Probably a lot of frustrated would-be resurrectors wondering exactly who was "most responsible" after the first few hearts fail to produce results.

>>49987702
>Magic has changed.
Well if it's a change, then I imagine people would lose their shit and start ripping the hearts out of everyone to bring people back. A lot of justice systems would exchange beheadings for resurrections.

Imagine a royal executioner/resurrectionist. Some nut job could pluck their heart out and raise everyone executed by them in the length of their career.

>>49987948
>and raise everyone
Material components are destroyed completely, you'd only be able to raise one person killed by them.

States I guess, and from there it's setting dependent.

Why did you make this thread?

Well the Aztecs went from city-state to confederacy of city-states and then made the jump to Empire.

What would a city empire be, would it be conquering new lands to extend its neighborhoods?

He stops trying to argue you out of all the stupid shit that your party does on a regular basis, and just lets you proceed to your inevitable consequences.

Random encounters are becoming a major part of the session

>>49987061
what the fuck is this?

Mostly Blue. Red has temporary effects, more akin to tricking someone or affecting their emotions. Black can take other people's dead stuff, I guess. And white has effects that are more akin to imprisonment than slavery.

Black can take your living stuff and make you suffer for it. Plus taking your opponent's turn is a black effect, though a very rare one.

>Plus taking your opponent's turn is a black effect, though a very rare one.

Fair enough. 2 of the three effects that can do that are black.

>Black can take your living stuff and make you suffer for it.

I mean, sure, but that's kind of an off color effect. Honestly that card should be UB.

Sounds fun but hard to coordinate, as DF is a long game.

I'm personally fond of pausing and playing other games while brainstorming my next move in DF.

>>49986560
I'm a complete newbie to DF so i thought it would be a fun thing to do + helping me learn more too. And it doesn't seem too difficult. Something Awful did it with Syrupleaf through all of the letters they sent and their journals for each character.

Not the OP but I'm wondering if there are any vampire states other than Sylvania.

1E for the best atmosphere, 2E for the best rules

>>49985459
I like the third edition (the one in your pic) but be aware that it's so far removed from the two predecessors that a comparison is meaningless.
2e is the one where you start as a peasant and risk your life at every corner. 3e is an experiment in game design.

What if some of them are? Two in particular.

What if two of the Emperor's sons were the pinnacle of the aspects of the Emperor's blank aspect, so hideously anathema that not only are mortals and astartes and their own brother primarchs repulsed by their existence, but blanks of such intensity that it hurts to even remember them? Where whenever one who knew of them tries to recall of them, they can only remember pain and horror and revulsion, as we see in the Horus Heresy? That no one can correct the historical record of them, or even want to if they knew? Who are such anathema that the thought of them causes pain in others who are not also, similarly blank? A face only a mother could love one could say. Or in this case, a father.

What if it is these unknown and reviled primarchs, sequestered away even during the Great Crusade, records of whom areexpunged so thoroughly that no record thus exists beyond legend, myth or rumour, were simply waiting? What if they recruited for their legions only those of similar standing. Blanks who were anathema to Chaos. So that the Emperor had two secret legions of Adeptus Astartes who's very presence would warp the forces of chaos into nonexistence with every footfall? Two legions designed specifically to act as the spear tip, to cut their way into the Eye of Terror itself at the culmination of the Great Crusade, and close that great wound in the universe once and for all, but who never received the call?

What if, because of their nature, the Emperor could only trust one man to oversee their needs and requisition, one man, asides from himself, whose orders and actions would never be questioned, not even by the Emperor's sons, the one man closer to the Emperor than anyone else?

The one man whose actions created the Inquisition in the first instance.

The one man whose influence created a secretive order of Space Marines we all already know about, consisting purely or psykers known as the Grey Templars.

What if Malcador the Sigilite was left in charge of this, the Emperor's one last desperate gambit against chaos should all else fail, whose machinations ensured their longevity through this long dark night of the Imperium's slow decline and during the most desperate hours of the Horus Heresy, created the terminus decree for which to summon forth these Ghost Legions. Whose unique power is so dangerous that if they were to approach the Emperor in his weakened state, may indeed kill him at last through no fault of their own.

These Ghost Legions who by their nature are unknown or reviled by the forces of chaos, whose primarchs could not be corrupted for the simple reason they lacked the capacity to be corrupted. Who are to be summoned at Humanity's most desperate hour as one final gambit to save the species should the various gambit pileups of the Imperium's history disfavour the Emperor's long game ambitions.

Perhaps this is the secret of the Terminus decree, perhaps this is the secret trump card up the Emperor's sleeve, perhaps this is why no one could ever know of the lost primarchs or what became of them.

Because they are waiting, watching, biding their time for when the call is given, and the end has come.

Well it'd be pretty neat

Engine Heart?

>>49984901
I suppose I can check it out. Its someplace to start at least.

>>49983603
It doesn't. The rules are a clusterfuck of the worst kind. Character creation itself may take more than a couple of sessions

>>49983603
There's been only one recorded time when somebody actually played FATAL.

>>49983677
Someone did? Proof?

>>49983564

We've seen this one already! Get a new one.

Nf6+ Kg7
Nh5+, Kg6
Bc2+ and black gets the choice of either letting the pawn queen on d8, which is real bad, or:
... Kxh5
d8=Q, Nf7+
Ke6, Nxd8+
Kf5, e2
Be4, e1=N
Bd5, c2
Bc4, c1=N
Bb5, Nc7
Ba4, Nc2
Bxc2 Ne2
Bd1, doesn't matter
Bxe2++

What is white's best move?

>>49982918
Why would it be an axe?

>>49982918
It's of course a sword, but just more tip-heavy than other swords.

>>49982934
Some may assume as it can chop and cut it could be considered an axe, axes have more uses but that's the gist there ya go.

So a Tucker's Goblin's situation?

Maybe false walls that goblins pop out of behind and in front of the party, or greased up stone pathways they PCs will slip on and be trapped in an area.

Maybe the goblins captured a slime and have been throwing their trash into the slime pit, so it's gotten large, and they trap the PCs in a tight area with it. Alternatively, maybe the slime (or whatever creature the gobbos thought they had contained) breaks out and everyone is in danger.

>deathtrap
>castle

Your work's already half done mate, why do you think they built the things in the first place?

Though that particular design right there is kind of a bad design - you want the arrow slits placed so people cannot hide next to the castle - no matter where they're standing, at least one arrow slit should point at them. The castle architect should have known this ahead of time.

Kobolds. Tucker's creatures were kobolds
