Hello, /tg/, outsider here, with a basic but important question: Why are you doing this?

What's so fun about sitting around a table and talking/arguing about imaginary characters in imaginary worlds? Don't you have anything better to do with your life? How about you go outside and have a good time with actual people, if you know any. Tabletops aren't 'games', I've seen how they're played and, holy shit, it's the cringiest thing i've EVER seen.

What occurrence influenced your life so bad that you gave up on sports or other better forms of entertainment to sit around with a bunch of papers, wasting your time like that?

Opinion question to all the 40k fans out there:

Which do you prefer from Warhammer artstyle? Super vibrant or ultra-gritty? I know they're not necessarily exclusive, but it's really something I find myself thinking about when painting models.

On one hand, Warhammer is probably second only to Warcraft in terms of sheer over-the-top design in western fantasy, what with all the massive shoulders and runic engravings - only losing out due to lack of things like pauldrons made of floating volcanoes.

But on the other hand it's Warhammer, and likes to play up the grit because of that, so sometimes I feel compelled to make everything look super worn-down and dirt-smeared.

Do you have preferences? Do you have favorite artists who you feel have captured the purest essence of 40k?

Why is it that the typical IG-issued lasgun(or any Las weaponry, for that matter) of the Warhammer 40k universe has been jokingly referred to as a 'flashlight' when in truth they actually aren't? If anything, they're more powerful than the standard conventional small arms of today's world.

For instance, it's easy to use, has no recoil to speak of, possess rechargeable ammunition pack, can rend through flesh, said ammo pack can be used as a makeshift grenade, is dirt cheap and can be mass produced in large quantities without trouble.

Understandably, it's not as iconic as the Astartes' standard 'gun' that can shoot armor-piercing mini-rockets at the rate of an assault rifle, but still, Las weapons seem far advanced beyond today's weapon standards with what they can do.

Post and talk about skeletons.

I’ve been playing a character who took the form of a skeleton.

Originally they were the Tsukumogami of a mansion, but then a young lady was murdered and buried on the property.

After the mansion was abandoned by the noble family that owned it the ghost of the murdered girl and the mansion spirit spent about 70 years talking playing sharing stories and spooking squatters until the mansions haunted reputation and the collapse of the nearby village meant that nobody came anymore.
30 years after THAT the ghost of the girl finally made peace and moved on. The ghost left the spirit of the mansion her remains as a parting gift.

Another 23 years later one of the wayward sons of the noble line came with his servants. He was looking to reform himself, and start a cult dedicated to the local spider goddess of love. The spirit of the old mansion decided the master and his servants (the rest of the party) were funny and pored itself into animating the bones of the murdered girl.

Since it had spent nearly its entire life essentially imprinting on and then becoming the little sister said ghost never had in life, the spirit acts like an excitable little girl fascinated by positively everything, though with hints of a darker past in its behavior and sense of humor.

The skeleton took to wearing a downsized servant's dress and white apron and is an energetic and un-nerving addition to the party who creeps the noble the fuck out, but he thing's it is the ghost of someone the his family cut short the life of so he's pretty much resigned himself to being followed by this affectionate skeleton for the rest of his days.

Being what it is, the spirit sometimes will throw tantrums if something rubs it the wrong way and if it decides it doesn't like someone or something it is rather difficult and time consuming to change it's mind.

pic unrelated to the character.

I look forward to seeing and hearing what you have to share /tg/ both serious and silly.
