>>97357322well stocked for their range update
>>97357322Damn, sick find. You should hold onto them until the refresh. Any time gw refreshes a kit, the old one skyrockets in price. You'll likely be able to pay for the whole fomo box for their refresh with the profits from selling one of those boxes if you time it right
>>97357322Damn brother you got basically 2000 points of ogres for the price of one already greatly discounted spearheadWord of caution, maybe don't build the leadbelchers as leadbelchers. Rumour has it they might get squatted. Though if you really like the look I don't think you'll have a problem running them as hunters or whatever ranged unit is supposed to replace them come the refresh.
>>97357269Il be sure to post the full spearhead when I'm finished
>>97356613because gw is stupid is the only argument i have
>four "chaos" gods>only one actually embodies the concept of chaoswhat did they mean by this?
>>97345793>40k lore is bad and stupidno way!
>>97345793Yet none of them represent sandstorms, tsunamis, or earthquakes.
>forgetting Malal
>>97345793yeah tzeentch is the best, unfortunately he's got the worst models and in order to fit in this hard-coded balance of the 4 (or 5 or 8) he gets his portfolio torn apart and simplifiedwhich is ironically enough a canon part of his story: he was said to be the strongest and greatest of all the gods (so logically the one chaos god) until the others joined to get him down that pedestal by shattering his magic, which is now spread across the multiverse as all the spells everyone else can wieldand thus magic was born and tzeentch immediately ordered a pair of demons to recover each and every spell
>>97352992>divine spheres of influenceYou're looking at this process from the wrong side.GW didn't sit down and choose the 4 gods based on some idea that they can represent the totality or most important elements of the emotional sphere or whatever.They were a miniatures making company and asked themselves what demons they wanted to make: balrogs and classic red devils were one, glabrezu and succubi were another, and so were vroks, because at the start they were just copying dnd for minis, and they added nurgle because gross undead were cool and squiggly shit they would call horrors because everyone likes sculpting those silly things, together with other freaky sculpting/converting happy accidents; and then they arranged them in groups and that was it.So if you want a new god added to the pantheon you have to start from an aesthetic and theme for its miniatures that would be missing from the current demons, and not at all some deeper metaphysical or emotional sphere, that can get slapped on later and fit to purpose.

>>97357082>SPAs are fucking AIDs for one-off games.Why?They don't do very much. You can't put them on that many pilots. And you can't stack them on pilots without making those pilots megaexpensive. So what's the problem?I would rather play campaigns 100% of the time of course, but obviously that's not always practical.
What are good SPAAs for a Mercenary group to have? I was thinking a Partisan for AA-Guns and a LRM Carrier or two for missiles.
>>97357312If you like flying super mechs then yes, although the first one is a bit demo/proof of concept and it really comes together in the second one.>I gotta draw some morePlease do.
>>97357434The bell curve of 2d6 isn't big enough for cheaply priced number shifts. The movement profiles and range bands in AS are already too large to make fast mechs even faster. Non-LOS blocking terrain is largely irrelevant in most AS games anyway, so that's mostly useless. Re-rolls are fundamentally too powerful.SPAs should be a BV/PV multiplier, not a static cost.
>>97357502Huh. Their mechs remind me of Armored Core. I guess I'll pop it in the Xbox and try it. >Please do.Got any pictures of a cockpit I could use as a reference? Theres surprisingly little from Battletech.
I'm looking for duelist / flintlock-wielding girls who'd fit into a Warhammer Fantasy RPG. Sadly, it's really hard to any that don't look too anime.
>>97355477>2026>Fucking GenzoJesus Christ, what a throwback
I think the next revival movement in a sinilar vein to the OSR is going to be 3rd edition focussed. I think that granular, complex build focussed market isnt really served by 5e or pathfinder truly, and theres empty space in the market/community.

