Archived threads in /tg/ - Traditional Games - 1398. page

Anyways, ignoring the Anime thread- when are we going to get the official DSP Akashic/Initiator PrC, the PHAROAH?

Why has Akashic Mysteries been left in the dust?

Will homebrewers have to pick up DSP's slack?

Does it count if we were underground in the basement of a tower?

>>52539963
Can we not do two threads again?

Everything you do as a human being is a waste of time spent in futility as you wait for the end of your life.

Might as well have fun with it.

>>52539356
Yes, yes. "Time enjoyed is time well spent" and all that shit.

But if I were to read a book, after I do, I will have read that book.
If I draw something, I will become better, and in the end, will be able to draw better.
And I'd still enjoy it, you know?

>>52539699
So do that. Do what you wanna do man.

Why did we drop the TGA rumour thread, guys?

>>52538688

Normal dwarf troops will be whatever like fyreslayers

Elites will be passable but probably still only okay

Airships will be beastclaw raiders behemoth overpowered tier

That is clearly not a rogue.

Token synergies look fun. I hope there's a new toy for B/W modern tokens.

Kefnet the Careful
2U
Legendary Creature - God
Flying, indestructible

Kefnet the Careful can't attack or block unless you have seven or more cards in hand.

3U: Return a land you control to it's owner's hand. You may draw a card.

Some disagreement over parts of the translation. If you're korean or have an english version, feel free to chime in.

Hmmm, he's brutal, but also cunning.

Zem Gains got so big, other orks began to see him as competition. Once you get big enough, them other big fish start seein' you as a threat to rule. And so, inevitably, Zem Gains got just a hair bigger n' tha biggest local ork Nob. Closest thing to a Warboss named Nub Bite'a.

Every shell fired, Zem just avoided, loike he knew exactly where tha boss was going to shoot. Every swing of the choppa hit air as he ran outta shots. Zem Gains then up and broke Nub Bite'a's choppah and armor with some well placed blows, all but leavin' the boss naked. Try as he moight, Nub wasn't strong enough to punch, kick or e'en bite to do damage. Protracted long enough that Nub just ran out of energy an' fell over, exhausted and hungry. Not a gouge or broken bone on'im. No noble or honorable fight, no violence, no resolution, no death, no passion, no major expulsion of warp or tricks.

Nub "won," via actually being the one to punch and kick and bite. But it didn't matta. Zem still gained from the fight. The War Boss went on leadin' the boyz, outwardly in charge, but everybody knew it was the Weird Boy callin' the shots if he wanted it. A handful of orks even decided to hang out with Zem, curious.

Well, long story short, that Weird Boy spawned a culture of aescetic Orks. Easily mistaken for Ferals, they deliberately abstain from killin' conquering an' the joys of carnage. The biggest joy and victories they get is vexin' the whole damned universe through non-confrontation, avoidance, and if necessary, passionless and quick dispatchin'. Trading out choppas and shootas for personal shields, teleportas, they use vehicles to either flee from range or get right into melee with tha biggest commandin' officer on the field, or strategic target. What melee weapons they make are their pride an' joy, the result of practice and obsession an' craftsorkship.

>>52537438
Do it sound loike they just are scared sissies? Oh no no no.

The Ascetic Orks is no wusses. They fightin' enemies bigger than you, every day of their lives. Mortals ain't worth the ripples they make in da warp.

You want to make an Ascetic Ork tha happiest fing for a light year, you put'em on a planet with Daemons on it. Soz the Weird Boy can pick out 'iz prey, pursue and end it. Quiet as a sleepin' squig, violent as a disease. Quick and decisive, minimizin' drama.

Theys even made schools wot specialized n'daemon killin'. Usin' logic ta smash tha puzzles n'nonsense of Tzeench. Usin' Ork Tek to bust up daemons an' slap around immaterials. Literally. Gloves wot let'em punch ghosts, mate! Some enterprisin' tek boys even learned how to rename Daemons an' stick'em in empty cans, only lettin'em out soz weaker Ascetic Orks can foight'em for a laff.

