>fogs and golgari decoys for flashy nuclear finishes

Aside from one casual like me playing slivers, everyone was pretty meta. One burn one artifacts rest were Eldrazi. Miraculously I made it to the final match.

Tubby was pretty chill. He tipped his fedora ironically and said GG. But a few regulars at the store were giving me the stinkeye. I heard one of them whisper "annoying retard" while looking at me.

Okay, so I'm curious; what are some of the rarest miniatures for wargames (or RPGs) out there?

This is sparked by a search for Dead Space-like minis that resulted in this OOP Kabuki Miniatures mini, the victim of a swift C&D most likely. I know there's event exclusive miniatures from half a dozen games, OOP stuff from the odd third-party, older mini sculpts, and old minis cut from both production and game... But I'm curious as to what the rest of /tg/ has in the vein of esoteric knowledge of forbidden miniatures.

Hey /tg/, you guys might remember me. I'm the guy who had The Shallow Sea in his setting, a large body of water that divides two continents that Is several hundred miles tall and about 100 miles wide, but only cones up to a man's ankles.

Last time we discussed traversing the shallow sea and how people would even take an army across it and the weather patterns that would be present in such an area.

This time I come to discuss creturns that would live in the sea. I was thinking, would the shallow sea be like deserts and have ant lions except with water? Does such an animal exist? Jesus christ how terrifying. What other crazy shit would go on out there?

Also, would pic related be able to cross the sea? Is the water deep enough to accommodate such a vessel?

So, we have a pretty good idea of what 40k is like for the orphans of the Imperiums warmachine: enrolled in the schola, constant training, paranoia, and eventual graduation into the Commisariat, Storm troopers, SoB, administratum, etc.

Meanwhile, we also know stuff like Orks/Tyranids not having kids. What I want to know is this: What of the kids of famous worlds like Krieg and Catachan? Or the Eldar children of the Craftworlds and The Dark City? The Tau castes? Or even the pits of Krieg and Daemon worlds?

Anyone else keep lists of ideas for future characters?

>Tired old skelly Paladin, devoted to crusading for the deity who granted him his power. However, the deity has been long forgotten by the people and he is the last worshipper, trying to stop his deity from being forgotten altogether.
>Farmer who left home and became a hermit monk after contracting lycanthropy. Looking for cure. Sends a letter back to his wife and daughter every few weeks.
>Apathetic warlock who is undying as part of their pact, has been around for ages and is long bored of this world.
>There's always a paladin whose parents were killed by orcs, what about an orc whose parents were killed by paladins?

Hey /tg/, I'm working on a campaign and was wondering if you might be willing to help me brainstorm.

I'm building a world based strongly in the Gods Need Prayer Badly/Clap Your Hands If You Believe/Tulpa tropes. Basically, there are a bunch of gods over various things, ranging from the general (eg: God of Death, God of the South Sea), to the very specific, mundane, or just plain goofy (eg: God of Death by Impalement, God of Monday Mornings).

The world has been previously ruined by holy wars as the gods pitted believers against each other in an attempt to convert more people, since more believers == more power and standing in this ridiculous pantheon. So, much of the map is wasteland, desolate, or ruins returning to nature. Desert, various plains, jungle, tundra, etc.

What I need is gods. Lots of gods. Just ideas for what they're gods of would be helpful, but clever names are great. I've come up with a few, mostly centered around a desert theme since that's where the players have started.

Ach'to-oh - Goddess of the particular oasis the players started at
C'rara Loft - terribly named God of Tomb Raiding
Dewmb - Hypochondriac god
Hekz K'chin - God of poorly prepared food
unnamed God of Frontier Living
unnamed Goddess of Trade Caravans
unnamed God of the Beach
unnamed God of Fishing
unnamed Goddess of Dried Foods
unnamed Goddess of Tomb Raiding
unnamed God of Mummification
unnamed God of Sunburn Relief
unnamed Goddess of Shade
unnamed God of the Volcano (Dragonclaw Isle)
unnamed God of Flowing Lava (partner/twin to volcano god)
unnamed Goddess of the Lake (northeast on map)
unnamed Goddess of Natural Reclamation
unnamed God of Snowcapped Mountains

Attached is a rough map of the world, with most currently planned locations labeled. Any suggestions for more gods, for general or specific ideals, and for serious or goofy purposes, are welcome.

Alternatively, let me know if I need to bugger off to the WBG or /wsr/ for requesting.
