What sensation do tyranids feel when they fire their bioweapons?

Is it pleasure?

They probably feel nothing at all.

Bodily responses beyond pain in a "This shit is wrong, fix it" manner is useless to a construct that's not going to live beyond a couple of months before being recycled.
>>
>>46410192
A satisfaction akin to taking a good dump.
>>
>>46410192
Probably no more of a reaction than when you spit. This is something they're going to be doing very often, having too strong of a sensation associated with it would distract them in battle. I get that you're implying a whole phallic thing here, but realistically it would be a really bad design decision to orgasm constantly in a fight.

What's the biggest sacrifice you or your players have made for an NPC that wasn't mechanically rewarded?

Let me guess, a few gold from your massive fortune for a round of drinks, right?

They found two potions of longevity from a treasure hoard, and used one to bribe a king to give them a patch of land.

Then the thief gave up the other to her father (who works at the court) for free because she felt the whole deal had been dishonest for some reason.

I had a character who let himself be captured so they wouldn't find the nicest goblin in the world.

He underwent extensive and brutal torture as they tried to extract information and generally be dicks. The result was him being crippled from the chest down, missing an arm, three fingers from the other one, his right foot, both of his knee-caps, a few teeth, most of his face, an eye and his genitals.

He didn't tell them shit. Real icing on the cake is when the party finally sprung him he managed to tear the throat out of his torturer with the teeth he had left.

So I guess I sacrificed PC-ship to save an NPC, then we went and saved him, who was now an NPC.

Tell me about the last session you played, /tg/

First time with an all-girls group, they actually play really differently compared to guys.
The murderhobo-fuckery was extremely low, which is an absolute plus. But they did try to bend the rules considerably more: "my polar bear can actually do this trick as well!". And they react entirely different towards cruelty and evil stuff, up to the point where they argued whether or not they had the right to kill the filthy creature that clearly came at them with a knife.

>>46409808
Halfway in my hunter: the vigil campaign. The party started out well but they've spent the last two sessions fumbling in the dark. They have a lot of the pieces on the table but they are not making the right connections; I'll probably have to nudge them in the right direction somehow.

Huh. Girls in my experience are pretty murderhobo.

my current game group is 80% gay women with my girlfriend between all of them. It's an online game. and gf wanted to prevent assumed favorites by not establishing our relationship at all to the others. then they all tried to date her and started fighting over her.

boy were they disappointed when they found out she's not into cuck shit

that, and they'd have to share her with me, and they all semi-hate me for being a gross ass dumb ass GUY

>>46404294
Why in the literal fuck would either of you subject yourselves to that? You can find so many different groups online. There's no reason to settle for a gaggle of lesbians with resentment issues.
>>
>>46404390

we didn't know they were gay until that happened, save for one. and they're all good friends and players. just that they saw fresh meat because, reactionarily from our LAST group who kept accusing my GF of being the GM's favorite, we did that. obviously different tactics should be applied for each case. but that's past history now.

and to be fair. my girlfriend is super cute. super super cute. i don't blame them at all for trying.

It would if anyone bothered to invent it, but it hasn't really occurred to any major character. Using magic to enhance fertility or ensure the inheritance of certain traits is a much hotter area of research.

I have a fucked up leg, received disability for it and everything.

It makes it extremely difficult to walk without aid, or even to stand for extended periods. The worst part of it is the fact that I cannot sit in a chair for longer than a few hour sprints.

I'm going to my first Friday night magic since the accident. I believe they're having a Pre-release, which was at one time my favorite format.

Wish me luck.

Sounds like a win-win to me. You wont get as many magic swords if you level up that way though

My paladin is a vegetarian. She gets violently ill whenever she eats meat!

It seems like the Imperial Guard are the least popular race, and personally my least favorite. Simple design, boring lore, predictable battle strategy and what not.

If there are any Imperial Guard lovers here, tell me, what is it that you like about them. I'm genuinely interested.

They used to be popular when they were overpowered.

They're also pretty interesting because they let you do historical/modern military style scale modeling in 40k, especially with models like FW's EDT and DKoK, or Steel Legion. Tallarn and Vostroyan are also very flavorful.

The rivety WWII style tanks are also charming. Especially the FW ones.

Help me out a bit, /tg/. Recently one of my players retired her fighter due to plot reasons (him getting married and settling down) so she will roll a new one. Again a fighter.

But, this time my player wants her PC to be female, and wants to base her off, well, a character drawn by a Tumblr NSFW artist, down to the clothing style. When I said I woulds give the PC penalties my player said it was okay since "roleplaying is more fun than minmanxing".

I told her I would ask the others what would they think, and much to my chagrin all loved the idea. So, right now I am at a loss about what to do. I am trying to have a Souls-ish game with a darker feel, and I think this character would clash horribly with my plot (which is in part the player's intention). But at the same time I know is really shitty to tell players how to play their PCs.

Thoughts? Would you let it fly?

Based on which artist? For scientific research.

Also - souls games have some dumb-looking characters. Its the atmosphere thats important.

>Split the squadron- Carolina to the lifeboats, Arroschere to the transitory. (Difficulty 25 Test to remain in com contact, Difficulty 25 Test to reunite if contact is lost)
>TEST PASSED

It was crunch time, an opportunity to see if your little squadron could operate divided. An active com contact on one hand, the perfect target for yourself and the Arroschere. The other was a mess of lifeboats, which meant all of the fresh plebeians. There was quite literally no better chance for you to do this.

“Jasper!” you yelled up to the Carolina’s nominal captain. “Get a signal to Arroschere! I need to get aboard!”

After what would eventually become an ensign finished running about, you got transferred back to the Arroschere and hit the gas hard. Down in the Radio Shack, the Signalman got to work hammering his radio rig to the Carolina.

//Arroschere to Carolina, com check, say again, com check over//

//Carolina to Arroschere, reading three by three, over.//

//Arroschere to Carolina, acknowledged, out.//

As you cut through the waves, you grinned madly from the bow. With her tender cut loose, Arroschere flew through the waves, while the Carolina plodded gracefully to the swarm of lifeboats.

//Arroschere to Carolina, com check, over.//

//Carolina to Arroschere, three by three, over.//

//Arroschere to Carolina, you find any good booze, over.//

//Carolina to Arroschere, negative. Still looking though, over.//

Approaching the active signal, you frowned. It was a long, sleek boat, decked out in tons of lights. Slowing your approach, you had to think hard. This ship looked inhabited, by people no less. Time to see how you were going to get into this thing.

“Can radio make contact?” you ask to the messenger on the bridge. He goes down and returns, frowning.

“No, sir.”

Well, crap.

"Excuse me ladies and gents, but there is a a toll for sailing these seas. Someone has to pay for use keeping them free of zombies and undesirables, you know."
