>Not anymore. GW is turning over a new leaf with things. They reoppened their facebook pages with interaction. They are doing community feedback FAQs, and the General's handbook, which is coming out next weekend, has the matched play and points system, as well as a few narrative campaign systems.
A pity that couldn't have happened before they axed the tomb kings army I was trying to get
>>48234945
It actually started happening before they squatted the tomb kings and brets. Sorry bro.
But there is a chance they may be back. They just don't fit in the story right now.
>>48234910
so with the new generals handbook unit upgrades dont cost any points??
What was the worst idea you or your players had come with? Did it miraculously worked or it failed?
>>48207085
My worst idea to date as a GM is my planned Mass Effect/Mutant Chronicles cross over setting. It's a loose collection of notes right now and I doubt I'll ever try telling my players about it. The whole thing spawned out of a conversation with a friend after a game of warzone about what would happen if the main antagonistic force(the Dark Soul and it's apostles and legions) of Mutant Chronicles was unleashed by some of the Mass Effect races after first contact with humanity.
I think I'll leave it to rot in my notebook, most of my "original" ideas end up flopping, this wouldn't be any different.
I had a player who once tried to do this:

Without taking cover
Trying to fight a Lasombra Ancilla with a hand help M2 machine gun. I did this by charging into an obscured building, with no visual on the target and without even trying to lay down some suppressing fire. Needless to say I got ashed in one round of combat.
Do you bother creating a real dungeons, or are you one of these shitty GM who's okay with just having a bunch of rooms connected together?
>>48242337
Elves are shit.
>>48242337
real dungeons.
Sort of. I mean they're not always actually dungeons, they're more like alchemist labs, refurbished caves/mines, hidden cultists temples/shrines, and decently intact abandoned forts/castles.
Dungeons might crop up in those but dungeons are rarely the whole thing.
Typically don't even do dungeons.
We did one recently that was part of a "game show for funds" as kind of a spoof thing to hand wave travel expenses since I feel that weighs the game down.
But as far as "You enter the room. Roll perception. You see a monster and some traps" dungeons, those have only come up once as a novelty. It was a fun distraction but we just don't fit them into our game's narrative.
We're more likely to encounter "the wrath of nature" (i.e. quick sand, bogs that make carts useless, animals and beasts stealing our shit / picking a fight.)
Trying to help stat a D&D 5e character for a friend - what skills would a forest-dwelling lamia have?
>>48239455
+2 to Magical Realm
Character basis was that he was a monk trained by one
>>48239515
That would translate to the Hermit or Outlander background
Why don't all Tyranids have as sharp claws as genestealers? The Hive Mind is all about trying to engineer the most bullshit unit possible why not give every single lizardbug claws that render armor useless?
My second question is why only marines in terminator armor teleport? Why not regular marines?
It's resource vs output type situation.
Rending claws ae not present on lesser tyrannic forms as it is more resource intensive to make them as well as the musculature needed to make use of the hardness factor. If hoards are needed quantity is better than quality for the same resource cost. If you need deadly ambush/infiltrators those same.resources can then be put towards the more intensive genestealers.
Regular marines can teleport but it is rare and fickle tech that can only move X number of combatants so it is used for the units with maximum effectiveness/numbers ratio ie terminators.
>>48239000
my question is how big are genestealers?
They say about the size of a normal man, however, they are represented in miniture form as big as a terminator. In fact, if standing on hind legs, they would dwarf a terminator.
>>48239000
Pt. cost.
How come whenever someone brings up magical items, everyone wants to talk about horrible psychological curses?
Let's talk about the exact opposite. What are some blessings/blessed items that have more of a RP effect than a gameplay one?
>>48233117
Makes your dick bigger, made out of auto-renewing chocolate, and it ejaculates money.

>ring of encircling
This powerful artifact uses ancient, forgotten magics to form a complete and inviolable circle around the finger it is worn upon
>pouch of limited fertility
This wondrous pouch contains magical seeds that bless the ground with the ability to sprout entirely new forms of life
>>48233176
>pouch of limited fertility
Here's a rare illustration of this relic
Kill the level 1 sacred cow in medieval fantasy tabletop RPGs.
From now on, level 1 means a child or a small animal, most adults with real jobs are level 3 or 4, and the starting level for PCs is 5.
This way, a PC's first level up is not such a huge leap in HP and class features that level 1 enemies immediately become a joke, and an illiterate barbarian who multiclasses into wizard will not get all the benefits of a starting wizard who supposedly studied for years.
This will never die so long as Paizo keeps on having all adventure paths start at 1st level, and as long as Wizards of the Coast does the exact same thing with their own adventures.
>>48223865
I do this with my campaigns for the same reason.
Also since characters with the same class can go very different routes these differences are much more apparant after just a few levels, making characters a bit more unique from the start.
>>48223865
Both problems you list don't actually stem from starting at level 1 though, and can be easily fixed by just not playing D&D and its derivatives.
I'm running Eldritch Horror Ghostbusters in Shadowrun. Suggestions/inspirations? Picunrelated
>>48218567
Pic obviously related. The remak is your plot
>>48218587
I guess in the general? Abominations coming into your reality destroying everything you know and love is in theme, but I'm looking for something a little more specific.
>>48218587
I came here to say this. Thank you for getting it said.

Do you guys have that one friend who always pushes a broken custom card idea and asks you about it?
Currently he keeps sending me this 1cmc Planeswalker with "+1 Add G to your mana pool", and despite how much I disagree, he keeps arguing how it isn't that bad. It's been going on for a while now, and this post is partly to rant, but how do I get him to either make it in quiet or leave me alone about it? I've tried dismissing it like a normal human being but he keeps sending me it.
>>48207068
Get him to post it here, or do it yourself. Then show him the responses it gets. Oh, and point to Tibalt and the original Nissa for why CMC < 3 planeswalkers are not a good idea.
A while back, I watched Reign of Assassins with a friend, and not too long ago I saw Shaolin (which is not technically a Wuxia film, but whatever). I am in a mood for stories of daringdoo in the secret circles of martial arts, and the world that surrounds it.
Have you ever run a Wuxia campaign, how dit it go?
What system do you prefer?
What movies, series and books would you recommend someone to immerse themselves in the genre?
Buddhism, Daoism, Confusianism, or one of the many different folk beliefs?

New stuff: clever beasts/monkeymen, becoming a werewolf notes, quest requirements and rewards added!, clarifications here and there.
Very close to "done"
>>48234244
1.2 of main CYOA, just a few things:
'Map Maker' mental trait added
'Enchanting' magic added
'Region Locked' drawback added
'A Dark God' quest added
Nemesis drawback clarified
Level 0 of temperature tolerance slightly toned down (still enough for comfort in almost all climes, but not enough to go naked in a blizzard). Higher levels unaffected.

So what I'm hearing is that you're basically playing co-op Highlander? Last man standing and all that. I'm guessing the 'only reason' bit also implies the potential for PVP?

How fun/good is Zur, the Enchanter?
Any recommendations for this guy? I want to make it "destroy everything" with a side of voltron.
