Baneblade EditionPrevious Thread >>92640657>What is Project Fourk-Hammer?Project Fourk-Hammer (provisional name) is an experiment to see if the 40k community on /tg/ is interested enough to come together to homebrew a fan fork edition of Warhammer 40,0000's 3-7e Era, primarily inspired by 4th Edition. Think Warhammer Armies Project but for Warhammer 40k's Fourth Edition.>Why are you doing this?/tg/ complains about modern 40K constantly. At least one /tg/ anon has already succeeded in producing a viable alternative to 40K in the form of OnePageRules, however this is not satisfying to many since it is too shrimplified and lacks the flavour and identity they love, or once loved.>How can I contribute?Post in the thread things you want to see in your idealized version and respond to other posts making proposals, or present material you have prepared such as rules text or art. The project is looking for someone who will commit to acting as a maintainer, which means compiling and editing discussions, effectively a secretary position.>What has been done so far?Currently, the statlines, dice mechanics, hit and wound tables and a good portion of the fundamentals are the same, but how they interact should be more engaging. How it functions from roll to roll will feel familiar. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>92724548>Does STR>=Tx2 follow an instant death rule?Yes, and we also added the inverse - if the Strength is half the Toughness or less it cannot wound.The only interaction where this makes a major difference to 4th is that Strength 3 is now useless against Toughness 6, which is something that will need to be addressed with certain armies.>I have a weird ideaToo abstract for me. Also be aware in the bottom result on the Wound table, that isn't a bonus dice. It's simply that if you roll a 1, you fail to wound, on a 2 or 3, you wound, and on a 4, 5, or 6, you double wound, all on the same dice roll.The top one where you need to re-roll does add a little bit of extra time but there are very few cases where it comes up due to the aforementioned half Toughness rule.
>>92724592If there are instant death and cannot wound rules in play then I see no reason for top and bottom rows to exist.6+ has a bad chance to wound already and forcing a reroll into a 4+ feels unneccessary, and I feel that '4+ causes 2 wounds' is there purely because of W2 marines. I don't think that 40k needs such granuality for niche situations.
>>92724732It'd also mean that the rare and coveted S9-10 weapons become even better monster hunter weapons. It would also mean that S7 weapons also have a niche as character killers. But it seems to be there for elite armies. Marines, battlesuits and mid sized nids would feel the pain of these changes the most desu.
>>92704921Might as well rename the keyword to artillery to make it both accurate by definition and to keep the typos/mental association with the archaic word for orders and arrangements.
>>92719455My first impression on seeing the table was>This will make things needlessly complicated>>92724479This one is far more fitting and embodies the entire "this weapon is powerful enough to rip you limb from limb" feeling that instant death had while also putting extra hurt on high T monsters who usually only suffered one wound (and with such a table could be brought down easier).I don't know if it's in the current edition of 40k, but I saw HH2.0(?) had weapons with brutal statline that would confer X amount of extra wounds on successfully wounding, which as far as USR's go might be very fitting to describe how deadly weapons are vs having all sorts of wound table fuckery.I get why people hate the 2W statline for marines because it reminds them of primaris, but honestly I think that marines would always have been better as 2W baseline. Weight of fire always brought them down as quick (it seemed) as fast as they were able to chew through guardsmen, nids or boyz; unless they got a cheeky rapid fire off which was quite rare.

I just think it's neat for them to have a humanoid, and then a monstrous form.
>>92701131>I cannot imagine a vampire who considers partnership with "lesser beings" as anything but submission.A courtship dance between two predators. Because if it isn't rough, it isn't fun.

What is the actual reason for Imperium ships being so massive?
>>92724784To give them the benefit of the doubt, I'd put it as Lunar-class at 2km, Battle Barge and Emperor-class at 4 or maybe 5km. This would mean Sword-class is somewhere around 600? 700? meters. These are more sensible numbers.
>>92710746To compensate for the Emperor's tiny dick.
>>92724784>>92724874The ship sizes from various books from Black Library are in accordance with the sizes from Rogue Trader. The Gloriana class size, for examples is officially set by several books, set at 26km like Maccrage Honour. I don't know why you still insist on your numbers. By several Black Library books, Rogue Trader, and the Horus Heresy series, the ship sizes are multi-kilometer. 1.6km for Sword. 5km for Lunar and 4.5km for Dauntless cruiser, these are the official sizes by different books.
>>92724874>Battle Barge and Emperor-class at 4 or maybe 5km5km for 22 turrets, 32 small crafts and 300 combat personel is the least armed battleship ever made. I cannot fathom that this was the authorial intent behind BFG. Ultimately this is a clash between two eras: the olde times where 40k was written by dudes who fanfic-ed their favorite historic battles and where numbers were sensible, and now where it's written by sci-fi authors who write in a vacuum where numbers can be whatever.
>>92725030The original Battle Barge and Emperor-class are pegged at 8km, that's even more insane. 4-5km is a decent compromise between the FUCKHUEG crowd and those who want a more sensible approach.

Just want to shout out to Hot Pants Anon, who inspired me to buy a set of watercolour paints. If anyone else is considering it, do.I watched a 6 minute youtube video on how to use them.
>>92724877>dude, what happened to my saucer?
>>92724877Cute ayylmao!I'm really glad that I got you to start drawing, anon - seriously. There's a whole bunch of ways to use watercolors, and it gets really personal. I think only oil is more flexible. If you make a drawing in pencil you can simply learn to make even washes or gradients and fill inside the lines. Flat colors look great in watercolor because there's a lot of texture that you can't reproduce quite right digitally (pic rel by Ivan Bilibin he's one of my all time favorites, look up Jean Giraud too). Best thing about watercolor for me is that I can make little sketches on the fly in odd places outsde of home and still manage to paint some color in with a little plastic palette I take with me all the time. I prefer regular brushes but because I'm often outside I have plastic brushes with a reservoir called Pentel Aquash. The Derwent ones are really good too. You cannot do certain things with them because they're always wet to a degree but for just painting some color in they're great.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to the first decade of TSR-era D&D, derived systems, and compatible content.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade—less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching meta-plots and a greater emphasis on player agency.If you are new to the OSR, welcome!

>TQAstral and Ethereal travel: Have your players ever used them? When? How? What happened?
I just ran my first OSR game with my regular group (we started on 3.5 and they've always of been buildfocused minmaxxing kind). There was much pissing and crying about the lack of builds and clunk, but once the session got going they were totally invested into it. They finished the first dungeon (Tomb of the Seprent Kings, which I was told is a teaching module for veteran players of other systems) and they immediately went back to town to plan how to invest the gold into ventures, hirelings and buying a house to use as base for future adventures. They turned a oneshot into a campaign.I can say I'm very surprised, pleasantly so. Is this the magic of OSR? I need more recommendations on good modules and how to plan for more wilderness adventures, since they want to set out exploring on the overland now. I'm looking into ACKS for when they have enough money to invest into small armies and warbands, but I guess that'll be in higher levels, provided they survive.
>>92724981>Is this the magic of OSR?Yes! You've done everything right, sounds like.>I need more recommendations on good modules 1. B2 Keep on the Borderlands.2.
