OC. my boy Torrik

None of those are mutually exclusive. You'll likely get land along with your knighthood. You will get land and riches with a duchy. And you will almost certainly get a title if you marry a princess.

>>52757148
Marry into the royal family of course.

>riches automatic
>land automatic
>be named a knight if I wish

>>52757148

Really depends on how settled my character is, and if they're ready to retire from adventuring.

Toss up between riches and land.

If you knew it was possible and chose to do something anyway, no.

If the DM magical realm'd you, fucking run.

Depends on the context. It's hardly out of the ordinary for a Lunar Exalted or Transhuman sci-fi campaign.

Depends.

On the one hand, I'm pretty sure that's what they were going for.

On the other hand, that doesn't mean it necessarily makes for a good story, so I agree.

That is the whole point of the universe.


The losses, the gains and the stakes are so high that it makes it seem illogical they can take it so easily and so lightly to lose a solar system, a fleet or an army.

It shows the dark nature of the universe. It says "Lives are worthless, all who enter despair and stare into the dying light" and sets the universe up for it's whole point: Shit is, has, continues to be (and will be) fucked.

It also provides a large enough universe to have the space to allow players to make their own armies and shit for the table top game. Along with leaving the writers and game makers to never worry about them writing the universe into a corner. Since they can say that shit is fucked and nothing has changed, they can do that as much as they want.

Still, it could be done better. They really need to get the numbers a bit closer to what would be possible and needed...

Are black crusades, huge WAAAGHs and tyranid fleets not real enough?

There is Finnish fairy tale novel with a pixie who loses her wings and a small troll. Animals and to a degree planta talk but otherwise act like they would naturally do.

Everyone else except frogs who are on verge of civil war over academic debate about whether they are evolved from lizards or human.

Sprites are fun little bastards. Too small to effectively swing a sword at, into magic, into poisons, fey sense of humor. Could imagine a good adventure or even setting around them.

I've been wanting to do a game where everyone plays a little mushroom folk. I've got a guidebook of all different kinds, but I just don't know how I'd go about making a game out of it.

About to start my Ork gang with just about my favourite model in the Ork line.

A little worried about the WYSIWYG aspect as he'll have a power claw modeled... or maybe I could magnetize it... but magnetizing pewter tho... not sure.

Played the hit and run mission today, I was attacking and my friend was defending. He rolled high and I rolled low for models coming in, so he had his entire army on the board whilst I only had half of my guys. We deploy and he gets first turn and shoots my leader off the board before I can even do anything. I have to take down one of his guys but there's no way to get into charge range without first stopping in the open and taking shots from all of his guys. I'm running dark eldar so I've only got pistols, so that's no help.

What am I meant to have done? I feel like it only takes a couple of bad rolls for me to have basically no control of the outcome of the game.

first, add more terrain

second, keep in mind that this game seems to be aimed at churning out campaigns in a single day of gaming

some matches will not go well for you, just shrug it off and get on to the next mission

>There is said to be a cave with strange paintings on the wall.
>This was done by a famous martial artist who, consumed with sorrow, sought to end his days in drunken stupor in the cave having given up all of his wealthy in exchange for wine.
>In his lat moments of drunken insanity he was thought to have gained a moment of enlightenment and drew the painting before dying drinking a special wine derived from the cave water.
>Now disciples make prilgramage to the cave to brew their own magic wine to help them draw wisdom from the paiting and gain power.
