Am I the only one both happy and disappointed with Morathi in T:WW?

On one hand, she is legitimately beautiful, and I'm glad that they didn't fuck that up like they did with Bretonnian women. On the other hand, it looks more like a human beauty than an elven beauty, and you can't really say that she's the most beautiful character - you could legitimately make an argument that Isabella is more beautiful. You could also make an argument the Fay Enchantress is too, but I wouldn't believe you.

It's like getting told that you're gonna get the best ice cream sundae ever, but it's just an acceptably good one.

But I like small breasts, and Morathi has a nice trim stomach. Then again, so did Hellebron when she was young...

It probably is a limitation of the engine, true, but I think people have complained - especially with the Wood Elves - that the elves don't really look that different from humans. Which is odd, since they can make dwarves look different from short humans.

The models are supposed to represent their war face when they drop the glamour and look like angry corpses.

Isabella isn't as old so she should look better. That being said, she should be as corpsey as Mannfred.

A better question is how long will it take to send Eltharion to the Old World to destroy the greenskins and rekindle the old alliance with the Dwarfs.
>>
>>54432982
It's pretty obvious that CA is only looking at the most recent models of characters and factions. I guess it makes sense, since you can't expect them to sort through decades of art and models just because some people might not like the latest looks, but it still feels lazy to me, especially when they're willing to look to lore that's very old in order to include dwarves in Lustria and such.

But who is the first Oathbreaker? Most of the High Elves involved in the War of the Beard are now dead, so I guess it might be Malekith? But they wouldn't know that he was involved.

Why, CA? Why?
>>
>>54433194
Everyone knows it was Malekith after he attacked Ulthuan. Snorri is damned to walk without rest specifically because of Malekith breaking the Oath.

Dwarfs just blame all Elves for their diminished power leading into the Time Of Woe. The actual Grudge for the war was settled with the killing of Caledor II, and any minor Grudges from conduct during the war are settled by individuals.

In ET Malekith apologizes to him actually.
The lore rape is him accepting it because Gav and Ward took turns sucking Mally off like Morathi used to.

The ET abomination had far too much Malekith for my tastes. Actually just about everything they did with the elves was horseshit.

Chaos.

Chaos wank works by telling every player, including Chaos players, "You fucking suck, your dudes suck, I'mma flip the table, now run home and cry to mommy little kek."

Dark Elf wank only offends High and Wood Elf players, Vampire wank is just against Empire.
>>
>>54433317
I haven't seen much of any Dark Elves wank, aside from the excitement over T:WW2. That's actually half the reason I like them, because even though they're kind of edgy they're not really shoved in your face unless you're a High Elf player.

Chaos wank is probably the worst, because at the end of the day no matter how good or bad a chaos fan is, they can fall back on the argument that they'll always win in the end. Even the vampire counts can't technically do that, and the Black Coaches technically make them immortal as long as they have servants to revive them.

I forgot to mention, one bad thing about vampire wank is lahmians 'we control everyone's society and have spies everywhere.' I hate that sort of stuff. But that's probably half exaggeration, and even if they do have agents everywhere, most vampires are stuck in Sylvania or in backwoods areas of the world.

Shit, most of the Vampire wank is just giving them an "infinity plus one" against Chaos.
Even Daemons aren't free from the anger of a Chaos God. All a Chaos God can do to a Vampire is kill them and leave their soul alone in the void. Not quite as bad as being consumed or tortured eternally by being cuckolded your desire.

Out of curiosity, how weird is it that Kerillian actually seems to like Sienna, Kruber and Bardin?
I was under the impression that Wood Elves were mostly assholes.
>>
>>54433434
Lahmians "control" everything, but that's almost entirely just economics. Even what we see in novels is just them owning trade routes and controlling merchants. They don't actually run politics, at least any more than any other lobbyist.

Skaven wank is worse. Their assassins can apparently reach anyone, spies hear anything, and saying the wrong thing or knowing too much is instant death, no saves allowed.
>>
>>54433484
They're Chaotic Neutral, in both that way that can be nice and that way that can be dickish.

