No. And I don't like my player's doing it either. One of them brings his alcoholic dad and he got pretty hammered once or twice and it was pretty annoying. I can't imagine it improving any of my player's ability to game or enjoy the game. We have enough problems focusing as is.

>>54564989
Anon, Dragons don't have breasts...

There's a sweet-spot to drinking while gaming. Drink too much, and you can't focus. It's a shitty time for everyone. Drink too little, and you don't have as good of a time. Drink juuuussssst enough, and you both play better and have a better time. I've found that to be roughly 2-3 drinks over an average 6 hour session for me. Not enough to impair me at all, but just enough to get that savant-buzz going.

Horde armies are really good right now. Orks, Tyranids, Guard. Guard are probably the best since they have the best shooting.

The worst is probably Tau right now. They got nerfed hard and they'll need an actual codex quick to keep playing.

>>54564956
Orks are pretty mediocre other than their blobs of 30 boyz though.

>>54564956
Could guard be tied with tyranids since genestealer cults or do the rules differ between cults and guard? Like for the tanks and stuff

Inspired by glass snakes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_lizard), you could have a large reptile monster whose limbs explode into shrapnel when damaged too much.

What about that lizard that shoots blood out of its eyes?

A lizard capable of running on water.

An underwater crab or clawed shrimp creature capable of creating a powerful stunning shockwave with it's claw.

Canada goose but fire-breathing?

I'm just gonna be 'that guy', but why are the Dwarves so...'racially' diverse?
In the sense that, if in' they lived in some secluded fortress, wouldn't they be more ethnically unified in appearance n' so forth?

Where are all these dark skinned Dwarves coming from, exactly??

>>54564084
You're being that guy, anon. Stop being that guy.

>You're being that guy, anon. Stop being that guy.

I didn't think I'd be the first and only poster!! Of course it looks bad when the only guy is "that guy" !!!!

I think he did that because he was trying to conquer the galaxy, and THEN do the whole fast evolution thing. It makes sense if you assume he will lock everything up tight until all these deadly xenos are gone, then open the floodgates to knowledge of the Warp and psychic powers and stuff, when you can do so safely in a conquered galaxy.

He just never got around to it because, you know, Horus.

>>54563787
Step 1: Conquer galaxy.
Step 2: Get humanity into webway where Warp and Chaos can't get at them because he's built a human webway.
Step 3: Humanity evolves into psychic race in the reasonably safe areas there instead of the shitshow in the main galaxy.

>>54563878

No that's stupid, just teach your legions how to explode into daemons and spawn while you're trying to fight a galactic war, it'll all work itself out for sure. - OP

>Wanting to learn how to broaden GM stuff

Ah well I suggest

>I'm interested in L5R

...ooof

Essentially just get familiar with the core dice system. People are going to have a good time so long as you are able to keep the game moving. It's better to dgaf and make up a roll than to keep on slowing the game down w/ research.

Save that for after, when you get an idea of what things come up a lot.

Bonus points for encouraging players to get the book themselves to read up on the super special stuff they want to do.

>>54563931
If you have a suggestion for something else lay it on me my man, L5R is just the one that most recently caught my eye.

Gurps is good.

Once you learn it you don't have to buy an rpg ever again.

It only uses d6's.

And is far simplier than the memes sugest

The Watchers in the Dark are actually a forgotten race of prehistoric Space Marines who were much smaller than the current Astartes. However, they were replaced when the current Space Marines were introduced, who were larger and more well proportioned. Now, once again, history is repeating itself with the arrival of Primaris.

When will they learn?

Just give the kid heroin. It's cheaper and less addictive.

>>54562897
No they'll just end up bitter and depressed when this dying hobby finally gives up the ghost.

>>54562897
looks like they might be using a single water cup for all the paint and that's a fucking travesty

Almost done with my Harlequins list, just need some advice for finishing touches:

1 Troupe Master - Embrace, Fusion - 73
1 Solitaire - 117
2 Death Jester - 150
8 Harlequins - Embrace, Fusion - 232
8 Harlequins - Embrace, Fusion - 232
6 Skyweavers - Zephyrglaive - 264
1 Starweaver - 99
EMBARKED
1 Shadowseer - 134
5 Harlequins - Fusion - 120
1 Starweaver - 99
EMBARKED
1 Shadowseer - 134
5 Harlequins - Fusion - 120

This comes to 1774 points. Do I throw in 7 more kitted out clowns, or do I throw in another Starweaver with 5 Harlies and fusion pistols? Either way I'm gonna have ~10 points leftover.

for the 7th to 8th edition buttblasted:

Also has anyone else run this yet? i saw that the guy on twitter fucked that one up. and that quest looked like it died real quick.

Look up Perils of the Warp for Dark Heresy and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2e. Real fun charts and systems to describe dangerous casting.

might i also post some things i added to my game from the base idea they had in those threads

a new faction. these sort of demon killer terrorists. regardless of wether you're doing military tactics or residential these guys could make for a good threat. They hate all forms of the demons but ESPECIALLY hate all the mages and Gov'ment using the demons. i liked the idea of them brutally killing the mages and whatnot, making them irredeemably bad guys. the aesthetic they've got doesnt help either.

When looking at the favored class for half-elves it says "Oracle: Select one revelation normally usable a number of times per day equal to 3 + the oracle’s Charisma modifier. Add 1/2 to the number of uses per day of that revelation."

What does this mean?

Also what's the best class to play a debuff based necromancer?

how come even an extremely optimized, borderline cheated blaster cannot win in a damage race against a martial that has a couple attacks and pounce

>>54562355
It means that you get an extra use for every second level where you take that FCB

who is this imposter

when is the stream starting? Converting to australian time is confusing.

>>54562379
5-10 minutes depending on how many times they fuck up stream settings

The scariest thing we found was a bridge between the material plane and a realm called the Other Side in our setting.

Horrible entities were spilling out from the Other Side and corrupting the terrain itself and their influence was starting to spread to the surface. When we arrived, there were these tendrils reaching out of the black void that grabbed our Rogue and pulled him in. We never saw him again.

>>54562222
can't argue with quads I guess

Anybody know of any good premade dungeons buried below a cemetary?
Looking for multi-level catacombs

I don't know how you did it, but you made a map done in paint look pretty respectable.

In regards to suggestions, what type of suggestions do you want?

>>54562067
Practice. Start with the coastline, then do mountains and rivers. Remember that rivers typically bleed out of high ground, pool in low ground, and delta before reaching the ocean, but those are more of suggestions than hard rules, even in nature. Also it's fantasy so it doesn't need to make perfect geographical sense, and is sometimes better when there are features which are starkly unnatural. Anyway, after rivers you do the forest, which can be somewhat random, and fill in the rest with plains. Add some marshes here and there, keeping in mind that a marsh is drain/filter point for pooled water and is often associated with forests and rivers. I added a Faetouched area and a Corrupted area in two of the woods.

Mostly I'd like suggestions on what to fill-in the whitespace on the land with. I don't want the whole place to feel too interchangable or samey.

The area within the mountains that is coloured-in is about 150 miles across, btw.

>>54562021
This is great. Are you actually using paint or some shit? You have talent.

The fact your thread isn't flooded with comments is because /tg/ can't criticize your work, which means its great. Good job OP.
