At a glance, I would avoid. When making tree stands for wargaming, you have to think practically; those trees are realistically high, but 2/3 of them are too short to fit miniatures under/around. It's probably better to make your own trees; you're shooting for @ 3" of trunk so stuff like staffs or spears clear the foliage.

The best trees I'd say are the ones with the best price-amount ratio whilst being durable.

Classic toilet-brush style trees (can make them yourself with flock, wire and gutter cleaners or just buy them in bulk from various places) are still a great option despite not looking that spectacular due to not falling apart constantly.

Never underestimate how much damage terrain can take over time from having wargamers and their miniatures interact with it.

First principles: Gaming or diorama?
If diorama, use what you think looks best. If gaming, avoid trees. They're often flimsy, shed, easy to knock over and a pain to transport without damaging them accidentally. Your pic is a board for 6-10mm historicals, but still uses my group's preferred felt rectangles to represent area terrain, where "Forest" is ably marked with a piece of green fabric. That said, we do sometimes weight the corners with some model trees glued to steel flatwashers for visual appeal. More than that, and moving models on the table becomes problemmatic at 28mm scale. That said, based Scotchbrite "hedges" are pretty common with fantasy players because they're sturdy and stable - organic versions of the the jersey barrier models common on SciFi gaming boards.

HTH

Those weird native guys with the blowdart guns from Crystal Skull.

That would be an interesting encounter. It's not a straight up fight, you have to actually catch the bastards. Five or six of those guys, if properly implemented, could be a real pain in the ass.

It would serve to keep the players on their toes too.

>>48260008
Piles of garbage and other discardables.

>>48260008
Bits of wire, mostly ruined cabling, rusted metal panelling, hollow pipes to crawl through for shortcuts. Maybe something useful like a tool or bits of radio.

"Well, they're the friends I told you about" She says nodding as Sam scratches his beard, looking like he's trying to figure out a way to ruin this reunion "Well, Bailey...the rabbitkin, and Sam are at least, this is Krovachi, my...older sister, and the rest are"

"The one who joined the legions" the bull man asks, as the younger garderners shut up "Hmm, so the rumors are true then, thought that was just a bunch of noble blabbering"

"What a pretty angel" the other elf girl says, touching my wings "shame she's a moth though, butterflies are oh so much more helpful with gardening"

"Um" I mummer, feeling a little embarrassed and out of place right now, it feels like I'm back to how it used to be, for some reason
*Trust me, I don't like this either...don't like how they're talking to lucy"

simmer down, they're her friends aren't they


"As I was saying" Lucy sighs "the one in the mask is smiley, she doesn't say much, the girl with all the hair is Berry and she's kind of Krovy's apprentice I guess, the golden duergar is Minor, and well she's been following us around since we saved her"

"Yo" Smiley says, flasing a peace sign

"Nice to meet all of you" Berry says, peeking over the edge of the cart "Care to introduce yourselves"

"Hiyah" Minor says happily, grinning widely and making a few of them step back because of her teeth "What not scared of the hiver right next to you?"

And then they notice little green, and most of them take several steps back

"Minor" Lucy sighs, rubbing her temply "Don't worry Mini, he doesn't bite"

"Besides people I tell him to" I say flatly as the minotaur walks up and looks him dead in the eyes

"Hmm, not yours" He says with a relieved sigh "Anyways Krovachi I am Tanglehorn, and I've heard Muuuch about you"

I dunno, there are a bunch of cool ones to choose from. Nightshades seem pretty cool, since they live in black holes on the negative energy plane and all.

Every part of Britain was Arthur's kingdom OP, at least going by the classical stories. King Lot and the Orkneys play a big part. Anyway here's a big Pendragon folder:

Scotland isn't in that map at all? I mean, heck, regardless of the common misconception, Hadrian's Wall isn't even the border with Scotland, it's entirely in England.

It's definitely off to an interesting start, I suppose.

She has nice legs.

It's flavor of the month and will be nothing more. It certainly won't be another dungeon meshi.

Does that make us widely misunderstood bad guys?

>>48246179
The only example of this I have would be both too real and too /pol/. So I got nothing.

>>48246460
From a certain point of view, but as long as you have the high ground, I think it'll be fine.

A fucked up valkyrie. A Chooser of the Slain building an army of undead champions for the End Times. Except instead of waiting for valiant warriors to die in combat she finds those with skill she admires and kills them herself. Maybe she actually is doing it for the greater good, preparing for something worse than herself. Or maybe she's just lost it.

An motherly doting healer that you befriend in the beginning but was pulling many of the strings the whole time. Eventually they show their true colors and attack the party, your prior interactions determine if you have a shot at convincing them to unironically act pleasant again.

They believe they've been brought back for a reason. Maybe that there goal before they died was in the right, that they were chosen or that the gods really need a person like them on Earth for their grand schemes.

We also have a couple supplementary documents:

This is a rundown of all the Psychs in the source game. As we develop the system these will be fleshed out with actual mechanics.

The Thread Count:

This is going to catalog the various Threads (clothing) and Brands from the source game, as a resource for GMs to use in their own games.

Also, I could have sworn we had another link. Oh well.

>What's on the Agenda?
Final touches for pins, a few more noise and small adjustments will be all we need for playtesting.

I know I said that last time, but I really mean it for realsies this time.

Reposting because it involves robooty and is difficult for people like me who aren't well versed in it.

Basically I'm going to be getting my hands on an obscure garage kit soon, a Dimension Diver/Daibadi Aphrodite A color resin type. A few other dudes are also interested in having one, but this seems so rare that the one I happened to snag seems to be the last one that could generally be found easily at all.

Basically, what I and those guys would like to do is find a means to recast the models' parts so that everyone can get the model rather than there being just the one. If anyone knows of a service or group that could help, or if you're up for it (hopefully without destroying the base model!), please do help out. Are you taking casting commissions, or do you know someone who does? If so, multiple people may be interested.

The model is articulated and uses separately purchased joints, if that's important.

I prefer a more low level stuff, space truckers equivalents, lots of fighters and other small tonnage crafts, perhaps some corvettes and frigates or even destroyers and cruisers in the HW vein as big baddies to spice it up, and in the fringe of civilization with not many but colorful aliens.

Depends on how bland and over-the-top it is.


Granted, if you take it over the top in the right manner, it's funny as hell and becomes good again, or if you satirize it a bit.
Black Trenchcoats and Katanas, Vampire Half-Demon Samurai guy on a quest to avenge his Succubus wife who was raped and murdered infront of him by Catholic Robot Cyborgs. That kind of shit.

Is try hard bad?
Just about any action that is lacking self reflection is bad.
So yes, edgy is often bad because the people who are doing it are unaware how it makes them look like a spoiled teenager.