But in Kerillian's case, I think that she's the type of Wood Elf that prefers to travel and be around other races, rather than most of her kin which prefer isolation.
>>
>>54433502
>Their assassins can apparently reach anyone, spies hear anything, and saying the wrong thing or knowing too much is instant death, no saves allowed.
This could work if half of the spies were dedicated to killing to other half, who themselves are also going to kill the first half if they get the chance too

>>54433484
Elves in general are massive cunts who act according to societal role until they learn not to like a children's cartoon character.

Teclis is only not an asshole because he spent his life a cripple loved only by his fratboy brother. Eltharion acts like a bit of a dick to other Elves, but the same amount of dickery towards other races which is less than average because he's seen that everything is out to get you in the world, and others abandon you in your time of need. The pottery of him saving long-besieged Dwarf Holds abandoned by their own kin is intentional there.

In one of the BL books almost every Elf character thinks about how much their politics and attitudes suck, and the moment two brothers that tried to kill each other drop the facade they end up laughing and being friends again.

Even in End Times of all things, the world was almost saved because Malekith bowed to a fucking Orc of all things to accomplish a mutual goal.

Same with Kerillian. She lived like a human and fought alongside a Dwarf for several months. She learned to not be a dick.

And probably because GW doesn't somehow understand that videogames aren't something to be in competition with. They only started making a lot of WFB games after the setting was dead and they considered the licence 'free.'
>>
>>54429592
Chaos winning was the best thing that could've happened to Warhammer. All the new fluff was stupid shit like turning elves into eldars and making Tomb Kings neutral instead of evil. All the models were ugly as hell also, ugly pieces of shit like demigryphs and phoenixes. Not to mention the rules, holy shit were the 8th edition rules terrible. Now GW can't ruin the fluff anymore by advancing it like they did with 40k. We have a clear stopping point after SoC, after which all new fluff can be considered new-canon and ignored. All the shitty new models are in the new game, instead of tainting the real Warhammer. And we are free to go back to previous editions for rules or editing the 8th edition to make it playable.

I'm not going to lie, but something always feels powerful about the invasion of Chaos in Total Warhammer. I really do feel like I'm part of a fragile bastion against the destruction of the world, I can see all my allies struggling and dwarves finally asking if I'm ready to fight alongside them.

It's perfectly reasonable. The most recent models are the "current" version of the characters, no matter if they haven't been revisited in 20 years.

Generally, yeah. They're supposed to look bright and colorful, and the fact that there's an occasional breastplate and helmet is good enough for me - and helps keep it from being overly colorful. Giving them a bunch of armor takes away from that Landsknecht aspect, and actually makes them look a lot more boring unless you're really into armor.

Part of why I dislike what they did with the Bretonnian Men-at-Arms is that they made them all really colorful, with almost absolutely no variation - no bits of armor to break up the constant red and blue, they all wore helmets of two types...it's a far cry from their models, which had most of their color in their shields and on bits of helmets, flags, and other things, with their clothing being mostly drab and showing a lot of leather and metal. Really makes me wish I had any skill as a modder so I could make them look that drab.

This isn't technically a unit or anything, but I'd like it if players could take a unit and make them into their own RoR.

Sure, you can rename units, but they aren't treated as if they're special. Imagine if you got them to a silver or gold rank, maybe gave them a certain banner, and you could set them up as a unique unit that you could rehire if it was destroyed. Say, if I get a unit of Questing Knights and level them up enough, and give them the Ranger's Standard, I could turn them into an RoR with that banner's unique effect, with a unique name like 'Glade Riders' or something.

The backstory was that we set off with an armoured and well funded caravan, aiming to take the Underway for as far as we can before going topside wherever the Underway proved impassable.

In the back story we went from Karaz-a-Karak to Barak-Varr, then cruised down the Blood River before diverting for Karak Eight Peaks to hook up with Belegar and deliver some supplies before taking the re-opened Underway between their and Karak Azul, dropping off a few mercenaries who were keen to try and rescue King Kazador's kidnapped family.

Shit went sideways somewhere near Karak Azgal and we got caught in an underground skirmish between the Skaven and a few tribes of Goblins. A variety of surprisingly combustible poisoned gases and a big ol' spark left most of the caravan buried under rubble and dying from a variety of wounds.

