What would a layer of the Abyss based on Ancap ball memes, NAP violations, and "everything is an NAP violation, even the most trivial emotional harm or financial harm" be like?
>>53901604
>emotional harm
>NAP violation
Someone is a leftist statist who doesn't understand NAP. (it's you)
>>53901604
Emotional harm does not violate the NAP. The forceful infringement upon private property and the rights of individuals however, does.

Does anyone have templates like pic related for other factions?Specifically Skitarii?
>>53901366
I don't have a template, but have some paint schemes instead.
>males get +1 str and -1 cha
>females get -1 str and +1 cha
Tell me why this is not the standard, without resorting to -3 str memes.
>>53901235
Pretty hard for D&D-specific stats to be any sort of "standard."
>>53901235
First, tell us why that should be the standard.
Women at physically weaker than men. They are not more charismatic in terms of the D&D definition because charisma in D&D also represents inner power and who. Women do have much of the latter, but what I mean is, women seen be the sorcerers because they at pretty. Anyway the real way to handle male / female stats is to let them be rolled normally, or point bought normally, but disallow females to have strength score > 13. This means women can still get fair stats but the strength score is limited to believable levels.

Thread Question:
Why does Maro have a compulsion to tell everyone that they're wrong for liking things from Magic's past?
Repostin
I want to get more competitive and play higher level decks. My playgroup will never be ready, as it is mostly comprised of college students who are mostly constrained by budgets.
What do I run to not shit on them unfairly? I just want to feel like I'm beating a challenge every time. Do I just swallow the pill and become archenemy, or what are some commanders I can scale down for the lower-tier games?
Why do you put loaded questions in the OP?
>>53899722
your lgs probably has comp decks
play comp with them and jank with buds
Cora is best girl
You spelled Furia wrong.
Quite possibly the gayest thread in the catalog at this moment.
>>53899472
Furia a shit.A SHIT
Under what circumstances are DMPCs acceptable?
>>53899270
I'd say most non-combat type characters like Healers, or Support characters.
Having another healer, or buff/debuffer in the group is always good, and doesn't take away the glory from the players. It's also nice to have them be knowledgeable in a few fields because Players can sometimes forget plot details.
>>53899653
This.
>>53899270
Depends on the group.
Anyone have experience running Nechronica? Was it any fun? Any interesting stories?
I actually initially started looking into ttg because of it but have yet to find a group for it. And most people tend to not take the zombie loli thing well.
>>53898576
Only experience I have is a gm claiming there was rules that he could instant kill us during combat if he felt like it. Lasted one meet.
Besides that, it was a great system I'd love to find another group for.
(P.S.: Dont play it if you feel uncomfortable roleplaying as a loli.)
>>53898576
It's fairly trivial to refluff from "zombie loli" to "zombie teen" or "zombie adult". Don't let people who are afraid to RP a child drag you down.
>>53898852
>>53898876
I think its less the rp as a loli thing, and more people hear it and automatically go into weird weeb fetish territory making them steer clear before even learning about it.
Modern elves have NOTHING to do with the elves of Tolkien. Humans with long ears and lives, as opposed to the graceful perfection of Tolkien's elves. Why are you using inferior knockoffs?
>>53898166
Because it doesn't matter? Because there's no objectively right answer or objectively right way to run a game? Because if I wanted to run a game with Tolkien Elves, I'd run one, and if I wanted to run one with Keebler Elves I'd run that too, and there's not a goddamn thing any of you could do to stop me doing it and having fun?

>>53898166
>Sucking Tolkien's dick
He was a hack, for Christ's sake
have a (you)
Sometimes, the knockoff fits better than the original. Tolkien's elves served his narrative, but works poorly for RPG settings. In Tolkien, elves were the dying symbols of a better time now passed. My campaigns do not tell that kind of story, and so insane fey-inspired freaks make a better fit.
I'm trying to figure out what would work best for a dungeon crawler miniature game, on the style of Dark Souls tbg or Kingdom Death Monster.
>>53896481
If you're using minis, go gridless and never look back.
>>53896534
this, tape measure and miniatures.

>Can I play as a sith? Can I play as a grey jedi?
>can I play as a Sith?
Disciples of Harmony says you can. Good luck finding a master in the Imperial era; Palpy and Vader don't like competition. Also enjoy the fact dark side is playable but expressly worse than staying true to the light.
Grey jedi are the worst thing to happen to Star Wars. The 'chaotic neutral' of Star Wars rpgs.
>>53896199
>how dare someone want to play as something
Serious question, all memes aside:
To all you 40k players who play both loyalist and chaos Space Marines, here is my honest-to-goodness question:
What's the appeal?
Warhammer 40,000 is a vast universe full of many possibilities and many choices in who you decide to spend money, time, and effort in the army you elect to play as. To this day, though, it befuddles me that the scales tip so heavily in favor of the really-really-big-men-in-armor versus the variety of choices you would otherwise have. So please, in all seriousness: Share with us why you started collecting Marines. And maybe we will all have insight into why Space Marines (Chaos and Loyalist) are the most popular armies that Games Workshop caters to, to this very day.
>>53895171
Why do you play your boring ass faction that the vast majority of 40k players don't play and would rather play marines instead? You tell me.
>why don't I like these things I don't like
>explain to me why these things I don't like aren't like the things I like
>>53895171
I stumbled upon the Index Astartes of the Thousand Sons and the Iron Warriors when they were released, and I fell in love with these Legions.
Afterwards, there's a lot more stuff written from a marine pov than from a Xenos one.
>>53895171
>marines are pushed everywhere
>get the most competitive and up to date models and rules
>which means people buy them
>which gives GW to give them more new models
GW just sells space marines, they killed Fantasy to sell space marines and are now making dwarf space marines.

What do you do?
>>53891572
Ask how much damage I take and roll for initiative.
>>53891572
Offer him some tea.
>>53891572
Tell him he had better not annoy my girlfriend or she'll eat him.
Since she's a dragon and all.
It's like the galaxy's largest seafood buffet! If tyranids don't taste that good I'm
Sure they can be seasoned or processed enough to be better than what most imperials and Orks already eat.
>>53889606
Are you physically retarded?
Your stupidity is so horrendous that the American peopke should rise up and pass legislation that requires your testicles to be surgically removed, cremated and then have the ashes buried next to Hitler.
>>53893584
They eat people and shit by turning them into what's pretty much soylent green, why not just do that but with Nids?
Show us and tell us about your dudes! We all have cool fluff and stories to share, and often a fresh pairs of eyes can help when it comes to constructive criticism.
For example, here are my dudes in Age of Sigmar, and feel free to tell me what you think:
>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DleJ7guokNXxnsKZX7hu-vjRa0Hw4edANjkYRwm0PDY/edit?usp=sharingFYI English isn't my main language so please excuse any grammatical errors
>>53888201
Your English isn't that bad anon.
Interesting fluff... though it sounds like the two main warlords don't like each other, given how pissed the beastlord was that some beastigors went over to the nurgle Lord, yet they work together.
Painting is pretty good. Basing on beastigors is good, same as the plaguebearers, but the rest is a little uninspired.
All in all, a solid 8/10. Keep it up
>>53888383
Thanks for your input Anon, my old WHFB models are pretty old and not that good painted compared to my newer models as you saw on the bestigors and the plaguebeares
>>53888383
>>53888913
And the reason why my beastlord hasn't beaten the rotlord to a pulp yet is becuase he is smart enough not to want to cause a massive civil war within army
