I wanna go back and call out on his bullshit, but aside from that 1(one) intercessor he's been chill, have good prices, gives out free minis normally and the store is the only Warhammer store in a 200 mile radius
What should I do?Should I just swallow it and forget about the intercessor that made me seethe?

This has got to be one of the worst situations that I have ever seen in d&d, but I'm interested if /tg/ has seen some worse shit

> Usual D&D Group decides to do Advance 2e and plays Ravenloft with the module "The Created"
> Get to the part where characters transform into puppets and we start looting the place
> Druid who knows siege weaponry finds a toy catapult and marbles which could be used as "self-defense"
> Go up the stairs with another member and see a cat looking at us
>eventually lure it down the stairs were it takes 2 damage from the marble catapult and starts frantically running around
> Proceed to start going upstairs until the dwarf warrior uses the catapult to shoot more marbles at the cat
> Cat gets super pissed and starts ripping apart the dwarf puppet
> Ally puppet lands on cat from above and while riding it, pulls its ears extra hard
> Druid seeing the situation fires another volley of marbles at the cat, and due to damage KILLS THE CAT
> Druid and Dwarf then start using carpenter tools to start skinning the cat
> Druid is wearing the collar like a sash, using the cat claws as weapons, and putting blood on his face
> Dwarf starts full on skinning the cat and using its pelt as a "flowing cape"
>Once out of the toy shop the kids who have no parents due to story, come in and see what happens

The version is a lot closer to the original, and actually sort of makes sense, compared to now. Chaotic Good has absolutely no affiliation with Chaotic Evil. But most people are too unpredictable and inconsistent to have a consistent alignment that’s purely in one of nine quadrants.

I've played about a dozen games of OPR across it's 40k, fantasy, and skirmish variants. It's more or less 40k with all the bloat stripped out and an alternating activation style of action economy. As a result it's definitely a better game than 40K or AoS, but honestly its skirmish variants were worse than Kill Team or Warcry and compared to the wider swath of miniature games, I don't think it's particularly good - 40k's rules have more problems than just IGOUGO, and OPR doesn't really address much of the underlying mechanical issues present in the system it's clearly based on.
It's a good stepping-stone for 40kfags looking to branch out, but otherwise it's not really noteworthy. There are dozens of better wargames and skirmish games out there.

Are Wyvern/Griffin/Eagle Knights strategically sound?
They seem very useful as scouts but as a fighting force they either need to get near the enemy to attack with long spears or make it do with bows or crossbows, and given the likely high cost to maintain such flying mounts, they can't be massed like foot archers.
Development of guns could help them but it would also make it easier to counter them.

What are your guys thoughts on the idea that humans just like fucking monsters?

Like I personally really like the idea that humans are well known for just willing to get down and dirty with pretty much anything. No matter what they are.

What's that you got Fur and claws? Don't care. You're a giant lizard that's twice the size of A house well, either you're drinking the shrinking potion, or I'm drinking the growing potion. Either way, we can make this work. you're a ball of writhing tentacles and mouths it looks nothing like a human or even anything of this world i'm willing to make it work.

It's one of the things I tend to add into my games if it ever comes up. Who's, if ever somebody ends up fucking a monster. You can almost guarantee they're going to be human.

correct?
if so, what are some effects that can enlarge a dragon for hours at a time? Say, at least 8 continuous hours a day?
If necessary, assume caster level 11 for spells and psionic powers.

Just a word of warning about SBG: It's 3E, so it might need some monitoring for 3.5, but from what I've been looking at (my current group took over the Twilight Tomb dungeon/demiplane after some play and diplomacy and are slowly restoring it) it's mostly 3/3.5-agnostic.

Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial:http://mengtzu.github.io/exalted/sakuya.html
It’ll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

The way they handled crafting is just moronic. If you want to limit what artefacts they are able to craft cap their dot rating by their Essence and add conditions where they may raise that cap or lower experience costs.

For what? Most of the Goreshade stuff is across the books, all the way from Mk1 to the Hengehold Scrolls twitter. The first half should still be on the PP website, the second half, I think, exists around, but at the moment I'm not sure where to find it easily.

The post-Claiming/Rivening stuff is in the 5e RPG books and in the app lore bits.

>>94160914
I'm not sure what you mean with this statement. Which ones what? If it's about Goreshade/Iosans, then yea, it's scattered across more than a dozen books.

One of the problems with the Iron Kingdoms lore is that PP has spread it across a shitload of books, which makes it incredibly difficult to get into the setting.

Yeah, that's one thing that bugs me. Having to read every no quarter to catch someone these things can be a bit annoying, and the love's probably mt favorite part of the game. I remember the early stuff, but I wanted something more in-depth on Goreshade after his restoration

That's really not what happens with the 40k lore and BL novels. Sometimes, writers can slip in some bullshit, and there are inconsistencies because this franchise exists for decades. But GW absolutely does checks what happens in the lore and they have clear guidelines for writers. That's what the writers themselves say.

So I don't really get spending entire threads talking about this and that and then pretending that 100% of all the lore is absolute garbage and shit and not worth your time. Either be consistent or bullshit everything like this one >>94166944

(didnt learn bout that game type till post session somehow) and ontop of that we have some comedy podcast moments that i personally think fit the grimdark atmosphere (our translator being lazy and claiming the local rice farmer was cursing us instead of actually rolling to see how well he could translate it) and in general its a decent enough way to spend a hour or so. Any tips or criticism or anything before episode 2? Anything your doing yourselves you want to plug or get advice and criticism on?
