Thoughts on this man?
>>97150745Don't like him.>He's a cunty eceleb narcissist.>He's a sellout, to WotC/Hasbro, which is immoral.>The shows based off their games are gay and annoying.>He's personally made the roleplaying scene vastly fucking worse by catering to the lowest common denominator.That about sums up my opinion of him. As you can see, I don't have a single positive opinion of him. The best thing I can say is that he's not evil. I wouldn't have a reason to attack him on sight, I guess.He's definitely an aggravating little cunt though.
>>97150745I like him but I wish his players weren't all retarded
He’s fun

Is Chaos wanking a problem in Warhammer?
>>97175431NTA. The other anon is right. Much as EoT amounted to nothing, even with Chaos winning. SoC would have amounted to nothing even if Chaos won.GW did not want to change the status quo and advance the setting in either fantasy and 40K. They were only forced to advance the setting in WF and 40K adecade later because of bad sales.
>>97175425>Two wrongs don't make a right.Two contradictory wrongs don't make for le chaoswank either.I never even implied anything like "two wrongs make a right". There is absolutely no way an honest reading of my post could come across as defending GW. I used words like "blueballed" "lame" to describe the "clumsy writing" of SoC's conclusion. You're twisting my words and intent because you want to feel victimised like me just like you want to feel victimised by the outcome of a campaign that happened literally decades ago. It's sad and pathetic to the point I feel real contempt towards you weird fucking losers.Chaos doesn't "win" in ToW's time period, Disorder doesn't "win" WFB until The End Times which has an outcome obviously driven by business decisions and as such is easily ignored by players and doesn't affect oldhammer of either game. Like I said "chaoswank" isn't real no matter how desperately you cringetards want to be oppressed. If it was, Chambers might have been greenlit to do some interesting stuff with the EoT results.
>>97175595>Like I said "chaoswank" isn't realThe End Times was chaoswank even if it was driven by business decisions. Chaos got wanked off hard to make it instawin. AoS is also full of it.I agree with you in general but I disagree that chaoswank doesn't exist. It does, just what's often pointed out as chaoswank (Storm of Chaos ending) isn't chaoswank.
>>97174178Modern GW has realized Chaos is an NPC faction and they exist as stage dressing just so the factions people actually like can win. This is particularly noticeable in 40k.

>>97175014Realize I forgot to say how they actually play.They are combined arms where the infantry does the shooting and the warjacks do the melee. They are supposed to be flexible with the use of the airdrops (though some of the airdrop need reworks, the scenario where you want to drop a raider instead of a blocker is very, very niche). The warcasters are expected to get involved in the fighting. They are more on the solving problems side vs presenting problems side.
>>97174347No, because as you said: They are cheap (and soft plastic), not hard plastic. If they were the same material, then operating those machines would be the same. Ever wondered why those army men are not available in your typical grey hard plastic all the "proper" mini companies use?

I think we should normalize naming characters in our tabletop games the way people name racehorses. Give me a character named Waterdeep Back Alley, they don't even have to be a rogue. Have a strike team of Urbanmechs led by a dude calling himself Strike Strike Strike issue a batchall. The Ordo Inquisitorus has Macro Cannon V investigating a chaos cult. I'm not even giving these weird ass names justice, just go full gonzo

