Why is Age of Sigmar so universally despised? I thinkthose rat dudes look rad, wish we had them in 40k

It would be stupid to make AOS Total War right after Fantasy when 90% of factions are just remixes of each other
40K is the right step with way more money maker potential

>>97163436
how the fuck is 40k the test property to do AoS?
How does that even make sense seeing IF they did need a test property, surely Warhammer fantasy was already that to begin with?

>>97171264
Hey, cretinbecile, AoS skaven alone outsold ALL of TOW, and that is despite GW going 'hell froze over' and offering TOW trash at prices 50% lower than all of its other ranges. QED.

Then there is the fact that the ONLY thing in the whole TOW range that sold out was Cathay, thanks to anime/asian diaspora, army that looks far more AoS than the rest of TOW (and can be easily subbed 1:1 unit for unit for Cities of Sigmar AoS faction). Double QED, kiddo :]

>>97173023
I think that anon is dumb, but to play Double's Abdicate for him: I can see a lot of the systems they're developing for space travel in TW40K being ported over to a hypothetical AoS game and their weird Realms. Ideally an TWAoS would feel like a hybrid of TWW and TW40K, where you have 3-5 Realms with full maps to conquer, but those Realms have weird teleport points between each other, with certain factions having their own faction-specific realm travel as well (Lizardmen and Skydwarves can fly between Realms, Skaven can tunnel, chaos can brave the wastes or some shit, etc).

I'm not really interested in a TWAoS game, but they could make it neat if they did it right. Granted, I don't even expect them to do TW40K right.

Welcome to the New School Revolution General, the thread dedicated to games derived from the OSR movement.

>NSR is a subcategory of the OSR, it mostly follows the same play style but experiments further with the mechanics and settings.
>Broadly NSR games have a gm, a living world, are rules light, deadly and focus on emergent narrative, interaction and exploration.

>What is this thread NOT for?
Meta discussions or drama of the games and its creators aka shadowboxing with twitter, reddit and the OSRG (frens with osrbros)
>stay on topic

Go ahead. Ill stand by that i posted those threads, and the character sheets, but thats all i posted.
Every post thay you dislike is not a particular strawman, trollcow. I postef the threads and the character sheets because i didnt want /osrg/ to go from a general discussion thread to an echo chamber for a cherry picked contested definition of what a movement is. It foesnt matter how much you personally dislike a system and try to censor discussion, people will keep talking about it because its on topic and part of the OSR.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Fishfag is such an odious and revolting piece of subhuman refuse that he's managed to accomplish the unthinkable: bring peace between OSRfags and NSRfags.

Both are in Rick Roll Trove.

I'm wondering, though, if it's worth maintaining this Trove.
It's buried among the OP's other links so nobody looks at its content, and nobody recommends it when someone is looking for a rule.

And on top of that, we have idiots who post bad links and get their kicks from trolling rather than helping their fellow wargamers.

Anyone with time to waste care to take a look at my WIP Vintage Cube for the boys?

Definitely taking suggestions for the last 36 cards too if you have any. I haven't played since Mirrodin so I don't know shit.
Most of this is from lists already online of cards that do what my friends say they like(d) about Magic.
Don't worry about the specific versions, that's just what CubeForge defaulted to. Except the Godzillas. I put those on purpose.

>but I thought that Doom mainly used robots.
Technically - yes. Practically - it's complicated. The best explanation is probably in Loki Agent of Asgard where Doom and Loki fight in a physical and word battle. Doom explains that there is no way to tell who is a robot and who is Doom, and even he himself could not tell it since he programs his doubles to think they are Doom. With Marvel magic being narrative based and Doombots being such a vital part of his legend it is no longer possible to put a clear line between them. And on the other hand if Doom acts outside what Doom is it may suddenly occur that he was just a malfunctioning Doombot. (or at least one that decided to step outside his role).

>schrodingers doombot

theres probably been a story about two doombots fighting each other right?

>>97177499
The MGs are useful for structure destruction and I anecdotally find that keeping that false weakness in the CT does affect enemy behavior. By keeping a half ton of ammo in the CT they seem to evaluate my weapon sides as less of a priority and spread out their damage more evenly, so I end up taking less damage to repair overall. Small lasers out and half MG ammo solves the weak CT and leg armor problem. I never pick the Marauder over the Warhammer in MW5 for this reason, as that SRM6 is more more than the AC5, and the arm position of the Whammy just has an easier time hitting those tiny vehicles.
>>
>>97177499
You'd be surprised by what DPS those weapons can do in cqc, many people do exactly what you do, but I've found in MW5 in particular is VERY generous with ammo, so my build is to take a half ton of SRM/MG ammo, slap that as a heat sink, take the medium SB laser and SRM6 stream, put your weapon groups as follows.
>RA PPC FG1
>LA PPC FG2
>2 SBML/SRM6S FG3
>2 SL/2MG FG4
Stagger your PPC fire, don't just double fire as the resulting heat spike can fuck you and I've found that more heatsinks isn't always better, as unlike tabletop you don't instantly dump heat and you suffer no penalties for heat. When closing to ML/SRM range use those and stop using PPC's, and if overheating use the SL/MG's as you'll still run negative heat though slower and I've found that some damage is better than no damage.
>>
>>97177536
Realistically? Yeah. However the dumb as fuck floating crits make that a suicidal move.
>>
>>97177558
>MW5 Marauder
Take out the AC5 for a medium rifle and use that tonnage for more sinks and armor, the medium rifle is a AC10/PPC lovechild with downs syndrome but it's range does match PPC's and it's slow rate of fire actually helps diffuse the heat. Or just use LL/Heavy Rifle for a all rounder.

It's has a similar load out to the 3S. Downgraded the peepers to LL. Ditched the ac-10 and six pack. I assume because 4/6 ain't free. Would make for an ok succ war merc refit.

>so is anyone that does anything for fun or as a side objective to something else, worthless?
Anyone that passes that fun over to a machine to do instead is worthless, yes. It's that complete inability to understand this that makes your kind so fundamentally broken. You know what normal people do if they want to do something creative? They participate in creativity. You know what transartists do? They avoid it entirely and then try to show off slop like it means anything. You have no value. None. It's innate for you. It's probably even pointless me explaining it to you, you quite literally lack the mental faculties to understand it.
