Hoi chummers. Some drawfag was kind enough to draw my Ork Decker today. Show me your runners!

So my weekly group has finally burned out on Pathfinder, and I'm trying to sell them on doing Shadowrun instead. What's your best elevator pitch for it?

If war never changed, than her imitations surely did not as well. During the ovation you received for coming upon the grandstand this fine morning to the herald's call you look over the sea of colors and gleaming metal. Walls of men stood across from one another, some quiet, others playing to the crowd in boisterous shows, others rallying the field to their side, forming the bonds of war brothers in a quick moments before all hell would break loose. Spying across the field you see Ser Lucas Longwaters, his armor plain, a surcoat of seafoam and red being his only adornments besides the ribbons of crimson and grey that were surely favors from his newly married wife. Surrounding him are others of your Household, Ser Wesley Hayford in splendid armor a surcoat of the menagerie of green yellow covering it, Ser Duncan Ureye to his left in nothing more than the armor of a Hedge Knight, beaten and worn. You note the three talking strategy, clearly intending to go to the team rounds together.

Upon the second day of your melee you were joined by both your Uncles, Ser Dontos Malroy and Lord Winston Hayford. Samuel was noticeably absent from his father’s side but you paid it no mind. Dontos had allowed your son Victus to attend him in the grandstand today, and with him your quiet squire as well, Arron Qorgyle. The boy was so quiet at times you often forgot he was even there, he attended his duties with practiced hands, but so rarely spoke that it felt like you were doing nothing at all for the boy. Even your own son had difficulty in getting him to crack, they would practice together in the yard but he was a focused sort, the whimsy and wonder of a new home being lost upon him. A far cry from his family to be sure. As of yet you were unsure of how to quiet combat this. Regardless, beyond your family was Ser Mason Flowers, as always, and Illiad, as not so always of late. He had been helped up into the grandstand by Mason and a crutch, but he was getting better on it.

Your attention turns to the herald when a trumpet again calls for quiet, he begins to announce the list, no small feat as it contained near 300 names throughout the realm. The Crownlands, the Vale, Westerlands, Riverlands, The Reach, and Stormlands all had representatives, from second sons and cousins to hedge knights, both young and old. The last grasps of glory for the some, while others their first taste. Your ear catches upon another three. Ser Titus Sarsfield, Ser Lyonel Hill, and Ser Robb Brax. The Westerlands envoy, all competing, you search out the field and note them closer to the grandstand, together as your own household was. It shocked you to see Brax on his feet again, not only that but willing to compete not a day removed from the Squire’s Melee. An open field of near 80 was nothing to the open field round of 300, all with men trained far better than he, aware of his name, and all vying for the last 100 standing to move onto the team rounds. He was a brave one you gave him that. Noting again you see the Point Knights, Ser Aden Brune and Ser Quinton Crabb, and your eyes cast about the stands to see their respective Lords watching intently, speaking to one another far out of your earshot.

Just as you were about to grow bored of the herald’s seeming unending lungs he finishes his list, with a grand flourish, bowing your way and you wave him off. He returns the gesture, and runs off the field to where a large flag of your colors stands. The crowd quiets to a murmur, the Knights suddenly posture themselves for a charge, the clank of steel echoing across the yard. You stand, taking the few steps it did to reach the balcony, eyes turn to you from the crowd, eyes turn to the flag upon the field. You had no speech prepared, no words, simply a command, your arm rises and with a deep breath, drops. The flag follows. And all hell breaks loose.

The crowd roaring into life again, low and high alike. The clangs of steel upon the ground grew into such castrophany so immense you dare to think it could be heard in King’s Landing. Though it was nothing compared to the deafen clashing of the walls of Knights. Some go down easy, quickly. Others push through the mass ending up on the other side of the melee, only to gather themselves and end up right back in the mix. Your eyes fleet about the field, watching the individual fights that soon turn to brawls. You can taste iron upon the air, it was a fight to first blood, but someone had lost more than the first, you see the poor soul sprawled across the yard, a jet of blood occasionally springing from his gorget. A sad sight, but not one that was so uncommon as to ruin the day.

“Ser Dontos?”

“Yes squire.”

“Who is the man with the teal and bronze?”

You turn back and look at Dontos struggling to see the man that your son is pointing out, you had been watching him as well, an unknown hedge knight supposedly from the Stormlands if Wesley’s lists were any indication. Likely your own age, but he fought with a berserker’s rage, his greatsword lashing into anyone that dare come near in the melee. He fought with hammer blows driving his opponents into the dirt before moving on.

