Have you ever roleplayed a character with a spouse around, not just one that died in their backstory? Did they join in as an actual character and if so, how did your gm balance you having an extra helper?
My current PF2e character for Season of Ghosts, my tanuki rogue, has a husband and two adult children. They haven't seen a lot of screentime right now, with her husband out-of-town, but she dotes on her children sometimes during downtime.
>>96476838Gamma World, party was negotiating an alliance with a city of mutants. Their representatives were pretty human looking, just blue with prehensile tails. They wanted someone to bind our two peoples with a marriage with their chief's daughter and I agreed. Turned out they had all sorts of mutants and the chief and daughter were mutant skunks. Jokes were made, but she was actually pretty cool and took to adventuring with the party. There wasn't much to balance with her being around, she could handle an extra gun in a fight and was a good scavenger but but nothing broken. By the end she and my pc settled down and had a few hybrid kids after finding some advanced medtech that allowed it.
>>96476838Our characters ended up getting married in game after we got married in real life. Sadly, our DM died so we didn't continue the story out of respect.
>>96499819Sorry for your loss.
>>96476838In a Dnd 3.5 West Marches style discord I played a spontaneous retainer to a half-vampire sent on a suicide mission by her family who saw her as a monster (My character didn't know for quite some time). She also outlived several generations of her kin, but had fine control over her thirst (The PC willingly dealt with having penalties).It was the two of our characters in the region, which each region having different groups and DMs. So my character accepted the paying job and status of retainer (Dragon-Shaman and fighter) while they played a bard stormsinger (mf rolled 30+ damage lightningbolts). Our characters combined covered for each other in interesting ways, resulting in the two becoming a power couple in the discord. They also had some drama, but ended up getting together and getting married, with my character learning about her vampiric secret beforehand.Image related, art we got made
The spicier the better. I'll start to get the ball rolling: MTG, DnD and Warhammer are actually good for the hobby. They get new people started in this hobby and they keep the trend chasers contained and away from the rest of the hobby.Appealing to the normie masses is a necessary evil in order to keep what you love afloat. Even if it comes with the negative baggage of doing so.Generals are good for /tg/.

>>96497596>>96497524Everytime I see someone as ignorant as you I automatically adopt the opposite talking point and repeat it whenever I see the topic come up. I have no dog in this race either, I don't play rpgs, I just hate sanctimonious faggots.
>>96503238Hitler like you would be too stupid to play tabletop games.>>96504489He probably would lost anyway as the way the Nazis won was with quickly crushing foes.
>>96500937You are replying to the same poster three times kek.
>>96504489>AllowingTo be fair, he didn't. They explicitly undermined him and disobeyed orders.Hitler and Stalin both experienced these issues throughout the war, though Stalins issues with his own generals had nearly disappeared by '44 when the red army had thoroughly decimated the Wehrmacht and was just making its way to Berlin. What Hitler really should have been doing is executing high ranking Wehrmacht officers back in France.

That am not greatest thread! Hello!
I need new ideas for dice jail that aren't up my ass.
>>96495671I'm sick of the casual community having sway over the smaller, competitive scene. Its bullshit because some of my favorite games ARE during a tournament since everyone is so accommodating and interested in maintaining the spirit of the game.

>>96504720meant for >>96504693
>>96504693>>96504712seems like the widowmakers being a "symbol of defiance" despite not being anything like that in life seems more like early installment weirdness, because we know the symbol wasn't removed from clan recordswolverines would definitely be a more logical symbol for anti-clan independents
>>96504744Widowmakers highlighted a lot of flaws in the clan system, especially in the way they got railroaded into absorption. You can point out many ways in which the council was blatantly unfair and biased and didn't even so much as pretend to check themselves.

>>96493688Is this considered a spearhead or just a "race" set?I feel that comparing other sets is way less minis, however point wise i can see the golem and war machine being the ones who suck the points outAnd as every other anon mentioned, i fucking hate how they shave some of the chaos dorfs or not show their beard>>96504505Guess the hobgrots will be fodder and objective campers?
>>96504505I'm confused, do the dwarf warriors come in 5's or 10's? It seems like only 5's, so 1 wound each is kinda pitiful. Getting the feeling the centaur spam will be the way people play. The construct profile looks good on it's face but the averages on it are pretty eh.
>>96504636Even ironbreakers come in groups of 10, so i doubt the chorfs will consider themselves below dorfs10 chorfs for maybe 100-120 points?

