What if one of the intial colony fleets sent out from terra got put off course in the warp. Winding up on the other end of the galaxy along with their entire stc database. And this section of the galaxy was unraped by warp storms during the age of strife. The biggest kickers would be their extended access to their stc database and their men of iron not going killroy.
Now the real questions to ask is how did they prevent psykers from ripping holes into the immaterium. And how they stopped their men of iron from going killroy, well the answer to the first question is somewhat simple. The first thing is the men of iron didnt go killroy the second is that they started placeing human brains in them coginator style.
The psykers would have had to be either killed right off the bat or suppresed to such a degree to be useless to demons. Which is harder than it sounds.
So what would the imperium do upon encountering this small yet powerful enclave of dark age of technology humans? Their thousands of years of technological advancement and their scores of men of iron would try the imperium greatly. Especially if they would be strong enough to hold off the ork invasions for so long. The biggest issue I could see cropping up is the humans worshipping the men of iron as their god protectors.

If it's at all new or different, it's heresy. Purge purge purge purge purge.
>But what if it might make things better for the imperium
Then it's contrary to the grimdarkness of 40k and must be PURGED.
>but
PUUUUURRRRRRGGGGGE!!!

Steam roll it.
>>47974046
Could they even manage to purge dem doe? Thats the real question, away from the astronomicons light would make it much harder to PURGE these heretical pretty people.

Hey, /tg/. New DM getting the opportunity to DM DnD 4e. any advice would be great.
please
>>47972749
Get out while you still can.
>>47972928
i've only really heard one thing about 4e. that it plays like a hack n' slash vidya. could you explain whats wrong with 4e?
Okay
Going to be running a game in the next couple months in Portland OR.
Premise is that in addition to the existing complexities of 2e there is going to be an economy, inflation, multiple currencies, futures trading, scarcity caused by dragon attacks, or invading hordes.
In addition to traditional alignments there are going to be banks and corporate loyalties. (Sponsored wizards who you can hire for a percent of your dungeon haul?) Free markets are a beautiful thing!!
1. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions as you are an insideous and creative lot.
2. I am going to be generating 1500 3x5 cards with random events, and 200 with nonrandom, BBEG planned events, and having them come up on rolls (sometimes the players will know about them, sometimes they won't, they are mainly for moving the economy, and economic indicators, things like bridges washing out) does that seem like a dick DM move?
Thanks.
Bump?
>>47972434
> Premise is that in addition to the existing complexities of 2e there is going to be an economy, inflation, multiple currencies, futures trading, scarcity caused by dragon attacks, or invading hordes.It's called a trainwreck.
How are you going to pull it off?
> 1. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions as you are an insideous and creative lot.
Yeah. Thought so.
Another question: do you or you players have any economic education?
Please don't tell me you're going to be basing item prices off the wealth in the 2e books
You got some? Share yours! I like seeing all kinds of weird misprints and so on

