After yesterday's discovery that Macha is apparently seven feet two inches tall (HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK), it dawned on me that your friendly neighborhood guardsman is still listed to be somewhere around 5 feet 9 inches.
In year 40,999...
Isn't that strange?
Humans grew almost 4 inches in the last 100 years.
I'm no saying 40k humans should be 5 stories tall, but keeping M2 height seems wrong to me.
>>49502057
Most humans live in hive cities and are pretty underfed/live in cramped quarters. You've got civilized worlds, and even utopian ones, but it kinda balances out with the people that live as literal cavemen.
>>49502083
There should be at least some residual height from the pre-Age of Strife era, I meant we're talking goddamn 25 thousand years of scientific advancement and all around pretty swell time to be human, relatively speaking.
>>49502179
You don't seem to understand just how important diet is in how much you grow.
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2016/09/antibiotic-resistance-bacteria-disease-united-nations-health/?linkId=29137110
In the future, antibiotic resistant diseases will force more doctors to perform amputations to remove infected limbs, and will make tissue transplants much riskier.
Will antibiotic resistance lead to increased demand for inorganic cyber-limbs?
>>49498839
Since cyber-limbs give corporations a direct control over individuals, they'll at least make you believe that you need them.
Anyway that's not a question for /tg/.
You're probably a clickbait news shill anyay.
>>49498860
>You're probably a clickbait news shill anyay.
You got me. How would National Geographic magazine survive in this economy if it didn't have page views from 4chan to keep it afloat?
>>49498839
Different coporations start marketing their own brands of cyberlimbs after a universal coupling system is made to make grafting/swapping them out easier
>Some companies even create implants that cause the universal connectors to send signals to the brain to make you feel sick if you don't take their special anti-rejection drugs which are actually a placebo.
Why are 3.PF fans so in denial about their system? Why are they such blind fanboys? Why are they shills?
I agree with you that they're idiots, but come the fuck on. At least shitpost in their general.

As a regular PF GM, this angers and disgusts me.

I want to make a Magic Yu-gi-oh themed deck. Lots of trap cards morph creatures, spell equivalents etc.
Has anyone seen a similar deck or got card suggestions
Been having good results with this list I've been working on

4x Aether Vial
4x Champion of the Parish
4x Thalias Lutienent
4x Zulaport Cuthroat

2x Dismember
2x Path to Exile
2x Westvale Abbey
1x Plains
1x Island
1x Swamp
4x Flooded Strand
3x Polluted Delta
2x Watery Grave
3x Hallowed Fountain

1x Elspeth, Knight-Errant
3x Mana Leak
2x Spell Queller
1x Graff-Digger's Cage
1x Disenchant
1x Rachetbomb
1x Path to Exile
2x Supreme Verdict
2x Selfless Spirit
1x Pithing Needle
>Basic Rundown
Using some good peices of the "Aristocrats" deck. Combined with thalias lutienent for added pressure (cartel and cutthroat are humans). This creates enough steam to wear out your opponents resources with removal and tempo plays via the wondrous aethervial.
This is not the final version. Currently this is version 5.
>the strange foreign knight has fused Western and Eastern styles together to become utterly undefeatable in single combat
>>49481739
It's a trick.
Eastern and Western styles when it comes to practical combat aren't actually that different because the basic physics of human beings and material strength are universal, so if he's truly unbeatable he's using some kind of magic or (more likely) he's a powerful supernatural being in disguise under all the armor.

I claim this thread in the name of the Neverborn
>from last thread
So thinking about the Tara advice you all helped with earlier in the thread and the Upcoming Divergent paths games I need to get in this week, I'm thinking about running this:
Tara -- 4ss
+Dead Of Winter - 1ss
+Obliteration Symbiote - 2ss
+Scramble - 2ss
Karina - 5ss
+The Faces Of Oblivion - 0ss
Bishop - 10ss
Death Marshal - 6ss
Freikorps Trapper - 6ss
The Nothing Beast - 10ss
+Void Shield - 0ss
Void Wretch - 4ss
Void Wretch - 4ss
Idea is that the trapper helps out the kid and takes pot shots at any scheme runners that try to get up on him, While Tara hauls ass across the board before dumping Bishop and The nothing beast on the opponent's doorstep to "Play" the rest of the crew runs the Schemes and gets rid of the witchling stalkers as they chase the kid, and in the case of the man puppy guards him

It's also worth noting that Both nothing beast and bishop can be swapped out for Hannah, Taelor, Dr. Grimwell (or if I find two points killjoy) But I chose Bishop based on his access to swift and the fact that with fast he gets downright nasty.
alright you stupid googles, it's time to play some RISK.

