Gal Vorbak fall on the far side of the spectrum of the daemon and host getting along and working toward a common goal. The other side is the daemon saying screw you and taking over, which are not as strong since the host is either actively trying to fight the daemon or dead. 1ed has generic possessed which are examples of the latter.

If you want to run daemons with 3.0, you have allied detachments and Esoterists open a aux detachment of 1-3 Brutes

Is this bait? Cody's appearance in Bad Batch was literally him talking about how even the regular clones are beginning to question Order 66 and their loyalty to the Empire as they have more time to reflect on it. He's visibly full of regret about it.

>but holy shit why is it so hard to incorporate basic user-friendless into interfaces.
Well, there's TinkerCAD... Which I guess might illustrate the problem quite well.. 3D modelling is all said and done a quite complex task, especially if you want any kind of computer assistance to keep you from just putting every vertex in its place one by one. As such the UI also get either somewhat complex as well, or the whole thing ends up very limited in capacity.
And to be honest it usually isn't that bad to get started as long as you have a video to handhold you through the very first steps of figuring out how this or that editor has been structured.

HeroForge proves it doesn’t need to be as complex as people make it out to be.

Been using TH-BJD Cream Pink as my workhorse resin (I would just use the grey Tough 74 but the fleshtone is actually useful for my other hobby of toy design and as minis made with the stuff are getting painted anyway there's no reason not to use it) and it's amazingly strong and gets good detail, but I've found one very annoying habit of it is, because it's quite pale, the support-side tends to get excess resin cured onto it quite easily, which makes one side of the model look kinda "doughy". I've found setting a higher lift distance, lower lift/retract speed and longer light-off delay helps a lot, but with my current settings I'm getting really nice prints that take fucking ages to actually finish. Any advice on good settings? I'm using a Saturn 4 Ultra with a regular exposure time of 1.3 seconds and 30 micron layers, for what it's worth.

Warriors also had multiple attacks, including sometimes slamming multiple of them into people doing AoO worthy shit around them, and decently more HP percentage wise.

In 5e you'd need to do something like:
Warriors get HD per level, +1 attack per level, 1 extra attack per 5 levels and add half their level to trained skill checks.

Rogue gets HD per 2 levels, +1 attack per 2 levels, damage multiplier for sneak attacks and add their full level to skill checks

Casters get HD per 5 levels, +1 attack per 4 levels, half level to skill checks and magic.

>>97207620
I usually here it being post-4ths that the gap becomes insurmountable by slot-efficiency of non-spell solutions, and this is theoretically simple to solve by making skills maintain a similar dynamic of lagging in momentary power for attrition insensitivity. But that'd require actually having robust skills allowed to do spectacular things, which requires either a LOT of hard lockouts or out-scaling the die to support soft lockouts to keep low-level skill-focused characters from doing high-level skill things off a high roll.

>>97207951
The issue with that is that it's an awkward proto-gamist emergent function dependent on no-diegetic-reason-given hard lockouts of weapon types and random loot distribution, making it extremely easy to fail to function from innocuous houserules for the sake of immersion or simple chance.

By modern TTRPG design convention, you "need" something like Trailblazer's Base Magic Bonus giving non-casters spell slots to fuel things that'd be a tradeoff for Wizards or riffing off Magic of Incarnum so Martials can directly use more or further scale magic items.

>>97208153
>5e was built based on one very bad game designer's idealized image of "powerful wizards and their fighter bodyguards" D&D built off of 3.X.
No, that goes pretty much all the way back as the high-level dynamic, a crucial difference being that combat casting used to be VERY hard to get away with without a meat-shield.

>>97208532
Than "Normal Dude" hitting with sword, sure, and some surplus for the resource constraints is fine, but some classes being bluntly out-moded is just bad game design. If you're going to give the Fighter a 1st-20th level progression at the same cost as a Wizard's, they OUGHT to be a valuable contributor all the way along this, even if comparatively limited in scope.

