>>97457104Sorry, I don't read prequels, so I don't care to know who is to blame or whatever for the HH. I'm only going by rulebook lore (and outdated editions, at that).But what you're saying does not make him any less than the greatest political leader regardless, unless you think that internal strife invalidates the size and lifespan of the imperial project?Surely you wouldn't say that Alexander the Great wasn't an incredible leader simply because he failed to secure a future for his imperial project beyond his untimely death?
>>97457067Why do you persist in showing everyone how mega retarded you are? You act as if you didn't make your original claim, which has been refuted. Your brain has been touched by nurgle rot.

>>97349107Unironically yes, and funny enough he did exactly what the antichrist would do, damns humanity to a endless cycle of war and death through his own hubris.However even that being a fact, IoM is still the objectively good faction.
>>97458421>exactly what the antichrist would do, damns humanity to a endless cycle of war and deathWhy would you write something so ridiculously and verifiably incorrect?In biblical christlore, the anti-christ is expected to rule for a specified period prior to the return of the christ and the ushering in of the kingdom of god.That's why you've got christians helping the jews prepare for the arrival of their christ (who is in-universe the anti-christ), since jew-christ/anti-christ ruling the world is necessary for anti-anti-christ to rule the world.

>>97458553You’ve been shitting up threads for like the past two weeks with this. Either stop posting about it like you’ve threatened to numerous times or make a schizo image you can post instead of getting worked up when someone says they enjoy a GMT game. People don’t want to read your walls of text (as you’ve already ascertained) and it doesn’t seem like it’s good for you to be writing them

Give it a shot?>>97458632I agree with this. I think the base game is fun for what it is, I think 3 is better than 2 for me, but I can see the appeal in two. I think it really depends the allure of the game for each person at the table. The expansions I think go away from the core ideas too much and arent really fun or interesting
>>97458770>past two weeksSearch for GMT + sex offender/pedo in the archive to see how long he's been waging this crusade while no one else cares.
>>97458631Arcs with and without the expansion are 2 completely different experiences, however I think it was smart to cut out all the shit and make a cheaper base game, since its more approachable and honestly, its fantastic.Dont worry about the expansion, you probably couldn't play a 9 hour version of the game anyways.
Welp, my FLG is going down in flames for the most insane reason I wouldn't even think possible>apparently people now just play with base-sized cardboard cut-outs with names of units written on them>there were days when you would walk in and most of the tables would be hogged by poorfags and their cardboard>the owner is too much of a nice guy and he barely makes a profit on the store anyway so he was just happy to have people playing in there>it all escalated during AoS tournament when fully half of the players did not own a single mini>argument broke down between a player with fully painted army and cardboard poorfag>it boiled down to shit flinging and name calling and the tournament had to be called off>the owner had no other option but to ban the cardboardfags, or else he would start losing customers who actually buy stuff>some of the cardboardfags are unironic Communists and started a smear campaign, calling him a ''classist''

what rubs me the wrong way about the D&D combat wheelchair is that i think disabled people deserve better. fantasy has so many well thought out tools, mechanisms, magical solutions for a character who's disabled to be able to adventure alongside a group of able bodied people, but all they could be bothered to do in this case was give people a poorly thought out device that doesn't fit in the setting, and also doesn't even fit within the bounds of a dungeons and dragons campaign. if I'm running a D&D game and a player brings a character along who's in a combat wheelchair, am i expected to have the minions of evil carve wheelchair accessible ramps and architecture into their temple of doom so that the wheelchair-bound character can infiltrate their operation? logistically it makes no sense and doesn't work alongside the expected flow of a dungeons and dragons campaign. this character is expected to climb mountains, trawl through jungles, forests, move over a rickety bridge over the top of a chasm filled with lava and go through deep snow while seated in a wheelchair?they could have given a splatbook on mobility aids like beasts of burden the character can ride while still being able to use all of their abilities, flying platforms, mechanical spider legs, but all they could do was this lazy, pandering shit with no forethought in the slightest. and if you have a problem with it, people will point at YOU like you're in the wrong for disallowing it at your table.the moral of the story is: don't play dungeons and dragons fifth edition
>>97458744You've missed the point. The D&D combat wheelchair isnt about having convincing, interesting or realistic representation of disabilities in games, it's about facilitating self-insert characters for people who have internalized their disability but want to be treated as if they are not disabled.
>>97458744This >>97458806 It's a homebrew rule, and the person who made it has an illness where they need to use a wheelchair sometimes. The goal isn't to accurately represent the struggles of disabled people. It's to be able to treat the wheelchair as a fashion accessory. There can't be any downsides or penalties to using it, because that would imply that disabled people are less capable in some way. Likewise, using fantastical or magical contraptions also isn't the goal, because then it no longer looks like a wheelchair and is therefore no longer the fashion accessory they wanted.That's why the whole debate is stupid, because it's people getting upset over the most boring and nonsensical homebrew implementation of something possible, and then other people defending that homebrew because they see the criticism as hatred towards disabled people.

