It’s literally the same weapon with a slightly different blade shape
>>98502740Because they all exist, which means that they all exist. Next question.
>>98503004>pretending that D&D is the only system with this issue
>>98502740Some of them are combinations of different weapons so you can have advantages of them all (at a disadvantageous of weight and possible some motions?), like combining spears, bills, axes and hammers into one.
>>98514501> I guess every manchild goes through this phase.I was 15 when I did the same
>>98502740There's at least three different length classes in that pic, from very short bardiche to pike. Poleax is a staff weapon with a head, the bardiche is war ax that speaks Russian. That pike could be 21', depending on unit and time period.
>Vancian MAGIC sucks!>Checks inside the alternative>Less spells, less diversity of magic and "you have to do it yourself" scamsWhy this keeps happening? I'm not defending DnD but nobody puts effort on their awesume magic system they claim is better.
>>98516888I also hate the idea of anything refreshing "daily" except for certain divine/innate/item abilities that recharge based on the time of day, but my interpretation of the rules is that you can prepare spells whenever you want (although it takes hours), but once you prepare them, they are prepared until used, and you could theoretically prepare spells twice in the same day and still have almost 8 hours to use the second set of spells in. Discussions online have varying interpretations, but I greatly prefer the interpretation where wizards are essentially a quiver that is loaded with arrows (spells) which take a while to change and are not fungible with each other, instead of the RAW and 5e interpretation that you get a number of spell charges per level each Adventuring Day™ which can be used on any spell you decided to "memorize" which is of that level, as well as any spell below that level, chosen at the time of casting rather than the time of preparation. AD&D's system of needing to prepare spells to use them in certain ways (such as inverting spells) certainly implies the former, while some of 3.5e and most of 5e implies the latter. Also, a mana point system could be made semi-vancian if you declared that each spell is a psychic entity which inhabits your mind (and you have a finite storage of them), and whenever you cast the spell, you spend mana to invoke it but do not expend it unless you fumble the spell, and this would remove the need for leveled spell slots but keep the need for spell slots in general, meaning that you could have spells which do not linearly scale with their level, or which stay useful at higher levels without needing to be upcast, since you can cast them more times.
>>98512865Anon might be retarded but they have a better grasp on what an oxymoron is than you
>>98505786>MP systems involve tracking an additional ever changing numberSolved literally decades ago. Make mana tracker at the edge of the character sheet and then either slide a paperclip or mark your current value. Infinitely easier than keeping track of how many spell slots of different levels you have, and which spells you have prepared in them.
>>98518906What element non-obvious effects (healing, scrying, teleportation, anything that doesn't directly involve an element) falls under, if it's possible at all.
>>98492272Because magic is hardly understood, even by fantasy nerds that in theory have an affinity with such concepts (as opposed to the vast majority of normies who shun it). Most people who write about ways to do magic in pnp rpgs think of magic as a way to manipulate reality, pull a string here, push a pressure point there, and puff! You get an effect, often implying you're the cause. That's out of this world, pushes a sterile power fantasy that hardly interacts with the elements of your world in an organic way and when it partially does it's because you hard-coded a set of effects in a system that can only work my way or the highway, like vancian magic. I offer no solution because I'm writing this while I poo and my right leg is already half asleep, but if you start considering yourself as equal as other creatures, not special, not outside the system, but inside a much more complex reality of which you are just one part, like everyone else, then conceptualizing magic should become easier.
When are the Eldar going to get a redesign so they stop looking so fucking goofy?
>>98521822Reasonably sure this artwork is for epic 40k, first or second edition of it anyway.
>>98522014iirc it was never actually used
>>98522014The weapons are all RT era design and for some reason the memory is tied to the 3rd ed one actually called Epic 40K but its not a clear enough one. Which makes it even more amusing as the OP, because the eldar indeed have had several redesigns since then.The art I'm remembering is probably me mixing together different box art images, its a while ago.
Give me more good looking female Eldar models
>>98522175>good looking models >posts nubanshees
How far do you usually go in depicting effects of drugs and addictions?Just clinical rundown of stat bonuses and penalties they inflict or down to vivid description of trips and shivers?And where do you draw inspiration if you got no first hand experience yourself? Trainspotting mixed with Fear and Loathing?
>>98516035Retard
>>98516035this but unironically
>>98466205Because vore is too abstract and stupid to possibly take seriously. It's on the level of floor tiles or foreverially delitized to me.
>>98466007I'm a recovering alcoholic, so I am NOT looking to reenact or share that kind of experience with anyone else.
>>98466007how would you even depict drug use or mental illness in a serious and concrete way through roleplay? Most people will have never experienced these things outside of their really awful depictions in movies, TV, and video games.

Good has 6 factions, evil has 4. Bring back Dark Elves. Or Chorfs. Chaos has an AoS line and a TOW line, so it’s possible.
>>98524877Most of the Warhammer YouTubers seem kinda shitty people, especially that one fat guy. The Aussie guys sound like they've a better attitude towards the game, but that might be because of the funny accents. The jolly fat guy over at old world legends also sounds like he has the proper mindset. It's also fun to hear him try to steer the conversation with his co-host, who is much, much more critical about the ruleset etc.