“H-his name is Ser Ambrose Oatwright,” comes a meek voice from the lad next to Victus that you realize quickly is Arron, “He was a Knight for a House that died during the Rebellion.”

>You can only play one of your commander decks for the rest of your days. Who do you play, and why is it your favorite?
One commander or one deck? If commander, Cromat, since he's a solid creature and the deck could be anything. Currently I'm playing him as voltron.
If deck, Memnarch. Artifacts and theft are fun, what more can I say?

>If the "banned as general" list came back, who would you throw in there?
Derevi.

I always enjoyed sci-fi and fantasy when I was younger. I accidentally bought a Warcraft DnD supplement thinking it was a novel, and got introduced into the hobby through that. Some friends found the DnD starter kit I had in my closet a few years later and we all tried it out and had fun.

AFTER HOW MANY YEARS

OH SHIT

You've been on this ship for as long as you remember.

You were born on it, and for months had only your father to keep you company. That's a small comfort you no longer enjoy. He was quite old when you were born, and passed away before long. Since then, you've been all alone.

Waking from another night of slumber, you sit up in your room, looking around and finding everything exactly how it's been for the past year.

You honestly aren't sure why you get out of bed these days. The daily routine never changes. You get up, you check to see if you've reached your destination, you pace around, drift into daydreams, try to meditate or something, then go back to sleep.

Maybe you should just skip to the final step.

>A. Go back to sleep

>B. Check the computer to see if anything's changed

“Up there, on the left,” she tuts, her brow knotting into a look of annoyance you haven't seen often from here these past few days, in spite of her occasional bout of complaining.

You follow her nod to a craggy outcropping some distance away, spotting a hunched figure, its oily, mottled skin of grey and black well hidden in the shadows of the mountain. It's about the size of a man, and while it's hard to make out any finer details from that distance, the creature's bulbous, pitch-black eyes still seem to catch yours, sending a shudder down your spine as it crouches unmoving on the mountainside.

“Makoor's pets. Creepy as ever,” Snowfox sighs, raising a hand high overhead to give the silent watcher an insulting gesture, the creature remaining still as a statue as you press on.

“What are they?”

“Some nasty magical goatshit. Beyond that, I couldn't tell you. Word of warning, they may be allies, but they sure don't mind picking off the odd straggler if they get the chance, so no going for long lonely walks, hmm?” Snowfox smiles, shrugging, though there's a lot less humor behind the smile now than there was on the journey thus far.

Challenge: Justify why there would be traitor legionaries in each of the loyalist legions.

>>45066475
Because most of loyalist legions have excellent relationship with Horus.

Other than that, they are soldiers.
Like in ancient Rome, legionaries trust their warmasters more than a distant icon that stay away from war.

>>45066475
Because the marines in 30k are far less indoctrinated than their 40k counterparts and have a much broader set of values. Not all of them value Imperium, Primarch, Legion, in that order. Some may value the lives of their squad mates or the marines under their command over any of that, some may feel their primarchs are taking their legion in the wrong direction. Then there are plenty of other values to consider. Are their relations with Mechanicum or rogue Trader forces that could sway them? Do they value their personal skill at arms or their professional calling as a soldier, warrior, knight, apothecary, or techmarine over what some distant Imperium or primarch wants? Have they maintained some minor aspect of religion from their homeworld that they carry with them into being an astartes? Not all of these apply to all marines in all legions, but they could certainly apply to many.

I'll rape grixis any day

I hope so. I switched to Scapeshift after Twin was banned and I have a bunch of Grixis cards to load off.

/tg/ what does modern need to make control viable?

Depends on the other 2 artifacts, what they do when they go to the bin and board. and is it worth doing that? Its also a sorcery so thats going to be another thing. You really need a worthwhile effect.

>>45065381
you could start by cycling ichor wellsprings to find whatever else your deck will be doing

>>45065400
add thirst for knowledge with sundering titan, mindslaver, and treasure mage to tutor them up. wurmcoil is an obvious inclusion too

The most expensive card I even had anything drawn on is a pack rat. I traded my pack rat to a guy at the show who is pretty cool and told him he HAD to sign it. I have done this with a zendikar forest, a boomarang, rugged highlands, and a ravens crime.

So I can understand having signatures or art on your cards, but not anything that is valuable, and if its art and not a signature it better be good and not something awful like that.

Maybe some people don't see MtG cards as an "investment".
