Chandra and Gideon are disgusting Walkers, up there with the Mind Sculptor himself in terms of their impact on Standard. Honestly reminds me of Black Luster Sodier-Envoy of the Beginning and Chaos Emperor Dragon-Envoy of the End from the early days of Yu-Gi-oh!

With Saheeli being the Dark Magician of Chaos, of course:)

Probably Risus.
I used it for an Axe Cop themed game I ran a while back, and I definitely suggest it for silly supers.

The issue (in this case) with most Super games is that they try to exact the powers of your dude (which is cool and useful, but not fast nor lite).
If you wanted to pick up more detail, Mutants and Masterminds is pretty great though (plays real fast, good feel, with statisfying amounts of depth).
Typically I use GURPS with wildcard powers from Supers... it's makes for a silly and loose game that can switch tones on the fly pretty easily.

But seriously, Risus is free, and probably the most competently put together rules lite rpg ever published.

Marvel Heroic. Always marvel heroic! Too bad the dingbats holding the system won't fucking deliver the generic version nor get a new license from marvel or DC. I read somewhere M&M lost their DC, so it's probably up for grabs.

Otherwise, you'd be looking at low power Mutants and Masterminds. Something like power level 4 to 6 with limits on spending if you want the Aquabats experience of low tier powers that barely work.

That is, as far as dedicated super hero systems go. Generic ultra light systems might do a pretty good job.

>>52167028
I've always wanted to play an Aquabats-themed RPG, but never had a group willing to join me. Feels aquabad, man.

Manor Courts
many of the disputes in the manor courts had to do with farming and property(using too much manure, ploughing another person's land)
manor courts dealt with charges of assault, petty theft, public drunkenness and other small crimes

this court would even allow serfs to sue if they felt it was unfair

manor courts were like a village meeting, most of the villagers would attend

witnesses were very important

heavy fines were enforced for lying in the court

villagers decided who won the case

representatives of the lord, called stewards, acted as judges deciding the sentence of the court (which was usually a fine)

Royal Courts

took care of serious crimes such as murder, treason, rape, burglary, poaching game from royal forests, cutting trees or even taking deadwood for fuel from royal forests

royal courts used the łcommon law˛
it was called common law because it was the same for the whole kingdom

royal courts could order the execution of murderers and theives

after the execution of a criminal the court would take away all of his or her property

Built a Deathwatch Captain with a Xenophase blade, storm shield, and shoulder-backpack mounted Grav Pistol.

Gotta clean heavily and base him and then time to paint. Kind of annoyed at the resin flushing in the top of the hand.

lots of constitution. sexy, sexy constitution.

In Legends of the Wulin (my preferred system for high action/Platinum stuff), likely a Footwork and Strike focused style, mobility and accuracy, with a Saber/Massive or Sword/Massive special weapon along with a Ranged option.

Although I'm not sure what Internal style she'd have, I don't know much about her expanded capabilities in the game.

The Black Templars (used) to do it by always being on crusade. Since none of their elements ever really talked and were always engaged in action and thus always sustaining losses, their high numbers could be explained away as temporary preparation for future battles, or genuine miscommunication, assuming it was even discovered at all.

Another way to do it is with Chapter Serfs. The Codex Astartes deals exclusively with Space Marines. Marine Chapters can and often do have additional small armies made of serfs that man and defend their chapter fortresses. There's nothing saying you couldn't do that en-masse, except for issues with transporting them, that's when you run into trouble since the admech/nav houses/imp navy control space travel except for your small strike cruisers

>>52164638
could an Allied merchant or rouge trader pressed into helping through one type of intrigue or another to cart around IG class serf armies. and a friendly Magos or two could allow for outfitting them?

Making your chapter master the librarian or techmarine or chaplain or apothecary

>Let's continue discussing the newest arcana. How do you feel about it?

I'm about halfway through the disciplines, but there are some obvious balance oversights. I appreciate that mearls and crawford are experimenting with new things, but I would appreciate it if wizards would hire someone more competent (literally anyone on DMSguild) to experiment.

THIS THREAD IS NOW AN ENEMY OF THE TEMPLAR ORDER.
GOOD DAY /tg/.

Depends on the culture. At least in the homebrew I made, there is a culture that explicitly uses blood magic. To them, blood holds the source of magic power. People can use magic as normal, but if you shed blood the magic can escape in a concentrated form.

Most people see this as something that these villagers do. A lot of magical scholars know that this is some powerful shit, but the detriment to the body is greater than if one were to just cast diluted energy.

Some people think this is abhorrent. That destroying the vessel from which magic flows is against whatever god or goddess they believe put it there.

This latter view of thought actually caused a split between the royal families of this village.

Normal blood magic also exists, such as rituals, sacrifice, etc. but nobody can actually recreate the power of magic that these villagers have.

>>52165475
>Some people think this is abhorrent. That destroying the vessel from which magic flows is against whatever god or goddess they believe put it there.
Do these people also consider regular violence with spears and so on to be abhorrent because of the blood shed? Relatedly, if you get sliced open without some sort of special ritual, as in a violent confrontation, can you harvest the same power?

>>52162312
Why does everyone have such a huge bu- oh. I get it

Depends very much on the setting, although I suppose it would be at the point where races no longer had distinct niches of their own. If every race overlaps significantly with one or more other races, becoming indistinct and not really adding anything to the setting by their presence, you have too many.

Dude attacks you with a critter. You tell your critter to get in the way. They fight, one likely dies.

Not exactly rocket appliances.

marines after the horus heresy are recruited, trained, mindfucked and armed better. possibly chapters use more serfs, servitors and automated stuff to focus better on the battles

mass-production and the high attrition rate of heresy-era campaigns meant that marines from that era never grew into the centuries-old badasses that 40k astartes are.

40k marines have to compensate their lackluster numbers with better gear and wayyyyy better training.
