Monopoly is exactly as bad as everyone says it is. That being said, there are a few things you should be prepared for.

1. Figure out in advance whether they have any house rules before you start playing. People generally have preconceived notions about how that game should be played, so you'll want to be prepared. Note that some of these house rules, such as a fairly popular one of putting all taxes/fees that would normally go to the bank on Free Parking, generally screw the game up even more.

2. Work out a time limit in advance. Occasionally, Monopoly games can drag on for hours on end, which leads to lots of bitterness, regret, and boredom. I personally suggest two hours, with whoever having the most assets at that point being declared the winner.

3. Don't take things too seriously. Monopoly, with it's cutthroat nature, has been the bane of many a relationship. Don't be that guy who's bitter for the next week because your girlfriend duped you into a bad trade.

>is exactly as bad as everyine says it is

That's a real bummer. You would think after years of the game being around, they would work out the kinks.

I've also heard house rules ruin the game, so I told them it's an must to stick with the rules in the book.

Well, it's working as intended for its original creator.

It wasn't meant to be fun.

Early 40k, back when it was Rogue Trader, could be used as a starting template.

How do most orc lists turn out in KoW?

Are Cavalry heavy orc lists as good as they used to be?

>>46315264
All the way ;D

Would you guys do anything to fix undying warlock or do you think it's fine as is?

I feel like just a minor tweak here or there could make it pretty great, like modding the 10th lv feature to have the warlock be resurrectable by any necromancy that would raise undead

Monster creating nub here!

Does anyone know if this monster is a CR 4 or a CR 3? I don't think I'm doing the calculations for the Dive trait correctly-- which means it would be a CR 4 instead of 3. Any help?

the innistradi moon is said to have a heron in it. The prophet is decrying this.

The moon also is made of silver which has the ability to trap evil within it.

>>46312287
There's some sort of Horror in the moon. I doubt it's Eldrazi, since they've been hinting at some Horror tribal next set.

There's probably some ancient weird thing from Innistrad that's been trapped in there forever.

Rather wanted to see what a collaborative effort might look like. I know what I would build, what would "we" build, is interesting.

Why not add some more exotic xenos threats than orks and tyranids for a change?

Why not have the sector been subject to a Hrud migration some millennia ago, so that most of it's hives and the sector fleet have all been infested ever since?

Perhaps have a Q'orl invasion fleet. They're from Pacificus, I think, not the fringe, but they're supposed to be highly aggressive expansionists on the verge of reverse-engineering imperial warp technology, so they could well have ended up wherever.

Segmentum Ultima if we want weird alien shit to fight.

Segmentum Obscurus if we want to fight chaos.

Work will set you free.
But then it actually does.

>slavery is used as a punishment for severe criminals
>slavery is only temporary, e.g. for murdering someone you're sentenced to 40 years of slavery but not for life
>slaves still get basic human rights, owners of slaves must feed them sufficient nutrition and basic living spaces
>physical punishment must not be so extreme as to cause debilitating injuries

this is probably more lawful neutral but it's an example of how a character may justify slavery as a concept and still be non-evil

Depends on the society and kind of slavery. When jailhouses are too much of a hassle to build and maintain why not make the crimebreaker into a slave for a while? It's like community service but someone owns them.

Same with the asshole who doesn't pay taxes or his debts.

It only gets straight up evil if the slavery is indefinite with no way out and your kids are born slaves too.

Ran a game where the BBEG was a female Demon Lord trying to ascend to godhood. One of the players thought there was no way she was really a demon lord/ the final boss of the campaign so he challenged her to single combat.
She broke his neck in the second round.

Does it count if she's a Shub-Niggurath type "beast of a thousand twisted young" monster?

>>46298962
Sweet lady lich who basically acted like a doting grandmother to her undead army, and even to the party while they tried to foil her schemes. Never killed any of us when she easily could have because she saw potential in any/all of us to be turned into evil overlords just like her. Our GM played her with enough of a balance of being sympathetic, mad, and insidious, that we didn't regret eventually killing her to cap off the bulk of the adventure, but we started missing her. It was a good run.

If both of them are on the field when you summon Sanwitch, you get a 2.1k beater and you proc both Sangan and Witchy's effects. It's not a minus, which is decent for older fusions.

>>46295704

Except both of its components are banned, so you can't make that card in any shape, way or form.

>>46295756
>judging older cards by the standards of today
Only witchy is banned, and neither of them were banned when it was released.

How would terror tactics work against the night lords?

Weren't the Night Lords capable of predicting the future? Their Primarch certainly was.

Does the witch in question weigh as much as a duck?

Ask nicely, witches cannot lie.

Or was it they cannot lie in the biblical sense, lest they lose their power?

I really like the elegancy of the (4d100/4)-1 that FATAL uses. I just wished it could be extrapolated into a general purpose roll rather than just character generation.

>>46290243
The "Make your own Attack" mechanic. Like what M&M and BESM does. It's cool to come up with your own powers, though usually it lends itself to being easily broken.
