>>92599731I’m not buying from a gw store though it’s from an lgs at a discount.
>>92599731>wehave you even looked at the thread you're in
>>92580389In regards to tq, which looks stronger now, Hunter Clade or Nemesis Claw? Getting back into the game and practicing for a tourney and not sure which one to practice more. I played Hunter Clade last year and they seemed pretty strong, but idk if they've gotten any nerfs since or have been pushed out by the newer teams yet?
>>92600469Nemesis Claw is hard to say, they have an unusual combination of strengths and weaknesses and there aren't a lot of people who've even tried them yet so practical experience and data is limited.Hunter Clade actually got buffed early this year, making their rerolls easier to trigger mostly. I played them myself and they felt plenty strong. The only thing I can think of is that Nemesis Claw, like all marine teams, get hard-countered by Kasrkin (especially since Kasrkin can nullify their team wide ability), so Hunter Clade might not have that weakness. If you know there'll be a lot of Kasrkin in the tournament, it'd be safer to go Hunter Clade.I don't think either will disappoint though, whichever you pick it'll come down to your own skill.

What do you think of Traveller: the New Era?
>>92572447A bunch tried that a few years back with the traveller wiki, attempting to colate everything that had ever been published for Classic; GDW, FASA, Judges Guild, plus the content of decades of fanzines and player forums, but they got booted off it as much of the old stuff conflicted with simplified and badly though out drivel (sorry, official canon) Mongoose wanted to sell at the time.
>>92596320You should watch the scifi film Dark Star (1974). It coveres how crew cope living with people they hate for years at a time.
>>92596021I don't give anybody benefit of the doubt on this site. Everyone here is a drooling idiot who can't find their own ass with both hands and a tour guide, including me. I look at myself in the mirror every morning and say "guilty until proven innocent, bitch."
>>92597964I would still say “setting up” is important in CT, but it’s all stuff that happens before the combatRange, having appropriate weapons and armor, and getting the ambush can all be extremely important to the outcome of combat. If you’re a marine you already have some combat skills and a leg up
>>92596320Most likely the crews would be people who have learnt to tune distractions out and manage to deal with hours to days of little activity (and on a small ship, that shouldn't be a lot because a small crew means everyone has to put in work checking that the dials are not in the red and your Space 80s computer hasn't blown a circuit). In fact, I would say spacers in Traveller are much like ship crews in modern times: people who actually *want* to do that shit, and learn to take the good with the bad. One of my uncles was one of these: he hadn't seen a ship larger than a rowboat before enlisting on a tramp freighter as a second signaller. He ended up doing 20 years at sea, turning into a real sea dog in the process.
What's your honest opinion on Japanese depiction of elves in their settings?
>>92583797A man who does not read any Japanese works.
>>92601359it's another>slavery is actually cool and some people are better as slaves-story
>>92601648Honestly the characters are surprisingly fleshed out for what it is.
>>92601708incredibly fleshed out for a trash anime made to appeal to socially awkward otakus?
How could you improve on The Witcher's setting and story? Feels like a world where fantasy species live as second class citizens to or are outright oppressed by humans (and it's implied that this is a cycle with every new major species arriving from the Conjunction of Spheres) has a lot of potential for unique worldbuilding and a wealthy variety of stories but what we actually got was kind of bland and unoriginal.
>>92596782>The series best known for its deconstructionist approach to pretty much everything is le bad, because zoomershits think "deconstruction" means Disney-tier "subverting the expectations"Were you always this stupid, or is it just an online pose?
>>92598057He used it once and it looks perfectly valid.
>>92595237The Witcher author is pretty left-wing. Or at least inso much he criticizes far-right nationalism, given the good guys are always a diverse band of outcasts- Witchers themselves are treated as second-class citizens, genetic mutants and freaks to be shunned despite their incredibly useful skills and role in society. He also pillories Geralt for thinking he's an enlightened centrist who is above the petty squabbles of the settings main factions because him refusing to take a side often ends up as being the worst possible action. That said- the bad guys the Nilfgaardians are portrayed as a mix of the Nazis and Soviets, but they lean more Soviet given the Nilfgaardians actually treat the elves pretty decent and thus the elves often side with Nilfgaard, and then as a result elves get double-persecuted for not being 'loyal' to the northern kingdoms oppressing them. The whole thing is framed as these are the stories of the Northern Kingdoms that persisted and became culturally influential despite that they inevitably fell to Nilfgaard and a new chapter of history began thereafter.
>>92598317I don't think he was implying it was bad beyond using an old meme.
>>92598317>The series best known for its deconstructionist approach to pretty much everything is le badYes.jpg
What’s the most autistic ttrpg system? And no, don’t mention Phoenix Command. It’s not a fully featured system on it’s own but rather a combat system meant to be slotted into another game that you like to play.
>>92599142To be fair, a D&D character sheet would be more convoluted than this if they had to fit all three pages onto one.
>>92599494is that myfarog?
>>92599583yes
>>92593723>CTRL + F>no Shadowrunmight not be the most autistic, but it's up there. It's the only ttrpg I've seen which uses a square root for the purposes of calculating something.

