Any problems you have with Warhammer 40k/Games Workshop over the past few years, anon? Do you see it getting better or worse?
The focus on competitive tournament faggotry has made 40k one of the most bland wargames I have ever played>Do you see it getting betterNo, luckily enough older players felt the same and there's a couple classic 40k rulesets hanging around. Not to mention being able to go back and play whatever edition I want, it's just a shame I miss out on the huge player pool of mainstream 40k.
>>97223167So why do you care about the hobby then if you do not take part in it?
>>97223274I buy the books, anon.
>>97223168>The focus on competitive tournament faggotry has made 40k one of the most bland wargames I have ever playedThis is why we're actively fighting WAACfaggotry over in /btg/, selling to tryhards may be profitable, but it ruins the experience for everyone else.

>>97218669double revenge triggers suck, but Dooku would at least give you a revenge trigger of your own. The best list atm seems to be Riff/Grevious but I don't know how well it performs into double revenge as it is so killy. Ventress has god tier activations but doesnt really do anything outside of them unfortunately.
Finally saw this, it was basically the prequels if they were actually good
>>97220915Maybe you should stop installing mods without knowing what they do, Visas' class is jedi sentinel and will stay that way. Sith assassin is one of the player only prestige classes.
I want to be owned and bullied by a pureblood sith woman.
Thinking of starting with Shatterpoint. A friend already has the core set, so can I just grab one box and start playing, or is the core set necessary? I want to play, but I want to avoid another dead-end buy-in like Legions.

I got thinking recently, and I feel like a big problem with games where the main appeal is the vibe/feel of the setting rather than unique mechanics/crunch isn't the idea of an artistically driven game in and of itself. The problem, IMO at least, is more that A: a lot these games aren't just narrative-before-mechanics, the mechanics are a complete afterthought, and B: they're all aping the exact same vibe. If we only had 1 or 2 games attempting to capture the "grimdark" vibe it wouldn't be so bad but it feels like everything is going for variations of the exact same aesthetic/narrative flavour. At least Turnip28 had some degree of whimsy in the actual fluff, but with Trench Crusade, Mork Borg and a billion other "the artstyle is Streaking Grime" settings I personally am feeling grimdark fatigue.I dunno- I feel like an art/vibe driven game with an actually unique or at least underutilized vibe (purely as an example, aping the bright and colourful look of 2nd edition 40K and its contemporaries) and decent mechanics would be good.
>>97219773I agree, art direction is everything, no one wants to play with a world that is visualized to look dull and ugly
Everyone's trying to do grimdark because it's popular. The market exists and wants it, so everyone's jostling for first place. You can make a game with any other look but it's untested grounds.
>>97219773>they're all aping the exact same vibeThat's because you're looking at things that are all descended from the same source because it's far and away the most popular game in that niche.
>>97220097>I intend toYou can literally start right now!
>>97219773Grimslop is fine when there's an actual setting behind the art like with Mutant Chronicles but all the nu grimdark settings just reference Warhammer and call it a day. Grimdark isn't even a real genre it's a marketing buzzword.
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started.

>>97222508As a side to the aforementioned disneywood problems, the original Wormskin Zines are well worth looking at and using various parts to add to your campaign. They have a lot of useable material that has a more earnest approach and tone than the newer stuff and more direct use with b/x.
>>97222859FWIW, doing it 24 miles per hex would put it at the size of Italy and Norway and roughly half the size of France. So yeah, arguably too big, but not that big.I know you were probably being hyperbolic, but I did the maths and wanted to share.
>>97223125I was being hyperbolic but the main reason was that my autism is just about weak enough that I couldn't justify doing the maths myself, so well done and thanks.

>>97222284oh understandable. For sure, you have to do it with people you know and who trust you not to be an asshole. We have been playing a while already, and 3/4 players I've known for years.
>>97220239>>97220243To be honest, in the DW campaign I'm in, I would have totally thought that was cool. I get people saying "bah! 10 corruption points is so punishing!" but the limit is 100 and even in a long deathwatch campaign, it will take forever for it to matter. I slightly agree with WP success punishing you for having high WP but I think it would give away the hallucination to easily for what it is.
>>97223001>but the limit is 100 and even in a long deathwatch campaign, it will take forever for it to matterThat's a good point actually, Maybe I just don't give them out often enough, but even in the longest 40k campaigns I've ever run or played not a single character ever acculumated enough insanity or corruption points for them to actually become an issue