>>97169667This, it's 6v6 unit alternating grid game that has players roll dice at the start of the round and choose the values to use when they activate their unit that turn. It's heavily inspired by a game called dobbel dungeon as well as a few old d6 tabletop systems I played a long time ago.Gen 1 is done and will probably be adjusted a bit before I make it public, some units need V4 art but if anyone has any suggestions for units for gen 2 onwards I'd greatly appreciate it!
>>97170467Looks a little bit like Mario vs Rabbits. Or X-Com.So it is a brawl game, more like chess but tabletop.
>>97173222More or less. A playtester referred to it as "chess but with abilities". I made a rough quick start rules to give an idea how things would operate before playing a round though.
>>97174720Nice a One-Page instruction.Interesting that you take a dice pool. I dont see how you generate dices. Or is the number of the dice on the card the number you get? Or is it for activating the unit?
>>97175697A warband would be made up of 6 units. Usually they each bring 1 die to the table each but some units that are more utility might bring 2. You'll add up all of the unit's dice together to determine your total pool. The usual dice pool total would be 6 since most units only bring 1 die but a unit that brings 2 would bump that total to 7.
Why is it that so many fantasy writers make their evil cults unjoinable by anyone with a functioning brain cell? Like why would you worship Orcus, whose goal is omnicide? Why would you worship Tzeentch if he’s probably gonna screw YOU over as part of his grand plan?What makes it so bizarre to me is that, firstly, it’s not like they need to be so off-putting to be evil. Orcus is a demon of undeath, his followers want to turn their enemies into the undead. Tzeentch wants the world to be in a constant cycle of chaos, his followers are gonna be masterminding world wars.Secondly, it’s not like we don’t have plenty of examples of real-world evil cults. A lot of cults in the West don’t follow Super-Duper-Mega-Murder Satan, but are fucked-up offshoots of Christianity. Historically, goetia was practiced by people who would’ve still called themselves Christians, while committing rituals to summon and get boons from demons. Plenty of human cultures used to sacrifice humans to their gods, not to summon them to kill everyone or some shit, but to honor and/or appease them.Like to use another example from Warhammer, I think Nurgle and Khorne present more “approachable” evil cults. Nurgle is toxic positivity, and his love will take all the pain away. Khorne is wrapped up in enough language about honor to lure people in.Like to rework an evil deity, let’s pick Lamashtu. Instead of “We love ugliness and miscarriages and also you get to die in childbirth”, the cult targets vulnerable young women and lures them in with divine feminine language (“You have the power to bear and raise great beasts”), while promising the young men of monstrous races frustrated living among humans that what they’re scorned for is what makes them powerful (and also they get to have sex with pretty girls).
>>97166682>promising sex slaves and lootIn all fairness, they also delivered
>>97173598at least for the ones that proved at least somewhat useful, the others got the "honor" of blowing themselves up
>>97172390>1e
>>97166134Nurgle is probably the most successful because unlike the other gods he has evangelists instead of just temptations or predilections. And he offers something a huge number of people would genuinely want: no more pain, no more suffering. The rotting and disease and such only happen once the cultist stops being human. So the cultists themselves are mostly normal people during their day to day life, and might even look happier than normal. Tzeentch cultists look like were on heroin, Slaanesh cultists currently are on heroin, and Khorne cultists look like they need heroin to deal with the pain they're in.Nurgle for me dawg
>>97164833What weirds me out is that girls actually went there to be sex slaves. Like Shamina Begum went there with her friends to be fucked by ISIS fighters. I don't even know what she got out of it.

>>97173470They're basically the androids from Blade Runner but much more dangerous, with built in weapons and super strength. Them snapping and going on violent rampages to rebel against their human owners is what inspired Cyberpsychosis in the lore.
Not exactly a gun person so can someone explain why .45 is low power? It does 2d6+2 while 10mm which is supposed to be high power does 2d6+3
Is it already dead?
>>97175549The core concept is to sell product (and it sold pretty well), not if anyone played it. Especially not the grifters making money out of it
>>97175777Probably some variation of "Let's make hay while the sun shines".This game sold its entire print in a week, and thice as many pdf. Pure profit>b-but nobody plays it!Yes, and? How is that making the grifters any less rich and idiots any less gullible?I don't know what you find funny in this at all.
>>97175920>I don't know what you find funny in this at all.It's funny to see people I don't like get duped and make pathetic attempts to pretend they don't care that they were duped.
>>97175905>Take massive risk on starting your new game project>One to which you would have to commit>And risk loosing easy sponsorshipvs.>Make easy money on your own fan base>You don't have to commit to anything at all>Sponsorship money is still flowingI don't even consider this a choice, to be frank. It's a pure no-brainer. And it would be crazy if they tried to turn their 5 minutes of fame into anything else than a quick, guaranteed pay-off, rather than some pipe dream idea of dethroning DnD.They live off DnD, you moron.
>>97175924So you know someone who actually bought this game?See, because that's the funny part for me - this obvious grift sold out within 6 days, supposedly making fuckload of money... but nobody ever met anyone who bought it. And I'm willing to think this is a self-made grift, where the goal wasn't to reach sales, but to artificially boost your own image as best-selling creator. Buying 10k books of your own is a known grift scheme, Daniel patented it for TTRPG with his WFRP 2e clone, so there is a solid chance this game was bought by the CR people themselves, then net them back 1/3 of the money spend, but being flagged out as "best-seller"

