So how do allies work in this edtion? Seems ok to ally between the imperial factions at least.
May anyone share the status on what is completed and what is being worked on?Most specifically which codex is left to do.>>96654466Prayers to your dude. I will play a game in his honor.
>>96654411ADD THE LINKS TO THE ROUGH DRAFTS OF THE CODICES TO THE OP, YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING NIGGERShttps://sys.4chan.org/derefer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmega.nz%2Ffolder%2F5SxSAbTK%23xTn9hz0PGp1_kMYT0SZXuA>>96654466My deepest condolences, man. I know how it feels to lose a friend, it's fucking horrifying.>>96655190This image is (mostly) correct. We also did Movie Marines, Feral Orks and Genestealer Cults. I'm supposed to be working on the supplemental scenarios contained in the rulebook, but life has been getting in the way. As soon as I can I'll resume my work. All codices are rough drafts, and need to be edited.
>>96654514Technically allies do not exist.Some factions like Chaos and Imperium have rules where they can borrow units from other codex like for example Imperial Guard or Witch Hunters.That said, nothing is really stopping you from making an army with allied units in this editions there are rules for them, but consider them more an example than a hard rule.
>>96654466My condolences for your friend, and his family, and to you. Losing dear friends is always hard.

An undiscounted capstone perk that lets you gain power the more you ensure hardship, like how Saiyans get stronger when they're close to death. Would an effect like "drawbacks give you 100 extra cp for this jump only" be a good way of representing that? You still have the perk in future jumps and it works as intended, but I wouldn't want to fuck with the cp balance of those docs.Jumps generally don't touch the actual jump doc resource systems, right?
>>96656252Balance is an illusion. Instead of restricting it say that it takes precedence over any statement saying otherwise and have a hearty laugh at all the resulting impotent screeching.

Members of this entourage get to enjoy a whirlwind life of carefree luxury, until Gonti tires of the relationship and brings it to an abrupt and often deadly end.Gonti's probably the one that left him there.

>>96653352>Judging rules based on an author's life experience and looksNot related to the two rules you mentioned, but a person with no military experience could do a ton of research and write a ruleset that is more realistic than a veteran who has no idea about game design.I think research and lack of bias, combined with experience in game design and penchant for a ton of playtesting is what makes a good rules designer, rather than their specific life experience or... height!?
>>96655576>research and lack of bias, combined with experience in game design and penchant for a ton of playtesting is what makes a good rules designer, rather than their specific life experience or... height!?That's true.For example, we have the very hot wargame designer Pauli Kiddhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyHDRv0DMb0&t=6sAnd her Heiho rulebook, which isn't very excitinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYXgaA_JKPk

>>96633521>>96634916Hey bro! I'm posting the flat colors so get an idea of how it's going to look once I add details. Light and shadows, and texturesHis eyes and the blades are gonna look metallic, dame with the tail rings, earrings and some other things I'm gonna stylize the tattoos a bit more. I know your said the horns are the same color as the skin, but I made them a bit darker so you can tell they sprout from the head... Unless you specifically want them to be the same color as his skinHope you like everything as it goes
>>96654395It looks fantastic so far! Changing the horns is perfectly alright it looks great like that. I also really like what you've done with the tattoos so far, as much as I do like certain specific cultural designs (such as Norse or Celtic for example) they technically don't really fit with a fantasy campaign and I've got a serious passion for worldbuilding and such so I love it when something looks or feels totally unique to the fictional setting. Even something as simple as giving a setting lore accurate alternatives to common greetings and farewells, like instead of "goodbye" (a contraction of "God be with ye") one of my favorite books has stuff like "Swift water and bright sun" because the land is plagued by undead that are destroyed by such. Stuff like that, the little unique pieces of a world, REALLY appeals to me as a storyteller, so I love that the designs seem wholly unique while still keeping certain vibes you'd expect from such things. You're doing amazing so far and I couldn't have gotten a better drawfriend for this character!

Why are there many types of elves, but dwarves are always just dwarves?
>>96654416Based.
>>96649149I've always thought that dwarves would use more pikes and mass crossbow formations due to caves favoring that sort of chokehold straight path combat, and picks due to prevalent mining. Axes are more of a woodland thing? though they could have strictly militar/fuck elves connotations, similar to how polearms are evolved from farming and swords are a warfare only thing for humans.
>>96651027>The Ruby and Sapphire dwarves are arguing again>No, I can't tell which one is which>Maybe it's about the Emerald dwarves?

all ya replying to a puckee spam thread ffs
>>96626254I'm already prepare for this scenario, so yes
I've really been enjoying reading through Runequest, so I don't understand why it seems so underrated in modern gaming.There doesn't really seem to be much interest in the current edition compared to early ones.I was hoping that there could be more excitement over its potential.Especially with the changes coming.
>>96474663so i haven't read the earthsea books but i am going to soon but it has me thinking, how much of glorantha was inspired by earthsea? a lot of glorantha was also inspired by tekumel in general i'm wondering about gregs main insparations for glorantha were
>>96654342not much.
>>96654342Greg most wrote the early stuff in the 60s and was focused on the Malkoni/Western Glorantha.But throughout it and Sartar is a lot of Arthurian ideas, names and themes.Hence why he turned most of his energy to Pendragon.
>>96654342Regarding the Earthsea, first book is really great and third or fourth is decent. The rest is full of rather dull slice of life and mulling over feelings. Le Guin has rather dull, heavy prose.Regarding inspirations, Guide to Glorantha vol 2 has a long list of the sources in the appendix K(!)

