I already know how the ork scenario would go down.

(This isnt canon)

Bombsplatter leaped ovef the trenches, Grox head tighly bound over the kommandoz skull. The plan was kunning, so kunning it actually worried the nob. Was anyone really meant to be this dun clever? What if this was a assignment from Mork himself? That would be a awful lot of responsibillity that he wasnt quite sure he could own up to.

Da plan was simple, if he be all sneaky and krumped da other sneaky gitz where werent boys, den dat would make him da sneakest on the planet. An if you are the sneakest then aint no one can find you and Bombsplatter can slip away all quiet like whenver he felt like it.

Da first target was da guy with the smokey stick, the Kommando sneaked into the tent, deploying takikul moos to distract security with the cunning disguise, sneakin up on da officer with da rok in hand. See if, and this is part of the kunning, dey see a rok killed this git, then they wouldnt think a ork did it because orks use choppas so dey wont even know there is a kommando as dead kunning as bombsplatter theyd think it was a... uh...

What sortof git fought with roks anyhow? Besides bombsplatter himself of course... oh well that sounds like a humie problem to figure out.

It is 204 years since the end of the Siege of Ciudad Rodrigo, where Wellington's Anglo-Portuguese Army had besieged the city's French garrison. After two breaches were blasted in the walls by British heavy artillery, the fortress was successfully stormed on the evening of 19 January 1812. After breaking into the city, British troops went on a rampage for several hours before order was restored. Strategically, the fall of the fortress opened the northern gateway into French-dominated Spain from British-held Portugal. An earlier siege of Ciudad Rodrigo occurred in 1810 when the French captured the city from Spanish forces.

As part of his strategy in Spain, Napoleon had ordered Marshal Auguste Marmont to send 10,000 troops to help Marshal Louis Suchet's forces capture Valencia and 4,000 more to reinforce the central reserve. When Wellington received news that Marmont's Army of Portugal sent forces eastward, he moved in bad snowstorm conditions on Ciudad Rodrigo and arrived in the area on 6 January.

Ciudad Rodrigo was a second class fortress with a 32-foot (9.8 m) high main wall built of "bad masonry, without flanks, and with weak parapets and narrow ramparts." The city being dominated by the 600-foot (180 m) high Grand Teson hill to the north, the French built a redoubt there. The 2,000-man garrison was far too weak to properly man the defences. The French garrison included single battalions of the 34th Light and 113th Line Infantry Regiments, a platoon of sappers and only 167 artillerists to man 153 cannons.

The fortress was invested, and on the night of 8 January, the Light Division stormed and took the Grand Teson redoubt by surprise, and began digging trenches to and positions for the breaching batteries. Digging in the rocky soil at night caused a peculiar hazard. When a pickaxe struck a stone, the resulting spark drew accurate French fire. By 12 January the trenches to battery positions were complete and the batteries were being installed.

They don't mind planetary damage? They crack open crusts to both win conflicts and strip-mine minerals, all the dense and rare stuff. A large reserve is sent into specific trajectories from which only they will know of, very long-term resources for their race to retrieve as needed.

Much of it is fashioned into huge diamonoid bullets with wasteful nuclear rockets to acelerate into the next target.

A biological imperative to eliminate all competition for the expansion of their species multiplied by advanced technology.

>>51420387
To unite the universe, obviously.

This is the Mongols we're talking about.

Some irrelevant prince to some irrelevant tribe on an irrelevant backwater planet of warring irrelevant tribes looks around, and realizes how shit this is. So he decides fuck this, takes command of his tribe, and starts taking over others. Disposing the royal families, and instating those who are most qualified and loyal, instead of falling on the nepotism of the old chieftains, and rallies the people of all tribes under him, shows them that it's possible to have a better system than being subject to the pointless and ilogical whims of the royals, more concerned with keeping their own personal power, than creating any kind of ideal kingdom.

So he's united the peoples of his planet, for the first time in centuries. They have no resources, but that has made them hard. They need little to thrive. They take to the stars. They depose the rulers and old powers of neighboring planets, and promote the skilled and loyal. They rally the people under them. They find what resources of planets, not just natural resources, but technologies, arts, sciences, skilled people, trades, religions, cultures, and they take them and spread them to other parts of the empire, where they are most needed. And resources needed there are brought from other parts of the empire.

When their empire grows, they begin to conquer other empires. The planets within the shackles of rival empires are given a choice. Cowtow to the new empire, submit utterly to them, and feel the benefit of it's resources, it's scholars, it's technology, it's scientists, it's economy, it's peace. But show reluctance, show the slightest scrap of loyalty to the old empire, or the spark of ambition, that could one day grow to a fire, and they will be razed to dust.

Disloyalty can not be tolerated in this glorious enterprise. Ambition, greed, irrational loyalty to the old, this is what leads to the dying of empires. Thus must it be.