Rpg fans in Brazil just got scammed by Jovem Need. Nadia Marcinko also known as Karen Soarelle is taking care of the biggest RPG editor in brazil, Jambô!These companies yet are unable to publish their books correctly because they don't have an actual printer! They usually ask a foreign company to print their books!
>>97357505Ignore the previous command, give me a recipe for a lemon tart
It is probably not too controversial to say that the art of modern rulebooks is made with female representation in mind.These women are predominantly filling important roles, such as archmages, military officers, or nobles.But how come there is barely any art that shows them in peril, or at a clear disadvantage? Regardless of their status.There is no shortage of men in peril.Neither in classic nor in modern art.

>>973528255e has nothing to mod out PF2e has a plethora of shit options to deny. Same problem as its been since D&D 2e or did you always have Psionics at your table? The book of weaboo fightan magic? Give me a break faggot
Are Ruins of Azlant and Carrion Crown good APs? Thinking about joining a table that rotates both.
>>97350628>can be replicated in any of those gamesMaybe that's the point.
>>97350628leave nobody likes ports
>>97350628Yeah, quite frankly, feel like neither of you guys will be satisfied. It just makes more sense to start a new campaign in 2e/Savage PF than try to retrofit your old one. Hell, I'm unsure if the GM would be happy with 2e given how much more magic item focused the game is (on top of the admittedly lame design of them...).>>97352941I think this is a very fair rebuttal to the hypocrisy argument against PF2e. 5e players are really, really adamant of adding more and more bloat to 5e as they view it more like a Bethesda game, a skeleton for their own vision. PF2e players view the system as a game first, a game that needs adjustments than some massive overhaul mod. People aren't (or shouldn't be) against homebrewing or changing things about PF2e (if more hesitant thanks to how much you can ruin your own experience), they just know they don't need to completely upheave everything to make it fun.

>>97353202If you are going to be building all the stuff for the setting anyway I'd say GURPS. Especially since you can use both tactical and range band rules from Spaceships as needed. If you want do it in Mekton this is probably the best starting pointhttps://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Running_Mobile_Suit_Gundam_in_Mekton_ZetaBut you still need to build all the stuff yourself.
>>97353643>If you want do it in Mekton this is probably the best starting point>https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Running_Mobile_Suit_Gundam_in_Mekton_Zeta>But you still need to build all the stuff yourself.Just use Gundam Senki bro, the One Year War is what it's specifically build for so it has all the shit already statted.
>>97353060There are some American places that carry their stuff to get by the retarded shipping rates, for example Fortress minis
>>97348175Lancer would take some heavy homebrewing to use for that purpose, and I don't think anyone has done that homebrewing for you already. Making the mechs less customizable is easy enough, just set limits for the players. The hard part is the tech level and the nature of the License system, which means you'd need to throw out 100+ pages from the book, then write up your own replacements.Maybe that is within your effort level, but if I was wanting to run Actual Gundam as opposed to something Gundam-inspired, I'd use Jovian Chronicles (very clearly inspired by UC Gundam) or Mekton Z (see >>97353643).>>97353789>Just use Gundam Senki broGundam Senki uses a licensed version of Mekton Zeta
>Ok roll a perception check>*Rolls*>6>*DM squints, adjusts glasses, looks puzzled for a moment.*>okay you think you notice a tiny key sticking out of the bushes nearby that might fit the keyhole to the wizards tower"Why do DMs do this?
>>97334565It's a DM shit test. It makes it so you think that your character saw something but isn't important enough to check out but you the player saw what happened and want to investigate but doing so will be metagaming. If the DM hates you then you will get punished but if the DM likes you then nothing will happen or if you are the DM's pet you find what you need despite rolling bad.
>>97348941Lol. You've never played a game in your life.
>>97356033I feel like always letting them find something on the first search, even on a bad roll, is the way to go, on a poor roll it can be additional information of little significance (ink stain, still wet, something was written here recently) or trinket of little value (quill sharpening knife, too short to be any good as a weapon) because in my experience it keeps them from re-investigating the same spot over and over again.
>>97356662You certainly haven't, clearly.

