>>97242400IF you want to keep it really, really simple for the introduction and maybe scaling it bit by bit after the first game then I'd recommend OPR Skirmish, and only go into Frostgrave and Mordheim if she really gets into fantasy skirmish
>>97242400You should get her on a diet and a stairmaster. Also Warhammer Quest (1995)
>>97244245She's a beast on the stair master desu. She'll hammer that thing for hours straight. I do my cardio in short sprints but she just keeps climbing.And good point on WHQ. I've always wanted to play that.
>>97218660>to most people the idea that you'd line up in neat ranks and take turns shooting each other seems absurdwell yeah if you describe it like that then it definitely would. history in general is gonna seem really strange if your starting assumption is that anyone who lived before "now" had the IQ of a root vegetable.

>>97194760One level of Swash, 5 levels of Musket Master. Main stat dex but get 14 Str for power attack and 3 extra dmg when two-handing. Take Weapon Versatility to deal piercing dmg and qualify your Axe Musket for swashbuckler finesse, adding dex to dmg and str to dmg. At lv 5 musket master you add dex to dmg with two-handed firearms and it doesn't specify ranged attacks, so you're adding STR, DEX, and 1.5x PA while attacking with the melee portion of your weapon. If you stay another two levels of gunslinger you can take the Gruesome Parry deed of renown to crit enemies with a readied attack. Or go with Trench Fighter and take static Att/Dmg additions like Weapon Focus/Weapon Specialization (Axe Musket) to add it to both portions of the weapon. Less rules-lawyery.
>>97213287Instead of "Fighter but sci-fi" they made Soldier exclusively AoE weapon based.Operative has a big list of their specialties, but all but two are worthless. They get a huge number of skill feats but barely any skill increases to use them. Despite this Aim is ridiculously strong with action compression and they start with Expert in Martial Guns which gives them a big leg up on every other class in the game.Solarian's abilities amount to being a fighter with an innate weapon but none of the fighter feats, no heavy armor or advanced weapon proficiency, and weapon proficiencies start as trained instead of expert.Envoy lost all the pseudohealing they had in 1e, now every party is required to have a Mystic. Every Envoy ability pretty much requires you to spend two actions to get a meaningful effect.The Ancestries section is twice as long as the Class section because they wanted to make sure every freakshit and sparkledog race from 1e was made core.
>>97242800>The Ancestries section is twice as long as the Class section because they wanted to make sure every freakshit and sparkledog race from 1e was made core.Why are you getting mad that one of the core ideas of Starfinder, that it's a Star Trek/Wars ultradiverse setting, is actually supported in the book? "Getting more is bad"?
What are the funniest wargame mechanics you've ever encountered?
>>97243344So Wheels can't deploy from the other side of the table?
In Chan of Command your commander can become a drunkard if you lose enough battles
>>97244175I'm pretty sure the outflank rule was only introduced in the following edition, and at the time the WS player would have had to move his units on board through his own table edge, which he couldn't do since you can't move through enemy models and he had no jump infantry (which could move over the Kroot) or tanks (which could force the Kroot out of the way with a tank shock test). As people have pointed out before, there would have been plenty of ways to prevent this scenario: just deploying one unit on the board would have been enough since you couldn't be infiltrating units within 12'' (if there's no LOS) or 18'' (if there is LOS) of enemy units. But since he was playing a WAAC list consisting nothing but fast bikes that arrive on board on the player's first turn to ensure the opponent can never shoot at them before they get to move and shoot, he had his whole army in reserves and lacked any way to get past a single unit think Kroot conga-line.
>>97244175No, he would require Khan to do that and he'd come in off the sides. You couldn't just come in from reserves anywhere at the time, you had to arrive from your table edge unless you were outflanking (a specific, declared rule) or you were Snikrot, who could specifically come in on the enemy's edge. This is providing this is 5th, which I believe it is since the deployment type seems to be "Dawn of War" (deploy HQ and two troops, everything else in reserve) and null deployment on Dawn of War was very common. This deployment type added to the mechanization if 5th ed armies, but that's a different topic. It meant 1/3 of the time your static firepower had to walk onto the table, so they couldn't shoot at all and couldn't run since that wasn't a thing.I want to point out that this is a full 4x6 table, so that's an asston of kroot even fully spread at 2" coherency.
>>97244338>>97244389Ah I see.I didn't understand any of your explanations, I never got within 20 meters of a tabletop game. But thanks for explaining eitherway.

