Somebody's upset.
If your players approach you with plans to summon Azathoth and go insane, with the possibility to upgrade to bring about the end of days as the game continues, you have NO right to refuse them. Now, I know what you're going to say:
>B-b-b-but muh sanity
>B-b-b-but muh cosmic horror
>B-b-b-but mommy, eldritch abominations make me scared
Shut up. You shouldn't be DMing. Your players are trying to make something interesting out of your generic, rational setting, and you're throwing it back in their faces. You have NO right to be DMing - just give your notes to one of your players, they can do a better job than you can.
TL/DR, if you can't handle Cthulhu in a modern setting, you shouldn't be a DM.

Replace EVERYWHERE with gayposting to better reflect the thread's current state
I've been pondering it a little, /tg/, and the position of the whole archetype of Witches in fantasy gaming as a whole is kind of weird.
A large part of the identity and themes of witches, the assumptions and cliches associated with them, are heavily rooted in the idea of their transgression. Historically this was their position of opposition to christian cultural and moral values (not getting into the debate of how much was real and how much they were used as a scapegoat).
While some settings, mostly grittier low fantasy sorts, preserve the archetype of the mysterious and mistrusted, yet still useful and sometimes necessary wise woman, in a lot of other cases the witch loses their identity.
In some cases, they're still treated with an air of mistrust despite existing in a high fantasy world where none of their activities or themes are at all transgressive or opposed to the norm, while other settings preserve all the structure and cliches without actually having any of the reasons for them, witches being isolated or secretive without the setting actually providing any reasons to be so.
How would you try to bridge the gap, /tg/? How would you make witches appropriate in a higher fantasy setting, transgressing the in universe social norms in ways that were interesting seeds for storytelling and roleplaying, rather than restriction options or locking them off from player characters?
>>53484384
Were you the guy who posted the Lesbian Witches thread ten minutes ago? If so, this is a commendable second effort.
>>53484384
these days witches are more associated with their garb and items than being evil
in a high fantasy setting, where magic is common, than either witch is a fashion craze and people mistrust them the same way we mistrust scene kids or witch magic is follows a very different set of rules from the standard practice causing normal people to view them as an "other"
in either case, its not being magical per se, but their ways are not your ways
this downplays their evil, it could be a stereotype set by a few high profile case, while still giving them an excuse to live in huts at the edge of town
or you can go full anime and have a dozeb witches in town and nobody cares or stares, that is also fine with me
also, post more cute witches
>>53484421
Nah, not him, but that reminded me of it and got me to thinking about it some more. It's such a common archetype, and yet the majority of versions of it you see gloss over or lose what are key parts of it, and a lot of the time people don't seem to notice. It's kind of a shame.
Is there a way to play anima beyond fantasy without rules that suck?
>>53476375
Play the setting in a different system...? Isn't that obvious?
>>53477550
Yes, but what other games that support the thing you can do in the normal system without being so complicated
>>53478219
What do you want from Anima? Can't really help unless you tell us what draws you to it.FateorGURPSare two options, either way.

Looking for suggestions on other things to make for cover. Going for a rural farmland. Will be posting pictures. Being paid to do this with my fiancée and a friend of mine by a retro game store and tabletop game store.
Any suggestions on what else we should add? I'm gonna post maybe 15 pictures of what we currently have and what we're working on.

THICC WITCHES
Give it to me straight
How bad did 8th Edition fuck my glorious golden banana men?
How did the most OP faction in HH become one of the weakest factions in 40k?
They are weak as shit because nobody has played them yet in 8th. Wait a month for fuck sake jesus Christ.
>>53541352
The only OP thing about custodes in HH is their stupid hover-Sicarian. Beyond that there is not much particularly beastly about them, but a lot of dumb failures, like the shitty guardian spears, worthless Saggitarum, superfluous Pallas and non-Assault transport.
>but muh tankbune
Yeah, no, he's very hard to kill and that's it.
As for 8th, they look reasonable. Guardian spears are again kinda shit when compared to the sentinel blade, even with damage2 guns. Their biggest issue will be dealing with hordes,as rhey have a very low volume of attacks per model and few infantry erasers.
Here's to hoping FW will give us access to their custodes infantry and walker stuff in 40k. I could do without their vehicles.
