With Kenku being an official player race, I'm going to be making a dex fighter kenku who was raised as sort of a mascot of the city guard. As such, a lot of his speech patterns and dialogue is based on how guards talk and behave.
What are some cliche sayings and actions of fantasy city guards I can mimic?

what do you do about aircraft and WraithKnights and Imperial Knights, and stuff then?
You need D-Strength weapons and Anti-Air too

Lots of Dakka & lots of bodies.
Lots of cheap infantry to deal with enemy infantry (tar pit, massed fire, bubble wrap for tanks)
Lots of Artillery (counter attack enemy long range anti-armour & heavy weapons meant to kill infantry).
APC's & tanks to move up field and hammer objectives/ break through enemy lines.

Seriously, if you are going to be spewing your homebrew, atleast give us context to your rather vague question.

>If this an excuse for adding your waifu to the campaign?
>How far are you willing to bend the universe to accomodate to your wishes?

Sorry,
Warhammer Fantasy.
Chaos Cultist group, trying to make an npc that is literally a daemon who is trying to keep the party on point since they keep wandering off to do other things outside of their assigned mission (sometimes their own stupidity, sometimes not) and displeasing their warband leader and their various gods.
So they are creating an npc they know if the party tries to kill will just report back to the important people.
Tau shit all over marines.

hi there tg i need a little help over here,I'm a first time GM and i want to start a little simple, I'm going to be running a series of 3 one shots for my group.
The first one will be a lot of combat in a series of caves, then ending with them reaching a sort of maintenance tunnel for a 5000 year old buried advanced city.
My GM has been helping me, but he told me to come here and check with you guys.
so far heres the draft for the map I've made, i don't know how to design caves or even what this maintenance tunnel would look like .
In the cave there will be underground worms, and throughout the cave and tunnel there will be mining golems that have been on auto pilot for 5000 years just collecting minerals (incentive for the players to press further)
Please help! I'm stuck now.

I think there's too much padding. A good dungeon has three or four meaningful encounters, and putting in several busywork fights is completely counterproductive.

>>50080391
im not really sure how to run or facilitate combat so I've let the players know ill be chucking in about 5-6 to get a handle on how to manage enemies.

I'm honestly stumped. That's sort of like asking if there's a game about angsty vampire intrigue that isn't World of Darkness.
There's torchbearer, but it's a dense story game.
>>
Depends on how loose your OSR definition is and what areas you find OSR lacking.
Some alternatives, in order of crunch: GURPS Dungeon Fantasy, Savage Worlds Fantasy Companion, Strike!
>>
If you want a game that's focused on dungeon crawling you really can't go wrong with OSR games.

What are your thoughts on Camorr as an RPG setting? I realize maybe not a lot of people know of the book/series, but to those that do, how would you go about a campaign set in the city?

It's just a renamed fantasy Venice with more sharks.
>>
the world has potential, Elderglass and it origins, a party of adherents to the nameless 13th, Piracy, the alchemy of the setting is powerful and variable and versatile....
I'd use parts of the setting, but not the whole thing.
I dislike magic so the Bondsmagi so I'd leave that shit alone though
>>
>>50079514
I think the idea of the thief god was actually kind of cool. The setting is kind of like an extra shitty renaissance Venice but with some neat fantastical elements. I really liked the idea of the alchemical botany and stuff like that. I've yanked that stuff for my setting.
It would make a pretty good low fantasy campaign. I would play it, so long as Locke and his lot don't actually show up.

To be fair on the planet Angron was a merciful gladiator who spared many worthy foes and fought fiercely to live free with his brethern, more the happy to die in honor.
However the Emporer took everything from him, forcibly kidnapping him and consigning all he cared about to butchery and having his name tarnished by his own homeworld as the very people who enslaved him get to join the imperium and be even more powerful.
Angron, above everyone else, had a reason to hate.

What guard regiments are we talking? Cause if it's some backwoods fucking nowhere world, a lot. If it's kreig or steel legion, approx 0.5.

>>50079274It depends on the writer.
Besides, a trait I'd expect to see in a warrior-priest who's been around for millenia is the ability to know exactly how many opponents he can handle WITHOUT dying once. Why waste a perfectly good incarnation?

A little while ago we were having a thread on chainfists, but within that was some great fun creating two opposing factions
On one side, the Shred Lords, the most radical and tubular marines to every shred through the gnarly waves of the imperium. White scars successors.
On the other, the Doom Derby, a bunch of chaos sisters with chain-skates.
And the two factions were fighting over DOOMRIDER'S head
I thought that was some fun shit, and I'd like to continue fluffing them both out.
we were working on the color scheme of the Shred Lords last i remember.

Neon Blue is a must; perhaps we could also give them different helmet (something inspired by standard safety helmets for one squad; another wears only Aviators, and another wears motorcycle helmets and jackets, ect)
Also rolling for inspiration.

Depends. Is this AA or AAA Corp? Not a chance, they are too big.
A or B corp? A very, very slim chance of success.

Alright. Hypothetically speaking, if some runner was sick of the corporations' shit and wanted to either strike a blow against them or start a movement to take one or more down or something, how would they go about doing it?
