Tricking them into assassating themselves.

Here is your reply

I dunno, but the best way to kill your own thread is to post Cestree as the OP image.

The 'bastard sword' as you call it has most in common with the German Longsword. What D&D calls a 'longsword' is more akin to an arming sword. Anyways to answer your question a 'bastard sword' would be used best as a two handed weapon to give you the most striking power and more importantly the most control and leverage of the blade.

>>44058758
I don't understand the question.

You can fight with it either way.

You can fight with a sword that isn't exceptionally large with two hands.

Swords.

Go watch videos about swords.

Be smacked in the face with knowledge.

You're welcome, OP.

>Talk with Saber
We haven't had the chance to get his opinion on what's been happening yet, nor do we know what he intend to do if we somehow end up winning.

And we also ought to figure out what he can and can't do in a fight, so we don't go rushing headfirst into losing battles.

>>44059839
Talking with Rin doesn't mean starting a fight, but I will respect your will

"Saber, I need your support with strategic planning. I think it's time to face Emi and her Servant, there's no way to negotiate with them to begin with."

"I don't disagree with this strategy. It's less suicidal than taking on Berserker and Lancer at the same time. However we don't know what aces Emi has up her sleeves. Heh, funny, as she usually wears short-sleeved shirts".

"But this kind of reasoning doesn't bring us any further. If we can't plan on what they have, we must plan on what we do have."

"Correct. As you know, I am endowed with a very high magical resistance. This will come in handy when we fight Emi's Servant and its Noble Phantasms"

"What is a Noble Phantasm, Saber?"

"A noble Phantasm is the embodiment of the legend and of the mystery of every hero. Their fuel is human imagination itself, and every item or every characteristic that belongs to the myth of a given hero can potentially be a Noble Phantasm"

"So what is your Noble Phantasm?"

"First of all, you should remember that an Heroic Spirit can possess more than one Noble Phantasm. I am not sure, however I think my blade's name is Ananke: the unescapable Necessity. I know for sure that my sword can cut through any defense. The rest we'll have to find out. But I am a Saber class Servant: there's little that can take me completely by surprise", he says, raising his thumb.

There's roughly 15 minutes before the beginning of the class. Maybe they can be put to good use.

>Try to spy on Emi
>Go to class

>>44060060
>Go to class
>Talk with Saber a little more while we have time
What does he think of the other Masters and Servants? What's his goal in this war? Is there anything that we should know he won't or can't do?

>Google for Ananke
>Google for historical figures famous for possessing swords and warhorns

There is a reason for Power Swords et cetera. It's cause they cleave everything like butter.

>>44058317
Machines guns haven't been invented?

>>44058317
You probably need something that at least partially negates the massive advantage of ranged weapons.

I wouldn't kick them out, but I would take them aside and ask if they genuinely wanted to play.

No, but I'd challenge them. How long can they remain a bystander? How long can they stay neutral? I'd separate them from the group and put them through all sorts of tests.

>>44058247
Eventually, yes. But I'd have a conversation with them first about why they're not playing the game they claim to want to play.

epic greenmeme, dudee! i kek'd heartily

Rolled sense motive so badly I started suspecting a rival but well-meaning group of adventurers in wanting to destroy a pacifist monastery for no reason. Ended up derailing several sessions in minor ways by convincing the party of my suspicions and making them antagonize the rivals and repeatedly cock block them until the miscommunication was settled, though we needed their help to advance.

That said "you rolled so bad you accidentally tore a hole in reality lmao xD" is pretty fucking retarded. It is rarely funny even as a joke, and if the GM attempts to pull that in the game you should pelt him with d4's until he backpedals.

I think I legitimately hate these topics more than frogposts now. Is there a way to filter topics based on their image?

>>44057658
You could probably just filter 'That Guy/That DM'. That'd get rid of a good amount of them.

Exiled hard.

