And this is why 2e/AD&D > any later edition.

One of those edition's has balance issues.

Would you say this is easier to play than 40k (Kill Team)?

>>53169716
Absolutely

Anyone have the PDF with printable terrain handy?

Slaanesh is done. First the Horned King BTFO her on WHF, and now the Ynnari are going to do the same on 40K. Ynnead will be the new Chaos god.

GW aren't stupid, they know if they released Emperor's Children and slaanesh themed models they would be popular.

New noise marines and a Daemon Primach Fulgrim. I would buy that shit in a heartbeat.

Why jack the copypasta from the Warhammer Fantasy General and try to rebrand the thread Warhammer Fantasy Battle?

Half the things in the copypasta doesn't even relate to Warhammer Fantasy Battles specifically.

Not a lot of interesting juice in this one, besides the characterization of above, which I found cool. Ending was predictable and I'm annoyed that Samut's knowledge of the truth stems from a single room she found, rather than some cumultivation of other things or hunch.

Woo, I almost started a new thread.

Thread Challenge: Name your totally unique Combat Schools

what do you teach, what do you specialize in and most importantly what is the name of your School that strikes fear into the hearts of all that hear it?

Heaven's Thrust of the Bastard

We would fill our ranks with the many unwanted Children around town
We would teach different Bastard Swording techniques but mostly all of our schools hierarchy would be built around how many women you could get pregnant.

D&D has many legitimate flaws, varying from edition to edition. What you describe is not, and has never been one of them, at least in terms of traits the system possesses.

You're right, every single system out there is easier and faster than D&D, there's definitely not any games that are more cumbersome.

I used to have this ultra-fluffy, totally non-competitive Warriors of Chaos army. It was small, barely above skirmish level.

Basically it was a Norscan raiding party. So lots of Marauders, some Warhounds and practically no magic or Chaos fuckery. The idea was that the Chaos Lord in charge had only just started to attract the attention of the Gods and that the more I won the more Chaos-y my army would get.

Let's get this thread rolling!

My AdMech dudes are from Forge World Aldris VII.

They're tasked with restoring ancient blueprints recovered by the exploratory fleets of the Adeptus Mechanicus and deliver functioning prototypes for the tools and weaponry they recreate.

The planet has been surrounded and under siege by Orks from every side for millennia, holding their ground against the never-ending green tide. This generations long conflict and the breaking of several Waaghs trying to prove their dominance over the remaining Ork warbands in the sector by finally krumping the AdMech, their forge has taken on a reputation as being able to constantly keep (re)building everything and anything, as the experimental tools of war they reclaim from the blueprints are always tested on whichever Ork Klan is currently buzzing around the planet's surface.
This has led to the peculiar development that the Ork's influence and opinion that it's possible for them to get everything to work actually does cause every blueprint they attempt to rebuild does, in fact, work. While inside the Orks' psychic influence.
The moment any prototype leaves the sector, the practically immediately fall apart, effectively delivering a heap of scrap to their superiors on Mars. This has caused Archmagos Tolra Darus to be in a near constant state of anger and fury against the "damn sabotaging Greenskins", fully unaware that it is merely their subconscious opinion of the World that causes things to work and also stop working.

Nonetheless, him constantly being ripped of chances to climb into the higher echelons of the AdMech and not gaining additional support from Mars itself caused Darus to make the fight against the Orks a personal vendetta, constructing a personal assault frame in order to take on any Warboss challenging his Forge World by himself and venting his anger against them that way.

Gonna make an updated army-shoot once my Kastelans are done.

>I talked with DM and he told me to solve it ingame.
Tell your GM that he is a colossal faggot, only he can't draw.

I've done this. Used d20 modern, don't use that. Use Fate. Use Gurps. depending on how you want your game to feel

>>53139860
My guess would've been Call of Cthulu, is there a reason you're not using that?

>>53139944
This, and just make judgement calls when the rules fail.

>>53134285
You pretty much just described Talisman for me.
I don't know how I'd fix it though

Is there anyway to fix Terra Mystica so that it's not broken?

The D&D Adventure series games. I like the easy to play dungeon crawling, but the slow chipping away of player health with how the phases go, it feels like you just have to slog through it until you reach that one important tile you need buried in the stack. There's a better game in the box, and I'm sure the rules would only need a little modification to make it all work.

While we're all on the subject of genestealers, would you guys play a game where the players are genestealer cultists? What system would work best? How would corruption and insanity work? What classes would there be?

To a techpriest, what is rust? How would one react if they found rust forming one one of their cybernetics or on someone they knew?

>>53126881
I'd imagine like it being seen as like self harm, like something the emo kid would do.

It is 72 years since the Second World War officially ended in Europe. Scattered fighting continued in northern Czechoslovakia as the final ember of the Reich died. From Moscow to Los Angeles, people celebrated. In London, crowds massed in Trafalgar Square and up the Mall to Buckingham Palace, where King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, accompanied by Prime Minister Winston Churchill, appeared on the balcony of the palace before the cheering crowds. Princess Elizabeth (the future Queen Elizabeth II) and her sister Princess Margaret were allowed to wander incognito among the crowds and take part in the celebrations.

In the United States, the victory happened on President Harry Truman's 61st birthday. He dedicated the victory to the memory of his predecessor, Franklin D. Roosevelt, who had died of a cerebral hemorrhage less than a month earlier, on 12 April. Flags remained at half-mast for the remainder of the 30-day mourning period. Truman said of dedicating the victory to Roosevelt's memory and keeping the flags at half-mast that his only wish was "that Franklin D. Roosevelt had lived to witness this day." Massive celebrations also took place in Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami and especially in New York's Times Square.

As the Soviet representative in Reims had no authority to sign the German instrument of surrender, the Soviet leadership proposed to consider Reims surrender as a "preliminary" act. The surrender ceremony was repeated in Berlin on 8 May, where the instrument of surrender was signed by supreme German military commander Wilhelm Keitel, by Georgy Zhukov and Allied representatives. Since the Soviet Union was to the east of Germany, it was 9 May Moscow time when the German military surrender became effective, which is why Russia and most of the former Soviet republics commemorate Victory Day on 9 May instead of 8 May 1945.

As a MTG player, play a better game. These are my thoughts to be honest. Most Yugioh matches are decided in the first 2 turns from what I've seen, and ragequit matches aren't fun.
