I like the idea of D20 modern default classes that are oriented on one of 6 attributes.

Consider this for an inspiration:

These actually look quite nice. I'll need to look them over a few times to decide for myself but definitely one possibility. Do you have any experience playing these (the 5e versions)?

>>54528949
No but I'm hoping to give it a try soon. I feel like you will need to make a lot of adjustments if you want it to fit the default 5e gameplay (i.e. any pre-written adventures, pretty high-magic stuff) but on paper they look pretty good.

Official modern d20 (3.0 or 3.5, I forget) had an issue where going Dex hero was almost almost always the mechanically superior choice, unless you wanted to be a total skillmonkey. I don't think it's quite that bad in this homebrew but ymmv.

So the first faction believes in peace through tyranny then?

If I were a god in a pantheon of gods like me, why would I need to create mortals? It's not like I'm lonely in this scenario.

Unless I'm some kind of divine NEET or something. Maybe they stuck me with some job that keeps me apart from divine society, like weaving every single snowflake that falls, or painting all the leaves and flowers.

Don't make up contrived scenarios to have a debate on freedom vs authoritarianism OP, its unsightly. /tg/ will gladly debate the topic at any time.

To answer your question: Anyone who picks authority is either a massive narcissist and assumes they'd be the authority, or deeply distrustful of other's motivations and actions and believes an outside force will solve this.
Freedom is the only choice that makes sense for everyone. Maximizing freedom contains the most benefits for everyone involved.

These guys are the manliest of all the space marine chapters. These guys call themselves the Rainbow Warriors. They don't give a shit about stroking their own ego they just care about killing xenos scum. Also how terrifying would it be to see some marines charge down wearing fucking rainbows on their shoulder. Fuck their blue scheme embrace the colors. Some one in 40k has to. Why not these murder machines?

Also they can literally fuck the Ultramarines

Also they can literally fuck the Ultrasmurfs in the ass. We all want that to happen and these guys would be perfect for it. Their homeworld is fucking prism for emprah sake

He fucks the Slanneshi cultists to death, poisons the Nurgal cultists to death, kills Khornets regularly but with more efficiency and no decapitations, what Tzeentch worshipers?

40k crossover threads are the worst.

They are going to try out lands don't untap on next upkeep now.

Efficient land destruction is reserved for formats where there are lands that are game wining or format warping.

Destroying lands slows the game down, rather than advancing it towards an ending. In a game where everything is based on a gradual accumulation of resources, removing those resources is a mechanic that should not be in the game.

Or you can go with the 4chan explanation of "lol cucks of the coast is shit that's why"

"Master Builder" the unofficial lego movie universe RPG?

Each player starts by constructing their own minifigure, then we give them a few key stats, and some special quirks, or qualities... Players are encouraged to create a communally shared pile of lego pieces from which to build...

Oh, okay, dumb idea regarding the mechanics: players have a chi-pool, like, that mechanic from Legend of the Five Rings? But, instead of being Chi, it is "Studs". Players can conjure up bricks with a number of Studs equal to however many Stud they spend during their action, right? And, of course, all blocks are worth their relative number of Studs to connect together... Like, if you need a 1x4 straight, you pull out 4 studs, and boom, you pull it out of the environment, no problem.

Okay, like, Quirk / Example: Batman has "I only work in Black, or Dark Grey" which lets him draw extra studs of those colors when his action comes around. Something like that?

If Acehld is still around

Would it be feasible to expand upon the Sorcerer Supreme template in the Myth n' Wonder DLC?
A worldwide magocracy modeled in your image effectively running the planet would be cool and unifying.

C'mon anon, let's make a deal

>>54523685
You fucking idiot, the magic users aren't making the items themselves. They are simply enchanting an item that already exists.

If you want the best sword in the game that can smite demons and demigods, then you go to the best blacksmith in the game and have them forge the best sword in the game.

THEN you go to the fucking wizard and have them enchant the shit out of it.

>>54523685
I only know of like two games that have an actual system for crafting. Like I assume you're speaking of DnD/PF but those are hardly rules, its literally just roll over and over and over again.

>>54523685
Anima. Play FUCKING Anima.
Roll a goddamned wall of meat with good Forging and one of the relevant skills to enchant shit(runes and animism are easy for literally any class, Alchemy and Occult are more wizard-ish, but still doable with a bit of investment), make your own weapon, kill supernatural creatures with it, then use their bits as ingredients in the enchanting process.

Humans who are very common and who dominate the world
Humans who live underground and like crafting and beer
Humans who live in the forest and dislike people who invade their forests and who aren't them
Humans who don't want no trouble
Humans who are primitive warlike savages but actually pretty noble and shamanistic
Humans who are half human living in forests and half human who dominates the world, and therefore feels at loss with themselves since they belong to neither
Humans who are the result of a human woman out of the humans who dominate the world getting raped by a barbaric but noble shaman human

remember that human physiology changes quickly (in terms of how long humans have been around) depending on their environment. Within a few thousand generations, we have gone from much smaller, husky, hairy creatures that are extremely strong, but don't move well over long distances, to lankier, less hairy creatures that can literally handle walking thousands of miles a year with little impact on our health. we process a wider variety of food and can handle eatting raw meats occassionally and balance that with a wide variety of vegetation, both leaf like and fruit like, and we have the jaw to support this, having a safe combination of flat grinding teeth and fairly sharp cutting teeth.
we have a skin that changes with the intensity of the sun based on where we live, in just a few generations.

our main adavtage is our brain, however. that is directly tied to advancement in culture. people who have had to deal with more than just survival for anywhere more than a few generations have larger frontal lobes than those without. we are more creative and can find solutions and adapt easier.

First, look, at your environment. Lots of sun- darker skin. Not much sun-lighter skin. Lots of sun with long periods of not much sun-moderate skin. Also, people in cold climates are hairier by nature, and also stockier with larger fat reserves. People in hot environments are lankier with more wiry muscles.
Second, create their culture and decide how advanced they are. If they can grow their food, their teeth will be flatter and made more for veggies. If, due to climate, they cannot grow food, their teeth will be sharper. This will also determine their cranial cavity size.

Finally, determine if there are any magical or scientific influences in their physiology. Setting up shop on top of a ley-line might make their bodies more frail, but capable of great feats of innate magic. nano-bots in the water might help keep your blood clean of toxins.

Homo sapiens were always lanky hairless long distance runners. Neanderthals were the stocky failures, and we raped them to death, actually polluting our superior genes with hairy midget ones

and his back

>>54520812
Looks rad my dude. The sword looks a bit flat, but I'm sure you could fix it with wash + sharp highlights to bring it in line with the quality of the rest of the model.

I wouldn't use exalted since it's made for a rather specific setting and all the concepts that involves.

It really depends on what you want to play. The easiest way to do it would be to play some regular dudes (or heroes) inside the MoM world, in which case any decent non-specific fantasy system will work. If you want to play wizards each controlling an empire, as if every player was an actual player in the real MoM game, then I'd suggest to just play the game instead because it'd be a nightmare to do "right" on tabletop.

>>54520479
The main idea was to play more the heroes working for empire controlling wizards than the wizards themselves, but each of those are still badasses who are capable of taking on several hundred ordinary soldiers at once, if the food calculations for armies are anything to go by. And that's relatively weak heroes at low levels. Higher power guys can and are army eaters.

I got nothing, just wanted to say I really like that game. It and Master of Orion 2 are still my favorite turn-based strategy games.
