>it's absolutely retarded to make feats named with setting-specific stuff
Why? The system isn't generic, everything about it is heavily tied to its settings. It's one thing to complain about mechanics that don't make sense for the game or when they lazily make blatantly unbalanced mechanics because "uhh it's setting specific!!!" like Strixhaven (as if changing the setting somehow balances it), but having character options themed around the world is the bare minimum for almost every RPG out there.

I get why people dislike it but the "once per turn (army)" stuff is there to discourage people from taking multiple of a unit and not have constant spam lists. They can definitely get away with not having that for weaker effects but I'm not sure how else they can write the rules to minimize that kind of thing from happening, since they clearly aren't interested in hotfixing with active regular updates to rules. The other option would be 40k's "rule of 3" which I don't love either because while spam lists suck, 3 unit max is too limiting and you can have more than 3 low points units and not have it be a spam list.

>lets make a whole faction that' just slayers, people will eat that shit up
GW found out the hard way that there are concepts that work well and are cool for characters, that dont' work for entire factions. A unit of slayers can be cool, there's nothing cool about an army that's only naked dwarves. Berserkers are cool when you contrast them to dudes wearing heavy armor. When it's all just berserkers with no armor, they all look weak and lame.

Stop looking at fantasy settings and its cultural dialogue through contemporary utilitarian lenses.

Your present reasoning and thoughts are a direct result of sociocultural narratives, they're not objectively reasonable or the apex of human thought.

I have the feeling, because years ago I tried, this is going to suck. It's been years since I checked 2e but I don't think a lightning fist, metal skinned, super fast (120ft/move), super jump high and far, trip monster with 8 AoO human monk with almost no magic items (because GM doesn't use them) can be replicated in any of those games. I dunno why he doesn't just make a new game with a new plot

Idk the impression I got from Malfoy (until book 5 at least) was more that his family just said a bunch of things and the kid picked it up more than he actually meant anything. The little perspective you do get on him usually isn't making him out to be quite so racist all the time but perhaps maybe Rowling was just surprisingly subtle over it.

I've never been able to find a system with space combat I like, so I'm thinking about a sci-fi setting where "space is boring" i.e. all the adventures happen on planets/at human scale.
Aside from "space war is all computers, you either have the capability to punch through enemy pickets or instantly die when you try" is there anything else I could do to help establish this sort of convention?

Because those were some obscure memes and nobody has a copy. They simply didn't migrate it from 1d4 when they had a copy

Consider this:
They cut the entire original approved movies list, just because. Took monumental edit war and eventually a DDoS to make them reconsider.
So considerting the level of damage anticipated and how it ended, I say it's workable.
2d4 meanwhile started out as 1:1 repository, but then the dumb fuck who set it up went with a machete across the pages, slashing whatever he felt like it, and openly saying that fuck keeping old shit, time to update.
Which is why 2d4 is now run by Korean spam bots, I guess

Rebellions in 40k usually happen on a single world, or within a very limited region, and are often isolated before they can spread.

In Star Wars, the rebels are far weaker than the Empire, but because hyperdrives are easy to obtain and relatively safe, they can carry out guerrilla tactics. By contrast, the Imperium in 40k doesn’t have a rebel problem as severe as the Galactic Empire did, because warp travel is terrible and can't really do it without a Navigator

so if the Imperium ever figures out a truly safe form of faster-than-light travel, it would face horrific rebel problems all across the galaxy.
