Necromancy Edition>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/Comment too long.

>TQHistorical recollections from many battles in history, Band of Brothers, Generation Kill, that one documentary on the Arab Spring.
Apparently there's a vidya game called Hunger (not to be mistaken with The Hunger, Fear and Hunger, or Hunger Games franchise). The premise is napoleonic era zombie apocalypse, remnants of mankind keeping the hordes at bay with faith and experimental weaponry. Which is admittedly a bit of a stretch from WW1 of the faithful against assorted spawns of devil's asshole, but I feel like there is a bit of a similar vibes there anyway.
>TQ but reversedI finished reading Between Two Fires over a year ago and first heard about TC while looking online for discussion about the book and similar media. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on the hunt for a book in the same genre/vibe as TC
>>97356328In terms of media related, A Roadside Picnic/STALKER gives a distinct Trench Pilgrim feel,Desperately trying to deal with supranatural forces you barely understand.
>>97356585Roadside picnic looks cool, will check it out

If you had a wide variety of characters we wouldn't be seeing the same ones so often. We have a few posters here that really mix up their prompt styles/subjects and none of them use Perchance.

What do you guys even do when you world build? How do you decide what to work on? Like, if someone asked me a question about my setting, I could probably come up with an answer, but I can't imagine myself sitting down to "world build" abstractly without any goal in mind.
>>97356697Worldbound is a bottomless well. If you put yourself to it, it is a never-ending endeavour. It feels like work, it is work, but you risk to never stop world-building instead of coming with stuff as necessary. The best philosophy is of thinking with the iceberg analogy.

>>97356546He has a picture of putting Gohan up his ass, he is very much gay for Gohan.
>>97355619I've never actually watched a PreCure show, but the one where they're witches in a magic school appeals to me, mostly because I like magic schools.The OG One also appeals to me because I like PreCure Black's outfit
>>97355990The Witch Hunters codex had a few strange things too.Battle sisters squads being 10 to 20 models, while the 2001 CA was 5 to 10.Retributors squads lost their Heavy Flamer with the WH codexImmolator also lost the ability to shoot the Twin heavy flamer while moving 12"Till this day I have no idea why the Dominion squad special weapon cost more the CA version costed the same (well they where just called Battle sisters in a fast attack slot) and the Dominions are almost the same but can be taken in smaller squads and can take more special weapons. But the ability to take more is negated by the extra cost
>>97341186Karl Kopinski, Paul Dainton, Adrian Smith and John Blanche basically created the feel of 40k. Modern, antiseptic and bland digital 40k art looks so soulless in comparison.
>>97354607Yeah. It requires a lot of restraint to have a good game in my opinion. Otherwise it is either a comedic or tedious mess. I just remember everyone flooding their armies with bullshit to fuck each other over. There is a reason 99% of things were nerfed and the FOC was added in 3rd.
>>97356560I just found out that Adrian Smith has a Youtube page where he paints, including "fan art":https://www.youtube.com/@adriansmithartist/videosDude hasn't lost his touch. Still an absolute legend.
>>97356684Never played 2nd, but reading the rules it sound like Necromunda.Extremely easy to break it on accident and you can make some bullshit without even trying, while also building a gang/army that is mechanically not fun to play.

>>97356347Super thankfull for the art, but do you have also the other side with the rules?I would be gratful even if you only had some pics of the rules. I checked on his site and the only thing you can buy is the physical copy wich sold out and throught the photos you can only see the rules they have on all the basic DM screens.
>>97356470No. I want the back side too. I requested it here some time ago but I dont think anyone has it in good quality.

>>97355905There he goes. One of Kami-sama's own prototypes. A high-powered weeb of some kind never even considered for First Lord. Too stupid to live, and too angry to die.

>>97356449>>97356459You're good man. I like the visual of her squeezed in the cockpit with herself smushing into the lower half of the console. If I could find some good references for a cramped cockpit I could doodle that.Shes about thirty-five or so. I thought of making her forty but unlike a universe like Halo, medical tech across the board isn't standard, so I don't think she'd look nearly as good as she does now if she were.
>>97355905>Favorite House?Steiners, followed up by Liao.Steiners because I feel some kinship with the Germans and Liao because they're batshit insane, and I love that. Ventrue and Malkavians in BT form. Plus, the Spectre and Wolfhounds are my favorite lights from Steiner, and the Men Shen and Vindicator are cool.

