>>97835513No one can comprehend the mind of the noldorfag. Not even the noldorfag.
>>97835524I mean considering that is what he seethes about the most, makes no sense that he spammed a normal general elf thread over one that was actually about human/elf mixing.
>>97835533There was at least one person sperging in that thread. Him or the 2.0 version, it's hard to tell. Either way, don't try to reason with that level of autism. That way lies only madness.
>>97835559That guy to be fair was the 40K Eldar lorefag, not the Noldorfag. He stopped after an anon talked him down nicely.Noldorfag on the other hand can't be stopped.
>>97835569He admitted he was only there to troll. >>97784057I do what I can to report both of them, but the jannies are largely useless around here.

>>97835434Only thing I like on the new models is the slimmer sentinel blades, but even they're a little fucked because there sword blade is partially blocking the gun muzzles.
>>97835501Thank you!
>>97835483needs a little more love on all fronts mangnamely being really meticulous about cleaning up every last mold line possible and actually attending to all detail like soft black undersuit joints and brassy casings in the magazines and maybe some color on the bolter scope lenses and suchneeds moar dark wash all over too to pick out all the recesses nicely
Hmm, my word bearers 3k list is almost done, just 480 points to go...I could fill it easily with 2 plasma tactical support squads in rhinos...or I could paint 6 of my plasma Bombard saturnine and 1 rhino, which would be more fun but probably less useful

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. For posterity's sake, the old mega will still be kept active even if it's unlikely to need updating: https://mega.nz/folder/70QH0BBa#Eg-blxYQKkY_C02wErnFTQ>third party sources for making trenchers:Comment too long.

>>97835399shoto/ptero makes it really boring imo, all other characters are better
>>97835409Winr exists so your statement is incorrect but I don't really see the issue with Shoto. His character arc from shitter to world champion was absolutely earned.Though I will agree that Liberator has cooler side characters.
>>97835399I hate Liberator because longstrip/webcomic is a shit format.

