Continuing the theme of the last thread : What is the most egregious misinterpretation of the rules you've seen a fellow player try to get away with?
>>44443309
This is semi-relevant. I have a question on how I should go about interpreting a Monk's Unarmored Defense with respect to a Druid's Natural Armor it gets when transformed into certain creatures. Does Natural Armor prevent them from adding their Wisdom modifier to their AC?
>>44443309
Not necessarily a misinterpretation of the rules, but one of the players I play with died and then threw a fit after he realized he had an ability that could have saved his life, arguing that "His character would know that he could meld into stone, so he should be allowed to retcon that and survive" The DM was staunch and resolute saying, if you forgot your character panicked and forgot and died.
The player ended up getting so mad he stormed off, only to come back and sitting the rest of the session...

General consensus has been that they do not stack. I don't believe there has been an official ruling from sage advice.
Most beasts have "Natural Armor," so if you REALLY wanna be pedantic, natural armor trumps unarmored.
Why are Ultramarines better than other space marines? Is it superior genetics? Is it superior training or culture? Perhaps it is a combination of the two or some insubstantial quality of the soul.
>>44443007
Plot armor.
>>44443007
superior marketing by GW marketers

You spelled "world eaters" wrong faggot.
Why does Japan consider full-blooded "demons" normal enough to be main characters (which would be PCs in tabletop), while full-blooded demons are almost always NPC-only in Western tabletop?
>>44442139
Wow son it's almost like something has different cultural connotations in two different cultures. Amazing!
Kill yourself.
>>44442139
Probably because Japanese demons tend to be basically just humans with pointy ears or purple skin maybe, but western demons tend to be more like horrible monsters, as a generalization.
Because they have an entirely separate history of mythology.
Why is Ghazghkull so well-respected? He failed to conquer Armageddon three times. Constantly failing to achieve your main objective and getting BTFO by an old humie hardly seems like inspiring leadership.
>>44442078
Because he is big
>>44442078
Cuz he's da biggest and da strongest and youz just a puny grot whos never spawned in iz life

Lilith for MVP.
Love that she's "fated" to live, at least until Marie uses a healing scroll on her.
Does anyone know who Delta is a reference to? She looks familiar from somewhere.

Warhammer Fantasy General, focused on the fluff and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. 1st and 2nd Edition, but discussion on 3rd Edition and the Tabletop is welcomed... ish.
Another thread is yet again about to fall of the board, so I'm starting yet another one. Let's try to not let this one derail.
If you see our resident autist coming back and posting meaningless shitposts even though things have been explained to him for the past five threads, hit the "â–¶" to the right of his post number and report him.

I demand to see this.
What's your favourite province of the Empire?
I fucking love Ostermark.
To jumpstart discussion:
How many careers do you consider 'appropriate' for end-of-campaign villians to have? I'm working on what I am tentatively terming 'the big three' for my campaign,and so far one is four careers, the other six, and the third is probably going to be about five.
So let's say you are making a futuristic cyberpunk-ish setting in which you you can change any part of your body with an objectivly more effective prostheses
What could be cons of doing so? The ones I figured so far are
Cost
Maintenance
EMI and hack weakness
Feel free to make up your own
Also, what could be pros of staying fully human ?
>>44430692
Phantom pain. Loss of sensation. With limbs, that cognitive dissonance thing where you don't recognize it as your own. High cost of insurance. Water damage. Obsolescence, possibly within a few years.
>>44430692
Aren't there pretty severe consequences that follow limb amputation? (medically/health-wise that is)
Admittedly I can't really remember, but you don't just lose a huge chunk of tissue and suffer no ill effects.

Psychosis.
Adversary is a new, custom format for Magic: The Gathering intended to be played over Cockatrice.
Update 3 is now live. 50 Adversaries and counting!
>How is it played?
In Adversary, players select an Adversary card from an existing archive, or create their own. These Adversaries enter play from turn one, and possess abilities that change the way the game is played. If you've ever tried out Vanguard, you'll feel right at home. Adversary uses 61-card decks (including the Adversary card).
The format is Modern Singleton, and...

Now then, it may be a little while before update 4 comes around. We have accumulated an insane number of Adversaries in a very short amount of time, and we can't afford to add anymore without first getting accustomed to the 50 we have available now. Adversary isn't just a custom card thread in disguise. It's a format, and in order for the format to grow, the existing cards must be playtested.
If you don't want to wait longer for the next batch of custom cards to be added - help out. Get on...

You broke your own rule with that one, nigger. I have no idea how do I even
Third for smoke weed everyday.
You have just been utterly beaten by the BBEG and are bleeding out fast.
However, you have enough time to cast a single spell (arcane or divine, excluding wish and other spells that allow you to revive yourself) or perform a single attack/combat maneuver.
What do you cast/do, and what do you say to the BBEG as you cast/do it?
Teleport

I intentionally fuck up dispelling the book of exploding runes in my pack.

>What is Exalted?
An epic high-flying role-playing game about reborn god-heroes in a world that turned on them.

Read the 3e core book (link below). For mechanics of the old edition, play this tutorial: http://jyenicolson.net/exalted/. It'll get you familiar with most of the mechanics.

My instinct here is that if the Siddies are memorable, something has already gone terribly wrong. Not that they're Extras or anything, but their preferred M.O. is to blend into the background while subtly arranging events to fit their plans.
If there's a fucker glowing violet and about to punch you into a duck, his plans have already gone completely pear shaped. Which I suppose is also memorable, if you're the one who fucked them up.
>>44421826
>What has been/is the most memorable/favourite Sidereal character in a game you've played/run?
Exalted Modern Chosen of Journey, halfway between Jason Statham's Transporter and Breaking Bad's Jonathan Banks I built for a one-shot game.
The player made the character, obviously, and he ended up being the most enjoyable character to appear in that game.
>>44422730
>The player made the character
By which I mean his interpretation of the character is what made it so enjoyable.
/tg/ would you play in/run a campaign with Darkest Dungeon's aesthetic?
Wherein the party is a group of hired mercenaries tasked with helping the heir of an estate restore the holdings to its former glory, and the ancestor of the estate was a power-mad immoral wizard who did too much digging and rightly fucked everything in a five-mile radius of the estate?
As a GM, I'm planning for my next campaign to be based off of/inspired by Darkest Dungeon. With a little bit of Bloodborne and The Binding of Isaac thrown in as well. I have most everything planned...

LotFP with a SAN mechanic bolted on.

THIS, it even has fire arms rules
also I heard they added a new class?
Torchbearer's got a lot of very similar gameplay so you might want to check that out. Very crunchy game, but it's worth learning. LotFP is good too.

Okay guys following this post will be all the turns taken last game after which will be the new season. After the new season you may reply at will etc. Each of my posts will say either DONT POST or POST untill the new season starts.
Quick Notes.
Because of the Fall Event and many players gaining new foods, if you have fewer then 3 food sources this turn only set food to Plentiful(1.5x growth) If you have 3 or more set it to Abundant(2x growth) and modify your population gain accordingly.
