What sort of societal and biological ramifications could you get from humans being forced by circumstance to adopt environment/protective armor in a similar fashion to the quarians?
Or hell, a fantasy setting works too.

Lots of chaffing and itching.
Social: emphasis on etiquette and respect bleeding in from the fact you need to be extremely physically careful at all times or you're dead. See The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, Dune.

Isn't that the novel with the SJW society that manages to be extremely creepy, perverted and misogynistic?
I remember I was quite creeped out when I first read it ten years ago.

I'm not sure what you mean by "worthwhile" exactly, but yes, at least roughly speaking.

Going with this, what kind of doomkoff would say otherwise.
So I made this pdf here featuring all my homebrew rules for OSR style games; it uses 5 basic classes instead of the usual 4 and has some streamlined rules for combat and equipment.
Please tell me what you think. I also plan on running a game with this system soon when I get more free time.

Gentlemen
How do we save Steampunk?
Actually add the punk back in.
And the fucking steam for that matter.
It isn't "shitty version of victorian aesthetics"-punk (though victorian aesthetics do tie in with steam power well). Really we just have to remove the whole need for random overcomplicated machinery made to look complex, and the fetishizing of it.
By taking it out behind the shed and putting a mercy bullet between its rabid eyes.

You do not need to save something that is not in danger.

Last time I played 40K, people were still using Army Builder. Is that a thing that still happens or is there a good alternative these days?
Would it be better to run a Red Scorpions CAD for 40k or play it as a 30k legion against all the 40k players at my store?
A couple of weeks ago we had a nice thread about anime-style fantasy art that wasn't waifu-bait or over the top shonen style. Ya know, rogues, knights, angels, elves, mages etc.
Maybe we could have one again?

You're thinking of sleep, elves don't sleep. They enter a kind of trance that is analogous to sleep though, and suffer symptoms akin to sleep deprivation if they go too long without it.

The Japanese CV stiffens ramrod-straight out of pure military reflex. “You're talking to a ship that spent her whole war sitting offshore of big land bases and grinding them down with constant air attack - something Kido Butai was never capable of doing, I'll remind you. She's “forgotten” shit about continuous anti-land operations that “you never knew.”

“Essex, I'm begging you,” you say hurriedly, watching the overhead plot as the Bush's CAP turns and arrows south-east towards the unsuspecting Essex - they're carrying four AMRAAMs and a pair of Mk-82s with long-delay fuzes for dropping on shallow subs or uninvited torpedo boats - but they'll work just fine against Essex's unarmored deck. “We need your help.”
“I don't care what you need!” she snaps back. “It looks like you have plenty of carriers here, if you got one with so little to do she can bitch and moan on the radio...

FIRST FOR FAIRY WARFIGHTERS!

This thread is going to reach autosage before the first goddamn update.
Jesus tapdancing Christ.
SPREAD THE WORD!
Few sane minds could truly stand millennia of war. After the Volgan War, after the conquest of Mars, after the rise of the Termite Empire and the endless wars against the alien, after border conflicts and assassinations, after purges and pogroms, the endless evidence of man’s inhumanity would grind down even the stoutest heart.
Sanity, however, is an overrated concept.
The ABC Warriors started life in a comic called Ro-Busters, detailing the exploits of a robot search and rescue squad. The Ro-Busters eventually found new life in 2000AD...

Over the course of the story, Nemesis recruited the ABC Warriors to fight for him: the long-suffering hero Hammerstein; the cold, calculating sniper Joe Pineapples; the pea-brained destroyer Mek-Quake; the savage, bestial Mongrol; the pathological traitor Blackblood; the disgusting kludgy cleaner Ro-Jaws; and the mysterious sorcerer-knight Deadlock (sort of – its complicated). Over the course of years, the Warlock’s war against his arch-enemy Torquemada escalated into ever more bloody reprisal attacks. Following the betrayal of a jealous rival, Nemesis’ wife was murdered by Torquemada’s assassins and his baby son, Thoth, lost. Raised like a cuckoo by human parents, Thoth swore revenge against the species that had murdered his mother and the father that had abandoned them when he was needed the most. Thinking his son dead, Nemesis launched ever more ferocious attacks on Torquemada and the Termite Empire, eventually leading him to the murder of Torquemada’s own children.
Soon afterwards Thoth revealed himself. With the aid of a mystically empowered Tyrannosaurus, he aimed to travel to the Black Hole Bypass at the centre of Terra that allowed humanity to travel the stars and destroy it by crashing the black hole and white hole at its core into one another. This would not only utterly destroy Terra, but would also scour the habitable systems of the galaxy clean of life, eradicating the human race and rendering Nemesis’ life work utterly pointless.
After an adventure to the end of time which revealed that Torquemada had used the tang-like organic soup humanity would evolve into as a fuel source for his warmachines, inadvertently transforming their souls into a psychic monster called the Monad, Nemesis and the ABC Warriors split up. Nemesis would pursue his son Earth’s past, where Thoth meant to murder Torquemada’s soul by destroying every incarnation of the man throughout history. The ABC Warriors, meanwhile, would go into Terra’s core to attempt to repair Black Hole Bypass itself.

If you've not read any of this before, this isn't necessarily an ideal jumping on point as its in the middle of the first part of The Black Hole. The start of the story does have a good summary of the story so far.
Huge chunks of Nemesis and the ABC Warriors was stolen for Warhammer 40k. See how many you can spot!
How cultural different a fantasy campaign inspired by the roman era would play out, beside the army and guards being legionaries?
This is important for reasons

subjugated people, religious minorities and enemies of the state would be killed off in gruesome fashion in a big colosseum.
Well, the important things to remember about the Romans are what they had a habit of doing when they conquered people, as that's what would shape the fantasy setting, as well as real life.
The first thing is that everywhere Roman armies went, they built the world's first proper roads, connecting previously isolated people with a larger community. Along with this, they'd build various marvels of engineering, such as aqueducts along the way. Famously, Pontiac Pilate took money from a Jewish temple to do so.
Further, unlike future conquerers, the Romans...
