And Liliana's third demon is dead in the matter of a short story. Good Work Wizards

>>53801384
I remember last threads people kept hyping up Razaketh.


woooosh, and he died so quickly.

This has to be extra buildup for the Gatewatch/Jacetice League to defeat another big bad using the power of FRIENDSHIP


To make the ensuing devastation Bolas inflicts seem even more shocking.

Also if that Raven Man isn't Urza, I'll eat Vriska's pirate hat

this game is apparently as dead as the elves in the AOS setting.

>>53780056
Huh-uh.

So, you're going to repeat this every time to maintain your self-denial?

>>53780270
How active are the AoS generals usually? Three posts in 40min seems kinda dead, but it could just be the hour.

>I'm considering making the raven two-headed to tie them in closer with the Imperium

You've got a pretty kickass geneseed mutation right there.

I was talking about the chapter symbol.

The Haida were basically native american vikings. May I suggest you make them fleet based, and in addition to ambush, they also practice HALO and even orbital drops.

Rather than power tomohawks, tomohawks should be their replacement for combat knives.

The Haida also had specialized naval weapons for destroying other peoples canoes. So again, fleet based, make them very effective naval combatants/borders.

Obviously clan is important to them, similar to other chapters like Salamanders, Wolves, Khans etc.

Note that the flag of Haida already has a two headed raven

>Haida society is divided into two moieties, Eagle and Raven. For a people living in the borderlands, yet also in the center, this division makes perfect sense. Eagle represents the center, regular, human society, the right-hand path. Raven represents the liminal, non-human society, the left-hand path. It is with Eagle that food is gathered, judgements are passed down, marriages happen. Raven is the realm of the myth in it’s constantly changing form, that step away from the human world that must happen for art and story to exist.

>It is because they are a people at the edge of the world that the Haida hold Raven in such high respect. They understand the need for that entry to the liminal spaces. Gods and humans alike are divided into Eagle and Raven sides; “it is part of the intrinsic structure of the world.”

Thus you can consider the Chapter believes themselves to be Braves who have passed into the spirit realm. The great Imperial Eagle represents humanity and the material. The Raven the Immaterial, the Liminal. The Raven can go anywhere and surpass any boundary - this represents the Chapter members journeying through the warp to fight the enemies of men. They are no longer human, no longer mortals - by becoming space marines they have passed already into a spiritual realm, each of them an undying brave who lives forever through their geneseed.

its good

>>53858132
It's really solid. The rules take some getting used to (anything mecha related is bound to be more complex), but you can do a lot with this ruleset.

>>53858132

Some people love it. It's way too granular and crunchy for my tastes, but that's just me.

Thoughts on pic related for a 500pt Wych Cult starter?

Does anyone know if the citadel skirmish case can hold a land raider and if so how much space does it take?

After nuking our campaign twice, the second time over a hissy fit and killing everyone and the DM refusing to kick him everyone is going to give him a hard time.

At this point just waiting for a friend to set up his game to leave behind the group.

>>53857505
OOC? Our DM, takes shit from two guys in our party who will scream at anything that doesn't go perfectly their way until he retcons it.

As an in-character punching bag? Myself, I typically play a tanky character in any setting we do, or at least our main line fighter in a more lethal game.

>>53857505
The guy who's always a fucking hour late.
We had this one running gag with an older character of his where he'd always get arrested for something he didn't even start. I was GMing, and I didn't even mean to. It was just that whenever the guards showed up, it seems like he'd been the last one to do something.

>>53856511
Well, part of it is that most fantasy settings take place on a single world, and it's easier to accept convergent evolution within a biosphere than between two radically different ones. Another big part is that fantasy often has creation myths that are factually true, and if there's a creator then it's reasonable that said creator really likes a certain body plan for his sapient creations and reuses it a lot.

>>53856511
Because Fantasy needs lots of interesting creatures to butcher at swordpoint.

I'd say they are accepted in both to a degree that fretting about it makes no sense.

As to why fantasy is more permissive:
>Intelligent design is more often a thing or at least implied
>Ties back to mythologic entities that where likewise human-like, be it because they were intended to humanize nature or because they where based on actual people.
>Magic as a plot element facilitates conveniently human forms.
>There is no underlying ambition to represent the many possible forms of extraterrestrial life.
>Less ambition towards "realism" and scientific grounding.
>Almost never vehicle for a current scientific theory or development.
>omnipresent technology compensates easier for creatures that can not fulfill the necessities of direct convenient interaction with other creatures and objects.
>Sci fi creatures compared to fantasy creatures are more often a big plot device as opposed to a person among others.

Your game sounds stupid and boring. If you want to take a philosophy class, do that and leave my hobby alone.

>>53848019
Sell it for profit. Its worthless to the extreme relatives and the childs dreams can live on with me.

Super shitty names BL comes up with these days.

By this point I don't even care about the Siege of Terra. BL will just turn it into a convoluted mess of derp like they did with the rest of the Heresy. The series sunk beyond salvage about two years ago.

>>53842403
>Siege of Terra
Literally never.
We'd rather see first how Big E effortlessly destroys Horus and then gets somehow his ass kicked by Abadoobadoom for whatever reason.

>>53842403
>Will we see finally the siege of Terra in 2018?- 2 posts shown.
I hope not. I hope I never have autists constantly reminding me of how awful the Siege of Terra could be after BL gets their hands on it.

How full of smelly neckbeards will my local GW store be today

Jesus fucking Christ, another person potentially stuck in Arkansas.

As to your question, it depends entirely on your modeller, your printer, and your medium. I've seen some really neat, really detailed small-scale stuff. Look up some videos on YouTube from 3d printing channels to see.

The real roadblock, as said, is going to be either not having a good modeller, or not being able to shell out for a good printer or medium.

DOn't worry anon
jsut wait for the death guard codex to be released in three weeks
then yo'ull have the super speciel death guard blightplaguesrs terminators
And they'll be your only terminators and you can't take any others.
And the codex will be back up to €40
Because fuck you €20 will only get you poorly typed half rules.

>>53853488
Yeah basically this. Look at the Thousand Sons release, they got the basic troop, termies, cannon fodder, heroes and primarch and now also cannot use the basic CSM versions of those.

Can't you just ally them? Or am I missing something here?
