my headcannon is all females were exterminated during the dark age of technology. the emperor made all the femboys able to give natural birth through their assholes. every "female" character is a gene edited male in the setting. in the fourty first millenium, there is only penis

The one single upside of the fucked up political situation right now is that I will live to see the proponents of Femstodes be put into Concentration Camps.

I really think Thalia is a virgin. She must be. She wouldn't give herself to a man before marriage. I just can't see her being a whore. I can't. I wish she was for me, after we were married of course, but in an enthusiastic way, not something dirty. I wish I wasn't genetic trash so I could make a baby with her, see her pale belly grow round and fat with our child, hold her closely while she births him or her. I wish I could make a family with Thalia. I genuinely feel like I love her.

I finally went out with the Toreador lady. Early 30s, petite, 80s lace dress with massive see through areas. I just borrowed a red dress from Assoluta.
Boy Toy had this thing where a woman's instinct to nurture would activate, likely with cute aggression, I hate to admit it but it got me too. I told this customer how young I was and she like moved from mommy to grandma. The patronizing and hugging was somehow more obnoxious than my sire's, but I survived, and the extras made it worth it.
I focused on the things Boy Toy couldn't do, she plays the piano and I know my way around a guitar. I showed her my image in a mirror so she knew I ain't a Lasombra, then my shadow tentacle, "tested and approved by THE Venus in Furs", she threw herself on the bed, it was covered in rose petals and there was pair of towels folded into courting swans, kinda cool.
Total pillow princess, I had to do all the work myself. I cashed in the "first time" and "mourning family" extras on my way out. I know my man had way more vicious clients, but dating this kinda woman ain't so bad.

Nta but I agree, Femstodes aren't an issue to me.
I usually don't give GW credit but them drawing a line in the sand and saying that Space Marines aren't women is a significant move that will have the troons eating their pride and accepting that Custodes is all they're getting.
It's that simple, everyone wins, and I get to imagine enormous hypermuscular women killing the enemies of the Imperium.

Damn straight brother

Historically, a woman might have given birth to six children only for three to reach adulthood, with most deaths occurring during the first year. It was common for 40% to 50% of children to die before reaching puberty.

Maternal mortality was equally prevalent. It is estimated that the number of women who died in childbirth rivaled the number of men who died in wars. In many peaceful eras, childbirth was actually more lethal to the female population than combat was to the male population. Before modern medicine, roughly 1 in 100 to 1 in 150 births resulted in the mother’s death. Because women had multiple pregnancies—often six to ten—their cumulative lifetime risk of dying in childbirth was as high as 1 in 10 or 1 in 20. In many cultures, children weren't named until they were a year old.

Because the risk was so omnipresent, many cultures treated pregnancy with a solemnity that reflected the possibility of death. In many European traditions, women would go to confession or take the Eucharist before labor, often settling their affairs and drafting wills. If they survived, it was celebrated with a formal ceremony of thanksgiving.

How would a fantasy setting tackle it? Let the childhood mortality be as high despite the presence of magic? Have healing magic be rare? Perhaps magic not having figure out how to deal with childbirth because of the two souls problem? Have magic solve the issue with the resulting population explosion? Have monsters/spirts that target children and pregnant women? Have lethality much higher than real life because monsters actively hunt humans?

All reasons for why magic is considered evil by the "Science Side", ie the modernists who follow modern liberal principles:

1. Magic is anti-humanist. It's derived from the power of what's basically Satan, a primordial god that tried and failed to take over the universe. Whenever you use magic, you're basically channeling HER will.

2. Magic is anti-meritocratic. 99% Mages are just born with their powers, and their ability is hard capped at birth. Hard work and effort don't matter, only your parentage does. It inevitably creates aristocratic clan based systems.

3. Magic is sexist and gender essentialist. If you were born male, you can use magic but you can't "create" it or pass it on. If you were born female, you can pass on the gene to your kids but can't use it. So it inevitably creates patriarchal systems.

4. Magic is inherently zero sum. All Mages are basically drawing from the same pool of power. Killing other Mages actively makes you stronger. This system can't allow for peaceful cooperation, it will incentivize Mages to kill and enslave each other.

5. Magic is irrational. You can't really study it to get stronger, you can just hope the true masters of magic (Satan and his followers) just beam the knowledge to you because it helps their plans. The existence of magic makes science impossible.

Wdyt?

