OP let it 404 edition
For those of you who weren't here for the first thread, a quick summary on our Chaos Warband
>Name: The Forged
>Colors are in next post
>Warband was fromed during a desperatre life or death teamup between an Imp fists company and an IW warband
>They fought together against and Tyranid attack, and are now in an arms race with them on their Fortress world covered in tyranid biof-form jungles
>Lead by a Dreadnought champion who royally fucked up an Eldar Craftworld to get new toys for the Dark Mechanicus compliment they are allied with.
>A strange mutation afflicts the Warband, as their wargear, augmetics, armor weapons and vehicles begin to merge with their bodies, though far more elegantly than their counterparts amongst chaos
>They are obsessed with becoming the perfect weapons, the perfect soldiers and the perfect marriage between flesh and metal
>They slowly evolve in their armor, over the centuries a power armourd brother will become encased in terminator armor, which itself shall then mould into a dreadnought many more centuries later
>Slaanesh is their unknown patron, for they do not actively worship the prince of pleasure their obsession with perfection plleases him/her/it, and so gifts them blessing without their knowledge
Symbol is still in the works, lets get back to fluffing boys! We need write and draw fags!
colors are pic related
Also last thread for those interested >>47104006
>>47113229
Do they have psykers? How do they feel about magic?
>>47113479
Probably see it as another tool to bring death to their enemies.
They are not very pious(their patron isn't even directly worshipped) But sorcerers who are less beholden to their deities or undivided ones are probably fine
Of course we could spin it another way, and they see magic as an example of power given form, and sorcerers are believed to basically be cannons or some such
I dunno
Stage 122: The returning sparrows bring with them....
Toshida Ginka is very quiet, and you're not really all that surprised.
Confronted with the realization of who you are in no uncertain terms is one thing. Realizing that there are others who would make sure you either never become what you are meant to be or who would take possession of you to control that power is another matter entirely. Facing the God of the Oceans is relatively easy compared to knowing there might be assassins and kidnappers in your future.
Ginka-chan isn't entirely surprised by your revelations; your family is strange and wonderful and you tend to make even more of an impression now than you used to. For someone who spends most of her free time roaming the Shinjuku district and solidifying a reputation for unusual and cool styles, that is an impressive claim. You wait patiently as Ginka worries over her situation and those of her family – rather, the Ama divers of Mikimoto Pearl Island.
You have to admit there are a couple of things that make staying a good possibility. The temple to Ryujin Owatatsumi – your father and the Dragon Kami of the oceans – is as sacrosanct a place as is possible. It has its own guardian deity, and even when you destroy Japan, the temple will be safe, as will the pearl beds of Mikimoto. The Ama are a sacred people, meaning it would be incredibly upsetting to the kami to do them harm of any sort. Even threatening them might anger many spirits. And finally, the chief of the Ama Divers is an elder and knowledgeable woman, who will definitely cause trouble for anyone trying to kidnap her adopted daughter.
>>47200081
On the other hand, Ginka is your first real friend outside of the Clan, Yui included. Yui is yours by virtue of your being a demon tamer, capable of bringing demons into your service to atone for crimes or to become better people. You don't like that, but the fact remains, and it was proven very pointedly when you possessed her during your family's altercation with one of the Generals Two, the warlords of Clan Ryo. So Ginka-chan is the first friend you made. She is a kappa-child, which means she would be a strong ally with even a little training, despite her humility and humble upbringing. Even then, she has monastic training, having grown up in Ginkaku-ji, the Silver Pavilion Zen temple in Kyoto.
And you really would like to try and heal the scars she was given by some bastard with a broken beer bottle....or at least find that walking dead man.
[] Let her make the decision in her own time.
[] Point out these factors for her to study.
[] Check to see what the rest of your family thinks.
[] Ask her to come home with you.
[] Suggest she remain here.