This is where the game kicked in proper. We were on the rightside of the cave-in and managed to mostly get clear. With no clear way back, we've decided to press-on. The first session was mostly character-interaction heavy, getting to know who everyone else is playing and the few NPCs we've still got, as well as a few combat encounters as we went through an organized retreat from pursuing Skaven outliers.

So this is where we left off.

Of the group we have:
>Skaldor Grondsnev, Physicians Student
>Thrund Thrundsson, Soldier
>Grimli Durazklad, Artisan's Apprentice
>And me, Alrik Valmafind, Student
>And three other NPCs that survived - a Thane, a Mercenary, and a Lodefinder
>>
>>54435298
But here's the kicker - the GM had arranged with me previously to play a Chaos Dwarf spy, infiltrated in on a fact-gathering mission and to ensure our western brethren don't reclaim anything that could help them raise their culture back to it's golden heights.

I'm playing a Level 2 Sorcerer whose hooves and lower legs have been turned to stone, but he seems to be hinting that I'm in the process of becoming a Bull Centaur, so I'm not entirely sure what's going on there.

I'm expecting the GM to throw in some elements from the Doomstones campaign, based on little clues he's dropped, so if that comes into play my character will be trying to subtely ensure he's the only one who makes it out with them. But other than that, I'm not sure what sort of goals or even deeper motivations my character should have. As much as I like my DORFS, I've never really explored Chaos Dwarfs much.

Help?

No, I hate the 8th ed state troop models. The clothing should be colourful by all means, certainly give them ostrich plumes and slashed clothing, but I still want them to look like a proper fighting force like the empire troopers from when I played back in the day.

Cuirass+helmet is the bare minimum any halberdier should have imo. I'd like to go further and give them the odd bit of chain. Modders often overdo it and add silly shoulderpads, but their heart's in the right place.

>>54435683
Consider that bretonnians spend a lot of time fighting each other, and anything that evens the playing field between peasant and knight is fundamentally un-bretonnian.

Crossbows were literally banned by the pope for being unchivalrous at one point.
>>
>>54435870
That's right, I'm all the people you hate and have multiple contradictory opinions just to make it easier to hate me.
>>
I am actually pretty buttmad about this though, because WFRP 3 was a very cool and innovative concept that badly, badly needed another round of revision and playtesting to cut back some of the insane bloat. But it was the first fantasy adventure RPG in a long time to look like it was doing something interesting.
>>
>>54435898
Do the Bretonnians fight each other a lot? They've never had any civil wars, unless you count battles against Mousilion. There are some petty squabbles between lords, sure, but usually it seems like they're fighting off Orcs or Norscan raiders.
>>
>>54435972

FFG did what they do best, they used another IP to test something they would successfully apply to a Star Wars game.

I think C7 will do a great job (hopefully) because they 1. sort the IP out and weren't given it in a package and 2. they have a background in the fantasy genre and have had success with middle-earth.
>>
>>54435850
4th Ed could be a carbon-copy of 2nd Ed and it will still be the best thing to happen to WFRP if they just start printing more splats.

Fuck it, I would not complain at all if they just said 'Hey, use 2nd Ed, we're just making expansion books full of fluff and a little crunch'.
>>
>>54436104

They may go down this route, on the other hand C7 has a house style that they may follow (it's been well received if that's any concern).
>>
>>54436104
I'm not sure if it's legally possible, but I wouldn't mind it. It'd mean that they wouldn't have to feel pressure to change or surpass what 2e already set up, and what many fans already like - just add onto things, perhaps tweak some of the stranger parts take out ]Bretonnian squires or explain them properly please, I've got my own headcanon but it's not enough and then they can build on their own ideas. We don't need the Old World all over again, we've already got that in various forms - we really need the flavors of Elves, Ogres, even Orcs.

I would think about loose, switching coalitions or sth like that.

>>
>>54438649

Hmm...depends on the initiating cause. If it was following something like Valten's death at the hands of Ulrican extremists, it would start as a religious sundering before being co-opted into a political expedient.

The real trick is the situation - a post Storm of Chaos would be a good time for it, since so much of the Empire is in ruins, it would be a perfect time for an ambitious Elector to try and claim more territory for themselves.
>>
>>54438758
I don't think so. You hardly go on a land grab, when it's pesant you lack and land is in abduance (and ruins). War demands supplies. Pre-SoC is somewhat better because everyone grew overconfident and Chaos wants a civil war.

