It is 838 years since the Battle of Montgisard was fought between the Ayyubids and the Kingdom of Jerusalem. The 16-year-old King Baldwin IV, seriously afflicted by leprosy, led an out-numbered Christian force against the army of Saladin. The Arab force was routed and their casualties were massive, and only a fraction managed to flee to safety.
Saladin had planned and invasion of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from Egypt. Learning of Saladin's plans, Baldwin left Jerusalem with only 375 knights to attempt a defense at Ascalon, but was stalled there by a detachment of troops...

As for that last one, PP has said that the schedule was originally for retailers, and it's been taken down to lighten the load on their website team, since they have more infrastructure in place to inform retailers of what's coming out.
I can almost believe it, if it weren't for their poor timing with the arguments and snarking between the forum-goers and some of their staff about the release schedule.

Of course anon. I'm the cutest one too.
In Borderlands could EXP Module upgrade Phase Pierce to do something like 'the amount of shots you can fire depends on the gun used, with sniper rifles only getting a single shot, while smg's can fire an entire clip off before you return to reality'? Could you get elemental effects on your phased shots, like how Maya ends up hitting all enemies nearby with all elements?

He spent the whole game on his phone posting shitty threads on a Taiwanese picture plank
Online game, That Guy successfully raped another player (pin/etc.). DM didn't fade to black.
His reasoning was, apparently, not wanting to DM anymore, but his autism prevented him from realizing he wouldn't be in the GROUP anymore for pulling that stunt, either.
That Guy got perma-banned from the chat.

Can I get a picture of a generic warrior guy wearing little/very crude armor and 2-3 of these shitty weapons?
Its supposed to show what a lvl 1 warrior looks like in my mind, using second rate equipment.
Requesting a skuzzy looking, middle aged Englishman in a bloodeborne-esque coat with a high collar, a suit, and a top hat. I'd like him to have a devilish grin and bad teeth, and for him to be holding a hand behind his back as if concealing something. Oh, and mutton chops. Glorious mutton chops.
Please and thank you!

Requesting two assassins with cherry shaped helmets/masks, one stands at 6'ft muscular, and is a close combat expert and has a green stem like object on top if the helmet and the other is 5'ft skinny and is a long ranged expert. They both wear the suit that's in the picture, the close ranged expert has a cane sword, and the long ranged carries a sniper rifle.

So someone in the last thread referred to a M113 as a 'Gavin'.
Not sure if trolling but as far as I know they were never called that, in the US Army they were know as an M113, a PC or just a 'Track'
The name 'Gavin' comes from one man's, lets just say passionate crusade to retain a piece of air deployable light armour. Look up 'Mike Sparks M113', fun reading.
>>43811992
It's ok to call Mike Sparks a fucking lunatic, anon.
Just started putting together a Zvezda 2S1 Gvozdika SPG.
Pretty good kit, goes together really easily and the detail seems pretty decent.
I'll be putting together two more of them and a pair of Shilkas tomorrow, plus a T-72 just because.
That gives me the core of a nice Soviet force for TY, alongside one BF army deal and the six T-55s that will pretend to be a T-72 as well.
I'll probably be taking some pics and reviewing the minis on my blog.

Stormcasts are really starting to grow on me.
While the game is still shitty, I feel the fluff could still be really good.
What is needed is more good quality art. Too much is shit and fails to capture a good tone for the setting. Additionally we only get pictures of models, not every Lord Celestant needs to be Vandus Hammerhand or "guy with hammer and sword with sowrd raised above his head."
>>43805424
I feel the same way.
I never really was a "hater" to start with, but I never really gave AoS its fair chance I think.
Now, after a few months of looking at what we got, it seems like a good bit of fun, and the models look really good.
One simply has to let go of the Warhammer feel, and embrace it for what it is, a totally new game with a totally new look.

Previous Bread: >>43703286 (OP)
Song of Swords is a realistic fantasy tabletop RPG that draws inspiration from historical fechtbuchs, weapons and armor. Its combat system is fun as balls and it can be used for both fantasy and historical/mundane settings.
Call of the Void is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Ironically it also has a very realistic combat system based around modern firefights, and can handle mundane or magical settings.
