>>97281246Yeah they haven't updated Rewards of Treason
GW should have used the new weapon trait rules to add a 'Bayonet' trait so they don't have to constantly state 'any more with X can take a bayonet' in the options.Change my mind
>>97282261>bolter/pistol/ccw vetsI'm sorry, anon. Thinking it over, maybe that's workable, from a balance standpoint. Rip true grit, but look at Centurion Command squads. Maybe it's okay that a unit with proper melee cannot wield good dakka. And the one that can, pays extra because that's termies.I mean look at pistols. Limited Return Fire, don't compete against actual guns in VEQ squads, they fire yet again in Volley Fore...aren't they the most relevant they've ever been?
I want to make some red butchers now that they are a WAAC unit, but I don't love the existing resin poses. Converting sounds more fun anyway, but I can't find the right bits for the butcher chainfists. Does anybody make good dual powerfist / chainfist arms for cata termies?
>>97282479How would that help? Traits don't do anything on their own, and you have to be told to take from a wargear list, the wargear list doesn't describe who can take from it. At best you could make a bayonet wargear list and reduce the lines from 3 to 1 but A) we've established people have more trouble parsing wargear lists nested in text, see veteran tacticals and B) the only real thing you could with it is add some legion weapon to the bayonets list, and the only ones stupid rough to have non power weapon legion weapons are space wolves and world eaters.

Requesting Kazad Mor by Taylor Seely-Wright
Looking for- one way out- Hell World Earth- rue from ruin-brightborne- everything available for entity
Anyone willing to point me to a VTT Trove? Tokens (been to the one in the OP), Foundry, Roll20 I might be able to find something in any of them. Thank you in advance.
>>97280101It's not available yet, even to backers.
Anyone play it yet? I like the "rustic fantasy" setting. The core rules seem interesting, it has more mechanics and gameplay than most other narrative games. I enjoy that it doesn't have moves or whatever to confine you, you can actually play your character and do whatever you want. It's got enough knobs and options in terms of resolution I feel like it's actually a real game despite having that more story focus vs simulation focus. And I like that the DM has all the traditional power of the DM and there's not like "Fate Points" or something else that gives players control to change stuff.Thinking I might try a short game for my table, just a few lower powered sessions. It also has good tools for a solo stuff which is interesting.
>>97280306I mostly wanted to see what the fuss was about. Taking a closer look at it, I take back my declaration to distribute it to my friends. I've seen better games, and I don't have the energy to dog on OP for this one.
>>97280529What systems do what this one wants to better?
>>97281603Absolutely take what I say with a grain of salt since I'm no game dev, but I'd honestly stick to a Powered by the Apocalypse game system, since it seems to want to be basically a more customizable version of that with the whole Tropes and Tags idea of character building. Though in a sense, it also reminds me a lot of Risus in that way.
>>97282455The biggest thing I struggle with for the PBTA stuff is the moves feel constricting to me. I just don't feel like I'm authentically doing what I want to when it comes to do "all actions you can take are one of these 9 moves."
>>97276085It sucks
Why were so many of the "OG" game designers insufferable faggots? It seems like the vast majority of game designers from the 70s and 80s were self-obsessed dickheads who openly hated and looked down on their customer base. There were obviously exceptions, and some like Gygax would go on to regret and apologize for it, but still, what made so many "professionals" back then such fags?Pic related: WFRP author James Wallis's response to a letter criticizing how railroaded The Enemy Within campaign was.
>>97279869Still conceding? lol
>>97279918Boring troll.
>>97263198>There's another one where a character in one of his games get arrested, and he just makes the player do nothing for what sounds like literal months of sessions.This stinks of being something he made up since there's no fucking way somebody would put up with that
>>97276477>yeah i negated your characters achievements by fiat>this game should be about an inevitable downward spiral>you should be knee deep in shit at all times and never succeed at anything>the gm should fuck you over at every possible opportunity because the world should hate youThat's not adversarial GMing or faggotry, huh.

