Why are all forgeworlds models better than gamesworkshops?

>>53440176
Delusion.

>>53440176
Because the dust that come off them from filing mould lines can cause cancer.
It's the price you have to pay.

>power armor RPG
>DH doesn't have power armour
????
Savage Worlds' Sci-fi Companion has rules for creating pretty tough Heinlein-style power armour suits that can still die.
Alternately 3:16 Carnage Amongst the Stars might work.

Do you expect characters to be out of power armor?

Cause you could just take any RPG with "more powerful than human" characters and say "but you are actually in powerarmor".

>>53439907

GURPS is rather good for it. Ultra-tech has a lot of examples of power armour by tech level, though in general they could use a bit more armour.

They work quite simply. As an item, it grants various stat boosts, then armour, environment control, and a lot of technological devices.

As an advantage, you build it for yourself as a gadget. That lets you have greater control of statting it up - but it depends on the genre if it's appropriate. Better for something like Iron Man or Guyver than Starship Troopers.

Transhuman Space: Wings of the Rising Sun had some fun orbital-drop (rescue) troopers.

Oh, the spoiler was no-GURPS...

Well, this was a waste of advice...

Bird people living up in the mountains and worshipping the sun, tough beetle people down in the mountains that're awesome blacksmiths, forest barbarian elk people with big horns and bad attitudes, and then of course plants.

Families, huh?

Artificials (golems - abandoned by their creators, some made to kill, some made to do gardening, etc), Narture-people (plant and beast-men, probably without even the -men part), Evolved Ones (take a smart animal and make it smarter - bee empire-builders, crow nomads, dolphin barbarians...), Magic Ones (elementals and shiet)

Am i going too far?

>>53439839
no, this is pretty good.
I didnt think about going this far in the first place with families, but it seems to be better than what i had in mind

>How bad would Wotc fuck up an Urza planeswalker card?

Looking at Ludevic and the other shit they've done lately: very.

>>53439457
>How would you balance it?
Rezurrect Urza without his memories and make him a colorless walker to mirror his lack of a solid personality.
Boom, now he's at neowalker power levels AND has a reason for it.

>>53441300
urza was always pretty blue. i would probably make him jeskai.

2URW
Planeswalker - Urza
+1: each player draws a card and then sacrifices a creature
-2: discard a card and deal damage to target creature equal to that cards converted mana cost
-6: you get an emblem that says "you may sacrifice permanents your opponents control and discard cards in their hands instead of your own"
Loyalty: 4

Keep looking, faggot

>>53439946
Epic.

Humans only.

Standard fantasy races, but they all have cat ears and are lolis.

>Captcha: Police avenue

>>53439041
What's your setting like?
If it's a typical high-fantasy familiar setting, go with the classics that everyone knows. If its focused on something else, like going to bizarre and wondrous places, choose a smattering of completely different races.

Alternatively, just pick the 4 or 5 that you think are coolest and move onto the parts of the setting that the players will actually pay attention to.

You gave me an idea for a plot hook:
>The party is a group of Evil characters who have meddled in the affairs of the just for the last time.
>Just when they believed they were on the verge of conquering the world, the calvary arrived and beat their asses, Death claiming their long-overdue souls.
>And he is pissed, so much so that he's not willing to take deals.
>They are given a series of trials by Death, separated by impassable trenches.
>Once the characters have fought to the next bridge across, Death gives them each one requirement they must uphold in their next trial or face a permanent debuff corresponding to their crime.
>For imposing cruelty on others in life, the party must face cruel punishment and temptation in death.
>Defy Death three times and the next time you will not be able to cross the bridge, stranding you eternally in hellish loneliness and silence.

>>53437514
>NO ONE crosses this bridge by me
>NO ONE

Entire party crosses at once.

Okay but seriously, does anybody know when THA updates the lists?

Or has he disappeared on us?

Anywho. Rolling the topic dealio.

>>53436890
He appears to roll in whenever. He'll show up.

No. System is shit, even for d20.

>>53436675

why?

>>53436653
Imagine taking the d20 system as a base, and then slapping it into a modern setting with little regard for how silly this is. It has a couple interesting ideas (I kind of like how wealth was handled, though it's still clunky), but it's bogged down by the sheer ridiculousness that it can lead to. Guns deal damage, and we have scaling health per-usual. Meat points are all well and good, but suspension of disbelief can be pushed when you repeatedly land your shots on a dude and he isn't even slowed down.

I'll semi contribute with a female elf because the one in the OP was the only male one I had

Considering fallout was based off GURPS and there is a fallout expansion online that would be the best place to start

JE Sawyer made a tabletop system for fallout. It's literally called JE Sawyer's Tabletop Fallout RPG or something.

>>53435948
Its pretty bad. We had a player with a bat that did more than an anti tank rifle on hit. Its a direct adaption from the game.

>>53435702
>Why are guns in Pathfinder so weak?
because realism only matters when it's not magic.

>Also, is this fix okay?
I'd go deeper. You get shot with a gun, you die. No save, no damage, just die.

>>53435840
Go even deeper. You get hit with a gun, the GM pulls a gun from under the table and shoots you IRL.

>>53436088
Finally a fix for path finder.

hurr durr it's gonna do robot karate and shit

hurr durr it's gonna do karate robot and shit

>>53435583
Actual answer tho:
It's shaped like an unstable lanky bastard because Eldar are shaped like unstable lanky bastards.
Easy of piloting, since the ghosts are already familiar with unstable lanky bastardry.

As to why Eldar are shaped like unstable lanky bastards...