>>96650450>I don't like aliens with big giant things on their heads or tentacles for hair. Just creeps me out.I mean I'm a sense freak, so I like tentacle hair as it's going to be a prehensile sense organ rather than inanimate filaments; Twi'lek Lekku are suppose to be like this according to the expanded canon, but Togruta's are larger AND stiffer.As we see with Live-action Ahsoka, this just creates a cumbersome cosmetic prosthesis.>>96650788>To be fair, it's not surprising that the seppie geth would have their masters' ideological motivation.The problem is that the Reapers are a stopgap "Solution" to the development of a Synthetic/Organic divide; Turn entire Civilizations into a singular techno-organic space squid!Not only is it a terrible "Solution," it's predicated on the fact that ALL Sapient Life follows the same path of Scientific Development leading to such a conflict, but in the current cycle that's ONLY happened with the Quarian and even then the Geth were pretty damn chill about the whole thing.
>>96586065I haven't because I've been having a hard time getting a space game off the ground. My players go along with things but they aren't great at taking the initiative themselves, so without someone telling them "go here and do this", I don't know how they'd ever travel the stars.

>>96655075Also hire a social media rep whose job it is to reply to raging speculators and Disney adults complaining on twitter and troonsky with the most repulsive soijaks possible.
>>96655389RETVRN to AD&D as a basis. Make Dark Sun the new default setting and make it even more offensive. OK, done.
>>96655075I'd be a bit softer on "Universes Beyond", moving them from Magic: the Gathering to the oft-ignored Deckmaster label, treating them as licensed TCGs on a compatible-though-not-necessarily-the-same system going forward. This both gives a hard cutoff from MtG formats and allows experimentation with root premises like the mana-base to "backport" into funky side-formats of MtG.Just printing Challenger decks to demand would probably do for nuking the secondary market and double as a fast-track to competitive, as it organically crushes any attempt at scalping meta-chasers by selling whatever the best-performing players are using.Doing away with the Reserved List speculators, however, has lawfare cost attached to it. As far as I know it hasn't actually gone to court, but the Reserved List comes from an explicit public statement to the speculators that the company would not be reprinting certain cards which COULD be legally binding in some cases.>>96655389Navigate the low levels of Basic, AD&D 2e, 3.5, 4e, and 5e into a common core ruleset to be a new Basic set, then use the Expert, Companion, Masters, and Immortals names to segregate tiers of play with a baseline nominally adhering to a mix of 4e and 5e "progressively more spectacular murderhobo" but with clearly-laid-out optional rules tweaking it to TSR-era norms as feasible. Nu-Advanced then branches off from Nu-Basic with its differing baseline for higher levels specifically dedicated to improved TSR-era compatibility, but keeping the door open to WotC-isms to support the 3.X madhouse. Then have boxed sets for previous edition emulation that have only the rules in use and conversion guidelines to piggyback on backlog and avoid entry cost bloat. Later on, as the community gnaws through the options to settle on popular combinations, box those the same way.Maybe chuck a bunch of stuff into cards to directly treat it like an LCG.
>>96655389>>96655493Bring back dungeon crawling procedures, make every monster statblock use the same rules as character creation (like in 3.5e), add rape implications to certain monster descriptions in order to keep the critical role/stranger things audience out, make magic non-gamist (vancian casting is not gamist, but x/day is), add rules for locational injuries, and make the game similar to Arduin but more low-fantasy. Also, remove all natural language and homogenization of abilities, bring back percentile rolls in events and monster generation, and make most monster stats realistic rather than level-scaled.
>>96655075>if I owned hasbro I would stop doing things that make money!!!Okay.
We had a thread earlier discussing how Delta Green would do in the universe of WoD and it made me curious; how would the Ordo Veritatis do if they were the ones transported and tasked with eliminating all Vampires? Assuming that they have all their government contacts and resources without needing to fight every other threat in the WoD, could they actually wipe out every vampire?
>>96653436>what do I need to knowIt's gay but in a fun way, It's the thin edge of the 'self-expression' wave of roleplay (the freakshit and superheros, 'narrative' type of rpg play), but in a good way. Watching people attempt personal horror is revealing and telling in an interesting way. >Should I play it if I want to run itIt would be helpful but it is not required, If you're coming from modern DND you shouldn't really have any issues with it. If you actually are an OSR or CoC enjoyer, it's perhaps a bit better to play first because it is it's own style. >Earlier Edition?The editions are confusing, honestly I think that 2nd edition rev is the best but if I was going to do this as a new guy I would use the quick start. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/55733/vampire-the-masquerade-revised-quickstartIt's free, you can find it other places. It has everything needed to actually run the game, don't be afraid to do your own thing/setting. Maybe all of vampires in your world is a single family set on a heritage estate in the middle of manhattan who go by the name of Addams. Maybe everyone is wearing sick ass latex catsuits while killing werewolves with hefty C cups and booty chicks, maybe there are hundreds of clans who actually do control everything except for a handful of rebels who are also vampires, Maybe there's a conspiracy of mages running all of reality and vampires are just the cockroaches under the floorboards of reality (think more King and less later vampire lore). Find something fun, and find the horror in it. >Non gayIt's all gay, go on tell me about how you want to shove your hard wood stake into others but never be stabbed.
>>96653436The World of Darkness General is that way >>96653765, newfren. >I love vampires (in a non gay way, if such a thing is possible)It's not possible. If you love vampire, you're gay, just admit and accept it.
>>96653892NTA, but the Luthor Harkon(the vamp he posted) is the least gay thing to ever not-gay, and that's a FACT.
>>96540720>But I doubt it. As soon as the clans realize they're fighting for their lives, they'll unite against a common threat and rip it apart.We’re going to pretend elders haven’t just fucked off and slept through serious purges in the past?