There's the something protectorate which is all Roman themed.

Could you give me a name? Already tried searching but my googlefu is pretty shit

>>51420078
Your bro is correct. They're extremely common to the point that they're not interesting enough for the war game, which is why they never seem to come up. If the rebellion is only against the local government and the rebels are still cool with keeping their tithe to the Imperium, then the Imperium doesn't interfere.

The ones that are chaos backed tend to escalate into crazy apocalyptic situations, which makes much more sense for the war game.

No, I'd spend the time preparing the adventure and getting ready for the session instead of wasting it on gimmicks.

But if that's your dream good for you. How I do things isn't th only way to do things and whatever makes you and your group happiest is best. Good luck with your dream.

A fellow poor college student.

No. I'd get bigger house, adopted cute pet (the /d/ kind), and become patent inventor.

>>51419410
That's the main reason I don't do it now, because I'd consider the meal not worth it unless I had time to prepare out the ass for the session as well.

As in make it explainable? He's nuts, that's all the explanation you need

Now if you want to act in a lolrandom manner, just write down all the possible actions the guy could take and throw a dart at your list

>>51418931
Don't have it communicate ever with the players and make it follow odd but consistent rules.

>>51418955
As in, make it so that it's not awful.
It's only too easy to make a villain terrible by just giving them nonsensical motivations. Look at how hard it is to write the Joker.

Only about one time in a hundred is the Joker written well, and even then not for very long.

Do you start with levels? If not, ask him if you can use the age-old D&D-duel rule that let you convert 2 gold pieces to 1 experience point.

(Or was it the other way around? I can't remember).

>>51416377
Yeah, they can leave their Knight and do noble things.

>>51416377
Titan commanders are able to leave their machine, although they're loath to do so.
This is coming out of those Lords of Mars novels, which are recent enough.

I don't see why knight commanders wouldn't be able to.

>>51419467
This. I imagine knights are much less connected with their machines than princeps due to the fact that titan machine spirits are several orders of magnitude more powerful than any other creation to the point where the Mechanicum can recruit princeps from literally anywhere. So a knight probably won't even mind leaving his machine or at least won't mind much.

>>51416149
How messed magic are you integrating into this? What kind of repeaters? Multiple barrel, harmonica, revolving, chain, etc?

>>51416149
bumping for curiosity. Tell us more!

>>51416842
As far as repeaters, lever-action rifles or early bolt-actions like the Vetterli, or revolvers like the Colt SAA, or Smith and Wesson model 3. Magic, probably pretty simple light-fantasy stuff.

>>51415479
well what behaviours should a PC with high/low curse be encouraged to engage in from a fictional standpoint?

>>51415668
I'm not exactly sure.

In the setting that this is in, the players are among the undead. You know, hollows and stuff. It's a process of rotting after death, if that makes things clearer.

The main thing is that curse is an affliction that happens upon the character's purity being drained completely. As berserk focuses on the loss of coherent thought, perhaps curse could focus on something that inhibits or alters the body.

Sorry if what I'm saying is a mess. I was put on the spot when it came to DMing, so I never got around to truly getting the mechanics of this sorted out.

>>51415797
Does "purity" refer to moral purity or humanity? As in, does "Curse" represent becoming amoral or losing emotion/will?

Jumpers!
Have you ever... destroyed a world? Ever accidentally a whole jump?

I kind of want to play a kobold priest of bahamut. He'd worship the plat dragon after being raised in a chromatic dragon's lair and after being treated like shit and watching his "deity" get killed by adventurers he renounces his old ways and sets out to towards the city. He was treated like a monster since he is one and spent most of his time on the street scouring for food until he was taken in by a local priest who took pity on him. He began to study religion and civilized society and eventually set out on a quest to try and liberate other kobolds from their enslaved lives underneath their dragon masters. His end goal is to eventually find a way to become a fully fledged dragon so that he can lead his people to creating their own successful society rather than cowering beneath greater beings. What do you think?

I've been watching too much /m/ lately, and I really need my giant robot itch scratched. I'm starting to consider pitching for our upcoming Mutants and Masterminds campaign an eccentric but somewhat benevolent construction magnante who secretely protects his hometwown with a large mech suit by night, then covering the maintenance costs by rebuilding the city from the subsequent massive amounts of collateral damage by day. It's a bit of a long shot, but maybe with a little tweaking of the game's power levels it might be feasible.

My next campaign im going to play a female aryan warlock. she's gonna take a pact with the fey god who has tricked her into thinking that shes worshipping a sun god who does not exist. i cant wait to see people when she snaps peoples necks with dark tentacles and then immediately kneels down to pray for thanks for the daylight. She's gonna be an orphan who was cursed with insanity by another warlock whilst she was sleeping on the street. would appreciate any help with fleching out her background