>>97784073He doesn't want you to go somewhere else. He just wants to bitch and moan and whine and sperg.
I'll start>D&D 5E is a heroic fantasy game (I didn't say good), trying to do anything else should have you using a different system.
>>97834934The Basic Rules 5e PDF is superior to the full books and rules for that edition of the game. It's a fully playable game. It's easy to learn. The only thing in the PHB is a bunch of retarded character options when you level up. Shit that shouldn't be in the game in the first place. The DM can make up, steal, or download infinite magic items, monsters, or anything else. Holy shit I feel like half you guys are retards without a creative bone in your body. Or illiterate.
>>97835369... this is the best you can pull? Seriously?
>>97835312I feel like you learned one rhetorical device and decided that was all you need.This isn't just about what's a mechanically good game. Yes if it was all about that people would just play a limited number of centuries to millenia old games. But that's a narrow idea of what a game is and what can make it good. People didn't start doing all this shit for no reason. They did it because every genre of more modern board game, card game, miniature game etc. has particular qualities that make it unlike other games in positive ways rather than just negative ones. This doubly so goes for games with a huge hobby aspect-its not a disadvantage that you have to build and paint your game pieces. That's part of the draw for most people. The Dnd point is extra tenuous because any experience playing as a kid underlines why an rpg framework is important to that experience. Because everybody remembers getting in a loop of "well I have a faster gun so you die". "Well I have a gun that shoots bullets back in time so you die". "Well I'm wearing armour that makes me immune to bullets". People who say they're exclusively interested in the quality of gameplay are baffling at this stage in /tg/ spheres. On the one hand they could just stick with highly abstract classic games, on the other hand they could get into competitive video games. Instead they hang around an orbit of hobbies where clearly gameplay is just one part of it and where their gameplay will be, obviously, much less refined and elegant than other easily available games, and in which that gameplay is watered down by hobby, creative, imaginative and aesthetic dimensions that are an integral part of their appeal to most people who engage in them.
>>97833562>>97829324The trolls are starving. (If you want me to feed you, define "roleplaying")>>97833672The decision to include that bit was to add even more "mechanics speak" at the table. It's not an endorsement of the mechanic.
>>97833615I think you have to prepare some things. Folks like discovery and learning about the world they are imagining. If you are improvising every detail it can become a little unsatisfying. I do absolutely agree with you that prepping "situations" rather than "plots" is meaningful. That, and letting whatever story is being told change based on the actions of the characters. Like many things in life, it ends up being a moderation of improv and planning.>>97835150>>97835186NTA. I think there's merit to preparing some things that players can choose to interact with or not. Secrets about the world for players to discover (or not). As well as preparing - in advance- for what characters encounter based on their prior actions. I agree that preparing an expected outcome or limiting the player choice to solving any given problem is bad GMing.
Now that the dust has settled, is it the D&D killer it was hyped up to be?
>>97830779Demon Lord (essential 1e) is unapologetic in how it wants to make the world an irredeemable hellscape, and there is some scat related stuff in it to push this concept. Weird Wizard (essentially 2nd Edition to Demon Lord) files alot of the overtly over the top stuff and keeps it grounded to a more neutral fantasy that can be shifted darker or lighter as you see fit. The core rules are also largely better than Demon Lord as well, just not as much content simply due to being the newer game.
>>97828410What actually makes it different from typical D&D fare? I've heard a lot of good things, but seeing yet another d20 fantasy game made my eyes glaze over.
>>97832339I don't know about Weird Wizard but do know Demon Lord. Here's some of the differences that improve the game >You gain a level after each adventure.>Max level is 10>Previous two points make for short campaigns so it piss easy to actually finish a complete campaign>Your stat modifier is your ability score minus 10, so a 12 in strength would be a +2 and an 8 would be -2>All trait checks are a flat 10 to pass>Game uses boons and banes mechanic which are situational modifiers. Each boon/bane adds a d6 to your trait check. Boons and banes cancel each other out.>If you roll multiple boons, you take the highest value and add it to your d20 plus trait modifier to beat the TN of 10. Same with banes but you subtract the highest d6 from your roll.>There is no initiative roll. Players act in whatever order they want then enemies unless surprised.>Rounds of combat are broken down in Fast and Slow round. Fast goes first you can move OR take an action, then enemies have their fast round. Then Slow rounds happen where you can move AND take an action. Then enemies get their slow round. You cannot take a Fast and Slow turn in a round, it's one or the other.>All damage is d6 based. >Character builds determine damage not equipment.>Game starts lethal and stays lethal
>>97820448Not really. In a way I think D&D is the best TTRPG for being a filter of the trend chasers and who actually are genuinely in the hobby. Same with Warhammer for wargaming.
>>97820448Nope. Where it does things differently, it's underbaked. Where it mirrors 5e, it's shallow. It feels built by committee from a group of people who liked some ideas but, somehow wanted to make them worse.For example:>I like the idea of a success/fail mechanic that includes a different axis such as advantage/disadvantage. >But rather than make it follow rationally from difficulty and character skill (such as Genesys) let's make the likelihood of good/bad complication be entirely 50/50 and create a needless metacurrency>We like PbtA moves and GM turns>Let's tie GM actions to a random metacurrency>Accessories like reference cards are super popular among hobbyists >Let's design our game so that it's near mandatory to include tokens and cardsIt's also incredibly shallow. Power levels scale wildly and challenges are fairly trivial. If 5e is "high" fantasy, DH is "coked out"

What's a good deck I can make for ranked brawl without needing to spend any rare wildcards?
>1-3 and 2-3 in drafts i drafted sally prideis it hell queue or is forcing wb a dumb idea or what? i had decent decks but just got btfo
>>97833558SanarCoinflip kinoEither you win on turn 5 or you lose on turn 5I queue roughly 30/40 Sanar games every day while jacking off, and am closeish to Mythic
>>97834678Forcing colors is rarely a good idea, unless your colors are so absurdly powerful that you can win with scraps. But also it's just variance, it's not like you drew sally every game.

>>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.

Feels good to finally go back to not being a nogames.

>>97834102Steve Jackson (UK) founded GW and Fighting Fantasy. Steve Jackson (US) runs Steve Jackson Games and made Ogre, GURPS, and Muchkin. The only confusing part is the Fighting Fantasy books written by Steve Jackson (US).

I do.
>>97830146Yes, and when what 3e and on calls "sorcerer" was introduced as a channeler in Player's Option: Spells and Magic. Except that they were a Con caster instead of a Charisma one, since it was linked to a fatigue system.
>>97833209It didn't help that Sorcerers (and other spontaneous casters) were screwed over by the metamagic system and the Wizard got bonus metamagic/item creation feats.
>>97831790>same proficiencies,Sorcerers got all simple weapon proficences while Wizards started with only club, dagger, light crossbow, heavy crossbow and quarterstaff. Didn't mean very much as the crossbows were pretty much the best of the simple weapons.
>>97833193I recognize, logically, that you can be 25 and this would still be true, but that makes me feel old, so I'm going to assume you're 18 years old and be angry that you're on my lawn. >>97833196Genuinely curious what your native language is. In English, "mage" has zero female connotations.
>>97833916Wizards and wise men and sages were often fortune tellers. Star readings and whatnot. Maybe even an oracle or seer.
