>>96907430I feel like if you were to make Skaven an abhuman unit for Guard, they'd be a fast, fragile, infiltrating melee unit since that's a niche the guard doesn't really haveThey'd give you Eshin rats, not rat ogres

A typical adventurer party — a small, self-selected group repeatedly exposed to life-threatening situations — will almost certainly show a higher point-prevalence of psychological conditions than the general population. At least one member will often meet criteria for a major disorder, and many others will carry clinically significant symptoms or maladaptive personality traits rather than full diagnoses.The lack of institutional vetting and the self-selection of thrill-seeking, survival-oriented personalities increases both the probability of pre-existing personality traits/disorders and acquired trauma-related conditions. Common presenting problems (point-prevalence estimates for an active adventuring cohort) are:Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder / Complex PTSD: The signature disorder for survivors of repeated trauma. Symptoms include hypervigilance, flashbacks, avoidance, and emotional numbing. 25–40% (may be much higher in extremely brutal or betrayal-heavy settings).Sleep disorders / chronic insomnia (symptom level): Very common after trauma; worsen mood, memory, and impulse control. 20–40%.Depressive disorders: Chronic fatigue, anhedonia, hopelessness; frequently co-occurs with PTSD. 15–25%.Anxiety disorders (non-PTSD): GAD, panic, and situation-specific phobias (e.g., claustrophobia in dungeons). 15–30%.Substance use disorders: Alcohol, recreational drugs, and “potion dependence” as self-medication for PTSD or depression. 10–30%.Traumatic brain injury / chronic neurological sequelae: Repeated combat wounds or magical trauma leading to cognitive change, mood lability, headaches, and impulsivity. 5–15%.Comment too long.

>>96911846Personality disorders & maladaptive traits: Because many adventurers display adaptive or subthreshold traits, count 10–20% with clinically significant PDs or impairing personality traits. Full-disorder examples in this population:Antisocial PD (ASPD): full disorder ~3–5%; antisocial/risk-taking traits higher.Borderline PD (BPD): full disorder ~1–3%; borderline traits and emotion-dysregulation more common.Obsessive-Compulsive PD (OCPD) vs OCD: OCPD (rigidity, perfectionism) ~2–7%; true OCD (obsessions + compulsions) ~1–2%.Paranoid / Schizoid / Schizotypal PDs: combined full-disorder ~5–10%; paranoid and avoidant traits are especially common in a betrayal-prone milieu.Histrionic / Narcissistic PDs: each ~1–3% (charismatic leaders often show subclinical forms).Severe mental illness (SMI — schizophrenia, bipolar I): Rare but present; ~0.5–3% depending on setting and access to care.

You guys honestly think GW in TYYOL 2025 is capable of doing something interesting with the scouring besides just retconning a bunch of stuff and selling you slop?
>>96908154But it's not a middle ground, you absolute tacticslet. If you have a choice between two approaches both of which will render your opponent's vehicle incapable of hurting you if they succeed, and one is FAR more likely to succeed, you're simply a retard if you choose the less likely option. It's too easy to dump a bunch of status effects on a vehicle and render it - functionally - just as useless as if you had blown it up. Maybe in a system that hadn't culled two of its six turns in order to free up time for a faggy little challenge minigame that was a solved problem before the game even officially launched it could have worked, but in 3.0's 4 turn progressive scoring approach being able to pretty reliably lock down opposing vehicles for several of those turns is ridiculous, especially in comparison with how resilient they are against attempts to actually blow them up with proper AT weapons.Every word 3.0tards speak convinces me further that all the bleating and moaning about 2.0 was due to the fact you lot were all fed on a steady diet of lead paint and methylated spirits as children.
>>96911578Everything interesting about the heresy was retconned in to sell you resin slop, what are you on about?
>>96911620so you're saying no they're not capable
>>96911850I'm saying the interesting bit is the retconning nitwit, that's what it's always been. There's like two paragraphs written on these historical events before they expand it, and that's what people want to see.
How do I write a villain who is always two steps ahead?
>>96911791First off. Korra is a idiot so anyone can be two steps ahead of her. Second, the show was poorly written.
>>96911829Okay here is a better example than fussy anon
>>96910674>>96911538No seriously just write a book. ttrpgs arent good for conventional storytelling.

