Has anyone else read this series?
Given /tg/s infamous hatred for all things Black Library, I think I can guess what people think.
Normally, I would disagree, but this series. Just wow. The number of off-the-wall "they did WHAT?!" moments I am having reading this is just crazy.
It's at a point were I just have to treat it like some kind of 40k based "alternate history fiction", because the stuff can't be canon, it's just too out there.
I don't think it's written badly, just the kind of things they are doing...

Welcome to Black Library. And you wonder why /tg/ and everyone that isn't a BL cock guzzling faggot hates it.
Extra lore is pointless if it simply...

Except this is beyond the pale. As mentioned, normally I would say you are talking out your arse, but with this series, I totally agree.

UR Twin and WR Blood Tax
The twin list is essentially what happens if you put Brainstorm, Wasteland, Force of Will, Ponder, Jace and Counterspell in the UR Twin shell. It's fun. Promise. You can kill someone with Pestermite+Jitte!
WR Taxes is Death & Taxes that eschews Karakas+Mangara hijinks for Spirit Guide and Blood Moon to gotcha Eldrazi Stompy, which is a large part of my shop meta. Considering switching to Imperial Taxes, but not convinced as it requires City of Traitors and is weaker...

I was expecting them to be much higher, considering how much they see play in Legacy.

You are currently standing in the middle of an empty street, as quiet and empty as an open grave, but you still feel hungry eyes watching every movement you make.
Paranoia, of course, but knowing that doesn't make things any easier. It's impossible to relax when a single wrong step could lead any number...

All too aware – you couldn't not be aware – that your movements might be watched, noted down and catalogued, you set off down the empty streets at a brisk pace. You'll act natural for a while, behaving in a way that befits a man in your circumstances, and see what happens. Perhaps you'll find your steps shadowed, or perhaps not. If you estimation of Hirohito is accurate, he'll have his best spies tailing you. You might never see them coming.
The first person you see is an exhausted...

So how do we fix kineticists?
>>47056251
-Give them D10 HD
-Use the burn mechanic from Avant Guard (Astral Construct optional)
-Rewrite some of the wild talents to make the elemental options equally viable
-Give them some way of benefiting from magic weapon enhancement bonuses
-More feat support
That's about it.
>>47056251
That idea was suggested a while ago on /tg/
Burn becomes a pool much like Ki
>Everything that adds burn decreases the pool.
>Gather Power/Supercharge lower the cost
>Infusion specialization/Composite specialization/Metakinesis master all lower cost
>Internal buffer is a pool that allows you to bypass your turn by turn spending limit

Miscellaneous Board/Table game thread
Shoutouts to all my boys on that Mahjong grind.
Finally a man with good tastes!
However, I'm afraid we wont find more than, say, two other riichi players. At least it would be enough to set a table.

I'm not too familiar with the Japanese scoring system, but I'd be totally down to play online if we had a couple other people.
>>47055021
Change the title to something more recognizable so I can bookmark it and come often.
Recently read a book about weird tabletop games like Settles Of catan. What can you tell me about it?
How bad is learning Go alone? Any resources?
Cheers.
Hey, fa/tg/uys and ca/tg/irls.
I'm looking for some non-system specific ways in which an army comprised largely of spellcasters could be countered. In my new campaign, my players might come across a nation which has a significant military rank and file force made up of magic users. I don't want to use the "spells solve everything" approach, so I'm curious as to how this army could be challenged in terms of traditional warfare.
Any help would be appreciated, and I'll happily post images of spellcasters in return.
>>47052211
How well are these casters equipped? Cloth clothes like most wizards?
This should satisfy the WORDS fags.

Nah.
Age of Sigmar is bad.
DnD5e is just aggressively mediocre.
Compared to so many other games out there, it's not even BAD. It's just compared to what came before it, and the contemporaries it has, it's just... why bother?
I don't have the energy to hate DnD5e. It's like hating overcooked white rice. Why bother? If I want a fantasy RPG of some level of quality, then just in the 'DnD or very close to DnD' vein I have 4e, 13th Age and Shadow of the Demon Lord.
I'd even rather play a tier-restricted 3.PF than...

You people are the same people who would declare that pulling a massive stone statue on top of someone in 4e would do tink damage.

I dunno, 5e artwork seems pretty good, AoS on the other hand has.... well this shit.
How fedora would you rate your setting?
>>47049568
How do you rate fedoras? What is fedoras rated off of? Is a fedora the hat we're talking about or another thing altogether you just made up for shitposting? Do we measure fedoras per mile (fpm) or volume of fedoras?
Only one.
There is no deterministic force that has shaped the universe in any particular way just various degrees of life. The highest life forms that exist as energy still behave like animals for the most part but have the potential to gain intellegence by interaction with lower-life forms by feeding on and being shaped by the collective mental energies of said lower life forms (hence belief becoming reality in a way, the energy based life forms are simply assuming forms based on pre-concieved notions or amalgams of them)

How about, the less gods and religions there are the higher the rating /10.

You can challenge death to one game of your choice before he takes your life away.
What game do you choose and why? Is it because of a challenge, interest or just to stall for time?
>>47045798
Monopoly, using the homebrew rules that yo uget cash at free parking
Is death going to cheat, or play it straight?
DnD 5e, with Death as a DM, my co-players will be Adolf Hitler, mister Rogers and Elvis. I don't think I need to explain my choice.
building a new kit and I cant decide which one I want...
the one on the left has a visor and is later era with the domed arch top
the right one is more crusader type, looks great and can be decorated more easily i think
both are at kult of athena right now if you want ot see for yourself
The one on the right isn't hinged and has silly eye holes.
Also, whoever was making it got lazy with the right side of it.
>>47045468
true..
the one thing that gets me about the one on the left is the big ol' jesus crusader cross right smack in the face. deus vult
