the crimes of 7th ed were design-by-accrual for a game that hadn't had any major rules changes in two decades, and problems at high point limits like the tournament standard 2000 points, and that the big rule book list of universal special rules were bad for sales-demos. A lot of armies could make pretty fun lists at 500 or 750 points, where games were still manageable, and model counts were about what a 1500 point game in third edition were.

The funniest part is that the first time they put out examples of these layouts they intentionally didn't include measurements bc the "didn't want to be too limiting, this is just a rough idea" but within 24hrs the competitive crowd had reverse engineered exact measurements from the image.

>What is /awg/?
A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks, or peoples' homebrew wargames.
The >>>/tg/hwg thread doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to more specific games.
This thread isn't tied to a game, a publisher, or a genre. Let's just talk about fun wargames. Any scale, any company, any miniatures.

>Examples of games that qualify.
A Song of Ice and Fire, Argatoria, Batman Miniature Game, Carnevale, Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings,
Deadzone, Dragon Rampant, Dropfleet & Dropzone Commander, Freebooter's Fate, Frostgrave, Full Spectrum Dominance,
Gaslands, HeroClix, Kings of War, Lords & Legends,
Maelstrom's Edge, Malifaux, Marvel Crisis Protocol, Masters of the Universe: Battleground, Moonstone,
Oathmark, OnePageRules, Open Combat, RelicBlade, Rumbleslam,
SAGA, Sahipkıran, Sludge, Space Weirdos, StarCraft, Stargrave, Sword Weirdos,
Urban War, Void Admiral, Warcaster, Warmachine, Xenos Rampant, Xenotactics...
...and anything else that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread.

Judging by your link 1/35 is better for all around bigger vehicles? How is 1/48 look to you compared to 1/56?

But yeah I basically want to add some ww2 tanks to heroic "28 mm" and have only ever used silly sci fi vehicles until now. Would like to have a panther shoot up some warzone imperials and such

I mean this is supposed to be 1/35 sherman and 1/48 tiger. The tiger looks like a runt and the sherman looks life sized to me but I dunno.
>>
>>98523837
I find irl vehicles tend to be longer and less chunky than a lot of 40K style and scifi vehicles so 1/35 doesn't work for me.
1/48 is I think the most functional in most cases and where to go if you want them to look heroic scale.
Mixing 1/48 and 1/56 can start looking very strange and I have some I got in 1/56 first and am going to chop up to use as wreckage where it won't be as noticeable.
This one's a Leman Russ, a 1/48 tank and a 1/35. The 1/35 gets too tonka toy for me but ymmv.

Strangely enough, the 1/48 scale is closer to life size. Its more about how absurdly sized you want your future machines to be.

Whatever is most likely to break the game in some way. If I'm abusing the rules, I'm playing as intended.

After that, I can "play" anything, provided I understand what I'm allowed and not allowed to do within the confines of the rules. Game doesn't matter as long as I'm having fun while coming dangerously close to ruining everyone else's, so I tend to end up D/GM/Reffing a lot. If not, I gotta be real cool and not be a dick, and I'm a dick on accident a lot anyway.

Keep them, online sellers are crooks. I ordered a starlight RIRA apollousa for $80 on tcgplayer back when she got banned, they sent me a "pristine condition" that was literally bent in fucking half. The seller refused to replace it or give me a refund, and when i got tcgplayer itself involved he literally begged me NOT to ask for a refund or do a chargeback because "i'd ruin him", and in exchange he'd give me back a whole $10. After i sent the card back and he received it of course, which would cost me a lot more.

I got my money back and his store no longer exists, but that was the last time i ordered anything off of that site, i now buy local because i can inspect the card thoroughly, and i don't mind paying a little bit extra because i already get fucked in taxes and shipping costs anyway.
>>
>>98523886
So he was both greedy and a retard, huh? He should have went with at least $160 if he wanted to offer you hush money
>>
>>98523914
He just wanted to scam me and it didn't work. I've never sold anything there, but a lot of friends told me he wouldn't lose his reputation for refunding a client, he would in fact keep it if he was civil about it, since you can still leave a review. Tcgplayer doesn't automatically give your store a low rating UNLESS more than 50% of your sales have poor reviews and/or were refunded.
He likely knew a lot of people would want a starlight apollousa after the ban (since that's when she'd be cheapest), so he put his old damaged copy on sale and hoped he would be able to shift the blame to the company who shipped it.

Mostly that the hobby of traditional games especially more nerdy side of the hobby it's just one big ouroboros of people getting attracted to the hobby just to be eaten and shit out if you're not already competent with social circles or have a tight-knit friend group.

It's sort of the scumbag Steve catch-22 situation. The most nerdy hobby that requires friends attracts the most nerdy friendless losers.

>What is Lancer?
Lancer is a TTRPG about narratives, customizable mechs,and the pilots who crew them.

Set thousands of years in the future, Lancer imagines a future where humanity has spread to the stars after weathering terrible ecological collapse on Earth.

Players of Lancer adopt the roles of mech pilots. Some groups will fight for Union, working to rectify the crimes of previous administrations. Others, for a corpro-state, working to advance private interests while lining their pockets.

Lancer offers deep mech customization, a wide range of player backgrounds, and a system and setting with room for any story you and your group want to tell.

If you want to try something a little less mainstream, Modern AGE from Green Ronin has a cyberpunk sourcebook, and it works quite well. Also, in a rules-lighter style, TechNoir also does an excellent job of capturing the feel of cyberpunk with a lot less finicky rules.

in the games I ran with marvel multiverse, the large number of crits arent a deal breaker

in practice, it just means you "fail forward" a lot
so if you set a TN to save a citizen from falling debris to a high level, such that they are almost certain to fail, but they still roll that fantastic on their roll
thats usually an opportunity to tell them "you shield the citizen with your body but take heavy damage"
though RAW would say that you should still fail at the task you just get a bonus out of it, IE you fail to save the citizen but the villain stops to gloat at your failure opening him up to an attack

a true critical success is actually fairly rare. since you need to roll double 6s plus the marvel face, which is a 1/6^3

You don't need a particular dice mechanic to represent randomness or luck. All dice mechanics are random by definition. You can represent consistency and flukes within a single rule system.

i like to self-insert in warhammer 40k because there is something strangely comforting about the though of letting your own body to be mechanized for the purpose of violence and war. sometimes when you dont have anything better to do in life, the weaponization of oneself for a greater cause or just the sake of it can be a good remedy for a mediocre life

Since the Marvel idea of people randomly gaining superpowers in freak accidents is stupid, let's just say rules are similar to MHA or X-Men and people across the world are able to spontaneously develop powers through some sort of gene or mutation. In a setting like that, how would heroes, hero teams, and villains function while being realistic? How would the general public and governments respond to the concept of super-powered individuals?
Would also love to hear any general superhero worldbuilding ideas you anons have so I can steal them.

How heritable do you like your powers? Is it like MHA, where they typically come largely from one or the other parent or a mix, or should there be a larger personality/randomness aspect to it?

BTRC makes a game called Eschaton, where some alien or extradimensional power bestows superpowers on people, but only onto people who would use them for some kind of cause. So the people with powers are all idealogues, zealots, or fruitcakes. There are no "reluctant heroes". White supremacists, Black Lives Matter activists, national jingoists, religious zealots, ecoterrorists, Antifa, Grifters, and very occasionally good people who would feel the responsibility to use them for good.

Predictably, things go to shit. It's a good setting and a pretty good game. Even if you don't like BTRC's EABA game engine, the book is worth the read to apply its game world to whatever system you do like.
