Them merely -speaking- results in supernova level bursts. They are also at the very -least- the size of a solar system. The only hope that the 40k galaxy has is that they kill themselves by accident because they are fucking retarded.

>>55325714
Well IIRC there are creatures from beyond the Milky Way that the Nids fear and even the Chaos Gods don't know about, so the odds that there are some kind of gigantic entity eldritchbitches from beyond reality are pretty high.

Entities get stomped early but recover. Their cycles take too long and pretty early on Warrior had a serious setback when the second planet they crashed on had aliens who discovered what was giving their people powers and literally purged the fuck out of all of them. Sure, they still got kablammed but they weren't space faring to the extent 40k is.

If they do end up infecting an imperium world, they'd probably purge the mutated people and maybe exterminatus the place to be sure, making the cycle useless as they keep wasting energy on little. Still, by how they collect data they'd probably end up with some idea of 40k tech even if it's in the more rudimentary sense for the most part.

Their main issue is that they aren't the top dog. They are strong but stupid and stupid is what gets you killed.

Holding back the hordes of the Middle Earth equivalents of Russia, China, and India and fucking up the plans of the other eight ringwraiths.

Before you start, read the Qur'an to gain a sense of context, it's a relatively short book and if you aren't a brainlet, it shouldn't take you any longer than an afternoon to finish.

Al Qadim my friend. I've got a similar setting on the backburner until I can find a group that isn't shit.

>>55325183
Read the One Thousand and One Nights first, not the Quran.

Why the fuck do 'hams always try to relate every fucking thing to their dumbass setting? Is it some sort of hypnosis?

It's been on my mind for a bit.

Poorly. Anything she tries to tell people will be declared Heresy. If she even lives long enough without being killed by Orks, Tyranids, or whatever other nasty that feels like fucking Judy up that day.

Then she'll be killed by the Imperium for being a filthy heretic, by the people around her or by an Inquisitorial kill team.

>Mere fleshbags managing to kill the very concept of evil itself.
What did Jeffries mean by this?

Adult human can weight close to 100 kilos.
About 80% of that can be processed.
Standard food serving of meat is like 0.25 kilo.
And village population could be around 300.
Conclusion: yes.

>>55325021
Yes, definitely, especially at historical levels of calorie consumption per day. Part of the reason that adult humans need so many calories per day in modern times is because we ate so well as children and grew up to be large. If humans stay small their calorie needs are significantly lowered.

>>55325021
I mean, it depends? Create Food and Water is a level 3 spell that can sustain 15 humanoids for a day. Alternatively, there's also goodberry, a level 1 druid spell, that can sustain 10.
If a level 17 cleric spends all of his spell slots exclusively on creating food, he can cast it 12 times, which feeds 180 people. That sounds like a village worth of people to me.
However, a level 17 cleric probably has better things to do than feeding peasants.

Only War let's your party be a tank crew.

I feel like Star Wars FFG you could get pretty close to this as well.

>>55324954
In nearly any game I try to add vehicles as either GM or PC.

PF? I'm typically the one with a tricked out wagon or later on if possible, ship/airship.

Star Wars? A dirt cheap frigate or something.

Often my parties will hate me initially be as time goes on, they realize having a mobile base is something you'll need/love.

Sure is,

Its pretty alright, although combat can become a bogged down nightmare as I feel it tries to replicate the games too closely (aka, do loads math)

I actually thought about making a Pokemon RPG using the Cortex/+ system seen in Marvel Heroics and Firefly RPG.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YmvS5iQbeGLCxHxaAyjekJW0OcV0-ZmBoT657QJwVQ0/edit?usp=drivesdk

It's not complete but if you or anyone else wants to tackle it then go ahead. I've not been able to give it much time lately due to real life killing me.

>>55325006
So looking through it seems very well polished, but I don't know if I care for the sheer amount of crunch that trainers alone seem to require. Do you need to so thoroughly stat trainers, or is it viable to gloss over that and leave trainers mostly to fluff?

>>55325177
Can you give me a quick rundown of the Cortex/+ system?

She's the only one I have.... but God has she been hit hard with the ugly stick. She lives with my chainsword wielding "Space Eunuch". Not sure what GW was thinking when they named him.

So I won some store credit at my FLGS and figured it was as good a chance as any to get into 40k. I picked up a beginner paint set that came with clippers, paints, glue, and a brush, and some adeptus mechanicus skitarii.

what the fuck do I do now?

>>55324867
cannon elephants you say

They get the bonuses when they level up and take a level in monk or whatever to reflect their interest in those skills.
Otherwise they get nothing

This just screams powergaming, and if you enable it you are part of the problem.

>>55324004
It's not very realistic to train for months and not get gains though. You should be able to increase your strength to 18 over a year with fairly easy but consistent routine.

>>55324004
I don't run a combat heavy game, so powergaming isn't a huge problem, and I watch for it either way. I also don't like having a predetermined path, that is OOC. So having the organic progression based on what theyre exposed to is something I'm A OK with.

>What kind of plot is it?
Fuck, how do I explain this. Okay, so, you know the Cold War? Well, imagine if it continued AFTER the apocalypse, the only people who really remembered why the war was happening in the first place were the leaders of each respective side, and they only continued the war was because their respective peoples literally could not live without an antagonist group.

By the way, did I mention that this is a war between Heaven and Hell? Cause that's an important detail.

>>55323623
I can't tell, it's too damn convoluted.

>>55323479
No. Children shows can not defeat ridiculous 90's-esque grimdark that takes itself too seriously.

got literally banned from a 'science' group by arguing that not everyone in a grave with warrior stuff in it must've been a warrior, no matter sex of the corpse :(
If i get buried with a Harley and a Hells Angels jacket, does that make me a member of those heroin dealing fags? Woman as wariors existed, but is this proof that specific girl was one? Nope, sadly not.

I thought vikings burned their dead on rafts.
