Good news crew, Battlegroup Vympel has manged to clear some of those planetary guns. We've managed to return the Penance into orbit and we'll give you air support as soon as we're able, on the meantime I've sent some resupply transports to land over the outskirts of Watcher's Point as our sensors detected a massive heretic force approaching. Rearm yourselves troopers, you should be able to see the transports landing by now.
Be safe. The Emperor Protects.
Mhm? Very well, I suppose we should go and grab a different transport..
You coming LIX?

These eyes aren't even in 1080p! I demand nothing less than 4k!I had a horrible dream where I shitposted all week without realizing that I left my name on.
>>44708251Bugger, forgot my name guys. Kill me quickly plz.
>Ogres are heavily related to trolls. In fact, a few scholars actually claim that ogres are actually trolls who have lost their healing powers.
>When a troll lose their power, their body no longer keeps up with their insane metabolism and eating habits, causing them to get fat and heavy. Their fur falls out as it isn't deeply entrenched in their skin in the first place, since their body grows it back so fast normally
>The real trouble though is the brain
>Trolls aren't smart at all, but they have at least a basic grasp or humane ethics and occasionally interact with humans and some even take human wives
>Ogres however have no rapid healing of the nervous system in the brain.
>You see, trolls grow back low-activity gray matter around their skull at all times, but it is constantly scrapped and regrown to protect their higher brain functions
>But ogres have no such luck. Their low powered brain matter is permanent now, meaning their brain is almost stuck in a child-like state of development
>Often ogres end up hurting people by accident, trying to play or hug people and crushing them or going into childish tantrums that destroy walls and end lives
>The only thing that hates ogres more then humans are trolls; who see ogres as absolute degenerate. They are the worst parts of disease, retardation, and a perversion of their very existence.
How do you like this?
I approve.
>regenerating trolls
>no mention of the tails
That's not trolls.
At least you bothered to get the picture right.
>>44708142
Very interesting. I'm a sucker for fantasy ecology shit that explains the connections between the races.
Draft is the best Format. Prove me wrong.Oh wait, you can't.
Well since it is, why would anyone even try to disprove this
>>44708060
I dunno, I figured it'd make for a nice mental exercise.
>>44708060
You're right, let's continue to play our supe-- other formats while ignoring OP's thread.
Looking back, is there anyone else that found this release actually quite disappointing? I mean, how many plastic kits actually are there? 5 or 6? And even then they had to sell it as THREE separate books (Skitarii, Cult and Knights) for maximum shekels.
>GW finally has the gumption to do AdMech
>basically everyone relevant from the Design Studio has either left or is in a figurehead role like Jervis Johnson, leaving the kids
I wonder how it might have worked out if people like Andy Chambers and Rick Priestley were still around when GW insisted that every army needed a Super-heavy and a flyer making.
>>44707961
My main disappointment is that I always imagined the Skitarii as 30% high-tech, best-of-the-best soldiers looking like something out of a USMC recruitment ad made by Robert Heinlein, 10% special snowflake weird science Magos, and 60% robots and servitors.
But that's really a personal opinion thing.
>>44708279
Well, they are still pretty damn elite compared to the Imperial Guard. Just not compared to Space Marines or Sisters.
>>44708301
I was talking about aesthetics.
So Parson's not Chief Warlord anymore and there's about to be war in the Magic Kingdom.
Thoughts?
Why don't you go to /co/ or somewhere? Nobody will care there either, but still.
>>44707959
As of the last panel, Gobwin Knob just got 3 new casters...
How long do you think they'll last?
>>44707979
Because Erfworld's a piece of media based on /tg/ materials, and has /tg/ denizens as its target audience? I'm sorry if you're annoyed that it's popped up here, but /co/ wouldn't care about it. So if there's discussion to be had of this, it's to be had here.