Can there be a symbiotic relationship between rats and crocodiles where crocodiles depend on rats to protect their nests from other predators (including the rats themselves) in return for protection from larger predators?

If not crocodiles, dinosaurs will do. It just has to be a big and powerful reptilian predator.

Fuck out of here with your shit game

>>97400178
Currently reading it right now. In short, no, I don't think this game has much of a future.

I see three main issues with it being generally accepted:
1: 5 different monster types having to share one rulebook and not being allowed to let their concepts breathe. So much of the game revolves around facilitating these, in reality, widely disparate creatures finding common cause with each other.

2: The ruleset it's based on, Storypath Ultra, is better suited to action-adventure rather than immersive horror roleplay, further diluting its focus.

3. Curseborne will forever be branded as a WoD replacement game, fairly or not, after Onyx Path lost the licenses to produce World and Chronicles of Darkness. Why play a knockoff when you can play the original?

Curseborne isn't going to stand the test of time, and as it certainly isn't rousing much interest in me, I won't be losing any sleep over it.

Nta but skaven being kind of out of place in fantasy has been discussed for ages. Their origins are basically just a black plague reference (their first models already had plague monks after all), but everything skryre and moulder is a bit much compared to most of whfb.

I have this hang up where I think like half of the armies are pretty cool and I like them for various reasons. But then 1/4 of the armies I dislike so much that even fighting them would make me upset due to having to interact with them against my aesthetic will. That’s my problem with AoS.

1. Make sure you clean up flashing and sprue points. Flashing is the lines where two parts of a mold meet and sprue points are where you cut models free from their plastic frame for assembly. It is easy to do this with a hobby knife or sand paper. Both show up pretty noticeablely when painted.

2. Primer matters. If you are using Speed paint, contrast paint, etc. your primer should be a very light shade. Either white or light gray or light beige. Using dark colors basically make those paints useless. If using acrylics, pick whatever primer you want, it will effect the overall brightness of your paint.

3. Shades. Shades can make even a mediocre paint job look much better. They are cheap as hell and last a long time. Definitely get them. Primer, paint, and shades are pretty much essential for all mini painting.

>>97394782
Dude don’t recommend texture paint slop or contrast slop. Let him learn the fundamentals and traditional ways of doing things so he can grow into a skilled painter instead of a contrast slipper/textureslopper.

OP I recommend you buy a can of primer and watch some YouTube videos on priming. After you’ve primed your models and they have had time to dry, you can begin painting. Again watch intro YouTube videos to learn basics about thinning down paint etc. if money isn’t an issue get a wet palette.

Focus on learning the basics first, base coating, highlighting and brushing. Once you can do those to a good standard you can start looking into contrast/speed paints and learn how to make glazes etc. but get the basics down first. Also don’t stress, this is a relaxing hobby and no one judges beginners.

As far as weapon selection is concerned, shouldn't they really be more about skill floor, skill ceiling, reach, and cost rather than "damage"? Like wow, the sword. Difficult to learn, pretty expensive compared to many other options, but if you're good with it you have a pretty good advantage against most others but still have a reach disadvantage against polearms. Still, a gentlemanly weapon (or at least potentially so, you could be a brokeass with a messer) so maybe you also get some advantage in social situations.

Isn't damage numbers the most boring thing possible to differentiate weapons with?

>>97389294
GURPS is less of a game, and more of a tookit for lazy faggots to "create" their own game. It's the AI slop of TTRPGs; you're not actually creating anything, you're just slapping together a bunch of pre-existing rules to make a worse version of a system specialized and made from scratch.

>>97399973
As someone who ran a few quests way back in the day, I'd say no system that exists is really made for quests. You need to make a system that suits your particular quest and is easily understood by whoever is coming and going at any given time you are running things.

From what I understand of Daggerheart, you have two meta-currencies to juggle. Hope, for player characters to use many of their abilities and fudge rolls, which would be a pain in the ass to resolve in a thread format. Imagine every action players asking to perform needing to then go through whether or not to use tags or activate abilities or whatever.

Then there's Fear, which is the GM's meta-currency for making things more dangerous, escalating problems, giving baddies extra attacks, or whatever. Again, everything that happens in the quest needing you to decide if and when you're going to activate an interrupting interjection while you are already juggling one or more player characters being controlled by several random assholes.

This would be a bad way to try the system and a not especially successful quest, in my estimation.

>>97400042
