I kind of like the thought of northern Italian dwarves. Think renaissance Italy but instead of city states you have dwarf holds. Medicis banking system is just the interhold banking clan now expanding to accept human deposits/accounts and this break in traditional exclusion causes a chain of events that leads to dwarfs now being in every major city across the continent. Or some crazy dwarf inventor goes too far and invents something destabilizing, like an automatic hammer which threatens the junior smithing and smelting guild positions leading to social unrest. Maybe the dwarf hold that mimics Venice just does Venetian things and therefore drives the entire campaign itself?

I really like Italian renaissance dwarves.

>>97223710
Lots of Renaissance stuff also fits in with dwarves. They would absolutely get insanely into marble sculpture, they would absolutely carve an operahouse into the mountainside just because the acoustics are peak.

Then the boat rocks. We're all retreating back to our boat to bid a retreat and I shit you not I have footage of a massive tentacle arising out of the sea. I'm talking kraken size. We get the hell out of there, shooting the tentacles as we start speeding back towards land. During the escape I slipped and cut my hand like a motherfucker on something metal, real embarrassing way to take a hunting injury. Infection has me holed up, but I should be fine long term, and we want to keep our heads down after that anyway. Still, can't sleep well. Trying to figure out how to kill the kraken and its pelagic zombie servants. My cred in Net0 is going to shoot up from all this good footage but I feel pretty hollow about that. Getting the information out there is important, but I'm concerned more with the practical threat this thing poses.

That's what's been up with good ol' GNP. hope you all are having a better time of it out there.

Goodness, that is certainly a dreadful discovery. Were you able to learn anything about the start of the attack? Shame about the infection but that is certainly some excitement you got. I suppose if the kraken sticks to that one area, and you took some remains, you could find a mystic to lay a curse or three on it. Wither it to death and all that.

Seance was performed by the others while I kept eyes on the town, made one hell of a breakthrough. Woman we found, she was exploring the woods for fun and stumbled upon the enfield horrors' lair. Tried to run away, they got her before she could make it to town. Strike team's going to clean out the lair today. If the monster's not at home, they'll set up some traps and wait for it to come back. About time we go on the offensive. Meanwhile, myself and a few others will hang back here in town, watch for feds and just in case the beast decides to come back here.

Is there any army other than Eldar (aspects), Blood Angels (sang guard, death company) and Dark Angels (ravenwing, deathwing) where you're encouraged to have units with multiple different color schemes?

>>97228037
Orks, Tau (vespid, kroot), Chaos, demons

>>97228037
Genestealers (they're supposed to be a guerilla force, so as long as you keep the fleshy mutations the same color scheme, everything else makes more sense to be all over the place)
Knights (if your band of Knights are Freeblades, it would be lore-accurate to have members from different houses alongside each other)

Some calculations because I got curious.

Voyager 1 took 35 years to cross the heliopause, which is ~0.0019 light-years from the sun. An archmage that can skip space should be faster than that—let's say 10 times, so 0.35 years. The nearest star to the sun is Proxima Centauri, ~4.25 light-years away. 4.25 / 0.0019 x 0.35 = ~781 years. Exploring the nearest solar systems is unrealistic at that speed.

However, what if the archmage has connections with a higher entity or some such? If we suppose that the entity is 100 times faster than them, it can travel to Proxima Centauri in 7.81 years. Add some permanent portals and exploring the nearby solar systems seems plausible. Then, add a few million years of age behind the entity and many other similar entities and exploring the Milky Way seems plausible.

>not be able to benefit from the increased strength and advanced systems
The ones not present in their armour? It's almost like the old writers had thought of this.

>>97228264
the old armour had to enhance the wearer's strength enough to make her able to move in the heavy equipment
what the writer thought about is clarifying that it's not enough to give them S4

don't take the text literally as dogma and think for a moment

>>97228264
what I remember is, it was strength enhancing but it no where near to the same extent and since they had no direct link it felt like there was a delay in when it would do what the sister wanted

>Magic should be rare, mysterious, superstitious. It should take time to use and be exhausting to cast
OP, my setting (using GRUPS) is like that. There are also no homosexuals in the setting, nor are any of the players homosexual. This is not a coincidence.

