A perfectly balanced one, especially when you consider those Rogues were severely underleveled going into the campaign.

Hm. Two spam threads reposted from the archive in a row. Was the goal to kill the alternate wargames general? Or is this a more ambitious shot at the drawthread or something even higher on the bump order? I guess we'll know if you shit the catalogue up even more

Doesnt matter too much, they played together for all of 3 sessions then broke apart into more managable groups. Dont even know why its considered a "Thing" when they were together for all of 10 minutes.

I am running a campaign with 3 half orcs, a LN paladin, CN ranger, CG alchemist

Gandalf is a fighter/EK type build not a wizard. He has monkey grip and TWF at a minimum. Probably just put ranks in UMD.

The reason why Hobbits, out of all things, are the protagonists in both LOTR and the Hobbit is due Tolkien experience during WW1 taught him that tales of heroes and badasses who aren't afraid of anything, don't mean shit against artillery and machinegun fire. It's the reason why the Battle of Five Armies is just one paragraph, never delves into it, let alone romanticises it, and most people involve in it are a bunch of greedy assholes (the fucking orcs, out of all armies, are there for revenge, not greed), and Bilbo stays unconscious throughout all of it.

Probably also its why Aragorn is proclaimed king because it is seen he has magic touch of healing after the war and not from his heroic deeds.

That's what makes stories good.
Lots of fat and ugly people die or live through wars.
I want to hear about the beautiful and rich.
I don't want to spend 50 hours imagining a fat old person when reading.
Yuck.

>>97170718
Too bad jews convinced governments to stop educating people. Because if everyone is retarded then there are no erudite Christians who oppose them.

>>97169466
>Aragorn
>not as LG as it gets
Are you dense? He's the literal king. Sneaking around forests and wearing a hood doesn't make him any less lawful.
>>
>>97171045
And same goes for Sam, he sticks to his promise no matter what.
>>
>>97169466
Is this your party? From your games?
>>
>>97169466
Back in oldschool, you made an oversized party that was being controlled by maybe half as many players as it was big for spares in the likelihood your main might be incapacitated or killed over the course of an adventure.

How many times is this retarded reddit thread going to be made?

Dunedain should be represented by half elves as they're simply better people.

One of the hobbits was a Bard.
>>
>>97169466
>NG Aasimar Wizard
is an angel
>Rogue
they all have the racial class type class of hobbit, that is thief with some fighter but for the most part they have no class whatsoever.

they just do no have a cleric
>>
>>97169466
>>NG Aasimar Wizard
he is actually a figter/mage angel
>>
>>97169466
warriors; fighter, ranger, ranger, fighter/mage, fighter
npc tier nobodies; hobbits

the party is the 5 warriors the others are civilians that are escorted
>>
>>97169530
ITS MUH TRADITION
>>
>>97171797
His magic is divine, he uses turn undead on the Nazgul, heals the lord of the eagles, can hold his own in melee, and is the direct servant of a god. Gandalf is a light domain cleric.
>>
>>97171965
can fight physically with a balrog, casts spells like a wizard and has some divine powers that those are due to his angelic nature, not a class. Not a cleric.
>>
>>97169530
this. Alignment is one of the main reasons D&D is a game for children and leftists. Everyone is of the same "alignment" in LOTR, since there is no intrinsic force of good or evil in Middle Earth. Why list Boromir as LN, because he had a moment of weakness against the ring? That just made him weaker of will than Aragorn, not less "good".

Hobbits have gentry, not nobility.

>>97169466
It's a fantastic Fire Emblem army though.

>Mercenary with amazing starting stats, solid growth, and exclusive weapon.
>Mage Jagen.
>Archer with psychotic base stats that can also use swords.
>Second merc with good stats(pretty expendable long term, but solid at the start).
>Armor axe knight that has amazing support with the archer.
>Christmas cav duo(start off as civilians for some reason)
>Civilian with insane growths
>Civilian whose personal skill allows him to become invicible.

>can fight physically with a balrog

That just makes him a very high level cleric.

>casts spells like a wizard

Light domain clerics can do everything Gandalf does. Wizards can't turn undead or heal.

>has some divine powers that those are due to his angelic nature

All his power is from either his angelic nature or his ring, none is from studying. But his angelic powers come ultimately from god, which is why he gets more powerful when god sends him back as Gandalf the White. He doesn't take a study break.

>>97169466
Myth based group, which usually did not have a lot of magic guys or healing guys.
>>
>>97169466
Gandalf is basically the DM's pet character he stuck into the party and would not let die either.

Wrong, picrel is their translation in d&d rules
>>
>>97173698
this is beyond retardation, its clear when reading the books that the warriors are extremely skilled and not even as a joke under 12th level.
>>
>>97173698
gandalf killed a balrog in single combat, he is an epic level character
>>
>>97172643
he is not a cleric, all you describe are angelic powers. He knows, he does not need clerical faith as he is certain. Its a fighter/mage angel.
>>
>>97169696
and the greatest hero among them was the commoner
>>
>>97173698
boromir 3 wis. how did he manage to get to rivendell in the first place?

That's why the Peter Jackson movie adaptation makes me laugh, becauae this point flew completely over their heads because "holy shit fantasy wars are fucking cool and marketable!".

Yes.

Wow, it's...been a while since someone has been *this wrong* on /tg/. It's actually kind of impressive.

This may be the most genuinely ignorant thing I have ever read, and that is saying something considering where we are. Holy shit, anon.

This is a very, very good point
and also why that gay of thrones bullshit will never hold a candle to LOTR