You're starting to suspect that Sunao Momose, Holm's son and potential successor as high priest to Lapis, might be an idiot.
Holm would claim differently, you're sure, but he is – by his own admission – far from unbiased in matters such as this. Without family ties blinding you to the facts, the simple truth is plain to see – although nice enough, the boy just isn't very smart. He's sheltered and naïve, softened by a life spent away from any kind of significant hardship. Combine that with the bonds of his family offering him a chance that few others could enjoy, and it's easy to see him being resented.
Holm also said that Sunao was popular amongst the people of the Dragon's Head but, well, you've already touched on that. The old man can hardly be counted on to give an unbiased opinion. That's why you're here, after all.
>>47198612
You linger a few paces behind – long paces, measured in your lengthy stride – as Sunao and Toraji amble along the streets of the Dragon's Head. They make a strange pair, those two – Sunao, the golden boy, and glum, neurotic Toraji. You're still not exactly sure what kind of connection they have. Friends, perhaps, or something more antagonistic? Toraji, for his part, seemed to bear a kind of resentment for the little Emperor, but Sunao showed no such ill will. Then again, you consider, why would he?
No, if anything, Sunao seemed oblivious to the idea that Toraji could be anything other than the perfect friend. Laughing and joking with every street they walk down, he barely notices the fact that Toraji hardly says two words. When conversation slows, Sunao blows an unbearable shrill note on a silver whistle he keeps around his neck, sending his pet falcon up into the air. A second blast on the whistle calls the bird back, settling comfortably on the boy's shoulder. When it isn't flying around in lazy circles, the bird spends all of its time preening and grooming itself.
It's the perfect pet for him, in other words.
With the falcon taking to the air once more, Sunao turns to face you. “We've decided,” he announces brightly.
Decided what, you ask, how they're going to prove their worth to Lapis? Your suggestion had been to get the townspeople on side, but they've barely spoken with anyone except each other. Have they come up with a better idea, then?
“That's just it!” Sunao insists, “I... we're still going to reach out to the people, but not in ones or twos. It'll be much quicker if we just get them all together!”
“A speech,” Toraji explains, “Oh, I hate speeches...”
“We can gather everyone at the temple,” Sunao adds, “Simplicity itself!”
>And you're both agreed?
>I think the personal touch would be better
>A good speech is a fine thing. Good idea
>Did you have any questions, then?
>Other
>>47198620
>A good speech is a fine thing, but I need to see if you can do it one on one, first.
>>47198620
>And you're both agreed?
You seem reluctant Toraji.
>Did you have any questions, then?
You're casting a wide net here for the sake of speed. It's high risk, high reward. If it's poor, you make a bad impression on EVERYONE instead of a singular person if you did one on ones.
Are battlebards any good??

I would comment that this was lazy bait, but honestly all the dumbshit primarch fanboys are just sucking too much cock to listen.
How would you run a blackpowder fantasy game?
I'm thinking of either going with the mid-17th century (tail end of the pike and shot era), french revolution/Napoleonic, or the American Civil War.
Reliance on melee weapons obviously increases the further back you go, as does the availability of armor.
What game system works best?
>>47183162
I think you should use the Warhammer RPG 2nd edition book. Just ignore the setting and use your own.
It's simple and works pretty well.
>>47183218
Problem is I'm an autist when it comes to guns.
>>47183228
The game, if you add the Arms and Armours, has it's fair share of black powder guns.
If you want something more detailed than that, I can't help you, no other game with those guns pop in my mind.
How do l turn my D&D campaign into a80s flick?
Depends. Is this set in fantasy or sci-fi?

Pay the fuck attention, whoever on the Deathwing team decided female mariachi rap was a good idea for a gothic setting trailer.
This is how you do fitting, anachronistic music. This game is so much more brutal and 40k-esque it's painful to watch the DW trailer anymore.

Real thread? Real thread.
So jumpers, what's your idle animation?
You know, we should probably get posting so this one stays rather than the other one.
How do you balance wizards and warriors, /tg/?
Mak Magic really slow. You can do really awesome shit with prep time, but once someone is up in your face with a sword you're fucked unless you can defend yourself or get others to protect you.

Why the fuck are there three different versions of Firelink Shrine?
Copypasting stuff from PVP central:
00tn2.blogspot gr/2016/04/dark-souls-3.html
Divine Blessing
Correct translation: "Holy water said to have been blessed by the queen of Lothric. She was the wife to the previous king Osroeth, and even compared to a goddess of fertility and bounty, but she is said to have disappeared after giving birth to their youngest child, Ocelotte."
>-She is COMPARED (例えられた) to a goddess of fertility and bounty, and this wording means that she is most definitely not said goddess. This is probably what the wording"revered as" tried to convey (why would they say an actual goddess is "revered as" that goddess?)
Sun Princess Ring
Correct translation: "Leaving her homeland with many other gods, she became a wife, then a mother, and is said to have gave birth to precious children."
>-"Heavenly children" is just "precious children" in the source text.
Bountiful Light
Correct translation: "A miracle said to have been taught to the knights by Gertrude, the Queen's saint. She who would later become the "Daughter of Angels" was said to have been the queen's child."
>-"Heavenly Daughter" has people drawing connections with this and the Sun Princess Ring, but in the original text this says "Daughter of Angel(s)" and Sun Princess Ring says "proud children".
Gwynevere is not the queen, and Gertrude has nothing to do with Gwynevere.
>LORE QUESTION
>So at this point we can all agree that Lothric was in the middle of a civil war between the red and the blue knights. The blue knights believed in the angels (sneks) so the red knights were probably loyal to the old traditions (sunbros).
>The closer we get to the gaybros the more blues we find. Were the blues protecting them from the reds or were they trying to force them to link the fire? Were the serpents in favour of Lothric or did they want him to be a LoC?
The strategy guides identify the blue knights as the elite royal guard.
The winged fat knights have nothing to do with the other knights (the three on the roof are specifically Gertrude's Three Knights).
>Are Gertrude's Three Knights something mentioned in an item, or is that just a nickname?
That's the actual name of the three flying gold fatties on the roof in the strategy guide.
>So what's the significance of the non-winged fat knights bearing the same blue as the royal guard?
The fat knights were originally Lothric knights too, considering how the gold ones grew actual wings from their angel worship they might have just been regular blue knights (royal guard) that mutated.
Gertrude was the daughter of the queen so her followers being royal guard adds up too.
