>>98608958Added naadhu and some vypers.
>>98634383Ive been meaning to add that vyper with character platform too for my saim hann but I want to use that harlequin vehicle instead of dark eldar one. Looks good tho
>>98634801Yeah I have one laying around spare now, it's too big for Naadhu I think.
>>98634895ooh its that much bigger huh, didn't know about that. Thanks, I need to rethink this then
>>98634801Cheers I used the new limited autarch as a base but ended up swapping to a bare head and simpler power weapon.
Do you agree?
GW borrowed a lot for all iterations of Warhammer, so this is hardly unprecedented.
>>98597179is that so? I could have sworn part of the reason the gitz consistently shill they're SK merch is to make back most of they funds making the episodes.
>>98628468it isn't
>>98597313Tourist cunts like you are so easily exposed>Haven't been making 40k since 2008Except the last Black Templar animation they made in 2024 and the many ones before thatThey used the popularity of the Black Templars vs Furries as the first promotion of SpacekingDon't even bother responding I'm done with retards like you
>>98635497sorry anon meant the other retard not you

>>98556809What is the best system and setting for splatterpunk? Esoterrorists? Kult? oWoD? Something else entirely?
>>98632187Fear Itself.
>>98628521It's something I've been homebrewing, but it's literally just Cyberpunk readjusted to play with Call of Cthulhu scenarios because I can't be bothered talking my friends into playing in yet another system. I'm working on it still. Trying to write some oneshots to set the mood. I have this hate for scenarios where GM has to run scenario like a film instead of just a quick and easy setup with characters, locations and shit that kicks off the story. What I'm writing is a scenario about a blank vinyl record that may or may not summon demons, cosmic horrors or just a nasty cyber virus depending on your playstyle. My idea is to have cyber freaks tempted to go one step further, contacting the supernatural to gain an edge.
>>98628521i used a barely-modified version of the frozen forest passage as a cult's mantra in a game once, it's good shit
Is it any good? Are they just adapting random pulp stories or does it do the original justice?
Writing General: 'dragons' editionWelcome to /wg/, the thread for all /tg/ related writing. Whether you're plotting your campaign, trying to come up with a character backstory, or just trying to write some setting fluff, this is the place to post it. You don't even have a campaign, just an idea you want to develop? You're welcome here. While the rest of /tg/ is arguing over monstergirl mating and which way rivers are supposed to flow, we're here to help you turn your thoughts into an actual finished product.As the successor to the Storythreads, we're also open to /tg/ related fanfiction (D&D, Warhammer, Battletech, whatever). In fact, if you've written any vaguely /tg/-related short stories, you can try them out here. We also have flash-fiction challenges from time to time.There's a discord for writers herehttps://discord.gg/6AwKHGFThe previous thread can still be found in the archive here>>97699640And finally an archive of /tg/ fiction can be found here:http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (dead link, but may be resurrected one day)https://2d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (page missing, wiki still up)Comment too long.

>>98628494Now use it in a sentence ;)
>>98633233>>98633410I appreciate the input. I know jack shit of japanese so I have just been using google translate and vibes. While I am willing to let accuracy slide for the sake of coolness etc, I also don't want the words I use for shit in the setting to mean something retarded or silly because I didn't know better. I'll take this into consideration but as it is almost 3 am here I will have to leave that proper consideration for after I have gotten some shuteye.
>>98552182Unicorn bait. How else do you think dragons live so long?
>>98633233The more I mulled over the term Shinryushi in my head I think it works ultimately better than Shenshiryu as a name. It is more distinct from just the dragon names and the various translations it leads to have the proper connotations.The more I look into Japanese terms and words the more maddening this shit gets. I have to fix the term Mizonoseiki because if it does not mean what I think it means then it sounds stupid. Apparently at least according to fucking google, Shinju for example, can translate to divine tree as well, but also means fucking double suicide. What stupid fucking language.I still want the actual rough translation of it to refer to the place where it is on the map, "The Divine Tree of the Waters" is a fitting name for it because it is set in a place where many bodies of water and rivers, and canals meet in the City. In general the spires of the City are called "divine trees" in both archaic tongues, as well as by people who worship them.
>>98635415After some fuckign about, I might have found a suitable arrangement of moonrunes for the fucking name I want:水合流の神樹 (Mizu Gōryū no Shinju), which should, at least to what I was able to google and figure out, translate to "The Divine Tree of the Confluence of Waters."I ought to have taken japanese courses while I was in high school.
Previous Thread: >>98488734GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How to Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder program, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.The one-volume GURPS Basic Set Fourth Edition Revised is out and is currently being shipped to buyers. More recently, "Templates Toolkits 5: Quick and Pointless" was made available for purchase on Warehouse 23.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>>98634454Detect (Murderers), although Intuition is more realistic
>>98634454Does he ALWAYS know RIGHT AWAY, or is he just usually right fairly early?Empathy, Intuition, good IQ and skill levels, and GURPS over-optimistic handling of Detect Lies will get you good enough, I think.

