Thread titleWhy did they get so steamed about the whole thing, fighting slavery is like 80% of the plot hooks in a fantasy game. There were entire prestige classes and campaigns built around that.I mean like if the bad guys don't do slavery and aren't racist / homophobic, what do they do that's actually bad
>>96734798That's pretty off-colour desu.I wouldn't complain about it, or try to censor, but I just straight up wouldn't be interested in thinking too much about that sort of shit.Adult on adult rape?Fine.Cannibalism?Fine.Murdering children non-sexually?Also fine.But that's what I'd call "Unnecessary vulgarity", even by my loose standards.I just don't see how you could introduce that element on to your table and keep it fun, rather than descending into the benthic abyss.Comment too long.

>>96734975I've never played spearhead so it's strictly a "cool models" or "value for army" proposition
>>96734719Nurgles pretty good just because you can use the leftover nurgling bits as actual nurglings. Aside from that? uh…I guess the gitmob spearhead has some decent value, I think it’s approaching 40% savings which even the big combat forces don’t even reach anymore.
>>96734968don't tempt them, man
>>96734758I would be impressed if they somehow made something worse than flaming naked children.
>>96734675>worst spearheadSons of Behamat hands down>how to fix itI'm not sure if you could really fix it at a mechanical level, but at the very least they need to update that sculpt, its so shitty looking. If the normal gargants didn't look like such shit people would actually want to take them. Maybe turn them into cyclops's or something
Have you ever been in a Gladiator campaign?
>>96725931You know I would actually love to see that, but I can't say I have.If you want an adventure with the gladiator experience, check out 'The Champion's Belt' in Dungeon Magazine. It's part of the Age of Worms adventure path, and a very solid stand-alone adventure as a one-shot.
I was a gladiator-aspirant as a war robot in a one shot adventure.
Does helping a rebellion against tyranny that includes escaped gladiators count?
>>96734844That should be the end goal of all gladiator campaigns so yes.
>>96725931Running one right now. It's Dark Sun. The players started as slaves purchased to be gladiators in Tyr. They've now escaped and will (hopefully) be joining the Veiled Alliance, during our session tomorrow. The plan is the Veiled Alliance is gonna give them 3 "things we want to get done" and I'll let the players choose which and how. One is go raid the caravan bringing in gladiators. One is go to the Greybridge outside the city, and win in the arena to earn the loyalty of the trainers that the VA wants. And the other is go rescue dude's daughter who has been enslaved. It'll really be an "overthrow the sorcerer king" campaign (original setting, no prism pentad). But I'm gonna keep gladiators in it as long as I can.Fun so far, but we're not very far in.
Palladium Games and Rifts General! /PGaRG/The world is a broken, post-apocalyptic wasteland destroyed by the eruption of inter-dimensional portals, rifts in the fabric of space-time and ley lines which crisscross the world. Demon & alien invaders have poured out of the rifts to destroy human civilization and claim the Earth. Now the wasteland has had 300 years to partially recover, and civilization has returned to the world; but not just human civilization: alien empires, monster kingdoms, lost time travellers, lands of mutants, demonic overlords and wizards have arisen from the ashes, all trying to rebuild the world in their own image!RIFTS! The science fantasy world of post-apoc cyborgs, wizards, dragons, ninjas, giant mecha, super-nazis, robot ninjas, vampires, underwater kingdoms, remnant human supertech civilizations and everything you can imagine all rolled into one setting where interdimensional RIFTS have pierced Earth's fabric and turned it into a playground for aliens and monsters!Plus other Palladium Games about superheroes, zombies, classic fantasy, supernaturals investigation and more.

