Try WHFRP 2E, it has none of the weird shit. The bullshit cards, counters, dice and that all got tacked on in 3E, which was widely regarded as a poor decision.

There's the older WHFRPG, can probably find scans somewhere.

This, maybe?

well, [Alien Manhunter]... I think I'd prefer hunting solo for entertainment purposes. I'd try to hunt and imprison or threaten (bomb implants or so) the more harmless Gifted like [Miracle] to have access to their abilities.

[Clairvoyant] might be tough to bust, but [Phoenician] might be just as useful.

[Technomancer] seems like the biggest natural enemy. Imprisonment and threatening with technological means are out of the question, so the only options are to avoid or kill it when a chance comes up.

[Time Warden] and [Clairvoyant] are trouble for anyone who is up to no good, but might not necessarily care, as long as they or most of the world aren't harmed.

[The Janitor] and a couple of other Gifted in Chaos could be troublesome if encountered, but killing is usually the best solution.

[Slayer] should really be everyone's top priority, so unless one secures [Clairvoyant]'s, [Warrior]'s, [Phoenician]'s or [Outsider]'s support, no one who isn't at least a b-class immortal is safe.

>>47327404
Oh and I'd make sure to pay [Netherlord]/[Beelzebub] a visit and offer my services in exchange for recreational goodies. Either that or hunt pussy the traditional way... or the [Alien Manhunter]/Papua-New-Guinea-way... whatever

well it's 4:20am here, so I won't shitpost for a couple of hours

Those chessex dice boxes.

>>47326995
There are several elevation tools for holding minis in the air. In the end you may just want to mark heights using dice on the base of the mini. Using an escelator may be convenient at the ceiling of the average dungeon, but not in an open encounter where two guys are dueling 300 feet above ground on their flying steeds.

If you want to discuss something I'm writing, the IRC channel for /tg/ writethreads (and 4chan writefaggotry in general, technically) is #writesccribbles on Rizon.

Cool. Indiana Jones-esque adventure, or something more thoughtful?

It's a touch OP, but nobody plays Yugioh aside from kids, and black kids anyway.

>>47326885
Thought they played Pokemon.

Don't have every section give a bonus, and don't let people "control" more than one location at time.

That makes it far too chaotic, potentially too hard to dislodge them, and doesn't make much sense with the "group of 6-12 men creeping through the scary ruins of a tainted city" aspect of Mordheim.

That being said, I'd do some more minor stuff like
>A defender controlling the Brewery automatically pass the first Rout check they are called upon to make, and may not voluntarily rout, as the men want to keep their hands on the Beer
>Defenders controlling the Wizard's Tower can see enemies coming, and add +1 to checks to deploy first and have the first turn
>People on docks can attack any other docks location

So forth.
Don't have big stuff, have minor but cool effects.
Mordheim's about searching the entire city for Wyrdstone shards, not about fortifying one location and holding it off against all comers.

>>47326523
See the fortifying part is not a problem with my group, as they have a tendency to gang up on any one that's actually winning, and thus abusing the rules of multiple gang warfare, the larger bonuses would be for large areas, with many smaller 'border' territories in between, so a gang that wishes to gain the bar would have to either win 4-5 gang fights to expand there and then hold it, or be incredibly successful on their exploration rolls, another one I was thinking;

The doktor - the doktor is in - once campaign month controlling play may roll 1d6 for that amount of bonus xp, though on the roll of a 1 player must roll on the head critical table after the doktors 'tinkering' goes wrong

>>47326740
The fortifying part is not a "game balance" problem, is that's Mordheim's not a game about holding up in the city.

After every mission you're heading out of the city to buy/sell items and shards in the camps outside. "Holding territory" doesn't really make much sense in that kind of situation.

Especially when Warbands are as small as they are.

>>47325580
First I want you to explain what you think "retconning" means.

>>47325619
But before that, explain your current fantasy world.

>>47325619

Just restarting everything from the top. Maybe keep the name and some of the cosmology but destroy most of the content.

>>47325629

I don't want to get too into detail but;
>The Gods are the stars and moons
>The planet is also a God
>Sun is hell; where all the demons live
>Humans are the 'made people'- essentially they are everywhere because all the Gods found them easy to make.
>Bronze age style setting with some more fantasy metals in there for a clear progression of weapon materials
>Very poorly defined magic system
>Kind of boring and kitchen sink in terms of other races and nations

I kind of want to start over and do something a bit more focused. Keep the name and some cosmology but add in stronger racial divides and maybe make the setting have a little more generic technology but keep the weird metals to make it interesting.

So even long after the victim is dead, he still gets to torture the investigators. Brilliant.

Fuck Siembieda, fuck him in his lying ass. He can eat my shit, then shit out my shit, then eat his shit that is made up of my shit. I will pirate the hell out of it to avoid giving him even a single one of my jewgolds.

>>47324647
This is Pinnacle running the Kickstarter, not Siembieda. So it will actually deliver.

Also, Shane Hensley is just as opinionated and pushy as Siembedia so he'll probably push back if Kevin starts flailing around like a retard again.

>>47324779
Either way, Kevin is getting paid from that. So fuck it. I really hope it comes out a backer ran his ass down, he deserved it.

One time I played as Great Cthulhu, defender of the Earth. I did it before that video game came out. It was awesome. He fought to defend mankind from robots from space, and threw the ISS at their leader, thus destroying the town and saving the earth.

Well I play geist, so going to hell is kinda a thing.

I'm considering having the Empress that is the current vessel of the world's goddess send the players to hell but I'm not sure why she would yet.

Maybe she's sick of their murdering and attempted rapes.

I don't like people who trash talk in character when I'm just trying to play relaxing game with my toy soldiers. I get that the universe is what makes it fun for you and, but I don't need you yelling Hersey at me from across the table constantly. Maybe try socializing outside of repeating some meme about how awesome your team is?
