I want to get into some fantasy wargaming, which one of these is better?
>>96490104Right is better if you want to play tabletop gamesLeft is better if you want to play video games but LARP as a tabletop player
>>96490104>which one of these is better?Oathmark.
>>96490104Neither.
>>96490104Both are horrible in their own waysAoS has insanely dumbed down rules that make it pretty boring to do anythingOld World has just insanely cancer army comps that if you're playing with the wrong people you will have 0 fun because all they do is run cavalry and monsters instead of actual armies.
>>96490104There are dozens of better fantasy wargames. IF you have to stick with GW games due to your local scene being GW-slop only, AoS is better.Still, you will play whatever your local community is playing anyway. Unless you are the one jump-starting the local fantasy wargaming scene, your preferences don't matter.
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? All the files are free online, but are split between the website and the discord. They have all been collected here for your convenience: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQ Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I'm temped to kitbash more Swiss Trench Ghosts.Pic related counts as Death Commando.
>>96491841out of curiosity, what defines them as 'Swiss'??
>>96491841Looks a little more 40k than Trench Crusade. probably because of the glowing bits and the pistol that looks kind of like one of the newer bolt pistols from this angle.
>>96491841Definitely feels more sci-fi, and way too clean. Maybe it'd feel right if he were covered in rust and gore? Ultimately it's agnostic and you can paint whatever minis you want, it's just a touch off
>>96491654Yeah, absolutely. From my experience aside from some dedicated melee heavy hitters (which most faction can only have a small number of), ranged weapons definitely tend to be stronger than melee in TC, do you need plenty of terrain if you don't want them to dominate. Also, it looks cool and opportunity to use jumping/climbing rules is always fun >>96491841He does look cool and the paintjob is very nice, but I do agree with others that the camo and weapons make him look more modern or even futuristic
>>96490875
>>96471901this thread again?
>>96481601Same, especially if they are eye-less. It adds a certain atmosphere to the outfit.
>>96490995Why not? It's always neat to see cool masks, helmets, armour and what-not.

>>96483761Could also continue taking prc class levels but without gaining bab, saving throws, caster levels, etc.Tangential, but has anybody tried an alternative to these E(X) where instead of capping levels you just cap spells?Stuff like not evolving apellcasting past 4th circle or the like.Maybe continue gaining slots for use with metamagic but spells beyond 5th circle just aren't acessible to the players?Something like that.
>>96486820>Could also continue taking prc class levels but without gaining bab, saving throws, caster levels, etc.Well, it's not as straightforward since for the game to work properly you need scale anything to 6 HD. So if say you have damage scaling ability in prestige class it needs to be kept close to what it is at level 6. >Tangential, but has anybody tried an alternative to these E(X) where instead of capping levels you just cap spells?That's called banning full casters. It actually works perfectly fine. Personally I used the full caster ban together with defense bonus as dodge bonus and armor as DR (including natural armor) - it was pretty nice though party had some close calls at the start due to not wrapping their head around the DR part. It's kinda hard to switch when you got accustomed to normal AC and then you find out that some monsters can get for way longer, especially if you don't manage to whack them with a two-hander. Owlbear becomes AC 12 with DR 5/- and at the start of the game that could be pretty brutal since that basically cuts incoming damage in half. Even a great wyrm dragon is not as bad since while DR 36/- is nasty by the time you fight them you have a lot of options for dealing with it. P.S. That Damn Crab absolutely rapes everyone with armor as DR since it gets DR 9/-
>>96436181>So, last thread, it was suggested that you should ban core for a balanced game with the exception of core feats but what about spells? Wouldn't classes like the shugenja, warmage, healer, etc. lose out a lot while psionics would remain untouched.I hear this argument a lot in this general, and I always find if funny: >Just ban most of the AD&D & FR themed content that is the majority of the reason you're not running the other systems you likeis just never going to be a compelling fix for me. (Though at the same time, yes I can also see full casters are overpowered in spell variety and raw spell power, even if eliminating full casters / AD&D-based magic would remove most of the reason I'm running D&D).
>>96488071>eliminating full casters / AD&D-based magic would remove most of the reason I'm running D&DThat's the rub of trying to fix 3.5, isn't it? When so much of the appeal is the labyrinths of rules and interactions built up over a decade of books and decades of discussion, if you start trying to move the foundations you end up collapsing the whole house of cards even if it's objectively better game design.
>>96485927Onto possible materials:Vehicles as objects take 1/4 damage from cold and 1/2 from acid, fire and lightning. For metals to consider we have copper, bronze, gold (bling), silver (DR bypass), iron, steel (hardness 12 from dragonmech), cold iron (for fighting giant fae monsters), mithral, adamantine, starmetal (to kill demonic kaijus) and aurorum (effectively self repairing steel, which would probably create small wars simply by existing).For non-metals we have wood, bone, darkwood (light) and bronzewood (worse than iron, better than normal wood), stone(heavy). Bone and wood should also be coming in living variants for beast and plant titans, dead bone already should work perfectly fine with undead titans.And then we have flesh, including demonic and troll ones, and undead flesh that doesn't get the damage divisors as normal, but can heal, or in case of troll and higher class demonic fast heal. Less HP than metals, lower hardness even with giant scales or fur on top. Perfect for numerous opponents since demon and troll beast titans would have ~1/3 HP of a metal mech on average. Kaiju battles ahoy!What other materials should I consider?

