Multipurpose guns are top-tier.

Warmachine has sucked since Remix. This is old news.

>>49601049
What's wrong with remix?

Wasn't that just 1.5e, where they did a massive errata and streamlined stuff, like giving fire to the repenter's flamethrower, etc?

>>49601041
>PP was supposed to be the one to steal GW's crown.
And they did it in terms of rules (most of ex-GW players comes to WH because of rules).
>Now it seem that x-wing has come out of the blue and might be the one to steal the throne.
Already happened.

Who cares ya nerd

>>49601012
It's not that he got it wrong that I have a problem with, it's the general idea of "everything is stolen from 40K" when most of 40K's ideas are from other, older material.

>>49601061
There is nothing new under the sun, and honestly, 40k did most of the tropes that WERE stolen from it better. I'm sorry that that triggers you. And if you disagree you're a dingus.

I think it's a remarkably well-designed game for what it tries to be. The whole mechanic of setting goals and trying to achieve them is a lot more interesting than a lot of other mass-market style board games.

We aren't THAT bad. We're not /v/.

>>49599413
They had stumbled upon an enchanted box, protected by a ghost-like creature, and Diablo kept rolling natural 20 after natural 20, doing things like casting certain spells on the ghost that would give them a disadvantage. The ghost was dead before the first turn even ended

Even then, I thought, “Okay, whatever, this is just a bump in the road.”

Clearly I was wrong.

As if Diablo’s presence had made Jesus Christ himself cry on the dice, everyone began to make great rolls. The person who had the worst rolls in the sessions was now rolling 15s and 19s. These god-forsaken players used this stroke of luck to take a letter with some words smudged out and pester me to let them rub it with charcoal or some shit to see what it said.

I adamantly refused. I put my foot down. I said, “Hell no, we can beat around the bush til the cows come home, I’m not allowing it.”

You all have to understand, it was 5 peoples against one, and eventually I just said, fuck it, do it. I prayed that they would get a shitty roll. I prayed to every deity there was.

My hopes, however, were squandered when DIABLO STEPPED UP TO TAKE THE ROLL. And what do you think this asshole rolled? That’s right, tater tots, A NATURAL 20.

I'll be nice and bump, but you best ask a question at the end so we can keep the thread rolling.

>>49599416
Time s”emed to stop. I flipped off the players as I read what the letter said. They immediately figured out who the villain was and went to confront her.

And this tittylicker Diablo, upon the villain revealing herself, was like “I CAST ELDRITCH BLAST ON HER LEGS SO SHE CAN’T RUN AWAY.”

This time I really did put my foot down.

“HELL NO. SHE TELEPORTS AWAY BEFORE YOU CAN DO THAT.”

Diablo, at this point, for the rest of the session and onwards, rolled anything above a 15. You can probably see where this is going.

So the party makes their way down through a secret passage and they have the final confrontation with our villain, who is trying to channel the devil she worships.

Before the battle even fucking starts, Diablo says, “I cast hex on her.”

For those who are unaware, “hex” is a move that, if successful, gives its victim a disadvantage on wisdom saving throws.

I should have said, “diablo, wait for the battle to start.” I should have told him no. I should have done something. But I was desperate to just get this show on the road. So I let him do it.

He rolls. I am at the edge of my seat. For a moment, Diablo puts his face in his hands and heaves a sigh. My heart leaps in my chest. Such a face could only mean a shitty roll, I thought.

Diablo then turned, looked me dead in the eyes, and said, “You’re going to hate me for this.”

Natural. Twenty.

He saw the sorrow in my eyes. I accused him of flipping the die. He proceeded to take a picture of his screen and send it in our Skype group chat.

Sure enough, it was a natural 20.

Would the UNSC be open to the ideas of the Greater Good? How about the Innies?

>>49599400
Tau and the UNSC aren't too far off. Odds are things would go ok until the Tau started trying to strip away our culture, in which case we'd blow them away with Spartan power.

>>49599670
The UNSC isn't monoculture. And neither are the Tau. The Tau worlds and septs have their own cultures.

>>49598965
Your players know you bullshitted everything.
They can tell you didn't plan.

>>49598965

You can get away with that in bullshit games like DnD where the setting has no depth and the interest of the shit-tier players is focussed 95% on combat encounters.

Won't work for good games with complex settings and/or rulesets.

>when you bullshit your way through an entire session
Not sure if I would feel any joy from this. I mean, it's basically what I already do 5 days a week for the living. My games of pretend should be escape from that...

>>49598691

I forgot to add, I think there is an issue with the jobs page.

If you apply for a position once, you can't apply for that position ever again. So, for instance, if you apply for the trainee miniature designer position and don't get hired, but months later your skills improve and they list the position again, you can't apply for it.

People improve, so why don't they let people reapply later on?

>>49598716
How many months?
Less than 12 tends more toward pestering.

>>49598776

It varied, but a few guys I talked to applied back in 2016 for a position, they posted the position again last month but it wouldn't let them reapply, stating they had already applied for that position.

That just seems weird to me.

I'm considering applying, but it feels like they don't hire anyone from the USA anymore, or at least to work at the HQ in the UK.

Ryuutama?

Fate, though it can go either way

Many systems let you get by with just charming and mindbreaking people if you're playing the right character (Psion in D&D, Ventrue in WoD: Vampire, etc.).

But there's also Ruyat, Ryuta... whatever, the Japanese thing made in the spirit of Ghibli storytelling.

>>49598347
It has already crashed. Legacy is only for people stupid enough to pay thousands for nothing and vintage is impossible for normal people.

No, though the increased rate that they are churning out product may become a contributor when it does.

>>49598347
Reserved list is solid as a rock. All other cards will eventually tank a la Yugioh.

Who the fuck cares?

>>49597949
>Is it necrophilia
no
>Is it still wrong
Yes
>Do you deserve to have smite cast on you and then cleaved?
Also yes

Final Stand. It's a really great beer and pretzels martial arts RPG, take a look.

I haven't played it so I'm not sure, but have you considered Paranoia?
I think there's even premade character sheets in one of the rulebooks

Who let you into my house?
