I would use Traveller, its deadly enough and has good gunplay and a fluid turn structure.

I probably wouldn't add fantasy or horror elements, at least not until about halfway through. It could turn into Ravenous - would be cool. People getting superhuman strength and healing abilities from cannibalism... Windigo!

Just run Deadlands if you like crunch, or Deadlands: Reloaded if you like fast playing systems.

Deadlands is my go to game for a long time. Nothing quite matches the appeal of a group of gunslinging Spaghetti Western cowboys vs B Movie Monsters.

Deadlands?

>>52977127

I don't use them at all because I don't like the idea of an all-powerful being having the flaws of mortals.

did Pluto have a one-headed spear and one-headed dog?

My gods are well beyond what any mere mortal could fight directly, but they have rules on what they can do directly to mortal beings, imposed by the two eldest and strongest deities, Lord Fate (god of order) and the Lady (goddess of chaos).

Most of the gods are actually ascended mortals. Every thousand years the gods get together and play what amounts to a giant poker tournament, using portions of their own divine power as collateral and mortals as pawns. Since there is a maximum amount of power that a deity can have (again, imposed by Lord Fate and The Lady), excess power can be invested by a god who has it into mortals so as to create new gods, while it's possible for gods to "go all in" and lose, thereby losing their divinity. As a result the pantheon tends to get shaken up quite a bit every millennia.

The last time I ran a game in my campaign setting it involved this millennial poker match, with Scrylia, the Goddess of Conquest (an ascended mortal who's apotheosis was 2,000 years ago), set against The Lady (with the Lady's chosen pawns being the PCs, of course, while Scrylia's was a conquering warlord and his four generals). Scrylia ended up losing, and having gone "all in" it meant that she was reverted back to her mortal form...which turned out to be a pseudodragon, who managed to make her escape while swearing her revenge.

TL;DR

I'm not sure why you would need a jockey for a centaur, but at least he's a realistic size.

That makes it even better.

Would anyone from SAO make a good companion?

Not going to stop shitposting you know. Record won't stop trying to get it on the drive, people won't stop trying to get him to not.

Using the proper definition of 'waifu':

>waifu
>a fictional character one has genuine romantic feelings for

Waifus would be down to individual taste. The paranoid worriers would probably want someone soothing and trustworthy like Mugi from K-On. The berserkers and warlords would probably want someone mighty as fuck like Mugi from K-On. The intellectuals would probably want someone smart and charismatic like Mugi from K-On. Perfectionists like Fulgrim would want someone perfect in every way like Mugi from K-On. So it all really depends on the individual Primarch.

I imagine Dorn would get on really well with Jenetia Krole. Dedication to duty, humorless, all that stuff. Besides, she's not much of a talker.

Let the elves go. They are a noble people and will repay my kindness to humanity at large.

Bring the elves before the grand patriarch and kill each and everyone of them in his name, use their skulls to decorate my walls, use their bones to make bread, and of course keeping the most beautiful as concorts as a prize of conquest

Robby just wants to be accepted by everyone and not live as a spooky scary skeleton, so he likes to frequent his local gamestore! His three best friends are the only ones who will play with him, but Robby keeps a positive attitude about his unlife and always has a smile on his face.

fuck off
we don't need more cancerous conversation about who is and who is not /tg/'s mascot

His name is Robby. He's an undead, so perhaps you could call him Rotten. And according to his mug, he's Number One.

Fuck off with your normie memes, OP.

There is no conceivable universe where the inquisition wouldn't be controlled by the forces of darkness.

To a degree, certainly. But I think we can all agree that the Imperium's versions of inquisitions are excessive and inefficient. And social reforms would probably be a better way of combating the pernicious forces of the archenemy. I mean, how many of us would sincerely work for Chaos knowing what we do and living with the standard of life we have? And I mean seriously give up our souls to the Chaos gods who we know will probably betray us. And even for the rare soul who would, if their friends, families, neighbors, and colleagues were properly educated they would certainly report them.

If God is the ultimate authority, then an Inquisition is never necessary. By being the ultimate authority, it means God is merely using the forces of darkness to punish the sinful, and therefore, the solution is to further devote oneself to righteousness.

Alternatively you're a papist cuckold and honestly your latin chanting and idols can keep you out of hell.

Bunch of Americans raised a generation of idiots who raised a generation of shits and the idiots didn't want to take responsibility for raising a shitstain generation. Their answer was to find something else to blame. They chose the tabletop games because the previous generation had tried the films they enjoyed as children so that option was closed. Also the sort of children who played D&D were unlikely to complain due to having had meekness beaten into them due to their nations shitty education system to which our own was a close second to in terms of shit. With no one allowed by fox news, among others, to vocally oppose them and only agreeing voices to be heard it all kind of snowballed for a while where everything from AIDs to mass shootings could be blamed on the chosen scapegoat.

But that was just in America.

Over here it was met with a resounding "meh".

only if they give him a symbol better then a skull.
the other gods don't have actual objects for symbols, and neither should he.

Only if he gets a counter part for order

I don't think Malal is very interesting. I don't think it'd add anything useful to the game, and what's more, with GW's increasingly simplified way of looking at the Chaos Gods, Malal would just end up even shitter anyway.
