Okay, so rumor has it that the IOM has decided to finally send not just the Space Marines, but the SOB AND the assassins after him...
The real question is... Why? What the hell did he do?
Is it because he completely deciphered the Imperial war doctrine?
Is it because he has never been defeated by humanity and is responsible for the loss of many human worlds as a result?
Is it because he controls a human world as part of the Enclaves?
Did he steal the Grand Inquisitors teddy bear? Lord Binky Bearington?
TELL ME /TG/...what did he do!?
He's alive, the Imperium finds this incredibly offensive.
More to the point they probably don't know he's a separate entity from the Tau empire so part of their invasion of the pricks is to kill him and his enclaves.
>>43520222
>they probably don't know he's a separate entity from the Tau empire
his very introduction was a report from a rogue trader telling the inquisition he was a breakaway faction to the empire with a shady reason and something they should be investigating
Given how much his original fluff has been retconned I'm sure that may have changed since, but that would make me rather upset.
>>43520222
yeah but not Officio Assassinorium offensive. Usually that is an inside-job level of "I really fucking hate that guy"
is the Ecclesiarchy cool with lesbian Sisters of Battle? or is that considered heresy?
>>43520121
Wouldn't homosexuality fuel Slaanesh?
>>43520121
Who knows? Maybe? Yes? No? Do you seriously think GW would write Sister of Battle fluff now?
>>43520132
That's not how excess works anon.
>>43520121
Sisters don't take vows of chastity as far as i remember. And in an all-female force they might not have other ways to get off some steam. It might differ from order to order but i don't think anyone would really frown upon it as long as it won't interfere with their duties.

"But why GURPS?"
1) The splatbooks/worldbooks are universally written by people who know what they're talking about. The Fantasy book is written by archaeologists and historians, the Space book is written by astrophysicists, the Guns book is written by gun experts, etc. The factual mistakes are few and far between, and almost always acknowledged later. They give great advice on how to make believable worlds, how FTL affects society, how magic changes warfare, how real supernatural elements change secret societies... or how to ignore all realism and make whatever setting you want in a way that players can't take advantage of. They're great reads, even if you don't use the system.
2) GURPS has rules to handle anything. You don't need to use them all (why bother with rules for asphyxiating in a vacuum in a game about biker gangs?) but they're there. So if a game doesn't go where you expect, and your party of adventurers buy a wagon and start managing a merchant caravan company, there are books to support that style of play in a systemic way, integrated with the core rules in a way that makes sense. This also makes it great for crazy blends of game. Dungeonpunk with automatic firearms? Yes.
3) GURPS by default uses "heroic realism". This is when the odds on the heroes' sides but reality doesn't bend for them. Two bullets will knock a human unconscious (but not immediately kill him - this is fairly realistic) but hitting a moving target more than 100m away in a firefight is hard as hell. It suits games that go for a realistic or gritty feel and gives a break from the slightly cartoony damage sponges in games like D&D but can be customised with optional rules to change the feel from "Fuck You, There Are No Heroes and the World is Shit" right up to "The Heroes are Good and Always Triumph Over Evil". Incidentally, what makes it heroic realism also makes it the best game on the market to play a game about Operators Operating Operationally

Age: 731
Location: Planet Banassa
Information: Saiyan forces have taken Planet Banassa. The Arcosians have arrived and, true to their word, rewarded the Saiyans for their hard work with wealth and technology. However, celebrations have been cut short as an alien calling himself Frieza has arrived on the scene.
Welcome to Saiyan Quest. This takes place shortly after the war against the Tuffles, as the Saiyans look for more foes to battle in the absence of their old enemies.
Voting will operate on a first to five system, at least for the time being.
Dialogue is allowed to be added to votes, as are actions (though I'll ignore what I consider shitposting)
During battles, options will usually have a number assigned to them. After that vote has won, players will roll a d100, and have three chances to match or beat that number.
If a 100 is rolled, it is considered a crit success (unless 100 was the number you had to match).
If a 1 is rolled, it is a crit failure, regardless of whether or not the other two rolls are high enough to succeed.
If, during a battle, players want to attempt a writein action, that is allowed, but I am the one who will assign the number to it, so use caution
You're a young male Saiyan who fought in the war with the Tuffles. You are an average fighter for now, but have the potential of one of the greatest warrior races to roam the universe flowing through your veins. There is no limit to what you can accomplish through blood, sweat, and tears.

You've just witnessed over a dozen Saiyan Warriors being destroyed in a mere instant by the alien known as Dodoria.
Dead silence surrounds you as the Saiyans and Arcosians look on in terrified disbelief. Frieza and the green-haired alien smirk, while Dodoria chuckles to himself.
"I trust that will discourage any further outbursts," Frieza comments. "In any case, back to the matter at hand. I wish to know how the Saiyans and Arcosians were capable of defeating not only the Banassans, but my own soldiers. The Frieza Force is feared throughout the universe, and even my lowest soldiers are no pushovers."

