>>96822902Correct.
Plasma cannons on Scimitar Jet bikes?
I want to read about gengis kahn mans but pirate bay failed me. Anyone know where i can get the torrents for the white scar books?
>>96828102I really like that the chapters have those excerpts from in-setting historical books.
Got a sweet deal on characters, got Kharn, Angron, axe praetor, apothecary, chainfist cataphractii dude, cataphractii dude summoning a bloodletter, Evander Garrius, three JP dudes and one on foot. All that plus 10 despoilers converted out of 40k zerkers for $40.The only problem is that I was planning on going IF. I guess Garrus is there and one dead IF on Angron's base, lol.
We need to bring back old school sword and sorcery, pulp, heavy metal fantasy. I want barbarians with oversized axes, chainmail bikinis, grotesque monsters, and that whole mix of bloody violence and sex appeal. Zoomers would absolutely love that stuff if they were actually exposed to it.
>>96827847>if you're a Lankhmar fan then you would probably allow small amounts of magic like cantrips and such.I was going to say this, Lankhmar and other S&S stories admit of the protagonists using minor magical spells or rituals (Kane and Elric are both powerful sorcerers but neither is a central example of the genre), so it should it should be an option for the PCs to have access to minor magic. It's probably best reserved for one character in the group, though, and shouldn't be thought of as a core element of character choice like it is in most fantasy games. Instead it should be weighted so the norm is that nobody has it.
>>96827937>best reserved for one character in the groupAgreed. I always liked what The Black Company did in regards to magic. Most units in the army have one or two spellcasters, but they have incredibly minor magical abilities.>Silent: Can manipulate insects, weak cloaking ability.>One-Eye: illusions, can protect tooth enamel.>Goblin: advanced age, sleep spell.It can also be a matter of scale. Like a true villainous sorcerer in S&S isn't just going around casting invisible knickers - they're consorting with otherworldly entities in centuries-long rituals to change the fabric of reality. There isn't a spell entry in the DMG for whatever heinous shit they're doing. But the underlying factor is that, as a man, they're weak to swords, no matter their power.
>>96782264>>96780155Natural Sexuality needs to win, otherwise we are doomed. Literally.Another thing:One thing that would be cool would be the idea of Black Men -not- as sexual ravagers.Africanos with a paladins code, or even (LOL) a sexual idea of racial purity would be so out of left field in 2025 that it would auto-win if done right.If you can beat the psy-op, you win.

I always heard of Drew's, Stronium Dog, Nemesis the Warlock and Rogue Trooper (the last one probably the most as the classic Beakie marines were lifted designs of Souther troops from RT). But I can see some similarities.

>>96820497You left out how Critical Role lured in theater kids and normies in 2017-19 as heavily as it did. Or how WizBro shat the bed by trying to turn D&D into a lifestyle brand, then attempting to pull the OGL. The normies didn't care so much about that, but the most entrenched and aware players did - and they're most of the DMs out there. And even before that blunder, WotC had made not of how bad 5E was at on-boarding DMs.I'd say the biggest problem with 5.5/2024e is its even less of an iteration than 3.5 was, so most players didn't see any reason to purchase it and just kept playing with their 5E PHB + Tasha's.

Why chess is so poorly monetized?
A while ago, I was brainstorming for variant pieces for a chess-themed RPG I wanted to make, called "Caissa's Crusaders". I've only really gotten as far as drawing up the piece graphics and most of the movesets for each piece, but here's what I have so far.The pieces near the top are the newest ones (everything from the Pig upward), and I haven't quite decided on movesets for them yet. If there's interest, I'll post my spreadsheet with what I have so far.
>>96828627Would have back in the day, but now that she's ruined her arm hair forever...
>>96828664You want people to pay licenses for their chessboards? Pay per game? What exactly do you want to see monetized?

>>96827694lmao Salvador Dali was thoroughly based both in art and spirit. I saw his art gallery in whatever art museum is near Tampa and it was great. I don't care who he supported.

I remember playing 1e back in the day and wondered if 2nd edition is worth anything?
>>96825081I don't get how, in a world sacrificing ten doves to Bophades will help you get good business, Christianity managed to be the top religion in Europe and Colonialism even happened. Because I think in Darkest Africa and North America the tribals would be sacrificing to their gods, who are real and exist and have power to fuck shit up, and I don't think you're going to do shit to even a weak god with a black powder weapon. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit aren't real, as far as I understand, and if they are they aren't the top dogs the Bible makes them out to be. And even before that, why give up Zeus and Bophades or Odin and Thor for the fake news that is Jesus?
>>96806042Trinity and all the SPU stuff. Not that they're perfect, but at least they have clear rules. Scion's rules are vague and self contradictory in a way that all later storypath games took efforts to avoid, especially the SPU stuff.
>>96749470How baked is the setting into the game? Would you recommend it for an American Gods type of thing? Specially with the New Gods.
>>96827931In 1e it was explicitly that the gods left the world to avoid getting bound by fate they existed at different times in history, but when they broke history destroying Atlantis they all retroactively left. 2e is way more handwavey about it, basically asking you to accept it so they can have their pseudo-masquerade. Not sure why they made that choice, when it would have been just as easy to say, "the gods are removed from the world as a whole, but individual incarnations and other supernatural entities pop down now and again."
>>968281561e's Fatebinding made a certain kind of sense although it seemed very clearly a load-bearing conceit to explain why the world could look so much like our own but still have its supernatural cake and eat it too. I get that, fair enough: Bophades didn't want to get tied down to your shit so even if you sacrificed ten doves to him in the prescribed manner on all of the correct days he wouldn't give you success in business as promise, breaking the do ut des system. But like you say, in 2e, it's just handwavey. It's just so fucking inconsistent, and it's annoying that they go with the "all stories are true, especially when they contradict" except when it comes to Big Desert Three (those stories are all fake, chuds). >>96828037It could work, although I don't think the gods get much out of being worshipped in Scion, or at least it's not as significant as it is in American Gods. I think 1e dabbled in things like the New Gods (and it was widely panned, if memory serves), but I haven't read enough of 2e to get a handle on it.
