The year is 2040
Humanity was crushed by the Fleet of Fog, and can't risk losing the firepower they still have left.
They had to watch as their navies were all destroyed by ships that brought them hope and victories long ago.
But now, they can see these ships in a new light...

You are the USS New Jersey, and are ready to take back the seas from the Fleet of Fog!
Last time, we came back as a Shipgirl, assisted in sinking the Fleet of Fog's USS Alaska, got to base, got a rundown on what happened between having been decommissioned and now, and learned about the other 3 Shipgirls currently at NBSD.
"FOG TASK FORCE 12 SPOTTED," the loudspeakers all around the base blare. "DRONES HAVE SPOTTED ONE TENNESSEE CLASS BATTLESHIP, ONE ESSEX CLASS CARRIER, TWO BENSON CLASS DESTROYERS, AND ONE FLETCHER CLASS DESTROYER. ALL SHIPGIRLS REPORT TO BATTLE STATIONS IMMEDIATELY."
Hailey, Houston, Argy, and you all prepare for high-speed launch.
"LAUNCHING IN THREE...
TWO...
ONE."
A catapult rockets you forwards into open water, and the sea sprays around you.

Lets face it, Vance Stubbs is a traitor and a fool even if he wins. The most likely result is that the Eldar assassinated his ass or the Necrons killed him. With DoW 3, however, it is clear; With Gorgutz survival and him leading a much more advanced WAAAAGH, it is clear that Stubbs head is on his boss pole
Please let this be canon.
>looted baneblades
Is such a thing even possible?
>>47098255
Possible? It's common practice.

Since Mage is out, how about we populate a Consilium based on Dave's guidelines ( http://i.imgur.com/vZuFIPR.png keep in mind, the numbers of Gnosis are shifted a bit from here). A couple hundred Mages is pretty ridiculous, so we'll come up with a hundred or so. Think of it as an unofficial NPC Compendium. Or just a good place for people who are having trouble coming up with concepts to get concept ideas.

If you honestly want to do that "Make a Consilium" thing, it'd be best to sort out some page or something we can post characters on.
>From here, mages can either travel through tunnels in the stone into the Anima Mundi, or skirt its edge to walk into the Primordial realms containing humanity’s essential emotions and fears. These realms, representing the animal instincts of the human race, are poorly understood. Their inhabitants are typically monstrous and highly protective of their territory.
And here I was, thinking they forgot Beast all together.

>Personally, I like Prime more for doing Green Lantern things than I do creating an army of illusions. If summoning hard light constructs is no longer a thing, I'll be disappointed, but not terribly put out.
Exactly what I liked. Now we just have a Prime 3 tass-object spell (simple objects only, no moving parts) and a Prime 5 Marionette equivalent that any other mage can steal from you if their nimbus touches it.
>>47096941
Probably. I figured it would be best to get a few first, and if I'd waited, the thread probably would have fell off the board by the time I was done. Whenever I'm the one making the threads, I have a tendency to spend ten or twenty minutes fussing with an image, and lose the "Next thread/Previous thread" connection.
Plus, the only ideas I have so far are a transgender Acanthus named Tiresias and a Cabal of super secretive Mages based on the Four Horsemen.
>>47096992
I don't need moving parts to create a sword out of Supernal Truth.
Marionette always took too long to get to, so I never set my sights on it. I don't even know if I put it on the spell list of the Proximus Dynasty I made of the kid who thought he was a superhero when his Dynasty birthrights started showing up.
Can Orcs be redeemed in LOTR?
I think I need to start filtering out posts with the word "redeemed" in them.
>>47093588
No.
Literal definition of Evil rape babies.
Because they were raped.
As babies. (Melkor+Noldor slaves)
And they rape everyone's babies.
So no.
>>47093647
Achkually
Tolkien later wrote he regretted portraying the orcs as irredeemable because it didn't mesh with him, and he suggested they might be
It's up in the air. As originally written, no, orcs are the embodiment of evil and uglyness
Does the Lady of Pain have a personality at all or does she just exist as another ambiguous, unkillable god npc?
>>47092234
Replace every instance of "Lady of Pain" in the text with "the laws of physics in Sigil."
That's all she is. The reason that Sigil works the way it does. She has no opinions, thoughts, or agenda other than to enforce that Sigil continues to work the way that it does, and in that respect she is all-powerful.

This week's Magic Story is "The Lunarch Inquisition" by James Wyatt.