>>97209980
>No, that goes pretty much all the way back as the high-level dynamic, a crucial difference being that combat casting used to be VERY hard to get away with without a meat-shield.

High-level Warriors were still killing machines in earlier editions and casters want to ignore that truth. In 1e, a 10th level non-specialist Fighter with non-magical equipment and a longsword would deal roughly an 1/8 of an average red dragon's hp on their own each round. Give them 18/00 Strength (or Gauntlets of Ogre Power) and they will deal nearly a quarter the average red dragon's hp in a round. With a +1 longsword, they can deal more than 1/3rd. With weapon specialization more than 1/2.

2e massively buffed Dragon's increasing their HD and AC by incredible amounts, but warrior's still maintained similar levels of effectiveness against other 10 HD opponents. 3e further inflated monster HP by giving everything not a construct or undead a Con bonus while limiting the rate non-caster damage output increased with the diminishing returns of iterative attacks.

Also for the mech suit I'd suggest putting it as another 400cp option. Spidertrons are arguably superior, both from an offensive and build-potential point of view so they probably shouldn't be lumped under the same purchase unless you're going to upgrade the mech suit option somehow.

>>97205456
There's mods to start on different planets that change the tech tree to accommodate it. With that approach it's not inherently better or worse than starting on Nauvis. Having an initially safe zone on each planet is vanilla behavior and hunger isn't a consideration in the game so you could just say the suit has a system for recycling biomass using negligible amounts of energy or something.

Loads of them, though I don't think there's much reason not to pirate things. "Free" isn't a sensible requirement: what do you actually want to do?
Xenotactics is a great stripped down version of Infinity.
Do the Net Epics and Warmaster Revolution count as free? GW certainly didn't intend them that way, but the fan versions are technically distinct.
I think No Quarter and No Limits are WFB/40k descended free games.
There's a bunch of ultra short rules like OPR and FUBAR.
Most common I think are sci-fi skirmish games. I think Planet28 is free, and Star Breach, and probably loads more.

>>97209767
Thanks anon!
I'll admit something free can often times make something more appealing and even affect one's enjoyment of it because no money (for the rules at least) were spent.

im not 100% sure if this is the right place to ask. but iv been trying to decide on a smaller squad type of wargame.

I liked Trench Crusade, but apparently, there is some weird drama related to it, and the player base shrank. turnip28 seems fun, but the rules look a little fucky.

I'd just like to play a smaller-scale squad game with a playerbase I don't need to pull teeth to find a game, with rules that don't have a lot of bloat, so I can build an army for my hyper fixation.

Any ideas?

There is also the absence of anything like panties or thongs. I hate those things in fantasy, especially fantasy that's based on medieval era. Closest equivalent to modern female undergarments has been invented during the renascence.

I don't there's one single best sexy art artist from the D&D 2e era, there were so many masters of the craft its mind-blowing. People who play D&D today have zero concept of just how far we've fallen.

>>97209727
>Would you guys allow a PC to use mending to repair a pelt that was damaged while it was being skinned?
Yes, a pelt is an object and mending explicitly fixes rips and holes. However, If a cleric cast "Make Whole" I'd turn the pelt into an entire animal corpse, because a corpse is an object and a pelt is just one part.

>>97209791
I concede, these two are about equal in sexiness. So much in fact, I keep mixing them up in my head.
>>97209859
I guess for me its a question, when does the pelt as an object that's to be mended back to its original state, become that object. Surely not when its still on the animal - at that point its an organ of the animal. If the damage was done as it was being skinned, wouldn't that be part of the state to which the mending has to restore it?

>>97210113
>If the damage was done as it was being skinned, wouldn't that be part of the state to which the mending has to restore it?
Why would it? Don't forget magic is meta-physical, not physical. It doesn't need to have to be coherent mathematically or logically, it just needs to make sense intuitively. It makes complete sense for a spell to heal a pelt to be a perfect pelt rather than a perfect corpse, simply because the person casting the spell internally see "a Pelt" as a different object from "a Corpse". Don't overthink it.