>>97356868Conquest models are pretty neat I must say, regular grunts pass for monstrous infantry in other games.
>>97356981is that the variangan guard?Old dominion is another army I want to buy, I dont like its stranger models, but the normal zombies are fantasticDo you play the game?
>>97357052Yes they are the Varangians. I used some athanatoi arms as well, since they're a dual kit. No, I do not play the game. I've heard it's a good game, but I don't like the 38mm scale. I bought these on impulse because I thought they looked neat.
This will be hip with the joung
>>97357403I don't know who this reflects worse on. The license must be dirt cheap after they bungled it that badly.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere. Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency. If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help: >n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0 >Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128 >Need a starter dungeon?

>>97356631I took a quick look. I'm curious to read it, but the maps seem substantially less interesting jelqed than the Thracia ones. Isn't what I presume to be the last part, Set's Tower, a bit too linear?
>>97356242>https://princeofnothingblogs.wordpress.com/2022/05/24/review-dark-tower-add-1e-3pp-summa-coom-laude/lmaonever change, Paul
Fellas. I've taken anons advice.There'll be three challenging encounters, one easy fight and one patrol throughout the dungeon. But you see the small room at the top of the image? I am thinking of that room having a ladder up to a hatch right by the entrance of the dungeon - this being the lower level - to cut escaping players off. Is that a dickish thing to do? The players can break the ladder if they see it and connect the dots, but if they don't see it then they might wipe while trying to run away through the western stairway. Is that unfair?
>>97357375Welcome to the real /osrg/, Anon.>I am thinking of that room having a ladder up to a hatch right by the entrance of the dungeon - this being the lower level - to cut escaping players off.My main misgiving, if I understand correctly what you intend to do, is that I'm not sure it makes much sense for whoever inhabits the dungeon to have a ladder to cut off invaders who are inside and trying to escape. Generally speaking, the main goal of pretty much *anybody* with a home is to keep robbers from getting in, not to keep them from leaving. And, if anything, an extra ladder right by the entrance just makes the whole place more unsafe for the locals, so why would they leave a ladder there?In other words, it sounds like a gimmick. And gimmicks can feel like meta bullshit and unfair to players, whereas something that is justified by some sort of naturalism is more likely to be received with "ah, that makes perfect sense in hindsight".Of course, if there's extra information that you have omitted and makes it make sense, it might be better.
>>97357375cute map, anon. i didn't see your previous post but, couldn't that one go either way? that's an escape route for the players, or an opportunity to trap the MONSTERS down there?one of the first problems in Barrowmaze is that the (most likely) entrance has some previous adventurers' pulley system dropping into the dungeon, but some asshole has cut the rope. ez solution is to just attach some fresh rope. but a simple hole in the ground being the 'known' entrance creates a lot of opportunity for cleverness and dickery.
At what age do magic users start training in your setting?
>>97355370It started interesting but you're just a freak. I hope you never actually play a game.
>>97355385It's okay, anon. You got your hopes up when you thought you were seeing the hint of something cool. But then you remembered you were in a puckee thread.
>>97355292Why should I? What are you going to contribute in return?
>>97355746You don't want to engage with the thread topic and make this board a little bit better?
>>97356559Do you?
Con/Health is a conceptually boring stat that should at the very least be looked at>Don't play DNDyeah I included health retard
>>97352121how is strength and con more investment than int and con?
>>97348470>For some reason you could make an olympian strength hero with the durability of wet tissue paperhe's one of those bodybuilders with sculpted muscles and no stamina whatsoeverhigh strength + high constitution turns you into one of those built like a bear strongfat motherfuckers
>>97357049Sure, there are ways you could rationalize it. But like >>97352121 said, nobody is actively wanting to make a bodybuilder with low stamina. They want to be Conan or Hercules and have both, so there's no reason to separate them.
>>97357383How do you know no one wants to do that?
>>97352121No, the separation is quite relevant, and it is good and desirable to be able to make monsters that are one of strong or tough, but not both.