>>97458298>games I spectatedDo they really...?
>>97457244i had a similar experience with the Ash Sorcerer optional class in Ashes, it's just incredibly unbalanced and feels like it wasn't playtested very thoroughly. basically breaks the entire game after like third level depending on the disciplines and arts taken. granted it is an optional class and i made the choice to allow it, so part of the blame is on me for that, but still.
thog when?
>>97457097be the change you want to see in the worldalso, does anyone else think that the walls in this strip are oddly tilted in comparison to the floor or is it just me? is it the aftermath of the blasphemy or just an error?
>>97458654I'd say it's intentional to try and add to the feeling of disorientation. Note that the panel that's centered on Belkar is completely normal, because he's unaffected.
>>97458685but in the second to last panel, the brick lines align with the floor even though there are three affected characters
>>97458742Yeah, cause Nale and Sabine are the main focus of the panel.

What simple system is the best in your experience?Something that can be used easily and quickly for a wide variety of settings, but not completely rules light. Just the right amount of structure to build on top off with your players during the play.
>>97454500Savage Worlds, with the caveat that every game you run it will feel like savage worlds.
>>97454500What's simple for me isn't simple for others.I've had lots of people say my design style is too complex, whether it's too many character options, too many active and passive skills, too many status effects, too many attributes, too in-depth tracking individual body features of multiple characters, too many resources, too many damage type interactions (weaknesses/resistances), too many modifiers for altering weapon/armor quality and defensive damage reduction and skill damage, and in general, too much maths.But it's just right for me, and the major appeal of this hobby is the ability to make something for yourself and what group you may have.

How Lovecraftian can the sword and sorcery be before you establish a significant enough tonal shift that it's no longer sword and sorcery?You have the answer to that question in your mind? Good. Now how Lovecraftian can the magic and monsters in your standard fantasy setting get before the tone actually shifts to sword and sorcery?
>>97454792The satanic panic never stopped. They've been doing the same shit my entire life. They just starting paying agitators to scream about the left wanting to ban titties, while also accusing them of corrupting good girls and turning them into dirty onlyfans sluts.
>>97454792>Where it gets really weird is that these counter-culture holdout gamers for some reason support the political partyIt's really weird for any counter-culture holdout to support any political party.
>>97452421>How Lovecraftian can the sword and sorcery be before you establish a significant enough tonal shift that it's no longer sword and sorcery?>You have the answer to that question in your mind? Good. Now how Lovecraftian can the magic and monsters in your standard fantasy setting get before the tone actually shifts to sword and sorcery?I think that the dividing line isn't so much the world, magic and monsters itself, but the reaction of characters to it. When they come across something truly strange and alien, do they lose their mind in horror or do they soldier on? If they are pressed to fight it, do they go at it with bling animal instinct, grim determination or a "if it bleeds we can kill it" attitude?Especially to the second question in context of ttrpgs though, I would say that basically no amount of Lovecratftian additions to the /setting/ really change the feeling of a game. If a system isn't suited to run S&S then no amount of many mawed tentacled adversaries, human leather bound tomes and forgotten alien civilizations will change that...There are official stats and rules for pretty much every Lovecraft monster from DnD 3e onward but you'll never experience Shadow over Innsmouth in modern DnD.It's just not the type of story these systems are meant to facilitate.
>>97457141Which Lovecraft stories feature anyone driven mad by seeing strange things? Rats in the Walls and Shadow over Innsmouth suggest their protagonists' madness is inherited. A few have their experiences dismissed as lunacy, but their accounts are entirely lucid. Maybe the secondary character in At the Mountains of Madness who saw Tekeli-li counts.
>>97458504nta, but Dagon is more or less the protagonist narrating his own spiral into madness. It feels like that one story overly shapes their interpretation of what counts as Lovecraftian.
