how do you guys feel about playing pickup games at a store/club against unpainted armies?

World of Fagness

So continuing from last thread, what are some good Cabal themes?

>>45272996
I like the idea of a Guardian-Arrow cabal with the intent of cleaning up the messes other supernaturals cause; the Arrows deal with the perps and the Guardians the scene and witnesses.

The core idea of the game is generally sound, I think.

One of the biggest hurdles of getting people into a wargame is always that moment where they go "I want to play this and this and this" and you have to explain to them that such and such models don't work together, such and such models can only be taken so many times, etc, etc, etc.

The "bring anything you got" idea has merit. It means balance is shot to hell, more or less, so you'd really just focus on making sure certain things weren't too insane.

What would be more important, I think, is having a solid game in the rules, something that's interesting and fun. This is where AoS has failed, more than anything else: people will forgive a hell of a lot so long as the game has good, fun rules.

So the answer is just to revamp the entire combat system so that it's actually interesting and fun to play, and you've pretty much solved 90% of AoS's problems.

I thought sanguinary guard had jump packs.

>>45272644
It doesn't need to be fixed because it isn't broken. If you think it needs to be fixed, it just isn't the game for you.

WHFB is not coming back, it is dead. This game is here to stay, no matter how much of weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth it incites from the old guard.

Try AD&D 2nd Edition.

>>45271110
5th Edition, it's sort of similar but they took care to address a lot of the problems you run into at higher levels. I think it's easier to learn too, personally. But PF is a valid choice if you're going for a more bombastic setting, since the magic gets a lot crazier.

A lot of people are going to tell you not to play either, and to play the system they like instead, because /tg/ is full of vampires. Take their advise as you will

5E is more freeform and less crunchy combat sim. Either will work but I would go with 5E.

>>45271064
>What is /tg/'s opinion about this? How do you prefer your Cultists of the Blood-God?
>Insane Murderers that just kill to keep the blood flowing? Or Warriors that only seek a good fight with a skilled opponent?
>Can you imagine a Chaos-Warrior that spares a unarmed civilian, or even a wounded enemy?

Yes.

also, lets post chaos related artworks.

>>45271100
I see what you did there.

>>45271064
Honorable warrior god Khorne is more interesting than being just a generic murder deity. Plus it makes more sense with the hatred towards sorcery. If Khorne cares not where the blood flows, why get concerned over what methods are used? It's a piece of fluff that only really makes sense if we're going with the interpretation of Khorne valuing honor.

You hadn't really realized it, but Irue Valen's memories weren't actually your memories. You had, of course, known the difference between the two of them on an intellectual level, but they had been there for you to access ever since your 'birth'. After your near death experience with the Wisp Adept, those ever present memories only seemed to return a dull mental equivalent to white noise whenever you attempted to look into them. It was... Unsettling. Perhaps more so because of your experiences in the web earlier.

At first you had simply believed that the difficulty in recognizing people had been a side-effect of the web, something you would simply need to get used to as you toyed with the strange capabilities granted to you by the Ice Queen's Atelier, but that notion was painfully dispelled when you had attempted to withdraw yourself from the threads and realized that the 'web' had never been yours in the first place.

The web extending your senses through its threads, and it did so impressively... But if the web wasn't yours, then it wasn't your senses it was expanding. That black haze which had nearly made Kara indistinguishable from the people attempting to kill you was no fault of the web, but of the capacity of the web's owner.

In other words, you had unexpectedly just been given a chilling view of the world through your shadow's own 'eyes'.

Perhaps more worryingly, your attempts to rouse that unwanted voice from the back your mind had been met with that same fuzzy sense of white noise as trying to look through your shadow's memories. As an apparition of Shade, you knew intimately that being put into contact with Wisp Mana wasn't dissimilar to mutually erasing each other - It was a large part of why you had nearly died - But your shadow was... Even if it looked like the real apparition between the two of you, it was the real Irue Valen.

There was too much concerning the state of your shadow that you didn't understand.

Maybe Mim would know. Knowing things was literally the job of a Luna Adept.
Maybe Marchovic would know... Though you aren't sure if you really wanted to ask him.
Maybe...

Too many maybes. As it stood, you'd have to hope your shadow would be fine for a few more days. At least until you finished dealing with retrieving your Testament.

>Your shadow is no longer responsive.
>Releasing Irue as a berserker is no longer possible.
>Accessing Irue's memories is no longer possible.
>As a result of exposure to Wisp Mana, meditating has become more difficult.


You sigh, trying to decide what to do. The hideout that Asche and Jill were being held was evidently hidden away in a nearby graveyard.

>Go straight there, you'll blitz it with Kara and make Priat actually do work.
>You're outside Carona, may as well recruit your knights to this venture.
>Maybe bringing all of your knights isn't a good idea, but you could probably benefit from having Ari and the wood golem come.
>Too many knights will just make a mess, and Ari isn't necessarily cooperative. Dullem alone would be a strong addition to your squad.

>Art isn't that cute anime squid girl
All that missed potential though

Is this just going to be a weekly question from now on?

>>45269651
implying eastern culture would ever reach the stars on its own.

Having lived in Commieland (and ex-Commieland) for a good portion of my life and now living in Canada, I will tell you this: not much different. Travel enough, and you eventually realize that "culture" is not a big deal.

By the time you finally arrived on site at the Ninth Division barracks, people were already milling about in anticipation of the exercises. You spy Kenpachi prowling around with a bunch of bandages poking out from under his uniform, looking a bit more disheveled than usual. His pint-sized Lieutenant looks out on the crowd with a bored expression from his shoulders. Other Divisions have sent their Lieutenants. Notably you spy Tetsuzaemon in the crowd giving you a curt nod of acknowledgment, Lieutenants Kotetsu and Omaeda speaking quietly with Kira away from any of the other groups, and Lieutenant Hinamori speaking with Captain Hitsugaya closer to the range.

No doubt they've come to see what these “arrancar” are capable of, and will be reporting to their respective Divisions upon their return. Which is fine, that's part of the reasoning behind showing off their capabilities like this in the first place. It may however be a good idea to ensure that the highest ranking officers have a chance to speak with the arrancar, to give them all a better sense of each others' personalities.

Starrk seems as bored as Lieutenant Kusajishi, and though it seemed impossible Lilynette seems even more bored than that. Halibel and Apacci seem at least vaguely interested in their visitors, though you can tell Apacci in particular is also a bit uncomfortable. She may well feel a little more like an animal in a zoo rather than a partner or ally.

>>Additional Notes
I'm a mahou shoujo fan, and I always wanted to be a part of a mahou shoujo game, especially after reading some of the tales that some Anons are a part of, such as this oldie: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/14435926/ (I know there were some recent ones but I can't find them in the archives...)

I'm aiming to make it a long-term game, but first I need to find some committed players, so after a few one-shots using FATE Accelerated, I'll upgrade the system to full blown FATE.

As for the theme of the game, expect the tropes that is usually found in the genre. This isn't an ERP, so I'm keeping it clean. We're not going to push the typical shoujo boundary and go into shoujo ai territory and well past it.

If you're interested, look me up at roll20 and PM. I'll get in touch with you soon.

I was interested up until the point you said there will be no shoujo ai :( You monster.
