Can a wizard be killed by a farmer with a shotgun, assuming neither has any prep time?
What about TWO farmers with shotguns?
>depends on-
>I prefer-
Stop. These are strict yes-or-no questions. Give me a single correct answer that's true for every conceivable wizard in every conceivable setting.
>>53024849
Yes, assuming the shotgun is pre-loaded.
Maybe, if the shotgun isn't loaded and its one farmer.
Probably, if there are two farmers with unloaded shotguns and the wizard doesn't use an AOE spell.
>>53024849
D&D rules and the like the farmer wins assuming its a level 1 farmer vs a level 1 wizards. You have at best 6-7 HP and im pretty certain a shotgun blast does more than that. In Harry Potter? Wizard assuming they have the faster reflexes otherwise the human wins again. Not sure about any other particular magic universes
>>53024849
Depends on the setting.

This week's Monday Meeting Notes:
http://theonyxpath.com/mayday-monday-meeting-notes/
>Question:
What was your best chronicle of WoD like? What was your worst one?
My best was the Grand Adventures of Stinky Stan
So who is david hill anyways? I see his name on a lot of the books, hell even on the chronicles core book. How long has he been around, and how good of a writer is he?
I remember seeing people mention one of the 20th Anniversary splats sucked balls. Which one was that?
Dark Souls Board game, anyone else got their copy yet?
Game's great fun, takes up an entire afternoon if you let it
I'm starting to think some people are shilling for it
>>53021612
Still haven't received mine.
Did they send an email when they shipped it to you ?
>>53021641
I'll shill all day
>>53021645
Didn't get any emails, just showed up one day. Not the best course of action from Steamforged but at least I have my game
Love 40k's fluff. Tons of resources available to read and videos that explain the lore. Nothing of the sort for AoS. Before the obligatory "read fantasy", I have but I want to get into AoS because I'm a faggot
>>53021204
it's kind of like fantasy but nothing even matters at all, numbers are just arbitrary numbers to sound epic, and anything that happens or ever happened in AoS is essentially irrelevant even to it's own continuity.
Oh and almost forgot to spoil the end: Archaon wins, because what else could happen when he's the 5th Foreverchosen?
I've only read two Sigmar books, but I found them to be decent reads.
The first was Warbeast, which gives an interesting look into how Stormcast deal with their past lives and how it can differ significantly between individual.
The other was Skaven Pestilens. I really enjoyed it, but that's because Seraphon play a big role and.i love Seraphon. But the action is decent and it does give a glimpse into the normal mortal lives of people in Sigmar with the whole Worm City.
The lexicanum has very little on the Age of Sigma stuff, which is sad.
Is it true that there is a sense of liking between the Fandom and the Thousand Sons? And if so,then why? Because of their tragic fall, their feud with the Space Wolves, or just because the Thousand Sons strike a common chord with a lot of 40k fans (lorefags who devour every bit of the text.)
>>53021148
I mean...they look pretty cool
>>53021148
Different people like different things for different reasons.
The examples you gave are all valid and likely align with what many people feel.
>fandom
ugh
What practical and social issues are there for full-body armor/environment suits?
Skin allergy.
>>53018589
The inability to see someone's face is a pretty basic social marker for "HEY, ASSHOLE: DO NOT TRUST ME!" so, there's that.
You know how most people are nervous around police even if they did nothing wrong? Well, that, but a lot more intense.
What could Guilliman be making on Terra?
Super Duper Space Marines? Mini Primarchs?
>>53018006
Mr. Bone's Wild Ride.
>>53018023
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75J1PS5rmZs
>>53018006
Vat grown big marines. Custodes lite, maybe? Something designed to move all the larger SM models GW made and previously planned to use after squatting the setting, Warhammer Fantasy style. Now they've pulled back to merely advancing the story/upping the peril, so they need some new fluff for them.
Where does your character fall?
>>53017930
Where do burgers fit?
I'd be tempted to say SP,IN or even TN, but they do seem to fit the criteria for hardline traditionalist - there's nothing in a burger that wouldn't go in a sandwich individually (though beef might not usually be hot, tomato dressing wouldn't usually be as ketchup-y etc.)