>uh, no, akshually, hit points are NOT meat points, and the only damage a character AKSHUALLY receives is when they reach zeroThen how do homing spells work exactly?
>>96503968That twink has less meat than a normal man. That's what happens when a less than meaty man takes a couple points of damage, I guess
>>96503988nah that's a level 20 fighter after going down to 30/250 HP (he's still ok)
>>96503979>"Yes. I've honed my meat through countless battles to superhuman levels of resilience. It takes powerful magic to put it back into place."
>>96503968this is a narrative you made up for your game thothere's nothing that suggests a fighter could bear such an injury and still fight without qualms
>>96504755the rules suggest so
8th edition effectively killed this setting and franchise. The setting progression destroyed it all man. How would we fix Warhammer?Arch was right Outercircle was right Gamza was right
>>96504453Comparison soo bad I'm starting to wish the "capeshit" and "muh MCU" anon came in.
>>96504637>Muh MCUFirst of all, Batman is DC, retardsecond of all, its an analogy not "OMG THIS IS LIKE TAHT ONE TIME IN MCU"
>>96504657>Thinks I called Batman MCUYou right now
>>96504637it's a perfect comparison for what GW did with Primaris. And it's precisely why GW doesn't deserve any money now. If Primaris is the best they can come up with these days for a model refresh, why even bother playing this dogshit game?
>>96504714It's a shitty comparison because it cuts off the part where Bruce Wayne goes "if he can do it, I can do it" and then gets also bigger.>GW doesn't deserve any money nowNow??? You shouldn't be spending a dime since almost a decade ago
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?
>>96498061Forgot to post.
>>96498061I would probably try some homebrew stuff so I wouldn't be tied to explicit lore >>96309683. I'm hoping the corebook will have a lot of material to supplement homebrew stuff.>artworkLooks better than what I drew in highschool.
>>96496904The Techer is one of my favorite renditions of a magic warrior/gish in games. Just beat the shit out of everyone with an elemental infused with a want that conspicuously looks like a sword or a mace and fall back on normal ranged spells whenever I needed. The Phantom using the staff as a scythe and the Etoile turning the wand into a huge laser were also really fun.
>>96498429I really hope they give us something for the scion classes. They were all fun as hell.
>>96499837It always saddened me how we didn't got Scion classes for the other weapons. I feel like a monk-like class with the fists and the jet boots was something a lot of people hoped for but it unfortunately never happened.
Am I missing anything or do Free/Far Traders flying off a C or D starport really always have a 25% chance or so of misjumping? In Traveller Classic, that is, the 1977 rules.> Throw 12+ for a misjump to occur, DM+5 if within 100 planetary diameters, +3 if using unrefined fuel (except military and scout ships), -1 if using refined fuel, +2 if operating beyond the required date for annual maintenance.Meaning as I said, on a 9+ on 2d6, misjump. And then class C and D starports, offering only unrefined fuel, are like 42% of all randomly generated starports? And then 50% chance the hex they pop up in has nothing by raw.That all sounds fucking painful, unless you somehow stick to A and B ports. I guess that explains all those low population planets.Are there other modifiers I missed somewhere? Something like, god the gas giant presence roll that's just a random line in book 2 instead of being in book 3. The 1981 rules are so much kinder about it, damn.Traveller thread I guess.
>>96498250>I just wonder how much they played with this at all at the time they wrote it, or if their players only flew to A and B ports like I said in the OP.I have no idea but I would assume a lot of C and D starport travel took place. I can't believe that many people would enjoy a game where misjump party wipes off a single die roll were so common.
Where does one even find a game of traveller? I've been interested in it for some time
>>96503567Buy or download the books and run it, friendo.
>>96494640Play Mongoose 2e instead.ayylmao
>>96494617Well this was another unexpected find while going through the several boxes i picked up for dirst cheap at an estate sale.The core 3 black books of Traveller.Pretty sure these are 1st edition as says 1977. If theres more I have not seen it yet. Currently reading through. Working through chargen to see how it plays out.So the career section really is fairly lethal on PCs. Two Scouts with not bad stats croaked on their 2nd tours. Merchant with ok stats somehow made it through a full set of tours and scored a commission each time.Bout as far as got so far.
Every single 10th edition player deserves to have their flesh flensed from their bones while they seethe at the sight of people happily playing older editions in front of them.

Trench Crusade General - /trench/Weird love 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 not TC 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?

>>96504093most people use the Hero Forge workshop module or whatever. Has every model for all the factions. They're not "official" but they're darn close.Also Yes scene is active as loathe as I am to say it, the official discord has people looking for pick up games regularly. Also they run campaigns through there as well if you want.
>>96504610>as loathe as I am to say itelaborate
Sorry my fellow /trench/ers I have been gone a minute since my last posting of my Purple Fida'i. Today, I bring you, the bull.
>>96504614Oh I think discord communities especially ones that hold lots of important information suck is all. They're good people actually that i've met and played.

Will it be bad?
>>96496486>This, as opposed to Aabria as DM who constantly shat on Carrero (and only her), almost bringing her to tears.What prompted that? I don't know who these people are or what their deal is.
>>96501307NTA but Arabia was railroding hard and forcing Carrero to bring her character down lower and lower and forced her to wear a crown of LolthOn top that she also kept having her make rolls for no reason and when she tried to have her character do something interesting or creative she got mad and told her to stop running her game (in a joking manner but you could hear the seethe)
>>96501363Why is she even a GM then?
>>96501402We have no idea other than that she's mica burton's token black girl replacement
>>96499689That'd explain why they got rid of Orion. Everything he did, others in the group did and worse. But they hadn't "made it" yet, he was likely the only one still treating it like their real game.
