Question: House medium mechs.

It seems to me that the Davions have the Enforcer, the Lyrans the Griffon, and the Kuritans love the Wolverine. What about the last two, what's their taste in mediums? And what about the FRR and the Periphery?

>>51518058
The CC has the Vindicator and the FWL love the Trebuchet, iirc.

>>51518058
FWL has Wolverine and Cappies have VINDICATORS FOR DAYS. DC aren't that fond of mediums for retarded reasons.

FRR had a lot of ex-DC stuff so same as them, but in general minor powers/peripherats use whatever they can get their dirty paws on. MoC does have a decent number of shads, though.

How would I go about getting a candy/metallic red without an airbrush? I saw some good tutorials for how to get nice metallic blue/green Alpha Legion posted in /wip/ before; can I use a similar method to do red?

I want to end up around the color in pic related.

See that flecking in brown and green. That's from the airbrush. What causes it, how do I stop it?

This is the first thing I've painted in years and I know the chipping is really shit. I'm still getting into the swing of thinning my paints properly to a reliable consistency so some of the chipping came out like a wash and some came out like unthinned paint, and I could never tell which one I would get until I applied it.

>>51517402
Actually, nevermind. I bet I figured it out. There's a valve on my airbrush that controls atomisation and I have it all the way open. If I close that it'd probably fix the problem.

I should play with my tools more.

To give a sum up:
A wierd bard (full of dad jokes) with a (unfazed) young witch are making a mess out the planes, stealing pieces of them to add to another one. In meanwhile, a deadly and seemingly invincible reknown "hero" is giving them hunt although he's leaving a trail of bodies wherever he goes, despite being known for being a peaceful person normally.
The party's there mostly to gain the most out of this, but also want things to return to normality.
It's further complicated by the huge mix of monsters, feys, aberrations, cat fey merchants, porpoise people, russian-accented half giants, hundreds of varieties of kobolds, inevitables, goblins, explosives, explosions, magitek, dragons, CAPITALISM-OH!, billions of souls being stuck in between existence and non-existence under the ground of the plane and more.

The party mostly pass their time trying to find their next money income, and make as many explosives as possible.

There's this continent called Vannarad wich now has colons from another continent for 100 years now however shit is going down because for some reason no one can explain goblinoids of all kind have become more and more numerous and are now attacking the colons with strategies and such.

The truth of the matter is that there is a Hobgoblin Lich that has been experimenting with other goblinoids and has created 3 champions (A nilbog, hobgoblin crossed with a displacer beast and bugbear crossed with a beholder) completely loyal to him and they have been mobilizing the goblinoids of the continent to fuck shit up and take it over for themselves.

Now the party has a choice of either trying to eliminate the 3 champions wich would cause the goblinoid races to just go back to backstabbing each other in a power vacuum that cant be filled,
or to use diplomacy and convince the other races (the dwarves of the lonely giant mountain and their heroic king, the many human barbarian tribes and the pompous high elves of the forest) in order to fight with the colons and destroy the army in an epic battle.

Also there's a sideplot about an ancient pocket dimension filled with a demon horde and a powerful devil whose door is under the lonely mountain and who'se key is in the hands of the (not really) great goblin king that got fucked over by the champion. (also he's half goblin half dragonwrought kobold. thats why he's king) and the devil has been making deals using his magic to appear outside of the dimension for moments in order to grow stronger and is now influencing these powers at hand to try and get the key to where he's locked up.

Does it come in human language?

What are the GURPSfriends opinions' on this:

http://noschoolgrognard.blogspot.com.au/2013/08/using-size-modifier-table-for-rapid.html

Basically, You use the Size Modifier chart for autofire like so:
1.) Instead of using the regular rapid fire bonuses, You look up the number of shots fired under the size column and find the relevant bonus in the Bonus column.
2.) resolve the attack using the regular rules, standard penalties for range, hit location, etc.
3.) Divide your margin of success by the weapon's Rcl, then reduce that by 1 (+ the margin of success of the defender's Dodge, if applicable) to find your Margin of Recoil.
4.) Look up the Margin of Recoil under the bonus column, and find the relevant Size Mod to find number of shots that hit.

It seems (slightly) more complicated than the standard rules, but just working through it a couple of times it's pretty easy, and it seems to give more consistent results.

No, Techniques bought from a Primary skill do not apply to a secondary Skill defaulted from the Primary. This is stated on pp. 64 of Martial Arts:

"This is a special case! Normally, when Skill A defaults to Skill B, Skill A’s techniques don’t
default to Skill B’s techniques. For instance, Shortsword defaults to Broadsword-2, so a fighter with Broadsword at 20 has Shortsword at 18 by default. Back Strike (p. 67) defaults to skill-2; therefore, if he improves Back Strike to default+2 for Broadsword, he gets Back Strike (Broadsword) at 20. But this doesn’t give him Back Strike (Shortsword) at default+2, or 18.
He only gets his usual default, or 16."

I'm not sure what happened after that, I left the group at the point. That Guy pretty much behaved like a Skyrim character, and then guilt tripped everyone at the the table, including the DM, into letting him get away with it with minimal consequences and then bitched even about those.

So how about those anti-fate/paradox perks? I need a way to keep my Sburb Doomed Timeline Jumper alive other than throwing him into stasis and hoping Paradox Space doesn't bullshit me into having to get him back to beat the game.

Any item/magic combo that can allow you to steampunk spiderman? Perhaps some kind of ranger gear?

Do you guys prefer setting agnostic or setting specific materials?

>>51525107
Mechanical stuff should be setting-agnostic, though I don't mind if it refers to the setting it originated from, i.e. warforged, thri-kreen, etc.

I like lore updates for how stuff in a new edition fits into an older edition's settings.

First for the Ninth Legion!
