PAY UP, PIGGIES
>>96459396My newfag ass finally caught on when GW introduced the Tervigon and rules that my local WAACfag player shit out literally 500 pts of free gaunts per 1850 (which was the tourney standard then) game.
>>96459703It's like being caught in a plastic fucking pyramid scheme.I bought a model that forces me to buy more models to use it. Not even buy the models I need, I need to go out and buy TEN models I don't need for the one model I do. I need to go out and buy bags of crackerjacks, throw out the crackerjacks, and keep the prize inside.The extra disgusting part is that they've announced it this early not for consumer benefit, but to create a panic boom in their sales as people rush to buy up old stock.
>>96454934>Iirc the reason they axed specialist games was logistics.How do you mean?
>>96456975So is Frostgrave, but it still offers branded models for easy entry.Having to convert models from kitbashed medieval and WW1 kits or ordering prints from scattered STLs is for people who are already in the hobby, not total outsiders.
>>96459833They fucked up the "ship the games from Nottingham to the actual stores, especially outside UK" part of selling them.
You know the drill, post you terrain collection, WIP terrain, or terrain inspiration!!!!

>>96460931>light crossbows Assuming you mean hand crossbows?
>>96462073the Crossbow Expert feat mention both so noAnyway, any ideas on the rest?
>>96462109The light crossbow doesn't have the Light property. Ignoring Loading and Firing in Melee work with all crossbows, but Dual Wielding only benefits hand crossbows. You want hand crossbows (plural) or a heavy crossbow (singular). Light crossbow is what a character uses if they're not good at crossbowing.Your gloomstalker is fine and functional and hits the main points. Get dex to 20 with ASI or two more half feats.Dex Fighter is probably the best ranged weapon user, but not by so much that you shouldn't play a ranger if you want to. Fighter gets the most from Great Weapon Master with longbow/heavy xbow (Crossbow Expert feat tax) to boost damage output, though Dreadful Strike and spells help the gloom stalker up keep with the extra attacks the fighter gets.
>>96462218Sounds good, I'll stick with the Gloom Stalker if the damage difference isn't too bigWhat do you think of Hunter, better or worse than the Gloom Stalker with ranged weapons? oh it depends on the situation

>>96457890Thanks, bro. D&D autists are lucky to have their series be popular enough where you can type things such as "how to play 3.5e" and catch someone up to speed within an hour. I will do what that guy on /d/ did and make a giant monster girl enemy.
>>96461405>I'll bite, anon. What's your experience with it? First glance at the main system puts in mind of the old WEG Star Wars game.It's simpler than the old WEG D6. In short, you just take the two highest values as your results. It's over all clean and smooth to run, Combat feels natural. It's cheap enough so just get it and try it.There's a third book, the Black Star Companion that rounds out the system. With all three books it really does feel like a combined arms type game without getting bogged down with an overly complex system.
>>96456766>Sometimes players just refuse to turn tail and enjoy the chase.This is why horror games need Stress (or "Panic" or "Sanity" or whatever you wanna call it) rules. Players aren't gonna play scared.
>>96459468Ooohhhh that's a neat little video, thanks!Also, good rec.
>>96461405>Hey, MektonBro! Good to see you around, friend. How have you been?Hey anon! Thanx man. To quote Megatron in 1986/2005, "I still function...!" I'm STILL tinkering with my game. Real life keeps getting in my damn way.>>96460573Say, those look worth a peek. Thanks for sharing!

>>96461954Despite Halloween being my favorite holiday, I may just boycott it over this shit. Christmas is already unbearable. I don't want corporations to ruin everything I love.
>>96462254One could argue that Halloween is already saturated and ruined, so ruining it further isn't really possible. It exists in corporate awareness mainly as an excuse to sell candy, pre-fab costumes, and risque "costumes". This is just to jab the crowd that thinks there's a "War on Christmas" and thinks that Halloween is "Satanic". Because they have it coming.
I updated this Pentex Ferectoi picture! I improved her environment suit, and the designs of her fomori handler and Nephandi "teacher". I also refined the design of her centipede pet.
>>96462254You should be more nervous. Halloween is the only fit rival to Christmas, animatronic Santas would already be here if Halloween costumes weren't occupying the shelf space, so what is Christmas planning that's provoking Halloween like that?
>>96462273>so ruining it further isn't really possiblePeople said the same about anime. They were wrong.
It's supposedly going to be dropping here soon (it was supposed to drop this summer, but apparently they needed more time to cook). I went to their Twitter page, and it only has 120 followers, so I'm feeling a little nervous. Worst case scenario, I can pinch off lore that they've promised to include if they completely butcher the actual game mechanics and shoehorn things into a better system if I have to. I hope I don't. Anyone familiar with Skydawn games, or are they a "literally who" of the TTG scene?
>>96420096Wait, so it's not just og Phantasy Star? I'm pretty sure these guys come from PSO.
>>96458896They're pulling content from PS 1~4 as well as PS0 & PSOBB. I think you could probably bend and shape the content to fit PSO2 and other media as well if you wanted.PSO2 & NG are very fast-paced, though. Practically DMC-style combat. I don't know if you could translate that same feeling of frenetic action to a tabletop game. Compared to the slower and more methodical PSO & PS0 anyway.
>>96459191I see. I wouldn't really mind the system not trying to simulate PSO2's combat as long as it had cool rules for the classes and the monsters, especially for the Dark Falzs (Falzes?) and other bosses.
>>96458896>>96459191It would be a massive missed opportunity, if not outright disservice to the IP, if the game didn't acknowledge Online.
>>96459728Only as a necessary evil!