>>97242206You're getting pretty harsh responses and desu I felt like giving you one too.The squealing yearning for low-effort instant gratification is pretty sad. Your nephew should be excited to dig into the rules and lore and to learn how to do miniature modeling. He should have been curled up on a couch reading the rulebook multiple times. Teach him some patience. And have some creativity yourself -- if you had really wanted to play an immediate demo game you could've use tokens, empty bases from the box, etc.Your rage reminds me of a washed-up divorce dad sloptuber (Guerilla Miniatures) who is constantly yammering about games "passing the Christmas morning test" but that's the province of a denuded cuntsoomer bitch who goes through game systems like bags of Doritos, playing them once or twice and then abandoning them to the Shelv'ed Wastes of the basement.For less than the cost of a Big Mac, fries and a Coke, you can buy a loaf of fresh bread and some good cheese or roast beef, which you will enjoy much more.
If elves weren't the pinnacle of all creation than why do they get the privilege of working in Santa's workshop?
>>97236515Dwarves and elves are literally synonyms. So in a sense they are.
>>97227600Elves, failing to be humans, lack souls and thus may never enter into Heaven. While some of these creatures content themselves with their ageless nature, others recognize that even they must one day pass on, and so seek out Saint Nicholas. They then craft presents for good Christian children until the day they die, striving to earn a soul but unable to know until they find either Heaven or oblivion.

Why the FUCK is his power armor broken? The Badab War was 100 years ago.

Does GW even know their own fucking setting anymore?
>>97244034I didn't think of that, you're right. I've always thought, however, that the mehreen power fists and claws are way too bulky to raise like that, they'd get caught on the forearm plate

Guys, I want to talk about HELLPIERCERS. I bought this game a bit ago because I thought it looked cool, and I've read it, and I don't know enough people weird enough to play it with me, and I can't stop thinking about it, and I just have to talk about it with someone.>First up: what the fuck is Hellpiercers? And why do you spell it in all-caps? Do you have autism?HELLPIERCERS is a tactical tabletop RPG developed by SandyPug Games alongside a few people who did some dev work on some of the Lancer supplements. It casts the PCs as gnostic demigod heroes and veterans of the War in Heaven, who aided the forces of humanity in regaining their stolen gnosis and slaying the Demiurge, his Archons, and angelic generals. Having conquered Heaven and liberated the mortal plane from the tyranny of false divinity, they now cast their eyes downward, into Hell, where countless human souls remain enslaved by the demon lords below. Hellpiercers, armed with their god-slaying weapons, clad in armor forged from the corpses of angels, lead a war of liberation against the forces of Hell, to free the enslaved souls of every human who has ever lived.I spell it in all-caps because it's title is rendered in all-caps. I'm pretty sure I'm not autistic, but I've never been tested, so who even fucking knows?
>>97235095Why the hell is Gnosticism so popular?
>>97242679Because it's meaningless. It's a word to prove that you're not like the other girls (male).
>>97242679Gnosticism posits that the secret truth of the universe is that we are trapped in an illusion/simulation/prison, and the deity responsible for this is evil. So by rejecting this twisted reality and fighting against it, you are a heroic rebel. It lets you be iconoclastic, rebellious, but also be the good guy because you're aligned with a greater cosmic good that exists beyond the demiurge. You get to have a punch-up with god, but like, without having to go full fedora about it.Which does kind of boil down to what >>97242687 says, I admit
>>97235095I'm not sure that setting makes sense: gnosticism is still totally monotheistic, just that the demi-urge is larping as the one true god when he's not. Using terms like "god-slayer" is completely antithetical to the beliefs of gnosticism, as the protagonists would inherently reject that the things they killed were gods. It might sound like a nitpick but it's a critical distinction. It's a red flag that there's no reference in the text to there being any sort of actual god in the setting, plus "free the enslaved souls of every human who has ever lived" from hell? Really? Even the rapists and child molesters? Would the devs want Hitler to be "liberated"? The whole thing reeks of an edgy atheist power fantasy.
>>97243533>It might sound like a nitpick but it's a critical distinctionIf a guy calls himself a god and I kill him, I don't care if he was lying; I'm calling myself a godslayer>It's a red flag that there's no reference in the text to there being any sort of actual god in the settingIn the narrative present, it's been, like, five years since humans put the Demiurge to the sword. They might not actually know about the Pleroma. Or it's an excuse plot for tactical demon-slaying. Probably a little of both.>Even the rapists and child molesters? Would the devs want Hitler to be "liberated"?I won't make any argument on the part of the devs, but if someone told me Hitler was a devout servant of the archons who was consumed by his masters in their hour of need, I'd believe it. In a more abstract sense, if someone told me "Only humans are fit to judge humans. Hitler must be judged, but that judgment is neither the responsibility nor to the right of anyone but humans." I wouldn't... disagree with it.
