SERENA
THESE IMAGES
OPEN THEM AND TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM
>The BBEG has been cursed to live until no one speaks his name or knows of his sins
>Including himself
>The resurrection and regeneration does not restore his memories in full
>People have killed him for revenge so many times that he himself does not know what he did to deserve such a fate
>Every attempt to break his curse early only perpetuates the cycle by adding to his sin
What further twist would you add to this?
Most of the party's formative years were as victims of his crimes in the past. To destroy him and have revenge means erasing the foundation of who they are.
>>48068304
feels like the twist needs to be something that nobody is aware of but at the same time is way too obscure to figure out.
If someone figured it out then burying the guy in a tomb or something for a few hundred years should solve the problem.
too avoid this you would need to have one of his sins be something so infamous that the only way for it to be forgotten is to destroy entire civilisations and burn libraries to the ground and whatnot
>>48068304
>He doesn't even know who cursed him anymore, they're probably long dead
>The only thing he always remembers is the truth of his curse
>By some trick of fate, even if tries just fucking off and being a hermit he becomes famous for some reason

This is MaRo's perception of the color pie.
Do you agree or disagree?
>>48065826
MaRo rarely does anything right, but I have to give it to him today.
She didn't really need to be white, but you could look at it this way: We had a UG walker literally last block. Do we really need another? It would make more sense if she was GWUU, but on some level he's right: She's blue with green and white overlapping.
>>48065826
It seems more like 'Maro is excusing what Development decided' honestly, since Development does most of the work on planeswalker cards, not design
>>48065826
That's fine, I guess, it was a consession to game balance. They wanted her and Jace to have cards in the set, and having two powerful planeswalkers being mono blue would probably be too much. It seems to me that Tamyio, if printed again will either be UG or simply Blue, assuming what Maro said was indeed the reason.
How does your dad feel about your tabletop lifestyle?

Joke's on him, he died of cancer years ago!

When I said I started playing D&D, he told me he played 1e at work during lunch. I think he quit playing when I was born.
I know we're all faggots here but since when did playing D&D become equivalent to being gay?

What would a space opera be like if the dominant human culture was Latin American?
>>48063158
It would be a buncha humans pretending they were from another civilization because their ancestors killed off all the inhabitants and fucked some of their neighbors.
Mostly because in the end they have no real culture of their own and that makes humans insecure.
>>48063158
Space tacos.
>>48063158
There are Latin American cultures, not a Latin American culture.
Has anyone ever tried playing it? Is there a better system for tactical kung fu combat?

Haven't played WotG but I have played its spiritual successor Legends Of The Wulin
pretty great for wuxia/xianxia/old shaw bros bullshit plus it doesn't rely as much on weapons like Weapons of the Gods
The only downside to LOTW is poor layout in the book and a few poorly explained bits regarding lore sheets
Page nine bump
Its a shame /tg/ never seems to talk about Wuxia inspired games

So what is the "normal" point game in KoW ? I'm not talking about "well, depends on your local meta bla bla", I mean the equivalent of 40k's 1500 equivalent. How close to it is a starter box ?
>>48060720
Here in South Africa we mostly play 2000 points.
Starter box gives you about 500 points. The ogre starter box gives you about 1000 with lots of magics items thrown in.
>>48060720
The tournament scene is France is 1500 points, the starter box you have there is 640 points (without magic items)
Because the SU-76M really puts the "su" in suchka.

holy crap anybody read that strawpoll lately about where players are from?
I'm pretty sure somebody is messing with us but they cant all be joke posting. I know there is a Hungary anon for example who posts in /hwg/ so I guess he's here too, but according to the poll we have 295 people from all over the globe in here at one time or another

I so want to do SU-76s, but the price....
>>48030427
Just do it! We need more anecdotal evidence that they work well (or don’t). And it sounds like it could be ages before anyone gets around to doing them in plastic.

And as the smoke cleared the klaxons blare as the blue car carrying a wounded android lurches its way across the finish line signalling the match's end.
With a sigh, the presiding adult picks up the macrophone. " The Battle is SET. After suffering grave losses, and with the help of their foreign neighbors Team Knight and Lupe holds fast to the finish.
