Necromancy Edition>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 notTC 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.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/Comment too long.

I look for inspiration in my heart, anon
>TQHistorical recollections from many battles in history, Band of Brothers, Generation Kill, that one documentary on the Arab Spring.
Apparently there's a vidya game called Hunger (not to be mistaken with The Hunger, Fear and Hunger, or Hunger Games franchise). The premise is napoleonic era zombie apocalypse, remnants of mankind keeping the hordes at bay with faith and experimental weaponry. Which is admittedly a bit of a stretch from WW1 of the faithful against assorted spawns of devil's asshole, but I feel like there is a bit of a similar vibes there anyway.
>TQ but reversedI finished reading Between Two Fires over a year ago and first heard about TC while looking online for discussion about the book and similar media. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re on the hunt for a book in the same genre/vibe as TC
>>97356328In terms of media related, A Roadside Picnic/STALKER gives a distinct Trench Pilgrim feel,Desperately trying to deal with supranatural forces you barely understand.
Is there any way I can incorporate my fetish in my fantasy world without it becoming a magical realm?
>>97356366Rebecca is the patrician choice. Eldars are babby's first foray into tabletops.
>>97288951ok but sauce?
>>97356366Cute techpriest! CUTE!
>>97356497Sauce? There's no sauce.
>>97356529OP did not create that image. It came from somewhere.
Is it better to have fully anthropomorphic beast people in your settings or just humans with like animal ears and tails?
>>97353511>>Barnyard cat and retired wizard's familiar is sole witness to a murder, but cannot legally testify, due to still being a cat.being a cat is no excuse to not answer a court summons, especially since it is known that the cat knows how to speak and thus presumably listen to a reading of the court summons.
>>97351382That looks even worse though
>>97351510Yeah theres no good faith argument here.
>>97349794I mean yes this movie was famously repulsive. Most depictions of animal people are less disgusting than this.
>>97356436Ngl I'd still do a significant portion of the female cast
There seems to be two types of wizards:>Slovenly eccentric geniuses>Strict organized perfectionistsI think this is because you have to be highly intelligent to become a wizard.
>>97316781Because D&D is derivative of a derivative of a derivative.The baseline for all fantasy, is mythology and fairy stories.

>>97355749Oh nvm Shelob is in plastic, nice!
Where are my Titanicus chads at?
>>97355779In the same room as the Battlefleet chads.
>>97355762I wish they'd included a plastic Samwise with the phial in there. Hobbit minis are only an inch tall FFS. And it would have increased the set's appeal to collectors/painters/diorama-makers. And the competitive crowd are mad the base size went up. I'll probably grab it eventually.
>>97355762GW has been moving away from Resin for a while now. I wouldn't be surprised if we get any new resin models after next week
>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?

Kill yourself if you do this.
>>97355319roll better fag
>>97348932As in, ahead. As in, to he next room.
>>97355319Yeah DMs who require investigation rolls for every angle "i look for X" declaration are shit, and then those DMs realize "oh shit he failed well that's gonna fuck everything up" and say you succeeded anyway. Yeah, some of them are using that check to see if you actually found something else, but very few DMs are that crafty.
>>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.
>>97354826I don't have a 3rd edition rulebook to hand but in 4th casualties caused by blast weapons can be removed from anywhere in the unit explicitly to prevent sniping out specific models with the blast template. (4th is also just generally 3e but better anyway, and you can play with 3e codexes if you don't like the 4e ones).
>>97355990>All gone, like tears down cruddaces face when a battlesister squad heavy flamered his precious Eldar.The Eldar were Phil Kelly's domain back then, I thought the Guard was Cruddace's darling?
>>97356457Cruddace was noted for being a guard player and getting raped by tyranids, which given the time frame would certainly indicate a skill issue.
>>97355990The Witch Hunters codex had a few strange things too.Battle sisters squads being 10 to 20 models, while the 2001 CA was 5 to 10.Retributors squads lost their Heavy Flamer with the WH codexImmolator also lost the ability to shoot the Twin heavy flamer while moving 12"Till this day I have no idea why the Dominion squad special weapon cost more the CA version costed the same (well they where just called Battle sisters in a fast attack slot) and the Dominions are almost the same but can be taken in smaller squads and can take more special weapons. But the ability to take more is negated by the extra cost
>>97341186Karl Kopinski, Paul Dainton, Adrian Smith and John Blanche basically created the feel of 40k. Modern, antiseptic and bland digital 40k art looks so soulless in comparison.
At what age do magic users start training in your setting?
>>97353397Wizards go around towns and villages casting Divination spells to locate fetuses destined to become wizards. They weave enchantments to enter strangers' homes without causing concern and whisper to the bellies of pregnant women who carry their future apprentices. The wizards probably also fuck the pregnant women while the husbands are forced to watch, and end up molesting the apprentices too, but that's incidental.
>>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?
>four "chaos" gods>only one actually embodies the concept of chaoswhat did they mean by this?
>>97355936There's a chaos god of ironsmiths? I've never been super interested in Warhammer or GW. But I'd be interested in hearing about that.
>>97355999>There's a chaos god of ironsmiths?He probably means Hashut the father of darkness. Him being associated primarily with malicious artifice is a new development as he was always the god of tyranny, greed, fire and hatred.
>>97345793>40k lore is bad and stupidno way!
>>97345793Yet none of them represent sandstorms, tsunamis, or earthquakes.

Do you prefer Pokémon, Yugioh, or Magic the Gathering?
are pokemon ttrpgs discussed on /tg/?i was checking the catalog lately and haven't noticed any. please don't tell me to go to /vp/, I've briefly looked there and I don't want to do it ever again.

