Where's it from? I have a mate who's mad about towers.

I'm painting the house from the movie Up and unfortunately the only pastel colors I have are vallejo game color. They don't cover well and with all the different colors I find myself painting over stuff a lot.


Can you guys recommend a neutral paint from AK or TTC or even nu-model color or citadel that I can mix with my brigther colors to hopefully make better pastel colors? I was thinking of a deck tan color AK or VMC.

Swede Santa, your gift safely arrived, thanks a lot!
Sadly the spider got completely obliterated by the shipping, but the robot is salvageable and the big grasshopper seems unscathed. Also the random resin base is a godsent because I was just in need of one of that exact size for a Belthanos mini.

An off-species dragonmark is supposed to be exceptionally rare, practically one-of-a-kind. It is not something to be tossed on some random NPC.

https://5e.tools/book.html#efa,2,dragonmarks
>Mark of Prophecy
>You might bear a mark unrelated to your species. For example, you can choose to bear the Mark of Healing even if you're not a Halfling. Your dragonmark has nothing to do with the house's family line. It might be a direct mark of the Draconic Prophecy, or it could be an aberrant mark that happens to duplicate an established one. You'll probably never meet an NPC in the world like you, and House Jorasco might not claim you.

The current captain of the ship is a halfling (and seemingly unconnected to House Lyrandar, which is mildly out-of-the-norm for Lyrandar, but not totally abnormal).

The previous captain and pilot of the ship was a Storm-marked shifter, which is highly unusual.

>exceptionally rare, practically one-of-a-kind
That's my point. An airship haunted by a ghost that allows anyone to operate it is drastically more rare than the race of the individual with a specific dragonmark.
That's the sort of thing which is a massive plot hook by itself, and has far more implications on the setting than the writer deciding the ghost should be a shifter instead of a half-elf.

Some long spiel about how, allegedly, 5e 2014 was narrativist and simulationist, while 2024 is disappointing due to not being such? I do not know about this line of argument; I do not think 2014 was ever narrativist or simulationist.

>But when I held the PH24 in my hands and paged through it, the realization came over me that PCs don’t need the help anymore. They’ve been failure-proofed. There’s almost no error a player can make, at this point, that will end their character’s adventuring career prematurely—not unless their DM goes full adversarial, which I don’t condone.

>In 5E14, it seems to me, the designers began with a narrative in mind, then thought about how best to implement that narrative mechanically. The sense I get from 5E24, on the other hand, is that the designers began with mechanics they wanted to implement, then came up with narratives to rationalize the mechanics.

What do you think?

>>97205827
you're entitled to your preferences anon, its a free basket weaving forum. I dont see it in the same light and like I said i think your running on some dubious info. the stability issue particularly, for any game 10+ years in print theres always bumps. and not to mention plenty of acgs dont even see the 10 year mark.

>dont fuck with pod from china
pretty sure their POD is out of like twin cities or some shit. it's that ghost galaxy forgefire/antiforge shop that spun off ffg when peterson bought out. same fuckers printing keyforge. not to say they cant outsource from there but the turnaround is decently fast so if its china its not coming by boat.
>dont fuck with kickstarters
usually a turn off for me too, and I avoid KS parasite publishers at all costs. but putting a single launch on KS (the new starter box) in the life of a game doesnt automatically make a company CMON. they said up front it was purely for promotion since KSs get a lot of free press from toobers, bgg, etc. and that box is hitting retail like 6 weeks after KS delivery and there were no exclusives.
>dont fuck with team covenant
if that tree is poison fruit, thats also sorcery, FAB, hubworld, warlord, gudnak, alpha clash, the LCGs, you're missing out on a good chunk of the better /acg/ games. but just like with all those partnerships, if you hate TC just dont use their preorder thing. get it direct from publisher or from the FLGS. nobody is making you watch their fucking youtube show.

Anon is just a hypocrite.
If anon actually did proper kitbashing as he claims, his models would not be using those bolters and the shaved off emblems would have been replaced by GSC symbols.
Or he would have done the lore accurate thing and just deface and cut up the imperial eagle since GSC want to look like Imperials till the very end so shaving the eagle off would be a strange thing to do.

"Pointless insignia everywhere" is one of the worst elements of GW's modern house style. Except in one product line: Necromunda. Perhaps if you'd assembled Necromunda models you'd know that pretty much all gang weapons are generified.

