It is the year 199X. Your friends have just sent you a text message to your Nokia 3210, saying they can't make tonight's D&D game.Which of these games do you play, to single-playerly experience that classic 'dungeon crawler' feel?
>>97344461In the late 90s (or early 2000s, I don't quite remember) I was playing Link's Awakening DX and the Oracle games.
>>97344887these are like, the 'platonic' Zelda games in my mind.the Oracle ones clearly have the third-party influence from Capcom/Flagship, but they're all the better for it. like some parallel universe where those shitty CD-i games worked out.
>>97344461"If thou dost not return, 'Avatar', then thy lies shall have brought thee low!"My lies brought me low many, many times. Never beat this damn game...never got even close.
>>97344461Those games are super far apart from each other time wise.
>>97344461Wizardry V on the SNES.
Douchemachine used to be the largest competition to GW. Now look at it and laugh
>>97344608Maybe it was for the Dragonfall event where Blighterghast ended up getting killed?
>>97344563I'm pretty sure Corvus Belli is still mostly metals no?
>>97345312They were one of the last holdouts, but have been switching to resin and plastic with mixed results for the past few years.
>>97344652Might be. I think it's mainly from how the website selling Cryx forces describes their situation as>"Stirred to rise from its deathly slumber through insidious bargains wrought by the Orgoth, a terrible new power stirs on the edge of the Iron Kingdoms."Which could either mean they dug up more Orgoth tech, or like how other people are interpreting it to men they made a bargain with the Orgoth Sea Raiders to conquer the mainland together.
>>97332398Like >>97333357 said, Steamforged officially announced that a new faction based on the Protectorate will be showing up this year.

>>97346330I have great news about a readily available source of UV light.
>>97346330I’ve seen people use UV resin and just adding in some alcohol dye to color it. Or you could glaze a red over the resin post-cure.
>>97344165Looking really good so far, but you need to find some tufts that match that desaturated sea green plant in the backdrop. It really goes well with your colors!
>>97344165
>>97343251NTA but I'm a big fan of a few of the paints from the Blanche sets. Fiery Vermillion, Bloodmoon Red, Blanched Berry, and The Darkness for example have become fast favorites.

Finished the Sergeant for my Britlist. Lieutenant is up next. This one's head is actually from a Victrix kit so it's a touch larger than his mens' heads. For a sergeant-type that works I think. I tried to get the pose like the unit art, but the arms weren't quite up to snuff and I did not feel like completely reposing them. Quite pleased nonetheless with it.

>>97342544>>97342749the only information so far is the episode2 in the stream and live concert of the new ending GIRAGIRAhttps://bushiroad.com/2026newyear_launch_event_part_en
They are going to stream the first episode tooalso new cards confirmed https://x.com/cfvanguard_PR/status/2010501981518107023if they stream the episodes first the new cards is pretty much about keter blangdmire
>>97345818Oh cool, I'm hoping they get more creative than they've been lately
>>97345818Hope we get some side product news like new trial decks and the like.
Feels like forever since we had one of these.

>Week two of people saying they can't make the game>We were suppose to start the game two weeks ago>"Friends" made such big promises for new years that we'd play a game together every week
>>97345937That sucks anon. It's not easy to organise things like this. What we do, we put a poll up listing the next month's days and everyone ticks the days they can do, we also have a rule that if one person is missing, the game still goes on, it helps muster people.
>>97345790That sounds like a player problem
>>97345719>building out a full-on character.Having a character that you still want to survive and put in effort to keep going is different to the 5e "fight everything you indestructible hero" approach
>>97345937>week 0, we do a one shot to gauge interest>players A, B, C, and D seem to have a good time and want to start an actual campaign>session 1>players C and D can't make it>session 2>players C and D can make it, but player B had plans he couldn't change>session 3>repeat of session 1
Are interspecies pairings allowed in your game?
>>97341502Basically every megacorp figured out how to turn into the US healthcare industry and everyone is a debtslave, depending on how useful a debtslave you are you can get cushier jobs and better benefits.
>here's your savage and evil creature bro
>>97339666They have interstellar travel, meaning plenty of energy by our standards, and an energy crisis, meaning they need a ton to run their everyday lives.And they can't figure out a nice empty planet to colonize? Come on. Somebody in command just wants to play cowboys and indians
>>97346334Pandora is orbiting one of the stars in the closet star to the Solar system. They probably haven't found any other potentially habitable planets yet.

>>97346085I'm not talking about their gameplay, I'm talking about the top-down idea of "I'm playing a cool character who has a face" Vs "I'm playing a faceless corporation". The first one is way more appealing for most people. In general people want to play characters, it's why commander and games with leaders have become the norm
>>97344668Gateway by itself is better than either core set by itselfIf you get elevation too that gives you quite a bit to play with. I have no idea how "fun" just those two sets together are though
Power as a single number or attack and hp as separate numbers?
Is there any standard software to visually design and format cards or do I have to make something like a Photoshop template and make each individually?

