> with the exception of episode 9, not even they like that one

Pretty much agree (though episode 8 was, I’d argue, slightly more trash than 9)

But I did kinda like Exegol (the location anyway) and the look of Sith Eternal stormtroopers.

And the idea that bigger chunks of the DS2 might be found on other, less inhabited, moons of Endor wasn’t a horrible idea (the dagger thing was stupid) or the wayfinder stones feels like something force users of the past might concoct to keep their sacred sites secret.

… basically there’s bits and pieces from the sequel trilogy that I’d like to cannibalize for my own Star Wars adventures, so long as I can completely disconnect them from the god-awful story and shittier elements.

Literal retard take. Clonemasters using forbidden technology and kicking off a series of destructive wars is kino. Lucas's faggy "lol palpatine was the puppet master of both sides the whole time" is something a 12 year old would write and think was super edgy and cool. You're not a 12-year old are you anon? You have to be at least 13 to post here.

Test

>>97834064
Even Lucas's ideas for the Clone Wars seem to have changed somewhere between the OT and prequels. In an earlier script of ESB, Lando was supposed to be a clone, and he mentions how there's not many clones around after the Clone Wars and implies that clones have a bad reputation because of the war, which would suggest that the original idea was that the war was against clones (which would also fit with it being called the Clone Wars: the PT conflict would make more sense to be called the Separatist War or the Droid Wars, since that's what the Republic was actually fighting against).

>Clonemasters using forbidden technology and kicking off a series of destructive wars is kino
No it isn't. It's generic sci-fi slop which appeals to the lowest common denominator. The kind of shit you'd see in a subpar sci-fi comic series in the 50s. "Oy vey le misterious evil dude has clones to invade le galaxy" bleh.
>Lucas's faggy "lol palpatine was the puppet master of both sides the whole time" is something a 12 year old would write and think was super edgy and cool
Palpatine is the TRUE villain of Star Wars. You're just such a fucking retard that you take Sheev to be a bog average villain that gets defeated and replaced in a week. Palpatine is Satan, his conquest of the Republic using political manipulation and fearmongering is TRUE kino, it's realistic and not just pew pew nonsense. It also requires thought to understand unlike Zahn's trash. Chances are you don't even understand the PT and think the politics are boring lmao

>Lucas's ideas for the Clone Wars seem to have changed somewhere between the OT and prequels
No fucking shit retard, Lucas' ideas for the OT changed between movies. That's how stories go
>Lando was supposed to be a clone, and he mentions how there's not many clones around after the Clone Wars
In early ANH publications Stormtroopers were mentioned to be clones, which was what Lucas adapted into the Republic Clone Army. In the novel Palpatine was revealed as the manipulated Emperor and that was tweaked in ESB, RotJ and the PT
>which would also fit with it being called the Clone Wars: the PT conflict would make more sense to be called the Separatist War or the Droid Wars, since that's what the Republic was actually fighting against
No. This is retarded. Is WWII called "the Axis War"? Is the American Revolutionary War called "the British War"? It's called the Clone Wars because the conflict heavily revolved around the new Clone Army which got mass media coverage.

>>97834303
White spirit from the oil wash got under the varnish on a bunch of the models (new bottle, don't think it had mixed properly or something) and the paint started tearing away. Not much to be done to come back from that.

It's fine, I've done a better job with the airbrush this time and starting putting a bit more contrast into my colours as well so they're coming out looking better than before.

Kaldheim 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!"

Gunpla painters and scale modellers do spongepainting like that. It's a real technique.

>>97834376
NTA 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.

>>97827940
Looks very nice.
Only thing that looks wrong to me is that the upper edge of the left brown strap is still skin-colored.

That's how I painted my last sword brethren's cloaks for the most part, it is absolutely legit

As >>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

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 him
Tell 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.

>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.

>my player is... engaged with my worldbuilding and is interacting with the NPCs
Buddy, 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.

>>97828161
it'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 me
very 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?

>>97834401
7th 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.

Not 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.

>>97828867
Played 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."

>>97834028
If 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.