How do the FVTT gms out there deal with how frustrating the program is? I've been using this thing for 5+ years and it's so goddamn annoying, the the dev team just loves rolling out updates that break everything for no good reason (I stopped installing them long ago). Meanwhile there are still annoying UI quirks like the fact that you can't drag multiple items in a menu at once. You've got to have at least two dozen mods installed to unfuck various features of the program. So many times in the past I've had to deal with awkward technical difficulties in session, and now I've figured most of them out, but the program still just feels hostile and shitty to use. One of my friends just had her campaign end because the GM hit the update button that the UI begs you to click on, which fucked everything up. Foundry devs would put a fucking speed bump on a freeway exit. Also I've tried R20 and it's significantly worse, but if there's another feature-rich VTT out there I might consider switching.
>>98509707This exact issue is what killed online play for me. I want to love it, but playoids are the worst.
>>98509707Inform your players they're being bitches then run a game set entirely in the internet in a 90s style hackerman setting.Every map is just green and black, enemies look like badly generated clusters of AI bullshit and they have to use a physical notepad to keep notes because anything in the journals is accessible by 'The Government' who can and will edit it to fuck with them.Never say which particular government, just The Government.
>>98509707I draw maps by hand in Foundry, I make no notes for the players and don't use any of the extra features in the software. I have a module for smoother drawing, and a module for a calendar. I have generic tokens that I copypaste my notes into their description in case I get confused by which is which.My players are happy, I am happy.
>>98508948Why are you wasting time on foundry when a plain featureless grid on roll20 (where to drawn on the spot) and the dice roller is more than enough? Even better, screensharing a grid on paint, google drive and using a diceroom.>inb4 muh macros!Lel, mathlet, try not playing with retards.>inb4 muh graphicsImaginlet, positioning is all that's needed for tactical combat, everything else is superfluous.

Cracked a Smash Palace a few weeks ago and a few friends and I played some Crack, Shuffle, Play. It was actually really fun and we wanted to do it again.They suggested a Guardian cube, instead of buying more MPG packs. I think I might try and build that.
>>98524353Don't forget your anti-guardian guardian cards. A signature feature of masterpacks.
>>98523635>>98523810>>98523460It was my experience at the FFG HQ was that Reversal tournaments were actually more popular than the traditional ranked tournaments. During the CotA period, FFG actually had to rein in the reversal events because they were running more reversal events at FFGC than the standard ranked events.Speaking from experience, Reversal is fun as hell. Definitely worth trying out if you haven't.
>>98524353Did you run into the issue that flattering showman was just way better than everyone else? My mates and I thought he was fucked after getting completely ruined by him so when eventually anyone that got him as their hero would just get killed from either side
>>98507670>One of the best promo cards sorcery has done recently, I think the flaming skull has been completely overshadowed by itYeah it is gorgeous, but I am trying not to be sentimental about it and let it collect dust as it isn't a staple card>>98509818>Very based. What kind of deck are you building? I'm currently working on a silence scam deck to see how that works out.Just a mono fire pathfinder, it's grug tier but I am somewhat new and my experience in mtg when I was younger was with red deck wins. I also want to build a site destruction based deck with imposter as the avatar, with the plan of mana ramping with pathfinder, using realm eater to destroy more sites and then switching to geomancer to fill the left over rubbles.Also I have the trade planned with a guy at my LGS to get the foil ring of Morrigan
The worst thing an RPG do to kill interest in it is get political. Take Eclipse Phase for example. It went overtly political and made the factions analogous to modern politics, and now people go into it instantly deciding what they like based on what their current politics are.Warhammer 40k on the other hand does this much better. The factions hold no relation to modern politics, there are conservative and liberal reasons to like every faction so anyone can like any faction.

Why are fantasy politics kino and makes me want to learn about the world and it's factions and who knows who and what's been done while real world politics is boring as sin?

What's /tg/'s consensus on Dragonbane?
>>98518497I stand by my statement
Why the hell arent unarmed attacks considered "subtle"? A suckerpunch/judo chop is the quintessential pacifist/good guy rogue sneak attack, also they have it where when in cramped locations non subtle weapons get a bane on the roll. How is knife fighting LESS restrictive than punches? I will be changing this in my games but it seems like a huge oversight
>>98514849Why not? You can ignore them to your heart's content. I kept the woflkin race and replaced ducks with lizardkin (makes more sense in my setting).
>>98514849My wife adores them, & its just following the five races trope
I've been running Dragonbane for about a year. I find the system mostly quite good, but it definitely feels more suited toward one shots and short adventures. The one action combat system with shuffled initiative feels good and interesting to play around with, but the heroic abilities in the core book are sometimes weirdly or poorly balanced and mostly dull. Aside from that, RNG progression with how skill advancement and starting stats work is a bit of an acquired taste. Secrets of the Dragon Emperor and the misty vale is a pretty good adventuring hub, though some adventures are far more inspired than others. I kinda like that the system has only a loose implied generic fantasy setting, makes everything very malleable.