just jamming lots of games with E&T

modern rewards experience over deck selection.
Stormfag here, what would a good sideboard for a typical RU Gifts Storm deck look like? I'm kinda having trouble deciding.
>>53017663
>Modern
>Competitive
Maybe when Tron is banned and real decks can be played instead of aggrocomboshit.
Why are Space Marines so popular? This is not "stop liking what I don’t like". Just curiosity why they overshadow everything.
>>53012673
They're the main characters
The main villains of the setting are evil Space Marines
They're the subject of the majority of the memes
They have a lot of variety in the form of chapters
They're easy to make into "your dudes" and are indeed custom tailored to be good for that
They're an ideal starting point to get into 40k
They have a memorable and easily identifiable aesthetic
They're the pinnacle of the Imperium faction's military might, and the Imperium is the most popular faction- this also plays into the PURGE THE XENOS mentality exhibited in the majority of fans
Reliable and continuous support from GW
Spit acid
Breathe in space
Two hearts
Etc etc
>>53012673
main characters
>>53012673
Pff you kidding me? They don't even have a Blood Bowl team! If you ask me they are very under-represented.
Seeing as this board is full of both raging armor autists and /d/-tier degenerates, I'm sure I'm not the only one here who feels this way.
You ever see a huge, bulky armor and wish you were inside it? Like wearing it must feel amazing? I get that all the time, for all manner of both fantasy and sci-fi armors, as long as they cover everything up. The fuller coverage, the better. The best are those times you can barely even tell a person is supposed to be inside there.
Please tell me it's not just me.
Also, armor thread.
Your fetishes are getting really specific, OP, i'll post armor when i get home.
>>53011961
"Heavy full armor" isn't even that specific?
>>53011904
Armor that has that really snug, enviro-seal, perfectly interlocked feel is amazing. I really, really like power armor.
The more complex the better. Muscle-suits are cool - hydraulic joints are cool - why not one on top of the other? Why not magitek power armor inscribed with runes?
Destiny is really hitting my marks in that regard, though I wish the underlying suit was bulkier, and maybe had some mechanized joints in there.
Magic item thread
Post pictures of items
Give descriptions of items
Talk about neet stuff
>>53007856
I really, really like this gun.
Would Napoleonic warfare even be possible in a fantasy setting? Wouldn't long lines of people with guns not function against magic users?
I don't know, maybe.
>>53007202
Depends on whether or not your army has some mages warding against AoE spells or not.
>>53007202
I mean, if there are magic users in combat they're probably being used like mobile artillery, so other than that things could be just the same.

Thread Question: What was prehistory like in your setting?
Imagine that around the time humans began to organize beyond tribal structures about 10,000 years ago shamans, medicine men, witches, etc. discovered some magical ritual allowing them to travel between caves. You do the ritual in front of a cave in Asia. You pass through the cave entrance into the dark, turn around and walk out. Blammo. Now you're in Africa, Europe, Australia, the Americas. You get the idea.
Obviously, technologies would be quickly disseminated, like the wheel, domesticated animals and crops, metal working eventually. Diseases too, so no more massive borderline extinction events in the Americas. But what about social and cultural ideas? How will those react to near-instant global travel?

To the hill-peoples of the Mecava Belt, it is called the “madness of the gods”. To the sea-peoples of the Jyodwar Archipelago, it is known as “the litany of demons”. And to others, those touched by magick are called “the gods’ chosen”. In any case, it is widely considered to be both a blessing (in the mildest sense of the word) and a terrible curse. Its origins are unfathomable, though myth and religion have provided their own explanations. It is, if not exceedingly rare, at the least not prevalent in most human populations. It is transmitted hereditarily, though often many generations will pass in which no magickal person is born. It emerges in the intermediate stages of adolescence, a little before or a little after the onset of puberty. Immediately following its development, the recipient’s life is irrevocably changed. Vitae, or magickal energy, begins to rush through the body, and, if not stopped, will quickly overflow, resulting in disastrous consequences both for the individual and their surroundings. Some, who do not have the privilege of being taken in by a Magi House or educated by a hedge mage, will either die (usually taking others with them) or become a deformed creature, commonly called witches.
However, even when properly controlled and equipped with a magickal Limiter, the Art is taxing and often dangerous. Even magi who serve in a mostly scholarly capacity suffer greatly reduced lifespans. Additionally, many magi, especially those belonging to the greatest of the great Houses, are employed as soldiers either in the continental wars of their patron state (as all Magi Houses swear fealty to a sovereign master) or in bloody inter-House warfare. Even so, magick offers great benefits. Natural philosophy and medicine have achieved important advances through magickal intervention.

Well ideas and customs would trade hands as much as actual goods would, you might get religions spreading much faster and farther than before think how the internet has altered ideas, instant communication and transportation of ideas and concepts to other cultures at such an early time period would radically alter everything really. Wars , alliances, cross-continental empires and religions etc.