C
I don't think King Vegeta would like us to chime in right now.
Also we've displayed an astonishing level of self control for a Saiyan in the past so staying silent seems in character

You stand outside the Pink Delight, the only connection between the victims you have discovered so far. Maybe they had favourites in this blood-whore house, maybe there's more to it than meets the eye.
You stand just across the street from the large explicit holo advertising what the Pink Delight has to offer, your friends are with you and its late at night. You have been investigating the murders of various vampires across the hive, apparently by dust ghosts, except...dust ghosts don't go inside buildings, nor should they be able to cross salt lines, your hand grips the bag of salt in your pocket reflexively. All of you are carrying some, just in case.
In the distance you can hear the sounds of the dust ghosts howling, they're getting closer.
The few people out on the streets don't seem bothered, but then they've lived in the Hive all their lives, they won't know what they're hearing.
Rainya and Dev know, and Lirael and Kae know what to expect. They all turn to you and make suggestions.
“You know how to deal with Dust Ghosts right?” says Kae “a line of salt or something?”
Rainya disagrees “If they'll go in buildings I don't think salt will stop them.”
Dev suggests caution “lets hide” he says “maybe they're after new victims, if we watch what happens, maybe we can follow them, or at least figure out why they're doing this.”
Lirael wants to take a more direct approach “I bet you can beat some weak ghosts sis” she says loyally “hit them until they tell you what they're doing.”
What do you do?
>Draw a circle of salt around the group
>Head inside the Pink Delight (or another building?)
>Hide, watch to see what the ghosts do
>Confront the Dust Ghosts
>Other (?)

You walked around in the town to clear your mind. Your nostrils caught a familiar scent. This scent lead you to Jetto's shack. Skulls, red paintings and other decorations of the previous owner were gone. Instead, you found a lot of incenses scattered around the shack. Every single one was carefully lit. There were some litters scattered near the shack. You would have loved to attend this grand opening.
No signs were erected ,yet. But you might be interested on whatever they were selling.

Has anyone else read the Star Wars ring theory? I'm not sure how much of it was just bullshitted but I almost want to believe now
>>43519580
are you talking about xwing or the RPG?
You are a normal, healthy 16 year old male, and for the first time in your life, your parents have elected to entrust you with the task of watching over your home for two days and nights while they go on a trip for their anniversary.
They leave money for food, as well as an emergency number to call if things get completely out of hand. Calling it would mean giving up on your challenge. Other than that, you are ostensibly the only guardian present in the house.
You must now keep the house in order, as well as care for your four younger sisters, ages 13, 12, 8, and 1. If they are healthy and happy when your parents return, you will receive not only praise, but your father has promised to buy you your first car! Still, it might be a shame to let this opportunity go to waste...
It is Friday Night, 5pm. Your parents are gone, and you stand in the living room alone. Your sisters are healthy and content.
>
Ask what the sisters would like for dinner. We should start planning out what we're going to make.
Ask them what they'd like to eat and put on the latest cartoon movie for them to watch. Then check up on the toddler.
>>43519317
>>43519347
You search the house for your younger siblings. You find the baby fast asleep in her crib, as expected. The other three are spread about the house.
The eldest is texting her friends on the sofa while trashy reality tv plays. You ask her what she'd like to eat, but her only preference is something with beef.
The second is sitting at her desk in her bedroom, sketching unsavory art based on her favorite anime. She tells you she will only eat hamburgers.
The second youngest is at the computer in the den, playing video games. She wants pasta.
You think you have some staples in the pantry, but if worse comes to worse you made need to head to the grocery store.If you'd prefer multiple choice, let me know

If possible, let's do this on a serious note. Probably not possible, but still.

Will o wisp with 20 levels in wizard
Absolute immunity to spells which allow spell resistance except magic missile and maze. Natural invisibility. Give him a lot of spell mastery feats so that he doesn't need a spellbook, and plenty of crazy metamagic feats (fell spell, energy admixture, quicken)
>>43519156
Well, I was not asking on metagame level (more sybolic), but Will o wisp seems a very interesting choice. Reminds me a bit on demilich. "Hurr durr its just a floating skull".

*sound of crickets chirping*
Interresting. Will have to keep an eye out for this.
Sell me on the setting SENPAI. What's so good about it?
How do you feel about settings where gamisms are rendered as a natural component of the setting?
Slaying monsters might expose some sort of mystical energy that gets absorbed by the people who fought it, though the people might not call this energy "XP." It might even go a step further, with some form of currency being or appearing within the monster.
Adventurers have a magical barrier that protects them from harm, though it weakens with each hit they take until they finally are knocked unconscious. They recognize each other's levels, can calculate exactly how many times a day they can use an ability, and can sift through collections of options in order to select what they'll take when they advance.
Immersion breaking? Reserved for cheesy parodies? Or is it possible to create a serious setting where the more abstract aspects of games are recognized within the world?
I actually like that in some animes, but I'm not sure how to feel about in a game. I think it could be fun, if only for some laughs. Makes me think of the New World as a setting in Overlord.
>>43518693
It can be fun, in an occasional tongue-in-cheek thing.
One of my favourite parts of KOTOR 2 is they do refer to how killing things makes the main character stronger - and that's why all the Jedi Masters are fucking horrified of you. What sort of monster are that murder makes you stronger?
>>43518693
I've seen it used well in KoToR 2.A lot of the gamisms are revealed to be semi-unique to you because you carry a wound in the force with you that causes a lot of odd effects.People will point out to you that it is extremely not normal for people to just abandon their lives to fight to the death at the command of someone they just met, or for someone to be able to grow stronger by feeding on death, and that it all makes you deeply weird and threatening.
I generally don't like it, because it's a fairly big change to how the world works that's rarely properly accounted for in the setting, but it's not impossible to make something good with the concept.