>>97340928The models were released in a promo pack with the card game as a teaser. It's still an exclusive game to be played with minis, it just isn't out yet. They just announced it way before release for some reason.
>>97335394>>97335223The CEF plastic Frame sculpts are so bad I'm actually considering learning 3D modelling just so I can make better ones for myself.
>>97345047unfortunately DP9 suffers from a terminal lack of ambition, but maybe that's how they've survived for so long on the periphery of scifi miniature wargaming when GW raped everyone else
>>97345179It's better to stay niche. Avoid all the shit that's going on outside comfy mecha game. I'll settle with the third Heavy Gear game doing well and the minis getting updooted.
>>97345047Heavy gear has a big problem with the metals being good but insanely expensive, the plastics being cheap and shitty, and the 3D prints being sold as regular shipped products at almost regular price.And in all cases the shipping is fucking insane. I really hope they pull out some kind of better system than this. Or someone just makes another votomsclone. I'd happily buy a different game with the same scale and wheel legs.
I know there's Everyone Is John, is there anything like picrel? A lighter Fiasco-style game, mixed with Monster of the Week? (Ideally not PbtA please.)Also what are /tg/'s thoughts on SP? Both the comic and the movie.
>>97344560You don't need a system for slice of life. Just do freeform and maybe a random roll for vibes here and there.I never felt the urge to find out what scott pilgrim is.
>>97344560Slugblasters is basically Scott Pilgrim if he was a skater bro instead of a band kid
First Order of the Stick of the new year is up.
>>97346114And the larger intro shot for propriety
>>97346360that was actually fun, thanks for the dump
>>97346346durkon didn't get a death scene
>>97346327>>97346336Dang, I thought that was a genuinely cool buildup to the defeat of the evil sorcerer king
>>97346431He's not even in the establishing shot after Belkar comes back down. Rip Durkon, killed offscreen. He only got to cast one spell the entire story.
What’s the edgiest tabletop game of all time
>>97343357Shitter of the Doo-Doo Lord which pitches itself as a DARK and EDGY alternative to 5e.
>>97343498Anon, I promise you, if it were meaningfully advantageous for us to be eating placentas, we would have been doing so for a long time with elaborate reasons to justify it.
>>97345349Himmler was literally a vampire though.
>>97343362Nah, Ventangle is though.
>>97343357Surely Beast deserves at least an honorable mention here.
Oh no no no
>>97344555Get fucked, bootlicker.
>>97330394It ain't that deep. The many flavors of Spess Muhreens are just cool themes to make them stand apart and sell codicies. We have and entire chapter of mongolians, a whole chapter of vampires and even had a whole chapter of Africans. We have Knights Templar in both Crusades and Davinci Code flavors. We even have an Admech chapter. Space Wolves were the vikings, it stands to reason they should probably stay distinct in their themes and general look instead of just being Ultramarines that swapped laurels for pelts. But hey, I'll probably just continue to ignore it and the dindu heads can remain on the sprues
>>97344797Can i have your Basketball-American heads? I use them for Salamanders like the Emperor intended.
>>97340769Ironically the Tau would be 100% against DEI or anything woke because it would be counter to what they see as the "Greater Good" where their society is 100% merit based, which is why they now have Humans bodyguards/Honor guard for high ranking Tau because of the training and how long they live with said experience.
>>97344580It's still a cold as hell planet where sunlight is fleetingly rare, straight out of Ray Bradbury's 'All Summer in a Day' where kids need to use industrial sized tanning salons just avoid vitamin D deficiencies. It's so hard to see anyone coming out of this world with a dark skin tone. >>97344797It's the agenda that bothers me. You got a mongol chapter, a literal black guy chapter, an edge lord chapter, but the space vikings need to be 'inclusive' because white people. >>97345873That could be part of the reason why the Tau got grimderped the way they did. I also think that the client races were, in a great irony, looked at by sensitivity readers and deemed 'problematic.' Why? The client races might be second base to the Tau but they are clearly recognized by the Ethereals as furthering the Greater Good. They all have their own strengths and weaknesses that the Tau not only respect but find a way to fit into their burgeoning civilization, often united only by shared misery at the hands of the Imperium- even humans join the Tau Empire. Still dystopian but it's clearly better than the alternative. This runs counter to DEI as not only are the Tau meritocratic, but the concept of separate species who have their own goals is a serious badnono according to the current fanatics in lower Blackrock management even with completely different biological setups. And again: a tiny nation with different values resisting a massive bloc more or less ran by obscenely rich aristocrats using a broken ideology to prop themselves up and actually succeeding might scare these people. Probably more than the Black Templars even. I don't even like the Tau and I'm standing up for them. Way to go Blackrock.
