>>97352508Interesting to see Gundam that high
>>97352541This video is going over domestic popularity, but it's not like people aren't enjoying Gundam. It actually has a lot of people playing it currently (despite the shitty job Bamco has done launching the game.)
>>97352508What's that "insect master machine" game. That translation seems off and the logo is in Japanese.

>>97351443Give me one good post-industrial battle and we will see if I am able to make a simplistic reductionist sentence to describe it just like you did here
>>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.

It's pic related. Peter Jackson tried to copy Blix's swag for a good reason
>>97342978Yeah, I'd put it under "hag" more than "goblin".
>>97313690This is my primary argument that all goblins should have massive cocks. Because it's undeniable that that goblin has one, and that makes big dick goblins canon.
>>97352975yeah, but he's the goblin KING.so all that tells me is that goblins probably determine leadership by dick size. which feels like a very goblin thing to do tbqh.

What can you do to make bandit encounters more immersive and interesting than the old ambush-fight shtick?
>>97349486Hire hungry samurai.
>>97349486I'm assuming Generic Medieval Setting (TM) here. >The party come across the ransacked caravan. Throats cut, boxes broken open, and a hasty trail leading off in the forest nearby. You listen closely to hear laughter and lots of noise which means lots of men.>The GM hands the party's scout a note. 'You see them well before they can spot you. Six men you count. Spears and crossbows. Poorly hidden behind the birch trees up ahead.' And let the party ambush the ambushers>You round the bend to see a large log blocking the trail/road. Near the log are three men dressed in haphazard armor. They are in the process of hanging the third of three men from a nearby tree. (The men doing the hanging are the Reeve and his company. The hanging men are bandits)> A beggar on the road with a sickly boy. He'll ask for more than the party are willing to give. He'll hold the party up with a shaky hand and crossbow after the party refuse to give more.>The bandits are the government. You've reached a toll bridge. The footmen demand silver. If you give it too earnestly, they'll also demand to search the goods for "contraband". One of the footmen says he'll wave the fee if the pretty woman gives him a good kiss (something slimy will get everyone prickly). They'll ask for a donation to "ignore" the "contraband" they found among you. (optional twist: you notice that the waffenrock they are wearing are a little too dirty and a little too bloody. They aren't the baron's men after all.. just pretending to be!)>>97352593Solid ideas here.
>>97349486It's not an ambush. These bandits are confident. This is their highway, or their bridge, or something else of that nature. They're here to collect their toll, and they're not above beating it out of you.
>>97349486>puckee spamming his commission againhttps://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/v9he6h/calloway_pierce_highwayman_art_by_indigo_jenar_art/https://desuarchive.org/_/search/image/oYACxsqx5QYwSnNxrb1AcQ/>43 times
>>97349486There's always the option to add morally grey elements.Alternatively you can add wrinkles like hostages, captured beasts, magical allies, dubious identity.It could be foreign agents trying to destabilize a region that have a barbarian lizardman they release, hidden traps all around the battlefield and the leaders surrender when loss is certain, claiming that they have a hostage that will die if they don't return
What is the counterculture of 2020s, that could be used as the basis for a contemporary countercultural tabletop game?Take the World of Darkness for example, which was so grounded in the the counterculture of the 90s that it comes across as dated and strange today. How would you update the World of Darkness so that it better represents the counterculture of today?Nightmare Mode: Talk about more than just politics. There's more to rebellion against the status quo and the prevailing social norm than who you vote for.

Nono guys trvst, the patriarchy is so counter culture now, ever since I once saw a woman with coloured hair and a pronoun pin at a trade fair.
Disregard that this is literally what corpos look like in every cyberpunk game ever, these guys are actually super punk rock because they're against racial dysgeny!!
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97348181I’m not so paranoid as to think that every depiction of an animal person is furry. None of the examples here scream furry, they’re simply beast folk that wouldn’t look out of place in any fantasy setting. You are seeing furries where they don’t exist my friend
>>97350808Also the human face is literally just copy-pasted onto the CGI head.That adds a few more notches into the uncanny valley.
>>97343147>Women are basically pets you're not allowed to discipline in western culture.skill issue
>>97351623That’s what those design are. It’s not just cats, those little Ewoks from the Pillars of Eternity looked off in a more realistic style. It’s a terrible design that’s only saved by artstyle. Imagine if Izutsumi was depicted with hyper realistic fur and a realistic human face, I doubt people would find her as cute as she is in anime style.

>>97350702I still think they look bad. When compared to every other AoS line, they're very lackluster and uninspired.
>>97302988The new slimmed down models actually look like decent fantasy paladins and are entirely serviceable, with some even possessing hints of SOVL, so there's not much to write home about. Thankfully the era of those embarrassing sigmarine monstrosities is long over.

Stop looking at fantasy settings and its cultural dialogue through contemporary utilitarian lenses. Your present reasoning and thoughts are a direct result of sociocultural narratives, they're not objectively reasonable or the apex of human thought.

>>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.

>>97352689Shit, you right. My bad.
>>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.