And yet the GM appears to be a flaming homo. How does that work?

>>97217677
Magic should NOT be rare.
It should be at minimum between uncommon and common. It should be well explained, yet at the same time it should not be given out like candy. Only few should have access to magic.
Small spells should be instant, without chants and require those depending on the spell's magnitude (not to mention specific reagents).
Magic should be powerful at least and bordering extremely close to reality warping if not being this, yet should also have the user pay the price for overdoing it.

>>97224424
It reduced a lot of the little specific rules and does progression different. But it's still basically the same game

>>97220814
>>97220814

They are really focusing on the whole patrons thing for this one, and so far it looks like every book is going to be (Patron Organization) Players Guide and (Patron) GM's Guide.

You're never going to get gems like Disciples of the Dark Gods or Lure of the Expanse which add things to the game instead of retreading old lore material.

>>97227266
It pisses me off so fucking bad they didn't just make a fixed up DH. The smartest move they made with that game was the focus.

>>97217635
Less clunky than DH but also with less content. I'd say if you aren't already heavily invested in older games it's a good way to start.

It's close enough to the original that I can still use a lot of the content for it with minimal changes. I generally prefer the changes but it would be nice to have a conversion guide to speed things up when redoing content.

I usually try to take at least one step away from just blatant switch the names around theft, but I don't think I've ever had a fully original idea. For fantasy warcraft 1 and 2 were huge for me and the Dominions series is even bigger. The closest I have come to outright theft is running a near 1:1 of the original RE1, puzzles and all, with a few changes, and I created a city that was heavily based on Carcer City from manhunt, with my own gangs, but they had a fantasy bend

>>97171614
My most recent setting is modernish, so the two biggest powers in the world have all kinds of 3 letter agency types, that I have based on everything from the CIA, to SPECTRE

>>97227159
rugged geography. Plenty of uninhabitable features on the map carving territories apart.
That makes cultures more insular isolated and allows for diverse cultures to prop up.
Greece is the third mosr mountainous country in europe. Therefore in the small valleys, nooks and crannies different city states propped up. Macedonia is mostly flat filled with rivers and lakes. So it was a kingdom. You get the gist.
The Mesopotamian city states were all found in a fertile region dominated by rivers surrounded by inhospitable environments, so regions were cut up by these rivers and their offshoots and made natural borders for city states developing.

revised Temporal Anchor:
>You bind your very essence to a fixed point in the flow of time, warding yourself against imminent harm. When you cast this spell, note your current hit point amount and location. After 1d4+1 rounds have passed, or at your choosing (an immediate action), the spell takes effect: your hit point amount and location in space are immediately reset to the exact point at which you cast temporal anchor, and you are cured of any and all adverse conditions (including spells or effects that would possess you or exercise mental control over you) that were inflicted in the elapsed time.
>Any attempts at teleportation or planar travel automatically trigger the effect of temporal anchor.
If your original point in space is occupied, you are shunted to the next-nearest free space and take 2d6 points of damage.

Temporal Anchor is seeming like a 9th-level spell too at this point. Along with Time Stop, these make for a good trio of time spells.

>>97227963
Alternatively, Temporal Anchor could also dispel positive effects, which might balance it a bit more.

>>97227892
>>97227963
Right yeah, worded like this they both make the 9th level cut. What's funny is that, by RAW, temporal anchor can trigger off of time stop rounds, negating whatever backlash you might've accumulated via self-inflicted spells during the time stop

>>97227977
Nice catch. I think I will add "you cannot cast this spell while effected by Time Stop" then.

>>97227977
>>97227992
Last post before I head to sleep, but perhaps if the spell resistance is removed from temporal shield (leaving it with just "no hp damage" and "freedom of movement") it may be suitable as more of an 8th level spell after all.
