Would banshees try to encourage guys to join up, so they can have a more balanced gender ratio? Or do they call any dude who show up at the temple door a degenerate and tell him to fuck off?
>>46498716
Male Banshees exist, but are rare.
>>46498716
The guys join up and roleplay as feminine banshees.
I wish I was making this up, but you have to get your dude autarchs somehow, right?
>>46498716
You know there are male banshees, right? It's just that the call for the Path of the Howling Banshee is most commonly felt among females.
Hey guys,
my group wants to check out 4e (for mechanical reasons). We don't necessarily want to stick with it, but we're setting up a oneshot or a few sessions to get a good feel for the system.
I always saw stuff about using only monsters from MM3 and up and that some classes also got fixed.
What should we actually use? Is there any premade adventure with good fights? Which uses the fixed math?
Any help would be pretty dope
MM3+ stuff is preferred but not absolutely necessary. The game is tight enough that it works out of the box with minimal adjustements (cue 10 people telling you that it's not true).
Premade adventures for 4e are generally sucky, but there used to be an introductory Red Box with a decent one and pregens too.

Threaten any player that loses their sheet that you'll just give them a randomly generated sheet if they don't bring theirs.
>>46499380
What's the MM3 stuff then in particular (well, except for MM3, obviously)?
And there's really no at least servicable adventure? What a shame
>>46499570
Will do, thanks
So what is the stupidest thing that you or your players ever got into an argument about? I just had a surreal experience with my usual group
So I was running a generic game of D&D, when the party enters a tavern
>Player: So what kind of food do they serve here
>Me: Smoked boar, cheese, bread, cockles or razor clams.
>Other player: Dude, just say clams.
>Me: I'm sorry?
>Player: Just say clams, don't...

>Room is being filled with some invisible gas, we suspect it's flammable

>Player B (backstabby rogue): I assist him, I also have my own lock picking kit in case that helps

>you can tell me which pick you want and I can pass it to you, so you can concentrate
That is actually pretty sound logic, I would totally allow that as a DM
>>46498303
Yea this one I can understand. You can't help someone pick a lock.
Have you ever commissioned art for a character in a game you've played or run?
How did it go?
Pic not related, just the first picture I could find in my folders that looked like it could be from a character design process.
>>46496955
It was from the draw thread but the artist took me through the entire commission process.
i explained in detail what I was looking for he sketched up a few poses I selected my favourite, we sent emails back and forth as he requested details or nuances of the character being portrayed.
Had I the art on my phone I would post it but Bentusi was a real gentlemen about the art. Absolutely fantastic. That character turned into one of my favourites, but for the ending of the campaign.
>>46496955
Normally I'm the one drawing. Hell, I got started drawing because of playing tabletop games and wanted to draw characters. Now it's sort of come full circle.
>>46497002
Damn right Bentusi are gentlemen!
>>46496955
Sure, here's Legion, from an old forum RP thing during my edgy days.
>Malcador wanted the primarchs to be female
>Big Daddy E thought it was a joke
Let's be honest, lads, the mother complexes that would have caused in the Space Marines would have undone the universe
>>46496806
PS: Malcador knew this and was actually the real Emperor in disguise, Big E was just there for public appearances
>>46496812
Either that or Malcador made the Emperor up and the corpse sitting on the golden throne is actually Malcador's
>>46496806
But we would have gotten pic related if Malc had his way.

Why are Damnation and Bitterblossom so expensive when both see little to no play?
>>46496591
Price memory, the fact that they do see play, and in Damnation's case its singular printing.
>>46496591
Highly desired, barely reprinted if at all. Damnation will continue to climb thanks to EDH anyways.

Hello out there /tg/, We've got some callers with us today telling us about some of their favorite low level encounters1-3 rangeor just encounters they would like to run in that range, anything from interesting diplomatic missions to a unique twist on the 'kill rats in the cellar' we all know and hate. You probably won't hear much about goblins here!TLDR: Post unique low level encounters, They don't strictly need to be combat. Things you have seen, used, or would like to use and really liked or like the idea of.
Escape from prison through the sewers.
Where you will fight giant rats.
Helping a farmer bring in his cattle.
And having to fight giant rats.
I like to have them band together to fight a monk who had a little too much to drink. They don't need to kill him, just weaken him enough he calms down. Then the innkeeper pays them as thanks.
Only occasionally does someone decide to ignore the fight, But they usually got roped in by the monks drunken sloshing.

Seems a little under whelming. Opinions?
People think they'll be able to use the psychic power to take over a stormsurge and fire all of its weapons, but it only grants a single shooting attack, not a whole shooting phase.
>>46494980
Whether or not it's one weapon or all weapons, I think it's still not good enough. Overall the formations were a disappointment to me even when I did not even have high expectations.
>>46494572
Formations are good.
It's the vanilla CSM that still sucks, but we all know that.
No Detachment is the real problem, and there is no really an excuse for that.
would you trust your pc's/party members with one of these?
how could this fit in a campaign,or even a players hands,especially if said players didnt recognize it?
i want to put one in a campaign one day just to see what happens.i may even make rules for apostles and sacrifices if i really do it.though the chances of someone in my group recognizing the description instantly are more than average, i wanna see how you guys think things would go or how you would do it.
WTF is it ?
Not trusting my players with something hasn't stopped me giving it to them before.
>>46495161
Demon Egg that summons 4 to 5 incredibly powerful, near-godlike demons when you are at your absolute lowest point in life who then offer you to give you another chance by transforming you into a demon and the only thing you have to do is to sacrifice the person/s dearest to you.
>>46494568
Ripping shit straight off is dumb, but my players got their hands on a similar thing. It's a locket with a "Djinn" in it that fullfills three wishes to satisfaction,...

Is there a way to justify the use of swords in a modern or futuristic setting that doesn't negate projectile weapons entirely (a la Dune)?
>>46492400
1. The way we do today: a purely ornamental side arm for officers
2. Bladed sidearns are useful in space stations or during boarding actions in space where a missed shot can cause decompession and air loss
3. They're like plasma torches and cut through thick armor you'd need heavier firepower or simply more expensive guns to penetrate
4. Ignitable gasses
>>46492400
Handwave some bullshit way that gun control would actually work.
>>46492459
>2. Bladed sidearns are useful in space stations or during boarding actions in space where a missed shot can cause decompession and air loss
This. Get hyped for space knife fights.
So lets say you actually got dumped into another world, with pc level stats and growth potential. Would any of you actually be a good guy? It seems like most people would either stay safe in a town somewhere, or go rape/murder/pillage across the lands.
no. i'd go straight to a college and start learning magic
Does being a hero actually pay anything?
>>46492367
Amen.
I mean I don't know enough about engineering to do much, but the ability to apply the scientific method to throwing fireballs might be handy.

I personally like Ahriman and his quest to become a God.
