If the game is D&D I don't give a shit because its a fantasy kitchen-sink hodgepodge and kung fu is literally a core class.
If its European historical game or explictly European fantasy [like Arc Magica] then just play a Saracen like a normal person if you want to be exotic and foreign.

If he can some how explain how this jap some how reached europe than fine

nothing wrong with wanting to play a samurai merc or ronin if its historically accurate. assuming this is some low fantasy game and not some dnd/lotr like setting in which case i would say go nuts.

Why are so many people turned off by dice pools?
Obviously not everyone, but the majority of people I meet prefer to play one-roll, one-outcome games.
Civil discussion please.

Too hard for the average player to understand how likely they are to succeed/fail at a glance and the more points=hyper-reliability at low tier tasks is covered by bell curves.

Probably my favourite block of text from the old DnD books. Very important to bear in mind now that no race is too absurd or too alien to be shoehorned into a game these days.

It's honestly my favorite system. As long as you keep the splatbook usage to a minimum and never ever ever use any of the forgotten realms setting, you're all good

Do you prefer your bird-people in fantasy settings to have arm-wings or back-wings?

>Inb4 Autism
I've heard a lot of mixed opinions about this series and it's fanbase, despite this whenever there's a "Series you wish were campaigns" thread I usually see this get posted. I've got a lot of free time lately and, knowing next to nothing about the series itself, have been considering trying to slog through the 12000(?) page mess to see if I enjoy it or not. That being said, given how it's requested I'm wondering if playing in a TTRPG of it blind would be a better experience since I've heard the plot was written on the spot for most of it. Problem is I've seen the aforementioned Autism from its fanbase and finding a group + GM willing to run the game might be just as terrible of an experience.
Tl;Dr To those who know the series should I just read the damn thing or look for a group to try and play in it as a setting.
Also how trash is the fanmade system? It seems to be based around 4E though I haven't read past the introduction of the pdf to avoid spoilers.

>I don't have the copypasta but I need help with an army edition
Just bought a large Circle Orboros collection off my friend and I am now trying to build a list. I would like some advice.
Theme: Wild Hunt
Morvahna the Dawnshadow
-Brennos
-x2 Purebloods
Reeve Hunter
x2 War Wolf
Reeves + UA
Skinwalkers + UA
Death Wolves
Shifting Stones
Obviously not perfect, and the fact that I don't have Wolves of Orboros kinda takes away a big benefit of this theme. I would like to go off of what I have though as I paid a good bit for the collection. I'll post everything I've got in the next post.

Rolled 9 (1d26)
CHOOM everything edition
Convert your stuff subedition
Some Knights Errant watched themselves Mad Max, 8e rules were discussed for ages and Iron Hands are average as always. Anons decided to patch the game a bit, but couldn't agree on Terminator wounds or ranged AP. Primaris found a blue box leading to the Heresy and Scoria has so far escaped the BL idiot beams. Fear Icing is in short supply for Curze's birthday and we ran out of Volkite for the Tactical Marines.

What custom models have you made for your armies, anons? I'm working on some Chainblade Adsec counts-as at the moment, although I'm running out of Kataphron arms and heads to convert them with. My Bitz Box will be pretty empty for infantry conversions for a while after this, although I may have enough for my Archmagos.

TS are of course extremely powerful and, if psychic stuff is what you like, go for them. I'm not very interested in that (and I don't particularly care for their fluff, nor that of SW) so I haven't really given the matter any real consideration.
I like most Legions though the ones I prefer are the ones I mentioned, so if you choose one of those let me know and we can start discussing building lists and how your rules, your RoW and what you can afford alters your playstyle, and what units might be most suited for it.

>freeform rp
Freeform RP is just role-playing with no set of rules or restrictions, there's no challenge or risk if you can just auto-win at everything.
Sure, role-playing itself doesn't require game mechanics, but an entire game built around freeform RP where you automatically win at every skill and attack because "my character is just that good lol" makes it the lowest form of "game" possible.
