Have any of your characters used a katana or a nodachi? Do you want to play a 7 Strength dainty girl/twink with Muleback Cords, Daisho Expertise, and a 2d6 damage katana?

I could totally see my other guy picking up a nodachi too.

You can swap their rifles for lasguns if you have the spare parts, or just say they're using autoguns since they have the same stats. A PTRS-41 Anti Tank Rifle works for a Lascannon and all the other special weapons have obvious equivalents.
Honest question, /tg/: how many of you still care for 40K canon? How many of you bother to keep up with what GW decides to retcon this week?
I'm the kind of lorefag who loves to write about homebrew planets, regiments, inquisitors, Trader dynasties, lesser xenos species and yes, also Space Marine Chapters. I used to try to keep it all compatible with established canon - but in between GW getting more and more comfortable with retcons, and the fact that they never really cared about consistency to begin with, I just gave up at some point.
I mean, I really like to build off little details. I love those little fluff tidbits that noone else pays attention to. I actually got Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader and Only War just so that I could use them for fine-tuning my homebrew fluff. But time and time again, whole chunks of my homebrew fluff were invalidated because some 'dex writer either felt like retconning shit or just didn't care about details. And after a while, it just became too much.
So I decided to give up on canon 40K alltogether. I stick mostly to alternate 40K scenarios now - that way, it's immediately obvious that I'm not even trying to stick to current canon, and I'm still free to cherrypick any good ideas from the new fluff.
I mean, GW and its writers don't even care about established 40K canon, so why should we? Black Library is a bunch of writers who get paid to insert their headcanon into the setting and snipe fluff they don't like, and the 'dex writers plain don't care about preexisting fluff. Forgeworld is the closest thing that GW has to a team that actually cares about fluff consistency - and Forgeworld is also the label that gave us pre-Heresy Leman Russ varieties when the older fluff made a point of saying that the Leman Russ tank was a post-Heresy innovation.
I'll admit that alt-40K scenarios aren't everything either, but it sure makes it easier to deal with 'dex fluff stupidity and BL shenanigans.
OP again; might as well vent for a bit.
The new Iron Hands fluff was propably the final straw for me. I had one homebrew Chapter that I was really invested in, and I had made it an Iron Hands successor because I really liked the clan companies and I wanted to have something with non-codex organisational doctrines. Then the 5th edition came along, and GW decided that the only good marine is an Ultramarine. The Iron Hands' unique organisation was gone now, and so were many of the old fluff tidbits that I had built my chapter off of.
Of course, in retrospect, that chapter wasn't all that good to begin with. Some parts were good, and it generally had decent potential but I just wanted to do way too much with a single chapter.
Anyhoo, not long after that, me and a few friends decided to make our own homebrew Astartes Legions. It started as a crazy one-off idea, but it worked out a lot better than any one of us expected. And the reason it worked so well was that we now had free rein. None of us had to care about the big damn mess that is 40K canon anymore. We just cherrypicked the stuff we liked, and discarded anything that sucked. No Codex Astartes to shit things up. No excessive grimderp from the AdMech or Inquisition. We could do our thing without having to worry about anything. It was just liberating.
I like most things that aren't Space Marines.
>>50842857
Sorry to burst your anti-bubble Anon, but the 40k Fluff/Story/Canon is pretty much the glue that holds the franchise together and one of the only reasons it has survived (and thrived) with such bad rules.
discuss.
I wouldn't consider the job system an alternative to a class system, just a set of skill kits for a classless system.
>>50842782
I feel like a job system is more immersive as it grounds the learning of new skills in some sort of "realism". I can picture that say, a duelist would have a hard time becoming a professional mage as both occupation require specific intensive training rather thant a "warriors can't be mages" logic
>>50842767
It's better than trying to turn classes from a set of broad archetypes into a makeshift job system, which class bloat tends to do.
A friend of mine has asked me to set up a game of paranoia, and I think I've got a direction for it. Santa delivers gifts on Christmas to the complex. Friend Computer has him under investigation for being a communist, but that's not the mission. Fact is, Santa's naughty list is different than the Computer's, so I'm sending a team of troubleshooters to go out and stealthily retrieve gifts from people who don't deserve them, and possibly replace some gifts for people who need to be executed for treason (with seasonal gift-wrapped bombs filled with razor confetti or toxic snow or exploding ornaments or something. Poison wrapping paper?). Thoughts? Any ideas? Paranoia General.
>>50841034
Possibly it's the case that this is so secret a mission that all of the security is still on. They're out past curfew (treason), b&e (treason), stealing (treason), and possibly breaking into the houses of yellows or blues (treason). So it's really important that they not get caught.
>>50841034
That's beautiful. I can't really contribute anything, but that's a fantastic game concept.
>>50841034
They need to run into Santa and get contraband gifts, obviously.

Agreed. Let's obsess over it and binge everything.
Welcome to 4chan.
99% of the world's population will die.
You get US$1.508 trillion to build a program to test people who will live. It can be whatever you want, but there is only a year for each person to go through it.
So, how do you decide who "passes"?
>>50831995
Can I choose to be part of the 99% who die instead?

What do you think about female solar deities and male moon deities?
What is there to think about it?
>>50829604

>Your deities are not shapeless Lovecraftian entities beyond our comprehension.
Step it up OP.
Well, traditionally, the moon is linked with femininity because of the menstrual cycle, the "swelling" of the moon from dark to full being reminiscent of pregnancy, and a few other thematic links. While the sun is often associated with masculinity as light is seen as a penetrative thing, and because it's bright and showy, and across the animal kingdom it's generally males who try harder to attract attention and display themselves.
But you can spin it the other way. You do you, Anon.
Has anyone tried it yet? as a platform for online pen & paper.
I can't stomach using roll20, and I'm thinking buying it.
It's -50% on steam right now.If you buy the 4-in-1 pack it's less than 7€/key.
Thoughts?

My irl friends and I use it very frequently because we all live pretty far away from one another. It allows you to import sprites and even some 3D models into the game space so you can basically do whatever you want with it. Only complaint might be that actually rolling dice feels a little clunkier than like, actually rolling dice. And taking large notes that nobody but you needs to see should still be done with pen and paper on a character sheet or in a GM notebook. Other than that it's pretty solid if you have a group that can't frequently meet up in person.
