A game can be both fun and have longevity. I've found games that emphasize "rule of cool" (ie. if the DM likes you then you can do whatever you want) tend to get lots of laughs but then fizzle out after the first session or two.

Stormtroopers *were* elite infantry, they were not special forces. I know the Crayon Eaters over in America like to believe otherwise, but units like the Marines - which is the closest IRL equivalent -are not on par with actual commando forces like the SAS or Delta. They can call themselves "operators" and spout tacticool babble all they like, they will never be on that level.

Moloch's Fun Park 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 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.

Actually it is more historical. It the old Rus' times it was named Kyev. After tha fall of Rus due to Mongol invasion "ikavism" appeared in Ukrainian language, so "e" changed to "i": Kyiv, when the city was under The Grand Duchy of Lithuania and Rzeczpospolita. "Kiev" is a modern name of the city from Russia under imperial times.

So for "the principality of" it is more accurate to have Kyiv or Kyev, there are more authentic vibes.

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?

TTRPGs are a social game first and foremost. That means there's unspoken rules that vary from group-to-group, but a common one is "acceptable breaks from sensibility" in the name of game experience or table cohesion. It's the kind of thing that keeps the bitter rivalry between the Elf and the Dwarf largely to amusing banter and not outright PvP. It's an innate instinct: nobody likes to spoil the atmosphere, because that's a large part of the appeal of a good game (alongside the freedom).

That being said, there are also times when the group's course of action is patently retarded and you can't meaningfully push back on it without feeling like you'd cause a big fight over nothing (and then feel obligated to keep comrades away from the consequences), or something a character cannot abide has to be "sanded over" somewhat, or you as the GM don't want to cultivate the feeling that you're antagonizing your players by hitting them over the head with "you murdered someone because it was convenient and didn't even take measures to cover your tracks" or whatever unhinged misadventure occurred because something about the player position of the table cause human beings to lose IQ.

Have you ever had that feeling? I think I see enough greentexts to think it's common.

>It was never directly stated that the Primarch's were clones.
It is literally write in the next editions (before Erda) how Primarchs were created 100% from Emperor's DNA.

>Salamanders were just black guys
Read OP again, "reverse albinos", BLACK-skinned caucasians (european skull and physiognomy).

>The custodes were 100% nothing because there were only four lines
Still, they were 100% males, if you want females you have the Sisters of Silence.

>The Emperor's motivations were always shady
Ok, at least back then he was not the "CEO of daddy issues".

>The Imperium were literally breeding with Eldar in the RT rulebook.
Ok, eldars are "human-like", you can have the "honorary humans" category, but at least the Imperium still was xenophobic in a cool way, without all the 50/50 Schrödinger's human supremacism of the current edition.

When last we met, we made G.E.T.S. (Generally Entertaining Team-built System). Thus far, it seems to be a fairly minimalist system.

Now, we shall make our first setting for this system.

If your proposed idea gets doubles, it is canonized. Any canon characters, worldbuilding, themes, et cetera can be modified (but not outright contradicted or discarded) by triples, quadruples, et cetera.

Let us continue.

Completely understandable friend just thought I would share is all, I got nothing better to do with my time currently

I feel like this edition has alot of objectively bad things about it and is absolutely where the alot of worst qualities of current editions showed up. But I feel like I prefer playing this edition compared to a lot of previous editions and 10th edition. Its a weird transitional period where there's still a lot of the old units that haven't been legended yet while still having the fucking Primaris lot. Its strange but I don't feel like I'm missing out on much staying on this edition and playing with friends casually instead of going back to playing the current edition.

I enjoy playing some Index era 8th casually from time to time, it feels a bit like core book 3rd and as long as you aren't dealing with WAAC tournament grinders (which nobody still playing 8th should be having to deal with) it is a very fun way to play the game as far as Modernhammer editions go. I still mostly play 2nd, a little 3rd and 5th but Index 8th is the newest form of the game to exist in my rotation and I don't see that changing for a long time.

>Least delusional Eldar player

I remember 3rd was when the delusional BS started, online all Eldar players were discouraging everyone from playing them as they were for advanced players only when all they did was stick starcannons on everything.

Saying 7th taudar was only dominant a short time or that it was only as bad as necrons is pure delusion. 1000pts of taudar can easily table 2000 pts of necrons. You could even table 5000 pts of orks