>>98565989So how am I ever supposed to find old hammer dwarves?
>>98574797what do they taste like?
>>98625045FDM's are great for printing:-Flat bases of all sizes-Big chonky pieces of terrain-Flat pieces or plates for tanks with not much superficial detail-Base trays with holes for magnets-Gizmos, tokens, wound-makrer dice, battle-shock markers and other small thingiesI don't own a FDM but I've bought all of these from a local seller who makes them.
>>98624707you absolutely can>>98623824here's some things I find wrong with your plate(s). Your capes are horizontal. Your swords are horizontal. Your horse legs(?) are horizontal. Your flat plates are horizontal. Always print things vertical. If something is long, like an antenna, or flat, like a cape, print it vertical.Add extra supports at the points where the islands appear. And always check your sliced file through UVTOOLS. Check for errors and fix all of them.>>98623810Have you thought that you might be underexposing the resin? My layers are at 2.75s per layer. 1.4s seems very low. Then again I run thicker layers (50um).
>>98576541As far as scans go, I'd say that one looks great. It is sharper than most scans I got. I've printed sloppier too. You will be fine. I would print it directly.

>>98632349Spray primed black (as I batch prime everything). Drybrushed Vallejo Cream White. Some manual true white layered on top. The brown is Vallejo Flat earth. Painted in strips then a few dots to make the edges uneven. Watered down GW flesh wash on the brown that's dabbed to avoid pooling. Pretty quick'n'lazy. This whole army is me reducing a lot of processes and detail to get a tabletop ready force pumped out. Once I have a full army of Swiss, I'll slow down and take my time on the next army. *BTW this game was Swiss v Burgundians. By the end my opp and I were both bloodied pretty bad, each a single casualty away from a rout and thus loss. I won off the last two melees. Me halberd guys were surrounded on all sides by mounted knights but managed to hold the line, then my pikemen, assisted by my own knights managed to wound his foot knights, giving me the single point I needed to win. Pic of the pikes taking on the foot knights
>>98634229With my pikes as the strongest part of my army I had to slog them forward into the opp's cannon and mixed infantry containing archers. I had no ranged weapons to hit back with in the center, and the opp cannon dice rolls were brutal. I took a lot of casualties crossing the open ground, but once I closed the gap my elite pike guys brutalized his cannon crews and low quality infantry in melee. POV pic from the opp's side as I approached.
>>98632649I've been begging for a Napoleonic Naval skirmish rules with landing party raids and single ship to ship boarding actions for ages in this general >>98633221They have Blood and Bayonets specifically, which is Napoleonic wars, but the Blood & _____ line of rules are quite shite. It would be better to take the ship movement rules and port them to a whole nother ruleset
>>98634229>Vallejo Cream WhiteFuck. >>98632674 called it!
>>98634283Ffuuark ships are kino.. Taking Muskets& Tomahawks rules combined with B&P ship rules, or even Nevermind the Boathooks, would be an awesome game
Why are modern wargames and boardgames so soulless compared to classics from the 70s and 80s?
>>98632781>shit dude you haven't fed your bat in 2 days looks like it eats your whole army
>>98631124Tables and charts are so KINO but modern wargamers seethe and shit themselves when they have to open a rulebook for reference. Everything nowadays is marketed as "RULES LITE" "FAST!" "STREAMLINED AND SIMPLE!"
>>98632541Yeah, more precisely Dragon Pass, the 1980+ edition of WBRM.>>98632961well, it's a big red bat.
>>98634531I'm honestly glad we've moved beyond the ancient 70s divination method of "peruse a giant table of combat factor ratios to see if you hit stuff" and have invented math. "Add numbers to your dice roll to reach target number" is so much more satisfying as a sapient life form.
>>98635115RQ/Chaosium in general has come a long way. They've fixed gaming by introducing official extreme, hard, and normal success. Now I can just roll for Crimson Bat's CON and if he fails, shit. Time to feast.