>>96722663At my table (going off of memory since I don't have my notes).Lasers have massive range and bonus to aimed shots due to no fucking recoil and point & click nature. They suffer range/damage penalties in bad conditions.Ion does +2/die damage to machines and tech force shields.Plasma does AoEs (it was dots before but that was annoying to keep track of in big combats)Particle Beam weapons have Improved Crit and on kill penetrate the target to hit behind them, allowing crazy shit.Railguns are heavier, single shot, and are the most damage you can get, if you can carry it.
>>96727430All we know is when the Savage Rifts guy got involved all new RAW projects got shut down and they're supposed to be going back to print all of the promised material that hasn't been cancelled.That said Alaska and Lazlo have been RAW for years now, so it feels like the rewrite process hit a snag when Kev's live-in girlfriend died.
>>96732733Savage RIFTS isnt real
>>96732716This is good. I like the distinction between weapons. Thumbs up. >>96732733>>96733475>Savage RIFTS isnt realNo, but unfortunately Sean Owen Roberson is real. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/--v04H2wD5E>>96731551Reminded. Pic related.
Who's your favorite artist? For me, it's Perez.
I don't mean urban fantasy, I mean high fantasy settings that have progressed to a state roughly analogous to modern society.Wizzas dealing scrolls in back alleys, paladins cracking down on black magic users, so on and so forth. I feel like there's a lot of room there to run a fun campaign.
>>96731055And it was, Pablo. No hablo English?
>>96732545you're done ranjeetlog off
>>96691761>>96692811>roaring 20's with magicYeah, it's interesting though. A mix of both pre and post war, though the new book as I understand doesn't quite understand the time period it's trying to copy well so you end up with a lot of vague details
>>96704828FF8 magic was more like channeling nature spirits which is why you had to draw it, Sorceress had that stuff innate to them so they could just do much more powerful shit
>>96734448Let's be real. The whole Sorceress storyline was extremely underdeveloped as with most aspects of FF8's story. The only thing FF8 accomplished was adding to the iconic aspects of the franchise that gets represented in other/adjacent games.

>>96734577Cute!
How do you come up with fantasy names for elves and dwarves and the like?
Elves can be named after diseases and/or medication names, with or without minor alterations>Thalassemia>Eliquis>Atorvastatia>Mercaptopurine>Jardiance
>>96728189Naming my next elven kingdom Sialis

what's the worst dm you've ever had?
This friend of a friend.There was my friend, one other guy he knew, his GM friend, and me. I'd never met any of my friend's friends.We were playing a one-shot CoC scenario. I quickly made my character, a big game hunter.Something odd was happening at an isolated mansion and we drove up to check it out. It was dark when we arrived. When we got out of the car the front doors opened and a servant invited us in. The GM also mention that we might have heard/seen something in the dense trees next to the mansion.My character, being an experienced hunter, decides to check what the noise could be, while the two other guys go inside.GM turns to me and goes: "You're dead".Then he continues the game with the other two guys.I kept waiting for something to make sense. Maybe we're all supposed to die and return as zombies? Maybe I'll return as a possessed body? But no, I had to sit there for 30 minutes until he gave me a new character, a policeman stopping by, to play as.I've no idea what his thought was. Perhaps he didn't really want me in the game and just wanted to play with the two guys he knew? Perhaps he panicked and couldn't come up with something?Never played with him again.
>>96730479This isn't a DM, it's a fucktard in a monkeysuit.Beat him with bricks, anon.
>>96667447trolling via discord, at least its not grooming.
>>96722228Hell is other people
>>96682212I have a friend who kinda DMs like this, in a very pro-player way for lack of a better way to put it. But he balances it out with enough difficulty that our victories still always feel earned and sometimes when he does go overboard with loot etc. he'll just openly retcon it lmaoNotably in one game he gave us 5,000 platinum pieces in the opening session, only to later reveal they were chocolate fakes.>>96683170The whole system's rigged, we all know the riggers.

