Holos:
- more similar to camo
- in reactive turn can auto regen holoechoes if out of LoF
- can delay ARO against holoechoes, as they are markers
- this means the reactive troop can always shoot against the real mini, but takes a surprise shot
- you can choose to shoot one of the markers and avoid the surprise shot mod if you guess right
- Carlos is easier to understand then these fucking irish
- Holo1 same as N2, must be the same silhouette model from your own army
- Holo2 3 markers that all look like the mini
- Baldy needsto get his teeth fixed
- You can make duplicates of Holo1 projections, ie. Kotail as 3 Neema Sataar
- Holo3 is Patrocles only, doesnt have NFB

> In his long life as a servant of the Blood God, Khârn has travelled the breadth of the galaxy, staining the ground of a thousand, thousand worlds red in honour of his murderous master. Though the Betrayer yearns for the destruction of the Imperium –- an obsession that Abaddon the Despoiler has used more than once to lure him into his army -– it is the taking of skulls that truly drives Khârn. Human heads are the most desirable, but any able opponent is a worthy offering to Khorne. Khârn has taken the lives of almost every kind of human, alien and daemon to walk the stars or dwell beneath them. Tyranid Swarmlords and Hive Tyrants, Necron Overlords, Eldar Autarchs and Ork Warbosses have all tasted the bite of Gorechild's teeth. Khârn knows that Khorne cares not from whence the blood flows, only that it does.

-WoTDM Kharn

So what's the difference between Tyranid Swarmlords and Hive Tyrants?

A wanderer, someone who drifts from place to place on the breeze, enjoying the world and doing good deeds to protect the innocent, using cleverness and wit and not leaving an area until it is sufficiently aided and fortified, before inevitably leaving off on the wind.

>What are you currently working on in your world?
Developing the combat system as much as I can. I'm trying to balance freeform roleplay and a battle system that doesn't let fights turn into petty pissing contests that die with no resolution. At least, as much as you can, since there will always be Those Players.

>What aspect of your world is the most original?
I don't know if I'd say any of it is particularly original. They're quadrupeds instead of bipeds? That's more unique/unusual than original, though. Then again, your mileage may vary.

>What part of your worldbuilding would you consider the most difficult or time consuming?
The artwork, because I have to pay for it. It's worth it, but money is not easy to acquire.

>Why are you building your world?
I want a ton of people, particularly middle schoolers to young adults, to roleplay on this site and discover, or rediscover, their love for writing, artwork, and creativity. That's so sappy and cheesy-sounding, now that I type it all out.

>What part of your world would you like critique or help on?
Nothing in particular. Answer questions from curious anons. My question, I suppose, is if a freeform quadruped roleplay that had a fully established world, species, and a simple battle mechanic system to minimize conflict would appeal to a lot of people, but also to you in particular. Why and why not, stuff like that.

You feel your strength leeching from your bones, letting you sink deeper and deeper into your comfy office chair. “You... saw the stream.”

“I'm seeing it as we speak,” he replies sternly. “An army of MPs aren't breaking down her door right now, because... why, exactly?”

“You want us to SWAT our own shipgirl? And pulling the breaker occurred to me, but at this point it'd just make a bigger stir her stream died without explanation.”

“You seem awfully sanguine about this, Admiral.”

A miserable, defeated sigh nearly escapes you. “Sir... today is the day you answered a text message and got a link to two admirals and their shipgirls livestreaming to an audience of untold gazillions without authorization. You know what today is for me, sir?”

“Do tell,” he says, with that lilting tone of a dare masquerading as an invitation.

“I want to say Tuesday,” you reply, “but Christ knows I'm not even sure what day it *is.* Because I spent last night duct-taped to a conference table.”

“... beg your pardon?”

“Duct taped,” you say, warming to the chat, “to a table. While hallucinating about a dead man on fire and another one pointing a gun at my head.”

