>>97795609Are you saying I'm stupid because you can just do that. I didn't even imply that
>>97796714I'm saying you are stupid and illiterate. The last bit isn't something you said or implied but I don't want anyone to think I'm defending 5e.
>>97796768Illiterate, why? I didn't say anything even remotely controversial
>>97787858>but they're not small in number!Oh yeah, I guess when I read that part my mind went immediately to the japanese and koreans only.
>>97797405Not even China? Surprising.
With the current controversy in 40K, post sub-factions you hate and think shouldn’t exist I’ll start.
>>97751599Idk ask /40kg/
>>97751599I hate Farsight because, like Tau in general, they don't do ANYTHING with it.
>>97751599>crying about any subfactions that aren't marinesSilence, marinepiggy
>>97751753>Space marine chapters.Chapters should exist, but they should not have dedicated codexes. All any chapter is should be a paintjob, one special rule and one unique unit, and that's it. And they should all be in the same codex.
>>97799558>and one unique unitStill more service than anyone else gets lel
I like this modelThis looks cool
>>97774659nooooo, the faction known for having what're basically mashups of older irl military vehicles and being expies of irl militaries have what're basically slight mashups of older irl military vehicles and as a result being an expy of an irl military, what a fucking shock.>>97782417....are you seriously just now finding out about this fact in regards to the Guard.I swear to god, this thread is filled with dumbfuck tourists that don't seem to have ever interacted with the Guard before I swear to fuck.
>>97777592thicc
>>97777901this dude has some great shit
>>97795344>Ahhhhhhhhh! People's subjective opinion differs to mine, how can this be happening?!?!!!!? SHILLS! Shills, everyone's a shill but me, that's it, that's how it is, yeah, shills...Please, for the sake of humanity, hurl yourself into a woodchipper asap.
>>97795589>Sighs contentedly in 1:1 STLs of proper BlocktinelsAnyone still refusing to take the 3Dprintpill is objectively a fucking idiot.>Ugh ugh ubuh but MUH FUMESStop being a pussy, wear a mask, or just get someone else to print them you absolute fucking cabbage.
Does anyone actually play this fucking game?
>>97798065Advertising.
>>97797868Occasionally, but not with the expensive figures that go with it. I use much cheaper 1/72 scale or proxy figures from other games.
>>97798014Bolt Action but with sci-fi units grafted onto it
>>97799791Kinda sounds like you really don’t want people to like this game.
>>97797868No, it has the same issues as tranny crusade - run by wokies and speed running to GW levels of corporate slop.
Pendragon Thread!What's the deal with 6E?

Who are the major antagonists of your setting/campaign? I’m talking BBEG types, to put it simply, and their immediate subordinates. What goes into a villain that is narratively compelling?
>>97790882Lame roleplay aside, he does have a point. Nobody is interested in the GM’s opinions, and using the game to get on a soapbox and shout your opinions is not something the players are going to appreciate, or tolerate for very long.
>>97768472>Joker is a shit villain tho. He's also a bad example because he's not funny.What are some GOOD examples then?
>>97790023The local lord has a disdain for BBEGs, they insist upon themselves.
>>97791123you got filtered, that's okay anon, the world doesn't revolve around you
>>97796151>they insist upon themselvesWhat does that even mean?
Gil-Galad was an elfen-king.
>>97796310Senpai, he asked you about the game, he's actually factually on-topic both literally and literary. Why do you feel so forced to participate in the thread discussion, is this not the thread you defended?
>>97797441You won't tell us how he was directly involved with playing the game, because you can't, since you don't play games and just want to talk about literature.
>>97796310Where was anyone talking about his use in a game?Some retard pointed a page number and said "there he is" but didn't say anything about gameplay involving him.
>>97797446Delete the posts you don't like with your mod powers.
>>97798154I'm not even that person, dumbass. And if you played games, you'd already know how he's involved.

>>97791915Magnus got to hang out with the Emperor in the Warp and constantly talked with him telepathically. Of all the Primarchs, Magnus probably spoke with the Emperor the most, albeit not in person (that would be Horus).>>97791932Angron made them do it as part of a deal, he'd actually make an effort to lead his legion and they'd all take the Nails.