>>96734934Becoming a lich is rather difficult to do by accident. Though it's also notable that by default, liches don't suddenly turn into skeletons as soon as they become one. A lich who maintains their body can continue to look normal. It's just that when you don't feel hunger or thirst and you're an immortal nerd who wants to study in their fortress for days on end, maintaining that usually isn't on a list of a lich's concerns. That said, you don't even need to copy that so specifically. The loss of a soul could just end up with something like the shadowfell races, where you're grey and gaunt, but not outright skeletal.
>>96734957Skelly liches are cool though
>>96735115
>>96735128Basic skellys are brainless husks. But liches have bound their minds to their decaying bodies through the use of a phylactery so still remain smarter than most people as high level mages.
>>96735115Sure, but I was replying to someone who specifically wanted different atheistic.
I think Trazyn's irreverent, Deadpool-esque personality works perfectly in the context of what he is. People hate him for being immersion-breaking and fucking up the tone of the setting, but given that as one of the few high-level Necrons who's still more or less in complete possession of all his faculties, he's so powerful he can actually afford not to take things seriously. Him and the Orks both work as comic relief from different angles. The orks because they're so absurdly violent that they're perfectly adapted to a hostile universe, Trazyn because he's so absurdly powerful that the universe is profoundly inadequate to him.
>>96681625The concept of genestealers and their cults should be completely separated from nids because it limits their potential and every plotline leads to "oops they all got eaten tehe".Make genestealers a separate xenos race and bring back the fat ugly bastard patriarch.
>>96714928>Chaos technically has everything of that already>it exists offscreen in text but has no presence whatsoever on tabletop, in video games, even in books>exactly what >>96712297 was complaining about
The Dark Eldar should be more relevant in the grand scheme of things.
>>96730480I dunno, I think it's funnier when they THINK they're independent or that they're the actual followers of the Emperor and everyone else is a heretic and then they get digested when their real bosses show up. It's not so far off to how real cults work if you think about it.
>>96734876Genestealer cults are aesthetically and thematically one of my favourite armies but I never bothered because, well, I have no idea what to do eith them.

>>96734356All of it happened to the Hermes II. It lost its leg, fell over, stood back up, then ate about 45 damage and had an ammo explosion. But it had less than 20 pips left between its side torso and center torso anyway and never got a chance to limp away. The Blackjack was able to start wading across the river but we called it there since I was down two mechs and very unlikely to win.
>>96734409A bridge only got used once, and the remaining map sheets on hand were excessively wet. But yeah, water didn't factor in much.
I cannibalised some Arena of the Planeswalker boards and Heroscape tiles to make a 3D hex map for my BattleTech games.Next up is adding some 3D printed hex buildings around the paved areas in the four corners.I think I'm gonna name this map The Battle of Serenity Valley.
Blazers and Light Blazers are better than I thought in Gothic. All lasers can be set to dazzle mode that uses half the heat but keeps the same damage against Abominations (half damage against mechs). That means a Light Blazer is 7 damage for 3 heat. Medium lasers are probably still better at 5 damage for 1 heat, but hey, at least they're trying.
>>96734814Tip: If you get Hextech terrain files, upscale them to 134.6% to make them fit heroscape tiles properly. And there's a free sample pack for hextech
Does anyone still play Shadowrun? I always liked the "what if cyberpunk had fantasy races/magic" setting so it's pretty sad that the franchise is so dead.
Can somebody walk me through the process of forging a fake SIN in 5e?
>>96681978>in the last kickstarter (only announced after the payments were locked)lolwhat?
>>96695777I would be interested in those pdfs.
>>96734923>Hey GM I got natty 6 hits I have a new fake SIN nowNot hard
>>96734923I've long suspected that they're the product of stolen identities that are close enough to pass with varying degrees of success depending on how close of a match they are and because the SIN system is so heavily automated it flied under the radar. However that doesn't quite seem to fit with some of the descriptions of how they work.

>>96734935Found them, thank you very much>>96734956www.departmento-tironem.org/blog/tempest-ordersThis card deck from WD#504 is fun
>>96734486They're an upgrade sprue kill team so they will likely disappear like the Death Korps and only leave the regular Infiltrators/Incursers box but they are one of the easiest to kitbash if you have a bunch of primaris bits
>>96721725the difference between martyrs and the other tac ops is that if your squig kills itself its not being "incapacitated by enemy operatives"but the bracketed text immediately below that sort of negates thatI'd rule that expendable ops doesn't count for either, the RAI is very clear here and the RAW isn't far behind
>>96735088Does the death korps troop box not contain the upgrade sprue?The pictures on the webstore page show the spotter, medic and grenade launcher/melta gunners so I assumed it was just repackaged without the tokensThe pathfinder upgrade sprue is apparently also included in the T'au combat patrol
>>96703213This is photoshopped right? No way the new scouts are that huge. Is there a side-by-side with other marines out there?
