Pigheaded Edition>What is Trench Crusade?An alternate weird history 28mm/32mm tabletop skirmish game. Based on the art and lore of Mike Franchina, whose illustrations you may have seen floating around on /tg/ for a several years now, and designed by Tuomas Pirinen, one of the original creators of Mordheim. It's grimdark, it's visceral, and it's very Blanchitsu.>What's the QRD on the background?The Knights Templar turned heretic and opened the Gates of Hell when they took Jerusalem during the First Crusade. Over 800 years later the war is still ongoing as technology has developed to a pseudo diesel-punk WW1 standard and a third of Humanity has sided with the Infernal Princes.>How do I get started?All the files are free online:https://www.trenchcrusade.com/rules/They used to be split between the website and the discord, but no more.

>>97831699Its just mordheim with ranged focus. its fine. As another anon mentioned here, take this setting and slap Turnips rules on it and it would be something cool. I feel like for a WW1 game with crusades its sorely lacking in scale and simplicity to just pick up a game. Campaign games are horrible to get people to start let alone finish. The setting of TC is cool, I feel its actually the rules that will hinder it resonating more.
>>97831280OHHHHHHHHHH BIG MAN! BIG HARD MAN!!
>>97831699I quite like the rules, they are incredibly simple and easy to pick up. It is sad that they aren't anything special. I expect rules for larger armies and vehicles and such.

>>97829875do you recommend the game? how do you find people to play it?
>>97831270>Can't and won't name the card in the OP or even bother to correct his mistakes even once.I'm sorry but what even is your point here?
>>97831302>can't even identify a card game by its artGo post to elf thread you fucking poser. Or complain to someone who gives a fuck.

>>97831275nta, but I think anon in the last thread said it well: a very polished magic clone/ offshoot. if you like those kind of games like mtg or fow or duelma then you will prob give the gameplay 10/10
I win the argument.
>>97830881Why are you railroading DMs with do's and don'ts
>>97831172Dming is a binary, you're either good or you're shit.
>>97831191That doesn't answer the question, provide a detailed step by step explanation with 8 peer reviewed sources of why you think railroading DMs is fine but not players
>>97831236It's not possible to railroad a DM, you're retarded.
>>97831421Are you not railroading the DM by refusing to play unless your very gay demands are met?Sounds like you're the one who is retarded
Prostitution is the oldest profession. It has always existed and it will always exist. The presence of prostitutes and brothels is crucial for making a game setting and world feel realistic and lived in. Otherwise, it will lack all verisimilitude. So, tell us, how have you incorporated prostitution into your game?
>>97830052mods altered my post to protect fuckeehttps://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/97822226/

>>97831965kill yourself, spammer
Forager is the oldest profession.
>>97817547Hide one thread? YeahHide a dozen threads? NoThe simplest answer would be for mods to actually do their jobs and permaban the vermin, its not like his post pattern is not instantly recognisable. Just like bumpfaggot, who now that I think about it has a very similar post pattern to pukee. Both of them are easily recognised, have easily identifiable post patterns, and both have been an utter plague on this board for years, but the mods do nothing but defend them.Sidenote, the useless fucks have even stopped banning NiceDeamonette when he shows his face, even if he no longer uses his name his post style instantly marks him.>>97817648Every little sage helps anon, every little sage.Also, I fucking loathe this gay captcha system

>>97812436>we let L.N.B get away with it tooI actually suggest letting him die and replacing him with his son, Eugene L.N.B., who'd be the exact same unit, but keeping all the lore - Charles' story happened, he met Akamnandag etc. and on the meta level we could say he was playable in an early edition. Emperor or not, this man fucked, he'd make a heir eventually. For simplicity's sake we could use actual Eugene as base, regardless of whom Charles is likely to marry in this timeline. He'd be using his military career to build up clout and political support and basically become a mixture of his own father and Boulanger OTL.
>>97828279It would be a fun parallel to his OTL colonial adventure.If that's the right word for what went down.

