Welp, in light of this piece of dubious news, I'm posting my beard.

typical i shaved today

>>54320522
Back in the days, /tg/ had resident tripfag that had whole collection or reaction images of his own bearded face. Some things are better left forgotten.

>>54320335
Unless it's level 1 I can't be assed to track most minor shit. Having to check my rations and ammunition every time is not what I fucking play the game for.

>>54320335
Most of my characters carry a few flavor items. Usually a journal or book, some kind of personal trinket, maybe a bottle or two of their favorite alcohol if it's not commonly found in the local taverns.

>>54320335
All my previous DMs either never let us loot, or never let me sell loot, so I just always gave myself consumables.
Now I'm forever DM, and I'm too tired to care.

Twist the knob on the back and kill the light. You shouldnt leave alchemical lights on like that. Wastes the mercury.

Now its been a while since I've seen the movie, but iirc the Loc Nar revealed itself to a girl, started telling stories, told a story about how it got defeated, and somehow that defeated it in real life?

Taarna is my waifu

Do any among you prefer online play to in-person play? If so, why?

No, just post the new fucking trove

What are your opinions on the Abyssal Tiefling Unearthed Arcana?

I like it. Gives far more RP potential. I just wish they had poison resistance or similar, as the lose fire resistance.

>>54319128
Good vs evil in the original trilogy, law vs evil in the prequels, expanded universe varies.

>>54319128
Eh, it could have swung either way but nowadays it's just a clusterfuck.

given that luke, ben, and yoda were depicted as good while vader and sheev were evil, this should be an easy question

not to mention that vader only becomes good when dies and becomes anakin the jedi, it seems even more likely

also, luke himself was not particularly lawful

Chaos and the warp have always fucked with time. Of course a bigass warprift would cause chaos

>>54318492
Travel through the warp takes an inconsistent amount of time, and it's possible to arrive somewhere before you actually depart.

But if the well established time fuckery has you autistic, fluff it as some dreads were put through the procedure and it worked

>>54318492
I.e

Fuck off autistic fluff faggot we want to sell models and ten year olds don't.give a fuck about the games established lore.

>>54317823
Nah, fucking do it. If your game is suited for the players then fantastic. Just make sure it is still a game and not just a snuff film. Make the game world a hellscape, monsters everywhere, and the players are the more humanoid monsters, really just stronfer than the average poor helpless human. Let them prey on the humans if they want, throw bigger terrible fucking monsters at them. Instead of questing for gold or doing kind deads make them hunt for weapons or souls in bottles or other assorted spooky knick knacks to trade or use for more power. A real slaughter and loot kind of game. If you do it right everyone may have a fantastic time. You get them invested in the story, they get to be blood soaked terrors.

>>54317914
This sounds like a better spin on things. I like it.

>>54317823
>every fucking game I try to run devolves into the players acting like "murderhobo

>Three different groups

There's a common denominator here and there thats you. What are you doing wrong that encourages a style of hack and slash play you don enjoy running?

FUCK THESE GODDAMN ORNATE MODELS.

I cut off those stupid fucking television antennas on their shoulders, and the search lights. Fuck you GW and your "too much is never enough" approach to detail.

You are correct, I cannot.
But I'm not very experienced. CAH is fun but crude and a shit game, Snake Oil requires too much improv talent from me, but SH I have played loads of and want to play loads more of.

They seek an immediate profit and disregard their consumer-base beyond the most basic desires had by said consumer-base.

I masturbate to fat chicks.

Did your mother not let you have chicken tendies again? Is that why you're so upset?

I had Selvala, a few cantrips in my hand, and was ready for an explosive play. I forgot turn order, tapped Selvala in my upkeep, my friends laughed at me and told me that if I was going to be /that/ dumb I deserved it. And I did. Couldn't get the mana to cast my hand, passed turn to the Zurgo player, who swung at my poor elf face.

