Lorgar was right, but that doesn't mean he wasn't also a whiny little pissant. They two aren't mutually exclusive.

Sure, why not?

Was there a primarch who wasn't whiny?

I don't think it's already that bad

Free rules

All the rules are collected in the app

I can't tell you how fucking obnoxious it is to try and get into 40k these days. To figure out what your models do you need to buy the rules book, your army book, and a bunch of other supplementary material. It's a complete mess.

>>47555606
This will be the exactly same thread as the previous one in 3...2...1...

stepping away from the tournament focus literally every other "major" wargame has and instead putting out narrative scenario books was pretty admirable

that's about all I can think off off-hand, aside from Warhammer Quest being a thing again

A Macguffin. Some kind of artifact with great value or potential power to the DE. Some sort of credible rumor as to its whereabouts, that makes her think the Rogue Trader is her best bet to get close to it. Doesn't have to be real, or where you think it is, but that's a motivation.

>>47554801

DEldar are selfish creatures, but they are also pragmatic. They won't actively seek to kill everyone just for the lulz as a chaos cultist would do.

So she's likely to renege on her deal, but given the right motivation she may stick with the party. That motivation may be simply to take part in adventures with a reasonable chance of success, moreover she may not want to return to her kin if she has pissed the wrong person.

Eldar are notoriously very racist so her bonding with a bunch of human is not very likely, however i'd say it is still possible as DEldar are paradoxically more open, mixing with other races more frequently than their righteous brethrens.

Just need to bond a bit with the RT himself really I suppose and tolerate the others. Me and the GM both are less concerned with staying rigidly true to the fluff and more about making sure the group isn't constantly dysfunctional and at each others throat. Some kind of mutual respect if not real friendship.

>>47553818
Probably Maid RPG, since anyone who uses the word "waifus" is probably the target audience for that sort of thing.

You be a racist piece of shit.

You have a white hero save all the black people with his not quite black black strong woman tag along.

Make sure to have literal spear chuckers.

Do you know which system you'll be using? Also, are you aiming for a survival horror experience, or more action shoot-em-up?

>>47548672
On the subjects of puzzles and mystery, I'd suggest paying attention to the way RE games handle these elements, they're pretty good at it.

If you look at how the RE games are designed, they all basically involve one simple set of rules: the characters start in one location, and must work their way through a series of obstacles to travel to another location. The key to this is that the characters are always moving. RE games don't typically rely on stereotypical DnD-style dungeon riddles, their puzzles usually involve trapping the characters in an area and requiring them to collect items or kill certain enemies to escape. Think of how the temple in RE5 utilized this formula for examples.

Now, for a roleplaying game, there needs to be more of an intellectual element for the players to stay interested, as running from one room to another happens much more quickly in the theater of the mind than it does in a video game. For an example of this, I'll include a puzzle I ran in a Dark Heresy campaign recently below:

>>47545374
D&D, current edition whatever that is.

Just because it's the lingua franca of gaming.

>>47545374
I kind of hate 5e D&D, but its simplicity and brand name (few outside the hobby are aware that games besiides D&D exisst) might make it a good choice for babby's first RPG.

GURPS.

Wait, wait, hear me out. Get the super-lite version of GURPS (it's free), and it'll be a good intro to the potential complexity of games and it's a not half-bad system to do so.

5e D&D is what I'd use if I were going to do a full game, though I don't really like doing it for long periods of time because I'm too lazy to plan.

If you want something less complex, Savage Worlds isn't exactly what I'd consider 5/5, but it's a good start and has a solid level of complexity without being mind-bogglingly difficult.

Open Legend is a little rough around the edges, but it's also a good one in terms of simplicity, while offering a degree of tactical grid-based play I've only seen in 4e without sacrificing out-of-combat character development and individuality.

If there's a local gaming shop, that's a great place to check, bonus points if it's not just a comic/card shop but an actual gaming shop with a focus on RPG/wargame stuff (though wargame-only shops probably exist, so I'm speaking from local experience).

I wanna get a Khamal edited to look like Mike Ditka for my Bear Tribal EDH deck. Anyone know a place to get some good edits?

I'm a girl.

18.5 , the previous year, no, no, not yet, only online ones, sad but no

>What's your perception of other people that do /tg/ related things?
It's much easier to understand who the other person is if you see how he behaves in character and in the game. It's nice to be not-blind.

No, you aren't.

4 Against the Darkness Solo RPG

No miniatures are needed. All you need is the book, a pencil, two six sided dice, and grid paper.

You choose four character types from the classic classes (warrior, wizard, rogue, halfling, dwarf, barbarian, cleric, elf), equip them, and start adventuring in dungeons created by dice rolls and by your choices. When you enter a room, you generate its content on a series of random tables. You will meet monsters, fight them, hopefully defeat them (or decide that discretion is the better part of valor!), you'll manage your resources (healing, spells, life points, equipment), grab treasure, dodge traps, find clues, and even accept quests from the monsters you meet. Your characters can level up and become better at what they do, but it will not be easy.

Had to think pretty hard to remember one I liked. This one was theoretically fun, but an unplayable mess. Doesn't have the rules for special powers in character creation.
>Well, maybe you're supposed to use the ones in the core book.
Nope. This game specifically does not include rules for powers it references, which the GM is supposed to make up rules for.
>So it has the guidelines to make up the special abilities, but leaves them open to interpretation?
Nope. No guidelines. No rules. No fleshed-out examples.

Look at it this way, it is energy that is magical in nature.

Just as heat is a form of mundane energy. And sound is a form of energy.

Magical energy is the same shit, but magic. It's nothing specific just like "energy" in real life doesn't mean specifically something like electricity.

>>47530887
Because otherwise it'd be normal energy. The stuff we all deal with on a daily basis.

>>47530887
In my setting, "Pure magical energy" literally does nothing, because anything made of "Pure magical energy" is indistinguishable from the background magic. In fact, that IS the background magic.

To cast spells, the magic must be weaved into patterns, or given flavors, or otherwise be mucked with in some way. This makes the magic do something.

This thing is utterly brutal for my Parallel Lives token deck.

>>47529429
I have three of these. one or two are sideboarded in my BG aristocrats standard deck. I've generated upwards of 10 scions at once on some occasions, with double From Beyond

>>47529446
My best was dropping 512 6/6 Wurms
4 Parallel Lives, Garruk Primal Hunter's ultimate with 8 lands, and then drop a Second Harvest.

I could imagine no better company to grab the cash of ME3 fans than Paizo.

Its over a year away before release ... any excitement just left

Pathfinder is shit, it's a shame that they're not going to improve their shit rules.
