light hacks drones, infiltrates his fortress and generally action movie heroes his way to his lair, Wiley is having a full-on existential crisis about whether he should've turned on that machine at all. The entire Protomen saga culminates in a fucking Liquid Snake-style knife fight between two old men that ends with Light trying to convince him to turn off the machine with Emily's music box, and Wily having his robot guards beat the shit out of him in a fit of rage

Wound-based death spirals only being appropriate for specific campaign genres is why I generally prefer Injury-based Health. Instead of taking losing a numerical value of HP or taking increasing penalties that murder your rolls, I'd rather your actions become more restricted the more injured you are.

Injured Legs? Halved movement.
Injured Arm? Can't use it for most actions.
Injured Head? Lose your Reaction or equivalent.
Injured Eye? Reduced perception and ranged attack distance.
And so on and so forth until you succumb to your injuries. Gradually narrow down the options instead of just making the PCs useless because they fail everything due to penalties.

3.5e handled this by giving elves a bonus to Intelligence, which is truly WotC's official only trait that makes them stronger. At the heart of your post, yes. Yet this is all we got and now even the stat bonus for species has been removed.

Why do elves deserve to be better wizards? Because they are documented as getting their powers from years of study and hard work. A being that can live 5 times longer than a human has much more time to study and develop. If we were being real, there would be no comparison, although with a game interested in balance, they won't make a dichotomy that severe.

Why can't Druids wield bows?

>bow: wood
>arrow: wood
>arrowhead: bone or flint

Even crossbows can be made wholly of wood and shoot bone-tipped bolts. If anything, making these things actually requires very good understanding of trees and properties of wood.
Regardless of all that, the whole non-metal theme is a meme. If you can cook stuff in a bronze cauldron, you should be allowed to use a bronze helmet too.

it's not a depiction, Drids are the Muslim equivalent of a Friar. As in a non-ordained priest, but is educated in their ways. So a Druid would be a muslim educated in priesthood but has not officially joined the priesthood yet.

>Druids are named after what they are based on: the priests of Celtic societies in Western Europe from Antiquity.
Yes, but also no. D&D druids have very little relation to ancient Celtic Druids. They weren't "nature worshippers," but a hereditary class of priests/jurists/"white-collar" types.

I really don't see the connection the other anon is making with Muslim imams. Presumably the scimitar-thing is due to historical Druid's carrying sickles (because "hurr, curved blade!" I guess).
>>
>>97381270
In a similar vein, I just think of Druids as more interested in becoming an animal to fight or just hitting things with sticks they find. I don't really see them "training" with a weapon in militaristic style, something you would need to wield a bow. And yes, for lack of a better term, I guess I would say that Druids are too "stupid" to be good with weapons traditionally. Do exceptions exist? Sure, but a true depiction wouldn't use a blade or bow.
