>I want GW to bring back Mordheim/BFG/WarmasterWhat is fucking WRONG with these people?Why do they WANT to be sold something they can download a 40-90 page PDF of, and have it turned into a neverending spiral of £40 expansion books, deliberate obsolescence and tinkering from underpaid soimale design staff who can't hold a candle to the OGs?
>>96607012>Wasn't the free company rereleased as a TOW unit?Yeah get you 32 models in the new box so plenty of bits for Mordheim warbands
>>96607036The only slight difference is for Mordheim they came with a Mordheim accessory sprue, and a Middenheim sprue
>>96600835>I'd like more people playing Mordheim overall.But they wouldn't be, not in any meaningful sense.>With a rerelease, there'd be more sculpts and players to convince to try the OG as well.Yeah that doesn't actually happen. What happens is anyone in your oldgame community that's a terminal FOMOfag(they're depressingly common) gets pulled away to the new game and you end up without enough people to keep the group running, so most of the rest of them leave and go play the nushit as well since at least between the newfags and FOMOfags they can get a game playing that, then the hype dies either because GW switches to trickle releases or just shits the bed somehow and most of the new community bail out as well, and the game dies.My local area had three regular Necromunda groups(1 original rulebook, 2 NCE) one of which had been running non-stop since 1998, then GW launched Nucromunda, which caused a big frenzy for about 18 months and killed all the classic game groups, then the novelty locusts and newfags all got sick of it and moved on to the next Thing, now there's one anemic little Nucromunda group that the local GW barely tolerates and attemps to restart an NCE group at a local club have flopped because the grogs don't want to deal with newfags whinging that they can't use their radcannon-wielding flying jetsled cyborg Van Saar or undead Escher in the "boring" original, and the newfags and FOMOtwerps are hyped about whatever the next set of releases is.Not to mention that the new sculpts will almost certainly be 99% Flanderized trash that pisses on the originals, and all the new fluff and rules will be wildly out of step with the old game's tone.Dead Is Better, anyone who believes otherwise is a legitimate retard.
>>96605062Jesus christ stop sucking the tit you absolute fucking mewling fetus. You're playing a game from 25 years ago that hasn't been actively supported for 20 years and has more fan content than was ever published for it by the people who made it originally, and you STILL just mope around whinging you can't buy plastic crack direct from the original supplier?Reptillian Overlords. Highland Miniatures. Old Realm Forge. And those are just ones I remember off the top of my head. The first two do updated versions of the "free company" concept that piss on whatever heinous overdone garbage modern GW would produce, and if you're so lazy or such a poorfag you can't print yourself find someone else to do it for you or buy from the countless printshops that stock their designs.Fuck I hate that GW is almost certainly going to ruin another of the coolest things it's ever done to appease subhuman hobbylets like you.

>>96606504yeah but they do become commoners if they say the gamer word or touch metal
>>96606504>Clerics and Druids do not become commoners when they're out of spells.Stock clerics may as well be because pure-[Divine] is incredibly shallow, though you're right on Druids because Wild Shape is hours/level for most of the "baseline" numbers and (Su) so countering it is incredibly niche, blatant, and usually catches a lot of the Fighter's numbers.>Gish builds also have way the fuck more endurance than Fighters do.It depends how efficient the Gish's buff routine is versus the Fighter's recovery choices.

I want to get into pathfinder 2eR, and I really like playing wizards, but Vancian casting perplexes me to no end. Is there some sort of strategy guide? Like... How many fireballs am I supposed to prepare? Combat can come at literally any moment - how am I supposed to be prepared for the hundreds of spontaneous 'roll initiative''s?Am I just supposed to load the fuck up on panic spells and fireballs and use spell substitution to cast everything as a pseudo-ritual when needed? How the hell am I supposed to account for this shit without having 9 mega lethals in the chamber just so I'm not the most useless babyboy in the world during any surprise combat? How do I go back in time and kill Jack Vance to stop Gary Gygax from reading Dying Earth and copying the stupidest magic system available?
>>96605539It's a skill. You prepare based on intelligent guesstimation of what you expect to encounter and any scouting your party has done or has paid to have done. Modern sóystems turn casters into an 'you can do anything always all the time' wish fulfillment free form invisionfeee forum class, but the risk and thinking were key to the fun back in the day.
The Judge Holden...
>>96605539you do research into the place you're going for the next dungeon crawl and you make educated guesses on what spells would be handy and what spells you can get by with having as scrolls. Your INT is massive, use it fucklechuck. This is why wizards have a reputation of being annoying nerds; not because they're smart or nothing, it's because they grind the adventure to a halt until they know exactly what they're up against.The alternative is a generic always-useful list of spells.
>>96605539Seems like thinking is a little hard for you, maybe this isn't the hobby for you, have you tried playing modern videogames instead? That seems more your speed
>>96605539>Am I just supposed to load the fuck up on panic spells and fireballs and use spell substitution to cast everything as a pseudo-ritual when needed? Yes>How the hell am I supposed to account for this shit without having 9 mega lethals in the chamber just so I'm not the most useless babyboy in the world during any surprise combat? Thinking ahead.Order of the Words Words Words actually explains it decently in its usual rambling fashion.>"A wizard's strength is his ability to prepare different spells each day, but it is also our weakness. It is difficult, even for us, to defend against every possible form of attack simultaneously. Those we cannot block outright, we must evade. Those we cannot evade, we must eliminate pre-emptively."That's the point of having the magic system set up as it is in the first place. Incredible cosmic might, but you still can't just cast "I Win" and call it a day. You have to pre-plan and adapt to whatever is thrown your way. And if you guess wrong, then that's your lesson to better plan next time. That's why D&D created the Sorcerer as a class later, for the people who are willing to give up a chunk of that power for a degree of spontaneity and freedom of choice when it comes to casting what they need at a given point.That said, if you hate vancian magic that much, try a different system other than D&D. There's a shitton of games out there. Neither D&D nor Vancian casting is the end-all be-all to tabletop games.

