>the Tau are evil brainwashing dictator commies
I want this meme to end
Is anyone else annoyed at GW's desire to make the Tau more grimdark? It felt pretty refreshing to have a friendly race who'd rather negotiate first before sending in the big guns. Sometimes the endless grimdark of each faction gets rather exhausting.

Nah the Tau are kinda boring and need something to spice them up.
Mechs can only go so far

If you wanted something refreshing and different from the 40k grimdark, did you ever try, I dunno, taking a break from 40k and looking somewhere else?

It's bullshit man
Literally just give it a power glaive profile or w/e, say it replaces the shield generator and is a nod to the close quarters urban combat the Tau increasingly find themselves in against the imperium
Do you have any locations near you that could be used as inspiration in a campaign.
I live in the same city as the Freetown Christiania. There are areas out there that are like pulled from fantasy novel. The concept of a rogue city within a city where wizards and other alternative folks live in complete contrast to the bureaucracy of the surrounding city could make an interesting capital city in a campaign.
Pic related, took it out there the other day.
That motherfucking huge swampland to the south that occupies a third of my country.
Some people in Polesia were unaware of WW2 'til germans came to them in person. Or even after war ended, 'cuz nobody reached to some places.

Didn't they shut that down a few years ago?
The Tivoli should deliver nice creepy vistas during off hours.
My home town has persistent rumors of old tunnels, a place where the US kept nuclear weapons for decades without telling anyone, and a bridge whose builder tricked the devil himself who made an appearance at the opening.
A hindu temple built into a cave system?
Nowhere near my place but a nobody there can go on 4 chan. A temple built on the gates of hell themselves. The eastern idea of hell just means it's rather neutral. But with a D&d idea of hell, an order of monks with orders to hold the line against hell itself.
Hey M/tg/
Would Legacy be more diverse without Brainstorm? It's pretty clear that brainstorm decks dominate legacy, with most top 8s containing 28-32 copies of Brainstorm. This may be good or this may be bad, but I just want to explore whether this reduces diversity in the format.
Brainstorm fits into every type of deck, so I don't think it can be said to support aggro more than control or anything like that. What it does is make less consistent decks like Big Red, MUD or Jund worse by comparison, to the point that they do not do well at large tournaments.

It would weaken the dominance of blue decks but it wouldn't add any diversity. If you want to add diversity ban Force of Will.
>>48072324
>If you want to add diversity ban Force of Will.
You mean "if you want the format to be 90% Combo".
>>48072364
Then ban problematic combo engines or pieces. A 1CC mono-U cantrip that helps consistency isn't the reason diversity is limited.

I have to say that corrupting a child in real life like that is pretty bad.
I get pretty sad when I see it.
I went to school to become a teacher. But after finishing my bachelor's I did some work with my degree and discovered that the world is a pretty terrible place and if I were to enter it trying to make it better, I will inevitably fail some people through no fault of my own.

Hi /tg/, not a usual poster here.
What would you recommend to someone who is interested in tabletop RPGs and, more generally, good boardgames, but has never played anything more complex than Monopoly? Just a real scrub of a human. Not even many video games.I'm the scrub. It's me. My family was dirt-sucking poor.
Betrayal at House on the Hill's a good place to start.
>>48069589
Never played it, but I've heard good things about this, OP.
Do you live anywhere near a dedicated gaming store? You might be able to find a group of RPG players that will show you the ropes.

Try >>>r/homestuckOr maybe if you told us what kind of game you were interested in, such as setting, number of players, etc

You clench your jaw at Kiyohime's remark that there's a Servant in the sky above you, apparently beyond the limits of yours or your partner's sight given that neither of you can catch sight of such a being. However, before you can either instruct Kiyohime...

Let's hit up the Church again.
You decide to head to the Church. Going to the forest is unlikely to bring any results since it's still daytime, and you've talked to Xuan enough, so trying to get some information out of Elena might be your best use of time.
Given that the Church is clear on the other side of town, the walk there is a lengthy one, made longer by the fact that Kiyohime seems to be perturbed by the sheer speed she had witnessed minutes earlier. Granted, you're bothered about it too; over a thousand times faster than a Servant...that's at the point of being called a...

Has anyone done an Archer-esque campaign?
Were you able to capture the spirit of it or did it turn into a mess of half-baked double entendres?

>not dual wielding pistols
By Archer-esque do you mean a campaign in which a group of ostensibly very capable professionals bugger up every mission in increasingly zany ways, but most frequently by being a bunch of dysfunctional glory hounds? Because that is almost every game I have ever had.
Who's your setting's biggest misunderstood genius?
You're presuming I made my own setting in such a way that I have meticulous notes and a pre-made land rich with details.
I don't, because that's fucking stupid, and a waste of time.

I don't see how these two are related and how is the latter one bad unless there is metagaming involved.
>>48068432
The latter is fine if you're playing a smart character. Less so if you're playing the fool of the group.
>>48068432
Loki and Thor in the old myths adventuring around, Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser, the Fellowship of the Ring, just about any good fantasy story has the heroes making rash/risky/emotional decisions.
It's what separates a fun adventure from tabletop Final Fantasy Tactics.
The players are supposed to be adventurous risk takers, they should have an impulsive element to them, not act like a bunch of Vulcans (unless they are a bunch of literal Vulcans).

Fellow GMs I need your help.
I'm currently brewing a realistic XIII century setting and everything is doing fine, since I love medieval history and I sorta know my stuff in the matter.
Problem is I really want to come up with something original regarding religion, a cult which echoes Catholicism and covers pretty much the same social layers the medieval Church did.
I want to avoid something like The Seven Pointed Stars, cause it's both unoriginal and an obvious rip-off, but my creativity just went blank today.
Keep in mind this world has crusades,...

I wonder what the possible benefits of putting an interdictor into low orbit could be. Seems like unnecessarily putting a valuable asset at risk.
with that said, what do folks think of the new admiral and interdictor stats for armada? seems like a surprisingly solid ship on its own, with a lot of solid tricks onboard.
>>48029400
Given the presence of the SSD, several Imperial-class escorts, and Death Star in the background, it was likely part of a defensive formation.
>>48029898
I mean, the Death Star almost brings up more questions then it answers. why deploy this formation into close orbit with a death star overhead? are they securing a VIP from a planet before blasting it, or is the death star supposed to be there just to remind you everything is star wars-y?