Haven't been about in a wee while, is the guy who was posted that chainsaw deck still about? Did you settle on a list you were happy with? Was thinking about trying it out.
>>97174032Not parasitic af as other anon said but most magic sets nowadays are designed as yugioh sets: make 2 -3 archetypes and fill the set with cards meant to play together with almost 0 replay value for older cards.Exemple:spooderman spider tribal thing>But magic has spiders!yeah, and the cards in the spiderman set will be played with other spiderman cards 90% of times.(let me not start on heroes and villains)other exemple, and what I think anon was referring, is firebending being forced and receiving most of its support from the same set (but to be honest some cards do have some synergy with nu-tarkir cards)other is the new lesson cards. They work in the deck made with avatar cards but other than that not that much.What I m saying is that there is less incentive for inter-set play and synergy than in other years. Most new mechanics are obviously things that don't "talk" well with other things in the same standard so most support and things that make the thing work come from the same set as them.Compare those mechanics to Ikoria for exemple: most cycling matter cards didn't call for cycling but for discarding cards, mutate was really versatile and people could splash for mutate creature in most decks despite the intention of the ability (aka make big creatures bigger and better)(for most of time players used them on mana dorks and utility creatures).
>>97175553you guys don't know what parasitic meansthe two mechanics in spider-man (mayhem and webslinging) are both extremely generic and broadly usable mechanics. I have no doubt they were just mechanics sitting on the shelf, waiting for a rush-job to come along.firebending is not "forced" it's literally just conditional mana dorks. Firebending could only possibly be parasitic if it made special avatar mana that could only be spent on avatar cards. There's is nothing even remotely parasitic about "whenever you attack, add red mana."Energy is a parasitic mechanic. Snow is a parasitic mechanic.
>>97175553You're forgetting googly eyes tripping up Take Backsies Manfield against Sultai reanimator due to Caverns of Souls.
>>97175553IN WHAT FUCKING WORLD IS "MAKE RED MANA" NOT GOING TO BE AVAILABLE FOR INTER-SET PLAYDO YOU THINK THAT RED IS NOT GOING TO GET MORE INSTANTS EVER AGAIN OR SOMETHING

>>97175470I would say yes. As with every army you can gimp yourself into losing, but vampire generals are the best naked generals in the game.
>>97175231Wait are you in Australia? I saw that lot and winced at the amount of missing arms - i do have an stl for them though.As for filler some flamers(ideally the opposite vintage to what your use as flamers) would look great. The aos endless spells would also be fantastic. Or some horror sized fires?
>>97175231Swirling pillar of fire with screaming faces in it. Sculpt it with plastic head bits and GS, then paint it like blue fire
>>97175741Nta but I've got 10 of the old metal ones and it would be a miracle If anyone still had them that weren't missing arms. Those arms fall off very easily, and they're incredibly small and easy to lose

>>97169925The pupil response is consensual in a healthy normal individual. Your pupils constrict in bright light and dilate in darkness. This would be unaffected by wearing an eyepatch. However, the dark adaptation of the eyes can differ and it's pretty trivial to check that this does in fact work. Keep one eye covered for 5 minutes or so and then assess how you see with each eye in darkness.