>>96911713Oh dear. I wonder if your fellow midwives were able to catch the baby snatcher if that's what happened.
>>96911482>TQOne of the first games of MtA I had; I have been playing an euthanatos/military spy and had a secret society of faux-masons to infiltrate. Some entropy and just talking and I was in. Then made said society join on a raid against big bad. Went so good, I got promoted to albedo in an epilogue.
Other than the World of Darkness, are there any other good urban fantasy / paranormal games?I've been looking into Urban Shadows, Liminal, City of Mist, Dark Streets & Darker Secrets, and Deliria.
>>96911713>Caitiff Lilith worshipping vicfag made a dhampir babyYeah, this is definitely a portent of Gehenna.
>>96911811Kult. It can be a bit of an acquired taste, though.
Getting away from game systems and pieces for a moment, how do you prevent a gamestore from becoming a free childcare service, while still remaining open and amicable with the public?The case I go back to are the GW Battle Bunkers. The one in Memphis I was familiar with really sold me on the hobby, walking in and seeing 20+ full art, prepped tables and getting to observe games as a youngster was a wonderful experience, but the sheer amount of unattended children and teens was the given as the reason for the closing of the game room (outside of special events, though I believe they're just gone-gone now, correct me if I'm wrong). When I've returned to the Battle Bunker stores recently, they've been sterile, dark, empty, like you walked into a small town's only munition shop. I can't imagine this facilitating the sale of starter boxes or generating referral traffic, though obviously these larger distributor warehouses don't really care about direct sales too too much.So that brings up your LGS. What staff training, procedures, and store policies can really protect a store from becoming an irresponsible parent drop off, while still protecting these entry-level childhood experiences that attach kids to these hobbies and these open, high quality gaming spaces to responsible players? I don't see many of these these days, they're either holes in the wall with one 4x4 table and two blanchard tables for Magic, or they're really low quality, wide open cheap strip mall joints with rows and rows of folding tables and no quality art pieces, terrain, or table builds. How could this be fixed adequately?
You don't. Because those sproglings dropping mommy and daddy's money on Pokemon and Magic cards is half your income.
>>96900083Get an alcohol license and put in a fridge with some beers. Second profit center and unattended kids are literally illegal to have on premises.
>>96903006How’s the weather in Romania anon?
>>96910460Could always be the PRC, but I think underage NOT smoking is illegal there.
I really like how you can tell which advice in this thread comes from the US and what come from Brittan.

In Curseborne, you play as Accursed, descendants of monstrous Lineages lurking in a modern world that closely resembles our own.

