Anybody excited about purging the Xenos in Stellaris
>>46096063
Yes but not so bad that I'll pay full price. Probably will wait a good year or so after for a good discount
>>46096063
No, I'm looking forward to making peaceful, mutually beneficial alliances with them.
>>46096123
You might not even have to wait that long. Paradox love their sales. It'll probably be 25%-50% off during the summer steam sales, and 50%-75% during the Halloween ones.
(or attempting to at the very least)

You truly are an unpretentious man. There’s not much you want in life, nor much you need.
But you do regard your free time as sacred. Especially after a long, exhausting day at work, nothing sounds more horrible to you than having to deal with other fellow humans.
Now, it’s easy to misunderstand, since you’ve very rarely declined offers by your colleagues to go out drinking together. But that’s something else entirely: your acceptance to the proposal of getting hammered together on Saturdays is conditional...

Can people truly blame you, then, for repeatedly bashing in the head of the shady character who happened to enter your room through your computer?
Surely not. Due punishment is to be expected if one is to violate another person’s private property, and in this case, the violation is multiple. Not only did this weird woman enter your apartment uninvited, she also did so during your precious resting time.
Honestly, what was she expecting?
You’ve laid her on your bed, and you proceeded to call the police,...

Fancy dresser that you can't really put right next to anything or it'll look silly. Possibly WIP, looks like it might want some more oil.

You are trudging through the snow as the wind howls all around you. All around you is a white landscape. The terrain itself is treacherous: the snow hides crevasses and pitfalls in the ice beneath. You've lost count of the number of times one of your party has almost fallen into one.
“How much further is it?” Ebonsongs voice floats up to you from further back.
“Are we nearly there yet?” Nicolvren adds in a sing-song voice, followed by an outraged yell from Ebonsong.

After a time you start to hear echoing noises in the tunnels ahead. A Succubus scouts ahead and returns to tell you there is a nest of dozens of the monsters ahead.
“As soon as we start killing its minions the Killing Frost will probably notice” comments the Azure Empress “well, we're lucky to get this close without being, might as well go in loud and fast.”
“Or we could sneak past” counters Sofia “without killing a bunch of ice snakes.”
“They're not snakes” says Isla “many believe that they are a type of dragon.”

You are Tsukuda Ryouta, a Shinigami of the 12th Division with the unique position of an investigator of abnormal occurrences.
Your Division Captain, Urahara Kisuke, has just given you a little sister. The next thing he's asked you is to lead him to your house, so you do. The little sister in question, a short girl named Miyu, with white hair and golden eyes, keeps staring at you without even a hint of expressiveness.
You take the two to your house.
Needless to say, when the nature of your strange company has been comprehended fully, your mother expresses all the surprise that you weren't able to. Shiori's eyes dart back and forth between the little girl and the Captain of a Division, her small mouth agape in shock. You were expecting only the Captain to have been a subject of wonder, as he is, after all, one of the most powerful men in the Seireitei, and yet it seems that even the plain-clothed Miyu has somehow earned an equal amount of dubiousness.
"Uh... Ryouta-kun?" She mutters your name when some semblance of composure finally returns. Even so, it sounds more like a desperate plea. Unfortunately, you can't explain the situation to her. You don't know what's going on, either.
The young woman clears her throat and pats at her unkempt hair a few times. "You should have written that you were coming with... guests, Ryouta. I would have prepared a more suitable welcome."
Urahara waves his hand, smiling politely. "No, no, there is no need for that, ma'am. I apologize for arriving so suddenly. I am the Captain of the 12th Division, Urahara Kisuke. There is something I would like to discuss with you and Ryouta-kun."
"...Well, please, come on in." Shiori steps away from the doorway, allowing the strange guests inside. She tugs at your sleeve once the others get a little farther ahead, flashing you the dumbfounded expression she was originally caught with at the entrance, but you can only shrug in reply.

Tea has been served along with rice cakes. Awkward small talk continues between the Captain and your mother. The little girl, meekly sitting next to you, goes through her rice cakes rather quickly, without having touched her drink.
"They go down easier with tea." You offer some advice, pushing your share of the snacks closer to her. She takes a moment to carefully examine you and the rice cakes you're offering, and after a nod, Miyu nibbles on a cracker and then takes a sip of her tea. The pale...

Welp, so much for keeping our mother out of this.
Also good to see you here, Mushroom! You doing okay?
>>46094554
Dick move Urahara, especially because eavesdropping on a Captain seems largely futile. Unless it's a test or something? Whatever
>Show Miyu around the house.
More specifically show her the books, find one that doesnt seem too challenging for her.
Our party will be a bunch of girls who all made very pretty glass cannon characters, which are sure to be smashed to bits in the first dust-up. They have no concept of team strategy or battle tactics. I have played other RPGs but have never played Pathfinder, and I haven't a clue what to make, let alone what to do. DM has explained that no Pun-Puns are Allowed. So I don't just need a character but also need recommendations on style of play. Please help.
>>46094169
Yeah, I was in a party of glass cannons in my last PF game. I made a Plant Oracle for support, took the Spirit Guide archetype to grab the Life Spirit. Did a lot of life-linking, mass cures, mass buff spells. Was able to turn into a Treant or Sagauroi with Plant Shape for extra con and nat armor. Very tanky, had AC 40 something, had a high con and hp to absorb damage through Life Link, or whatever that life mystery power was called.
Breath of Life is great. Learn it as soon as possible.

