>>97230023Perry has the best poses but I think Victrix has better sculpts.
Evening lads. Is there a pdf of the 3rd edition Bolt Action rules floating about? I checked the mediafire above but it's just 1st & 2nd
>>97230976Victrix Napoleons are their absolute worst kits, have zero options, and the sculpts are not good at all.
>>97230976>Victrix>better sculptsVictrix fanbois really are retarded.>>97228585No, that was zimmeritt's job. The concrete was for extra protection, some US tank units used it too.>>97229613Skirmish or battle lines? Any rules that work in 15mm/28mm etc. will work.
Battleships are apparently back in business as of last night. How will this affect modern warship gaming?
This is a highly niche question, but: what's the best TTRPG anthology you've ever read, and what made it good in your opinion?
>>97230723Wizardy[/spoier].So just like 99% of Nip media that reference any game at all. But if you ever played any, you will instantly spot it
>>97231230>WizardryAs in, the video game series?
>>97231255Yes.For reasons unknow, it's FUCKHYUUUGE in Japan, and they keep making their own, new installments for past 15 years, if not longer.Almost all Nip media that is referencing RPG, is always referencing Wizardy, rather than any actual TTRPG. But since Wizardy is, well, Wizardy, it's very easy to think this is either some stuff from old editions of DnD (or MMORPG stuff)
>>97229406Pic related.That said it is the only ttrpg that I'm aware of which was published as an anthology. Sure they're great games, but there aint that much competition.
>>97231734If you count these, you could also count White Wolf's Adventure, Aberrant and Aeron Trinity.
Post-Apocalyptic Fantasy? >A world rocked by cataclysm>landscapes filled with chaos and wonder>mage storms>An enduring mystery; what happened, and what happened in the intervening centuries?>An atmosphere of hope and renewal, as heroes rise, and mysteries are investigated.>Darkness and evil await in corners and ruins, like pools of dank water waiting for the sun>the brink of a New Age Interesting setting? What elements would you include? I'm just gonna throw zombies at them.
RIFTS(tm) is the best, purest post-apoc science fantasy game ever made. None can ever come close.
>>97229444>>97231253Forgot to mention that there is a DLC for the game, which is started by talking to a lady standing on a pier at night in the starting area (Cassardis). Highly recommend that you do not even speak to her until later in the game. To keep it as spoiler-free as possible, you can talk to her after you have seen a cutscene involving a very large hole and have explored it. Hope this helps! Game is currently $4.79 on Steam.
>>97231276>Ignoring games that don't have stories doesn't make it so games need stories.Oh, sorry, did you want to have a discussion on backgammon? Or did you enter what is clearly a thread about tabletop RPG settings, and then throw a bitch fit because people want to talk about setting stuff for their games? You know exactly how much of an uncreative, unimaginative loser you are, that's why you've spent months coming into the threads to cry about them, Wilbur. Get over it.
Had several campaigns in a setting loosely inspired by Tekumel.>mankind took to the stars in "seed ships">passengers are suspended in cryosleep>ship AI autonmously searches for inhabitable planets>purges natives via drones from orbit>terraforms the planet according to human needs>installs infrastructure for human utopia On the campaign world the natives offered more resistance than expected and made the ship crash while it was still in the first phase. Autonomous drones still managed to bomb them into the stone age. Majority of the human cargo was killed in the crash and with the now defunct ship was unable to rebuild a high tech society while it was still being pestered by autonmous planetary defense systems. Games were set at different periods after the arrival. Humanity, AI and Alfarri (natives; sue me) have formed and sometimes intermingled in several different cultures.
>>97219278This is like word for word 4e's Points of Light/Nentir Vale setting. Even including the zombies since the first 1-30 adventure path was about the demon prince of undeath trying to assassinate/absorb the goddess of death so he could control everything that ever dies.

>>97228517The Nemean Lion. I like the fact its a huge ass lion with nigh invulnerable skin and is intelligent. Moreso that Grappler Baki has become the baseline of what I consider "mundane" strength in a fantasy setting so pic related would be how I'd imagine the Nemean Lion to be.

>>97230987Hellstar Remina technically fits all of those characteristics
>>97230987Norse Myth has it all, but it won't be a cheap build.
>>97230987Viking Saga
>>97230987That's pretty much most power fantasy jump.

>Session 1 of buddy's new campaign>It's clear he hasn't read the rules at all and is totally winging it
>>97230694nice samefagging, op.
>>97230753That's unfortunately, but they are trying and if you gently nudge them towards actually reading the GMing section in their system of choice, they will hopefully learn eventually. GMing is fucking hard and even if you are well versed in the rules, it is still something you can only get good at through lots of practice and lots of fucking up.I remember having to fuck up half a dozen campaigns that either fizzled or crashed and burned before I ran a campaign so good that it kept going for 2 straight years.
>>97231610If someone doesn't have the ability to read the rules on their own then they are not cut out to GM
>>97231712They're just over eager. You don't have to handhold them, just strongly encourage them. It would help if you actually talked to them and told them that you have no interest in nannying them through every session.
>>97231764I've been begging people to read the rules for every game we've ever played for years. It's just a genetic thing I think

How do you like your mutants?Do you like them looking more like anthros or circus freak shows?
>>97230789It also helps if OP has something he actually wants to discuss, like Mutant-themed games, or games with cool Mutation mechanics, or something. Not just...>what do you guys think about mutants?
>>97230856Only when someone comes in the thread and says it's not
>>97230902Mutants can apply to any setting I'm more focused on what are the look preference that people want
>>97231280>I'm more focused on an aspect that's probably the most worthless to playing tabletop gamesCool. You'll fit right in on this board.
>>97231280Look preference is based on the game and the premise. No point in doing Furry mutants in a Mad Max-themed game, and no point doing tumormen in a TMNT game. If you're going to come here, you need to know the barest details of what playing a TTRPG is actually like.

>>97231344Yeah, Ewoks aren't cute cuddly teddybears. They're tribal hunterns that share their environment with a lot of dangerous wildlife, so they wouldn't survive if weren't fearsome fighters. But they're still a bunch of primitives armed with bows and arrows going against guys in full body armor and and science fiction beam guns. That should have been an incredibly one-sided fight.The difference in tech level between Ewoks and stormtroopers is far higher than the difference between 1800s European nations and African tribes, and you can see how well that ended for the Africans.
Finally figured out a way to get SSD-scale ships in a chart without making it stupidly huge. I shrunk down the Xyston (and the regular ISD i added for scale) down to 25% of the size i used for my other chart.
>>97231563This. Phantom Menace did the same concept but better by making the Gungans actually have some technology. They are primitive by the standards of the setting, but not literal cave people with bows and arrows.
>>97231599I was going to add the Mega-Class Star Dreadnought from TLJ but everyone seems to just want to collectively forget that thing even existed, so there are no good top-down shots/renders of it. Can't really blame them though.
>>97228858the problem with underworld is it's not sure what it wants to be and I think there is a reason for thatit feels like they just made a 45 minute asajj ventress animated special (mostly to explain how she's alive and/or test the waters to see if she's marketable) (I can make a solid argument for this if anyone is interested) but then realised they could just chuck in a cad bane story, cut it up, and sell it as a tales seriesventress was basically all over the marketing and the main selling point for underworld, cad bane feels like an afterthought