>>97182523
Thousands of years ago, a pre-bronze age group of exiles were burying their king and, during his funeral, the queen witnessed a falling star cross the sky and land in the mountains. Taking this as a divine omen, she led her people in pursuit of it.

There they found a mountain, split open by the falling star which had buried itself deep inside. Crawling down through the hole it made the disovered a massive stone of some unknown material. That night the queen beheld a vision in her dreams of a great unknown sea in a land with no stars or moon or land in sight, and when she awoke the next morning water the fallen star was weeping water, pouring from no possible source.

Her people stayed there and build a temple around the fallen star were it laid, taken to worshipping this miraculous source of water and the increasingly complex visions that the queen was having in her dreams. They began to ritualistically imbibe the water from the fallen star, which served to make the queen's visions stronger and allowed her to pull others into her dreams as well. Their aging slowed, and the queen spent more and more time in the dream realm, until one day she stopped waking up at all. But for those of her people who can follow her into the dream, they would still see her in their sleep and carry messages from her back into the waking world. Her soul, no longer bound to her flesh, was becoming something greater than mortal. And as her mind expanded to comprehend the cosmos, she came to understood the danger humanity was in from sources we didn't even know existed.

Her followers, no longer completely human, stayed underground longer and longer near the source of their immortality until they could no longer tolerate the sun. Spending their newfound immortality carving out the mountain from within like ants and expanding their temple into a cthonic city over the course of centuries.

>>97203009
But as time passed, the less human her followers became. Their bodies twisting into forms adapted to an alien environment on the other side of the star, creatures of the dream.
Most of them went mad, or devolved into mindless creatures. The best among them fully joined their queen in her dream realm, to assist in her defense of the world from outside forces. And a few, a precious handful of sorry individuals, were left behind. Inhuman bodies, with intact minds, but unable to cross that finally threshold into the dream.

These discarded Keepers remain behind and watch other the slumbering bodies of their ascended brethren, keeping their link to the material world intact in case they ever have need of their mortal shells again. But none of their sleeping comrades have awoken, even briefly, in a very long time.

Eventually other humans moved into the mountains, which were now filled with strange creatures or monsters spawned from the transformative influences of the fallen star. A settlement was built near the mountain of the fallen star, and rightly concluding that it was the source of the monsters they hunted, and those people came into conflict with the watchers under the mountain. Some of the Keepers died int he resulting attacks before the invaders were repelled, and the surviving watchers took this warning to heart. The entrances to their necropolis have been sealed, and the outer passages have been filled with cultivated creatures and hazards to take care of trespassers.

Now, a long time later, a city has been built atop the mountain of the fallen star, completely ignorant of the vast network of tunnels beneath their feet. The city is full of scholars studying the fantastical flora and fauna that can be found here and nowhere else in the world, with only the most secret of societies among them having any true inclination of the powers behind them.

And thats the backstory of the megadungeon in the game I'm running.

>>97202769
Realism is so disgusting.

>>97191219
those aren't dungeons, those are just... dangerous places. what's the point of saying that they are "dungeons"?

in my last setting dungeons were usually leftover holdouts for bandits, or orcs, or goblins, or kobolds.
ruins were a separate thing, usually just full of monsters, and a puzzle or two, maybe a giant ancient automaton.
but a dungeon was a trap filled slog, usually with very few wild creatures, but a few well designed combat zones that favoured the defenders.
they could be built into a cave, or into some ruins, but a dungeon had to be BUILT, usually by the folk who hid there gold/loot there.

>tree spiritis really fucking hate the wood elves

If they are random warhammer person, wrath and glory and soulbound respectfully. Simple as piss systems, that are fun to play for newbies and aren't headache inducing for people who are new to this thing like the d100 ones, you run campaign with one of those, then you can start moving towards d100 ones

>>97207631
If you'd ever done board game night where everyone else just "learns as they play", you'd know you're basically playing only 10% of the game as you have to stop and re-explain everything for the fiftieth time to the fuckers who refuse to understand the rules because someone else is keeping track of that shit.

And with the amount of book-keeping in most rpgs, it's exponentially worse.

Basic Fantasy and Cepheus Engine. One's class-based, fantasy, d20. The other is skill-based, sci-fi, d6. Both are free. Try both.

That gives you a range of experiences for what an RPG is. Then pick what you like or the best mix and run that.
