You're more than willing to present the Sunish faithful's offerings to Tengr, but if it's going to be done, you're determined to do it right; the offerings must be made at Tengr's shrine.
It's a long journey and taking them from the village without warning would almost certainly squander all the goodwill you've built until now, so instead, you go to Barmak and ask the new chief to join you all in the small pilgrimage. He immediately refuses however and even makes it clear that the Sunish clansmen are not allowed to leave. They can hold...

It's frustrating to have to give up on the idea of instructing the Sunish on the worship of Tengr and the other gods of the Wild, as you're well aware of the societal bond that could easily form between your people, but you know the risk is too great and angering Barmak would only harm you in the long-term. You gently let down the disappointed young men and women, who grumble, but return to their homes. With winter soon coming however, you don't have any time to try a different approach and you're...

Hello RWB
The question hangs heavy between you.
It's a pretty good damned question.
“... Graf Spee,” you say quietly. “The heavy cruiser they named after him. She got screwed over in almost the same damn spot, by the same enemy.” You shake your head. “That was always one of my favorite ships when I was growing up... dunno why, just had a soft spot for her. Liked the concept - pocket battleship, eleven inch guns - even the way she waged that final battle, three against one. That twist of fate...” you sigh. “Maybe it was too much.”
“Fate,”...

FIRST
“What are the chances?” Hate asks you. “An obsolete, worn-out ship - smaller than modern examples of her class, even - showing up at the last second to launch a defiant torpedo attack? Christ, skipper, most ships don't even *carry* twenty-one inch tubes anymore - anywhere. Really... what were the chances?”
You bite your lip, not sure how to answer that.
“... I'm sorry, by the way.”
“... what did you just say?” you ask, not quite sure you heard right.
“I'm apologizing, fuckface,” Hate replies with a little heat....

“I wanted back into the fight,” Hate continues. “Wanted back in to finish what I started. To be what I'm meant to be. That part, I can get.” He looks down at Tenryuu - the gauze over eyes is wet, and she seems to be shivering a little - weeping in her sleep. “But these... *things,*” he mutters, the word dripping from his lips with disgust, “aren't interested in that. I'm not just a Marine. I'm a United States Marine. I'm supposed to die defending everything good and just in this world. But abyssals, they've got power, and they just...

“How'd you get burned, anyway?”
You look down at the young man who's carefully re-wrapping your arms loosely with gauze, the fresh coat of antiseptic ointment still cool on your skin. You fix the poor orderly with a cold, flat stare.
“I hugged the flaming ghost-corpse of my dead Executive Officer in a nightmare.”
The young man pauses mid-wrapping, his face splitting into a grin. “Duuude, SPOOKY!” His tone rings with frank approval.
Despite everything, you can't help but laugh. “Yeah, I suppose so.”
The nurse finishes wrapping your arms. “Okay, move about.” You oblige. “Yeah, that should stay for today.” He tidies up as you shrug your khaki shirt back on, relieved to find your shirtsleeves are no longer rubbing your tender, reddened skin too much. “Your chart says you're on Vicodin. You take that yet today?”
You nod - after spending the night duct-taped to a folding table in the CIC, you were in no shape to forgo them. “I'll get used to it in a few days, I guess.”
“Should clear up in a week,” the nurse assures you. He claps you on the shoulder, and hustles off - you've no doubt he's got his hands full. The C-5 that returned your girls from Java also bore some of the worst-injured men from the second battle of Sunda Strait; some were sent directly to the best hospitals in Japan via helicopter airlift, and some ended up here. Your sleep - if you could call it that - came late, after an hour or so of sniggering, snarling and muttered maledictions as Goto wrapped up the battle in your stead, managing the retreat.
After waking up and hoarsely demanding that someone cut you loose from the goddamn table, you'd had just enough time to hit your apartment for painkillers, a bananna and a fresh outfit before racing to Yokota to meet the incoming C-5. Stretcher after stretcher had been borne out first, quiet, sedated men swaddled in gauze being rushed to waiting choppers. Then had come your warriors, quiet and withdrawn, and lastly, lurking in the shadowed back of the cavernous aircraft, huddled over her silent charge...
Naka.
Your phone buzzes insistently. Slipping it from your pocket, you see Goto's name flashing at the top of the screen, followed by his missive -
“HELP.”
You contemplate that thoughtfully, then type out an interrogative.
“Kongou or Essex?”
Bzzzzz. “YES.”
You chuckle despite yourself.

Oh god, what fresh hell is this? Better stop the meme-boat from causing another international incident.

Hmmmmm...
Let's go for FULL MEDICAL HORROR.

Let's do some worldbuilding exercises using Earths' ruddy neighbour planet. No rules, if you want to do hard sci-fi or fantasy, go for it.
Here's a starting point: Humans travel to Mars and build a city on the surface. They start to dig down into the planet, and discover something unexpected.
What do they find? What changes because of it?
I'll post some of my own stuff if nobody else is interested. Let's have some fun.

I'm very interested in your suggestion anon, feel free to go into more detail.
My PCs have recently become the unwilling servants of an ancient green dragon. They slaughtered his kobold and lizardfolk servants after they were attacking their colony on this new land. They stumbled into his chamber and he now sees them as part of his horde and his property to do with as he wishes. He is now sending them to go kill a rival red dragon in the mountains. If they just leave he will torch their colony and they will be left forever on this unknown continent alone. Now the question I want to ask is.
How generous would he be with his own horde of treasures...

I would think it would depend on his personality and how much he wants the rival confirmed dead.
if he thinks the party able to kill a dragon on their own why wouldn't immediately attempt to kill them himself, to circumvent the risk of them turning on him?
If he gives them magical items in order to facilitate killing the other dragon, what would stop them from using them on himself?
If he doesn't give them enough power to kill the rival, he'll simply be giving him a snack and...

He sees this dragon as a trivial chore and below him.
He himself is an ancient dragon very powerful.
This is a young upstart at best young/adult red dragon.
He tested them with a hydra to gauge their power before they entered his chamber and has a feel for their abilities and has planned for them attacking him.
Why not guarantee a kill on this rival dragon by giving them just enough power to confirm it but not hurt him.
Your second question is a good one for if they do succeed...

>failing to capture Cadia twelve times in a row and making everyone think he was a failure is all part of Abaddon's master plan :^)
Will GW drop this stupid bullshit already and retroactively throw some meaningful victories at Abaddon's feet so that he can be at least half the badass Archaon is?
>>46195620
The very fact that he's taken ten thousand years to capture a single system is pretty impressive. Not even Terra, just Cadia. I can only imagine it will take him another 40,000 years to go from Cadia to Terra.
>>46195761
Which of course will be long after Ghazghkull's WAAAGH united all of the Orks, all of the Necron tombworlds were awoken, and the Tyranid main fleet arrived.
It's going to be kind of hard for GW to shoehorn "Chaos always wins" into this one.
No because if they try to make someone effective he literally becomes
AND DEN HE BLEW UP DAH WORLD AND BECAME LIKE A GOD HE IS 2 COOL 4 DA CHAOS GODS NOW
