>>97186489Yes, the weird thing is that this seems to have been accidental.Holden planned another exalted type (A.K.A. Revelers) to be the marauders-like group.
>>97186540i checked them from the demake files, i didn't like them
>>97180991I like picrel, how would you handle a redemption arc for her? Also, now that all the Charms are out, what are the pros and cons of 2e Infernals versus 3e Infernals, narratively and/or mechanically?
>>97186555I also didn't get a good feel from them, I don't think Holden synthesized the themes well.

Why is Age of Sigmar so universally despised? I thinkthose rat dudes look rad, wish we had them in 40k
>>97184397I thought it was handled pretty well. Only thing I didn't like was taking away the ambiguity of who or what exactly hashut was, but they introduced a little bit of new ambiguity into the mix to counter that so eh.
>>97163328more wondering what chapter those marines are.
now I kinda wish they could have kept updating Realms of Ruin but well... It's been a year and nothin'.

Dedicated Drizzt Do'Urden EditionDiscuss and post elves. Elf lore, gameplay, and art are all appreciated.QOTT: What drove you to elves specifically?
>>97185593The fauna elements I've tried to incorporate to some of the designs have tended to go after avian features. Biotech isn't exclusive to the elf dudes, as the setting is in general very infused with biotechnology, the elf faction just generally has the most advanced forms of it. My main aim atm is just figuring out an unifying design language for the entire faction rather than just their symbiotic warsuits.
>>97185624Yeah okay, if it's in general a biotech setting, then pick two or three elements and stay consistent. Plant + avian elements sounds cool, and before muddling this up, focus on that.You could look up certain fashion, architectural styles or art style.Like expressionism elves. + Biotech. Or take inspiration from south-east asian art. Whatever could go well with botanical elements.
>>97185685Yeah, gonna try to focus the aesthetic language around a few core elements to keep it consistent. Avian features are nice in that they allow me to ad both claws and scales along with softer features in the form of feathers and fluff etc.
>97185522>until you hear of my magical realmGameless realm. No (you)
>>97163325I am an Elf.

Why was XP for gold largely abandoned as a way to reward players?
>>97184910ntayrt That anon was just outlining the shift in gameplay styles. Its gone further than that really at this point. >90s storyteller system response to hickman style railroads >wotc dnd response to recapture nerds in combat 5 room dungeon stories >indi games attempts at changing the game to be about narrative control instead of single gm direction >other indi games doing osr return to xpforgold>osr popularity hitting saturation point, enough imitations moving away from xpforgold again The specific brand Dragonlance might not be well known by now but its part of the changes over time that are interesting to look at.
>>97185319>"uuhm... it's down there inside the quiver, let me take another look"
>>97161391my level 1 Tiefling paladin has no interest in being some loot goblin venturing into 15 room megadungeons, he was the son of a god who was cast out to the forgotten realms as an exile and has the power to control the elements with his left hand. it's entirely beneath him. (the DM should have properly integrated by 20 page backstory into his campaign)

Does your character treat figures of authority with deference or are they a cheeky bugger?
If they respond well to the latter then it will become the former
>puckee thread
>>97183368Polite deference as default.Authority figures are rarely significant features in a game, so far as their nature as an authority goes.As such, the fastest way to get through the scene without rushing and spoiling it, is to be politely deferential in RP, so the GM can expound their bit, info can be gleaned, and the party can move on. This means we can get 1-2 more things done this session, and more of the session is spent doing cooler things than listening to a player stage act about their PC doing something irrelevant and inhibitory to the game, for twenty minutes, that did not need to happen and offered no benefit, insight, or enjoyment to anyone at the table bar one player.Characters that are 'cheeky buggers' to any and all authority figures are red flags, and I'm tired of pretending they're not.
Garbage pucktard! Kill yourself, you gameless psycho! No body likes you or your trashy soulless commissions.>>97184028holy fuck.

>>97182726I unitonically run my cyberknights that way & it's a LOT more fun. They try to pass themselves off as do-gooders, but frequently end up just stealing supplies & resources from those they save.
>>97180884Numbers wise they are a power house in melee once they're like level 6, before then it's just abusing the fact they can run and shoot from what I can see.>>97181121GM has customized a region of the south east US.
Is this just a reprint of the old Manhunters book with a new cover and title, or does it have new rules/psionics/updates like some of the other Revised books?

>>97186417How did Ord manage to survive between Khador and Cygnar while Llael did not?
>>97186436I know they have a strong navy, and Khador would be too open to a counter-attack from sea, so they chose not to mess with Ord.
>>97186376Speak for all your selves, Schizo

>>97186480I know, just didn't expect it from this set.
>>97186389Calmaramon isn't, she just doesn't get to digivolve from Tamers like normal. And it isn't like Aqua gets any particular value out of digivolving from a Tamer.

>>97185866>with funding and sampling from Glass Walkers at thatWeren't the progenitors the ones sharing tech and stuff with them? Also>Instead we get Galaxy-brain IQ R&D Hunters individually making their own super anti-vampire Agent OrangeIt's even funnier when you realise that it was developed by the SoL. You have a faction with access to faith powers and sorcery and they make them into experts in chemical warfare. I mean, I expect them to have some research going on but making anti-vampire nerve gas is a bit of a stretch.
>>97185866>>97186514It was Glasswalkers infiltrated and took over a Progenitor front because of what they were looking into. Both sides were amenable to working together, just no woof death is all.
>>97186450Yes that would be the joke. Plus I don't know if there's anything else thats a well known relic of the American State
>>97186490Just take a look at the Demon Translation Guide and you can translate them into WoD, they are just a lot weaker then most other splats because they lack additional actions.
>>97186529White suits won't be happy with this one.
Are there any mech games where the mechs are a sideshow to other vehicles? I like the idea of blowing up mechs with superior conventional vehicles but basically every mech setting ever made exists to justify the opposite of that happening.
>>97183103The tank heavy faction is indeed very tank heavy. I've never played with or against them (Paxton Legs Company for life!), but they sure are there.
>>97181850Firelock 198X, albeit it's one faction that has mechs. They're basically android elves made from early 90s Cold War Tech.

relevant for the chess peoplehttps://youtube.com/shorts/sdlqAKtozkw
>>97181824Sweet summer child not only are none of those pursuits of any value to humanity whatsoever, in actual fact they are the biggest threats in the world and one of only a few things that could wipe out humanity entirely. Not to mention the billions of dollars/euro waste and environmental impact of such research. I don't know about geopolitical strategist. Furthermore, as has been pointed out many times including by Hikaru himself, elite chess players don't have exceptional intelligence and their talent is also centered around one thing. Essentially, their brains have been wired a particular way since birth and just because they are really good at one thing doesn't mean they would be much good at another. As an example of this take the phenomenon of HSAM - highly superior autobiographical memory. Sort of the autobiographical memory equivalent of chess elites, these people remember every single day of their lives. Yet they are not exceptionally gifted in any other intellectual way. People are good at different things, creative in different ways, intelligent in different ways. Even chimps can outperform humans at some memory tests. So where does this leave people who insist on a strict hierarchy of intelligence, all defined by IQ test numbers? It leaves them nowhere, because that's all bullshit and all a fantasy. It originates in a classist society where some families would become doctors/lawyers etc. and then other families would become tradies and the white collars would look down on the tradies and have a better life than them. For sure some people are better suited to different trades but the hierachy and idea of singular intelligence defined by iq is nonsense.
>>97178395>Chess requires a high degree of visual-spatial reasoningIt's basically a simon says where you just remember 30 moves to play in a row. Why are chessfags such pseuds?
Gee, thanks coach.