For any OOC questions about WoD/CofD, check the official general. >>97224887Rules:>We are acephale. There is no storyteller, we are not a quest.>This thread is based primarily but not exclusively in the nWoD/CofD game Hunter: the Vigil. However, Vigil is defined by being highly setting agnostic, with a system for creating entirely custom monsters that do not exist in other WoD/CofD games.

>>97352636>even if they began their existence as a normal humanSo we're talking about ghosts? I mean, they're not really human anymore. It's best to put them to rest for good.
>>97353367 It was fun while it lasted. Guess we simply ran out of steam.
>>97355263Vampires also start as people just like you and me, and I doubt they're the only ones. You're avoiding the question. Is there some inherent property of the supernatural that makes people evil?
>Vampires also start as people just like you and meNot from what I know >You're avoiding the question. Is there some inherent property of the supernatural that makes people evil?It's the corrupting aspect of it. These things stop being human, some pretend they still are like you or I and others don't even bother. I have never met a creature that didn't deserve death. There always was something that they've done.

>>97350943There is a table in each of the core rulebooks that give you a number-to-symbol conversion.
>>97350943You can get sets of blank dice pretty cheap if that would fix it for you.
checked out Artefact because it had great reviews and sounded cool as helland it's basically like.... 5 pages blown up to 50, and there are basically no prompts or tables or anything to nudge your imagination in itits literally just steps like>ok imagine your artefact was like sitting there for a long time pick how much time>now imagine that like someone found it and used it for a while>ok now imagine it was sitting there for a while again>now imagine someone found it againand that's literally ALL there is in the bookthere's literally nothing in there to nudge your imagination or give you some crumbs to get things flowing or give you suggestions or anything like thatreally lameits like someone saying "i made a book that helps you imagine your own adventure!!" and you open it and there's just one sentence in it that says "ok, imagine your own adventure. imagine the beginning, the middle, and the end. wow you did it great job thanks for buying my book"

painted my first ever space marines. white was a hard choice and I probably went about it the worst way possible, but happy with how they came out. played them vs plague marines and it felt a lot more fun and balanced than my usual matchup with my buddy, Exaction vs Vespids. I wanna make space cops work but it just feels like an uphill battle compared to playing canoptek or even AoD.
>>97355851A tip for white is to not use white, instead aiming for a very light gray/off-white, so that you can then highlight with pure white. More usable as a tip I think is that painting the bases will probably help the models a lot. Currently they blend into the unpainted terrain and it makes the models look unfinished.
>>97355922>More usable as a tip I think is that painting the bases will probably help the models a lot. Currently they blend into the unpainted terrain and it makes the models look unfinished.Seconding this. Unfinished bases are always a drag, but in this case they actively hurt the paintjob of the marines.
>>97355922>>97355942pretty easy fix. Noted for the future about grey-white progression. I learned a lot over the process. Would deffo airbrush grey to start next time, then white over top to get that gradient, leaving some room to edge highlight with the brightest white possible.

Does anyone has the DM screen for Steinhart's Guide to the Eldritch Hunt. I'm starting my campaign and was really curious on what's on it as my DM screen is kinda old and I wanted to upgrade it
>>97356277I dont know if there is one in digital format but I have this if you want to print it

>>97356347Super thankfull for the art, but do you have also the other side with the rules?I would be gratful even if you only had some pics of the rules. I checked on his site and the only thing you can buy is the physical copy wich sold out and throught the photos you can only see the rules they have on all the basic DM screens.
>>97356470No. I want the back side too. I requested it here some time ago but I dont think anyone has it in good quality.

Building an Echo Knight fighter (2014) for a few campaign starting soon, and I have no idea what to do for feats and race. My (rolled) stats are>17, 12, 8, 15, 15, 9Human fits the backstory I have, but I can't decide on a feat. Non-variant human works with my odd stats but is a little boring. I'm using the unarmed fighting style with a backup two hander, but I can't really use tavern brawler because grappling doesn't work great with the echo. Not taking GWM because I'm stubborn and hate that it exists. Any suggestions for fun race/feat/multiclass options?
I rolled on the Hoard Loot table in the DMG.Now my players have a Candle of the Deep.What are some cool things they could do with it?Or is it really just a candle that doesn't go out when wet?
>>97355995Yes non variant human is the way to go. +1 in 4 different stats is just too good to pass up. Otherwise the usual fighter races are good like goliath, dwarf etc.Unarmed? Okay, I won’t stop you. A lot of feats I’d recommend would be for different weapons. I’ll give some general ones.>FeatsLucky, alert, magic initiate with shield of faith (or something else), resilient for wisdom, warcaster>Multiclass optionsThe obvious one is wizard, bladesinger might make your lack of shield not a problem. Diviner is also a good choice.
>>97356386>. +1 in 4 different stats is just too good to pass up.Figured. Though I'm not sure how much better it is, with any race that gives +1/+1/+1 or vuman with a half feat I can get +1 to 3 stats and also the benefits of the race/feat. It's a short while till session 1 so I can choose base human for now regardless>Unarmed I picked it for flavour, I imagine I'll mostly be two handing and but I'll bring up the fists for being disarmed, low stakes encounters, some roleplay things like bar fights. I picked two handers as my back up because I feel they can skip taking GWF without losing much, but one handers and ranged weapons lose more for skipping their dedicated styles >warcaster/bladesingerI think you may have read echo knight as eldritch knight
