If Gaia made everything, including the Garou and the spirits, surely she would have thought to maybe allow them some free thinking in the eventual case that all her children murder each other and an uppity cunt she also created decided to get cursed and create cursed offspring which then cursed her own offspring to forever lose access to their ancestors and ancestral home? Surely Owl can make an exception or something, it's not like Garou are actually immortal.

How much do you need to shake contrast paint bottles? Because I feel like the last few bits of the paint pot must have had 20x the concentration of the top 90% of the pot.

This shit was 50% paint thinner and even then a quick spray and I go to full on "Black" on the one terminator. Meanwhile the tacticals took 3/4 coatings just fine last time.

Custodes are a very focused army. So in some senses? Yes. In others? No.

Playing custodes probably wont teach you how to play marines or admech or SA, theres not a lot of overlap between them. Its going to teach you how to play custodes. And custodes - on their own - require some finangling to win with due to how scoring works currently. In a straight up "killing" game? Yea, theyre really easy to play. Youe entire army is melee elites that wipe the floor with basically anything they touch, and you just need to run at people.

Basically: Custodes more or less ignore a lot of the game (super high mental stats, never run away, dont care about scoring much), have small and elite armies with clearly defined roles for units and are good for learning the basic rules of the game and how your army works. But they require very careful play to actually win because they dont interact well with some aspects of objective play (which in turn lets you focus more on learning basic rules if thats what youre worried about)

dunno about contrast paints, but I got this vortex mixer from aliexpress for about 20 bucks a few years ago and it works like a charm. however if a paint wasn't used for months then a bit of hand shaking is necessary as in: few strong shakes (like a downward swing), 10 sec of vortex, repeat a few times.

>I was under the impression that anything from 7 to 9 is a success anyway, are lower rolls always better?
On a normal roll, 7-9 is one success and 10 is two successes, which is to say that by default 10s are doubled. Having double 9s means that rolling a 9 or 10 counts as two successes, double 8s means that rolling 8s through to 10s counts as two successes, and double 7s means that rolling 7 through to 10 counts as two successes each.

By default, if you roll ten dice and score one of each number 1-10, you score five successes (7 8 9 = 3, 10 = 5). If you have double 7s you would score eight successes. This is also about how the averages work, so if you're assigning difficulties to an action keep in mind that by default it takes someone with twice the number of dice as the Difficulty to succeed about 60% of the time. Six dice is likely to meet Difficulty 3, ten dice has about a 60% chance of meeting Difficulty 5, and so on. With double 7s those same six dice are likely to meet Difficulty 5, and ten dice are likely to beat Difficulty 7.

>>97390861
Agreeing with this guy. The first thing that comes to my mind is that people with experience in other games can get precious about their characters and it takes a bit of experience as a GM to get past that hump, especially as clones might not even survive the mission briefing if everything goes as it should. The second thing is that Paranoia missions can go off the rails very fast, not in the "this module is a railroad" sense, in the unexpected and chaotic sense so you'd have to be comfortable with the rules and improvising.

I did look at the rules. I'm allowed to.

Why is there so much whinging about 'No Games' on this board? I understand that those who come here solely with the intention of discussing tropes and the like can be frustrating to deal with, but there seem to be some folks here who make it their mission to drop bursts of negativity in threads they should've known would enrage them. And even in these threads that hold more general discussion, I don't see how nearly all of them are not at least tangentially related to traditional gaming.
>>
>>97391485
>at least tangentially related to traditional gaming.
some people hate it unless you are directly discussing traditional games
(and then some people will go ahead and ask "traditional games?" in threads about specific games anyway)
>>
because its a small number, if not a single person, who makes thread after thread after thread after thread asking the most vague, hardly /tg/ relevant questions. Usually providing no further context or thoughts past a single sentence, if that, and often just repeated or rephrased from a thread already made. mods and janitors refuse to prune them, so the rest of the board have become irritated with them and the threads and no longer wish to even feign polite indifference.

Tabletop RPGs tend to split up crafting into a high number of crafting subskills for every individual area of expertise. There's no question that crafting is still extremely powerful despite forcing you to go through this hassle, but what are your thoughts on which particular crafting subskills tend to be the most useful in the context of a TTRPG campaign, be it a medieval or modern or sci-fi setting?

Pic related is from Legend of the Five Rings, where I'll be playing a crafter soon, and I intend to invest heavily into crafting. But feel free to talk about any game you've had experience with.

That's how it originally was. The BL gave sacrifice and worship to the gods only because they were fucked otherwise, but personally hated the position they were in. They routinely crossed the god they were previously making offering go to be in better graces with the god they needed to get cozy next. They were also the only legion to figure out how to get out of possession, even if it left the body warped and mutated. Basically, they were the minmaxers of Chaos.
>>

Word Bearers don't worship Chaos gods, they worship the Warp itself.
>>
>>97387179
The point is, they're all wrong and deluded. The gods exist whether you believe them or not. All of the rest is cope.
The real-life explanation is that actual religious fanatics would probably come off as really disturbing. Even the Word-Bearers are very transactional in their worship, they do it to get bennies.
If they were like Muslims, that would probably be too far even by grim, dark standards.
