So I'm working on building up a Renegades & Heretics list from the Vraks book using the Purge detachment with the Ordnance Tyrant. That lets me use artillery for Elites and Troops slots as well as Heavy slots. With 8 troop slots and 4 elites slots, that should give me enough room to fit a ton of artillery in. What else should I look at getting for these guys? I keep hearing good things about rapier laser batteries. Are they as good as people say? Cheap ordnance at BS2 or 3 if I upgrade them. Should I stuff most of my heavy slots with those?

New Ork codex when?

Its true, you can use whatever miniatures you want, a lot of people were posting warbands made from minis they had from their Warhammer collections, some from old DnD stuff, and yet others using stuff from Malifaux and stuff. Some people even suggested using sci-fi or pulp figures in a thread on Lead-Adventure.

I think its a fun game, but for some reason it didn't become that popular. I personally think it was a lack of background on the city and a general lack of anything other than basic rules for the game, but yea. I wouldn't say its dead, but it doesn't generate as much hype as it once did.

And to reiterate: You can use whatever models you want, the troop and wizard profiles are generic as all get out.

>>43578020
>A friend has been insisting that you can play in accordance with the rules even if you're using miniatures from a different line. Is this true, or an asspull?

You can play with other miniature lines. The rulebook even says you can.

>>43578556
Is there a PDF floating around of the rules? I'd like to look them up and figure out if it's for me.

From the outside? You're fucked.

From the inside, sabotage is your best bet. Demo charges or melta bombs (hell, even a few well-placed krak grenades in the generatorium or warp engines) ca. absolutely ruin it's shit.

Mechanically, Rogue Trader flat-out says that the damage man-portable weapons do to starships is so negligible as to be nonexistent.

Milled metal dice.

You can get d6s, but others are impossible. Sintered is available, but milled is casino precision.

Artisandice.com cheaper versions of anything on this site. Affordable mammoth-bone d20 anyone?

Because they're cool.

Two people in good social standing may have a duel over serious disputes.

>>43577614
Maybe because using blades inside a ship (especially while traveling through space) or advanced installation is less hazardous than using ranged or kinetic energy weapons. A stray shot might hit something sensitive. Dunno.

Did I make you smile?

>See official conversion guide
Woah, awesome
>It basically tells you to play a completely different character while naming him the same as your previous one
Why did they even release this shit? If conversion is impossible say "conversions are impossible" not this bullshit.

I was looking to min/max a cleric for healing but I was told that Paladin's Aura of Protection is the best healing spell

>Where do you get puzzles/ideas for puzzles that you can incorporate into your adventures?

Books, movies / comics, reddit, actual /5eg/ threads, and google ("best D&D puzzles" etc) in that order.

How long it would take depends on what shape it's in and what technology makes it economically feasible.

Because if you're talking about finding an anoxic ancient earth like planet and superseding the primitive life on it in order to oxygenate it's atmosphere, it'd depend mostly in the level of dissolved iron, but could probably be accomplished in under a million years if started intentionally.

>>43577228
Depends of how it was before the process started.
Lava world? yeah it might take a centuries.
Desert world would take a few decades.

Depends also of available outside materials, like a comet, if you can divert it to enter atmosphere and burn some of it's ice to kickstart the rain process or whatever.

It would probably be easier genetically engineering humans to suite the climate of the new world.

So it's a documentary?

>>43577142
not gonna touch it, because i know they are going to leave out the biggest player in miniature wargaming, which is GW. the reason is most likely because they reached out to GW and they refused to participate, for obvious reasons a big corporation would want to refuse cooperation

so the whole thing will just be a big wankfest over the companies (which half of them are too recent to be part of 'wargaming history') who donated to the project.

TLDR: it will just be a big commercial

>>43577455

The fact that they are extinct probably adds to the mystery, and therefore appeal, for most people. But personally? Yes.

People would feel the same about dinosaurs in that world as we feel about animals in this world. Which is to say: we would have many different opinions about many different dinosaurs.
