Okay I have no idea what I'm doing. How do I fix this? http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/the-absolute-hazoret-jank/

Play Neheb 2.0 instead and actually have fun?
Seriously though, Hazoret is terrible and really hindered by not having access to B for mass discard.

>>54496535

Been said before.

Eisenhorn trilogy with Liam Neeson as lead.


Good film for fans, and plebs can probably understand it enough as a jumping in point.

>>54496535
creating new characters mary suish enough to survive multiple movies in 40k is bad
adapting existing stories will result in nerd rage and disappointment
creating new stories with already existing characters is fanfiction tier

the cinematic universe will need to be formed by roughly independent stories and characters
actual events and characters in the background will have to be mentioned or somehow visible "as if happening in another room, but visible through the glass"
the plots for the various films must not have consequences, even just potential ones, as far as the main narrative of the setting is concerned
bad ends are a very valid option

>>54496535
I don't know what it's got to be about, I'd probably just adapt a Space Marine story, but it has to be entirely animated.

>>54496383
Yes, but you have to have non-cringeworthy people roleplay it.

In other words, not on /tg/.

No, it is literally impossible. It's never been done and it will never be done. That is an immutable fact of life. Now go away.

Yes, you can if the romance is tragic.
Happy endings are for faggots.

>>54496319
Tyranids, assuming they're metal of course.

>>54496319
The Tyrannids bounce towards the other toys. They raise their bonespitters that convulse to unleash their deadly payloads... and nothing comes out. They raise their razor sharp claws to rend flesh from bone... and they bounce off of the plastic hides of the other toys.

Then Buzz punches the Hive Tyrant, and the superglue holding it together fails and its head falls off.

>>54496816
This is the correct answer. Even though they are supernaturally sentient, they still abide by the limitations and physics of our world.

Sell it.

>>54496161
I fiddle with it in an attempt to figure out what the puzzle is. Even though I have 6 int.

>there'll probably be at least 3 girls

how many people will attend this session then?

>>54496147

Other than myself, probably 6-8 people (I'm assuming 1-2 will bail with short notice. Can't trust these fucks).

>>54495780
Search the stone wall for secret doors.

Turn 360 and walk away

Seems like an as good a time as any to retire permanently.

As good a reminder as any of the benefits of anal.

Generally played by special snowflakes who need an excuse to have special powers or be better than everyone without actually working for it at all. Would not allow as a playable race in any of my games, except for maybe in the case of Draconic Sorcerer, and even then you just get the benefits of the class itself, not an entirely separate race.

>>54495151
Aren't a lot of them completely indifferent to humanity?

>>54495202
Yes but like three aren't I think. Let's just say that for some reason your PC has to worship one, which would it be?

>>54495151
Basically all of them aside from Nyarlathotep, yes

I think I saved all of us from having to reroll by figuring out where he was and stopping the 8 or so skeletons that were kicking our asses up to that point.

Yeah I don't actually think the wizards do the fighting, so it's not AS bad as it looks, until they absolutely have to step in - and most likely, step back, because wizards can go anywhere including private mansion demiplanes or across the world or live in the sky or hang out in a 100% inaccessible mountain retreat. Even in a relatively neutral and positive nation where the magic normally helps everyone lead a better quality of life than the rest of the world, if push came to shove they'd just leave the working class to the wolves because it's an expedient risk-free solution and in the end it doesn't matter which mundanes get to live under them, or whether any do at all.

You're still looking at scary shit like golem, hybrid monster experiments and undead armies before that point, but if you want to build a campaign, that's all plenty fightable by regular heroes. So a war against the wizard nation isn't a lot of fighting wizards, but for an adventure's sake there would still be a smattering of wizards among other resistance.

It's just a bunch of regular dudes in chain and plate. Probably a bit better armed than the average, accounting for the fact that the wizards are probably very wealthy.

Now, the fun part is when you relax and think "well this isn't too bad". You attack, maybe you even start winning.

Then some fuckstick opens a gate to hell under your feet while laughing maniacally like he just did the cleverest thing ever.

One person tried

He chose poorly and went for a white dragon, frozen by ice breath and decided not to try and lay the dragon

Well not romantic relationship, but I did have one of my lizardfolk adopt a wyrming - She found a nice place for her to hide, made some kobolds to be her minions and set up her witch's hut nearby.

>>54495008
Ironicly, in games I DM white dragon is easiest one to romance, because they don't need much in terms of metals or looks, just someone crazy enough to go near them.

>>54494880
That's the dumbest justification I've ever heard. Spears exist for a reason.

It doesn't need to be smart it just has to justify something cool
Hell I didn't even need to go that far I could have just said there were bigass weapons you needed to be a fucking shounen protagonist to wield and been done with it
I didn't ask for your opinion on these weapons I asked for some inspiration

>>54494594
Thanks for the insight. I'm just asking if anyone had played it…

>>54493964
Also interested. It keeps popping up in discussions.

Wouldn't mind a share either, if anyone has one.

>>54495022
Share of what?

BULLgryn-anon here with an update.

My original plan for the right hand holding the gun didn't work out, so I opted for cutting the ripper gun's grip off completely and then attaching the 'one-handed weapon' hand from the minotaur kit with a steel pin. The entry point is covered by the bottom of the Ripper gun grip.

With a bit of dremel and greenstuff I think I can make this work, though the gun's grip is wierdly long now.