>>97276871Descent 1: doors at certain points. When a hero opened it a story block introduced the place in detail, that point all the enemy was placed as well in that room.Also the game used overlord (one player controls enemies and gets cards which could be used for random events). Played ages ago but stil remember the first time when in the middle of hero movement the overlord stopped it and had to roll saving roll, floor collapsed to a trap. Middara at the other hand using totems and objective tokens. During gameplay when you are at line of sight of a totem (at any distance) a hidden text is read, small description represents what heroes see or hear, new enemies, objects are placed. Objective tokens need to activate by a hero and have similar effects. Basically all of these are the fog of war elements. In middara sometimes the goal is hidden as well and these elements place those on map. In middara also sometimes there are more than one (map) exit, both introduced differently so heroes chose which route have better promise: easier route but it might be more occupied towards the hive or the harder one which might lead you closer to your goals.
>>97280499We wrapped up the campaign for The Crew Deep Sea.Was fun.
>>97280595>>97280466Personally, I think it's a fun way to curate your collection, but I can see how you wouldn't bother if it felt like a hassle.
What game do you put in the empty slot? Needs to be medium weight-ish and playable in 2 hours, not have too much direct take that and that it scales decently 2-4 players. Also needs to be "interesting"/unique enough so that it doesn't get overshadowed by the game that is too similar to it in the collection I guess. Preferably it has nice theme and table presence, I'm kind of worn out on drab euros.No> Hansa Teutonica> Calimala> Marco Polo II> Trajan> Lost Ruins of Arnak> The White Castle> Cyclades> Power Grid> Saltfjord> Obsession> Pulsar 2849> ArcsComment too long.

>In the game Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou (werewolves) were made to defend the earth from the cosmic forces that threaten to tear it apart. The Garou fight against the Wyrm, the destroyer. It is a struggle against nearly insurmountable odds, especially considering the rivalry between many tribes. These rivalries make it almost impossible for the werewolves to present a unified front against a cosmic force that pervades reality.>From this morass of hatred and mutual betrayal, there is little hope that the Garou can emerge triumphant against a foe so well armed as the Wyrm. The Wyrm promises money, power, sex, and whatever else the heart desires to its followers while the Garou receive no reward for their striving. It drives them deeper and deeper into despair, or into betrayal so deep that they choose to serve the Wyrm instead.Main Rulebooks:>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Rulebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Rulebook>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Second Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Second_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Revised Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Revised_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_20th_Anniversary_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th Edition Corebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_5th_Edition_CorebookComment too long.

>>97213258For whatever faults the Get had, they knew to stay in their fucking lane. They didn't try to be something the Garou aren't. The Children of Gaia can fuck right off with their gay hippy kumbaya shit. There's some fera whose gimmick they stole and culture they appropriated. I'm 1,000% sure it's true.

Realistically what would life in a world of superheroes where your ability is defined by your bloodline be like? Would eugenics be common place in such a world? Would government affect them if the abilities could range from pointless to Homelander level at best?
Elves are hunted because >Their meat tastes better than anything>Their blood can cure illnesses>Their bones are beautiful and jewel-like>Their hair is nearly unbreakable and can be woven into unbreakable fabric>Their organs have specific propertiesAs a result, they've gone from living like well, elves to basically becoming an entire race consisting of Guts from Berserk.

>>97281054Depending on the timeline of the powers appearance:In Ancient times: It would probably be a feudalistic society with the superheroes being treated as gods or noble with noble arranged marriages being the closest thing eugenics. In modern times: Superheroes might be encouraged to use their power for good. If they are sufficiently strong the government could legally institutionalized to closely monitor them. Probably away from others like them to prevent an uprising.

You have to choose one of the current top ten to win a Classical game against, and if you lose, or draw, you die. Obviously, you’re going to die. But for the best of the slimmest of chances, who do you choose?
>>97282255Keymer easily. He’s pretty blind tactically and is basically an overtrained mediocrity whose parents had the means of hiring Peter Leko to coach him from a young age. His natural talent is minimal. I would complicate the game as much as possible and hope he fails outside of his classically trained comfort zone and misses a tactic.
