>>97834458Kaldheim is funny to me because of its elves. They're like a bunch of inbred dixies who can only be moved to action by talk of either poaching or the lost cause of their ancestors. And they all believe "Skemfar will rise again!"
>>97834475oh the elves for that reason?not being based on nordic culture yet them being niggers?same applies to the valkyrie/angelsok

>>97833623Gunpla painters and scale modellers do spongepainting like that. It's a real technique.
>>97834376NTA but I want to add that while it is quite good technique, it can easily create rather rough surface if you are not careful with thinning or keeping paint on sponge from drying. I recall some other anon asking about this few months ago and I posted two of my examples, including said rough surface (probably created when dabbing was leaving sponge surface shape on still drying and too thick paint). But correctly done produce similar effect to airbrush work but with better precision.At the other hand, if rough surface is actually your goal (because, for example, you want to paint ad-hoc camo made by soldiers on field or similar), it's way to go.
>>97827940Looks very nice.Only thing that looks wrong to me is that the upper edge of the left brown strap is still skin-colored.
>>97833623That's how I painted my last sword brethren's cloaks for the most part, it is absolutely legitAs >>97834397 pointed out however it's very easy to get a rough surface as you can see in the left pic on the brightest layers; in my case I didn't mind it too much, partially because I thought it looked cool on what is supposed to be a fabric texture, and mostly because I attenuated the effect with a thick layer of gloss varnish anyway

Hey /tg/ I have a problem. One of my players is a genuine incel. He's 27 and I'm pretty sure he's never had sex. He definitely hasn't gotten laid in a while. He's not really ugly just kinda weird and awkward. I feel bad for him. But he is taking his extreme thirst out in the game. >every time his character, a human eldritch knight, comes back from our adventures he always tries to play up the angle of "we saved the town, where are the girls to suck my dick as thanks?">he constantly talks about how his character is 6 foot 2 (he's 5 foot 8 irl)>he talks out of his ass a lot about medieval times and says that peasant girls were way healthier than modern women.>says how farmers would be begging to marry their lithe 17 year old daughters to him>he talks about medieval demographics and criticizes the DMa works building (which is actually kinda shit to be fair) >you can just tell how excited he is talking about how there should be a dozen villages between these two cities on the map, like he is stopping just short of talking about how many nubile virgin farm girls are there for his fighter to fuckWe tried talking to him about it but he twisted it around to make the rest of us sound like we were fucking gay or something. Also his character is too important to the story to kick him, and running him as an NPC would suck the fun out of it since there's be a lot of the DM just roleplaying with himself while the rest of us watch. So....any advice? Its not worth ruining the game over by kicking him, and nothing is so blatant to be a clear social violation, but the dude is just oozing incel energy and I feel like I should subtly suggest to the DM something that will set his head on straight, and possibly help cure his mindset. Any ideas?
>>97833928>>every time his character, a human eldritch knight, comes back from our adventures he always tries to play up the angle of "we saved the town, where are the girls to suck my dick as thanks?"If funny, haha. His character can pay for them.>>he constantly talks about how his character is 6 foot 2 (he's 5 foot 8 irl)Cool. Most characters will be well fed and nutritioned, so that's not an unreasonable stature.>>he talks out of his ass a lot about medieval times and says that peasant girls were way healthier than modern women.Remind him that you really don't fucking care about historic, this is a fantasy game.>>says how farmers would be begging to marry their lithe 17 year old daughters to himTell him to masturbate before coming to games nights then.>>he talks about medieval demographics and criticizes the DMa works building (which is actually kinda shit to be fair) Migration and trade did exist, and unless lore says otherwise, will probably exist in this setting. Any big city will have multiple ethnicities to spy, don't be a fag who insists cities must be fully monoethnic.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>97834174>We tried talking to him about it but he twisted it around to make the rest of us sound like we were fucking gay or something. It's not about being gay or faux-purity (we all wank). It's about sidetracking the plot with unnecessary horniness.Even in a dedicated erpg, where horniness is anticipated, sex scenes are a terrible idea because they derail the session and take up game time.Also his character is too important to the story to kick him, and running him as an NPC would suck the fun out of it since there's be a lot of the DM just roleplaying with himself while the rest of us watch.Well that's your stupid idea. You can just cut him out and fudge still. If your game is as shitty as it seems to implicate itself to be, a bit of 'rolling with it' won't do anything too bad.Kill off his character. Fucking do it. Flip the script.
>>97833928>my player is... engaged with my worldbuilding and is interacting with the NPCsBuddy, if you consider that a problem player you have no idea how bad things can be. Tell him that you're not comfortable with the way he talks about sex all the time and that those themes aren't going to be something you want to go into at the table. If you're giving other players girlfriends and romantic side stories then, well, you've already made your bed and now you need to lie in it with him.I'm going to end this with some sanctimonious bs about how if he harasses anyone in real life in YOUR house where YOUR wife with lopsided tits lives then you BETTER kick his ass to the curb.