>>96490612There's not much more you can do for belph on top of what it already has, all you can add is a way to get rid of level 6-7 bodies and a clutch final attack.Still loses hard to on deletions, but the added consistency makes it more bearable.
>>96491487Man I attended two release events, bought a heap of singles (including playsets of both SECs) and still choose it over BT22 for my participation packs at locals so have probably spent more than that. But DM is a lot of fun

Wish Release came out this month, I'm excited to play it in my Chronicle deck.

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/.
>>96487337>3d printing will one day become the standard. And may even phase out hard plastic as the tech gets better.Currently it's just not the case as the material is way too fucking breakable even on the most flexible or tough resins. You ship it, you'll get breakages, no matter how much you try against or how sturdy the model is. Much of the problem has to do with couriers being morons as well, of course.The other problem is scalability. Making 10000 cast/injection plastic minis is much more affordable and scaleable than making 10000 3d printed minis, which requires much more human hands and input along that way. It's a much less automated process as every single models requires a significant amount of post processing work from print. It's why 3D printing is currently not a thing in the retail market and probably won't be until the process requires considerably less post processing steps from built plate to packaging.
>>96491913I halfway agree because I feel like the lore/canon is like a guideline or suggestion, and people who sperg out over a minor detail being wrong are annoying as fuckWould love to run Dark Heresy because I like the system but my prospective players are all giant lore spergs so maybe not
>>96487457>We are normies. None of us is special.Do not think this as a 4chan browser. You unironically think differently if you use this website over any of the mainstream social medias regardless of the reason.
>>96488817>comic made by /v/tards who don't realize the tl;dr is "Marketing did it"Yeah good point
99% of all shitskins do not want to play fantasy games, regardless of how many brownoids companies clumsily shoehorn into the artwork of their games. If you’re a white guilt redditor, just take solace in knowing that you gave nogs a big warm gay welcome into your hobby but they just weren’t interested. Accept that trad games are a white culture thing, along with all the fantasy they depict, and move on
Now that the dust has settled... was 5e a good line or not? It got a lot of new people into the hobby, but it also has a lot of flaws at a design level.
>>96489730>Forgotten Realms was the official default setting and they never made a book for it.They did and it FUCKING SUCKED
>>96489746The sword coast isn't the whole setting. And the fact that they did one corner of Faerun and fucked it up and then never did another just reinforces the point.
>>96489511>They are literal virgin babies. Literally all the powergamers I know are actual fucking virgins in their mid-20s. Whereas all the people I play OSR with save for one are married or in serious relationshipsYou're talking like a woman, fagmeister.
>>96486930It was fine for what it was. I played it for a while, but it didn't have staying power and I don't think it was supposed to. Great for beer and snacks games where you are just looking to kill some monsters and chill with yours buds in a system you can be sure everyone knows.
>Want to DM for my friends>Don't know where to start, don't know 5e so good, would get overwhelmed>Pick up a 5e-lite-NuSR-mix>Take out all the NuSR things>The logistics system is gutted, the core gameplay loop is removed in favour of milestone levelling>It's now group improvisation with a skeletal, nay, vestigial, retro combat systemWoTC should release 5e-Lite, I think.
Is Magic actually at its all time height in popularity or is that just Hasbro making that claim and consumers regurgitating it without doing more research? From what I’ve seen it seems the game was actually bigger around 2001 - 2013.
>>96492385They have brought in players with no long term hold. Wait until 2028 or 2029 and ask again about their popularity then
>>96492385I think its marketing. They've been doing a lot of aggressive marketing lately: Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, fake influencers making the game look super social. I believe that because of theis there are a lot of first time players coming, looking for that exaggerated social aspect they've seen from influencers or because of whatever UB set is their own interest. FNM where I'm at has been either packed or dead, pretty much alternating and when it's packed its usually new players trying it out, often disappointed. TL;DRthere are more people trying magic than ever before, but it's become so thematically inconsistent and different from the portrayal made by influencers that it's probably going to die.
>>96492385Its probably at an all time high for scalpers and people who do pack openings on youtube, but all time low for people who like to play the game
Making money by regurgitating already established lore?
>>96490963No he found a job doing AI slop ads so now he doesn't do /tg/ videos anymore just stupid 3 hour gym podcasts. Only good thing about it is that it inspired me to start lifting again cause I can't stand the idea that manlet faggot is stronger than me.
>>96482586>be another history student looking for a job after getting his degree>like playing TTRPGs and worldbuilding and so on and to endlessly discuss it with friends anyway >2025 has to be the worst year for employment in this field so farShould I just do it, anons? I actually had some ideas for videos now and then.
>>96482586>Making money by regurgitatingis there anything other than parasitism on the internet these days? every single person online is a grifter who grifts other grifters until at the very end of the grift chain there's some dude who just gets cucked
>>96487514I'd unironically listen to that while painting. Especially if it was genuinely funny and taking the piss against loretubers.
>>96492179Just give it a shot, bro.