>>92593602F for anon, shouldn’t have commited thougtcrime against elfdom.
>>92599206>literally covering up the existence of elven naziswell, that's pretty wild also technically not nazis but merely 'supremacist'- there's no single elven nation I know of but at least it answers my question of 'what kind of elves would willingly team up with drow?'If they cover-up groups like that, do you think there are some elven serialkillers out there in faerun who get covered by them just because the harpers can't stand the thought of evil elves existing at all?imagine going to court and being like>well, I obviously can't be evil because I'm an elf- ask my harper buddies and today I got a cool new tattoo idea
>>92600048>there's no single elven nation I know ofEvermeet and Evererska tho Evereska is more of a city-state.Funnily enough they are the only ones left and have a rule of generally killing humans on sight.I wonder if this is why they are still around unlike all the others.

I've got another question regarding 4ed rules, if I play BA, I can field only BA units, right, not general SM units? BA codex only lists BA units in the army list.
>>92600477Wasnt that codex a supplemental add-on? I don't think individual marine chapters started getting their own full codices until templars at the tail end of 4th. So no, I think you get everything in the BA list and everything from the vanilla marine list, unless certain units are prohibited.
>>92600477>>92600633The 3rd ed one was an add-on, 4th edition had a standalone codex in white dwarf and as a pdf.
If you were somehow transported into your own setting, but you have no powers or gifts, just plain ol you as you are in real life. Could you survivor there? If so, what would you do for a living?
>>92581414>WildernessDie from starvation, thirst or eaten by local wildlife>CityIf I manage too cook up some gunpowder someone might hire me as an alchemist. If not I'd likely end up a slave.>TribeEither killed on sight or taken in as a shaman for my basic medical skill and setting meta knowledge.>Demon-controlled areaThey would value my knowledge of the setting lore and I could live a meager but comfortable life as a scholar, though I'd be burdened by knowing the purpose of my work.
>>92595239They are peoples' settings. What do you expect?Interesting for ideas but hardly the stuff to go pick over.
>>92599857>What do you expect?I expect OP to engage with the topic he had to make a thread for.
>>92598771I'm not the one who made the thread.
>>92581414As long as I can make a beeline towards one of the Eight Cities, I should be fine. I might even get lucky and be plopped by one of the 3 that ISN'T ruled by an immortal psychopath, and just an immortal jerk. The trick is not getting killed and eaten in the vast stretches of untamed wilderness between said cities.
What's your experiences with this game system, /tg/?
>>925955193
>>92595519Keter was one of the only things I made for AdEva that got accepted. Even then, Siege still did the coloring because I wasn't that great with Photoshop at the time.
It's a bad system for running EVA, focusing far too much on the pseudo symbolism of "oooooohhhhh but the ANGELS are HUMANS under another forms! And so are the EVAS!" to actually feature what EVA fans actually want. It's a game made for people who have 50 different OCDonutsteels in every imaginable canons and more than a pony to their name.Get MAGIUS EVA instead. It's a game that was commissioned by GAINAX ahead of EoE.
>>92600073Isn't Magius basically unplayable? Like, not in a 'I don't like the rules' way but in a 'it depends on a core rulebook that literally isn't available anymore' way.
