>>97230418indeed. Got it.>>97230387Kino!
>>97230387Ajtes remained locked with the flagellants, but the dragon ran down the fleeing swordsmen and fled off the board, safe from any vengeful cannon fire. The fall of the swordsmen panicked the crossbowmen who fled through the greatswords behind them. >turn 3The empire army tried to counter the assault, the greatswords charged against the lone warhound but it simply fled and they were stranded in front of my chosen knights. In the shooting phase some cannon fire brought down one of the chosen, but there wasnt much else that was accomplished.In combat Ajtres killed a good few flagellants but remained engaged with their remainder. On my turn marauder horsemen charged the flagellants, hoping to help free up my general so that he doesent get ganked by a war altar. The chaos sorcerer cast his first spells of the game, getting off both daemonology buff spells. The chosen knights knew they had to either face the steam tank or the greatswords, and face a charge by whoever they left, and decided that the greatswords offered a juicier target (the scenario also rewarded killing enemy characters). The warpfire dragon tried to launch its bile at the steam tank, but missed and got partials on my chosen knights, which then failed to validate. In combat Ajtes and the marauders finished off the flagellants, while the warhounds finished off the remaining archer and were finally into the cannon. The chaos sorcerer got off his daemonic familiars, the vengeful demons performed far beyond expectation and dragged down SIX greatswords on their own, before the sorcerers poisoned axe killed a further two. The chosen knights did no worse, soundly wiping the entire unit, leaving only a lone captain to impotently swing against them. The BSB was then cut down as he tried to flee from combat. And the knights reformed to face the lone steam tank, which alongside the war altar was all the empire had really left. It was at this point that we called the game.
>>97230469There was definitely a possible mismatch of list power there. I brought my usual list (which I do not consider particularly finely tuned, but which has some very powerful punch in the right circumstances) while my opponent brought a rather unfocused infantry force. The dice, however, also played a big factor. The empire's shooting accomplished very little, and some lucky charges and combats saw me get where I needed and win when I needed. Play was also, however, a factor; the war altar did nothing all game (it didn't even get any powers off), and the empire was forced into permanent reactive play, which did not help them any, 300pts of empire soldiery vs 1000pts of chaos warrior steel tends to go only one possible way. My opponent, however, is also building up some Grand Cathay, and we discussed playing again in the new year. Maybe with me bringing more infantry (I have some forsaken I have meant to finish up, but which will wait for my 30k stuff to be done).Magic remains unconvincing to me, although the daemonology buff definitely helped. Maybe I should stop taking the puppet and take a lore familiar.
What rules are you guys playing? I played during the 5th and 6th edition eras before coming back around. My small, local group plays Warhammer Renaissance which combines the nostalgia with some more balanced improvements. I haven’t really paid attention to GW for 20 years and I see they are still selling a lot of the same Bretonnian minis from the 90s.

its a bit odd how beasts of chaos didnt get a single female model.
>>97230537They wanted to simplify everything so they could balance stuff better, which is obviously very easy when every effect is a variant of d3 mws. While it basically cost the game every ounce of soul it had picked up over 2e/3e, it does look like you can roll up to tournaments with random bullshit and do well.

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/9fzM6128>Need a starter dungeon?

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.

>>97230113>SanityI've never seen a table use the sanity system, which is funny because I had a DM once who run a short "horror" story using a homebrew system of his (he had no idea the sanity system existed).>TaintI've used it in a campaign, but I wouldn't combine it with the sanity system (since they both kinda fit the same niche, with a different flavor).>FlawsI use them every time and my group considers them a "default" choice when making characters.>Spell PointsI have two people in the group that never want to use spell slots ever again after they learnt about spell points, and honestly I don't even mind (when I DM).Anyways, I've used several subsystems (both as a player and a DM), but using ALL of them... yeah no, never thought about it and not really interested to be honest.

Moloch's Fun Park Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game still in a pre-release playtesting phase but with the full release slated for this year. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, it's awesome, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What Trench Crusade is notTC not an excuse for you to discuss IRL religion, history that didn't occur in the game, culture war shit, or discord bullshit on /tg/. Keep it on topic.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/Comment too long.

Would anyone happen to know where I can get the ''Rage of Midas'' by funduk25 or the ''Midas Priest'' by dimomodels? Fags on the TC Discord and FB group won't talk about it because of some stupid fucking rule but they look too damn good to just give up on. Picrel.
>>97230211Picrel is the Midas Priest.
>>97200460Fuck me those look nice. That's one elegant looking warband. Knights of Avarice I gather? Where did you get the three minis in the middle? The priest, the witch and the anointed with the rifle and shield.

