apperently it's now pathetic to go one on one with a race literally bred for war.
Lets be honest /tg/: The SoB in their current state are just boring and bland. As the only female only(not really) they have nearly no interesting aspects that arent done better else where in 40k.
The only thing that they really, truly have that makes unique and liked so much is the fact that they ARE woman. Face the facts. If they were simply a group of really pious guys in power armor, nobody would give two flying fucks, would they? Of course not. /tg/ only likes them because "muh fordykay waifus". Oh, and don't forget all those hilarious jokes:
>Le slutty SoB
>Bersekers on their periods lel
>they rape kids, cus religion
>grey knight hats lol
Even for /tg/, thats some shit humor
There is a good reason some people would like Female Space marines over SoB, and thats because they are one dimensional, beyond even marines. They are ALL super duper pious. And compared to marines, where not only is that just ONE flavor, but it is done successfully in many different forms (Black Templar, Ultramarines, Dark Angels)
Now, I will admit, this is partially due to their lack of fluff. Because they arent expanded on, they're pretty lack luster. When Necrons have more diversity in their faction than the SoB, you've fucked up. Not to mention their atrocious models and cost.
But, it seems pretty obvious that for some reason, you all are obsessed with this shitty faction, and instead of allowing more focus to be put on the females of OTHER factions, or adding girls to these factions, you put all focus on this lame one simply because they're your go to waifu. Well, its time to cut them loose. Just accept the fact they'll never get updates, and that every other faction is better.
Even the in universe reason for them to exist is a shitty one, and basically amounts to a really stupid get around.
In summery, the SoB are crap and dont deserve anywhere near the praise they get. No wonder GW wants to scrap them.
SoB only need more diverse units and better looking plastic models.
Their theme is no more boring than any other faction. If you find SoB boring, they aren't the faction for you. Don't try to turn them into something they're not.

>the only portrayed militant arm of the church
>hurr they're too pious
Are you retarded? That's their entire point. Next you're going to say all the AdMech guys and techpriests are too obsessed with technology or the Imperial priests are too zealous.
Saying SoB are too pious is like saying space marines are too super human and power armor clad.
>>44538858
>because they are one dimensional, beyond even marines.
In faith that's true but they actually have pretty diverse branches in terms of their role in the Imperium. Which is helpful if you consider them the militant arm of the Ordo Hereticus (secretly or otherwise) because it gives them an in at every level of Imperial society and the Hereticus can't always fight as openly as the other two Ordos often can.
>considering joining D&D 3.5 game
>level 6
>all books allowed
>"By the way, there is no cost to scribe spells in my setting. All wizard schools hand out spellbook copies of every spell in every supplement."
>"Wizards are still balanced because of their spells per day."
Sh-Should I back out of this caster edition madness?
There's no cost to Scribe spells anon.
Wizard's have unlimited spells to cast per day.
Be a wizard.
>>44538642
When he says all books allowed, does he mean *all* books or just all official books?