Theodoric_Gausser_por_Sam_Wood.jpg
129KB, 686x934px
>>54438649
Let me try and spin out a scenario:

Theodoric Gausser, the Elector Count of Nordland, is a warlike dude who tried to take territory from Hochland (this is lore). Let's say in this scenario, he dies unexpectedly, and Hochland is still smarting from his near-assault (or maybe he managed it in this scenario). Nordland is strange in that they have a number of claims to land in other provinces in the north, which is turned against them in this scenario as Hochland starts demanding some land in recompense for Nordlander aggression. Ostland joins in on this. Nothing comes of it, but it causes tensions to grow under the surface between the provinces in a way that Karl Franz can't solve easy.

A fun 'spark' in my mind would be some Marienburgers trying to rescue an impounded ship at a dock in Ostland. Their yellow, blue and red colors are mistaken for the yellow and blue of Nordland, and the rumor mill turns the story into a vicious assault by those Nordlanders. As skirmishes begin to turn into civil war, something kicks off a religious aspect to things - Ulricans in Nordland and Sigmarites in Hochland and Ostland start seeing this conflict as an extension of their own quarrels.

At the point that this is turning into a civil war the Emperor tries to step in, but at this point Middenlanders are worked up over the conflict and Ulricans are swarming to join their 'brothers of the North' and warning that any Reiklander interference will cause trouble, a warning that is emphasized by a brawl-turned-riot in Carroburg. Wissenland is far from the troubles and unconcerned, but being dutiful Sigmarites support Reikland in whatever it does. Then you can work in some other provinces if you like - maybe Marienburg throws their hat in the ring since Theodoric claimed to be the 'Duke of Marienburg' and there's an opportunity to gain more influence either way. Zealous Tabalclanders take up arms to support the Taal-worshiping population in Hochland.

I don't know why you're asking me, but don't. Logically speaking it's the best choice: if you're dead, you can't go back to being alive. If you're alive, you can fix your life, go do something completely different that makes you happy, or if life still sucks you can die. Go with the option that provides more options and doesn't permanently close the door on others.

Just don't forget you don't get to be a necromancer if you go. And that you'll never be raised by a necromancer back into a semblance of life. And that even if a necromancer were to do that, he'd berate you for posting off-topic.
>>
>>54439648
Options are interesting, anyway.
That makes logical sense.
>>
>>54439667
I understand logic may not be the most comforting when it's probably emotions that are driving you to even consider suicide, as is the weakness of all flesh. But it's good to remind you that whatever rut you're in or depression you feel, it won't last for the rest of your life - and it will never last as long as the timeless cities of Nehekhara, whose splendor still rises from the flowing sands that now surround it.

Counterpoint, we have no proof to suggest you can't come back from being dead. There is at least one instance of this happening according to widely held mythology.

For all we know being dead could be amazing - so much so that no-one wants to come back from being dead because it is so fun.

Kill yourself and tell us what it's like after, for science.

No one is the real protector of the world. Lizardmen basically camp in Lustria, around arguably some important shit but they aren't working to save the world from every Chaos invasion. The High Elves try to keep control of everything but a lot is out of their grasp and they're not as powerful as they used to be, half their influence these days is through trade. And the Empire can really only focus on keeping itself together, and it's mere happenstance that means it's protecting the nations around it.

Moving down the list past the obvious no's like Dark Elves and Chaos, the Dwarves are too stubborn and insular and can barely keep their Dwarven Empire together, the Bretonnians are inward focused as well and their crusades and Erranty Wars really don't shift the balance much...I guess the best argument I can make is for Kislev, because it takes the brunt of just about every Chaos invasion every damn time. It may not mean to protect the world, but it's the first line of defense.

So apparently these are both 6th edition, one original, the other revised.

What should i use for my games? Is using the revised considered a dickass move since it covers the gap between 6th and 7th edition?
I noticed that on average there are more options and cheaper runes in the revised edition, but th older one has some pretty unstoppable shit (auto-hit, auto-wound)

I do admit they kind of fucked up with the Bretonnian ladies. I don't know why, and I don't think any mods so far have really fixed them. Maybe they didn't put as much work into a FreeLC? Not trying to hate, but I do think there's a little less quality in them compared to what we see in armies behind paid DLCs. Maybe it was just because they were half-in already.