oh, I should also mention area of effect crowd control type stuff. Stinking Cloud, Web, Wall of Thorns, Wall of Stone, Slow, Cloud Kill, Black Tentacles, etc. At higher levels you want Primsatic Sphere or Prismatic Wall. You might fuck over some of the glass cannons with this stuff, but you'll keep them alive. Hopefully they aren't pissy about it.
OP here, I forgot to mention that our party is probably going to be level 3. Can I still do all that?
Would you say that sneaking out in the middle of the night without telling your party, finding a contract killer, hiring yourself out as an assassin, taking a job, murdering some random noble that you were assigned to kill and then hiding from the law enforcement would justify having your alignment changed to chaotic evil?
That's chaotic neutral, or neutral evil depending on why they did it.
Chaotic evil would be torturing the guy before you killed him.
>>46094161
Did they abide by the contract? Lawful Evil at WORST, but you could justify any non-good, non-chaotic alignment. I don't even understand why this would be chaotic. Unless it's implying that a Lawful Evil character would hand themselves in when they committed a crime, which is obviously retarded.
Even if it is chaotic evil, that sounds well-thought-out enough to basically justify it. Chaotic Evil is only really that bad when used as an excuse to impede the fun of the game, and it sounds like you're doing something relatively interesting.
ITT how does a new person get involved with Warham 4K? I hear about it and want to learn more.
War Ham somewhat related.

Don't.

Mortgage your house or start cooking meth.

Start with Hogs of War.
It's on Steam, even.
We haven't had one in a while, so let me pull out the late night whiskey, drop some crumpled cigarette packs on the table, brew another pot of coffee, and summon the writefags.

Also, does anyone have the cap that went something like "write your first story, realize it sucks and write your second story, realize it sucks, write your third story. Tear it up and stop writing for three months. write your fourth story in a burst of inspiration than destroy it in drunken editting. Return to your first story, rediscovering everything that was great in it. Edit and rewrite it into your fifth story. Get bored and drunk, start writing terrible smut for yourself, get engrossed in it and flesh it out into a sixth story. Wake up the next morning, edit like a mad man and you finally have a story worth sending out for publication"

>>What are you working on?
Working on that one book I "finished" two years ago. Changed the setting, which doesn't affect the story much, but the means of transportation and especially the weapons. Tonight I will try to write a fight scene I have to remake completely because the weaponry for those characters differs a lot and just changing out names and descriptions won't suffice. This is also a chance, those fights never pleased me so much. Pic related, it...

The stereotypical dwarf weapons are axes and hammers. For elves, it's bows and swords. What is it for humans, halflings, and gnomes?
>>46093440
>humans
All of them, because humans don't overspeicalize.
>halflings
Spears and slings, to stab tall things and to get crits on giants.
>gnomes
Blowpipes and 'improvised.'
humans are generally depicted with either swords (for heroes) or spears (for mooks).
the most (only) famous halflings in media are the hobbits in LotR, who mostly use shortswords, but are also famous for throwing rocks.
no one cares about gnomes.
How about Orcs, Trolls, and Goblins?
How do you stat an estoc?
>>46093062
Eh, just put it in the Swords category.
Aren't those less of a sword and more of a very long stiletto?
Probably the same statistics as a rapier in any systems that aren't exactingly simulationist.
Damage: 75
Durability: 150
Weight: 3.0
Stats needed: Str 10, Dex 12
Let's make a chapter!I saw another anon make a thread involving his dides he made, so I want to as well.

Normally, you're not really one for funerals. Too bleak, too much of a reminder of what awaits you.
Now, though, you're not doing this for yourself. This is for the Mentor, and the old friend that he lost. Garl Yamada, Wanderer, teacher at the Nameless Temple and priest of Titanos. He was a man people respected by many, yet liked by few. You never really had the chance to decide how you felt about him – and now you never will. A shame, perhaps.
There were a few things you needed to get out of the way before leaving – you bathed, shaved and otherwise made yourself presentable – but other than that, you hit the road as soon as possible. With the bandage around your missing eye replaced by a patch of fabric in dignified black – the same solemn colour as the band around your arm – you make for a dashing figure. That's what Howa said, at least, as she was seeing you off.
It's strange. Not an hour into your journey, and you start to feel a longing desire to turn back, to return to the Nameless Temple. Even when you push the urge away, it lingers – lurking in the back of your mind all the way to Foothills.

When you were last here, the town was a blasted place – hammered by storms and rocks falling from the mountains above. Things have improved since then, the worst of the damage repaired and tidied away, but the mood is a dark one. Before, the town had the air of one under siege, the residents drawing together to share the worst of the burden. Now, though, that community spirit has vanished. The few townsfolk you see walking the streets pause as you pass them by, studying you with mingled worry and suspicion....
