Has anyone had an idea for a board game before and tried to develop it?
What would be the best way to do so?

I’ve always wanted to design board games but I have lots of problems in the early prototyping stage that I never get past. I went into the new Game Design General thinking there would be stuff about board game design, but it’s mostly RPG homebrew. Honestly, if you’re interested in it, I’d recommend the subreddit /r/tabletopgamedesign.
Aside from the $500 I'm into KD:M, my next highest total is for BattleCON. I'm sitting around $140 for that, and I still need to buy Devastation + Extended. I'm still debating buying Claus and Windall from their online store, but $14 for a single character is fucking steep.
If I could afford it, I'd buy The Queen's Gambit, but I think the new version will have to do.
I'm in for quite a bit. At a quick guess, I'd say I'm close to $1000 (excluding KD:M).

Valkyrie.
I would like to hear from FFG as to why there are no stats for one proper instead of a cargo variant, especially in OW.
>>44608714
My Shipfu is definitely a Gun-Cutter. It's all snug and portable and just about as devastating as a Valkyrie but with a lot more utility.
A question my players will pick up on immediately. What sort of stuff would the Ordo Chronos be packing? Our Inquisitor time travelled and he's evaded the time-police thus far, but they'll catch him soon and I'd like for the encounter to be memorable and unique so I don't want everyone to have hellguns and plasma pistols and be wearing carapace armour. But I can't think of anything beyond "Stasis grenades"

>playing tabletop RPG, having a good time
>"I'm a better roleplayer than this other guy, so I should be rewarded with more mechanical bonuses and NPC contacts! I don't want to play at all if it's not a contest!"
Why is this attitude so common? Why can't roleplayers just have fun creating a story and contribute as much as they're capable of?

Because people are shitty.
I feel you. On a related note:
>player roleplays out a long, very convincing argument to an npc about why exactly they should do the thing, very well-acted
>rolls a 2, char not built for diplomancy
>DM: Okay, I'm gunna give you a bonus because that was too well-roleplayed to just be a 2, he agrees with you and does the thing

>The races with the toughest codex units in the game belong to the Tau and Eldar, both races that favour speed, technology, and stealth
Why is this allowed?
>>44693894
THIS THREAD NOW BELONGS TO THE IMPERIUM OF MAN!
>>44693969
Because races with advanced technology always superior.
Why are swords so popular? Even in like actual medieval literature, the heroes still usually use swords. Why do you never see heroes in stories with axes and spears and such?
>>44689807
Because it represents long penises penetrating the wanting flesh of others.
>>44689807
Its seen as a noble weapon and historically it represents power in more than just the physical sense, more so than those others you listed.
There's plenty of Lancers in ancient stories. Sir Gawain and Cuchulain come immediately to mind. Hector and Achilles used their spears much more than their swords. Odysseus was an Archer.
"Come on!" I pull at Amalia's arm, "We need to hurry to Sunday School! Kerstin said today's lesson will be about the other countries in the New World!"
No response. She just keeps sitting there, staring at her hand. So strange! I don't remember her ever having trouble getting up in the morning! Maybe she didn't sleep well after all? Or maybe it's that puberthing! I hope not because Kerstin says it'll happen to me too any day now and I don't want to be a lazy sleeper!
"Hey! Amalia!" I try again, gently poking her with my foot while simultaneously putting my dress on. Then a little harder.
"Amaliaaa- OW!" Maybe a little too hard, I admit as I lose balance and fall right down on my butt. And even then, she still won't stop staring at her stupid hand. This has to stop! I push myself back onto my feet, pick my pillow back up from the floor and start the countdown.
"This is for your own good! Three!" Draw.
"Two!" Take aim.
"And..."
"...two more minutes." She finally mumbles lazily. Two more minutes, though? We're already late!
"Fine, but I'm going on ahead so hurry!"
The only response is a muffled "'kay" as I leave the room, prepared to make a run to the church. That is, until I catch a particularly rare scent, one that hasn't found its way into our house for so long. So unmistakable, I'm not sure how I didn't detect it earlier.
"Fresh bread!"
Sure enough, I find Papa already seated with a basket of delicious fresh bread and the table set for three. Though it looks like he started without us. He casts a single glance at the table as he responds.
"Well, it seemed fitting that we would celebrate a little now that Amalia is back home. Little did I know you'd both decide to oversleep and miss the entire thing. I guess the two of you had a lot to talk about last night, huh?"
Hrm, I wish! We barely talked at all! And now I'm going to miss the fresh and warm bread! It looks so good, too! Although...
>I'll just bring a slice with me!
>No time, have to hurry!
So soft...
So pretty...
So... tingly?
Moons damn her, why does she keep doing this! Is she trying to mock me? Tease me? Or does she seriously not see what she's doing to me, how she's making me feel?
Damn it all!
I wish I could just turn this stupid feeling off, put it out like any ordinary fire. Instead it just keeps growing, keeps spreading into every part of my body, even the parts I'm not meant to have. And it keeps. Tingling. Everywhere!
I try to take my eyes away, I really try, but I just can't stop looking....