2nd ED wasn't bad but it had a ton of problems. Like the entire magic system and horrible lack of balance between pretty much everything.

They need to update it quite a bit to compete with stuff out today.
>>
>>54441309
The magic system was fine.

Balance is mostly a problem in weapons, and easily houseruled.

Careers aren't supposed to be balanced.

>>54441309
I played 2nd ED quite a lot and never saw any balanceing issues
>>
>>54441309
>horrible lack of balance
Never saw a balance issue except when people did baseless theorycrafting. In actual play, I saw no issues.

The only issue with magic was sometimes inconsistent wording and how autistic readings could lead to things like Fire magic not setting things on fire.

Weapons aren't really unbalanced either, except by design, it's just that sometimes it's hard to tell what they were going for. Using the alternate rules in the Old World Armory lead to some wonkyness, though, and since I enjoy breaking up weapons into different actual weapons (even if they get the same stats), that could use some work.

But that's about it.

Lores were absolutely unbalanced with each other and 3/4 of spells were garbage while some were incredibly broken.

Also 10% of going mad every time you cast a spell as new mage. Along with higher miscast chance the more powerful you get making rolling more than Magic 2 pointless in most situations.

The ability to duel. Suggested this before, but have a button at the prebattle screen to issue a challenge. 2 lords/heros duke it out, winner gets a bonus to leadership for fight. You can refuse a challenge but suffer leadership loss (unless skaven/vamps of course).
Also make the arena smaller for the duel. Only way to do a 1v1 right now is 14 minutes of walking to eachother.

The setting does have a number of female special characters or units in it.

They just aren't all included in Total Warhammer (yet?), but there has been a fair amount of models for them over the history of the game.

I hope all the Elector Counts are added to the game as 'Generic Legendary Lords', which would include a female Elector Count amongst them.

You did not increase the mischance potential by becoming a stronger mage - you increased the mischance potential by using more power than you should (ie: rolling extra dice instead of relying on channelling and using the proper ingredients).

Skaven Breeders are biologically modified to make them excellent breeders. It's not impossible that a female skaven, if not caught at birth at modified like the rest of her gender, could just grow up to be a normal rat(wo)man.

The excuse for Dwarfs not having any females displayed in art or the tabletop is something like "since they are a semi-dying race they protect their womenfolk intensely and thus you don't see them leaving the holds" right?

They had some female dorf models LONG AGO, IN THE DISTANT PAST since I remember having the card game where the art was pictures of ancient GW models.

It's more like what the other one said, because this logic would apply to high elves as well. They don't need to throw all their females on the battlefield, but just some more important female characters for dwarves with be nice, just to have some diversity

>>54442171

So, ignoring the maths on going up in miscasts because I am not great with maths:

>At this level only 1/10 chance of taking d10 damage
>So we are at a 1/1000 chance at this stage of taking 1d10 damage
>If you're not a dunce and took a minute to set up a spell circle, you can re-roll one of your d10 in the casting step
>So now you're at 1/10,000 chance of taking damage.

Again, that's just at triples and ignoring deeper maths - but I've honestly never seen a miscast of greater than a triple, and I've only seen damage be a result from a miscast a bare handful of time.

Legally, dwarf women are the equal of men, can divorce, hold office, hold any job, and refuse any marriage for any reason. Practically, the demands of duty, tradition, and honor chain women as heavily as men. Female dwarf warriors happen, but they're rare outside of vagabond mercs, rangers, and maybe slayers. Male dwarfs consider protecting their non-numerous women a top priority, and a failure to do so is a terrible humiliation.

You can't far in the under empire without someone knowing something. Females are a legit form of currency for them, there is not a single skaven who wouldn't exploit a female should she some how avoid detection. There are more ways then tits and vag to identify, and for a race that bases alot on scent, it's just not happening. Skaven don't need companionship and are actually distrust in of things that get too close, so there no real hook of "warlord who just wanted a waifu" or some shit.