Why is Pathfinder so much edgier and grimdark compared to D&D?
>>98618958>did we mention that Lovecraft's Outer Gods might be the ultimate cosmic authority in the setting?Only Yog Sothoth, what with him being the only native survivor of the previous reality alongside Pharasma. Of course, being a malevolent demiplane of time allows for certain shenanigans. To be honest, the lore for the Outer Gods feels kind of shit and tacked on, often poorly. I get one of the devs is a big fan of Lovecraft, but it needs to be properly dealt with.>>98628551Gorum, the god of war, realized too many of his worshippers were literally just bloodthirsty psychopaths, has an existential crisis, decides to maybe mention to the elven goddess of whores and vengeance that he's not exactly a true god but the collective bloodthirst of all humanoids in the form of a god. Achaekek, the mantis god of divinity and assassins, gets wind of this and surprise-attacks Gorum while he's doing his daily feud in his realm, Gorum dies, sprays godblood and shards of his armor all over the place while a strange smoke flies off to somewhere, causing big problems for the setting.Turns out he might not have been a traditional blood-and-body god after all considering his armor was basically empty besides some strange smoke and a bit of godblood.Now theres a world war on the horizon and demigods popping up left and right causing all kinds of issues.Also, a lot of retards here like to troll about this event because they are pathologically unable to tell the truth.
>>98614316To clarify something, Worldwound might've been closed, but Cheliax reversed their fortunes by becoming the 10th Layer of Hell, the Thrune ascending as an Archdevil and Worldwound 2 Opening up.
>>98626763The problem is we shouldn't have to pick out the woke shit. Sorry if I ask for a pizza and they make a okay pizza but add some gay vegan toppings or put "86 47" on it. I shouldn't have to remove the tofu pepperoni or move it around to remove the message. This is why these freak keep winning. Too many on our side just accept it, the freaks don't when they don't like something. They basically call out the company and start boycotts. We seen when we can be serious we can force them to change hard. We don't need to be quiet about it anymore. Just tell the companies, Daddy Blackrock cut you off, so if you want us back spending a dime on your shit. We want you to bend the knee and purge the woke from your company and IP. Retcon or, de-canon it, I don't care but their shit needs to be removed with a public promise to "Do Better." If they can do it for them, they can do it for us.
>>98614922magical Kung Fu monks and genies
>>98611307When PF1 was made it was during peak edgy grimdark. However, the group running the company is now all about freaks and fags. So everything is wrap in pride shit and pushing as much leftist politics as they think they can stuff in. Plus pf2 kind was a dumper fire since they no longer catering to the 3.5 crowd with 2e. Which is funny if they weren't as woke as WOTC they could repeat what happen the first time. However they also shat the bed right next to D&D and had to remake 2e to 2.2e.
Lads!I'll make this simple. We be makin' spaceships.You have MS Paint. I have Blender.You be seein' that screenshot of a cube. YOU will draw a part of a spaceship onto it. I will model it and screenshot it.Repeat until we have cool spaceship.(random addendum in following posts Less go!)
>>98634751Not bad anon!If I'm right these are the original Star Wars concept sketches George made before he passed them off to a concept artist.You did pretty good on my silly doodles I presented.Maybe the rectangular side shapes could be solar panels. I wasn't envisioning a warship.I gotta finish some stuff and get some sleep after. I feel inspired to try Blender after seeing what you pumped out.

Thoughts on this map?
>>98581518>all of the continents are round on top and pointy on the bottom>except for the one in the bottom right corner, which is round on the bottom and pointy on the toplet me guess, that one's some kind of "upside down" place, full of crazy characters and weird wildlife.
>>98582678China and most of South America are developed despite having been conquered in the past, what's Africa's excuse?
>>98629784China wasn’t fully colonized, and the cunts at South America had gotten enough integrity to fight for their own independence.
>>98629158They probably call it the 'under-down' lands or some knockoff shit.

>>98628243>>98628586>>98628623Leghorn is versatile--you can go full bumbling blowhard or, leaning into the Coyote v Acme angle, a menacing wealthy type. But, most importantly, all the "I say"s, "Boy, listen to me when I'm talking to you"s, and general repetition gives a GM a lot of time to think about where they're going.

>>98625278No matter what accent I do, it eventually devolves into whatever the hell Beni from "The Mummy"
>>98625278I like doing actors. 'Imagine this person was played by (X)' is useful for quickly conveying a character. Arnold, Walken, Herzog and Buscemi are distinctive go-to ones.
Has anyone actually used Mini Six to run a game? I've seen people talk about it in other threads and it has me curious about the strengths and weakness of the system. I love the idea of having a good generic system that I can use for many different settings. My playgroup is a bit picky about learning new systems, especially non-d20 systems, so personal experience might help in selling the system. For those with experience with the system what kind of game did you run/play and how long did it last? What did you think of character building/Advancement? Did you like it? Feel free to talk about any OpenD6 stuff even though I'm specifically asking about Mini Six.
>>98632361What's it like working for Gallant Knight? Is the coffee good?
>>98632596Yeah, I work at pirating their stuff, but you don't know I wrote about it because you don't read shit, (You) idiot.I probably had made them lose more money than your schizo hatred for them. I'm sorry if Gallant Knight Games raped your mom and your childhood, but If you behave like this in real, I can't imagine you being in a table, with real people, playing tabletop, and you spouting rigid and unwise opinions just like that, forcing it to them as if it's the absolute truth; my diagnostic is: NOGAMES, Special Needs Contrarian Type; tables and humans are allergic to you. But please don't stop posting here, your last bastion, lowcows are, ironically, needed for group cohesion.
