Battlefleet Gothic: Armada is 13.20 USD cheaper, so you'd pay 26.79 USD + tax instead of 39.99 USD.

I got "remember me", for some shadowrun inspiration.

So /tg/, memes aside what is your honest opinion on Katanas? Like them? Hate them? Don't mind them?

Personally I actually ironically like Katanas, I don't feel like they can cut through plate steel or hell even real armor but I do think they're about as fun as most other non-cruciform swords

I don't mind them if the "canu cut through Steelu" and "Folded ovel hundled times" shit stays out.
Basically, if a katana is treated as appropriate for the setting in relation to other swords, I don't mind them.

>>47955362
I always feel like in a game magic swords should embody the idea of the form rather than the real thing. It makes it much more interesting when people are fighting with ideas shaped into weapons than just swords

Army of Princess Edition
We're currently working on Gen V

Here's the current worklog:
| Gen V |
-Army Upgrades Page

Discussion of the Towergirls CYOA, RPG, Setting, or Video Game welcome here!

Everyone welcome.

FAQ:
Q - What is Towergirls?
A /tg/ creation. Read more here.
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Tower_Girls

Q - How do I play?
A - It's a CYOA, there are no established mechanics for the rescue. All the pages to the game are in the imgur album linked in resources.

Q - Why aren't/are we we working on; Fan Gen II/Knights/combat mechanics/etc.
A - No. We recognize that spreading out our efforts is what originally killed the project. Accordingly, we're focusing on just one thing at a time and finishing them out.

Q - Hey, can we make a pricness about X fetish?
A - It generally comes down to what people like. Propose the idea and see if others want it.

Q - Is there a map/unified setting?
A - Nope. Though proposals have been made, nothing concrete has been created.

Q - Can I post fanart/fanfiction here?
A - Go right on ahead, just make sure it's within the global rules.

Okay, can someone explain kalpa to me

How does it work

What exactly gets """eaten"""? Mundus? Does that include the divines or just Nirn? Or is it all of Aurbis including all the anuic spirits of the Aetherius and the daedric princes and everything, but Anu and Padomay are eternal? And then they just do the whole shit with a Lorkhan-type thinking up another Mundus all over again every time

Interesting.

It really is a quite limited environment.
Maybe throw in some deep underground catacombs?
The sea receding every day until the lighthouse is a tower on the mountain that used to be the seabed?
Maybe the lantern is vital to light the darkness at night?

688KB, 2702x2092px
It is 157 years since the the Battle of Solferino, where the allied French Army under Napoleon III and Sardinian Army under Victor Emmanuel II (together known as the Franco-Sardinian Alliance) defeated the Austrian Army under Emperor Franz Joseph I. It was the last major battle in world history where all the armies were under the personal command of their monarchs, and the largest since the Battle of Leipzig in 1813. There were about 130,000 Austrian troops and a combined total of 140,000 French and allied Piedmontese troops. After the battle, the Austrian Emperor refrained from further direct command of the army.

The battle was a decisive engagement in the Second Italian War of Independence, a crucial step in the Italian Risorgimento. The war's geopolitical context was the nationalist struggle to unify Italy, which had long been divided among France, Austria, Spain and numerous independent Italian states. The battle took place near the villages of Solferino and San Martino, Italy, south of Lake Garda between Milan and Verona.

The confrontation was between the Austrians, on one side, and the French and Piedmontese forces, who opposed their advance. In the morning of 23 June, after the arrival of Emperor Franz Joseph, the Austrian army changed direction to counterattack along the river Chiese. At the same time, Napoleon III ordered his troops to advance, causing the battle to occur in an unpredicted location. While the Piedmontese fought the Austrian right wing near San Martino, the French battled to the south of them near Solferino against the main Austrian corps.

The Austrian forces were personally led by their militarily inexperienced 29-year-old emperor, Franz Joseph, and were divided into two field armies: 1st Army, containing three corps (III, IX and XI), under Franz von Wimpffen and 2nd Army, containing four corps (I, V, VII and VIII) under Franz von Schlick.

Song of Swords is a realistic fantasy tabletop RPG that draws inspiration from historical fechtbuchs, weapons and armor. Its combat system is fast 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. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.

Here's a .rar archive with the newest version of the rules as well as all related current working documents. At this time the latest version is v1.9.9:

The room might be empty, but the people who teach the game still browse the thread frequently. If you're looking to learn, post here in the thread. We also play Guy Windsor's card game Audatia in the room.

Man, we've been dead lately. Ah well. I'm in a fechty mood as of late, and since I am now free for about a week, I have time to run one. I'd like to run it Friday or Saturday. Anyone have a good idea for what exactly to run? I have a few ideas for scenarios, and I have some characters I've run that we can return to, Kal Amar and Sergeant Alder of the SMK come to mind (shame we killed Viko). Still, toss ideas at me.

Every faction is the good guys and every faction is the bad guys depending on how you play it and your point of views.

I really like how Infinity fluff feels real, and gives you people, characters and situations you can empathize with.

I play my NCA as super nationalistic millitary police, that keep on messing up their missions that they've probably done more to foster peace within the sphere than the damage they're trying to do.

>Why do you like to worldbuild?
I'm autistic.

>How [many] pages of lore/backstory do you have?
It fluctuates between several hundred and tens of pages. Currently revising everything back to the early pre-time period. The only thing that's still cannon is the origin of reality and it's current nature.

>What's a trivial, random fact about your world?
There's a bakery in Abalanny, Estonia that sells a pot pie with cottage cheese, gouda, and minced onion stuffing.

>What's something you need feedback on? Or, maybe you need an expert's opinion on a random subject?
So fucking much but I'm nowhere near my materials being presentable.
>>
>>47912435
>Why do you like to worldbuild?
It's a good way to keep myself busy. Also, I always enjoyed fantasy novels and the lack of information about the world beyond a few curcial bits annoyed me to no end, so it's a way of resolving my frustration about lack of information.

>How pages of lore/backstory do you have?
I don't know. I store everything in my head and only write something when someone asks me about my projects.

>What's a trivial, random fact about your world?
A few merchants from Old Jin are running a huge scam. Several noble families have lost big amounts of wealth due to this, but don't say anything for fear of losing their status.

>What's something you need feedback on? Or, maybe you need an expert's opinion on a random subject?
I need history books. Tons of them. About China, India, Korea, Tibet... Between the 3rd and 9th centuries preferably.

>Why do you like to worldbuild?
Because I have too many ideas and I'm afraid of seeing something I put this much mental effort into (thinking about whenever I have free time, essentially) disappear forever.

>How pages of lore/backstory do you have?
For most, maybe two or three A4s of size 12. For my largest, it's at least two or three dozen...

>What's a trivial, random fact about your world?
Every faction, regardless of their motives and stances, are being controlled in a chess-like manner by existential horrors from outside the universe, keeping humanity in a constant state of socio-political flux.

>>What's something you need feedback on? Or, maybe you need an expert's opinion on a random subject?
How do I generate the effort required to actually finish things? How do I learn to say 'good enough' when designing maps and thinking about excuses for fantastical setting-points?