The race itself isn't just some misunderstood fuzzy animals, they are the children of a greater deamon who could be a love child of tzeentch and nurgle. They are born evil. A "skaven who grew up away from the under empire" wouldn't work either (see clan carrion, nomadic tribe of skaven).

People pushing for female skaven rarly have a decent reason other the terrible waifu garbage. It's always depicted as some pseudo furry fan want with eye liner.
Acceptable:
>skaven breeder is particularly vicious, kills and eats her mates, eventually tossed out, loses warp addle, and comes back as a grotesque black widow clan lord who gathered slaves. She is deranged and hideous. One clan see potential in an attack dog warband.

>one breeder gets some real nasty plague. Clan pestalins moves into to experiment, devises some wicked diseases. She is held in high religious regard as a gift from horned rat, warp addle wears off. She starts to back stab her way into a warlord.

A foreign state that you think is failing at stopping its own people from raiding your caravans. After asking him to explain the situation and handle it, the leader decides to offend your ambassador culturally by doing a taboo.

Essentially this is the same as sending an ambassador to some country today with him getting raped and saying "go back to your country and tell him how big of a little bitch his state is".

Dwarf ambassador was an idiot who demanded crap elves would never agree to and refused to listen. And in earlier editions it also mentioned how he drew a weapon.

Then after war started midgets attacked the same city 14 times retreating with gigantic loses every time until elf king was so tired of this he charged at them like a retard.

There isn't a lot on breeders just as a general rule, but for a race that weaponizes rats you don't think they'd modify breeders to make them larger and better to breed?

I mean, after all - female rats are smaller than males.

Not really. That seems a bit beyond their expertise. Besides, fucking with the breeder would probably fuck with the Skaven that come out, and Skaven are pretty stable.

>female rats are smaller than males.

Skaven aren't rats though, they're Skaven. They're supposed to be man with the worst traits exaggerated. Hence female are mere breeding machines.

Death lore honestly has some terrifying spells. Witherlimb basically ends melee combatants entirely, since you can systematically cripple them.

they are all male. Females are necessary for rats. It would make sense for clans to keep their females off hands from mad scientist characters, especially as skaven "tech" is just throwing warpstone until stuff happens.

Rats fused with wolves

They can fuse shit together, but nothing suggests they have the capability to modifiy something as exact as breeding.

First is touch spall that required target to be at 0hp. Second has casting number of 31 meaning it's absolutely worthless.

With a high casting number and WP saving throw. It's still the only not terrible death combat spell. Limbwither is also useful. That's it.

What is channeling.
What are re-rolls.
What are magic items (bit of a wild card, though).
What is a Familiar.
What are spell reagents.

An opposed willpower test with a high level wizard is pretty much a death sentence.
>>
>>54442927

Assuming an average roll of 5 on 4 dice? You would automatically meet the roll with channeling and a reagent. And the reagent for that spell is a 50g amethyst. Not hard to get in the slightest (compared to some other spell reagents, at least). If you're still playing WFRP when you're wielding 4 magic dice, 50g is chump change.
>>
>>54442899
I'm not referring to swift passage. Get realm of sorcery, there's a spell to literally bottle souls.
>>
>>54442952

Those spells have long casting times meaning channeling adds entire round of casting.

Reagents for them are incredibly rare and expensive.

And if you are really considering rolling 5 dice for a spell when greater manifestations exist you are asking for it.

It's literally always better to spam cheaper spells every round. No risk, you can channel or move in the same turn and over 3 turns of casting fireballs you will do more damage than one big cast anyways.

Also, even with 5 dice rolling 31 is not easy at all. you will fail half of the time getting manifestations and wasting 2-3 rounds every time.

>confusing biological and genetic augmentation.

Are you old enough to shave? Skaven build fucking rockets, engineer plagues and breed genetic abominations. But pumping a female to make her a bloated breed-queen is somehow beyond them?

>Skaven aren't rats though, they're Skaven
>Ratmen aren't rats. News at 11.

>>54442885
>They can fuse rats and wolves, rats and ogres and rats and rats.
>But they can't make a female rat more suited to giving birth.

