On one hand that is entirely 100% correct.
On the other hand their expectations were woefully incorrect.
The Heavenly Host has kinda been spinning their wheels since evil was defeated forever a few years back.
How would you suggest 10,000 angels with way too much time on their hands keep busy?
Seems like at that point there's basically finding a new world to fight evil on or retirement. Maybe just finding a form a little less extreme than a pillar of light or burning wheel and starting a candle shop or something

Have you ever dressed up/cosplayed/got garb for a tabletop rpg? How did it go?
>>54128789
It was silly and grand. I knocked over two drinks at once with a flourish of my cape.
>>54128789
No, but this thread interests me, because my partner is down to play a tabletop rpg, only if we go all the way. With figures, costumes...
I basically just showed her OP's pic to be sure and she was all like "YESSS!"
What am I in for?
>>54131904
>I knocked over two drinks at once
Honnestly, this is what worries me the most.
>>54128789
no, but my group has joked about buying me some shit to wear when we play, and I've always said if they buy it then I'll wear it.
What themes do you want in Fantasy China besides a bureaucracy, an endlessly overthrowing dynasty, and a big wall?
>>54127239
A focus on the day to day life of the peasant, then building up from there.
>>54127239
Awesome martial arts duels.
>>54127239
Roving sword masters, roving kung fu masters, roving various non-sword masters, roving kung fu monks, the usual.
How do you stat kaiju, /tg/?
Give it regular stats when it's fighting another kaiju or some kind of superweapon, but no stats at all when it's fighting regular characters. You fight them on their own level or you just don't fight them.
>>54121309
Either of two ways.
1. As really damned big creatures (Pacific Rim, Cloverfield, some of the lesser Toho Kaiju)
2. As forces of nature/gods (Gamera, the Toho Heavy Hitters)
Legendzilla kinda would fall between the two.
>>54121471
This.
I might include stats for interacting/fending off, but not defeating.
So why did none of the other Chaos gods really do anything with the Eldar gods before Slaanesh came along?
>>54113907
The Warp is a weird place. We don't really have a great idea of how it works. The Chaos Gods don't really fuck with Gork or Mork either for example. Slaanesh is of the Eldar and fucked them up for that reason. I have to imagine Nurgle's meddling began because he's a pervent with a thing for elf tits and he just took the opportunity while the Elven gods were dead or weakened and couldn't oppose him.
>>54113907
Nurgle is a shy good guy so he needed time to gather up and ask Isha out.
Guess what? Now he have a waifu. One romantic thing in 40k.....its good to see after that whole fuckup with Gramaticus and Alfa legion gf stealing.
>>54113907
Tzeentch was cooking up some Horus Heresy in Order to Kill off Malal, and the Elves woke up Slaanesh early instead of mankind, so Slaanesh is made of concentrated shit taste opposed to the glorious tastes of mankind, but we were fullblown Imperium by that point and not space Weimar, so Slaanesh only got shitty elven excess to make it up, so it has shit taste.
It's all good edition

You've found a lamp with a dick-ass genie inside!
Fortunately, you've done your research. These genies were nobles of powerful sorcerer slave empire, cast down by the gods and bound as slaves themselves to teach them humility. Each one will only be freed after serving 1001 masters, three wishes for each. These genies are assholes, but you know their rules:
+ They only have to follow the words of your wish, and can interpret those words as far as they can be interpreted.
+ They can't directly lie to their master, but can deceive indirectly.
+ They can't do anything to harm their master UNLESS their master's wish can be interpreted as request/permission to do so.
+ Wishes have to be declared by holding the lamp, addressing the genie ("slave" or "servant" will do) and announcing "I wish [X]", so they can't take any casual expression of desire as a wish.
+ Wishes are only used up to do outright magical things; until you use them all, the genie must serve you any way a human slave could. The genie is allowed to alter their appearance but is required to openly wear some sign of their slavery.
The genies are forbidden to interfere in the domain of the gods even if their master wishes it, so:
- They cannot truly create life by magic (though they can animate lifeless objects, or transfigure existing living creatures)
- They cannot interfere with mortal free will (no mind control)
- They cannot interfere with the rightful flow of time
- They cannot use any magic on their own prison lamps or the lamps of other genies
The magic that recognizes you as master of the lamp is divine, not the genie's, and effectively recognizes your "wish account" by your soul. The lamp does not work for beings who do not have souls. Mastery does not need to be consecutive - you can make your first wish, pass the lamp to someone else, have them make their first wish and then take the lamp back and cast your second wish, and so on.
What do you wish?
>>54105762
I wish for a blowjob.
Wish #1:
>The ability to bestow clinical, regenerative, and invulnerability-based immortality upon anyone I so choose, while giving them to revoke the ability at any time.
Wish #2:
>A genuinely good sci-fi video game.
Wish #3:
>>54105772
>>54105772
"A blowjob? Where?"
"Duh. Mah dick."
>Your dick explodes.
"The job is done. You have two wishes left."

There's a connection here.
The players in my game have decided to rob a group I included in the news mostly for fluff and now I need to decide what the defences would be like.
A group of Swiss Guard are in the city to transport the bones of a saint back to the Vatican. What sort of defences would they have/what sort of threat are the swiss guard in shadowrun?
One of the group is an Adversary-Mentor Black Magic mage who's convinced the rest of the group it would be a great idea and get him loads of favour with his mentor.

His priorities look pretty solid to me, anon.

Explain this one.
No.

It means you're an anti-authoritarian who resents being held down by unnecessary rules and regulations, but ultimately have the good of others at heart over your own personal comforts whenever it actually matters.

Old bread >>53813162

Daredevil gets 2 MU and 2 cards on the conditional that:
a) The Corp has a 2 ICE server.
b) You run it
While Ubax is 1 MU and gives you a card inconditionally every turn.
>>53997389
>Daredevil vs Ubex
If you run a lot, then Daredevil will get you plenty of cards. Big difference here is you can opt not to install it while there aren't enough ice down or you don't need the MU, vs Ubax which is better if you install early, which could end up being a big tempo hit. The free draw from the latter is also just really cool.
>>53997419
Even moon decks should have 2 ice on centrals eventually, otherwise shapers can just dominate RnD.
>>53997440
An earlier MO should (hopefully) be enough to pay for Ubax in theory.
I see a lot of character and location art threads but I never knew which was more appropriate for posting armies. So fuck it I'll just start a new thread specifically for large groups of armed individuals.
Feel free to post any army pictures from any setting or time period, either in battle, on parade or just chillin'.
40k is welcome but please keep it to a minimum, I don't want this thread flooded with muhreens.
Starting it off with some images I just pulled off google so please forgive the shitty filenames.
Making a TCG senpais, I wanted to ask if the cards look practical. Art takes up most of the space because I know people love big artwork, considering to make effect are smaller so I could not make hudge effects that everyone hates reading :^).
>>54136117
Art is a potato placeholder.
Here is a thread where I outlined some of the rules: >>54120396 in case you are interested.
>>54136132
Clearly. Design isn't too bad. Maybe enlarge the numbers a little for easier reading
>>54136117
the numbers and the type line (if it's not a flavor text) are too small. Consider using card or art corners for your 4 numbers and make a type line as large as the regular card text.
putting a card name at the top has its merits too so consider it
