OP question here - are Tyrannofexes worth their points? They seem fairly mediocre at their cost and it seems you would only ever take the rupture cannon...

No, not at all. They're essentially a generic tank statline, with bad weapons and no wargear options.
>>
>>54440017
I have a soft spot for them, because I like the idea of them, they aren't BAD per say but there are better options
>>
>>54440348
the guns aren't bad, especially if you sit still.

48 S5 shots is nothing to sniff at, especially when IG players are getting all in a bother about only 40 shots out of a vulture.

So guys, if a Dhampir dies and all the proper rituals are undertaken (buried, etc.) would he become a vampire, or at least a revanent? I mean, if the Human soul of the guy is gone, wouldn't that mean that all that's left is vampirism? Nowhere seems to have a clear answer. It came up in a game today and now I gotta know what everyone thinks, or if there already is an answer somewhere.

It really really depends on setting. Everyone has their own idea on what happens when vampires are involved. Hell, some Greeks believe dead werewolves become vampires.

For countless centuries we've carved our home out of the world. We gnawed through stone and ejected the spoil into the void above. We shaped tools of metal and bone and ceramic. We raised mushrooms and fish for food and dug pathways, work chambers, sleeping chambers, storage chambers, archives, lavatories, washing chambers, kitchens, feeding chambers and chambers for our queens.

Then came the bearded ones. Vile creatures who akin to the surface walkers which proliferate like vermin and sought to plunder our hives an exterminate us. They killed many sisters, queens and pup fell to their axes and swords. But in the end, we rallied. The Hives were united and struck back. With blade and mace and fire tooth we struck back against them. The tide was turned, the looters were routed and turned to prey and a Hive of Hives was born. Now we press our attack against those which sought our doom. All will come to serve the Metahive. The bearded ones shall do so as Food.

Praise be to the Sun, may its fire ignite us! We, the chosen one of the Sun, have long sustained its march in the sky by gifting it sacrifices, and in return it gave us a bountiful place to rest! And it is also with the Sun's blessing we have expanded past the deserts ringing the oasis of our home! Here we stand, in one such place - and in the Sun's name, we shall bring its light here! But these lands have long forgotten the Sun! It is up to us, mighty warriors of the Bearded, to bring the Sun's light into the very hearts of the pallid, freakish inhabitants of this land, so that the Sun may have them for sustenance in its infinite march! For the Sun! For the continuation of the march! We FIGHT!

I have a technique I use when writing scenarios that is a lot of fun.
I mix up characters, items, tropes, plot elements, and many other things from various sources and mix them all together, generating a new unique product.
I enjoy tweaking things until they all make sense.

We could do that in this thread, since I didn't find one that interested me tonight.

We need:
Characters
Protagonists
Antagonists
Setting Details
Story Details
Important Items
Important Places
Session Plothook:
Campaign Plothook:

Only limit is that it must be a reference that is known or you can explain in one line if we haven't read that manga.
Perhaps we could do a "posts ending in 9" "Dubs to override" thing? to confirm.

>That sounds like literally all of fiction
Well, yeah, okay.
Every piece of fiction could be described that way.
But not every piece of fiction is generated by doing something like sticking the Gunslinger with the Samurai to fight the Dark Knight and crammed into Pulp Sci-Fi.

I just thought it would be fun to try it with a bunch of random sources instead of my own biased brain.
Seeing what sort of monstrosity we could cobble together like a fat guy's plate at a buffet and then making it smooth and synergistic seemed like a /tg/ kind of thing to do.

Since Ultimate Lifeform can make boosted versions of copied Stands and other abilities, can you use that power on abilities you already possess? The description sounds like Kars copied the stands, then improved them, so this would be skipping the copy step and just improving stuff you already can do.

Now to figuring out a plan for surviving all this wackiness at Jump 1. I don't want the other Mes to miss jumps so I can be extra safe going into this place.

So I'm a few books into the Horus Heresy and I'm not the biggest fan of the emprah or chaos. Which legions/chapters are known for their love of pure combat//tactics? I know about the Reasonable Marines and Raptors but I'm kind of interested in the Alpha Legion's tactics

The intro packs were bad but holy shit they don't even try with the planeswalker decks.

At best we can hope they have learnt their lesson about shafting one color every set.

Then again I suppose alternate art had the risk of the packs getting brought out by experienced players so there were none left for the newbies.

Nah can't be. I am sure the drowner of sorrows in battle for kaladesh had alt art.

Trick is to to find reasons why you SHOULD kill yourself and compare. I think someone needed to edit this game better, the rules weren't very well explained when we started playing it.

Is that like a for or an against?
Or maybe both?

I always envied these people at conventions. They are so into it, usually super friendly, and have the coolest setups.

But I don't really know a lot of about some of the historical stuff, and I don't know the rules they usually use (black powder, and bolt action.. not sure what they use for war of the roses, roman, greek, etc). I don't want to get in the way of their fun.

How would you GM a game about humanity being the slave race of a more powerful species? Something where even if the players manage to escape their slave chains and defeat their masters, they have an entire world of hostile beasts looking to get them back in those chains, or worse?

How would you make it so players still had fun while also feeling like a slave race?

what exactly is his M.O. again? He's magic, really powerful, he's just trying to kill stuff and influence people to kill stuff for him, ultimately everything? he's not particularly interesting or even particularly threatening from what i remember of the show

>>54437080
>what exactly is his M.O. again?
From what we know? Presumably to kill everything in the entire multiverse, every last trace of life in all of creation, so that the multiverse will cease to be as it requires living beings to observe it and to know of it in order for it to exist. He may also be a servant of GOLB, and a timeless monstrosity from before even the nothing that preceded the multiverse existed.
>>
>>54436932

He's your average lich in any fantasy setting, which means he menaces a kingdom for a little bit and then the pc's kick his door in and waste him.

In 40k he'd be equivalent to a Chaos Cult leader I think. Pretty sure he menaces a planet for a bit before the inquisition kicks his door in and then meltaguns him in the face.

He got beat by a preteen. He really ain't all that big of a deal.