Where are my Titanicus chads at?
>>97355779In the same room as the Battlefleet chads.
>>97355762I wish they'd included a plastic Samwise with the phial in there. Hobbit minis are only an inch tall FFS. And it would have increased the set's appeal to collectors/painters/diorama-makers. And the competitive crowd are mad the base size went up. I'll probably grab it eventually.
>>97355762GW has been moving away from Resin for a while now. I wouldn't be surprised if we get any new resin models after next week
>>97348058I have kind of told him that screening is a better choice for the most part, but he just says he would rather deal with the ball carrier directly rather than waiting, and he says that the threat of a blitz is still there so he wants to take the fight to players directly to hit people before he gets hit. He even sends his throwers and catchers after people. I would get it if he throw his weight against stunties or he was making a risky play for a touchdown, but this is not it. I have shown screening when I play other teams, but he does not seem to fully get what I am doing.

>>97355372>monkeigh?????
Wtf is this new horror.
+ a few repacks.
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97351510Yeah theres no good faith argument here.
>>97349794I mean yes this movie was famously repulsive. Most depictions of animal people are less disgusting than this.
>>97356436Ngl I'd still do a significant portion of the female cast
How do I introduce mythologically-inspired Feline People? Batet-kin Cat People or Leopard-Men in Not-Africa? Jaguar people in Not-America?
>>97356577Which probably has little to do with the artstyle being good and more with you being desperate horndog.
Do you prefer Pokémon, Yugioh, or Magic the Gathering?
>>97354184It's not very common. But PTA was basically invented here.
>>97326799>pokemoncool cards, solitaire simulator>yugiohbest monster designs, cancer coinflip simulator>mtgshit cards, shittier art direction, mechanics bloat, commanderification killed 1v1, if it wasn't for mana it would just be yugiohPlayed all of themdespise all of them
>>97326799MTG seems to have the best underlying game systems (yes, lands are still the the best resource system out of any of the big TCG's and half the problem of new games is trying to "fix" lands)WOTC is still retarded however
>>97328387Pokemon: best gameplay, best cost, but dogshit artMTG: Dogshit gameplay, extremely expensive, dogshit artYGO: the most dogshit gameplay ever, extremely expensive, ok artHonestly I would play Pokemon if the cards werent so ugly
that's the second-best outcome tbqh.the best is just: delete thread, ban OP. you COULD make some /pol/ thread ACTUALLY about big-lipped gorilla-men in your setting. or you could simply not, and /tg/ remains better off for it.

It is probably not too controversial to say that the art of modern rulebooks is made with female representation in mind.These women are predominantly filling important roles, such as archmages, military officers, or nobles.But how come there is barely any art that shows them in peril, or at a clear disadvantage? Regardless of their status.There is no shortage of men in peril.Neither in classic nor in modern art.

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. 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?

I noticed the last thread was a troll thread so re-posting here. I wanted to say thanks to anyone who helped me with some questions about mutant future and labyrinth lord in a previous thread. I now had a question about some supplements. I heard that apes victorious added some neat stuff for mutant future by some people, but I also heard that it actually is a bit harder to convert to mutant future and does not add much. Does anyone know if that is the case? Some of the powers sound neat, and my players want to use more offensive mental abilities. Are the psi powers vs mental mutations just different names?How is the advanced mutant companion? I know it is made by someone other than goblinoid games, so I was wondering if it added a lot of neat options without changing the core game. It looks like it adds feats and skills which seems to go against the grain. Another book that looked better in my opinion was creatures of the tropical wastes.
>>97356212>Is it called Dark Tower?Yes.>How is it with respect to Thracia?It's considered extremely good. BE aware, though, it's a much higher-level module than Thracia; you can't just segue into the one from the other.

>>97356212I've run Dark Tower. I found it perfectly serviceable. The dungeon itself didn't blow my mind or anything, but the opening setup with the village is what really led to a lot of memorable play, as the players found themselves determined to save the poor villagers only to slowly figure out what was actually going on. My crew had a good time with it.
Time to talk about weird monsters again.As usual, any rants about Bog will be treated as bait unless you have actual proof.