>>96490542This looks awesome so far! And yeah just small patches of trailing scales (and her wings when she gets to the right level to manifest them). I don't think the ability gives other dragon traits (unfortunately). She has bright purple eyes and pointed, but not super long since she's a half-elf, ears. Maybe they could poke out from her hair just a bit? For her chest, maybe a c cup? Bigger than the average full-elf due to her human blood, at least. Anyway as long as she's not a super-hentai elf with her boobs bigger than her head it should be fine lol. For muscularity maybe a bit of tone on her arms and legs since her top leaves her arms pretty bare. She'd probably have visible back muscles but only when she brings her wings out. She's not really like ripped or anything. Despite CON being her second best score she is still a squishy caster with like an 8 in STR lol.This is pretty cool anon! Thanks for your interest in Val. I can't wait to see what you do with her :)
>>96345871just realized i forgot to share this here. hope you're still around anon
>>96492086anyways. gimme more characters to draw, you know the drill. horror. gore. sexy girls or monsters or armored characters/robots, i want to practice metallics
>>96492089I'd like to requestAlarmingly underweight researcher wearing hover-suit prototype, high-tech metallic full body harness that glows faintly, she's hovering inches above ground, picture of perfect mental health - shaved head, bags under eyes, sickly pale, burn marks/track marks/scars on her arms.She's either naked besides the harness or is some minimalistic underwer (in either case, straps of the harness conveniently do the necessary to maintain basic decency).Her expression is absolutely triumphant after radical dieting and some serious tinkering she managed to get just enough lifting force to get off the ground, validating tremendous effort she put into the project, didn't even need to cut any toes - which she absolutely would do if that made the diffirence getting the liftoff.Hell, if you can be bothered doing a background, throw pair of industrial bolt cutters in the corner and whiteboard scribbles estimating weight of toes.

Previous thread: >>96346915GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image (follow the URL to get to a folder with some files, read the files to get to the archive). Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: What is your opinion on the art in GURPS books?
I compiled a list of skills sorted by default and learned that the Piloting skill is based on DX but defaults to IQ-6. Curious.
>>96491287I'd say yes.Significant new rules:Injury Tolerance (independent body parts) - reprinted from PowersPanic Attacks disadvantageSome new improvised weaponsAlternative fright check mechanicsCorruption (the big, important one)Other content:Two decent settings (!PotC and WotW2)Excellent advice on running horror games and making things scary (which can apply in other genres)Decent templates and meta-traits
>>96491780torrenting then buying if I like it.>>96492024I plan on doing that.>>96492451Thanks!
>>96492379If they are just hallucinations induced by the equipment, then that's just a flaw in the device, same as how NODs can give temporary disadvantages like Tunnel Vision and No Depth Perception. You don't need to make it buildable with the advantage / disadvantage system because it's just gear.If they are real entities, then they have some kind of Invisibility (or maybe high levels of Chameleon or Obscure) which doesn't work against this extremely specific technology. A web search says that the red night-vision made heat visible, so it seems like some kind of Infravision. I guess the demons could just have Invisibility in the visible spectrum and not IR, although that raises the question of why they only appeared in this specific instance. Maybe they realised they were being observed and improved their invisibility spells or something?
>>96492489>>96492406"Advanced" but faulty prototype equipment causing long term hallucinations sounds very funny for a group to deal with
What TTRPG system has the best combat in your opinion? What makes it shine compared to other systems out there?
>>96490047The initiative system is great (up til 3e)Didn't they change it later?