Who do you think is the most autistic primarch in Warhammer 40k and whyis it pic related?
>>44536429
Lion was just an Aspie. He functioned just fine outside of his dismal social skills.
Perturabo had some real mental issues and was definitely more retarded.
Angron was clearly the most retarded though. Admittedly, it's not his fault.
>literal feral child doesn't have the best social skills
>HURRDURR MUST BE AUTISM
I want this meme to die already.
>>44536515
IIRC Autism and Aspergers have been declared to be the same thing now.
Blood Moon (and 8ED and 9ED as a whole) still have no business here Edition
>Ban Blood Moon because while it wrecks Tron and Amulet Bloom (which is great), it also randomly snipes tricolor decks like Jund and Abzan, who need the greedy manabase to be competitive.
>Banning Blood Moon makes Amulet Bloom and Tron broken, so ban Summer Bloom and ban Urza Tron.
>The only notable cards left in 8ED and 9ED are Choke, Boil and Boiling Seas. Might as well ban them because literally nobody likes these cards. Sleight of Hand also gets removed, but Wizards loves nerfing Storm even if it sucks. There's also Ensnaring Bridge for all you people who whine about Lantern taking too long to win.
There is no good reason to defend 8ED and 9ED.
>>44534608
Tron can play around blood moon decently easy. Doesn't ruin it just slows it down
more like "I can't play around Blood Moon edition"
>>44534608
The hate for moon blows my fucking mind. 3+ color decks are not supposed to be easy to support you stupid faggot, there's a clear trade-off of power/consistency. Get fucked. /thread
Why do you punish wizards in your games by not allowing them to benefit from magical swords and other weapons? Gandalf used a magic sword.
Gandalf was also a fighter, not a wizard.
>>44534539
Gandalf was the LOTR setting's equivalent of an angel in the form of a human.
Your average wizard in D&D is frail little Joey Shitshovel the farm boy who happened to have some magical talent so his parents sent him to the city to learn to read.
Also, magic is powerful enough, it doesn't need any buffs.
>>44534574
kek, how is that even possibly true?
Your name is Thomas Cairn, and you were finally starting to get your life figured out. That is, until you managed to blow it all up. You're dad left you a legacy as the Red Rider, and you carry it as the Red Knight, a hero for a modern age. You had your own company, a suit of power armor, an AI assistant, even a girlfriend. You had a great life. Then an unlucky invention put an end to that. It was just supposed to even out some pressure systems, you didn't know it would end up blowing up like Independence Day.
In a flash of blue light, your life was stripped from you, leaving you in a plain room with an intercom blaring. One thing lead to another, and now you are sitting in a lab, your element, apparently saved from certain death by a federal organization. After repairing your formerly maimed legs, you apparently increased your reaction speed massively, the world slowing down in front of you. Maybe you improved on nerves, or maybe you altered your genetics, all you know is that strange things are happening.

You try tossing a few pencils in the air and note that everything seems to be in slow motion, even yourself. Your mind is racing and guiding your hands slowly to each pencil. Of course you catch each one, but the world doesn't speed up afterwards. Your hands seem to start shaking and they feel like they're on fire, while your eyes feel like they've been run through a washing machine. A trickle of blood runs down your nose and a small drop falls from your right eye. Suddenly, the world speeds into a blur of motion and color and whirls around your mind like a top. Then everything goes black.
You don't wake to an intercom like last time though, instead a small shock erupts through your brain and you shoot bolt upright, immediately on the attack. Before you realize what you're doing, you are already on your feet in a judo stance. Instead of seeing anything threatening, you are greeted by a very old man in an eyepatch holding a broken vial.
"Thank the heavens you're awake! I came as quickly as I could." His voice is rough and weathered by age, but holds a sort of vigor that betrays a man of action. Gazing into his one good eye reveals an anticipation, as if expecting something to be said, as if he already knows what he wants to hear.
>"Thank you."
>"Who are you?"
>Punch him in the face.
>Write-in
>A new mechanic has been added in the form of "Reflex", which allows you to initiate your Enhanced Reflexes. It can be trained over time to increase the cap, but it only regenerates at the beginning of an arc, so spend it wisely. The effect of your Enhanced Reflexes allows you to make two actions during combat or tense situations instead of one.

Does anyone still play D&D 3.5 E in 2016?
Probably.

I do sometimes.

I still run 3.5 game with some friends.

Yea gw always has this problem. To make someone seem awesome they have to kill something amazing. Avatars are usually it which is stupid when they are literal daemons of eldar.
>>44531530
Chapter Masters kill Stormlords and Avatars.

