>>97182896yeah definitely, but i was moreso talking core infantry options.
>>97182951Black orcs are core if you take a black orc boss
>>97183009yeah i know, i plan to get black orcs, just wondered if i had enough normal orcs for a 2000pt army.
I dont want to assemble a branchwych again. That is all.
I really should start collecting a 5th edition all metal dwarf army.

>>97182499Rpg stories are the height of "you had to be there." It's up there with in-jokes and dreams. Just don't.

Start by the ending and tell the details as they inevitably askLike begining a joke from the punchline
>>97182499You don't; you get better at reading what interests and disinterest others. Please don't waste my time with anecdotes of your make-believe with people I don't know.It's the male equivalent of women telling you at length about their dreams, and the obnoxious nerd equivalent of>duuude, you know Ryan's parents were out the whole weekend and he threw a mad kegger and dude Josh he did this sick move and kinda twisted his ankle and like we all got so fucking wasted lmaoooo
Previously: https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/96936967/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.
It is a magical girl monster taming setting, basically Cardcaptor Sakura meets Pokemon.
Everything and everyone in the setting is a human male fighter.
Female dwarves don spiked helmets and headbutt their enemies in the nuts. No, they ain't got beards.
>>97183027>Everything and everyone in the setting is a human male fighter.There are bigger human white male fighters the human white male fighters ride into combat.
In this setting, there are no white people nor white-coded characters whatsoever.

Tips for a first time DM DMing for first time players? I've played a bunch but i'm nervous that something will stall or they won't get into RP because of something etc. They're excited to play and willing to RP but obviously there's some barriers there
>>97182919Lean in on roleplaying NPCs, that should encourage them to similarly loosen up.
>>97182901>This is the main sticking point. You can't really have functional trade if anyone who goes to the city is hunted down for leaving.ah sorry should have clarified on that, the traders and travelers can come and go so long as they observe all the rules the dragon would have conjured up to run this literally and metaphorically gilded city, people the dragon specifically abducted would not be permitted to leave.I would want to have the dragon be an open ruler, again to its vanity 'yes this is my city, the city of a dragon, fuck around and find out'. But making the cult a driving factor in the operation of the city is a grand idea.
>years before I ever tried D&D a mate told me about some play-by-post forum game where the GM lifted a big plot twist straight from Deltora Quest which said mate clocked at the earliest opportunity and was a little mad about>1.5 years into a game of D&D I'm running and he's playing in I'm setting up the next arc whose general story I am lifting straight from Deltora Quest including that same plot twist>some foreshadowing has been present since the start of this campaignCan't wait for the other shoe to drop.
>day before session>sit down to prep things I know will be useful>come up with a bunch of new ideas and work on them insteadEvery session. At least the games are consistently fun.
The full doc is here (character limit) : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1a2jOdevMru4qTWOGlOBkTlHQIi3OqSP76OzcLeuGPJ0/edit?usp=sharingI'm working on a setting for a game, by which I mean I've been shitposting about it with my friend, but I've come up with enough ideas that I actually want to run it now. Help me brainstorm if you want. To be clear I'm not intending to make this a "tg setting", it's just for my own personal game, but feel free to steal any ideas you want for your own thing if you wish, you could even make your own thread. Nothing in the setting has to make sense. The only thing I care about it is that it's whimsical and / or provides the players with fun stuff to interact with. I want to focus on physical, player-facing features. History, deities (if any), religion, and the like are not important at this time. Because of the rule system I'm using, no magic system is required, that's already taken care of. Here's what I have so far.By the way, don't worry about your ideas being good or bad, and please be positive about other people's ideas. If I feel something doesn't fit, I just won't use it.Besides locations and creatures, please feel free to suggest events, adventures, and characters. All characters in the world are talking animals.General idea : basically sword and sorcery but it's like a children's book and takes place in a holiday / dessert / candy-themed world. Pretty much an episode of adventure time.All fauna and terrain is made of some kind of food. All water features (rivers, lakes, etc.) are filled with milk instead of water, and milk has the inherent magical property of being permanently self-chilling, and it is always clean and safe to drink.Important rule : All sapient animals are "normal" (except that they talk and wear clothes). All non-sapient animals are made of food.
>>97176564Mallowmarsh doesn't have to be an exception if you use condensed milk caramel (or dulce de leche as you might know it).What system are you going to be using?
>>97177117sprinkles are crystals in this universe that form in chocolate caves. Some candy fauna/monster eat them to get covered in sprinkles themselves and gain new strange abilites.
Was thinking giant stickbug/manties that blending into a dark waffle tree forest would be terrifying.
Thanks again, I have implemented several of your ideas
>>97176558The document is just 1 page that's just your post.I'm not seeing any mechanics, only themes.Here: have some actual literal game mechanics in a digital medium:https://bee-swarm-simulator.fandom.com/wiki/Bee_Swarm_Simulator_WikiI think if you combine candy bees/candy Pokemon with your sword and sorcery then you'll get something decent.Also if you were a knowledgeable millennial, gen-Xer or baby boomer then you'd reference Willy Wonka at least once. Or if you were a knowledgeable gen-Zer with multiple media under your belt you'd reference Wreck It Ralph/Candy Rush at least once.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayjNuVCstQ8Here's a very very "nice" idea which none of these cheapskate candyland rip-offs ever have the jawbreakers inside their pants to suggest...Candy cannibalism mechanics. And I don't mean just as a joke with ooohhh you're soo delicious, no no I mean full on leeching vampirisim I have to eat my own friend to survive level of neediness or eat my own candy leg. I literally have to drink your strawberry blood to survive. It's like sex, it feels so good but it's ... actually far more frowned upon than sex, I mean humans don't usually eat one another after copulation, only insects and a few arachnids do that.Comment too long.

