I'm very partial to the DF-only-more-so-in-space spreadsheet game Aurora. It's made by a megasperg in order to provide believable battles for his numbercrunchy fiction, and it's basically a massive spreadsheet pretending to be a game.
Perfect /tg/ fodder, in other words!
The idea goes like this. It'd be something like a Builder Quest, with people taking the roles of the High Command of the starting race. You lot make the decisions about what to do next, design techs and so on (those who know the game will have a big advantage here) and my part...

This sounds awsome.
This sounds really cool actually.

Can't wait to purge everything that isn't us.
What kind of start are you planning?
Post your simple/small/stupid questions here. /tg/ Edition!
First time gm? Looking for a system? etc? Post em.
How often have your players bitched about enemies that fight intelligently as opposed to throwing themselves at them and simply attacking?
In Apocalypse World what's the difference between Going Aggro and Seize By Force? I have such a hard time telling them apart.

Did they finally do it?
Did they finally kill magic?

"Don't stare and gawk, boys! You have a fight to attend to!"
The recently-transformed birdman Nail screeches orders to his awe-staring bandits, noticing Irene having disposed of one of them while they were all distracted.
"B-but, boss... We didn't know you could do this!" One of them shakes his head in time to avoid a Bael's clutches.
"And I just found out recently! Get over it and, uh... what's your name again? I don't recognize you all from up here."
"It's... Jeimy, sir!"

And another time renewal.
I can go late tonight in exchange for starting late if I need to. I have caffeine and no regard for my sleep schedule.

The sight before you is fascinating for simply how different a person Vicki appears in this moment. But, now isn’t the time to dwell on such things.
You seal Ellie’s...

Upon returning to the palace, you head straight for the library where you place Ellie’s body in a nearby desk and search for Grievermillion.
You eventually find him in the center of the grand library with an immense cluster of parchment surrounding him on the floor. Izu sits next to him as they both look over a piece of writing together.
“Wouldn’t it be better if the points where like this?...” Izu traces on the parchment with his finger.
“The sharpness of the angles would be...

You stare at him with a quizzically.
“I just wanted to see how she’s been doing.” He looks down at his feet.
You remove a portion of your seal so that Ellie can speak, and are surprised not to instantly hear screaming of some sort. “You can already surmise how she’s been, but if you want to speak to her, then I won’t stop you.”
He nods and then waves farewell to Grievermillion before taking off to where you left Ellie.
“Your apprentice looks just like he did when he...

“Do we have this ritual stone in our possession?” You ask immediately.
Grievermillion shuffles through more papers at your request. “Palace inventory records show the stone suddenly disappearing after the war.” He looks up at you. “While I did not know what purpose it held then, I would have heard about any theft, so it must be lost somewhere within the palace.”
“Is there any writing about what this stone might look like?” You pace around, thinking about where it might’ve ended...

What would happen?
Awful new fanbase, /v/ tier threads, casualization, general degeneration and a sizable increase in sales of helium tanks

Given recent world events, it would probably snowball into a revived fascist movement, ultimately leading to WWIII and a unified Western Empire.
They could make a pretty awesome marketing campaign by building two small armies at the scale of their Stormcast HQ statue and play out a game in some key cities.
How would it change the setting is the Emperor of Mankind in Warhammer 40.000 was a Empress of Humankind instead?
Let's assume the whole Primarch project went as in canon.
For instance, would we still get a Heresy Happening? I mean, women in general are pretty much hardwired by nature to care more for their offspring than men. Would some motherly TLC stop Horus and company from going full Chaos?
Would Sisters of Silence/Sisters of Battle be more respected/feared? They would probably style all their wargear after the wargear of Her Imperial Majesty.
>>43729523
I doubt the Empress would be any more like an ordinary woman than the Emperor was like an ordinary man. When you're an immortal being with godlike powers who has lived for tens of thousands of years, that identity inevitably defines you much more than gender.
Things would have gone almost exactly the same way, up to and including the Heresy. The Imperial cult might be a bit different, but even that would likely just be an aesthetic change.

Somehow, somewhere, incest happens
But apart from that and a bit more meaningless drama here and there, everything runs the same
Oh, we can't have a lady putrefy on a throne, she will just "sleep" on a comfier deathbed

Oh look... It's this thread again.
So, I'm planning to run a 5e game on roll20 soon. Sort of a sword-and-sorcery style campaign with a lot of class restrictions. Before that, though, I want to flesh out my setting.
I decided completely fleshing out a continent's worth of locations and history was a bit extreme, so I decided to create a micro-continent that was once the center of a great empire that spread across a nearby continent.
So I've created a timeline for the micro-continent, fleshed out the regions a bit, made a hex map for it, and decided which classes/races fit into the...

Class restrictions? In 5E? PC customization is already pretty limited and what exists isn't particularly exciting. Why would you do this?
>>43729490
5e was pretty much designed to be underpowered D&D, you don't need to restrict more.
