That's unfortunately, but they are trying and if you gently nudge them towards actually reading the GMing section in their system of choice, they will hopefully learn eventually. GMing is fucking hard and even if you are well versed in the rules, it is still something you can only get good at through lots of practice and lots of fucking up.

I remember having to fuck up half a dozen campaigns that either fizzled or crashed and burned before I ran a campaign so good that it kept going for 2 straight years.

While we're on the topic I recently went back and looked at some of the reactions to early aos in 2015 and it's pretty funny with the benefit in hindsight. People coping "gw just forgot to give these points, right? Right?". Also couple of guys proclaiming that this would be the death of gw as a company, if only they knew. Anyway, reaction to the stormies was more mixed than I expected honestly. There's a fair few conplaints about them all looking the same though, which y'know, fair enough.
>>
>>97231763
Early on I can see it, I know back in the day I had 0 attachment to Warhammer when the swap happened... I think I was a couple years into college at that point and just remember being like "They killed Fantasy for more space marines?" Glad I came back because AOS has some really cool shit in it. It's not been given the same polish story and lorewise as Fantasy or 40k but the models and concepts are pretty fucking sick.

I'm still gonna say that in retrospect the fatcast designs were pretty neat despite being a bit more over the top. I think GW has kinda lowered a bit of the fantastical with recent releases for better or worse.

Cool. You'll fit right in on this board.

>>97231280
Look preference is based on the game and the premise. No point in doing Furry mutants in a Mad Max-themed game, and no point doing tumormen in a TMNT game. If you're going to come here, you need to know the barest details of what playing a TTRPG is actually like.

MECTech is my system for mech-based combat.

Feel free to participate with questions or additions to any element of my system, or answers to questions that I ask. If you have your own design questions for TTRPGs, I'd be happy to give my 2 cents as well.

Yeah, Ewoks aren't cute cuddly teddybears. They're tribal hunterns that share their environment with a lot of dangerous wildlife, so they wouldn't survive if weren't fearsome fighters. But they're still a bunch of primitives armed with bows and arrows going against guys in full body armor and and science fiction beam guns. That should have been an incredibly one-sided fight.
The difference in tech level between Ewoks and stormtroopers is far higher than the difference between 1800s European nations and African tribes, and you can see how well that ended for the Africans.

the problem with underworld is it's not sure what it wants to be and I think there is a reason for that

it feels like they just made a 45 minute asajj ventress animated special (mostly to explain how she's alive and/or test the waters to see if she's marketable) (I can make a solid argument for this if anyone is interested) but then realised they could just chuck in a cad bane story, cut it up, and sell it as a tales series
ventress was basically all over the marketing and the main selling point for underworld, cad bane feels like an afterthought

I mean, if we're assuming a full gender-swap of the Skaven race, the rat-girls would be 'normal' whilst the rat-men would be bloated, unsightly and almost immobile 'Broood-Fathers' sporting a multitude of cocks of many different shapes, styles and mutations.
>>
There was some Skaven POV novels that go into their level of technology. One of the details that I liked was that the average "street" (tunnel) in a Skaven settlement is completely unlit - Skaven scamper through the tunnels entirely directed by their sense of smell, and shops have rags dipped into their product hanging in front of the door, to be smelled, instead of a painted sign. Skaven enjoy having lights, but it's apparently a luxury only enjoyed by very few. That's the level of tech you should be imagining. Other fun details include the "black corn", Skavens' only crop which is grown only in Skavenblight. It's absurdly expensive and disgusting to taste, but the wealthiest compete to eat a handful as a status symbol. Or cultural civil wars where some Skaven settlements just want to live underground peacefully and steal food from humans forever, a religious heresy when the Horned Rat preaches that they must rise and control the surface world eventually. The ongoing tensions with Pestilens, a pretty obvious Nurglite faction that very nearly overthrew the council of thirteen in a civil war generations ago. The ritualized body language that they use to silently communicate, or their ability to spray musks as a way of communicating.
I don't hate furrys on principle but putting a Skaven in a shower is badly missing the point of Skaven, which is both to show crushing filth and perdition and to show the total novelty of a society that's nothing like human civilization. It's similar to how gay artists draw Queek gay porn using human body language when the novels give LAVISH examples of Skaven body language that's totally inhuman. Why didn't you draw that? Lack of respect for the source material. Like if you're already gay I can understand why you wanna see Queek buttfuck Ska, sure, but don't make them all cute and smiley. They don't do that. But the straight artists are much, much worse because they're doing a rat with tits and putting her in the shower. Ugh!

What base size should I use for giant rats in Necromunda?
>>
>>97231543
Yes. In the Gothic sector they were mostly dealing with pirates and outcasts rather than a serious fleet, at least until Ulthwe' got involved (and fucked it up). Craftworlders in general, Yriel of Iyanden specifically (for scenario reasons), regular ol' Pirates/Corsairs, and Dark Eldar all had their own fleets. Interestingly, Corsairs could use allied Dark Eldar ships relatively freely and vice versa, but Craftworlders had to jump through hoops to use Corsair ships at all and couldn't touch DE at all.
Craftworld Eldar are a bit tougher than Corsair ships and MUCH more heavily-armed. No battleships, modular weapons on their cruisers, and semi-modular escorts plus the option for Ghost Ships. There are also unofficial rules for a Craftworld on the table and a scenario for fighting one, which is a nightmare.

>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 not
TC 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.

Idk if this was intentional or just a coincidence about the worldbuilding but while reading up on Islam for a college project I came across this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniconism_in_Islam
Creating paintings or sculptures of living beings is already a contentious topic in the Muslim faith, with some believing that by doing so you’re imitating and/or challenging god’s sacred authority as the creator of life. So what the Sultanate is doing with their homunculi and alchemical fuckery would be considered RIDICULOUSLY blasphemous. I know people have complained about the game walking on eggshells with Islam by not making the Iron Sultanate too grimdark in comparison to the Christian factions, but I haven’t seen anyone bring this up?

I always had the impression that the Synod and the Church looked like the same premisse mirrored on opposite sides of the conflict, at least lore-wise. If that will be case mechanically, however, I'm not so sure.
