Does anyone here still play Wixoss? How's the community? How much do I need to learn Japanese?
>>97229532Then reply to the anon who actually played the game instead of constantly spamming vague marketing speak ads for the game every couple days, because for all you shitheads shilling, they got zero (yous) because of course none of you are interesting in playing>>97228434I wouldn't put it past them to eventually add it back in because their MO the last 2 or 3 years has been really heavily creeping the systems for their games. But at the same time as long as it isnt as dumbed down as gundam, true release being it for the time being is not the worst idea. Build a stable base before expanding

They want a few more games on just core getting to grips with it which is fine though I'm okay to jump right in. Honestly I'm a little spooked by the difference in pacing that'll be caused by the M4 promotion requirements and the isostandard market flip thing.

Some of you anons would know better but can Nephandi be redeemed or at least stop being entirely psychotic or is it a hard no?
>>97229857It's a hard no. They sold their soul bro.

>>97229857Usually no, but it's WoD so there's always bullshit exceptions and donut steels. If you want to run it in a story, just handwave some way to fix their Avatar. I think the marauder book even has an example of an archmage doing it.

I had a horrifying idea of taking MTG shit and putting it in dnd in some way, how probable is this?
>>97228724Pretty common thing, yeah
>>97228724old mtg stuff grafts pretty perfectly to oldschool dnd one ruling that i remember is treating the manacost of cards as their level/hd x2, so a 6 mana cost creature would be a 12 hd monster for example, and then you can make micro adjustments of course.I am sure a conversion to 3.5 is possible as well even if it doesnt fit so well. Thematically it's obviously doable with most archetypes featuring race/class or both. I guess one could make planar setting splat with homebrew races and classes depending on the cards of the set without any thematic difficulty.I guess balance can be whatever. you can simply graft cards into existing monsters for some down and dirty conversions .I generally think that the idea has legs. Which plane of magic were you thinking about converting?
>>97228724I'm pretty sure everyone who both plays mtg and d&d has had that idea at some point, they lend into each other pretty well. Which is probably why they did it for real in 5e with...varying results.
Has anyone ever run or thought about running a one-shot D&D and/or Pathfinder game where you used ALL of the optional and niche D20 mechanics?I'm talking Sanity, Taint, Flaws, etc. It'd be a complete cluster fuck, but those can be some of the best games.

>>97229752First of all many of the low CR beasts have extremely overpowered abilities and second of all as a druid you also have access to conjure woodland creatures which allows you to summon 8 fairies which can each cast polymorph and invisibility and shitYou can also just raw polymorphAnyway yeah shit is bustedAn experienced dm will say noOne that isnt might allow you to ruin shit

>>97225739>Where in the 2ed rulebook does it describe the consequences of being on fire? It's not under psychology.Special rules for flame weapons in the armory book>In 2ed you can't fire through other models in the same unit, right? I couldn't find the exception.nope, no exception, although large targets can be sighted over smaller models. In practice it rarely matters because of the severe firing arc restrictions, and because sighting any model in an opposing squad is enough. You also wind up splitting fire a LOT more in 2e than you'd think. Losing split fire entirely was actually one of the bigger complaints when the edition change rolled out. Letting you fire through models in the same squad was partly a quick-fix for that. A whole bunch of the tweaks in 4e were trying to get around people using precise unit placement and range fuckery to "snipe" exactly the models they wanted out of an enemy unit, as well as prevent the defender from playing shell games with wounds to avoid losing specific models.

>>97225200> You can hide the Avatar in a unit because he has no such rule.Bitch please. He's a giant flaming avatar of a war god, he can't even hide at night.
>>97225200Don't have my 4th ed book on hand but it could be a technical ruling in the sense no one ever tried so it didn't come up. Might be that the avatar counts as a daemon and they can't join units iirc but I don't remember if they were keywording things like that yet.How did the Court of the Young King work? That seems like the most working example of maybe having a monstrous creature daemon in a unit of regular sized models.
>>97229377Court of the Young King is a retinue, the Avatar is a part of it like any IC.>>97228851That's how it works. Tyranid Monstrous Creatures are different because they have the Shoot the Big Ones rule, the Avatar doesn't.

>>97229905>I'm pretty sure Not off to a good start >>97229901Thanks for letting me know you're never played
>>97229864None that I know of; again, if we agree that wizards are as rare in a Napoleonic setting as in your average fantasy setting and not so ridiculously powerful that any other kind of support for infantry would be pointless in comparison then it's fine, otherwise I just can't see any reason to have anything but them around to hit enemies from a distance if that's all you need to crash opposing armies,as in here >>97229646Napoleonic armies with a wizard on each side doing their thing is an interesting idea; one with full platoons of them is just regular high tantasy
>>97229936I just double checked, they can shoot two kinds of missiles, a fireball equivalent to a large catapult and a lightning bolt equivalent to a field gun. They do get other spells though and are better than a literal catapult because of them. But the fireball itself lands like a catapult.
>>97229601If you accept that a wizard can exist in a setting with guys with swords n shit without invalidating them entirely then you should be able to accept a wizard existing in a setting with guns n shitm Unless you are being intellectually dishonest and willfully obtuse just to have an argument because you are bored and crave human interaction. So again, fuck off cretin.

>>97227995Which games are being talked about, then?Where are the posts talking about how this setting has been used for actual play, and about how its presented challenges are being overcome?All I see is shit that could easily be applied to a non-interactive medium, aside from the kvetching about being asked to talk about games.
>>97229479>never want to talk about actual gameOh, we tried, multiple times. Don't forget that games are made of settings and systems, and you keep refusing the former so it goes nowhere with you. But thanks for once again trying to distract from your L, and once again for your concession.
>>97228287>The point was that disasters and falls in general are common enough in every age and every society that attributing all modern fantasy to the roman empire is socially and culturally retarded.That would be the case if fantasy wasn't predominately medievalesque. But it is.