Hear ye, hear ye. I hereby call to order this meeting of the most illustrious Mages Guild! I´m sure many of you know, a large number of our familiars have unionized and gone on strike, citing that 643 days a year working is unfair and impossible. This is of course, not true. But the point remains that most of you rely heavily on your familiars for this or that. We need to get the situation back under control. Discuss ways to make them happy, or enslave them. I don't care. And what familiars did you youngsters have again?
What's this about familiars going on strike?
Mine's perfectly happy!
>>49505269
Goddamnit, my familiar is calling meetings again. How many times do I have to tell you, Antruthius, you're not an "Archwizard"!
>>49505269
Familiars? Say, does my cat count? She is always a little rude.
>>49505289
Maybe you treat yours better, than our bigwig described?

>>49492851
DMs, how do you run your dungeon crawling? Maps, grids, theatre of the mind, abstract dungeoneering?
Additionally to everyone, have you encountered tables (or done yourself) that provide great effort in providing visuals, grids, etc such as pic related?
>>49502584
Maps with grids is the best way to do it. Though, as a roll20 DM, I tend to not map out areas unless it's important that it has a map. I'll usually have a picture to sum up areas, then draw combat maps as needed.Yes, I know, I'm lame.
That table's cool as fuck. That's a great way of using that program. You don't even need a super expensive projector for it. Must've been lots of work, though.
>>49502584
>>49502377
>>49502377

>>49502377
Reposting this question.
>>49502584
My group prefers theater of mind, though if an area is big enough we'll break out a grid and minis. Most memorable was when we did a running battle through a city, and we broke out the Mordheim terrain. Having a batshit crazy troll on an Otuygh chariot chase you down is something you don't forget easy.
I'm gearing up to run SKT soon and it looks like I may have an all warlock party to contend with. Patrons look like GOO, two different Fiends, and an Undying. At least one of each pact. Anything I should be careful about, other than the lack of versatility, and maybe staying power per encounter? They're most likely to be based out of Waterdeep so buying consumable magic items/hirelings will be easy.
Board Game General Thread
something something edition
>typical question?
>One more?
I just really want this thread back up lol sorry i suck at starting these...
Is Talisman worth a buy?
I'm super conflicted on this one, and have been bleeding cash for games lately so I'm a bit hesitant...
It looks cool, but I wanna hear some opinions...
I'm feeling some pressure because from what I hear this one's going OOP or something so idk im scared u guize.
Any thoughts?
>>49430579
No.
The games take too long, one or two players usually become the apparent winners after not too long and the others just go through the motions.
I have the base game and 5 expansions and we'll never play it again.
i totally forgot to make the subject bgg, im retarded =-=
Working on worldbuilding a setting with multiple races, human and not. There's one kind of human that I want to have as the majority of NPCs in towns and such, close to late medieval Europeans in terms of technology and style, for the sake of familiarity for players. The problem I have is that I don't want them to just be bland humans that you could find in just about any fantasy setting, yet I don't want to deviate too far from that comfort zone.
There's no Christianity analogue so religion is up in the air for the most part.
Any ideas?
>>49488217
Make them a race of fallen angels with a natural ambition and drive to attain power, in hopes of day reclaiming their divinity.
>>49488217
Something like Bretons maybe? Like they would all have an understanding of magic or at least be familiar with. Potentially potency with it too.
>>49488281
>>49488555
These anons kinda go with what I was thinking.
Give them a sort of 'hidden potential' possibly magic that they all could achieve with proper education and training.
The concept dark souls had where they all stemmed from darkness and their current state isn't exactly their true form was pretty cool too.