Kind of disappointed that Odric didn't double down and go full fanatical-devotion-to-the-pope. I was really looking forward to the two of them clashing.
>>47080230
I am fine with Odric being a good guy, but if they make Thalia a lesbian I am going to go shoot someone at Wizards.
>>47080357
Hopefully that doesn't happen. Seriously, I have nothing against em, but shoehorning it in isn't particularly good writing when it doesn't add anything of value to the story.
Have you ever played with someone who hates your guts?
Yes. It's kind of baffling to see in person. I would have cut ties a lot sooner, but I just felt bad for the guy. Everything that leads to someone forcing themselves to play a game with someone they hate is kind of just pitiful to see
>>47069465
Briefly.
Played in a Call of Cthulhu game with some micro-alpha male. One of these "fake it 'till you make it types" that goes out of his way to project confidence, and he accomplishes this by putting down others.
Wouldn't let me participate. Talked over me whenever I tried to roleplay. Had to shit on everything I did. Made fun of my accent and pronunciation (I'm not from around here. I've been living on another continent for over half a decade.)
Fucking blonde haired racist nazi cunt, cock-nosed goblin-looking motherfucker.
>>47069465
Not unless they were amazingly good at keeping it a secret.
Why would you play a non-competitive game (I assume you're not talking about 40K or WM matches here) with someone you hate?
I'll be your thread conductor on this lovely day, since the normal Anon hasn't made it.
For a quick Stand, use the following method-

OR just use

Everything you ever wanted to know about Stands, but were too afraid to ask.
『』This stand materializes as a white and black colored horde of mosquitos that have a striped pattern and have slender air pumps for mouths. Their eyes are metallic and their wings are grey. This stand has the ability to inject his pump into a human or animal and inflate a portion of their body. For Example, several mosquitos could fly into someone's ear and pump the back of their eye until it explodes in their skull or flying into someone's mouth and inflating their heart till it bursts.

Alright, same deal as usual: if you have a Stand idea, tell me it, and I'll make up a sheet for it.
The year is 1127, and the papal-sanctioned reconquest of the Iberian peninsula is underway.
With christians securing early victories against the andalusian muslims, times look dark for the Sunni Sultan - and his dreams of Caliphdom seem to have been crushed before his campaign could get properly underway, both by the christians in the north, and the Shia Egyptians from the east.
The Pope is pleased by the developing situation, but the rulers of northern spain look on with increasing anxiousness as Crusaders start to establish their own states around major cities captured from the muslims.
In the wake of the battle at Valencia (where a heroic defence was just barely saved in time from an onrushing horde) the peninsula is ripe for the taking.
Will the muslim world bounce back, or will the men of the cross march steadily on?
Deus Vult!
>>47100744
This is an alternate-history nation builder with an emphasis on the characters that take part in this holy war. It is a sequel to the original Crusade Builder, whose archive you can find (along with the other reconquest threads) at http://archive.4plebs.org/tg/search/subject/Crusade%20Builder/
Knowledge of the minutiae of the past is not a requirement to take part - know only that the first crusade was a success, and an ambitious pope is attempting to cash in on some of that crusading glory soon after.
You take on the role of a warlord of some description. Whether you intend to make a name, carve out a kingdom, serve your ruler faithfully or defend your home, you must have come from somewhere.
To play, fill in the following character sheet:
Name: [What you are called]
Culture: [Your country of origin]
Fluff: [What were you known for before the reconquest? Why are you taking part?]
Religion: [Are you a triumphant Catholic? A resurgent eastern Orthodox? A beleaguered Sunni or even some kind of Pagan?]
Colour: [How do you want to be represented on the map?]
Transit: [How did you arrive in Iberia? Did you march? Did you sail? Or are you simply defending your home?]
>>47100754
You can chat with other players in the IRC at http://client00.chat.mibbit.com/?channel=%23Nation&server=irc.mibbit.net
Every turn, you should describe two actions in your post under your stat block, and roll dice+2d100 to determine how successful they were.

What faction would you want to live in if you had to stay at the same position in society that you are know for 40k. Personally i am going eldar just because I think that would be easiest for the middle class

So you'd be an Eldar Guardian and die a horrible death anytime your Craftworld was attacked or attacked someone.

Mantis is a little kid of a clan compared to the others, they have only been around for like 1,100 years. They are babies compared to the other clans. No way they are in Core.
Crane are going to dominate the Core set anyways. All the FFG LCGs get insanely strong control cares in the Core set and Crane is the control faction.