Additional resources in the PDF.
Current Project: making a compendium of vehicles for fourth edition.
How you can contribute: write up a short but interesting description of a real, mass-produced vehicle. Ideally the vehicle should be common, a good representative of it's type and/or an iconic design.
Really helpful mode: try to find out vital stats: empty weight, top speed, acceleration, maximum load, number of seats, armour or hull thickness, range (or at least fuel capacity), price (new), included equipment and weapons and the dates it was produced.
Extra helpful mode: convert those stats to GURPS rules.
Currently looking for more civilian cars and motorcycles, plus emergency services vehicles (fire engines, etc) and construction equipment.
All other GURPS discussion is of course on topic as well.
A guide to helping with the vehicles project.
Latest version of the collection.
Now with Airships, Bulldozers, Cargo Ships, Dirt Bikes, Excavators and the A-10 Thunderbolt II
So, re-asking then.
Anyone here ever played GURPS with randoms on Roll20?
How did it go? What timezone were they from?
Is masturbating to Emperor heresy? I think it's a sing of endless admiration oh how much I would give to experience his mighty cock and have his blessings spilled all over me.
>>44707609
Nigga, you gay.
>>44707643
It's not gay if it's for the Emperor.
>>44707680
Quick! Fuck those slaaneshi priests.
But sir, that's heresy.
FOR THE EMPEROR!
It really is a get out of gaol free card.
Which system can I use to run this?
It has to cover martial arts with some robot techniques and interchangeable body parts if possible. The simpler the rules, the better!
That system about postapoc loli-zombies seems a good fit, if you don't mind the fact that you apparently can't play the lone wolf in it.
>>44707413
>cyberbrains
>robot bodies/prosthetics
>Multiple copies of people running around
>Whole of the solar system is colonized, earth is a postapoc shithole.
I would say Eclipse Phase, but it lacks the specialized martial arts for synthetic bodies.

GURPS Martial Arts + Transhuman Space
You wake up in a dark room lying on your back. The ground is dirt, and if you look up you can see the moon through an open wooden door. You think you might be in a basement. In your right hand, you are holding a necklace of some kind.
What do you do?
You hear a woman's voice. "Gary? Are you out here?" She's outside the basement.
>>44707340
I say "Gary" in response.
>>44707340
I put on the necklace.
So it's the middle of Summer, your group walks into a forest and is caught in a full on blizzard. What do you do?
>>44706396
Find some shelter. Duh.
Ask the DM if we're on the northern or southern hemisphere of the planet, and if it has an orbit similar to Earth's.
>>44706396
Look at the trees, if I see thorns, I swear I'm going to punch the GM.
We already got fucking stuck there once.
Never again.
Fuck the Hedge.
>one of the greatest heroes of recent Imperial history
>flaunts the use of a xenos weapon
Why hasn't some Inquisitor offed him because of this flagrant heresy?
>>44706255
Because a radical Inquisitor would stop them.
>>44706255
Because no one would fucking dare.
>>44706255
Because he is a Hero if the Imperium.
And they'd have to get through the rest of the Steel Legion.

Thoughts on Legolas?
They picked a good actor to portray him I thought, but he had no real place in the Hobbit movies.
>>44705519
This.
Fun to watch and he did his part well. Just that his part wasn't needed.
So I need some help and advice. I'm an old hand at 3.5 but this isn't really an area I have any experience with. I have a group of new players and I've done some pretty good character development with most of them. But one character in particular, I wanted to give a crisis of conscience/personality. So I want to give this rogue a powerful, evil dagger, that will slowly attempt to take over his personality. .comi think it will be a great test for him, and a great character development. Very similar to the Ring of Tolkiens tale. However, I have no idea what the mechanics of such a temptation would be. Any experience related to such options would be awesome.
>>44705204
Intelligent item rules are as follows for 3.5.
http://www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/intelligentItems.htm#itemsAgainstCharacters
I would make the item cursed so it can't be thrown away, gives great bonuses, but whenever it forces a check against the item's ego raise the DC by 1 each time.
Have the player character lose charisma over time if the PC doesn't turn evil. When it reaches 0 the PC becomes an NPC.
That is perfect. Exactly the reference I was hoping for. Thank you sir.
You are not a very good DM.
So do you guys use any Oaths or prayers or chants or whatever in any of your games, if so what are they - The Paladin Oath of lawful goodness, the Knights Oath to be chivalrous, the Necromancers chant to rise the dead etc etc?
Besides the Knights Oath from Dragonheart I've never heard a cool oath.
>A knight is sworn to valor.
>His heart knows only virtue.
>His blade defends the helpless.
>His might upholds the weak.
>His word speaks only truth.
>His wrath undoes the wicked.
I make up little diddies or describe a little ritual for whenever my character casts a specific spell for the very first time in-game. That's about as far as I'm willing to go.
I find it works best when the oath is also tied to "use your fucking brain, tho". This prevents going full lawful stupid while still representing the ideals.
Copied this in a .txt from a post some anon made here couple of weeks ago.
>Honesty. Don't lie or cheat. Let your word beyour promise.
>Courage. Never fear to act, though caution is wise.
>Compassion. Aid others, protect the weak, and punish those who threaten them. Show mercy to your foes, but temper it with wisdom.
>Honor. Treat others with fairness, and let your honorable deeds be an example to them. Do as much good as possible while causing the least amount of harm.
>Duty. Be responsible for your actions and their consequences, protect those entrusted to your care, and obey those who have just authority over you
