Watching the new star wars movies made me want to run a SW game. What are you guy's favorites?
>>44378368
Imperial Assault was fun, but we don't play it much anymore.
>inb4 the thread gets covered in X-wing player spunk
>>44378368
i'll be bloody honest....see below
>>44379263
you. i like you. but what i'm about to say might piss you off.
here's my Favorites:
--West End RPG. it was off center, but in those days, it was what we had...and, we made LEGENDS with that shit.
--the Decipher round1 card game...the one where each card was a force point.
--X-Wing, but i have to say, you gotta fix obstacles rules, and only play with Big Ships if on a 8x6 table or something with 12' deep deploy zones...
--D20 star wars needed mods, we modded it a lot
--the WotC plastic mini's game was evil...fuck, was it evil.... at least it had the only Basilisk War-Droid Models in the universe.
--i haven't played a lot of the new shit, post 2010-ish.
there has never been a perfect Star Wars game.
Can someone that has knowledge of 40k universe explain to me why in the year 40 000 where some can use teleportation devices, some use feathers and books?

Because it's stylish.
>>44424190
Because mankind is no longer master of its own destiny after surviving various apocalypses and forgetting how to do proper science.
Because technological regression, is a thing
One of you lore autists summarize this for me I'm too lazy to read it.

As the title says. I'll start. Last game had a dual wielding fellow in 3.5 who has no sneak attack, no ToB punishing stance, no insightful strike from Swashbuckler, not even Favored Enemy Ranger Damage. Flat 1d6+1 / 1d4 per swing. Party level 11. DW-Bro is falling behind. Make up a wonderful midnight blue cedar box that could be described as Starry Night painted on it. Inside are dual blades - cutlasses with fiery burst / icy burst. 1d6+fire, 1d6+ice per hit for those unfamiliar with 3.5/PF - oncrit, they do an additional 2d10 elemental damage of their specific element.
Big dumb 2h fighter finds the box. It seems to be magically locked. (Can't tell the PCs that key is like 5 minutes away in the same dungeon. Gotta keep my poker face.) Fighter goes, sunders the box with an adamantine heavy flail. Bits of wood and steel and elaborately-crafted handguard go everywhere.
Incredible 2WF bro realizes what's up and gives me this look like I just shot his dog. Shrug at him and narrate that, "The box is destroyed. There are shards of wood and metal everywhere."
Feels bad.
>>44411901
Poor wieldy: is he in a rivalry between fighter dude?
Also, did you properly roll to make sure the swords in question were actually destroyed? There's a roll for that, you know.
>>44411979
Treated it as an AC 5 static object. Fighterbro rolled and confirmed a crit on it with power attack. Dealt like 40 or 50 damage - some obscene number. Think that would break a steel cutlass.
I feel bad doing that to my players. they're always utterly convinced their idea is going to work out perfectly.
/tg/ I need pictures of giants, both male and female, doing generic things or just any other portrayal than as just a monster manual entry. Anything that portrays them doing people things
Are they big guys for me?

Meanwhile on fantasy /tg/
>GM makes homebrew setting
>It's generic no-magic firepunk
Why is firepunk the worst setting?
Anybody know how to best approach forest folks for a quick game? I've been traveling for a while and they really like games over here, but never heard of Hazards & Humans
>>44399087
Because there's more than fire when in comes to power in real life, such as water and wind mills. There's so much more you could do with the genre firepunk is boring.

On Halloween last year, I ran a special Call of Cthulhu game where it turned out the cultists were just having a Christmas party. So this Christmas I'll be running a Pathfinder game one-shot about a Crystalhue festival gone horribly wrong. Doing that on the weekend though, not today.I'm totally not sweating bullets over the fact that I've only got my preparations half done.

Malifaux general! Infiltrating your factions and abandoning our own edition.
Here are some useful links:
books;
https://mega.nz/#F!M9dyDTrI!eNYCwqvg4iPWy_z-M0P9dw
Book 1 - Basic Rules and first wave of updated (from 1st edition of malifaux) models
Book 2 - Second wave of updated models
Book 3 - Campaign system and new M2E models
Through the Breach Fated Almanac - Basic rules for the RPG set in Malifaux
Through the Breach Fatemaster Almanac - GM stuff for the RPG
Discussion topic: Who's your favourite beater? Who's your favourite scheme runner?
Just by faction:
Outcast beater-Rusty Alyce. Get her some good ground and she'll eat models, get her desolate soul and she'll pop aboms when she does it.
Outcast Scheme runner-void wretches. Cheap and fast, and can help in offensive bury lists.
Resser beater: for non master, bete noir, though she doesn't work in every list. 8 ss to eat minions on a flank, 10 to make masters cry.
Resser scheme runner: crooligans. They bring their own cover and get a free move when interacting. What's not to like?
Mei Feng Newbie here. I'm going to be getting my first game in sunday. I'll have Kaeris' box and Mei Feng's box to pick from, so obviously declaring Arcanist. Any hints and tips for a first game? Other than to get sleeves for the cards because holy shit they're slippery?
>Who's your favourite beater
Izamu. I just love that motherfucker so much.

They're cute, at least.

You don't need to thin your paint edition.
Seriously, always thin your paint on palette, you dont need much water, just wet your brush and start mixing.

WIP imperial fist, look better than his white scar brethren.
>>44374986
Neat I approve of this.
What company are you gonna do?
3rd and 5th look best imo.
Looks like you're airbrushing? White shouldn't be a big deal; start from gray, use white as your highlight.
