Slice of life high school Horus Heresy.

HBO style Horus Heresy mega series.

From the Unification Wars to The Battle for Terra and everything in between.

Space Piracy adventure staring a Rogue Trader and his merry band of exotic waifus.

Haven't seen an english pdf yet. Difficult to talk about it any further than "I think this is neat and want to get my hands on an english copy".

>>43711590
Well I'm glad you contributed to the thread.

If its going to keep getting shilled this hard, you're going to have to accept that it will get pirated.

Vorpal rocks.

I really don't

also FUCK the fucking thread posted even though I aborted. The title is missing again, oh well.

First post incoming.

Shikadai vs O.

The names overhead come to a stop, and you hear a weak groan echo in the room nearby. Inojin laughs while Chocho steps forward, next to Shikadai. "C'mon, get your head in the game! Go down there and kick his ass! You're the son of the smartest shinobi in the whole village, that's something no one can deny!"

Shikadai groans and starts to walk down the stairs. "Yeah yeah, I get it. Let's see how this thing goes, I guess.."

Across the balcony, you can see his opponent moving. The Grass village headband displayed proudly on his forehead, it's an older male of about fifteen or sixteen. He has medium length hair, blonde and swept back. It also looks as if he's starting to grow a slight mustache, looking more like whiskers above his lip. His eyes hold an air of intelligence. O takes a few steps forward and leaps down, his long brown coat fluttering to the sides. Underneath you can see that he's wearing a tan flak jacket.

Shikadai walks down and stands across from him. You note that Shikamaru doesn't seem to make notice of his son, preferring to remain professional and impartial.

O scratches his chin, tilting his head up slightly and smiling. "I don't have any information on you. I'll have to make this up as I go along, it seems. I hope you've got something tricky for me to figure out, or this isn't going to last long at all."

Shikadai grins. "Funny, I was just going to say the same thing to you."

Shikamaru throws his hand down. "Begin!"

You go back to the core of Lovecraft.
You see the shadows of Eldritch shit
You gain wisdom from seeing it.
But it also slowly drains you insane.

Bloodborne would be a pretty good game is Insight scaled to 99, instead of 30-40(and barely that)

>>43710066
But HOW?

Not OP, but what wisdom should they learn? The idea of other worlds and strange elder gods is old hat now. What knowledge is maddening?

>>43710165
Modern humans already go insane over the horizon of doom.
It doesn't take a lot.

As a GM, my players have historically tortured/maimed them for info, then left them for dead. Recently though, one of my players has decided that murdering prisoners is in fact evil and is trying to reign the group in.

We tend not to have survivors.

>>43710020
If I'm DMing a game and I want an evil character I'd have them mind controlled and sent out to attack the kingdom, making them look nasty and giving them a nice bit of room to get free and take a break from the main story or come straight back for revenge.

If I'm playing an evil character I find out what I want then kill them. I don't bother with torture since firstly I hate roleplaying that shit and secondly torture is obsolete in most systems.

If I'm good I kill them after a proper trial. Good doesn't mean letting obviously hugely powerful murderers go because you're queasy about killing all of a sudden.

"Shun!" You shout out into the jungle. Your voice doesn't travel far in the thick foilage, and with the day starting to reach its end, your vision ian't terribly useful either. Still, you persist.

"Shuun!" You call out.

"She's not here." You hear Saito mutter behind you, searching just as you are. About an hour ago, Saito was just obsessed with you as Yui and Hiroko are now. Thanks to Shun distracting them, you managed to alleviate her heart and restore her to normal. But now the girls have nabbed Shun and you doubt they have anything good planned.

"Makoto, this isn't working." Aoi says, brushing leaves out of her face. As much as she wanted to return to her normal gender, in the bikini she's sporting right now, it probably wouldn't have been the best idea.

"Do you have a better idea?" You ask, leering back. She shies away from your stare.

"I guess not... Shuuun!" Aoi shouts, echoing you. You can tell he wants to head back and recuperate, but since this whole thing was kind of his fault, he's certainly in no rush to ask for that. Still, you're starting to feel the fatigue as well. They must have transformed back at least, or knocked her out - you can't sense any of the three girls.

Suddenly, Saito pauses and feels around in her jacket.

"Uh, hello?" She asks. "...Oh, Umeki? You're fixed too?" She comments, holding her phone. You stop and look back at Aoi. She turns to you and hands you the phone. "She says she tried to call you first."

"My phone is back in my room." You reply, taking it. There wasn't exactly pockets on that string bikini...

"Hello?"

"Oh thank goodness, Makoto!" Umeki answers happily. "I have good news, I found the children!"

"That's great, Umeki, but keep in mind Yuuki is still afflicted." You remind her.

"Mm, right. How are you going?"

"Got back Saito," you grunt, climbing over a rock, "lost Shun."

"Oh dear. Is she alright?"

"No idea. I don't think they'd kill her, but she's probably not in perfect health." You sigh, thinking about it. "The real problem is I can't track them."

"Hm... do you know anyone who could?" She asks. Nothing comes to mind, other than Robo perhaps. His sattelite could probably come in for an assist, but you'd need your phone or Yuuki to contact him. Shizuko might be able to help too; she seems to be fairly good at stalking, if memory serves.

"What do you think?" Umeki asks.

> Keep searching, just the two of you.
> Keep searching, alone.
> Get Yuuki on the phone.
> Tell Saito to keep looking, head back.
> Both of you head back and regroup.

>>43710041
>> Get Yuuki on the phone.
Hopefuly we can bribe him to keep him in place while we deal with the other two.
And Umekia can act as a soft distraction

>Orasmus
Shit, should be Oramus.

hell yeah, new thread and without shitty copypasta.

>>43709312
None, I DM 2 games and 1 I play in has a very lore-aware DM so it's all rad.

On a related note, it's been almost a week since last thread.
How was your last session, fucknuggets?

ALSO, I desire continuation of story of the Ovi the astropath. I know you're lurking here, you fucking lazy cunt, I've been waiting for over a year for you to continue.

**Trigger Warning**
> Massive autist questions incoming

My only other experience with tabletop RPGs is Pathfinder, taught to me through the DM. (I've never read the books.) I was just there for fun doing my best to play a character and to go with the flow when the dice started rolling 1s all night.

Anyways, I have been reading the deathwatch rulebook, but holy crap; there's A LOT to digest. Is deathwatch particularly loaded, or is that the nature of any RPG? I'm willing to keep trying because the D100 system kicks ass imo. Also, how does damage work in this game? If I'm shooting a bolter and some shmuck, I roll a BS test, and assuming I get 3 hits due to degrees of success, what happens from there? Where do the hits land? and when does damage get applied? Halp ; ~ ;

tl;dr - Run me through a round of combat pls

>>43709478
Not sure if any of my players lurk - but...

Session was great. Was running one of the apostasy gambit adventures where the players pretend to be relic inspectors so they can assess the cardinal for heresy. They got really into the relic inspector roles and forgot they had a job to do.

They also tried to help out with an exorcism in exchange for information. The exorcism went wrong and now Daemonhost - with the players, unarmed and unarmoured, barely having made it out of the room in time while it was busy killing the exorcist. Session ended there.

There's a Sororitas contingent on site, who'll probably execute them when they realise they aren't really relic inspectors and they've summoned a daemon.

Very excited for the next one.
