Hard mode- it has to be at least 75% Warlock levels, literally everything I can think of is just Warlock 3/something else X.

The best way to do a redemption story is to not redeem the character and just let bygones be bygones.

Blue Planet is nice, hard scifi with a neat setting. Good choice.

Warhammer 40k.

Nobody seems to know what it is when I go to my local game stores and I never see anyone talk about it on here, but I love the aesthetic of one of the factions in it.

The imperium of Man is kind of like if the Papacy was a stellar empire. They've got some really cool units too.

>>54192930
Is it really vaporwave? It seems more to be seapunk or oceangrunge to me.

>>54192873
Because they're too destructive for practical tactical use, and we have better strategic weapons than fissioning heavy elements, Zathras.

Why not wholly homebrew the city? You know what you want, you have inspiration, you know the system you want to run it in, and you've got some anons willing to give feedback and advice when you need it.

This is basically just real life Detroit so you can use that if you want.

Dungeon Craw Classics actually has the players make a bunch of characters at level 0, before putting through an introductory adventure called "the funnel" in which the vast majority of them are wiped out, and any that remain are your candidates for starting out as a shitty level 1 adventurer

Effort.
And because photoshop and digital programs had not reached their current level of sophistication.
And because Tumblr and deviant art wasn't a thing yet.

something about the shapes they use imo, nowadays art students are taught to exaggerate poses to extremes, and in some cases make it look worse than if they did something realistically. Only trouble with 80's art is it was fairly bland, which is fine, but nowadays expression has to be a part of armor...

I'm going out a limb here but I don't think Diablo 2 was released in the 80s.

I'm really tempted to proxy the vintage cube from MtG:O. Anyone ever play it? Any fun?

>>54191512

I've played it on MTGO, it's a lot of fun. There's really nothing like playing with the super high powered cards, drafting p9, jace, natural order, etc., all in the same cube. I usually do a few every year. There are obvious archetypes that get drafted, though, so it's not like it's a competely different ride every time. Storm is often there, white weenie is usually pretty good, mono red can be good, green ramp decks, and blue/white good stuff decks. I always make sure to play a few every time they have it up - especially comfy in the winter. It's probably even better in person when you all see what each other ended up with rather than the playing in the league format.

Build a Wizard's Tower instead

As long as is needed for it to be dramatically convenient. There's no set amount of time, deliberately.

>>54191210

I love that they allow for more open options by leaving things like this open.

So what do you do with a party who has no real intention of redeeming one of these guys? It'd seem shitty to make them do it if they find him too far gone.

>>54191526
The standard practice is, if you can't kill it, imprison it.

I wouldn't call it the stupidest, since it did result in a really cool scene, but one of my players decided to go after a big bad by himself while everyone else was unable to get to them, and attack the guy with a spell he would be resistant to. Still not a good idea, but it was what his character would have done. Choosing to use a spell that would do less damage to the guy though was not the brightest thing to do.

>>54191090
>it was what his character would have done
>hurrdurr imma retard but in character so its all ok
This is the logic right here. Don't be like this and don't let your players be like this either.

>>54189263

Think all orks fall under one of the klans, just the "your doods" will be further down the line if your Bad Moons are green or whatever.

Counts as etc. Custom armies basically just get to pick whatever suits them best, so hardly discouraging.

>>54189263
I imagine we'll see the typical klanz and craftworlds that has their own rules in the past. Done in something like chapter trait style with a set of rules/unit limitations. I hope there's a "none of the above" option where you just use the list given with no rules.

>>54189329
>None of the above option
Probably. I suspect it'll hang off the Keyword you choose to make your army.

So I could pick 'Aeldari' and go with whatever, or I could pick 'Saim-Hann' and have a more restricted list, but get some bonuses, like maybe having Windriders as troops.

I expect it'll work like that, anyway

I do, but sparingly. If the decisions they're making are sound ones, and the dice are just not helping them, I might lighten a blow here or there. Not enough to win them the fight right away, but enough to give them more time to think or come up with a potential escape plan.

No I let the dice roll where they lie. I think if you don't respect the game and it's rules then there's not much point in playing. Or more specifically if you don't want to play a game where I your characters can die in combat if they get unlucky then run something where that can't happen or house rule in something like fate points. But never fudge it.
