And others have said that he'd just railroad people and shut down any ideas that weren't part of his plot, and treated all players with contempt, as if they were trying to ruin his game.

Yeah, he might be a little ugly from the front, but I like him nevertheless. The janky look kinda works since he's going to be serving as my daemon prince. Maybe the rider is actually the daemon prince, or maybe it's the chimera or the heavy bolter. Who knows? I just hope daemon princes are fun, I've been getting a little bit bored of the games I play always revolving around my chaos warrior death star and the characters I stuff into it. Regardless, we'll just have to see. I'll have to give him a proper name first.

No, it's not. That's not true for the canon example of Scarlet Whisper serving the Perfect of Paragon, nor for the other canon example of the Guild employing Dragon-Blooded mercenaries, nor for Dragon-Blooded mercenaries in general, nor for any less canon, table-specific takes on the idea.

Alright, fine, I'll admit that saying that it's not truer for any table ever was an exaggeration. Since claiming that it's "always joined to some petty smear against whatever exalt type" was even more of an exaggeration, though, I don't think you should complain.

>>97339438
I think one of the old devs just really like Promethean and wanted to shoehorn them into Exalted. I don't hate the Liminals' design space or the idea of a death-themed terrestrial-tier exalt in principle, but I think the Liminals are pretty lame. They would be more interesting if they were just some unique kind of monster instead of another exalt type.

There's such a thing as being a dragon patron.

You have bigger fish to fry than doing government work, but you're the strongest thing around.

So you install yourself as a figurehead, and tell them not to bother you unless you need to stab someone.

Occasionally you ask some of the peasants if there's a corruption problem or shockingly incompetent leadership. If they say yes, you stab a few officials until the problem resolves.

The Imperials will simply be able to respond better, in kind. The logistics will be vastly increased across the board.

most rebellions are because of chaos. if the Imperium cuts out Warp travel, that cripples and starves chaos

Owing to the natural difficulty of actually getting an asteroid, and the chance it doesn't contain any valuable metals in it, would it still make sense to break them down to use as shielding for permanent space habitats?

>>97345195

Absolutely. Asteroid composition is anything but monolithic, as it were, but loosely falls into 3 categories, C, M, and S type. Those are easy to remember since they are short for carbon, metal, and silicate, or stony. C-type, carbon rich asteroids, are the most common, making up 75% of asteroids, while S-type, silicate or stony asteroids, comes in a distant second at 17% , M-type Metallic asteroids are much less numerous.

Now when it comes to mining that hardly tells the whole story, M-types are mostly nickel and iron, neither of which we’d particularly want to bring home to Earth, but which would be valuable for building stuff in space. For that matter there are also several sub-types of asteroids and two different classifications systems, and the asteroid belt is anything but the only place you can find asteroids nor the nearest place to find them. It also is not unusual for two asteroids of different types to blunder into each other and merge or to be somewhere in between these types.

C-types, the most common asteroid and also the ones that gets ignored a lot in asteroid mining conversations focused on impressing folks with the idea of mountains of gold, are quite valuable themselves. They contain lots of water, which is never a bad thing to find in outer space. But they also contain plenty of life-useful elements and particularly noteworthy is phosphorus. Something that is quite hard to find on Earth in concentration and a major bottleneck on agriculture, so if asteroid mining ever gets heavily developed and cheap, that is the sort of thing we might bring home since it is valuable. Not as valuable as gold or platinum of course, nowhere near, and these big space boulders have a lot of those.

I noodle around making an installation map on Starcraft's editor until I get bored, then listen to some CDs and doodle.

MTGs prices are as valid as art is. It's a giant ponzi scheme where investards are desperately trying to offload their bags onto other investards and the very few consoomers who somehow have enough disposable income to buy overpriced cardboard but not enough intelligence to realize buying overpriced cardboard is retarded.

Take pic related for example, which is currently "valued" at $6500usd. Do you think there is one single solitary person on the planet that has bought that card who isn't an investard hoping to flip it on some other sucker? It - like all the other overpriced mtg cards - has no actual value because there are no actual costumers for it beyond wannabe investors. MTG is a zombie market.