>>97222961Back when Erastil was going through one of his #Cancel troubles - I want to say 2018 - Paizo released one of those Ultimate books that had a write-up for Milani where they portrayed her as a traditional country girl that loves big families and defending your community from tyranny. It really felt like, at the time, they were trying to sell Milani as the big country deity to worship.
can I get some tips on making this homebrew item?Passive Shield - WornHP: 40 BT: 5 AC TARGET: +6 Hardness: 6A shield that is fitted directly on clothing/armor, requiring the user to strategically turn their body to take blows with the shield. Instead of requiring a raise shield action and a shield block reaction, this shield will automatically block incoming damage depending on the incoming attack roll. As long as the attack roll of the incoming damage is equal or under the sum of AC + AC TARGET, but above or equal your AC, the shield will block the damage, as if you had performed the shield block reaction. You can not use Raise a Shield with this item, and it does not give AC bonuses.It's for a PF2E total conversion into a mecha action homebrew system where the player has to fill one of their weapon slots with it, so don't worry about how it fits on a medieval setting.
>>97222622Well into 1e but modern references to external pop culture crap like >>97222739 wormed its way into the game from the jump with references in the campaign setting guide from 2008. Not being able to read the books has persisted since time immemorial.

>>97221042Consider implementing the following detail: the actual doom diver has the launching pad streaked with some kind of black grease in order for the goblin to slide without too much friction during the launch, there's even a small bucket of the stuff on the model
Okay I'm doing a fanfiction with 4 OCs Warlord Clans going to Clan Mors To become it's Thrall Clans Any information I should know about how Thrall Clans usually become that way with the great 4 or what the relationship is usually like or can differ between the great 4 and their Thrall Clans?
In your game, do you treat bows as strength- or dexterity-based weapons?
For every 2 points of Dex above 10, add 1 to your roll to hit. For every 3 points of Dex above 10, make an additional attack per attack action at a cumulative -2 penalty. For every 4 points of Dex above 10, increase the crit range of the weapon by 1.For every 2 points of Str above 10, increase the damage of the weapon by 1. For every 3 points of Str above 10, you can reroll 1 damage die per attack. For every 4 points of Str above 10, your melee attacks may cleave to another target within range and your ranged attacks gain 50% of their base range in additional range.

Backgrounds are important context for skills but remain inspiration rather than dictation. >Races starting as predominantly human, adding in other races as they are encountered and become allies in a living world that engage with player decisions and blends in the odd in gradual ways to create both a sense of grounded world familiarity and wonder as exploration proceeds
>>97223088The world map is one of the most visible and evocative parts of your entire setting. If it is derivative, uninspired, and lazy, there's a good chance that everything else in your setting is as well.

>>97223146>he shows players the world map ngmi
I feel like this edition has alot of objectively bad things about it and is absolutely where the alot of worst qualities of current editions showed up. But I feel like I prefer playing this edition compared to a lot of previous editions and 10th edition. Its a weird transitional period where there's still a lot of the old units that haven't been legended yet while still having the fucking Primaris lot. Its strange but I don't feel like I'm missing out on much staying on this edition and playing with friends casually instead of going back to playing the current edition.
>>972172899th needed a few years in the oven.Because it had potential. Everyone finally had a codex and you could start seeing what worked and what not.Instead we got the piece of shit that is 10thI played GSC and 9th GSC was way more fun to play than 10th
>>97217254I recall in 7th playing with Sisters of Battle. That I simply spammed Immolator with twin multi-melta, as much meltaguns dominions, flamer battle sisters and deeptriking seraphins with shred as I could, then fill up the rest with penitent engines.It worked surprising well against Necrons
9e was just 10e with more stupid bullshit to remember
>>97213017>Nu40kDo you mean units? Because many of the units are foul.>>97186166>There will never be a definitive editionBy design because they want to milk you for $If for some reason I didn't want to play OPR any more, I'd play the fan SRD for 4th. But that would only be if OPR shits the bed and I didn't like Xenos Rampant or something.

>>97221933Yeah I didn't mean rules. I meant models. Did a quick peek on Etsy and didn't see anything that fit the profiles either. Maybe I should give up and just nab some craftworld ships.
>>97222946Arcane Shipyard has good sculpts if 3d printing is an option. They are modular with variant prows for each weapon system and they have both escort and cruiser.https://cults3d.com/en/users/ArcaneShipyard/3d-models
There is a strange code at the bottom of pastebin file.What is this? How do I use it?
>>97222588I don't know why they bothered with errata for the Flamer/Man-catcher. It's the single worst weapon in the game and nothing they did changed it.Also, I guess if a Squat has a circular stone saw as their weapon besides their gun, they make unarmed attacks + circular stone saw. So cheap power pack weapons are overpriced on anyone with more than one attack, and the expensive ones are overpriced period.
>>97222566>Neither of you has read the actual bookYeah, and I don't intend to. A summary is fine. I'm just want to know what Ozzy and the previous rulers were. I know they're called "the iron lords" but I don't know what that entails. Cyborgs? Necrons? Guys who traded iron with other systems? Rulers who were though like iron?