Why is Age of Sigmar so universally despised? I thinkthose rat dudes look rad, wish we had them in 40k
>>97182386Not him but WFB was already doing all that gay feminist redditor shit before AoS came along.>muh religin bad>muh wymyn gud>muh men dum dum>muh oppressive ebul capitali- i mean nobles
>>97182711I mean yeah, thats kinda what I was saying. I dunno, media in general after 2016 just got really fucking gay in reaction to trump being president sadly, at least video games, everything else was probably a reaction of the reaction.
>>97182614>explaining why locations matter to their faction’s overall strategyNone of the locations in AoS have any thought or care behind them whatsoever. You cannot do cartography or geography of this absolute nothing the "game" takes place in because there is no relation to anything else, there is no distance or space between places, it's all just made up "realm" nonsense with no physical limitations involved. 40k has planets and solar systems, WFB has states and kingdoms and empires and continents, AoS is just hand-waved fucking meaningless nothing. Anyone who cares about it as a setting is a retard. "How do the Slayer dorfs get to the Nagash realm? Who knows, who fucking cares, buy more plastic, tranny." That's what GW is saying to you when you buy in to AoS.
>>97182756Well yeah, that’s the problem I’m trying to address. Things are harder to define, so it’s harder to care. AoS should work on that to be a better setting.
>>97181367It's funny how "bloat needing to be cut out but changed entire game instead" led to flops twice for GW. Though they decided to power through it with AoS instead of letting it die like Epic 40,000.
Why do DMs love putting paladins into 'you must fall' scenarios?
>>97180635OOTS is to blame. I will not elaborate.
>>97180635It the cliche. Just like barbarians go berserk, or wizards go insane etc.
>>97180635Because most DMs don't understand morality and they can get a 'win' without killing character. It's seen as acceptable because they didn't make you fall, you did it yourself. It's a form of bullshit they can get away with.
>>97181260>now>not actual decades
>>97180635Sometimes it's the DM's way to make sure the player plays the Lawful Good character correctly, sometimes it's to make a good story (faith should be tested, redemption arc,rebirth, etc), or sometimes it's because the DM is a cunt.

>>97181134Same as with Ranged.
>>97181134>DodgingThis might have been changed, but last i recall, the Eva roll needs to beat the Acc roll.
>>97178455Here's a version from me:>6 BAPs with rifles and bayonets>1 Sergeant with rifle and bayonet>1 Modern Major General>2 Auxes with Spears and Ancestral WeaponThe gimmick is to make a firing line. The general lets you be fancy if you want but the main gimmick remains.
>>97181179In the rules book there are two versions of dodging:- If the Evasion roll equals or beats the Accuracy roll, the Attack fails-This action may be taken outside of a model’s Activation if he still has the AP to pay for it. During an Attack in which this model is the target, a successful (didn’t roll over the target number) Defense roll result equal or higher than the Attack roll means the Attack failed completely. A Critical result cancels the attack and lowers your Dread by 1.Also, I think I've missed thr "critical evasion lowers the dread" part every game.>>97181159So the units under the influence of smoke get +1 evasion and -1 accuracy?
Also, here's one for climbing. Can climbing units move beyond walls composed of 2 or more wall hexes?

