Has there been any thought or work put into trying to bring the concept of Malal into Age of Sigmar?

Sets of Homebrew rules have been made for 40k and WHFB, so I've been wondering if it's possible to create a version of AoS rules for his fanmade units or hell, maybe even create new units to fit into AoS's lore.

So /gurpsgen/ I'm thinking about running a GoT/SoIaF game that's partially intended to introduce some new players to detailed harshly realistic GURPS combat.
Any advice?
>>47466804
Savage violence is a pretty damn solid way to play GURPS. I'd suggest 150 points with a generous 70 point disadvantage limit, but make them take at least one powerful enemy in common that could kill the fuck out of them if they are careless or stupid or unlucky.
Show them a few simple templates, like Big Strong Brute, noble swordsman, clever lady with sword, and doorstop.
>>47466804
GURPS dose single duels pretty damn well. Throw them into one early to give a combat tutorial and some brutal fucking violence.
How would you stat the ability to return to an earlier point in your life, like loading/saving in a video game? Basically:
>upon saving, you create a set point in time and space that you can return to later
>upon loading, you return to that point in time and space, with the same items you had when you saved, but retaining your current set of memories
>you can only ever have one save file
>no one else "remembers" anything from the future,...

You have, counting the rest of today, two days left before work is done on the Vapor Cannon and three left on the commons room. You still haven't solved the murder, Tabby is still working on her "condition" and recently you learned that the government has mentioned your theft, though with very little elaboration.
It's around early afternoon, all your crew are aboard doing their own thing and you've got time to kill. What would you like to do?
>>47583028
I can't remember what we were doing.
Do we still have to stick around, or can we go? If we do, I guess we can do those flight lessons.
>>47583137
You had just finished speaking to Kakei about trade, the murder and Neil/the triad. You can go where you please, but it'll be two more days before the Beast is done being worked on, so it'll have to stay in the city for now.
Also, your hangar hasn't been set up to launch your planes yet.
What are some valid criticisms against Age of Sigmar besides "old is good, new is dumb"?
>>47578307
The game is actually fun.
Just needs a system to balance games.

It's more expensive than buying the old one second hand.

What are your vampires like?
>>47573665
No such thing.
>>47573665
Scary, gross, and creepy. Subject to a lot of old-timey folk rules that limit their power, but you still don't want to fuck with them
Pools of blood containing the bound souls of sorcerers who wished to attain greater power and immortality through binding their essence to the most arcane humour of the body. As blood was never meant to contain a soul, their pool gradually decays and requires replenishment. Several thousand years after the original ritual, the vampire brood lords over an planet-spanning darkened city dedicated to farming humanity, their bodies an amalgam of dead flesh and hydraulic cybernetics which their blood flows into.
What's your favourite published setting and why? Doesn't have to be D&D.
Personally I like the Realms. The sheer amount of published material means that the lore is plentiful. You can run pretty much anything you want. Players also seem to enjoy the familiarity of it.
Honestly? The setting of Otaria, in the Magic: the Gathering novels between Odyssey and Scourge.
It's basically remembered nowadays only for being a clusterfuck thanks to WotC switching up authors for every book, but reading those novels is what got me into fantasy in the first place, so the RPGs I run tend to have that Otarian flavor, even if a little.
>>47569074
Homebrew all the way. Whenever I use published settings, I feel like that person who's taking someone else's work and making deviantart-tier fanfictions about it and it feels bad man. I know that's the POINT, but it still feels bad.
>>47569074
I really like Dark Sun. It feels a lot like Robert E. Howard's Conan and Hyborea stuff, and is written for a system that I know. I like the twist on how reckless use of magic drains life, that sorcerer-kings are really powerful people your adventurers should not fuck with in the beginning, and the different take on traditional fantasy races. Not to mention how each sorcerer-king's city is modeled around a different ancient civilization.
I tried running a game for a group, but they got bored because...

I want to make a top-tier pauper gauntlet. What are the must have decks? Looking for around 12 total to start with.
Sup nerds. Been considering getting into pauper with a few buddies. My are Elves and/or Vampires viable? I'm sure Elves must be, but pauper Vamps would be neat too.
Many thanks.

When we last left off, I had somehow managed to improvise a bomb out of a waterproof electric car battery to kill a bunch of fish.
Before that. I found this Raft Otter standing next to me in one of the rooms. He seems to like me at least, can't say I return it.
And even before that, I got trapped on this base that I was supposed to salvage. My co-worker is dead. There are shitloads of angry monsters swimming around. Most of the base is underpowered and not working....

We certainly gave the Otter something to eat that's for sure.
Secord's been a little quiet since then. I'd have imagine he'd have at least seen what the hell happened through the ceiling camera.
Oh well. What's our next stop, voices in my head?
the bomb has been deployed, yes? and all the fish in that... improvised lake are dead, right? in that case it's time to put on the re-breather and any other swimming gear you have and go for a swim. maybe the otter will build a nice corpse-raft from all the fish in here.

I am interested in investing some extra money into a nice MTG deckbox and playmat so I felt like it would a good opportunity to create a thread discussing the peripherals you use while playing. Did you spend a little extra $$ to add a little bling to your game? Especially interested in custom goods/artwork (even if the artwork is borrowed from another artist).
Dice & life counters
Deckboxes & playmats, Card sleeves
Cases and carry bags
>>47567857
Never.
Though I did find a nice old wooden box to put all my KD cards in because the originally stupid huge box isn't big enough.
nifty 3-sided die
I spend a little extra money to get a Deck Builder's Toolkit when I need a new box for holding multiple decks.
>playmat
I will never understand this. To me it just sounds like a scam. One of the greatest scams in the world considering how many get sold.
I got this Captcha wrong.
I need some /tg/-approved fantasy anime (or any animated show), but most of what I come across is too edgy or contrived.
I just what something basic, where the heroes are heroes, the castles are old, and wizards wear pointy hats. Doesn't have to be purely D&D European fantasy, but I'll take anything that feels like an honest to god proper noblebright adventure.
>>47543132
For an example of an anime I did like that's not generic European fantasy, I recently finished Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Love the fantasy designs and the action was good, only thing holding it back was the harem shit.

Holy wow it's been a while.
Since summer's coming again in just a few short weeks we might be able to get together and reboot our last game, or start a new one, so let's look forward to that.

I'm planing on GMing this on summer and come back with storytime.
Welcome everyone, new and old players alike! This is Tundra civ, a civ thread series in a fictional, non-fantasy setting where you play as the rulers of the White Republic, a nation in a world similar to our own.

The doomship blasted a number of towns and cities on its way to Centerhold, which was its ultimate target. We were able to shoot it down before it could reach the Coucil Palace - it crashed in the southern industrial district, which was thankfully the first to be evacuated beforehand. Emergency responce crews are there and are working on putting out fires and rescuing any civilians who are still there.
Little has remained from the ship, its wreckage is strewn across the entire quarter.
Also, the world map's proportions aren't right, I make a new one every update, it's just there for a sence of relative locations.
The NPU was given parts of its former territory back, settlers were compensated for having to move away. The pro-white government of the NPU is being cooperative and abiding by the terms of the post-Great War treaties. They revealed the information they had on the Organisation, which led to the entire event chain afterwards in the last thread.
Currently the fate of the Four remaining Spirelords is unknown. The doomship crashed...
