Only played 3 dnd/pth games so far, all ended at like level 7.
So, I'm curious how often reaching lvl 20 is and what actually happens after that. No leveling? Multiclassing? Divinity?
Nobody has ever reached level 20 from level 1, anon. I think the world record is 17.
>>44605692
Ok but what if?
>>44605797
Hard to say. My 5e group hit 13 recently and collectively decided that we were too powerful and it was making the game boring. Our plan was just to allow players to keep taking levels in any class they haven't hit 20 in.
What kind of a short story would /tg/ like to read?

Meeting and befriending a race of giant/tiny aliums.

I have news to you, son...
So how do Space Marines actually matter in the 40k Universe?
Consider the scale. The population is untold billions spread across an enormous swath of space. There's only around a million marines who are really just kind of off doing whatever they want to.
How are they ever at the right place to be an effective force? It's like having a single SWAT unit for all of the US who is on a continual roadtrip across asia.
I know, I know, trying to make sense of 40K, but this is just the thing that's always bothered me most about the lore. There should...

Its just a game.

Owning a scalpel that's in LA when you're in NYC doesn't help much, does it?
Build a Novice Class for your classed system. (Class designed to teach players how to play, and give them a taste of what other classes might offer. Before allowing players to trade in any levels gained for any of the more specialized classes.)
Hard Mode: Give the option to become a Super Novice.

You're intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humor?
Let's argue over whether or not certain ideas are too snowflake. Doesn't matter the system or game, hell maybe even a story you're writing. We'll also pontificate on why snowflake is bad at some point and maybe get derailed by some pointless bickering over a point that no one really gives a damn about.
I'll start:
Is it too special snowflake to make a DA successor chapter that shrugs off the whole "we have to kill traitors because we almost traitors" thing in an attempt to discover and restore the original aims of the Dark Angels...

Yes. 40k is garbage.
Idea:
A campaign where the players share a gestalt consciousness but also share the same HP and spell slot pool. I. E. One gets damaged and they all get damaged and f one uses a 2nd level spell it's taken from their "pool". The "pool" is made up by adding all of their usual HP and spell slots together.
>>44604138
Not too snowflake. Potentially a mechanical nightmare, though. Try it, get back to us.

Can you have outright orgies in games to highlight debauchery without it being lewd?
>>44603774
>Can you have outright orgies in games to highlight debauchery without it being lewd?
SHIT.
THREAD.
>>44603774
This feels like bait, but I'll take it.
I would say so, provided you focus on the debauchery angle. Don't make your players think about how lewd it is, make them think about a tangle of limbs belonging to old, fat, rich bastards and bitches who are so jaded that this is the only way they can get their rocks off anymore.
>>44603774
W40k has Eldar. Then Eldar had Slaanesh.
Exalted also tends to do this. Ancient mythos is riddled with orgies and sex in general, and since Exalted tries to be based off it, orgies and sex are just part of the setting; it's up to the GM to decide their frequency, intensity, and degree of player involvement though.

I don't think anyone legit hated Vulkan, even in the lore.
>>44603436
Nobody actually hated Vulkan in the lore before the Heresy, and even then Curze only hated him because he couldn't kill him no matter how hard he tried.
The Khan wasn't really a dick, he was simply his own man with his own concept of honor that differed greatly from his brothers. He had his place in the Imperial war machine, and tried to do what he thought was best for his sons, not himself.

Dear Emperor,
Regarding your son, Jaghatai Khan, I have found that his view regarding the fair treatment of Imperial Citizens to be at unease with the Imperial Truth.
His views against women... are frankly barbaric. Viewing them as no more than cattle and grox herd. And one incident involving a female astropath and cane made of Ork topknot hair has left a number of scars with the several factions of the guild.
And regarding his treatment...

I'm curious, anyone seen a paladin level "goodguy" arcane caster?
My GM and I were having a discussion about this, his stance being "Of course there are good wizards in roleplays." and mine being "Then where are they?!?!"
In my 7 years of table top roleplaying, I've only ever seen wizard players and npcs be outrightly EVIL or some neutral "Anything for power" bullshit, which usually ends with them making a deal with a Devil/Evil God.
>>44603130
Erm, yes. The current mage contact we have is a quintesntial goodguy. Hells, the entire mages guild is more or less focused on helping the town in one way or another.
It's just rarer to find good guy mages, for precisely the reasons you said. That doesn't mean they don't exist though.
>>44603130
Raging tryhards are often drawn to mechanically powerful classes, and in D&D3.5 et al that happened to be the wizard, that's all there is to that.
>>44603130
I think it's a combination of a few things. First, if you're going to make someone that good, then the temptation is to stick them in a class that reflects it. AKA paladin or cleric.
Second, there's the idea that good mages have been "done to death" a la Gandalf. Of course, the trope is so widely avoided these days that it's no longer true, but that's still the first instinct when people propose it.
Third, there's the fear for NPCs that if you make them...

Once again I bend my mind to how to 'fix' space marine terminators and vets as a whole and with your consideration:
Veteran space marines : WS4 BS4 S4 T4 I4 A2 LD9 Sv3+ Squads 5 men 100pts
(standard marine with +1A +1LD )
You may add up to 5 more Veteran space marines at 20 pts per model.
The Squad may take Terminator armour at +30 pts per model.
Terminator armour gives 2+/5+Sv +1S +1T, relentless, bulky, may not make Sweeping advance
If Terminator armour is not taken, the squad may take Space Marine Bikes at +7pts per model.
Or take Jump...

An additional 30 pts for terminator armor is too high. Necron lychguard with sword and board only cost 30 each. And a squad of them would still shit on terminators even with your buffs
>>44602964
veterans need WS/BS/I 5
terminator armor and storm bolters need to not suck
>>44603251
Terminator armor gives 2+/4++ and additional wound. Storm bolters are Salvo 2/4

Is Wizards seriously ripping off Bloodborne?
This is not even bait, it's just nothing.
>>44602333
The similarities are a little suspicious, but I reckon we should wait it out to see how far it goes.
>>44602347
How is it bait? Is it really a coincidence that they do both victorian horror and now lovecraftian horror in the same setting? This is not a regular mixture, anon.
>>44602374
I don't personally mind it, I think it's really fucking cool. But still, are we really just going to get Bloodborne: The Set?
Has there been any spoilers?
