"...Say, Amata."
In the intimacy of this moment, and considering everything, you weight carefully your chances.
If you inform Amata of this, she would normally flip out. Probably get really, really mad.
But maybe, considering the moment... maybe, considering the atmosphere... Maybe, just maybe, this is the best time to talk to her about it without her overreacting.
You take a deep breath, cross your fingers, and start: "...There's something I need to tell you."
"What's the problem? You got Tia pregnant?"...

Maka, an exiled noble Exalted as a Zenith-caste Solar. Queen of Gem, now ruling the western island of Tianna. You have gathered a vast amount of allies and friends, and defeated every threat to Tianna up to now.
You recently discovered that Tianna is actually an artificial island, built around a First Age Titan: an almighty flying fortress. Your forces have crushed the Bodhisattva Anointed by Dark Water, a Deathlord who tried to usurp its power for himself.
Now you have built a solid power base, and worked hard to draw the...

I find it hilarious that i thought it was Touhoufag, only to find out its worse in that it is some weird council straight out of a conspiracy theory.

Why do you often post weird progressive drow women trying to force their new age values and covering up skin. Tis an offense to lolth and it destroys traditional drow family values. How will people be blinded by lust and betray each other, or set a good example for their kids to seduce their enemies to...

So how is it ? And what are the cards for ?
>>43605320
>So how is it?
It's pretty good, the alternating activation's are a nice change of pace from my time playing 40k, feels more fluid and dynamic.
>And what are the cards for?
The card decks are for adding new variables to the game, either by affecting the environment on the table, giving bonus or penalties to the models, or dropping down passive/active threats onto the table like Imperial's Offensive and Defensive sentry turrets.
>>43605493
I see. How does it compare to Infinity ? Are the cards a must ? Any pages beside the official one or forum I could look up the gits of it ?
>>43605699
Compare about what?
Price? they are mostly cheap to build and even cheaper than infinity in term of per model, but maybe because its resin
Game? Well, it comparably balance and their d20 system are working well, but cannot say much since they have different gameplay
Sculp? Bretty gud hombre, some of the minis are comparable and more metal than infinity, but their women lines are not so much
The cards are mandatory but you can play basic games without cards

I have a quick question which I'm hoping /tg/ might be able to help with, no one else seems to!
What would be the best way to launch a helicopter from a modern airship? I'm trying to get "realistic" or "believable" ideas, such as side ramps/hatches which fold down/slide open to allow the helicopter to taxi out and take off, or possibly a top section on the airship - I don't know how modern construction methods would work with this.
Basically, I'm writing a novel set in a slightly alternate now where airships and helicopters...

>taxi out and take off
....are you talking about helicopters or planes?
>>43605626
Probably he means helicopters, but they can definitely taxi, if they've got wheels on the bottom like some military birds do.
Uhh, your picture is literally the only way it works.
Helicopters need to go up from a flat stable surface.
Also you keep saying "airship", but it sounds like what you really mean is a zeppelin/balloon shit. If you have helicopter technology, there's no reason to use shitty balloons anymore. People would just build a big fucking helicopter/helicarrier like in the picture you posted, and have smaller helicopters on top of it.
Either that or make silly Final Fantasy style airships that are just boats with helicopter parts strapped to them, but are not realistic.
Hello, /tg/
I've stumbled here on this picture and decided to make a quick excel spreadsheet based on it. It's pretty basic (and there still might be typos made by text recognition software), but formulas adjust for "choose two" and "choose three" options.
Here's the link

Just keep pressing F9 to generate your damn settings.
Nice spreadsheet-fu, OP.
Planet does not tilt. Two or more moons. Full grassland, low precipitation, low humidity, one pathogen, multiple prey (mostly lizards), egyptian antiquity, precolonized south asia. Elves. Common, weak supernatural power. No other civs. Value convenience, medicinal economy, african folk religion, republic government, wildlife as defining feature, overall theme "encouraging disaster", campaign starts "You gave a vision", religious cult leader as enemy.
So, Elves who value convenience, economy based on medicinal value,...

/tg/ there's something I'm wondering and I'd like it if you could clear it up for me.
Why are there so many different OSR/retroclone games?
I don't mean that in the sense of "don't like what I don't like", but - they're all based on basic D&D, right? Isn't that too limited a base for there to be so many clones of it? It's like if there were 20 remakes of A New Hope. Yeah, it's a good movie, but surely you eventually run out of ways to remake it.
Am I missing something? Is there actually a huge...

It's the system that most people are the most familiar with so they'll try to fit a game into the system rather than learn a new system.
>>43604685
I get that, but you'd only need a handful of retroclones for that. What difference between them necessitates having so many?
I feel the same way OP, though I've never done more than flick through retroclone pdfs.
Seems to me they just like juggling around the stats and modifiers. So you could probably just do it as a setting\modification of most any d20 system BUT you're much more likely to get noticed if you publish as your own system, so there's that.
In this thread we post any cool and inspirational art. If you got a request, make it.

I just saw this image and was inspired. It shows a simple existential dilemma that we've all faced in our lives.
Just look at the guy's posture, he REALLY needs to take a shit. Now look in front of him, there isn't a working toilet for miles and miles. I wouldn't want to be in his shoes.

Help a fellow anon here and tell me what is the best way to start on Warhammer 40k? I have played the dawn of war series and am trying to get into the table top game with a couple of friends. Are Necrons a good set to start off with or are there better factions?
>>43604309
Pick a faction that you like the most... be prepared to lose a lot.
Personalize your army so win/lose you enjoy taking it out for a spin.
Start with a battle box or something, and add to it as you feel like.
>>43604343
I'll go with Necrons then.
Is there a particular set up you like using with any of the factions?
>>43604343
>Pick a faction that you like the most... be prepared to lose a lot.
Unless you pick necrons
>>43604441
The first question I would ask is what kind of army are you looking for? How important is being competitive or are you ok with an army this is fun but will almost never win?
this is how I BBEG.

What method of rolling for initiative does /tg/ prefer, and why? A D&D like "highest to lowest declares and performs an action in order"? An OWoD/Exalted like "highest declares last but performs first"? Something else?
>>43604069
I honestly have never found one I liked, and I wish I could because initiative is one of the biggest roadblocks to me enjoying combat in any RPG. I have never played one where I liked the fighting, only ones where I didn't hate it and Savage Worlds, where the whole point is to get it over with as quickly as possible.
This is bad, because one of my "lazy DMing" tricks is to throw a fight at the party to stall for time. My players never have their shit together when it's not a fight they...

Do the Bolt Action method throw dice into a bag and draw who gets to go next?
No possible way to increase your initiative but if you like dynamic and the unknown this could be fun. A player could have two consecutive turns or have a gigantic gap.