>>97181277and even then instinct could be wrong from time to time. given the nature of the internet (and even more so this site) it's practically impossible to be sure.
How about we post our requests and let the artists decide if they find it interesting enough to draw? The rest of us beggars can STFU in the meantime.
>>97181623Nah, I think I'd like to keep talking about which requests are good (mine) and which are objectively shit and awful (everyone else's) for another 20 or so posts till we start to autosage

She also has Angelical wings and deep blue eyes. Her weapon of choice now is a typical Sword and Board style.
Post franchises you think should be or should have gotten tabletop RPGs or war games.Considering how wild the 90's was, I'm legitimately surprised this of all things didn't get one, frankly.
>>97180843>This one actually hurts a litteSurely not as much as U8 and U9 hurt people.
does elder scrolls not have a successful tabletop? even fallout has whatever it has rolling around at the bottom of the barrel
>>97182813Closest thing I think was a 5E adventure that was literally plagiarized from another 5E adventure?
>>97182125If they put people who would know what they were doing on it it would probably be a net loss and if they farmed it out to someone it'd be too big a liability. It's a lose/lose for them.
>>97174958Myth Adventures had a boardgame by Mayfair along with Xanth but never had a tabletop RPG, despite the books using Phil Foglio for cover art and Phil doing a comic based on the novels in the early 80s.Dimension-hopping comedy fantasy seems very much like something late 80s RPG companies would try to make work.

>>97175174The triangle trade was Africans selling other Africans to Jews though. It's still the same semitic slave ethics of the Ottomans
>>97173633>it’s that abortion is common. I ultimately agree with you that abortion should be legal and available, but the sheer ubiquity of it now is despairing.Ubiquity?!See those scale models of barely mobile human polywags in my first post?!That's a six week fetus, fetal heartbeat detectable, so you can't abort it in my state and at least a half a dozen others!And six weeks is JUST about when a woman might start worrying that her period is late, AKA when she'll first suspect she's even pregnant.But these fucked up "Fetal Heartbeat" do FAR more damage than just slut shaming reckless teenagers, they also sabotage a lot of prenatal healthcare because at this point, there's at least a 1/3 chance of the pregnancy failing naturally, and that's without complications that may endanger the life of the "mother"!George Carlin said it best:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpFYpoIwQec"They're not Pro-life, you know what they are?""Anti-woman!"
Although the Ottomans engaged in many civilian massacres, especially against Greeks (such as the infamous Chios massacre) and Serbians, they paled in comparison to the OG evil empire, the Hapsburgs. Pic related. The Hapsburg armies burned people inside churches and leveled entire cities. The Hapsburg empire killed more Serbian civilians and prisoners than the Ottomans in their entire history. The Ottomans killed and enslaved mainly in war time as collective punishment. But for the Hapsburg's it was every day all day.

>>97182909A lot of exalted anons are in the closet or the egg even though they're playing the gayest gameline to ever fag.Also infernal 3e lore is pretty great. Less edgy and they have more about its past and various locations. I really enjoy the civil war it had when they were all cast into Hell and I enjoy the sky politics. On the sad side they're not as edgy or transhumanist(or weird if you'd prefer) as the 2e versions, but still. Pretty great.

So what are the chance of we getting the level 7 and any other cards (level 5, tamers or emblems) with different arts in a future bandai premium stuff like the liberator box?
>>97182768>What reprints are you hoping to see in AD01?There are some promos I'd like to see reprinted but the announcements have made no mention of promo reprints so I'm not expecting any.So aside from obvious stuff like expensive SECs and Protoform that's already been confirmed, I guess the main thing I want is EX6 Lucemon Chaos Mode.
>>97182768>What reprints are you hoping to see in AD01?ANYTHING worth over $10.