Do you prefer systems with a strict class-based martial/caster division or classless systems that allow anyone to dip into anything at the cost of never being great at it?

The Dim Sun short story is now for sale in Burlew's Gumroad store.For the anons that were asking about it a week ago.
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?
>>97229468Because you don't play an anthology, you play the games in it. You read the anthology.
>>97229557I'll have to dig around in an old external HDD to see if I still have the PDF, but it was a bunch of stuff that was like>Your mother has dementia and you have to roleplay explaining to her that her lifestyle is going to have to change>put some stickers and glitter on your face and go out to a bar and pretend to be fairies or some shit>take turns writing nice things on each other with sharpieIt was a profoundly stupid pile of shit.
>>97229685>You read the anthology.So the anthology isn't a game, got it.
>>972294061) the WOD anthology2) its the only thing that meets your definition of an anthology
>>97229406KonoSubaAnyone claiming otherwise simply didn't read KonoSuba
>>97211865how would a rogue prevent a monster from attacking a caster?
>>97229548I was interested in knowing the answer, too. I posted >>97223941, in hopes the person who posted the thread for discussion would have discussed the topic he posted, but the thread died before I could get an answer.In fact, my post was the last one of the thread, which is strange. I don't get why so many people here are allergic to talking about games.

>>97230046Most retards put their tactical squads with only one toe in objective range in preparation of running away when something gets close leaving more than enough room to deep strike a unit on top of the objective.

How has a wife/girlfriend joining the group affected your games?
>>97229283i'm not mad at all, just being silly it could be, who knows?
My ex joined my group, played for a while, she had fun, but she did later tell me after we broke up that my friends would stare at her tits and during the game she tried to force me to kick a sperg out of the group when we played at the spergs house and it was our only option for a variety of reasons. Then told me she'd never liked any of my group and she didnt enjoy playing. Even though she clearly did but whatever. Ironically she had an animal companion I could never find a figurine for until after we broke up they suddenly made several of them for D&D and if the right size category too. I find that ironic.
>>97229306Nah you seem perturbed. Why?
>>97229487i promise im not mad im actually in a really good mood cause its nearly christmaswhat are you getting at that though? if there's something you want to say you can say it
Had good nights where the group brought their women for boardgame night. Even played some heavier games and not just your run of the mill party games. But TTRPGs are pretty much boys only and no girl has shown interest which isn't a problem for me.
How do we fix Steampunk?
>>97196423You really just need to tone down the fashion a little. That's what usually tips it over the edge into being lame.
>>97198341Anything by Jules Verne. Of course, the issue there is that he lived when Steam tech was the newest thing, so at the time his works were just speculative fiction. It's only after steam faded that his works became the basis for a new psudogenre
>>97198980>A good method is to replace coal with some other sort of unobtainium mechanism that can more efficiently power steam engines.Most modern power plants (Nuclear, Coal, Natural Gas, etc.) are in actuality giant steam engines turning electric motors in order to generate electricity. The steam age has not really ended it was just hidden from sight. If you want steam punk to actually work you need to come up with a reason that pumping a high pressure aerosol of liquid vapor through pipes is a better energy transfer method than transmitting electricity through metal wires.
>>97198341You know what, I don't how steampunk fashion/subculture started either. It seems to me it must have started in the US but that's as far as I can go; there must be a reason beyond some music bands adopting the steam era adventurer aesthetics back in the 2000s, but I just don't know what it was>>97230255In Dragonmech it all boils down into "steam powered shit was invented by dwarves and they're so good at it everything just works out", the book just tells you not to overthink it and just enjoy the rideit also implies that the same dwarves that invented steam powered mechs also know about electricity generation and nuclear powered engines, but won't tell anybody about it because it's just too dangerous to let people like humans or goblins get their hands on that kind of knowledge it's also implied that there was an ancient dwarven empire that nuked themselves into the stone age and that's the main reason they keep that kind of tech under wrapsi'm personally fine with that; i just want to run a high fantasy adventure with mechs and sheit
>>97213529That not playing it straight. That is being retarded and not understanding punk is sticking to the man. Making it into /pol/ retardation is not fixing anything
Would love to share some YTers I like to use for inspiration. Looking for anyone you find helpful. Preferably smaller creators and not restricted to 5e. I’ll submit three that I really enjoy while I’m doing prepFirst I’ll submit is Desk and Dorks. The channel is made by a medieval historian and combines his knowledge of subjects to enhance games. I particularly like his take on Bronze Age fantasy and building better town guards
>>97225250>Good>YouTubersNo such thing.Also, don't you have a separate board for this shit?
