You are Laura Kinney, mutant vagrant.
Your mission is simple – you are to infiltrate the dwelling of a local gangster known as Zhang Lei and extricate an artifact of great archaeological importance. Your secondary is to uncover any link that may exist between the New York Triads...

John is tense. You can see the sinews working under his skin, stretched taut along his muscles. This is good. He sets down Layla, who appears to be feeling somewhat ill after her first flight.
Layla Miller makes you uncomfortable – you edge slightly away from the two of them while he makes sure she’s alright.
Within six minutes, Nico Minoru arrives, apologizing for her slight tardiness. You greet her quietly, and she tells you she likes your choker. You feel your cheeks redden very slightly.
Nico is one of John’s coworkers. She is quiet, like you, and does not pressure you to converse. You find this relaxing. There are a number of people you no longer feel excessively anxious in conversation with, but you still find the act exhausting at the best of times. People do not come naturally to you.
“Right then.” Says John, casting his eyes up the height of the building. You know this present look – he is going to defer to your judgement. You have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, it is the correct action, and his confidence in you is pleasant – like a warm, soft glow at the base of your stomach. On the other, it draws attention to you. “Anyone have any ideas about how we should do this? Laura?”
You feel Layla’s eyes on you, and it’s like something burning against your skin.

Tonight is the last chance I have to pack Christmas stuff before embarking on the filthy long drive to the dreary mountainous realm where I'll be spending the rest of the season.
Do any of you play your tabletop RP's in any place other than someone's house?
Anyone have any experiences with playing in unusual locations?
How do you feel they impact your experience with the game?
if it's a new group you usually do it in a public place, 90% of the it's a local game store which has tables and stuff.
I play in bar/pub on a regular basis with the local group that organises games.
It's a pretty cosmopolitan city so the place is a bit hipsterish to begin with. Most of the people there are old men but we have the quieter end of the bar pretty much to ourselves unless it's busy.
Really nice craft beers and absolutely top quality food as well that always helps things.
The staff there are all great and get what we're doing but once in a while one of the guys will ask us what exactly we're doing. It's sorta confusing to explain but they're...

Last Thread >>44285973
Thread Question: Who are your best/favorite contacts that you've used or seen used?
How often do you use maps? Any GM's here? I am just curious because I want to use a combination of theater of the mind AND maps. When would the maps come into play though? For example, I am thinking of having the group find some way into a factory, I wouldn't need a map of the surround area while they are info gathering but I would probably want a map of the factory right?
>>44306875
Not a GM (though I'm gearing up for a campaign), but from a player's perspective, this is probably what should be covered:
- A rough map of the factory, at the very least. You're going to have combat in the factory from the sound of it, have it ready for players to be there.
- A general idea of the surrounding buildings. Doesn't have to be a map, but just like, "there's a warehouse across the street, two stories, windows facing the factory". Might have a sniper, might...

Anyone got any story time?
You shake your head, feeling confident. If Nila can do it, then you may as well try. "No need to trouble her," you nod and reach out your hand towards the river. Will and power, they said. Well, you have the will and how much power can ordering a bunch of fish to swim closer to the shore take? At first, everything seem to be going well. The fishers gasp as the silvery shapes of fish start to be sighted, closer to the surface and grouping together.
"A-are you... You're doing that?" gasps one of the fishers, slack-jawed in astonishment. Sadly, as you...

As you're nursing your arm and your companions are gathering up the bits and pieces of flying fish, Nila emerges from the river and looks around in utter confusion. "What in the wide world even happened here?!"
After you explain what you tried to do and show her you arm, she sighs and shakes her head in sympathy. "Burnout. You tried to do too much too soon! You thought just because you can use magic you can jump in and start doing whatever you wished?" She smacks the palms of your...

Sorry but I have no idea what I'm doing. Maybe you could teach me?
>>44306338
Grab her wrist and apologize, we acted out of ignorance and a desire not waste her time. Ask her if she can correct that ignorance through teaching and tell the girl you love her when there's an appropriate moment. I mean, fuck, she's got our backs and is a good, albeit distant mom

the fuck is a lynx unit? are we talking something titan-sized or is this like the size of a crisis suit?

A regiment of cats.