>>97800101I think it’s a matter of the game attracting that kind of player
>>97799741yeah copper/bronze is super neat historically. Also some did use iron currency but it's really not a good form of currency as it rusts easily and isn't worth much due to natural abundance. Bronze is also harder (when work hardened) then wrought iron so early bronze armor/weapons would be better than early iron equivalents the big game change was how easily it could be mass produced and eventually the development of steels. One of my favorite tropes is the forge god with a lame foot or something this was due to arsenic bronze (cooper/arsenic bronze alloy) would slowly cause those working with it to become lame due to arsenic poisoning.
>>97798686>>97798727>>97799466Thanks for the input!
>>97799576also hope your caster isnt a psychic because they have shit for spell choices
>>97799741Iron is straight up like the most common element on the planet or something. It's just very rarely found in a pure state and getting in their or working it into more valuable alloys is/was a huge pain in the ass
How fleshed out are the gods and religious customs (including evil ones) in your setting?
>>97678892>>97679835>>97783223These are all the same religion thoughbeit
>>97681186This but unironically
>>97678552Not very because I'm leery of just making a pantheon for no reason. I only really want to flesh out deities players are likely to encounter.
Traditional games?
>>97796469Okay, so what gods and cults have you made them?
What are the gods and goddesses like in your settings, and what advice do you have for designing deities for one's own original settings? And what about other settings who you feel do a great job with their gods? I want to make my first original pantheon instead of just sticking with picrel or copying an existing one like the Olympians, and I have no clue where to begin.
>>97777520I could do that, lol.The Dreamer represents creation and the potential of life, the death primordial represents endings, and the last one represents non-existence essentially. Each primordial is aware mortals and some gods pray to them, but they're too eldritch and unknowable to really care.I didn't even know Marvel had cosmology really. I thought it was all just loosely connected stories to justify Spiderman and Thor and Hulk and all them living in the same world together.
>>97785592>I didn't even know Marvel had cosmology really. I thought it was all just loosely connected stories to justify Spiderman and Thor and Hulk and all them living in the same world together.At first, yeah, lol, but then they started getting more epic and meta. Take a look at the wiki, it might give you some ideas!Just how many universes exist currently, and how have things evolved over time, BTW?
>>97766856Well, IIRC in Discworld "small gods" exist, 'then' grow into true deities once they find a niche. Or something like that, been a while.
>>97789384Sure, I'll look into it.The Dreamer's created hundreds of different universes, all tweaking their designs and laws of physics to slow the other two down. There's universe with higher gravity, one where all life is made of music (inspired by the novel Starmaker by Olaf Stapledon!), one where time flows backward, etc. The other primordials always get bogged down for a while, but eventually they adapt and continue chasing the Dreamer. My main setting is one of the earliest settings, hence why it's so 'normal' compared to what came after.
>>97796967Where does our universe sit on the scale?
rules medium-light gamesSomething I have noticed with my preferences is that I have liked a very specific complexity level of games. Super lights that have like 3 ability skills and maybe an inventory like a Risus dont do it for me, but neither do normal medium complexity games like 5e dnd. Something complex enough were you have some tactical options and a little crunch, but not so complex that a character takes more than two or three minutes to make up. Its a very specific niche between light and medium that has really pulled me in games likeBarbarians of LemuriaMini SixScarlet Heros andWarhammer The Old World RPGJust wondering if anyone else has had similar tastes. Another common feature between them I noticed was player made careers instead of either a class based or skill based system. Also, anyone have any games they would like to recommend in this broad genre?
>>97781437Another nice thing about BoL's general damage system is that light medium and heavy weapons all have the same potential damage, but the likelyhood of high damage scales with heavyness. Which is really satisfying. A dagger to the eye can do much the same as a greatsword to the body, so a "Critical" on a dagger can effectively do as much damage as a critical on a greatsword. Its just that on average, the greatsword will do more damage.
>>97779383I like careers, but I have to say I also like a veriety of "generic" skills too. Not like 20+ like Traveller or Call of Cthulu or something, but like10-20 that run a nice gambit of different activities. It gives you a nice "reference point" of the kind of activities you can do. THat's one reason I Mentioned The old World RPG, It consolidated most of what you can do into 16 skills, and you are likely to have a decent fraction of them you are good or mediocre at without feeling like you are just good at everything.They give a nice starting off point when you are not sure what you are going to do while the generic "Gladiator" career can feel a bit broad outside of the immediate assumption of melee proficiency.
>>97763372How does this apply to your setting?
>>97793983What? it doesnt, its just the means to interact with the setting. I have been going through systems recently while playing in the Warhammer fantasy setting.Speaking of, Fuck it, I think I might try to smash Barbarians of Lemuria and The old world together. Use Old world's Ability and stats lay out, but Barbarian's 2d6 based dice resolution. There shouldn't be any conflict that way. It will be exciting to see if it does what I want.
>>97793915I like careers too, not my favourite, but an easy way of not having huge skill lists. I like X without Numbers system, which is 2d6+skill+attribute modifier against dc X. It don't give you too much room to grow though, as each +1 is a pretty big boonI never liked roll under d100, but it's grown on me a lot. Roll under attribute I'm not a fan of, or even worse, skills are tied to class
Where do I even put this on the alignmen chart?There's collectivist angle allowing "all people" to pursue their dreams, which is pretty Lawful.But also dependence on slave labor (drugged out of their mind to stay content and compliant), which seems pretty Evil.Or is ensuring the working class doesn't suffer kind enough to shift towards Neutral?Assuming high fantasy, not mudcore where the peasants make over 90% of the population.

“The strength of a wizard isn’t in how much magic they can muster, but how effective their magic is in effect”What’s more powerful? The wizard who can blow up planets or the wizard who can control one (1) mind without any defence against it?
>>97764591What is this image from
>>97764591I mean if they faced off against each other, the mind control one would win.
>>97796925Unless planet blow up wizard is a shonen protagonist. Then he will overcome the mind control through the power of nakama and blow up mind control wizard.
>>97764591Magic, like power, (or power, like magic) is quite relative. There’s a good reason why magic and superpowers go hand in hand. Same with knowledge. “I know something you don’t know~” often leads to “I can do something you can’t do~”.
Thing is though, we don't have a definite effective range for mind control, or even know if mind control wizard is aware of planet explosion wizard.They might be on opposite sides of the planet, or a mile apart but unaware of each-other.