Jesus anon, think before you type. They can fuck with a skaven to make them bigger and tougher, but you don't think they can fuck with a female skaven to make her biiger and tougher?
>>
>>54443026
>If I pump you full of steroids, your kids aren't going to come out ripped.

Drugs do effect the unborn. Steroids wouldn't make you better at breeding either.

>Skaven build fucking rockets, engineer plagues and breed genetic abominations. But pumping a female to make her a bloated breed-queen is somehow beyond them?

Yes. One is physics, the other is plague magic, "genetic" abominations are just things mashed together with warp stone and surgery.

Altering the breeding mechanism to create a superior breeder is something different.
>>
why are you arguing whether skaven can or cannot mutate something to do something when they are the race with the almost complete monopoly on the solid magical mutagenic of the setting?
>>
>>54443018

Are you really talking about a touch spell with 2round casting time and difficulty of 29 like it was easy to do? Really?

This shit looks great on paper when in reality it's almost unusable.
>>
>>54443085
I don't think you're even convincing yourself. You agree that skaven warpstone fuckery can create CONSISTENT RESULTS in making things like Rat ogres, but you don't think that making a female rat tougher, larger and more fertile is a possibility - even when they have literal magic to draw on?
>>
>>54443133
Because the way they mutate something is different. In order to mutate something to breed better you'd need advanced gene editing.
Skaven just ram shit together, apply warpstone and hope it sticks.

>>54443168
That's correct, nothing suggests that Skaven breeders are abnormal Skaven females.
>>
>>54443022
>Those spells have long casting times meaning channeling adds entire round of casting.

Fortune point to a free half action for channeling. Or a master wizard's staff to make channeling free.
>>
>>54443180
>That's correct, nothing suggests that Skaven breeders are abnormal Skaven females.

Except for the fact that they are consistently drugged since birth with warpstone, at the very least.
>>
>>54443216
And that doesn't suggest they're abnormal.
Skaven eat warpstone given the opportunity.
Breeders are pampered if anything.
>>
>>54443247
I think the weirdest part of this discussion is your unspoken contention that, despite the Skavens almost stereotypical impulse to meddle and 'improve', and the fact that they literally treat females like currency, you seem to believe they have too much respect for their broodmothers that they drug to keep docile and wouldn't be fucjing atound with them.

Also the implication that you seem to think you know exactly how skaven abominations are made, how their magic works and how there's apparently 'no way' that the skaven would be doing the same thing to their females.
>>
>>54443209

Why are you wasting fortune points or risking expensive reagents with high failure chance when you can do the same or better dps spamming Fireball?

Only big templates are sometimes worth it.
>>
>>54443338
>you seem to believe they have too much respect for their broodmothers

Nope, they've alternated females before. I'm just arguing that their natural state is bloated breeding machines.

>Also the implication that you seem to think you know exactly how skaven abominations are made

We do, and it's not through careful gene augmentation, it's just slapping shit together.

I agree that when it comes to Lore of Fire's stick, that is doing dps with some buffs on the side, it doesn't scale all too well as you progress. I mean, you get first a dmg 4 firebolt at half-action-speed and Casting Number 6, then you get fireball which is also a half action and between 2 and 4 dmg 3 hits at CN 12, so it is superior upgrade. But then you get Fiery Blast at CN 22 which is a full-action, and it is between 2 or 3 and 10 dmg 4 hits, so it is an upgrade, but it seems that fireball is a better choice in terms of the CN and the Curse of Tzeentch.

But I find that other lores have better spell progressions than lore of fire. Lore of Light has Banish at CN 13 and Daemonbane at CN 26. The casting number is doubled, but Daemonbane is only one will test for the affected daemons to resist, while Banish can devolve into a battle of wills bewteen caster and daemon.
>>
>>54441990

In Grey Seer there is a Grey Seer that uses two females as bodyguards, though they also seem devoid of intelligence. As I recall they looked something like halfway between a skaven and rat-ogre.
>>
>>54443607

The problem is high casting number spells require more dice making manifestations more common and dangerous. They also fail often. Even a very good caster will fail them at least 30% of the time. With that you lost two turns and expensive reagents.

It's just not worth it when you can use cheaper spells with almost 90% success rate and no risks involved.

1) The coins thing was an isolated incident, and in real life similar thongs have occurred.