You do play with your kids, right anons?
>>97832072my dad had a fireplace like that but replaced it with a massive wood stove which he replaced with a pellet stove. By the time I had a place for the wood stove he scrapped it for a few bucks
He did nothing wrong.Everything that he ever did was for humanity
He had untreated autism and did a poor job.
>>97777202refusing to explain to his sons what he was doing or the dangers of chaos is his biggest mistake. going to fight horus was his second. his third and final mistake was his lack of humanity. the emperor is completely responsible for everything that has happened to humanity and you are lying to yourself if you think otherwise.
>>97777202>He did nothing wrong.>Everything that he ever did was for humanityHe's a massive sperg dictator. Worse than that he was absolutely horrible at his job. The average dipshit anon could do a better job than the Emperor, granted the same powers.

>>97829677Black knights are a thing in Arthurian legends, anon, such as Sir Moriaen and Sir Feirefiz (who, admittedly, is half-black)
>>97830959True to Britain, as many British historians are saying. Regale me with how many knights were absolute fairies who took Moorish cock up the ass.
>>97827759>Femnoids are inferior.On average, maybe. To you specifically, definitely not.
>>97831044That would be the French.
>>97831951After 1066, what's the difference?But I'm still right - just a different brown, I guess. I know BBC history - Britain was always black.
So, now you need to decide. Do you close your eyes to what you've seen and go back to sleep?

What DG books should I read to get into the setting? Outside the core rulebook, that is. I know nothing about it other than a vague idea it's kike X-Files for Cthulhu.
>>97831765Handlers Guide for the big overview, Conspiracy for the Conspiracy Era, Fall of Delta Green for the sixties era. There is also the original DG book, Countdown, Eyes Only and Targets of Opportunity.There are also the short story collections and novels. Basically any book is going to have some lore. The Handler's Guide had the most, but it's pretty dry.
>>97831765There's quite a few short story collections, but:"Strange Authorities" has the novella "The Rules of Engagement". This is peak Delta Green fiction.After that, read "Through A Glass, Darkly" to see how Delta Green transitions from The Conspiracy to The Program.There is also "Denied to the Enemy" for WW2-era DG, but it's honestly not a very good book.

>>97831451>No airbrushThis method is fucking magic for black armour:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUM1ShfnrD0If you want to go a bit further add some metallic paint chipping on the edges and some brown or rust coloured oil paints (or acrylic washes if that's your thing). You could also try purple & green oils if you like that version of the Iron Hands scheme.
>>97831645I tried this for a couple of my DA but they came out a little too blue. I kind of like it and it works well as a base but I kept overthinking the weathering.
Since I have to re-do my SoH, should I continue doing the trim in gold/brass or should I do it in black?
>>97831679You always have the option of substituting individual paints (swapping for a warmer grey, or something else that's more desaturated for example). The overall method though is great imo.
I just read Little Horus. That was a gripping psychological thriller and the bolter porn was sick. One of the best short stories for the Heresy I've read yetI see a lot of critique for Abnett does his writing get worse later or something?>Not that he was afraid of change. Change was, he always insisted, part of his ruling character. ‘The melancholic humour is protean,’ he said. ‘It possesses the quality of autumn. It is transformative. It makes me the accelerator of death, the enabler of ends and beginnings. I was made to clear away this world ready for renewal. To change the order of things. To cast out the false and enthrone the true. This is my purpose. I am not afraid.’
I never realized how many players suffer from aphantasia and insist on using miniatures. Are you one of them, or do you embrace the unmatchable graphics of theater of the mind?

>>97831807It's definitely the inability to use imagination. There's nothing wrong with being told dimensions and positioning and just keeping it in mind for combat.
>>97831518RPGs grew out of wargaming, no matter how you try to deny it.How does that make you feel?
>>97831518It was really weird to me when one of my player, six year into a campaign, told me he couldn't visualise the description I was doing. Usually I had a small illustration to show on a screen but for a few weeks we had to play without it.It felt so fucking weird. Like I've been with this person for years and realize he wasn't fully human.

How important is artwork and visual aesthetics to a tabletop game?
>>9783158550% off a rulebook should be artwork if you want a good system
>>97831635>not as important for player retentionTrue, in that the rules and playstyle have to be consistent with the art that drew players in. Otherwise you end up with a supposedly grim post apocalyptic world and you end up with modern fallout.