He is wearing the original Mark I Tanker armor with its distinctive orange stripe and lack of the backwards facing protrusion common to the Mark I infantry helmets. Other than that, his armor is entirely white except for a large dark green spot on the outside of his right hand. Odd, you wonder what the significance of that is?
Before you can formulate a response, behind you calls out the distinctively deep voice of Mandalorian Crusader. "It was an honor to fight with you, sir. I would gladly follow you...

Another trooper beside him that you barely noticed speaks up. Though now that you have paid mind to him, you cannot help but notice that he stands a full head over any other trooper. His armor is completely lacking in coloration, but you severely doubt you would mistake him for any other clone.
"I," This must be Big. Suiting name. "would like, to listen to one, now." His speech is both halting and precise, and when he speaks you can see him motioning with his hands. Everything about him...

"Sorry, X." Phi motions to you. "I think I'll stick with the Lieutenant for now. You know how shinies can be at times, and we wouldn't want another butterbar incident again on our hands."
"Fair, fair." X turns to you a little too sharply before returning his attention to Phi. "Well then, tally ho!" He spins on his heel and bounds off in a random direction. Phi laughs quietly.

You are Brianna la Croix, journeyman necromancer, and a really great night has gotten very complicated, all of a sudden.
You can feel Brigette's - the Poet's - letter in your coat pocket, thick and suddenly very heavy. The fog the minstrel vanished into rolls back, leaving no sign of the beauty with the musical voice and those deep, almost pleading eyes.
You spare a glance for Amy and Nathan, and the two of them are looking at you in concern and confusion.
Gods, they have no idea....

Which Legion is best suited for such a scenario?
Every marine that was made on earth stayed loyal. Every marine found on the primarchs planet went traitor.
They all apply
Night Lords. Kurze didn't care about them if I recall.

Like Ahriman and Kharn rite?
So, how would a space leviathan work?
By space leviathan, I think of something HUGE, maybe our solar system long, or ten times this. A beast able to feed on stars and nebulas, so huge it as it's own atmosphere and can mess with the gravitational force of a solar system just by being too close. Something formidable enough to travel between galaxies.
Can whe imagine a titan while whe are but mites? Could such a thing exist without involving a major rape of physics?
That shit would be too big
>>44300957
>Could such a thing exist without involving a major rape of physics?
No, but I don't care. It's epic as fuck and any good space opera needs at least one.
I would have no idea what to do with it if it worked. It crushes planets and system like ants, what are you supposed to do against it? Seems awesome tho.

"For a second there I thought I was getting a threesome. Oh well, save it for my birthday".
"But your birthday is waaaay too far away" Ranlis teases, eliciting minor reactions from Al.

You head back to your place and play some super bombad racing for a bit, before you put on some of those neiomidian cartoons you love making Al sing the theme song to so much.
Al and Ranlis tend to ignore each other and only talk to you, which makes for a weird conversation, and there's only a few more force lightning's from Ranlis,...

What if the Shadow over Innistrad is Marit Lage?
Also, I feel kind of oblivious for not knowing this. I had assumed that Marit Lage was introduced in Coldsnap as a one-off throwaway neat card, but apparently she goes all the way back to fucking Ice Age. The Lovecraft reference is right there in the flavor text (referencing the famous line "in his house at R'lyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming") and as far as I know it's the earliest Lovecraft reference in MTG.
I hadn't even thought of that. That would be damn cool. But I still hope it's Baron Sengir.
How would Applegate's andalite empire fare in the 40K universe? On the ground, they seem to be rather intimidating individually compared to, say, the average guardsmen - he's with the centauroid body, the warrior noble mentality and the molecular tail blade (plus, their handheld shredders are obscenely powerful, possibly comparable to volkite equivalents). In space, their capital ships' main guns are capable of single-shot planet killing (via complete glassing, or the actual breaking apart of smaller planetoids) and have shields which can withstand SEVERAL shots...

I always find these 40k crossover threads to be among the saddest you can find on this board.
It has the same sort of mentality as all those My Little Pony crossovers, where these people don't really appreciate what kind of clashing mess results when you combine the franchise equivalent of grapefruit with just about any other fruit.
Really, you're not supposed to include grapefruit pieces in fruit salads. It just makes everything taste like bad grapefruit.

well judging by your description they'd fare well for a bit. Then they'd lose a battle eventually and they won't be able to recover from the losses. Repeat till extinction/hiding.