>>96601531first post best post>>96601587fat post worst post
>>96602376It's gotten so much worse over the years as well. Like when I was a kid we were a bit overweight and we liked our food, but we would meet *before* or *after* going to the GW or club for games to grab a chippie or whatever, and most of us grew up and got gym memberships or an active hobby. Now you walk into most places and there's that hideous stench of too many types of fast food all in the same poorly ventilated room(plus the periodic nauseating wafts from the resident stankmonster when it gets too agitated) and they don't even stand up to play, it's just endless ranks of spherical lardballs sitting around tables emitting a constant sound of hideous open-mouthed chewing as they smear grease everywhere with their stubby fat fingers.I went to a new club in my area recently - they advertised MTG as well as tabletop games which should have been a big enough red flag to put me off, but I was curious - and fucksake, I thought I'd been teleported to America there were so many fat cunts. One of them legitimately came on a mobility scooter ffs.
>>96601139Nothing. I am a fat fuck but I can survive a couple of hours without food.
What do you think could be THE sport in a scifi space game? I believe that spacefaring civilizations should have their futuristic equivalent of soccer, a sport spread everywhere that can be played in a small scale among kids as much as absurdly huge events with tons of money exchanging hands. It should be in zero-g to make it feel space-y and it should be complex to the point people in the outside don't get what's going on.But I don't really have a picture of what it could be like. I've toyed with having sport stars at a station or a big match interupting time sensitive discussions, but I always fear players actually wanting to join in even though that'd be great. Whatever system is fine, I'm interested even if it's not gonna be something I could insert 1 to 1. Purely conceptual ideas are fine too.
Cobra had Rugball. It was a mix of baseball and rugby played with an iron ball and killing was not only allowed but recommended.

>>96603893The Last Deathship off Antares. If you want a Humanity Fuck Yeah tale of triumph over the most utterly retarded alien honor culture ever put to paper- one that would make the lustiest HFY fags from the Avatar days go "okay maybe this is going a bit too far with the aliens being dumb"- you may well enjoy it. It is, however, very silly.
>>96604505VOTOMs first half or 2/3ths is pretty cool once you get used to the not peak animation. Lots of takes on mechs, as if after 0079 a lid was open and they wanted to tell half a dozen ideas about new types of shows centered around mechs. That kinda killed the IP as a franchise tho. it never could offer the same experience again.

Post-Jihad, does the Lyran Commonwealth still go with the reporting name "Galahad" for the Glass Spider?I ask because didn't Defiance Industries reintroduce the original Galahad (the Glass Spider being based on the Galahad is why it was named after the generally extinct mech) through the GLH-3D variant? If that were the case, would the Lyrans still use "Galahad" when discussing the Clan-built derivative of the Galahad or go with "Glass Spider"?
>>96606620It could go either way. Obviously by then everyone knows what the clan names for stuff are. On the other hand, a Glass Spider 1 is an exact copy of the Galahad 2D that is slightly faster. People fighting the clans will just have to keep in mind the tarcomped pulse and PPC variants.
>>96606620The trend is the other way. Clanners largely use IS names in the IS after Bulldog. Like you see nearly all the Jade Falcons saying Thor instead of Summoner by the DA. CGL being a bunch of factchecking fuckups have been trying to reverse that in ilClan for some reason.
>>96606457Supposedly no. Each new generation is bred to be better than the ones that preceded them and their first ToP is their obligation to live up to that ideal, even if the odds are in their favor for the first pairi g at least. I remember that at the Phelan/NastyK ToP, the testees rode Dire Wolves while everyone else was at least five or more tons lighter, and in Alaric's ToP he rode an upgunned 70 ton Blood Reaper against either an Adder or Cougar at half that mass as first opponent, a 60 ton paperskinned Vulture as second, and the 100 ton shitbrick that is the Jupiter as supposed final enemy, though he shot out the Blood Reaper of his opportunistic sibkin instead.
