What the fuck happened to Chapter Master?
https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Chapter_Master_(game)
Please, I really want this to still be a thing.

Got slammed by GW
Duke tried to redo it under a more generic name but gave up
>>46030840
It was honestly kindy shitty. The UI was terribad and the gameplay was shit.
A good example of "tons of choices, non of which matter, and tons to do but only one thing that works".
If it was given a full, actually funded release it could be alright. I played about an hour of it, it has potential but that's all it had in that sliver of working content.
What is /tg/'s opinion of this game?
I'm looking for more the opinion of MtG and Yu-Gi-Oh players as this game is a blatant knock-off of the two of them combined.
Do you think it's better or worse than MtG or your own tcg?
>>46030355
I'm asking because my playgroup is kind of pushing this game. We've been MtG players for a few years now, and I just started to understand all the modern/legacy stuff going on as we mainly do kitchen table.
I'm just not sure I'm game for adding anther tcg in my budget
>>46030355
Basically I'm asking if this tcg is worth getting into. Does it have it's own merit, or is it animu-bullshit with stolen mechanics?
It's shit, just stick to playing Magic/Yu-Gi-Oh.

Dexter is a sociopath, that's an automatic True Neutral.

Alright /tg/, I decree two challenges
The First! Post lady-knights, we ALL need more lady-knights. Don't like the second challenge? Who cares, post lady-knights
The Second! Justify combat heels in a world that doesn't have horses. I'm thinking something along the lines of imitating digitigrade lizard demons to look scarier?
>>46030092
Ladyknights just so happen to be my fetish.
>Justify combat heels in a world that doesn't have horses
Plateau-like heels can make you look taller. Stilleto heels that are basically the modern equivalent of high heels serve little purpose on the battlefield. In business it can still help you look taller and more intimidating, but board meetings aren't decided by who is the last (wo)man standing.
>>46030288
The problem is more "why would heels have developed" since they first appeared for stirups as I understand
>>46030531
Western heels developed for stirrups, but further east the excuse was "The hems of my fashionably oversized robes keep picking up dirt and mud, and I'm sure as hell not wearing shorter robes."

Rate my first mortheim warband:
Dwarf Treasure Hunters with:
Noble - Dwarf Axe, Shield, light armor, helmet
Slayer - 2x dwarf axe
Engineer - helmet, pistol brace
2x Thunderer - Handgun
1x Beardling - Axe, Shield, Helmet
those are exactly 500 gc btw and I use only minis of the battle of skull pass box without any changes on them

So, /whfb/, what are you currently working on?
Post literally anything you want.
/r/ing dryads and plant women (please no borderline porn)
Hey guys, I would like to discuss a problem with sci-fi settings I find a big downer when it comes to suspense of disbelief.
You see, in the overwhelming majority of settings, the technological advancement in the world is significant when it comes to almost everything safe for the humans themselves.
With the advance of genetic engineering, cybernetics and AI I am pretty sure we'd have creatures unrecognizable by us long before we'd have FTL engines.
In order to have relatable characters, we'd need some tabu over the technological development in some areas.
Thinking about Dune, Star Trek and 40K in that regard.
So, Am I just being weird or some of you find this discrepancy troubling ?
Dune had the Tleilaxu and 40k had all sorts of transhuman stuff
>>46028735
The general thing to do is to just give up trying to have things be science fiction unless the author actually knows what they're talking about. It saves a lot of effort when you just think of 99% of sci-fi as actually fantasy.
>>46028735
In many ways you are likely correct anon, one would have thought that widespread genetic engineering would lead to several human sub-groups. After all it is much cheaper to modify people than it is to terraform a world.
But here's the thing. As a reader player, you have to feel invested in the experience and that means that the world has to be relatable on some level. Make it to alien and people just turn off or don't understand, after all it's much easier to get into the head of Barry Scumbles, asteroid miner with a heart of gold than it is to really understand the life a post human with four eyes, two hearts and the ability to read someones mind instantly.
It also presents a challenge for the writer. After all how do you write about something so far outside of the conventional human experience. Very good writers can present this idea in an understandable way. Read Laline Pauls The Bees for a good example, the Bees in the book are regular garden honeybees, but they live in a gloriously weird theological dictatorship worshiping their queen.
40K writers run the gamut from okay to poor and also the setting is not exactly complex. Star Trek is limited by the budget and make-up department and as for Dune I think FH felt that post humanism wasn't a core theme of his book. In fact the whole point is was refining the 'essence' of the perfect human via Eugenics, rather than by large scale genetic engineering.

Mono-red though, anon. I know purph is the real deal, and goblins can do goblin things, but...mono-red hurts. That struggle being able to answer enchantments is brutal.
Also, I don't think there are an enormous number of great ETB creatures for Feldon to use in mono-red.

Thread's starting out great.
I'm sorry for reposting this in a few editions of the thread I'm just seeking some advice before I pick up some new models.
Can I get some advice on my GOTTAGOFAST Orks list? I'm avoiding artillery and slow units, my only footsloggers being Lootas backfield sniping. I've been thinking of cutting the Grots in favor of shoota boyz to ride in the looted Wagons for some heavy dakka and fire distraction as well as point holding.

I was looking at the Inq tactics on 1d4chan for 7E and I just don't see how this is possible. Yes, the Inq chimera allows 5 models to fire from its top hatch, but shouldn't they be firing at BS1 due to moving?
I can't tell if I'm missing something or if this is just wrong.