I'm very experienced in both FFG and GURPS, having run both for years.
DH2e aptitudes make a lot of sense for 40k. The fundamental of life in the Imperium is that your knowledge and training is restricted solely to your service to the Emperor.
Of all systems, DH2e has the biggest minefield for character creation since you can lose out on discounts on things you like. The vast majority of players will think their guys suck if they don't get the maximal discount on all their abilities, but by comparison the DH2e warbands have the exact same expenses as groups from other games.
DH2e experience is goal-oriented (by RAW, most GMs ignore everything on the book though), while GURPS is based on player awards for roleplaying. In FFG character progression is very impactful, including the open-ended Only War and DH2e. In GURPS the players have to make up in their minds their own doors and cross them. In FFG, Fate Points and their flexible uses are the best meta-currency I've seen. Also, your attack rolls influencing your damage roll is neat (what would be GURPS' MoS can be swapped for your damage roll if better).
All the rules in FFG are... serviceable. GURPS has the best combat system of all times so I can't really compare them. But sometimes you want to buy the Talent that makes your gun shoot harder, be so bigoted that you hit better in melee, and get a bonus to hit for charging, and rolling a 10 so you get exploding dice and utterly destroy the traitors. You won't have too many issues with it otherwise.

So i was invited to play season of ghosts with free archetype, as i am not wanting to spoil myself i was wondering if anyone could help me settle on which class to play
i was thinking a orc base dragonblood. im torn between going for a dragon barbarian for the full dragon theme or going a str melee ranger.

With the Draconic codex stuff it would likely be sovereign dragon with the barbarian focusing on unarmed bites/grapples. but ranger also seems easy to fit and slot in narratively

can't the just say "You have such and such starting proficiencies instead of your base class ones. You don't gain class features that increase your proficiency in saves, perception, weapons and armor. Instead you gain these features..." or something?

To even make it begin to be worthwhile for casters like Oracle, Animist, or others that get either a Legendary Save or Medium Armor scaling, it would have to be like Path to Perfection: a way to choose your own boosts so that you feel like you have stronger opportunity cost. Furthermore, this gets a bit fucky with Cleric and the Doctrines: would you still get Shield Block and Deadly Simplicity on Warpriest, for example?

This all runs on the idea that a generic gish build is even a good idea in the first place. When a core aspect of the gish fantasy is having UNIQUE ways of meshing the distinct system mechanics together so that you actually feel like a full fantasy and not just a tool. Otherwise just play a martial and grab the spellcasting feats if it just about having valuable options to do on your turn.

For example, because Magus and Necromancer are confirmed to be in the same book, I'm hoping (huffing hard on the copium) that there's a distinct Death Knight CA that combines the two. A Magus wouldn't normally have room in their action econ to be commanding thralls nor a Necromancer have the sturdiness or weapon score to be on the frontlines (inb4 magus defenses, it's still better than playtest Necro). Anything that combines the two would have to make up unique synergies that enable their features, like sacrificing thralls to reup Spellstrike as a free action, or letting anyone standing next to a thrall count as flanked for your magical strikes. These can't be generic powers that a universal gish option can allow, it is most reasonable to be a thing that specific classes can engage with.

Barbarians are really fun to play, although I haven't tried one with the remaster, and grappling as a combat tactic isn't just cool but also useful and goes a long way if properly used in combo with other melees there might be in your party. I'd go for that and

I remember people having a meltdown over some guy being in a kink club inspired by Gorian fiction, and Gor is a fantasy series about male supremacy (and some people joke that even the gravity is sexist because men bulk up because of the world's intense gravity, women do not). Meanwhile, this kink club had women in it who were into the whole sub-dom thing.

>>97340878
No, I did.

>A GM shouldn't be writing anything
Game primer (including available character options, basic setting information so the players can make characters that fit within the game world, how the game is starting, houserules/homebrew, etc)
Notes (of player choices and intent, of what they've done, of which npcs feel what way about what they've done for later reference)
Setting document (for both personal reference and verisimilitude of the setting as well as helping players make their characters if they ask for more specifics about where their character is from/what species/race/ancestry/whatever they are if applicable)
Code (if you're using a VTT like Roll20 and you're not running corposlop systems).

So yes, this point is objectively wrong and only a nogames would make it.

>You can make a setting without writing one, very easily in fact.
You literally cannot, because the game requires a setting of some kind to exist, unless you're just shitting out your players' characters into an empty, featureless white void of nothingness, which seems to be how faggots like (you) think TTRPGs are run.
>you can take notes about anything you need to remember about it for later.
You need things to take notes on, retard-kun. If you don't have a setting, there's no world, no npcs, nothing for the player characters to interact with. You're putting them in a white void of nothing.