So my friends and I watched Star Wars VII- we were hyped for it, but we, surprisingly and unanimously, eventually came to the conclusion that it tried much too hard to emulate Episode IV, and that they eliminated too much of the good stuff from the old EU. One of them said he’d be down with playing an alternate version of the story, and the rest of the group agreed that it would be a good idea. I’ve been compiling ideas for it for about a week, here are some ideas.
>Basic History
>After 2nd Death Star explosion, many planets decided to throw in lot with Rebels, forming New Republic
>Luke establishes Jedi Academy, albeit with much reduced political power, Leia became Chancellor and ran for two terms before stepping down; she now serves as the Speaker for the House, Han serves in the New Republic Diplomatic Corps (with Chewie as his bodyguard), Lando returned to his post as Mayor of Cloud City
>The Empire, in chaos after the loss of much of its command structure, is quickly taken over by the 1st Order, a secret society that operated within the more ambitious of Imperial circles
>The two sides go to war but ultimately are unable to do anything but stalemate
>A sort of cold war has been reigning for about 25 years, but now the Imperials are getting more brazen
>Clones are becoming more common among First Order troopers, and dark-side Force users are being seen among their military forces
>The players are from disparate backgrounds, trying to find out where all the clones are coming from, and to investigate the Sith threat
>>44529738
Republic Information
>Capital is Naboo; Coruscant is still in Imperial hands
>Jedi Academy established by Luke Skywalker with the assistance of Yoda, Obi-Wan, and Anakin- Yoda passes on his philosophical knowledge, Obi-Wan passes on his combat knowledge, Anakin passes on knowledge of dark side and means of combating it.
>Have recently taken on several refugees from Imperial-controlled planets, especially those with high Force-sensitive populations
>Purges in the Empire have also resulted in multiple defectors; among these people are former Imperial agents, most notably the Dark Jedi Mara Jade, and over one-fifth of the population of Mandalore
>Luke went missing years ago after he was forced to use Sith powers to save troops under his command- First Order and Republic alike are looking for him
>Military forces mainly consist of human/alien troops, supplemented with battle droids as cannon fodder and Force-sensitives as elite soldiers. They go for a “quality over quantity” approach.
>Some Seperatist elements are present, but largely kept in check
>Primary fighter is the Incom Corporation X-Wing; while more expensive than the TIE fighter, it has superior armor and limited auto-repair, while maintaining similar mobility and similar space usage
>Funds insurgency efforts in First Order territory
>Roughly ten years ago, Ben Solo fled the Jedi Academy with several Sith Holocrons and defected to the Empire; whereabouts are unknown but Leia and Han are still looking for leads
>>44529760
First Order Information
>Capital is Coruscant
>First Order has recently started purges of high-ranking and low-ranking members alike; driving them to the Republic
>Military forces primarily consist of clones and conscripts, Knights of Ren are their elites
>Primary fighter is TIE fighter- while inferior to the X-Wing, it is much cheaper to produce
>Knights of Ren are essentially Imperial FOXHOUND/Cobra Unit/Dead Cell; they don’t necessarily have to use the Force
>Example- Jia-Jia Ren, a traitor Gungan whose Force ability can manipulate probability to suit his whims- or Simo Ren, a Corellian sniper who has over 400 confirmed Republic trooper kills
>>44529760
>>44529738
okay I'm listening
>>44529777
>Example- Jia-Jia Ren, a traitor Gungan whose Force ability can manipulate probability to suit his whims- or Simo Ren, a Corellian sniper who has over 400 confirmed Republic trooper kills
And now I'm memeing
>Wounds inflicted with this dagger are not felt by the afflicted
How useful would this be?
>>44529134
It's (usually) not the pain that kills you, so there will be very little difference in combat potential.
But it could be super useful for surgery!
>>44529134
Good for public assasination, not great for a whole lot else.
You could walk by someone in the street and prick them with a poisoned blade, like that spy with that umbrella.
That would be a terrifying assassin's weapon.
Just walk towards your target in a crowded street, jab the dagger into their kidneys while pretending to bump into them, then walk off before they drop dead of blood loss.
Necromancy is one of the many different branches of magic, unlike Enchantment or Evocation it is considered almost wholly evil. While most who focus on the school devoted their power to dark powers, some decided to use their skill to protect those around them even if they were hated for it.
Of course, sometimes the skill is given at random points. Sometimes a blessing and sometimes a curse of fates cruel hand. Or the gods themselves seeing a need to test the will of mankind in new and twisted ways.
Of course, where one lives influences how the gods and the art is used around them. Within Cities, in the wilds, or in dark mountain caves far from any other human beings. As humans were the greatest and only notable form of necromancers.
A: A Community Farm from any large city, yet with a small farming community around it primarly dominated by humans settling the region.
B: The Far North from where men and women on this cold frontier fight against barbarian tribes, goblins, orcs, and other monsterous creatures for simple survival.
C: Island community, from which pirates and merchants alike go into port towns seeking trade for riches both earned and stolen.
D: Big City in which so many people and races lives, who knows what one might find in a dark alley, sewer, or noble’s ballroom.
E: Write in
>>44528668
(Forgot to put Quest in the title)
>>44528668
E: An orphan in a religious organization or cult.
Putting my vote in for D