>>92600245You can run it with just the EVA books. They're all on the Internet archive. An italian guy translated them during the lockdowns.From playing them, Im gonna give you 3 advice>Start with an angel attack, from the get go.The game isn't very challenging if you let your players build up at first. Keep them on their toes.>Hardcap the Positron riflesYour players will see the big damage number and essentially create an artillery battery otherwise and exclusively try to get more.>Work has no use, give it oneThe 'support' characters your heroes also control have a stat named work which has no use following RAW. I ruled that 'everything that doesn't fit within Science or support is work.' and that fixed the issue.
Are potatoes in generic fantasy setting really that much of an issue?
>>92593755throwing fistful of curry into everything is opposite of having a sense of taste
>>92593590>>92551746There are ways of dealing with that.Yes, I know the other one is the aunt.
>>92597307No one's fault but your own that you don't like it, anon.
>>92597307You don't understand what curry is.
>>92600309Retard probably thinks anyone unironically uses curry powder.
Why new GW miniatures look so bad?I just can’t collect something past 6th edition of WHFB, I hate the nuGW style.
>>92569564>hands and feet that actually look like hands and feet instead of lumpy turdsNope, more defined than your example>chain and fur texture that isn't a horrible garbleAgain better def and detail than your example>Guns and weapons that can look good without being the size of a cartoon paddleway off again>Modularity that doesn't result in looking like he man action figuresAnd again...It's almost as if you've never seen a good hand sculpt
>>92564166This model REALLY highlights one of the main things I hate about the new models.Look at how flat the surfaces are. Almost all the detail is painted on flat surfaces to make it look like it has detail, but the figure itself is almost all totally flat surfaces.It's only Forge World still making figures with actual details on them.
>>92547146This. Luckily not every nu–GW mini is dynamic. There are still some nice ones in between
>>92547779Troll with rock and blood Axe commandos I need
>>92547045>more details = more better>more pose = more better>sensible proportions = goodThe first two are just GW overshooting the sweet spot, there was a room for improvement from WFB but they went past it and then some.The third is arguably the biggest issue since some common exaggerations shared by different factions go a LONG way to build a cohesive feel for all sculpts within the game.
Anybody used this RPG for pulp adventures?
>>92571351It's good. The marketing lead was a retard for tying it to a specific setting though.
>>92571351>hollow earth expedition>cooks the books>takes the money and runsexile game studioayylmao
>>92592170Hmm?
Such a cool game. The Ubiquity RPG system is still alive with Leagues of Adventure and Quantum Black.God I wish it was an open system.

My party slew a wing of wyverns in the megadungeon. Have decided a few things:>pseudodragons are wyvern infants, they lose their psychic abilities as they age and their venom becomes more dangerous>with a steady food source a wyvern can grow to almost adult size in a month>no natural predators except adult wyverns>with the wyvern adults slain, the eggs will hatch and wreck havoc on the local ecosystem , within a few game sessions caverns once populated with weasels & owl bears become home to fledging wyvernsAll I gotta do now is come up with some small & medium wyverns

>>92602222>quads I choose to see this as the Four-Armed Emperor’s decree.
>>92600614TL&HR was also one of the first stories I've read in years where the author evidently read the actual Nid codexes, as portraying it as a resentful retard (especially since the BA are nowhere close to being it's most common or even most dangerous enemy) is completely at odds with how it's presented everywhere else (where it's pragmatic to a sociopathic degree). TL&HR was by contrast wonderfully accurate, and having a POV for the Hive Ships was kind of nice. I don't think Bioships are smarter than the Queens or Tyrants that work to feed them though, they're more like giant space cows. With tentacles.
