There were plenty of authentic substitutes during medieval times. Tea itself was unheard of, drinking hot brew from dried and fermented leaves was widespread.

Pic related.

Every culture has had some form of herbal "tea" beverage.

Aside from that, if your setting has the Monk class, there's no real reason it shouldn't also have Camellia sinensis tea as well.

SLA Industries seems to be making a comeback, I always enjoyed cyberpunk + horror. CthulhuPunk had a better setting than most other cyberpunk games.

>Love
I love the ambient, that mix of noir movie with cutting edge tech. I love the contrast between the clean and sanitized corporate world and the dirty and gritty the life on the street where vice is cheap and life even cheaper. And finally, I always was a sucker for cities like pic related.

>Hate
Over the top, exaggerated content based on shitty ideas taken here and there. This would include stuff like killer clown gangs, samurai-pizza delivery men, armored hovercrafts that belong to punk gangs, 15yo elite ninja assassins, armored stockings and bandanas, grannies with anti-tank missiles, furries, etc. I also hate when artists put lights on armor and guns to make them look cyberpunk. Might just as well walk around with an illuminated bullseye on the forehead. But this is more a detail.

No he shouldn't be brought back, it's an shit god to appeal to sad atheists.

GW gives a shit only about Khorne, completely ignoring the other 3.

Do you think they have place for a 5th God?

Come to think of it, anyone got any fun ideas for a Malal colour scheme for fantasy minis?

Chess-board could work but kind of boring to paint.

Selfishness is neutrality, OP
Evil in D&D can b summed up as "It is not enough that I should succeed, others should fail"

>>47056797
Yeah thar hermit be neutral, lass

>>47056797
Those horns are asking to be touched

Yes.

The Imperium doesn't oppress technology because they hate it and are allergic to improvements. They oppress technology because the warp is constantly waiting and it will use every opportunity to screw things up. It's entirely possible to accidentally create something that happens to have just the right layout of lines and angles to conduct warp energy and make the whole thing unstable and/or inherently corrupting (this happened on a large scale with one of the grand cruisers in the navy - their crews all invariably turned traitor from warp influence and the design is now wholly found within heretic fleets).

The STC templates have a record full of designs that verifiably don't do this, so they're the gold standard. The Mechanicus does undertake research and development, but it's a painstaking process because what does and doesn't invite warp corruption doesn't really follow logical laws, so most of it is trial and error - and when you're designing guns the size of houses, you want to err on the size of caution.

In your example, the Imperium would absolutely kill Da Vinci and burn his airship, because there's every possibility that its construction is - unbeknownst to him - inviting demons in and it'll fuck up whole areas of the planet. They could check with specialised equipment and psykers, but they're rare and not actually that reliable and won't catch every possible scenario, so it's easier to have a blanket-ban enforced and mandate that only the AdMech get to tinker with technology. And even within the AdMech, what kinds of tinkering you're allowed to do is strictly controlled within their hierarchy.

>>47056530
No. If you are asking for tech heresy, no it does not work like that.

>>47056661
>This meme again

The AdMech just hoards technology because they don't want to share it, and use "muh demons" as an excuse as to why only the STC templates are widespread.

yea it happens just not all that often. there aren't many examples i think it happens in one of the books

>>47056165
Nothing really stops it, but I'm guessing their ideologies and disconnect from one another makes it harder. I think both are far more likely to join corsair fleets than each other. Don't harlequins recruit from both sides?

>>47056263
I would have thought that vat-grown Dark Eldar wouldn't be the same as true born and regular Eldar. So they don't manipulate their genes at all?

>>47055837

Unfortunately, you can't do this. I would let you do it if it were RAW even though it's not RAI (Salamanders know how to master-craft their battle barge weapons batteries), but you can't do this even by abusing RAW.

The Orbital Strike Relay is not a weapon, it is "treated as" a weapon. In the Chapter Master's entry, it is listed under "wargear", not "weapons". You cannot mastercraft "wargear" just like you can't mastercraft his storm shield or artificer armor or iron halo.

All weapons are listed under wargear, the Orbital Strike is also listed under ranged weapons just like bolters and plasma pistols. Check it out real quick.

>>47055861

Nevermind, I just checked, in the 7E codex they lumped weapons all into wargear, and Orbital Strike's rules are in the Ranged Weapons armoury list, so yeah you can MC orbital strikes.

P. sure this isn't /tg/, but if it is, go with Agricola. Carcassonne isn't simplistic, there's a billion different versions of the rules, and all in all it's generally shit.

Agricola is way better.

>>47055878
>board games
>not /tg/

Fucking what, you moron? Is anything /tg/ anymore?

I haven't played Agricola but Carcassonne isn't that great.

Have you tried Ticket to Ride? It's as simple to play as Carcassonne but less random.

I always thought it was weird that that one reporter chick wanted to get the gargoyle dick. I mean, I wasn't attracted to the chick gargoyle.

Ok, that second part was a lie. Between her and the chick mummy from mummies alive, I had so many kid boners I didn't understand.

>reporter

Eliza was a cop. You are thinking of April from Ninja Turtles.

Oh. I thought that one kind of hot spic from Batman was a cop and the Gargoyles chick was a reporter. Man, 80's and 90's cartoons had some breddy gud eye candy.

Assign each class feature, race feature, and proficiency a point value and require high-level features to be locked behind ability trees.

It'd take some work but could be done.

>Freeform if you will
Well, no. You're taking the basis of a system and altering it to suit your taste or whim. It's still a system with rules, not freeform.

>>47054248
That meme is outdated.

/tg/ doesn't get a fucking thing done any more. We just bitch about everything and claim everything is shit while one or two people try to get shit done and ultimately give up.

If you don't want classes just use an existing system that doesn't use classes. It would be easier and better.

Fuck, that is a lot of work.
So how would you earn points then? Keep the leveling system and gain a set amount of points every level, or say every 10 or 100 experience points equals one skill point?

Also would ability trees work like classes or can we base it off of ability scores? Say, most feats from fighter and ranger originate from the strength and constitution area while wizard feats are from the intelligence area?
