Play Trunks with Saiyan Rampaging Mastery. Gf plays black #18, it's vicious against my all-out playstyle. Debating on changing to Orange Adept Mastery, just to switch up play style. What do you think op?

Alright let's discuss this.

Needs more codexes. I like a lot of your ideas in theory, but I'm haven't (and won't until there are more codexes) read through them fully.

Not crazy to see blanket Deny The Witch back, but at least you seem to have done some work making Witchfires less awful. I'd look at making Witchfires auto-hit (or only scatter 1D6). You can reduce the number of shots to compensate, but a lot of armies (IG, Renegades, Orks) see the utility of their psykers severely hampered by how difficult it is to cast a Witchfire only to watch the shots fail to hit anything.

Are you still going to be doing Codex-specific disciplines? If so, why? One of the big issues I have with the current disciplines is how random the random power selection is, and how many of the powers are functional duplicates.
>>
>>49865779
Coders will come with time.

Witch fires do auto hit in Custom Redux.

Codex specific disciplines will return with less duplicates, but it's also a way of limiting certain powers.

Has anyone run any steampunky campaigns? I'm looking into ideas for portable steam weapons? Plausibility and possible ways to use said weapons. Perhaps larger weapons as well.

I've thought of a number of different ways to weaponize steam. Since none are used in real life, regular gunpowder is probably better. But that's why fiction instead of reality.

From the water tanks that get heated to bullets with water replacing the gunpowder that get a charge of electricity to flash boil the interior. Mythbusters did a thing on a larger weapon that used steam to spin a centrifuge that launched projectiles. It was actually fairly plausible, though not lethal.

Perhaps two canisters filled with chemicals that react explosively together to fire a projectile. It wouldn't be steam, but it would be along the same line of thought.

Any ideas?

A sword where pipes run along the length of the blade and the superheated water runs through it. This doubles by cooling the water, and heating the blade, providing an extra... edge to it. Then there's a small trigger on the hilt that vents some of the heated water out the pommel for a scarring weapon, or steam cover.

>>49862964
/tg/ doesn't hate Tau.

/tg/ hates a specific subset of Tau players, and that hate spills over into Tau players in general.

my personal gripe is that Tau don't ever really "lose," and haven't run face-first into the reality that is the Milky Way galaxy.

They REALLY need to get fucked over by a Warpstorm for a while, which forces their society to confront literally everything about their ideology.

Why are lasguns always portrayed as having regular firearm muzzle flashes? What kind of projectile are they even firing anyway? Is it a beam, is it like blasters from Star Wars, is it so fast you can't even see it?

It's a laser pulse. Really, it shouldn't look like much of anything coming out of the gun, but artists are gonna artist license.

Supposedly it's invisible to the eye. The laser beam that comes up in vidya is there so the shots are more visually interesting.

The High Lords of Terra, in their infinite wisdom and eternal care for the people of the Imperium, have arranged a council to investigate abuse of power by the Inquisition.

This council has been headed by the only servants of the Imperium capable of investigating such a powerful group; an Astartes chapter. However, fearing that any well respected chapter could use its position to unite other chapters who hate the Inquisition against it, Terra has carefully selected a chapter which no other Astartes will ever consider allying with; the Marines Malevolent.

How would you handle drug addiction in your games, mechanically speaking? That is, where the players being addicted to something is a plot point and not just backstory or something.

I was thinking that one good way to handle it might be to make a roll of some kind against an appropriate player stat (e.g. Willpower in D&D or Shadowrun) - if the DM beats the player, then the character loses control to their addiction and must seek out their drug of choice (to the point of "making" their character do something). Obviously certain groups wouldn't be OK with that, but it might be interesting if everyone was on board.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

I would handle it the same way Fallout does. Make a roll every time the player consumes an addictive substance. If the roll fails, the player becomes addicted. For each day the character is in withdrawal, several of their stats are diminished until the character either rides the withdrawals out, or gives in and consumes more of the substance.

Drug withdrawals can average within the area of two weeks, but I guess that can be adjusted depending on how potent the drug is. Being addicted to something like benzos can produce withdrawal symptoms literally for years.
>>
Will saves are an appropriate use, but should only be applied when there is a known source of the drug nearby. If the trip to that source is not immediate the character should get additional saves due to time to rethink their actions. The character can help relegate this issue by getting rid of any nearby known sources (though this in itself may require a willpower check.) Part of roleplaying is playing a character under the influence of such affects, and as such, you should give the player the chance to play out the failure and only handle the actions yourself if they refuse to handle it properly. Do not let a player argue their control should supercede effects like this; that's like arguing that they should have immunity to fear and charm affects because they impact control of their character.

Temporary stat loss can represent withdrawal symptoms. Say, -2 STR and DEX to represent shaking and -1 accuracy in sunlight to represent sensitivity to light. This creates an incentive to reuse the drug to deal with the withdrawal.

Permanent stat loss can represent the long term side effects of abuse. Charisma and willpower are good stats to affect here, though it will vary per drug. Drugs that decay willpower show how long term addiction becomes increasingly difficult to overcome, while charisma show the lasting affects on their appearance and interference with day to day interactions with others. These sorts of effects should only be applied over the very long term, such as a year or more of constant abuse.

Are there any other things in life besides being a GM that having only the skill of powerful imagination and basically being an "idea guy" allow you to thrive in? Do you feel like your ability to be imaginative help you in your everyday life? I'm a Web Developer so aside from the ability to think about layouts it doesn't help me at all.
