>>97764288Going off that picture, do officer models like the ward/assault preceptors do things? I really like the officer models for Spires but kind of care less now that they made using them optional.
Why did they decide to make everything sci-fi
Simple rule to improve and balance wizards in OSR games: they can only memorize one casting of a given spell per day. You have 3 third level slots? You can cast one Fireball, not 2 or 3. Don't know any other 3rd level spells? Better go find some spellbooks. Hope you make your % chance to learn spell rolls (I won't bother addressing faggots who let wizards automatically learn new spells). God forbid you have to get more creative with your casting.
>>97816374>no reason why the rod of disintegration isn't in the first dungeon.Because someone would already have it if it was
>>97815205They are dumb. There are other ways to balance casters that don't involve half the party being underleveled or having to use shitty XP-based progression like it's an MMO where the players can fuck off to kill 1 XP rabbits for 60 sessions to level up.>Skill Points are dumbThey aren't dumb, but they could have been handled better I think to prevent modifiers from getting out of hand so quickly. That said, I fixed this easily with my overhauls of 5.5's classes, Rogues get 6 proficiencies, Fighters get 5, other full martials get 4, half-casters get 3, full casters get 2, and you pick any skills you like from the list. Bards also uniquely get 3 given their weird support caster-rogue shit (but they lose access to Jack of All Trades. That is instead given to Rogue at level 1).
>>97816374Verisimilitude isn't realism, it's internal consistency.
>>97801330And that's why 5e players like yourself should be banned.
>>97816014>Now do the same in SW>[epic clever battle sequence that lets them add up to kill the enemy golem]I wish it worked that way, but unfortunately what happens instead is, someone with a hypertuned damage build rushes the golem in melee screaming and gets 5 aces and kills the golem with like 40 damage while the rest of the table laughs hysterically.I really wish it worked like that though. I can't remember the last time my Savage Worlds group actually used the trick fighting or test of wills rules. All they do is Wild Attack because it's objectively the best option to get 2 bonuses for 1 downside and usually their Parry is so high that even if they do Wild Attack the penalty doesn't actually affect them.

>>97817975Army trait rules were a mistake. Back in my day all a sub-faction did was determine which colour you painted your models, and people liked it. All legion traits have done is lead to constant whining and complaints from entitled little shits like you, about how their army's trait isn't strong enough or doesn't have the "flavour" they think it needs to have, or whatever else. The only other thing it cause is WAACfags flocking to whatever is the legion with the currently strongest trait and pretend that they always liked that legion, honest, they just didn't get around to painting that legion before.

There are rumours that the 11th Edition Armageddon box will have new Primaris Librarian in it. That would be nice, as there is only one sculpt right now who is generic and not wearing tactical dreadnought armour. I was considering trying to convert Tigurius to be a Blood Angel Librarian for a little variety, and while looking over the parts I'd need to modify, something struck me:I know the curled ram's horns have been part of the official Librarian badge since First Edition, but the version on Tigurius's banner seemed *really* familiar!
>>97817977>>97817952I'm asking because nearly everything I've read on the topic claims that around 80% of all fur (that includes fur for brushes) comes from fur farming. It's mostly from China and Russia, too, so you can imagine how utterly revolting the conditions and the entire process are. I sincerely can't even recommend checking this; it's one of the most vilest fucking things I've ever seen, and I'm saying this as someone who has seen plenty of dead people.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128Comment too long.
