By actually making them -more- like the romans and the byzantines were than just using their aesthetics and a few titles because they're cool - ironically enough.

>>51840225
For the Greeks: stop treating them as one culture and government. Instead make it a collection of very different small nations with a ton of ideological conflict and some basic areas of overlap (religion for instance) with each other who only come together when threatened from the outside.

Have a good in game reason for them to be dead, and of a similar quality of dead.
Also, make sure your game system can handle the inherent balance differences.

I played a game once where all of the PCs received letters inviting them to this mansion. We spent awhile trying to figure out why we were there, eventually we discovered that the mansion was actually purgatory and that we had all died, once we realized this our DM gave us note cards with what type of undead we were. We had to figure out how we died so that we could move on, little hints were hidden all throughout the mansion, a beheaded doll, a burning drawing of a house, a mouse hanging by its neck, etc etc

Favorite of all times are cyberlimbs.
They're not very useful unless you have a truckload of money to make them at max attributes.
But I just like the fact that they can look like anything, making them look unique for the character is pretty cool.

I think the simplest option would could just be summarised with "give them more stuff to do in the current stories", maybe underlined a few times.

start by giving them unique units
then develop said units and their ramifications inside the chapter
finally give them personal agendas to pursue

Iron Hands would be EZ. Give them shit to do with the Mechanicus. Maybe Salamanders too because of dat craftsmanship aesthetic.

http://www.songofswords.net/
Song of Swords is a a tabletop RPG centered around realistic medieval fightan' with a ludicrous variety of weapons and fighting styles, centered around a dice pool system. It's currently in beta, and can be used for both fantasy and historical games. Kickstarter is happening NOW we are kicking ass baby!
Call of the Void: Ballad of the Laser Whales is a pulpy sci-fi tabletop RPG about fighting space-nazis and hunting giant whales with harpoons made out of the moon. Its combat system is more modern, based in the early 20th century, but can probably handle combat up to the present day.
MEGA folder containing current version of the game and all supplementary materials.
Note that the latest version of the game is v1.9.9 but with additional supplements. It's NOT what's currently on Opaque's website, because Jimmy is Jimmy.

Submitting my tournament character for lore review before I build him.
An Orredin nobleman who, long ago, was a high up in the Imperial army. He commanded, led, advised the Emperor, and was generally a pretty fucking big deal. However, following his retirement, he spent literally centuries throwing debauched orgies and absurd tournaments. By the time he was approached with a request to back a coup against the Emperor, he had forgotten most of the things that had made him valuable to the Empire in the first place. When the coup failed he was shoved off in a pointless position that would never support his way of life. Now (relatively) impoverished and having forgotten most of the things he made his fortune with in the first place, he has done the unthinkable and left Helion to remake his fortune. As it turns out, this involves hand to hand combat in the arena. Oh, well. He fought once, he can fight again.

Allow me to say right now.
You can NEVER plan against the players. They will always, without fail, fuck you over somehow. Let the spell be cast, then take over at the last second, etc.
Simplest way? The effect only applies to royal blood. Then make sure the PCs never get ahold of any royal blood. Even literal royal blood. Shit, even this idea can get fucked over.

As in some times it makes a dud and eats all the people anyways. Once the book is made, it's good to go as long as you follow it.
I'm thinking maybe it just kills the guy who casts it and replaces him with an artificial life form that looks like him

Hey /wip/ trying to make a napoleonic style regiment of IG, here's a list of the parts I'm using thus far but there are a couple of them that I'm not especially happy with
Head
http://kirtongames.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=64_160&product_id=1181
Body
http://kirtongames.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=64_160&product_id=1178
Arms
http://victoriaminiatures.highwire.com/product/dress-uniform-arms-resin
Legs
http://victoriaminiatures.highwire.com/product/victorian-legs-standing
I love the parts from Kirton Games but the arms/weapons aren't quite what I want as I wanted a more 'retrofuturistic musket' feel and the legs are far too expensive for a unit as numerous as Imperial Guard infantry. Seriously, dafuq Victoria Miniatures?
I've tried buying standard GW cadian legs elsewhere and just filing the pockets off but can't find an affordable bitz store with them in stock, any suggestions for alternative weapons/legs or ways to convert them?
pic related is pretty close to what I want them to look like

Oh fuck wrong pic
on topic tho:
how much bookkeeping is too much?
In my skirmish game every character has a stat that is both resource max and hp. Is is too much?
>>
How would you make a game about supporting a village with downtime activities in a fantasy RPG? Just curious how others would approach the issue.
>>
>>51825360
>how much bookkeeping is too much?
Anything I need to keep in my head between turns.
Charging in D&D 3.5? Fuck it. i don't want to track -2 to AC until next turn. Something like Combat Expertise is okay because the character shuold be used to remembering that. But -2 to AC? Replace it with an AoO at -4, for example. Try to keep ongoing damage and conditions to a minimum. Have them resolve instantly or at least be represented by something on a miniature. That was what pissed me off about 4e D&D, personally.
> In my skirmish game every character has a stat that is both resource max and hp. Is is too much?
Out of context I have no clue what the fuck that even means, but no. Although if your skirmish game has more than 10 combatants at a time, I'd suggest using a token-based health system (like D&D's miniatures game rounded HP totals to 5 and represented, for example, 20 hp with 4 coins on the creature's stat card). Or just a flat Toughness value that must be exceeded on the damage roll to eliminate the creature.

You run out of "room" to remember shit so you need to forget something to learn/remember something new.

Limited practical memory storage. Gods have beefs with you over shit you forgot eons ago.