>>96461867Oh those are perfect shields. Thank you!
Do yall think I have rnough Weird War 2 stuff?
I vaguely remember some discussion about Warmaster Revolutions. At this point it is an /awg/ thing, right?Any experts here able to decipher the contents of WGA's Boneblades to know if they are good for starting an undead army?https://wargamesatlantic.com/collections/all/products/boneblades
>>96462171>Any experts here able to decipher the contents of WGA's Boneblades to know if they are good for starting an undead army?Not an expert, but it's literally just ten bases' worth of skeleton infantry with some command stands and a pile of skulls. For Vampire Countts you could paint some of them green to be an Ethereal Host and maybe put gold trim for Grave Guard but beyond that you need some other options to have a viable Warmaster army. At standard points values one box is about 300 points or a bit more than an eighth of an army. If you stretch it with Ethereals you could squeeze two boxes up to about a third of one.For Fell Bats Reaper sells some cheap vampire bats that'd work with a little chopping and sculpting to change the tombstones into rocky outcrops or ruined buildings. https://www.reapermini.com/search/bat/sku-up/03355https://www.reapermini.com/search/bat/sku-up/07071 (Bones version of the pewter one above)https://www.reapermini.com/search/bat/sku-up/07058and this dude https://www.reapermini.com/search/bat/sku-up/03902 could be a fun Winged Nightmare. Tomb Kings use more skeleton infantry than the VC. Again it's ~300 points out of 2000. I'd put money on WGA having a skeleton cavalry/chariot and an archer set in the pipe, which would flesh out most of their line infantry options. A bone giant is just a 28mm skeleton and a bunch of people do passable siege engines and sphinxes.
>>96461920I'd say 2-5 more squads/vehicle groups so that you can substitute some of your other models while trying different compositions and you are golden. Maybe add some infantry mortar teams? Or other crew served weapons.

>>96444624If you're still around I am interested. Missed your post the first time around
>>96461941I dunno why people freak out over the discord like they don't have an entire page in the book ranting about how playing the game itself is inherently antifacist action, it's designed from the bottom-up to promote gay communism, and that they apologize for being unfortunately white, straight, and not retarded.They say outright, the game was made to "help people fight back". Not to be fun or anything silly like that lol"in solidarity" fucking christ. This isn't even a game, it's a communist daycare center with gay robots.
>>96462094It's set in the diaspora, predominantly in a colony I named Sterling, as you can see on the hex map overview I created here >>96444624The basic summary is: After Seccom collapsed, there were a bunch of holdover revolutionaries and random nobodies looking for work that IPS-N were keeping track of, as well as leftover colonists from a failed settlement they still had tabs on. Northstar decided to hedge their bets and think long term - they rounded them all up together and gave them an opportunity to colonize a valuable new earth-like planet they found far out there, sent a colony package with them and basically told them "Alright, you'll be on your own and in exchange for your own independent colony we get dibs on economic development in the system you'l be living in. We'll come back in a century or two, hope to see you making good development progress. Good luck!" While the corporate was handling internal affairs in the upheaval aftermath of Seccom.It's been a couple decades since then and they've established themselves, but the planet turned out to be really harsh: If it's name "Tempest" didn't give it away it's got quite the active weather systems, and even without that the wildlife is quite nasty and belligerent on average too. Thus, it's been slow going in terms of development, but progress is still happening, albeit slowly.Unfortunately, there's numerous other problems besides tempest herself: there's rumors of pirates lurking in the system, as well as a growing disgruntling in the colony. See, the two distinct factions: union revolutionaries and the original colonists don't exactly see eye to eye when it comes to independence, governance, community and whatnot, and a hefty amount of unrest is brewing. It's not gotten hot just yet, but a spark might cause things to start igniting.That about does it, anything you want me to elaborate on or give feedback for?

>>96460365>Fantasy mecha, yea or nay?>They're very cool, I fucking love them, but the more I think about it, less I'm sure of what it adds to a tabletop game.A PC Fighter in a mecha can operate at the level of an enemy combat formation, but to enter the dungeon he has to get out of the mecha (it doesn't fit in the dungeon). This allows the same character to operate on the level of mass combat and small group tactics.
