The Brotherhood of Randis found an exodus era SLDF cache that was had SLDF, RWR Terra Corps, and even some Age of War mechs. Basically all the shit they didn't want to take with them and couldn't be bothered to scrap.

I'm a firm believer that every company gets one(1) actual honest to god unicorn; but I feel they'd better be from former RWR space or it'd be way too silly. The obsolete trait also puts the squeeze on it pretty hard, but if it thematically matches the rest of the force I'd let it slide up til around Clan Invasion-- and past that I'd probably not fuss for PUGs if it's not grossly outperforming other forces.

I feel like making something, ideally something OSR-adjacent. This is kind of an open-ended question: what RPG supplement or other cool thing does /tg/ want to see? Think something you'd pay between $3 and $5 for.

I've got some game design and writing experience. I can handle graphic design and illustration (and sound too, if relevant). I just want some input on what you think might be cool. Trying to decide what to put a little time into.

Funny enough, not that much of it! I mean there's some because the entire theocracy is women, but there's none of that weird fetishy drow shit. Dark elf women like dick.

Now you could accuse me of a tf fetish, because dark elves are all artificial - they are born from an alchemical process that turns a human or demihuman child into a dark elf. I don't though.

Where does the idea that the Imperial Guard are elite come from? Some of their regiments are literally recruited from Feudal Worlds where the local have never even seen a lasgun before. A good chunk of the regiments are noted for using primitive tactics including WW1 tactics, Napoleonic style warfare, and even pre-historic barbarian savagery. Their lascannons and flak armor might be good by today's standards but they're not good by the setting's standards, they're not even good by the Imperium's, and everybody else has the armor or toughness that makes the lasgun utterly inadequate. Pretty much every conflict of note ends up requiring Space Marines to pull them through, even conflicts against the fucking Tau which are like 1/1000000th the size of the Imperium.

Man, it's been a while since I've responded to /tg/ bait. Almost every modern elite military unit hadn't held a gun until they were enlisted. It's outright illegal in many nations, and even in America, most people don't own a gun.
>Their lascannons and flak armor might be good by today's standards, but they're not good by the setting's standards. They're not even good by the Imperium's
It's better or equivalent to what local PDFs have, and their training outweighs what any PDF has by a lot. Half of Imperial forces are local PDF. IG are better trained and armed minority, which makes them elite.

From guardfag's retarded headcanon.

Imperial Guard has always been the bunch of sorry asses ala troops caught in the Vietnam War. Some are more elite than others, but merely by the virtue of their world being more killy than others.

By that logic your average Viking, Aztec eagle warrior or WW2 Japanese grunt would make todays soldiers look like pussies, too. And those are just three examples.

Hordes of Shitical Roll fans and powergamers infest modern D&D. They are literal virgin babies. Literally all the powergamers I know are actual fucking virgins in their mid-20s. Whereas all the people I play OSR with save for one are married or in serious relationships. Really says a lot about your power-fantasy power-wank games and how they make up for what a failure you are in real life.

There is literally nothing interesting or compelling about modern D&D. The only possible way to make it compelling is by the DM working explicitly against the system. 5th Edition D&D combat is (1) easy, (2) free of consequences, (3) equipped with a set of rules to let players offload blame for their failure onto the DM (challenge rating), and (4) so hilariously unbalanced it doesn't even represent anything. There's no reason not to get into a fight in 5e cause you'll just heal once you take a nap. Hit points mean literally nothing except what the DM wants them to so the game loses all context and damage becomes meaningless. Even when you die, you have to be coup-de-graced 2 more times to make sure you're actually dead. Characters get so much plot armor that level 1 becomes a hilarious Three Stooges skit and the entire game just looks like a vidya, where "dying" means you just go down so your teammates have to revive you by waving their hands over you for a few minutes. At least you remain unconscious for a bit when you do go down. Not that it matters because a high level character literally has to take 400 damage to be one-shotted. What a game.

>how often do you guys subassemble your models? I'd like to try it once but it looks rather time consuming

If I don't need to do it I don't. If I have to I try to pin them from the side that attaches to the model, if it's too thin to pin I just glue it to a sprue stick. Shields usually get this treatment since gluing a shield to the model means you can't paint any of the model under it. Heads too if half the face is covered by armor or fur/cloth and attached after. One trick if you are subassembling and batch painting is to match-mark the parts to each model. For example, if you are painting mounted units and need to paint the riders and shields separate from the mount, use a marker to dot each part reletive to the mount mark, •, ••, •••, ect. Makes assembly go smoothly.

That's a fucking low blow that, probably one of the things they got right and did more of because there wasn't much of it back 20 years ago.

Their games are more and more for consoomer messes in their 30s and 40s. How is any kid playing 40k with their pocket money?

has there ever been some sort of giga-torrent for TT PDFs out there? I remember there being a place called the Trove or something which is gone now. At the time it was around 1TB iirc, but since RPG releases have swelled and there's so many now, I imagine that's no longer so viable. I'm just trying to figure out how to collect these since I love reading them and looking at the pretty pictures more than playing.

They dont magically thrive on insufficient breast milk. Please stop thinking you have a considered perspective because you’re cynical.
