>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?
A summary has been prepared here: https://pastebin.com/pdx5GmYd

I don't know how many others care but I love a good psychic system. 10th edition having no psychic phase gutted my favorite part of my two favorite armies - TSons and GKs. I don't care exactly how it works, just a flavorful way to customize and use space wizardry would make me pretty happy. Alternating activations are also way overdue in 40k.

>>92599125
Do we need base autism? 40k still doesn't have it, it's for Siggers only
When new terminators dropped in 4th and it was discovered that 25mm based terminators could deep strike into a smaller footprint than 40mm, I immediately rebased my terminators because I wanted no part in waac faggery. There were people using a combo of 25s and 40s to make some really lopsided 'deepstrike circles' that were technically game legal.

I'd understand if people didn't want to rebase though- and ideally rules should be tweaked so bases don't matter that much. Hard to get there if you will use blast markers though

This is a just an amusing side-note: With RPGs being all the rage, my niece recommended me a book she thought was really, really cool setting-wise it sucks.
It goes like this:
>Oh no, Romans with guns are colonizing our peaceful backwater Chinese world
>I really should fight them with my vaguely-defined powers
>THAT HUNKY AUGUSTUS, THO
I just find it really amusing that fantasy for girls is just as crap. She also recommended Iron Widow it's Darling in the Franxx, but it sucks and it's not quite my thing, either.
Anyway, I just wanted to say, it's nice to see the 'YA fantasy to RPGs' pipeline is ongoing.
It reminds me of when we tried to adapt stuff like Animorphs and Gundam as a kid.

The latter, but it's not really a major bit of the story. Honestly, I think it's more of a white male, Asian female thing, with the Romans all being tall, handsome and cruel (but in a sexy way.)
Seriously, there are no fat or old Romans. Meanwhile all the Chinese guys are generally weak, effeminate or addicted to magical opium. There's this hilarious invader fetish thing, which I think wasn't intentional.
I'm not judging, though. If I was writing a fantasy novel I would probably include nubile native women who are inexplicably attracted to human males.

A powerful servant of the Imperium might have manoeuvred himself into such a position as to demand the Warrant of Trade as reward for service, and he may be too powerful to refuse. Or perhaps an existing Warrant has been prized from an established Dynasty, a new line taking control of an ancient Rogue Trader House as the culmination of years of plotting and scheming.

Always possible (Drizzt was a good drow back when drow were an always-evil race) but less likely the further back you go into D&D history. The IP's stance on the nature versus nurture debate has shifted considerably towards nurture in the last couple decades.

Sounds less like an urban legend and more like a fable

With WotC long whoring out D&D to normies who watched critical roll, where can I get this feeling anymore?
The pic is from a pinball game but reminds me so much of 2e. With humor everywhere, detailed art, anachronisms everywhere for comic relief while still having verisimilitude to a "totally not medieval" feel. You don't get that from modern D&D where everything feels like fantasy Seattle with dumbass english accents. Any "medieval" aspects just feel vestigial and tacked on at this point. Its hard to explain what I feel when I look at this image but it feels like it has more personality and fun than anything modern D&D. Like the closest I got to feeling in a long time this was playing the "orcs must die" series.
And I don't think its the Blackrock pandering, or the lazy artstyle or the focus on selling to normies (as much as all those things suck) but I kinda just want a gay rollicking romp through a trap filled fairyland castle killing orcs with the boys and maybe even smooch an elf at the end of it.
>>
>>92606025
Like theres a kind of grit in oldschool art that you don't see in things like The Legend Of Vox Machina. Which seem to be trying to ape or are at least influenced by anime. Everything is just so clean and oddly muted
>>
>>92606025
I believe the answer is still AD&D or early hackmaster. Fantasy mediaeval games from the past 25 years take themselves more seriously, whether its MRQ/Mythras, Rolemaster, Hârn, ACKS, The One Ring, The Dark Eye, Dungeon Fantasy RPG - they're less humour filled.

What is the difference between an Ogre and a Troll?

Trolls are vicious predators.
Ogres are neanderthals
>>
>>92605442
The mods know what an ogre is.
>>
>>92605442
depends on the setting.
>>
>>92605442
>>92606390
obviously variable depending on setting but for a lot of my homebrew ones it generally goes as such;

Ogres are large brutish louts but are roughly equivalent to humans(and most other Demi-Human & Monstrous Humanoid races) in terms of intellectual potential, not often realized due to the rural isolation most Ogres live in but it's there(indeed some of the greatest magic users the world has ever seen have been Ogres), so an Ogre can potentially be reasoned with

Trolls are theoretically capable of reaching approximate human intelligence but most are essentially feral, about as smart as a Raven, Dolphin, or Chimpanzee, sometimes peaking at about equivalent to a human toddler

Giants are well weird, some are clearly hyper-intelligent, while others are almost as bestial as the average Troll
>>
>>92606390
Giants are wise and hold ancient secrets like runesinging.