>>54316520
Countering a Riku with Overwhelming Intellect when said Riku player had a Sphinx out. I had a split second of happiness because I love Intellect as a jank card and then I realized the fuck up. Oloro still managed to win that goddamn game

>>54316520
I let Narset land a swing because I forgot Teysa was flying at the time. Ended the whole game on the spot.

Apparently it was originally supposed to be about wizards, not ninjas.

>>54315167
spoonfeed me baka

>>54315167
Nah nigga that shit was too random. Third Hokage is top tier but used weird ass mud techniques that didn't do shit to Orochimaru.

Uchiha clan keeps spamming retarded Fireball lv 1, 2, 3 techniques, and somehow it's still relevant even vs. strongest opponents in the universe with reality warping attacks.

All the strongest people ignore the chakra system, like Eight Gates unlock, Mangekyou, Sage mode, Rinnegan, whatever the fuck Kaguya used, etc.

If you kept it to the early episodes, chakra is basically just mana and seals are incantations.

So the same edition as always?

Chaos is easily the shittiest part of the setting
>muh we already won.

This is the most sue-y part of chaos and should be changed to being ambiguous instead of functionally confirmed.

>muh endless daemons

I'm fine with this to a point. If the daemons showing u are literally endless it breaks entropy. Daemons should spill out of rifts like a hole in a barrel.

>muh gonna destroy all of reality

Gives them far to much credit. Space is big and the combined soulpower of all living things in the galaxy would not translate to galaxy eating rifts. Especially when the buildup is constantly being lessened by people using warp powers in realspace. Also the galaxy is where they keep their food. Kinda dumb of them to destroy it.

>muh now we timeless and independent of mortals

Agreed Chaos should not be immune to causality and their very existence depends on people being crazy.

>muh always irredeemably evil all the time

Makes sense in context. Chaos as the faction we see now is just a byproduct of the fucked up minds of everyone in the galaxy creating nightmare horrors. Chaos as a faction should be intent on keeping the galaxy as extreme as possible forever so they can forever gorge on crazy fanatics. They should always be trying to use the least amount of warp energy to keep things stable fear any group that shows up with a level head.


>How do we fix this shit and make it interesting?

>>54312993
Double down on everything you mentioned and make it even more over the top. Magnify the good and the bad. Fuck power creep, fuck faction bloat, just keep pouring it on and trying to outdo every ridiculous aspect with something even more ridiculous. Then do the same for Orks, Nids, IG, Marines, Necrons, Eldar, everybody. 40K is best when it's an over the top caricature of itself, deepfags need not apply.

>>54312993
>How do we fix this shit?
Considering marines are the only thing that actually matter what needs to happen is fixing CSMs. Having CSM being a horde of mooks is a terrible, terrible waste. Marines that fall to chaos should be insidious, enchanting monstrosities that demonstrate the power their chosen god. In much the same why as Kharn, Lucius, Ahriman and Typhus are portrayed other CSM should be on that level. However they should be so few in number as only the pinnacle of the heretics should survive survive.
All Marines who come across a Slanneshi warlord should be amazed by their unworldly perfection. True they may be sickened in the back of their mind but feel compelled to know more. They should be jealous of the Khorne berserker for their strength and capabilities. They should feel the blood lust rise inside of them as they see the bloody path he cuts through his enemies. Librarians should feel awe and jealous of the powers wielded by Tzeentch sorcerers. They should see the secrets half hidden in the sorcerous powers unleashed on those they should be defending. Fuck Nurgle however that fgts gay as fuck.
This is what I think needs to be fixed. Imperial guardsmen shouldnt fight CSM. The encounter should be so rare as to be unheard of, and if it ever did happen they should fall either mentally or literally at their feet. This would justify the Inquisitors actions. This would explain the Emperors hiding of the forces of Chaos. Until this happens chaos are a joke who are simply propped up by shitty narrator fluff. Having a rule book say 'CHAOS NUMBA 1' means nothing when they're shown to be complete failures in every single story.
