If you have players dumb enough to put on the devil's cursed armor, it doesn't matter. There's no saving them.

This.

I wouldn't even stop their arms from moving. I'd let them cast the spell, then have them hear maniacal laughter in their head.
You can't back out of a bargain that easily.

This is an example of a That DM decision.

>because magic is so impractical people bargain with angels/demons for what are more or less superpowers

Off topic, The Banner Saga is fantastic and I'd love to play a table top game in its setting.

On topic,
>There are legends of magics far greater than the ones known in the world, creating storms, earthquakes, ect, but those are only mentioned in tales of Gods and Spirits from ancient times, and are followed by long and lengthy descriptions of the ridiculous sacrifices those apparently took. Yugon The Ageless is said to have been brought back to life after the sacrifice of an entire country.

Each race/culture has a standard contract that it specializes in. Humans are typically make Host contracts wherein they allow a demon/angel/spirit to subtly influence their actions in exchange for magical power. Some species instead choose to allow the patron to influence their physical form, take control of them for periods of time, or simply provide them with some variety of tribute in exchange for power.

This thing is going to be busted as fuck in EDH. Probably Bant for color identity given the other legends in the set. I NEED IT.

>Thread Question:
>If you could take one card off the reserved list for EDH, what would it be?
Gaea's Cradle, the thing is ludicrously overpriced and insanely powerful. It should be banned or reprinted. It's the only legal card in it's tier.

Good job OP

Do you actually mean the reserve list or do you mean the banlist?

ADB pls. Emperor and Malcy boy are the definition of heroes.
>tfw no book about Malcador and Emperor bro-ing up and doing gurren-lagann-tier shit
>tfw the day comes when He rises again from his throne

2 Battalion Detachments of the following:
1 Company Commander
2 Commissars
6 units of Conscripts at 50 flashlights per blob
1,984 points.

>2 Stompas
>1,954 points

> Chaos Army
> Nothing but Cultists, as in, no Chaos Marines, no Daemons, just a horde of Cultists large enough to frequently outnumber Tyranids, as many boots on the battlefield as possible.

You'd be surprised how effective shitty units can be in large enough numbers. I'm thinking of going Ork and using a nigh infinite Grot Swarm.

Amalathian, but leaning Casophilian.

I try to post quality content, be a good person, and I still would rather go to /tg/ than most other boards, but I don't think /tg/ is as great as it used to be anymore. At best I'm aping the old style of humor on occasion - humor that I don't fully understand, being a newfag - and I've come to realize that even if we could bring it back, I don't think anyone would want it now. Times have changed too much. The better days are gone now, all I can do is keep this thing afloat so it won't get worse.

We told them to go to /qst/

They did and now we're suffering for it.

>How does the Assault Bolter differ from the Storm Bolter rules wise?
It shoots three shots instead of 2/4 and hits like a heavy bolter.

>Fluff wise are they a contender to replace Storm Bolters?
Probably not. GW will probably think of a reason why all terminators don't just start running around with them standard issue. Probably the same reason Primaris Marines can't fit inside Land Raiders and Space Marines can't fit instead Repulsors: "Stop asking questions, because we said so."

But there's literally no fucking reason for termies to use storm bolters anymore over these things

>>54137015
There's also no reason for regular marines to use bolters over bolt rifles. And no reason for Guard to use lasguns over bolters.

GM with 22 years experience here. (22 of GMing, more of playing).

Use Dungeon World system, but adapt (Dungeon World calls it "hacking" the system) it to Witcher setting. Just steal the core of the rules, if you're a regular dm/gm I'm sure you know how to do that. You can create your own custom moves and there is a guide in the book how to do that.

www.dungeonworldsrd.com

It's 2d6+appropriate mod, 6- = fail with consequences 7-9 = success but with consequences, 10+ = pure success.

Only players roll.

It is one of THE greatest systems I have ever played. The entire dw book is like a manual on how to be a great gm. The only bad advice I found in there was to split up your players as a 'move' you can make. That's always a terrible idea, unless its VERY temporary, like split them up but in the same room, to solve a trap puzzle.

Other than that, no warnings

The system is built to make amazing narrative with very even pacing and lots of interaction.

Let your players make up as much or as little as you like while still having as much control as GM as you want - but if you're stuck for an idea or etc. you can actually ask a player 'what is here?' or 'why is that?' and have what they say become reality.

I know what I'm saying isn't going to make complete sense without having read the rule book but trust me - its worth your time.

The rule book reads pretty bland and unappealing, that's VERY deceptive. I wasn't impressed by the actual book itself -- until I actually TRIED the system.

Blew me away.

I almost feel like I could never go back to a pass-fail dice system ever again. (Like anything d20, or d100.)

You can find the rules at www.dungeonworldsrd.com.

Good luck!

>how would you successfully secede from the Imperium
You don't

>without falling victim to Chaos or Xenos
If they don't get you the Imperium will

>>54135699
I wouldn't. Either you're so small and useless that no one notices you seceded (In which case you get steamrolled by the first threat that rolls by), or you're important enough to bring back to heel immediately using the full force of the Imperium, which will force you to make stupid deals and compromises to survive. Secession is a sucker's game.
