He was posting in the last thread, so yes.

Zelbezis is actually built around the idea of becoming a head of state. That already puts him way ahead in my book. Plus, I feel like a Warmaster's legion should be slightly more vanilla. The Ogre Legion's Samurai theme is too prominent for me to consider them a good fit for Warmaster.

New Guy here again - will be posting as napoleon

what's butte hold?

>>53512714
A remote planet, home of Redjack Ryan and his pirate band. Canonically, Ryan has a thing for dressing in leather and having his captives whipped. The inferences and jokes /btg/ have drawn from that are as obvious as they are juvenile.

> What game are you wanting to play?

Apparently I'm on a 'Martin Wallace' kick. I want to play more of 'The Arrival' and I picked up a copy of 'Hit Z Road' which is a fun light-weight 4 player game where each player tries to survive a trip through a Zombie Apocalypse while collecting the most points along the way. And I'm awaiting the arrival of 'A Handful of Stars' as well.

> What game are you hoping to avoid?

Catan - this game just doesn't do much for me.

> What (if anything) is on your 'buy soon' list?

Hoping to find a copy of Nemo's War once the KS ships.

>What game are you hoping to avoid?
Continuing to try and avoid any of these "big rpg in a box games" like GH or KD:M. They seem fun but pricy and there's just too much to really ever play it all.

That and I'll always try to be convincing my brother to play something other than pandemic.

Millennium Blades Set Rotation for personal reasons and I'd like to get SECRETS by Lang and Faidutti when it comes out so I can do a review of it (that means finding people who'll play it and let me record them too..)

Collection wagglan all day every day. Feel free to ask me about any of the games.

I'll get the ball rolling: I've got two decks that I'm rolling with that have done pretty well in testing. What upgrades or cuts would you make to them, particularly in terms of sideboards? I especially need help with my Enigma Drake deck - I feel like it's trying to do too many things and at this point I almost think I should cut the Drake Havens.

Grimwyrd after action report!

Alright bros! Lets game!
...3 hours later...
>debating how to press an army from refugees
>provisioning math
>"If we feed them for free, they may come to expect it. This is not charity. We are not offering them a peaceful, easy meal. We are offering them the chance to fight for a place at the table."
>"It's not about the free meal. It's about showing you can provide for them. It's about showing that if they follow you and do what you ask you can make food happen.
If they follow you then you will have the resources of a thousand able bodied people at your disposal. Command them wisely and you will have little trouble keeping the people fed"

Truth be told, they did eventually decide to just head into the refugee village and go straight to the leadership, but this was after they had lunch, recruited 20 militiamen, and convinced themselves not to arm the populace until after the formal arrangements were made

So of course the moment they're on the wrong side of the wall, they're confronted by the estranged half elf Rover brother of their old ally Aachen! And he's sporting a new rune encrusted scar over his heart and big old fangs!

Are there better rules for the slam action?

>>53464377
This week on Grimwyld:

We got paid, in a way. With the noblemen dead his majordomo provided us with a box of portable valuables, candlesticks, silverware and china. Also threw in a cart and horse.

So fortified, the group had a long talk about the best way to try and recruit the strong and hale among the desperate refugees from when we accidentally blew up the south. We thought of bringing food or collecting weapons but deiced it was best to check out the lay of the land first and went to go search for the leaders at the camp.

Then we met with an elf we'd run into before. Kind of a fuckup asshole that we'd nearly killed last time we met, but he said he could take us to a leader, a "witch queen".

>>53582957
> Macav, the half-orc so powerful that only two Macavs could kill him
So he died to a single orc? Doesn't sound that powerful to me.

>>53583025
Oh fuck that's actually funny as fuck.

REGARDLESS I'll take a noncommital reply as an excuse to post the story.

Little bit of backstory:

I’ve been playing Pathfinder for just over three years now, with a group that’s been going for a long, long time. They’re all in their mid-to-late twenties, early thirties. I’m twenty-one, and am a newer intro to the group. And boy, are these guys fucking magical. I love every second in that house, with the ridiculous shit that seems to happen every time.

Now, don’t get the wrong idea. The games were not humorous. Not a lot, anyway. There was the typical bullshit that made everyone laugh, but for the most part this group would use the rules as a weapon to buttfuck eachother into obscurity. Every game was very serious, with at least two pages of backstory per character. We took the games seriously, and our characters seriously. Killing each other is just part of the fun. The betrayal of teammates, the insidious liars and BBEG’s in disguise are what make the table so fun for me.

I wasn’t actually in this particular campaign, I was playing a campaign held directly afterwards. These guys live and breathe tabletop games, and played all the fucking time. They aren’t sperglords, though, they all have jobs and convene when they can. But I was there to witness the glory.

>>53581185
Am I assuming that the Astral Plane is a separate three dimensional realm from our world, shifted in a fourth spatial dimension? Or is astral space four dimensional and is all the hyperspace "above" our 3D plane?
Basically: If I leave our real world and enter astral space, can I turn in 4D, potentially making myself mirrored? Or is turning still 3D, so that I can change my 3D orientation, but if I have a glove on my right hand I can't turn it into a left-hand glove?

Also: Gravity? Is there gravity or equivalent at all inside the Astral Realm? What keeps people from moving ana into the astral realm? Do you have to exert some kind of force to not fall back into the normal world? Is movement limited by anything?

>>53581400
In the Astral Plane, from the perspective of one who is in the Astral Plane, they are an intangible slightly transparent spirit occupying three-dimensional space, they still see themselves as being in the 'normal world'.

However in reality they are themselves occupying a fourth-dimension intersecting with the normal universe. They can move however in three dimensions, essentially allowing them to fly.

The spirits themselves are composed of magical energy, which is the point where any attempt at a scientific explanation breaks down into horrible sobbing and nonsense.

What I'm asking is whether saying "Its a fourth dimension" would produce the results I say it produces in the OP.

>>53581185
The basic concept of changing tangibility and going through objects is sound. The light and sound parts are a little stranger, the light part works if you assume that objects used by someone capable of astral shifting can also operate in four dimensions, although you may need to rely on rule of 'because' for why that light doesn't scatter and cause illumination on the material plane as well. There is a definite need for rule of 'because' when it comes to why objects used by an astral person can operate in all four dimensions but sound waves only appear in three, this would also mean that people on different 'levels' of the astral plane would be unable to hear each other as well and astral people also couldn't hear material people

>>53581026
Yes to both of your questions.

'you have found a group'. That's kind of what matters. If they seem like they wouldn't be fun to play with, either give it a shot and see how it goes or just avoid it and find a group you feel less reservations about.

That's a suckers game. A good rogue ALWAYS has someone else ready to take the fall and a contingency for every happenstance.

>>53580382
Game already started, but thanks for the help. I was mostly just wondering if there was anything cool that could be done with Wild Talent (and probably another Psionic Feat) that meshed well with already existing spellcasting.

No, because it originates with the C'tan. Same way necrodermis is incorruptible.

Computer virus are under the domain of Nurgle? I like the idea of a nurgle cultist who is infecting techpriests and servoskulls with malware.

Perhaps but then it's not hard to imagine most being under different gods for different reasons. Wasn't there some kind of spike that, when driven into your brain forcibly removed your faith in the emperor?