With the US Dollar holding at 1.37 to the Pound Sterling who's making some big Forgeworld orders?
I don't see them honoring that change. Just because the trade value changes doesn't mean suddenly everything you buy is going to be cheaper in two days. After all even Paypal is still at $0.70 to a Pound
>>47971681
Forge World doesn't have to honor shit, they bill in pounds sterling and your credit card company processes the currency conversion. There's usually a nominal surcharge, up to 3% of the total transaction, depending on the card; some cards for international travelers specifically do not and these are the cards you want to buy your Forge World with.
As for me, I'm waiting until the pound hits $1.25 and buying a Warlord Titan.
>>47971653
>With the US Dollar holding at 1.37 to the Pound Sterling
It's not doing that though
This is just a guess, and a long shot at that, but... something sort of bothered me the other day when I was looking at past, present, and future sets of magic. Recently the Eldrazi have taken the role as the major antagonist in the storyline and have made a fairly large impact overall. Now since WotC has decided to make blocks only 2 sets a piece, it seems like they are cramming a lot of story into a single block. Again, this is just speculation, but what if they decide to stop the whole 'jumping around from the viewpoint of planeswalker to planeswalker', and start to stick with a steady perspective of a group of characters, i.e. Jace, Gideon, Chandra, Nissa, and Ugin? If for some reason this might be true, wouldn't that also mean that the Eldrazi could possibly linger into another block, or even two? Perhaps even future blocks, if left unresolved? I was looking at this set symbol for Aether Revolt, which is the second set in the upcoming Kaledesh block. To you all, does this symbol seem at all reminiscent of an Eldrazi? From an aesthetic standpoint, what is the one thing the Eldraz titansi all have in common? Tentacles. And the first thing I saw when looking at this symbol were tentacles. I also see how this could be a flower or... something, but I guess it just caught me off guard. What do you all think? Will we be seeing Eldrazi in near future sets, or am I just a crazy person?
>>47971336
Also, share what kinds of cards, characters, and major plot points that you think will be in the next block.
the new sets will have reprints of the basic lands
and get this
DIFFERENT ART
so save up some money if you wanna get on that before the price goes down
trust me im the president and ceo of wotc
>>47971336
>but what if they start to stick with a steady perspective of a group of characters, i.e. Jace, Gideon, Chandra, Nissa?
This is already happening. Expect at lest 1/2 blocks to follow at least one member of the Gatewatch. Most old characters will start interacting more and more with them too.
That doesn't mean we'll follow the Gatewatch all the time like we followed the Weatherlight. But they'll be the main protagonists of the narrative from this point onwards.
Could the Eldrazi linger into another block, or even two? Perhaps even future blocks, if left unresolved?
Emrakul dies / is neutralized this block. But we might yet witness another Rise of the Eldrazi in the far future. Absolutely not in the next two blocks though.
Finally, that set symbol does not look Eldrazi in the least. It's clearly emulating both a lotus-like flower and a flame because Pyromancy is going to be a key plot point in the Kaladesh block.
>>47971358
Chandra is pretty much confirmed as the protagonist of Kaladesh. Other people that might show up:
>Gideon
>Tezzeret
>Jaya Ballard

So, in a lot of anime/manga, the main character always to have some big plate of material strapped to their thigh as protection. Is there any historical basis to this? Would it actually work? Wouldn't you want protection on the inside of your thigh instead, where a very important vein is?
>>47970645
Can you post more examples?

So do you reckon it's possible to run a game of Human occupied Landfill?

Satanic trips say it's possible.
It's possible, but it likely would only be fun in terms of morbid curiosity, like watching a trainwreck.

Are there any good books with Tieflings as the main character?
>>47968125
I haven't read the books myself, but Brimstone Angels series has Tiefling sisters as the main characters:
http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Brimstone_Angels_series
>>47968716
I've read them. They're nothing super special. If you like the other forgotten realms stuff you'll probably enjoy them. But don't go into it expecting a masterpiece.

Are they set in the train-wreck of Forgotten Realms that was hand-waved for 4th edition?

>"And they will know no fear"
Fear is an emotion created by millions of years of natural selection to make beings aware of and assess risks, dangers and hazards. It's function is legitimate. A being which pays no heed to environmental risks and hazards (particularly in a hazardous environment such as a battlefield) will have a reduced survival quality. That fear carries risks in of itself, such as being locked in a cycle of fear which leads to panic and an inability to function, does not negate the utility of the drive. No more than the risk of a steam engine's boiler exploding due to a massive pressure buildup negates it's utility. Deleting fear is akin to removing a steam engine's governor or a car's radiator.
>>47967561
Space marines are all defective because they are made out of retarded emp's Turk sperm. They're basically cucks for sand people and they want big emp's gene seed inside them.
"and they won't be impelled by their base instincts overcoming their ideals and training" just wasn't as catchy.
>>47967561
It doesn't mean they're retarded or suicide runners, OP. They know how invaluable even a rookie marine is and they put a lot of prep into any conflict they enter. Just as they don't wonder around a space hulk thinking they're invincible. I know there are fanatical chapters out there but there wouldn't be any chapters left if they generally didn't recognize a bad situation and bugged out.
