My Girlfriend and I sold our painted minis for more than their unpainted value, and we didn't even try that hard! Why do people think it's that hard? Now we can finally afford the gender reassignment surgery so we can fuck as only a woman and a man can. It's really great because we only have to pay the co-pay... our insurance covers the rest!

What say you all to the vicious rumours that the M&SU is connected to a vicious terrorist organization? Clearly the bourgeoisie are getting desperate to make up such unfounded claims.

Anyone here play Henchman Hardcore? Do you tend to use similar models to your normal games or do you have some separate models you only end up using for HH?

Finally as there were Whiskey Gamin present in the adepticon models is the age of brewmaster dominance around the corner?

What would in your opinions be tier 1 factions and crews? Just starting the game and I already bought some crews I liked visually (Freikorps and Misaki), but my area also has a fairly competitive tournament scene so I was wondering if there were crews to pay attention to or avoid in a competitive setting.

It makes me disproportianately ahppy when Malifaux models come with extra bits.
Funny because I (of course) started with GW models, which was drowning in spare bits int eh 200s.

The Rail Workers are big favourites of mine for this reason.

What do the spare legs look like?
Aren't they already braced and strapped up int eh Freikorps suit?
How would they need robotisation?

Traveller is a classic science fiction system first released in 1968. In its original release it was a general purpose SF system, but a setting was soon developed called The Third Imperium, based on classic space opera tropes of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, with a slight noir tint.
Though it can support a wide range of game types, the classic campaign involves a group of retired veterans tooling around in a spaceship, taking whatever jobs they can find in a desperate bid to stay in business, a la Firefly or Cowboy Bebop.

I haven't played Traveller, but I've been wanting to do a sci-fi game with my group.

For a group that mainly plays 5e, but is open to new systems, which edition would be best to start with? I know T20 is based on the d20 system, like 5e, but is it actually good?

Never played T20, apparently it's shite.

I'd go with Mongoose, either 1st or 2nd if you want something more modern(more rules and stats and shit, but not autisticly so).
1st has more stuff for it, but it's spread out across a bunch of books.
2nd has more stuff in the core book(shit like university) but they made a dick move by putting the spaceship-building rules in a supplement. But if you're not going to buy the books that isn't a problem

If OSR is your thing, Classic Traveller or Cepheus Engine (An OGL retro-clone of classic) might be what you want. Cepheus is slightly more complicated, but is laid out better than Classic.
Both are simpler than Mongoose, with stuff like character having less skills, but being assumed to be generally competent at spessmen things.
The example that's always given is Luke Skywalker in New Hope having his entire skill list be "Pilot-1"
Mongoose characters have about a half-dozen to a dozen skills, and take a penalty if they try something they aren't skilled in.

Though the thing about Traveller is that it's super modular, especially among the editions mentioned above. Once you get a handle on it you can steal bits you like from other editions.

But for now, if you're used to 5e, I'd definitely go with Mongoose, and personally I'd go for 2nd Edition

Do you know how Traveller basically works? ie. the dying in chargen meme and all that

Armor is overrated.

if i need say 12 shots to kill a high armor target and i can buy 6 of that one shot unit for same poitns it costs to bring 1 of those high armor units.. i'll just spam the low cost unit because odds are i will get the kills before the lower number of models can wipe me out.

that's why the bmp spam is far superior to m1 abrams.

>>52862866
>armor is overrated.
>why? simple math.
>if it takes me 12 shots with 1 weapon to kill a high armor tank and i can bring 6 of them for every 1 the enemy has then it behooves me to take as many as i can so i can get enough rolls to win the attrition war.
>that's why the bmp spam is far superior to m1 abrams.

Yeah, the BMP's the only competitive option, but, again, how does this help people with T-72s?

they shouldn't bother with the t-72s .. that's who it helps them .. helps them avoid spending money on useless units if they want a competetive list.

The new L5R owners FFG put out a bunch of info on the new LCG version on their site located here: https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2017/4/19/legend-of-the-five-rings-the-card-game/

There's also a designer interview here which got me more interested in the LCG than their site did, to be honest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC_IZqqcxxI

This thread is to talk the CCG, new LCG thoughts, RPG stories or mechanical questions and the perennial favorite topic of 'why your favorite clan is shit and mine is best'.

So to start it off, what do people think of that Fate mechanic where your cards drift out of play over the course of a game? I actually like the idea, so rather than losing all your dudes in a conflict it is more about rationing resources to make sure you have what you need when those conflicts happen.

EIGHTH FOR THE EIGHTH

I'm going to run a session with one of my players tomorrow. but I'm stuck on ideas and i could use some help.

normally i build the session around something the player is lacking in, like role play or strategy in order to help them improve, but this player doesn't really need help since hes been around for a long time. which has stunted me on what to focus the session around.

the character is searching for the party members of his fathers old adventuring party and i figure I'm going to have each private session focus around finding one of them and learning something from them. but since i dont have easy mode anymore, i need some ideas.

i was thinking about making this first mentor have a gambling problem and hes in debt, the player has to fix his debt problem and then the master will teach what he knows. but that seems like a bland session.

so i come to you guys, it helps to get other points of view, people who think in other boxes than i do.

I've only been playing tabletop for about a year now (I played and DM'd in DnD 5e and I've been reading about GURPS for the past few days) and I've fallen in love with the concept of both roleplaying your characters and the turn-based combat that DnD provides. However, while it's been pretty fun, I'm a bit of a history buff and I would love to play campaigns featuring military espionage and mercenary companies in more contemporary settings such as the Cold War.

When I've asked what system to use for this, I've mostly been recommended GURPS, but I'm trying to look into other systems too. Mostly because I'd like it to be pretty open-ended (have rules and tables for being able to operate military vehicles and using several kinds of firearms, including automatic rifles and pistols; along with other features that aren't really viable through DnD 5e).

TL;DR: Basically, I want to know what's the best system to do a campaign centered around fighting in 20th century wars like the Rhodesian Bush War and the Vietnam War.

Its been a while.
It focuses on the people more with sparse vehicle rules.
If you want better vehicle rules you could refluff Only War which is about playing Guard in WH40k