Reminds me of a silly idea I had where males that showed themselves worthy of higher status were given a potion to promote them to female

All too well. Some days I can be content just designing for myself, but it creeps up on you.

>yfw the more you add the harder it is to balance
>>44057270
I worded myself incorrectly, the problem isn't that's too hard, but that it seems totally unbalanced or maybe won't even work.

Do you know of any program that let you mess around with pieces properties and hexagonal grid placement? I can't program for shit.

it has working gun batteries but instead of space weaponry it's just 4 groups of 5,000 lasguns firing simultaneously

Am I correct in my understanding that a Winged-Variant Tiefling is still able to fly while using Medium or Heavy Armor the way that an Aarakocra would?

>>44056608
continuing from this

>>44056956

I thought tieflings/aarocrocka's couldn't fly in heavy armour? Or has that been changed?

It's also a method of playing which is sure to make the DM and the players hate you ^^

I remember thinking it was dull as hell, even as a kid. Wasn't it basically just MtG without tapping lands?

Man, all my nostalgia comes from the cards rather than actually playing. When I was a kid everyone in my school had all the damn cards- Pokemon, YuGiOh, Digimon and eventually Harry Potter (Hell at the height of the cardgame obsession, my grandmother bought me a box of Mythos trading cards cause they were cheap, just what a growing boy needs?), but we never actually played the games, just collected them.

>>44056673
Can't pink horrors spawn more pink horrors?

>>44056709
Can`t say... Only have the CSM Codex.
Also saw a lot of people playing Kairos Fateweaver and four other Tzeentch Lords ( dont know the model name)

>>44056673

Summoning is a thing and when you have basic troops that summon more units (Bloodthirsters, Flesh hounds, Heralds etc) it's a very effective way of replacing models that have died. This is also made worse by the fact that most of the other troops are mediocre at best, pink horrors are just a good choice in any daemon army. As far as tzeentch goes, it's basically a couple of things, one of those is the ability to "re-roll saving throws of 1" which makes 2++ or 3++ re-rollable deathstars not that hard to make. The second important part about tzeentch is that with a tzeentch daemon army you can pretty much dominate the psychic phase completely. There aren't many armies that can stand up to daemons in the psychic phase. Hopefully this helps.

Standing before you, a scant few paces away, is one of the most hideous demons you've ever seen. Its face is pulled into a horrible grin, glistening teeth visible and glinting in the sparse light. Tall, with a loathsome kind of oiliness to it, its chest is dominated by the image of a heart, several iron stakes plunged violently into it. You've seen this before – once, for a brief moment – and you know what it is. This is the demon Amelia sent to do her dirty work, in those blissful days when it obeyed her orders. Now, it's free to do whatever the hell it feels like.

And so it vanishes, disappearing into thin air before your very eyes.

Of course, you realise a moment later, Amelia's “rule” prevented it from harming you directly. One small piece of comfort, shortly followed by a crushing fear as you pat yourself down and learn that your equipment – your phone, Midnight and even that black mask Scathach created – is all gone, taken from you. You are totally defenceless.

No, not totally. A few paces from where that terrible demon had been standing is a wall, a tarnished metal knife buried in the crumbling stone. A note is pinned there as well, flapping lightly in the breeze that runs through the tunnels. Limping over – nothing inside you seems to be broken, at least – you take a look at the note. The words are... burned onto the paper, not written. They read, quite simply, “Keep me amused”. At the very bottom is an arrow, pointing left down the next branching path. Helpful directions, or guiding you straight into a trap?

As you scowl at the note, a sound reaches your ears. The howling of ghouls, you realise, and it's getting closer with each passing second. You need to make a move – and quickly.

>Follow the arrow left
>Take the right path
>Take a moment to check your surroundings carefully
>Other

>Try to calm down and listen.
We're looking for any of two things: Petra's(or any human's) breathing, or wind. Allies, or a way out.

If it ends up being LOL, WIND DEMON....oh well, new recruit.

>>44056721
and if there's no wind, follow the arrow left
