So is Magnus basically a Saturday morning villain now?
Because I always preferred it when he was the most reluctant primarch to fall to Chaos, who only joined Tzzentch because he had no other choice and forever resented his situation.
I always go the impression that he was a loyalist at heart but was pushed onto a darker path by forces beyond his control.
Also does he and Roboute have a particular history or did Magnus attack him because 'fuck that guy'?
>>52270751
Well according to RotP he wanted 'revenge' on Guilliman but if it was for something specific or just generic I don't know.
Still the paragraph seems to be implying he hates him similar to how he hates the Wolvies so I dunno, maybe.
>>52270751
Apparently aspects of Magnus has been sharded thanks to Ahirmans Rubric. So this might be just one dickhead aspect of him.
>>52272125
>>52272279
What does Magnus want in the long term anyways?
Have you ever gotten "creative" with transformation magic in an RPG?
>>52270168
I once escaped from a vampire's dungeon by turning into an ooze, does that count?
>>52270168
Does it cound if transformation is my magical realm?
>>52270168
My familiar uses Alter self to turn into people she likes.
Not for any particular purpose, that's just one of her personality quirks.

>His love of murder was so great that Khârn actually had an ancient death-counter installed in his helmet which registers the number of kills he has made in the helm's eye lenses.
oh wow, is this shit from ward lore?
so kharn is a tryhard edgy mlg faggot now, retconned for 13yo mlg faggots to self-insert into. when the fuck did everything went so wrong in 40k?
also why is art in new editions so fucking bad. does gw outsource to deviantart now?
>>52269668
Yes, this is the dumbest thing about WH40K, sure
>>52269668
How would the numbers even still fit on his HUD.

This comment gave me so much cancer I ascended to Daemonhood under Nurgle.
So I know that all beholder consider themselves to be the perfect/ideal beholder which is why they kill all other beholders on sight. I know they're also pretty crazy and evil in general and would gladly murderize other races too.
But does flattery work on a beholder?
Like if you just stumbled across one accidentally, would saying shit like "OH MY GOD, YOU ARE THE PERFECT BEHOLDER. TRULY YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND IDEAL STANDARD THAT ALL OTHER BEHOLDERS FAIL TO MEET" buy you any time to escape or de-escalate the situation?
Only if you succeed your skill check.
>>52269134
If they kill each others on sight, how do they reproduce?
>>52269165
Every time someone considers that idea a new beholder pops into existence
I was thinking of coming back to MTG after not playing since Innistrad and I wanted to know /tg/s opinion on which format you guys personally prefer to play more:Standard or Modern?
Edh like everyone else
>>52268986
I personally prefer Standard, but it's currently quite bad, worse than in the former rotation.
I'd say Modern is better if you can afford a one-time payment instead of Standard's wild ride.
>>52269544
Don't people usually say standard is worse than the previous rotation, every rotation?
>dark lord antagonist has the power to personally wipe out the heroes with complete ease
>instead sends weaker minions after them so they become stronger until they figure out a convenient plot device that will allow them to defeat the dark lord
>dark lord is shocked that his tactic of sending free xp at them failed and he's defeated
Why do the big bad guys always do this?
>>52267616
because the unneccesarily powerful bad dude represents the mindless forces of evil.
It makes more sense to have complex factions than a single person behind bad stuff, but dnd playyers have tiny cervixes which can't fit big enough thoughts to comprehend bad things NOT being the plan and aim of a single, hampstermind supervillian.
>>52267616
Usually XP isn't a thing in the setting or is exclusive to the PCs and the dark lord doesn't have acess to that meta-knowledge.
>>52267616
Your party starts at a tavern. The evil overlord portents his demise at the hands of a promising band of adventurers, and thus destroys the tavern and everyone in it. Game over, see you guys next week.
can we have an historical armour inspo thread?
preferably ancient, or at least pre-firearms
>>52266808
Apparently, samurai weren't supposed to wear the masks into battle.
that particular style of japanese armor is definately not pre firearm
>>52266808
Let's see...
Brass armor, pangolim armor, paper armor, bone armor, riveted leather armor, shields with hidden rockets and triple-barreled arquebuses used as shields, the eastern folks had it all.
The pic is austronesian brass armor. They used it because they iron was scarce and rust quickly in their humid environment. Their plated mail also had bigger gaps than say, ottoman equivalents, and never covered more of the body than this. Doing so was asking for a heatstroke.
What are legitimate reasons to worship an evil god/goddess?
>>52266243
Forfun
Lust for power
Hating the good gods for some reason or another
Personally, the sexual allure of being in the thrall of something very evil/powerful
Pic semi related.

That isn't ours.

Amusingly, you used one of Plog's new pieces that *aren't* ours.
>>52264132
Thank god, lams are ugly
Come now anon, say what's on your mind. Don't worry, this is a SAFE SPACE.
I'll start.I get retarded levels of triggered that where I game, I am the only one with a fully painted and based army. It's not that fucking hard to do. Budget your time! All their shit painted/ unpainted crap ruins it for me
I like painting. I hate the results, so I "scrape it off" and end with a bunch of unpainted minis anyway.
>>52262681I don't do campaigns. I just roleplay because I don't go on Roll20 to much.I sometimes make disguise threads about my characters to get ideas.
I don't even play anything I just like reading your stories
fresh off the press
How do you punish players who don't take your campaign seriously?
>>52261743
First, get out of the mindset of "punishing" anyone. It's a game, calm down.
Second, make a game worth getting invested in. Nobody cares about your fanfiction tier ripoff of Game of Thrones. Dark settings where everything is shit are hard to get invested in. Lighten up a little.
Third, talk with your players. Ask them their reasons why they're not taking things seriously. Could be a misunderstanding or a failure to communicate. Maybe they're just genuine shitters. You won't know until you sit down and ask.
>>52261743
If the players aren't taking your campaign seriously, then either you're not providing them with a compelling experience or they were never inclined to get invested in make-believe in the first place.
Some groups only want to kill shit and get loot and won't care even about a good story.
Be prepared for them not to take it seriously and not take it too seriously unless they do.
Let's do this one fast.
Elric: The Ruby Throne and Stormbringer.

Tell me about the latest character concept you've been working on just to file away, forever DMs and game-seekers.
>>52250440
Helmed horror leading a squad of animated armor and a metal golem
>>52250440
Skeleton Warrior who's on a quest for flesh and skin.
>>52250440
I've GM'd so long I can't even think of a character concept I'd like to play anymore.