>>97828161it's a light game. not as elegant as knizias, but only a bit harder to teach. you go fast by matching a bunch of symbols together from up to three cards from your hand, plus one from a shared crowd card. there are a number of suits with abilities like cornering, healing, and attacking. whenever you take an action in a suit you advance its skill marker. depending on the crowd's whims you have opportunities to advance the skill marker double. once the skill markers start landing in the bonus zones, your speed when you take those moves gets much much stronger. it turns a game of simple hand optimization into constant tough value judgements of when to prioritize upgrades over your current position. there's not a ton of player interaction, but the mind games around when to shield from attacks and using whips to maximum effect based on position do enough for mevery timeless vibe and plenty thematic for my tastes
Is 7th continent actually a good game or overhyped bullshit?And are there any good exploration games at all?
>>978344017th Continent is massively overrated for sure, since it's a product of a time when these types of games didn't exist. 7th Citadel is a significant step forward on the core design, and the best exploration game I've played yet.

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.

>>97821296Not enough armor-piercing, total positive modifier death. I also don't fuck with Grail's durability mechanic. I think the game should just include templates instead of the weird blast/flamethrower rules, but that's less a critique and more of a personal opinion. They should maybe rework sultanate entirely too, they play like a lesser version of heretic legion.
>>97828867Played a game today, he failed it four turns in a row. I still won the game but man it felt like shit. I wish more actions were like the Sniper Priest's aim where they get bonus dice. I feel like it should be maybe +1 dice. +2 feels like a "why is this risky I will never fail" but +1 is "you probably should but there's still a chance it won't work."
>>97834028If your playing Sultanate like HL, you're doing it wrong. Heretics are about having a moderate number of well-equipped units who thrive on status effect and elemental negation. IS are about an asymmetric force of specialists with the cannon or the bull as an anchor for war band composition.

>>97832624It'll be a mess and I'm curious to see what they'll do. I'm sure they'll make everything worse. Imagine the retcons...
>>97834100>surely associated with the Eater-of-SoulsIIRC in woof cosmology a vampire's Beast was actually a literal shard of the Beast-of-War. Eater-of-Souls kinda does make more sense tho.
>>97834280This is a bit of an asspull on my part, but I think that might just be projection. The Garou look at the frenzy of a vampire and see Rage, so they ignorantly believe it comes from the same place. A Wight is not just a font of endless violence but a cruel and dangerously keen predator. If it knew how to commit diablerie before wassail it will do so if possible.

>>97825122that isn't Gladius
>>97815788So let marines activate twice obviously. That becomes their niche
>>97826025there's no need for that. you want a tension between small elite reliable units and big awkward stupid ones.
>>97796373I think it is mandated as part of the 40k game's identity to not do alternate activation. Probably brand identity or something similar.I don't want to believe that this is GW being stubborn and/or incompetent with innovation.

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. We also have two excellent beginner guides created by Anons with feedback from the thread that you can check for help:>n00b DM's Guidehttps://pastebin.com/EVvt6P0B>n00b Player's Handbookhttps://pastebin.com/XALkXkV0>Troves, Resources, Blogs, etc:http://pastebin.com/9fzM6128Comment too long.

>>97833703>I have the following green flags:>>AutisticAs an Autist I have never been more confused.
>>97820120might be a standard in ACKS since I haven't read it but the growth time seems too quick? a baby needs at least a couple of years to be a toddler and if we are waiting for an adult than at least 14-15 to allow for reproduction.anyway Human herding will likely be very niche since raiding for humans or demanding tribute from a local settlement or even just ruling a town with an iron fist would be easier. it might be a thing in the underdark or otherwise very desolate lands.
>>97833895>using cellular automata procedures that could be rolled out by hand on pen and paperIf you're happy with something that takes forever to do by hand and generates something that looks wrong, sure, it can be done.
>>97834247NTA. I have multiple acquaintances with actual diagnosed autism that I play boardgames with. Admittedly I've never played D&D with them, but I would: They're considerate, low-drama people who are genuinely passionate about games and are pretty easy to get along with. Occasionally you might need to tell them some things explicitly when they don't get non-verbal communication, which I generally have little difficulty with. That one thing is not always ideal, but there's MUCH worse out there.Of course not all people with autism are like that, particularly the highly politicised ones, but it sounds like the Anon you replied to has a similar experience to mine.
>>97833692Because it's still a working retroclone.Also, currently there are no detailed rules for handling troops movement, military campaigns and so on without the DM handwaving them.>>97833038>kobolds are roughly the size of children so we release the wardog Good choice, the wardgog is a must at lower levels, especially against kobolds, goblins, morlok and similar.>the dog is bought down by the elite koboldsWhen we started, we had 2 wardogs in our group (plus a summoned skeleton one by the necromancer).>>97833703>Talks politics at all>Related to the above, complains about this or that being bad or problematic, or conversely spergs out over someone being different than them>Phone at table>Being a dick to another playerYeah, kick him.

>>97834153Most people tend to forget that chaos armor is basically a mutaded armor. Warriors in Chaos Wastes mutate and their shit mutates with them, be it their armor or their horse. I mean, sure - some buy armor that already looks like a chaos armor, but is basically heavy armor. True chaos armor is armor that was twisted by energies of the warp. So - give enough time to a bretonnian knight on Chaos Wastes and he WILL look like a chaos warrior, even if he didn't buy anything from Karak Dum or chaos dwarfs (or just take from a fallen enemy).