They made schools for their Pain Boyz and Squig Herderz wot focus on reversin' plagues. Cuz orks is smart; if folks ain't sufferin', folks ain't praisin' Papa Nurgs, roight? Of course this means sometimes they invade planets and sow discord by.. distributing plague cures. By force. Even if it results in carnage, it ultimately reduces the mortality and suffering by billions of lives and decades to centuries of prolonged misery.

No Chaos God suffers more against the Orks than Slaanesh, who draws power from passion and feeling. The only feeling they train'emselves to have is joy at starvin' chaos. Low brutality, low indulgence. Brutally cunnin' in fightin' the Chaos God of Passion.

They hate Chaos, so much.

Depends on the setting.

The martial needs a special kind of armor to protect against magic: plot armor.

Dick move on the GM's part. Should've told you while you were making the character.

He said that real life smithing takes a lot of time. Is that the case?

Oh, this thread won't be complete shit.

Diversity in gaming is good, and people breaking the stereotype of playing straight white males is to be encouraged.

>>52535217
Actually painting my first boys soon, going for I think mostly Evil Sunz any tips for making washes?

>>52534954
At this point?
Fresh water irrigation and centuries worth of uninterrupted ecological development.
Or cut the circumstances that made it a desert in the first place. There was a point where it was a fertile plain.

Level off the Atlas mountains, move Europe and the middle east 2000km north, and maybe fiddle a bit with the Earth's rotational speed.

>>52534954
Move africa a few thousand miles south or north

>>52534659 (OP)
a condition of citizenship is the use of your bodily remains and animating spirit(if thats required) after your death for a duration of 100 years in service to the state, or until wear makes the remains unusable. it's what they do in lieu of charging more than light taxes
>"we thank you for your service citizen"

longer if you volunteer it so.
or if the nation is stirred to a time of war.

undead services may be rented from the state by any citizen either as a 1 zombie per person or a case of "surplus zombie-hours as needed" in cases of there being more zombies around than living people.

sure they aren't particularly smart but they'll dig irrigation ditches all day and night or swing sledges at a smiths forge or haul stones or walk on hamster wheels to power things or etc.

certain and sundry governmental tasks take precedence over citizen jobs but it's basically promising free slave labor to every citizen.

naturally executed criminals are re-purposed for a millennium for their crime.

they don't usually instigate war or conflict because they have a fully acceptable death/undeath/wear-out/birth rate.

and if they DO instigate battle; their own enemies will serve as fodder for their own war effort
>"don't fuck with us, we WILL use your dead inappropriately"

the first step in politics is learning more than the rudimentary necromancy needed to direct an undead.

Easy.


Some evil force begins killing off some magical society with a disease. This society has great technological/mystical/psychic/magical/rune powers but severely lack healing powers, so they are all destined to die.
But their immense magical power/sheer force of will revives them out of death, to stand vigilant against the evil force that slew them.

An obscure but powerful paladin organisation that focuses not on dogma or fighting ability, but instead focuses on willpower. Death means nothing to these paladins, except for a dramatic drop in their charisma. A dead man can still march, a dead man can still shield the weak, a dead man can still smite evil.

Make her worship a god of journalism and try to get the scoop on everything.

>>52534166
She's worshiping a godddess of knowledge, so she's actually really likely to be extremely inquisitive. She started her adventuring life to get more information on a topic that's very dear to her, after all.

As for your two ideas on prayers, why not both? Nobody wants to hear you drone on and on with long repetitive prayers all the time, but during a roleplaying-heavy session, it'd be cool to have a longer prayer and it's flesh out your character in a cool way.

On the same token, small /me commands all the time might become annoying, but throwing a few in during a dungeon crawl could be a nice little splash of RP color.
