Thoughts on the BP Epic Waterloo stuff? I had never payed much mind to it because Waterloo is not a campaign that I'm that interested, but a bunch of guys at the club have been playing it and I found a couple of second hand starter sets for very cheap. I'm seriously tempted to get the Prussian starter and join them. They also play with the ACW stuff.

Btw the new captcha is fucking stupid.

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.

Pretty much opinion exactly. It was pretty funny though how fast the excitement over 8th (oh thank god, 7th is dead at last!) turned to disappointment as it rapidly turned into its own form of debacle.

I remembering 1000pts of Eldar tabling 3000 pts of nids. I remember Eldar tabling Orks turn 1, fellow took out 100s of models, and didn't play a single one. We had a statewide tourney and the top 25 were all Eldar.

There's an 8th Edition?! I stopped following the sales driven Churn in the 90s, have done my own thing and am I'm still enjoying playing 3rd-4th edition even today. Lets hope GW doesnt keep shitting out even more editions every couple of years, right? Imagine how sad you would have to be to just keep buying countless even shittier rules books just because the game company says you have to, to continue to play the game you already own and enjoy, right? LOL.
>>
>>97214830
It's crazy how long Eldar dominated the game so much so that GW's serious attempt at balancing marines was to just make them chunkdar. 9/10 if an Eldar player asked you for a game beforehand you were better off going to the hobby table/home instead of wasting your time putting down models you'd be picking up turn 1-2.

/TG/ DEVELOPED A GAME
IT IS PLAYABLE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
EXPEDITION is a ~1880s era, Jules Verne-inspired retro-futurist, underground blood soaked adventurescape.
It is a Skirmish wargame. Two players with their own expeditions, on a hexgrid map, explore & fight each other for victory and profit.

3 versions of the rules exist, 2 of which have been playtested. The main one is 2e, to be found :

The newly established Mughal government in Delhi is trying to focus on achieving unity across the empire. After Bahadur Shah II died in 1862, his son Mirza Mughal was crowned as Akbar III. Greatly influenced by lemurian mysticism, he is planning to continue the project of his ancestor Akbar I, the “Din-I Ilahi” philosophy of unity and harmony between the different faiths of the subcontinent, now intertwined with lemurian mysticism. The difficulty of lemurian mystics and lords is difficult to quantify, though many within the top ranks of his administration are of lemurian origin. This is worrying many non-lemurian lords and nobles, as the tendency to blindly follow prophecy makes them passive followers of fate in their eyes.
>>
We could probably tie this lore a bit more with the lemurian one. Any suggestions how?
>>

Also, for the option of a neomughal book, here are some tokens and units I've made. I do need to add more lemurian-related stuff, so any ideas would be appreciated.

Dragon's Dogma AD&D but with monster hunter controls.
Dungeon Meshi AD&D but with cooking.
So maybe add more than just basic D&D. Classic AD&D is a great base for your fantasy world/setting/game etc. Just add more to it other some power fantasy BS. Hell people love the basic setting, so if you changing stuff from it. Don't make it worse, look at Woke DND settings and games. Sure you have activists and tourist defend it, but they won't play or buy the games now. Hell will be honest, sometimes not changing much can be a good thing too. Since everyone want to change it so it feel unique and not like D&D they make it worse, and shocker people like the D&D feel. Maybe sometimes just go with it.

For me is forceful genderbending spells that can't be undone.

Intersex people are intersex. It's in the term. Still not a third sex, just a mutation. To even consider it a third sex, intersex would have to have reproductive capabilities that differed from the two sexes, such as functional testes and functional ovaries at the same time.

Hey /tg/ here's the origins and explanation of the xenomorph and its setting.

-Explains the Weyland Yutani world and offers a bonus animated story
-Explains various features of the xenomorph such as how it actually sees without eyes
-Explains HR Giger and Dan O Bannon's original inspirations for the xenomorph
-Explains logically how the xenomorph is closer to the truth and is a combo of 2 civilizations.
-Provides 3 entire civilizations for the xenomorph
-Shows images of what the real xenomorph homeworld looks like and its bestiary
-Links to 1 extra bonus document explaining the Space Jockey's world.
-Great music fitting the atmosphere of the setting throughout the document.
-Great artwork along with the explanations.

Enjoy. May you use this setting and explanations in your own games well.

I personally really like the other gimmicks the miners bring to the table to want to totally remove them as a unit, but something like for every unit of miners you can pay 1ppm for another unit to follow them down the tunnel and arrive at the same time/place would be cool. Similar to the skaven drill weapons team.

>>97216968
Pretty much this. It's a free upgrade to shield and choppa boys that gives you more flexibility. In a worst case scenario it's lobbing out a few arrows a turn and you can stand and shoot, while if you get an early objective you can just volley fire into chaff units or blocks of infantry while retaining board control.

There is in fact +1WS/BS as a cybertheurgy, which is very easy to throw on them because they have a 2+ save and as such don't give a damn about feedback.
A decent squad of buffed-up Domitars essentially project a 12" infantry exclusion zone with all that D2 firepower, only EW or W3 termies can really push into it. The only major downsides for them are that they go in fairly exclusive slots, are quite vulnerable to anti-tank guns and can't score well with an embedded Magos since they're Vanguard, but they do actually have a good chance of scoring Vanguard with their guns.

They can't go in transports, since they're Cybernetica and don't have the rule the Scyllax and Echidnax have that lets you fold them up and put them in vehicles. They're also just huge models, it would be a little silly if they could fit in anything but specialist transports.

>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.

Not really when the shovel is more expensive than the basic melee weapons and you can't mix it with a shield since shields always take up 1 hand thus not allowing you to make a 2-handed melee attack with the shovel.

That's fantastic anon, I don't personally have a reason printer so my stuff is all a combination of my buddy's, ebay pickups, and the only-games order that just came in. Only an issue with one set (heretic troopers) but a print defect of missing a whole ass leg and a full trooper missing is unacceptable