“Have you been to see your doctor, recently?” A shuffling of papers in the background. “I know you've been under a lot of stress, and it's easy to forget things but I've got a complaint h-”

“I don't have time,” you retort, “unless he's got something to make the dogfish go away.”

*That* makes him quiet for a moment. “... come again, Settle?”

“The Dog Fish,” you enunciate clearly. “See, my supposed assistant bought me a lovely new cane covered with rhinestones and glitter and capped it with a fish globe containing a dogfish. Which is some variety of freshwater-tolerant shark, or something? But now I'm dreaming about it.”

Silence.

“It talks Russian, by the way.”

More silence.

Then - “Admiral, are you pleading the insanity defense?”

This voice you do not recognize. “Am I on speakerphone, sir?”

“Just a conference call.”

You bristle. “To whom do I owe the pleasure-”

“That,” the CNO intones, “would be the Secretary of the Navy.”

If the CNO is God, then SecNav is the HR manager who *hired* God. You feel the room go all swimmy as you forget to breathe for a minute. “Oh. Hello sir. How are you today?”

“Oh,” SecNav says easily. “I'm fine.” His voice is brimming - nay, almost bursting - with some strange tension; as if he's restraining himself from bellowing. Yelling really isn't a go-to for anyone above low commissioned rank - it looks bad in front of The Troops, after all - unless they've got someone on a private line of communication behind closed doors and they are pissed off. Like you are, right now. You suspect that lingering politician inclinations are keeping you alive and unskinned - but for mere moments more, for your luck cannot last.

“Oh,” you reply. “That's good. Can I help you, sir?” Your voice sounds almost as brittle as you feel.
>>
“This stream,” SecNav states. “Has... over... six hundred thousand viewers right now. Well, all told. It's already being mirrored on a few other sites.”

Six. Hundred. Thousand. “S-sir, did you-”

“In Japan,” he clarifies. “We haven't even checked foreign IPs yet.”

“Oh. Oh, that's...”

“Go ahead,” SecNav prompts. “What is it?”

What it is, is racist and extremely un-PR comments from living, talking, walking weapons of war from an era where long-simmering tensions had broken out into full-bodied violence - now broadcast to an audience of millions. What it is is gasoline poured directly onto a magnesium torch lying a deck above the main shell magazine. It's every public fear, fanned by all the wrong sorts and every opportunistic isolationist bastard you can imagine given renewed strength and vigor. It's a three-word denunciation of your pissweak excuse that it'd make a bigger scene to abort the stream - SecNav might know of the Streisand Effect, as a politician, but after the Chinese ambassador is done pissing directly through his phone he probably won't give a fuck.

“It's... bad.”

“How bad?”

How is 'x isn't broken/bad because the GM can make adjustments!' still an argument that gets made in the modern day?

I'm not calling any specific mechanic or game out right now. I'm just surprised. I thought this idea would have died sometime back in the old DnD3e days instead of something being used to defend certain mechanics even now.

Because not every aspect of a system that you think is a problem is a problem for everyone, and since no system will ever be perfect, accepting that sometimes a DM will need to make adjustments is better than switching systems whenever there's something that annoys you.

Because people will resort to anything as long as they don't have to acknowledge that something they invested into (emotionally, economically, in terms of time) might actually be flawed. Self-denial and Internet echo chambers do that for you.

Assistant's Luck: Outlasting Them All
After the Assistant spent the eternity in the Groundhog Day loop on Space Station 13, he gained a supernatural sense that tells him when and where something wrong will happen, so he can naturally avoid (or intentionally participate in) the event.

Chaos and Destruction: CALL THE EMERGENCY SHUTTLE!
In case of death, the Assistant is capable of summoning the gravitational anomaly (also known as "singularity") which was often used for power generation on Space Station 13. Upon activation, it destroys the Assistant and all the chances for him to respawn, and creates a miniature black hole, the maximum size of which is capped. It has an enormous gravitational pull and indefinitely destroys everything it comes in contact with.