>>96900914personally if i did mummies as a dead family, i'd have their deal be centered around reverence. they ritually embalm the dead to show their importance, they find the powerful or important and source them vital resources, they find hidden legacies and buried histories to ensure people value those around them or who have passed. they have a habit of using similar affectations on themselves/each other and gathering surface level cults and cliques to ensure their own importance. their elders literally enshrine themselves for safety and sometimes take sacrifices to maintain a body stock. their inheritance may let them control the emotions of people that have positive bonds in given situations
>>96902332Nah I just think you are retarded>>96902359I'm not raging? I just absolutely hate the kvetching over what he agrees or disagrees with>>96903357There's the cat shifters yes. But you could lean into the Primal part more. Have them transform their bodies into sand or a swarm of locusts, etc give them power over the Nile & sandstorms. Half of the Primal theme is elemental power of nature, with a tacked on shape-shifter theme. So fully realize the Primal part & don't stress the shape shift as much. It's a stretch, but if can give you the right mummy vibe
>>96903786Alright thanks, do you have any other advice on creating new Families, Primal or otherwise, please?
>>96910284Pick something evocative but with some flexibility, pretty much all Motifs follow the exact same formula so just swap keywords & don't overthink it. Inheritance are slightly more liberal so try to make it something that reinforces the uniqueness of the creature you're making. Pick a cool secret spell no one else has.
>>96744183So is this game just Urban Goth Super-Antiheroies like WoD/CoD?
Angry warrior elf edition. Discuss elves and post elves.
Has your character ever been featured on a wanted poster?
>>96903557Potemkin thread.
>>96903557Yes, beause the game i have played in took place in a kitchen sink setting with a steampunk corner, where paper, printing and being able to read was common. So we were in Steampunk town and worked for Corpo 1 under false identity to get in a position to screw over Corpo 2, who had the McGuffin we were after. Corpo 2 eventually put wanted posters up that showed our false identities
>>96903557Have you tried getting a real job instead of content fishing for your ai voice channel?
no
>>96904258Isn't it one of those anachronisms people just accept as part of basic medieval fantasy?
>this is the future Taufags want
>>96905046this doesn't make any sense in the context of orthodox marxism and i don't quite get the angle you're trying to argue from.it's not what a Market Liberal or capitalist would call capitalist, it has markets, it has profit seeking traders, it has an unfree economy that is partially managed by a distant governing body in a vaguely feudal empire based on the later days of Western Rome.>marx decried. the imperium is a feudal society, with an extensive list of different social castes and classes that extend past the modern capitalist matter.within the imperuim, it's highly irregular structure would make it hard to indicate the power of guilds outside of a planet by planet basis. The system is corrupt and byzantine but it is also stultified and stratified, anyone who can wield power merchant or otherwise is likely a hereditary appointment and maybe a long suffering cadet branch of the family that simply preformed beyond expectation politically.This is the product of the imperium's material conditions, with limited and unreliable transportation as well as extensive external threats, extreme specialization and technological decay this is the base that generates the superstructure. even if you were to try and force a revolution in 40k it would fail to extend past it's boarders world by world because the aforementioned issues, along with language barriers, and highly irregular standards.It is a premordern empire. it relies on slaves to load it's guns because the technology to do so is gone, or literally demonically cursed. Also it feels weird talking to a westerner about this but nigga they were oppressed the merchants, marx goes into detail about this as a class struggle, it's a part of his idea, that the merchants did away with the other classes when they gained the upper edge it's apart of his god damn theories. also anyone who dislikes trade is a retard and deserved to die at the fields of Aragon with the rest of the CNT.
>>96905046backing up the other anons,trade existed in the neolithic, humans have literally be le capialism by this definition since before we were capable of speech and agriculture. If you consider it the family is the first corporation. item's being shared in common use around the tribe would not be equal, stronger tribes would be able to gather more land and resources and then more goods that they could return into more land and resources and they did.capitalism is a part of your D AND FUCKING A BITCH.
>>96907513>Marx's definition of capitalism applies to literally ANY society that has trade in it.
>>96905046>some guy bitched about copper and this means they had capitalism Just stop fucking embarrassing yourself.
>>96909797Imperium could do it, but it would cost untenable ground against other threats, and this is acknowledged in-setting.Necrons just are not THERE in order to fight. Most tomb worlds are dormant.
People always shit on 4e, but at least it gave us cantrips so spell-casters wouldn't be totally worthless at low levels, something that many future tabletops stole from it...
>>96909321First, you need to understand that when people say it's like wow that's a metonym meaning "it's like a vidya rpg". Wow is just one example of a vidya rpg, though the biggest and best known at the time 4e was released.Second, I'm not your web valet. My goal was to show that the 4e designers themselves said it was like vidya contradicting the anon, maybe even you, who was implying that claims of similarities were invalid. The similarities are there regardless of the designers being aware of them. That the designers say this was a deliberate goal on their part just amplifies the anon's wrongness. If you want particular details of similarities that players have found over the years do a websearch.Dismissing those quotes as wishy washy is disingenuous when only one of them mentions being told what to do, and the first says "the lessons we learn from online games are going to be the most obvious". You're coming at this in bad faith and you're still asking me to provide sources for you. That's rude. Do it yourself.>>96909452>No that's 3E. Looked at Fallout and Everquest.Interesting. I very briefly played Everquest, well after it's original release, never played a single Fallout game so I can't comment on that, but I don't see 3e being similar to Everquest, certainly not as obvious as the relationship between 4e, wow and diablo.
>>96909669You said in >>96909253 that you played the game and decided for yourself that it felt like a video game. What exactly felt like a video game?
>>968857324e was the best edition of dnd simply because it was not dnd
>>96909253>Mearles, 2012, backs up Heinsoo's statementThat just makes me assume it isn't true.
