Yes
Oh lord yes

Pros:
Obtain proof that robots can actually love.

Inevitable death by robot.

This is a thing? How does it distinguish itself from regular rpg's? Are they made in Japan? Do you play them in Japanese? Is the art exclusively mange?

>>44748658
Yes, no, pretty much yes.

No joking here. Do people really believe that we'll see Awakening 2e in February?

>>44748072
Do I think it WILL happen? Not really.

Do I think that it's possible that it might happen? Sure. It's very nearly done. All that's required for an early-February release is the remaining steps going smoothly.

Are we on this again?

Apparently, layout is waiting on the approved text. How long approval takes is unpredictable as we don't have a lot of data points for White Wolf approvals yet and it depends entirely on what's in the book, but unless they find something really objectionable and throw it back in DaveB's face it shouldn't take too long.

Layout consists of the layouter making a proof, sending it to DaveB to look through, and repeating it until both think it's good. How long this takes is tough to predict - Werewolf seemed to take a bit under a month, going by Monday Meeting posts? Maybe?

After the book is done, it gets sent to dtrpg, where it takes a while for it to be put up. I think a week or two is usual?

Advance pdf in January is a pipe dream. February is optimistic. GenCon or later release meme is just as unrealistic as those two.

Left.

>>44747149
Hey, I own the set on the left. Chessex Water Elemental, if I'm not mistaken. The very first set of dice I bought when I started playing D&D back in '95.

I do prefer the numbers on the top.

>>44747149
Not when you've already placed caltrops, fiend.

R/g tron is easiest to pilot (wish I had known that before I built it). Although affinity is also pretteh brain dead

And probably amulet bloom, only because I have never played it. Although lantern control can be hard to do right.

The problem with this question is that modern is a fairly easy format to pilot in general. You don't have the legacy card pool and interactivity, and because these are tier 1 and 2 decks, they are already optimized and stripped of spare parts. The decks that work best tend to be simple in their nature.

>>44746594
There's already one other thread. Look for Karn in the catalog

>>44746594
Easiest: Probably Burn. Linear, only 1 tough rules interaction (using skullcrack to bypass protection) and very redundant/consistent.

Hardest: Esper Control. Modern is very diverse and has much more powerful threats than answers, so navigating any matchup with Esper requires you to know your deck and your opponents deck inside out. You always have to play to your outs and get the most from each spell you cast. Although you have many favorable match ups, none of them are really "byes" in the sense you would probably win even if you misplayed heavily.

Irrelevant.

Fallout tech has nothing relevant to space warfare.

There is nothing land-based that could ever have made a difference in the war. Humanity started losing the minute the Heirarchs declared war and nothing short of magical universe-spanning antics could have saved them.

>>44745433
That and one lucky super-soldier.

>>44745414
Read the Fall of Reach. Nyland did a great job of spelling out how the UNSC was utterly fucked by the Covenant.

>>44742984
Mantis Brawler. It's basically Rokugani Drunken Fist.

Shosuro Actors are pretty wacky. And also really hard to actually integrate into a game.

>>44743411

know what I did?

Introduce a Shosuro actor as a completely different character. They were revealed by their incompetent lord and while the party doesn't TRUST her she wound up going along with them anyway.

>>44742751
As much as I know of spell blades, they are used for memorizing spells in my DM's system, and his DM before him. Any spell using class can store spells in the blade and use them on command instead of memorizing and praying to their God for spells. Once my Dad (DM) set off all of the spells he had in his intelligent sword at like 7th level magic user and blew up a whole underground city. Can be pretty useful and power as an intelligent weapon.

>>44742751
Fighter/Mages in 2E DND were pretty good

AD&D 2nd. Elf fighter/mages were pretty top-tier. The level cap was a bit of a drag, and the requirement to be a demihuman, likewise, however. I think you could do it in AD&D first as well, but the level cap was substantially lower if memory serves.

>>44742603
It's like acting or collaborative storytelling wherein we play there wizard, hobbits, Archer elf guy and dwarf from LotR and our friend Mark is the world we interact with and plays all the people we talk to and the orcs we kill.

Like a video game but with friends and fast more freedom in what we do and what it's about.

I've told my girlfriend several times I've run/played in RPGs and all she's done is say it sounds fun. I have no interest in someone who won't at the least accept the fact I like my hobbies.

That said, it's probably wise to table conversations about Elves and shit when on a first date with someone.

>>44742603
I just tell her I'm going to hang out with my friends. I don't ask her what she does with hers.

Depends on the Crusade.

What does Crusader fantasy even mean?

I think it would be pretty cool if the 'good guy' crusaders are actually legit good guys, not just not!christians fighting not!mudslimes.

Make it actual demon worshipers instead of beige to the white of the first religion and we've got something here.

>>44742376
12/10 would play in a game of badass holy warriors murdering the shit out of demons while redeeming and saving those who could be.

>>44741834
have you looked online?

>>44741834
I'm lucky enough to live in an area with a wide variety of gamers to form groups with. From the bottom of my heart I am sorry Anon.

>>44741834
Is it at least TSR D&D or 4E?

Please not 3.PF

Cool, you added the new scanned pdf. Thanks.

Second for Corax

A question for any Iron Warriors players here:

Why did you pick them? Is it their aesthetic? Their stats & RoW? Dantioch? Kyr Vhalen? Perturabo? What made you choose them?

I'm a Sons of Horus player

>Is there any chapter that could take the DA on in a proper 1v1 chapter battle
Currently - any vanilla with the access to Skyhammer Annihilation Force. And before those it were any vanilla marines with decent air and gravguns, since we had neither. We are somewhat below vanilla codex power-wise, brother. Gotta Grim Resolve through it.

Lore/Book-wise Ultras have few dozen more layers of plot armor.

>>44740994
Space Wolves and Black Templars outnumber DA 10:1 due to non-codex organisation. If they go 1v1, it will be a very short battle.

>>44743376
>Space Wolves

Are 2000 men strong whereas the unforgiven are at least 10,000

>Black Templars

Unknown numbers.

Not a romantic one, I've never tried to hide the my hobbies and interests.

A few games have led to no more contact with some people.

So it depends on how you are using relationship.

>>44739944
Please take me back. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you when your character died. Don't do this.

No, I refuse to hang out with people that petty.

You can usually spot one a mile away

>Additional Information
Nothing too serious, got a hankering to run 4e, want to get something together. Already have one person. I can provide books, and am more than happy to help newcomers. I'm pretty flexible as a DM, though expect a decent bit of cheesiness, and a smattering of weebshit.

>>44739464
On the off chance that this isn't bait, or yet another troll, i sent you an invite.
Also bump for good measure.
