I spent two hours arguing with my sister over if Degenesis is racist. I think it's just the fact that the game portrays races a bit oddly, and that racism is just a fact of the game worlds highly divergent races. Her opinion was that the game desingers were just plain racist and that's why they portray a few races in a poor light.
What do you think /tg/? And Degenesis General I guess.

There is no racism in degenesis
Racism exists in the game in the tribalism sense.
The world is butt-fucked so mankind has gone back to what it has done for optimum survival for tens of thousands of years: congregate with those most like themselves.
Inclusion and tolerance in the "everyone gets along and is treated equally regardless of color, culture, etc" is something that has only been widespread for maybe what? 60 years? 60 years out of the 80,000 that homo sapiens have been running around. It seems perfectly logical that when you have a complete breakdown of civilization and all...

Does anyone have the Degenesis Rebirth PDFs? I've wanted to take a look at it but I can't really find anything about it.
Why do so many people here in /tg/ don't like skirmish wargames?
Is it because the really low model count? Is it because you don't think they're strategic? Is it because you like Warhammer/40K too much?
Not trying to bait or get a 40k hate thread or anything, just really asking for your honest opinions.
I myself have played a LOT of wargames, from WHF, 40K, Flames of War, Field of Glory, Infinity and Warmahordes to SoBaH, LOTR SBG, Battle Companies, Mordheim, etc. And I find that whenever someone starts a thread about skirmish-level games,...

And also, following on this question or topic, what do you feel is the IDEAL number of miniatures AND units in a game?
For example, Warhammer 6th edition usually had around 80-120 minis per army, but around 8 units (talking about 1500-2000 points). Nowadays it has around the same number of minis, but MUCH less units, sometimes I see people with 4-5 units in 2000 points games.
And also, how do you like your minis organized in your games? I suppose it has a lot to do with the 'genre' of the...

Bumping with some images of skirmish wargames
When you're playing low unit count games you're often relying a lot on not getting fucked over by the dice and losing a unit you really needed 5 mins in.
It's like how bows were in the lotr skirmish games(the older rules anyway I haven't played in a long time). Fucking useless in the hands of most races but once every hundred games those goblin archers would accidentally kill Aragon on turn 2 and make the other player fling his models off the table.
The other problem is terrain, skirmish games tend to rely on the idea there will be things on the table to get in the way of LOS that you need to negotiate but the average player isn't going to just have mountains of stuff at the right height for it. You're often just going to be flinging down whatever trash you have to hand most of which will either be 5 times the size of the models or a 5th of the size. If you want good terrain you either spend ages building it or shell out for the stupidly expensive premade stuff on the market.

Literally the most banned backstory ever because every motherfucker who does it just wants to sneak in benefits to their PC.
Fuck everyone who does this.
