You're giving me very little to work with, but I'll try my best.
>Cestree:
Clearly some kind of infernal, but her soft expression and her heart belt buckle do imply some kind of goodness. I'm going for Lawful Good redeemed succubus.
>STR
Fuckhuge sword, some bicep definition, I'm going for 14: stronger than average but not a hulking musclemass.
>DEX
I always imagined Cestree to be a bit clumsy. 8 DEX.
>CON
If THICCness correlates with CON, Cestre's wide hips give her a solid 16 in CON.
>INT
No reason to assume she's either incredibly stupid or incredibly intelligent. 10-12 INT.
>WIS
Way too gullible. 8 WIS.
>CHA
18, no explanation needed.
Paladin would be a good fit, but paladin benefit from having decent WIS for spellcasting purposes. Maybe she's some weird, melee-centric Fighter/Bard hybrid?
>Ribbon
Ribbon in general is a smug cunt, a total That Guy and her expression and posture is downright hostile. Chaotic Neutral elf, with tendencies towards Evil.
>STR
Tiny, scrawny womanlet. 8 STR.
>DEX
She's an elf and pretty small, agility is a must for her. 16 DEX.
>CON
Elf, short and scrawny. 8 CON.
>INT
She demonstrates quite some intelligence despite being a smug cunt. 16 INT
>WIS
8 WIS, she clearly can't read the atmosphere. She also thinks that her Mary Sue PC's beauty counts as a flaw.
>CHA
8 once again. Smug cunt.
She'd probably be a combat oriented rogue. Her DEX and INT are highly impressive, benefiting her in terms of skills, and her high DEX may offset her low STR and CON in combat if combined with weapon finesse and a non-STR related way to deal melee damage (like sneak attack).
>>53982709
Ribbon being a smug cunt is her charm point, and should be a bonus instead of a penalty. Cha 14 at least.
How might the introduction of orcs, elves, and mages up to atleast the fifth level affect the 19th century battlefield?

Thread Question:
What's a card you don't play that runs roughshod in your meta?
Let's play another round of "Guess this Curve".
I want to build like three decks right now and I want to order cards immediately but I'm poor
how many of you have this problem
How good/fun is Kangee? I want to build a commander with white and I like the older commanders more. Also I already own some good bird cards so thinking about him.

>>53981891
I have a long running Rifts campaign, nothing here to even break a slight sweat about.
Any advice for someone planning on running a changling the lost campaign set in Milan?
Relatively to the Storyteller system. Mostly run Warhammer fantasy role-play 2e, though I have played a bit of L5R, Shadowrun & D&D.
What advice would you have for a new Storyteller?
Any interesting campaign hooks that you might recommend?
Planning on having the players start out with the support of a mentor, an older Changeling who escaped the same Keeper as one of the Players.
The Mentor would be the deposed ruler of one of the courts with the Usurper being closely related to him and behaving increasingly tyrannically with the general aim of the campaign being the deposition of that ruler and then replacing him.
Thinking of including some side elements such as a powerful acanthus mage seeking to learn more about Arcadia that could be an ally or an enemy depending on how the players treat him, a powerful Mafia boss who is mortal but is seeking to expand into some possibly supernatural business though he does not fully understand it and a demon who acts as an information broker and maintains and enforces a neutral zone for all supernatural creatures around the piazza Duomo.
>inb4 go to the general
I tried and have gotten no response.
No help?
Why Milan? I'm italian and holy fuck it's the least "magical" city we have, probably. Not bad per se or not that much, but jesus, use Turin at least*. The only reason I could see is that you live there (e in questo caso esigo che ci sia lo stalliere di Arcore come orco leggendario, minimo minimo).
*=actually that would be a Mage city. Not sure what I would use for changeling.
I come from Milan, ask me anything.
I have to confess I'm not very familiar with Changeling the Lost, but I don't think Milan would be the most suitable setting for you.
Don't listen to this >>53983744 guy, we have plenty of folklore both in the city proper and in the countryside, it's just we don't have many fey related stuff. It's mostly dragons, ghosts and alchemist-dukes messing around with the laws of nature.
Also in my opinion Milan would be the perfect italian setting for a Vampire game: a rich, densely populated city and center of trade wich not only supports vampires' decadent way of life, but also offers unmatchable hunting grounds with its active night life.
Still, if you look for feys, you should probably consider the northern area of Lombardy, where you can find the "Sanzasánch", the Bloodless, an evil clan of sprites hunting the town of Sondrio or the nightmare inducers Squass near Brescia.

Why the fuck WotC is releasing another Nissa PW deck? She had one in Kaladesh - even the colours are same.
What's the point of releasing a neat deck with Bolas if the second one is not a Amonkhet-native Planeswalker?

are we really making newcomers choose between a dragon with three colours and an elf with 1 colour?How can that work?
>>53980373
I was honestly expecting Jace to get the shitty starter deck this time
>>53980373
Planeswalker decks were a fucking mistake. I was saying it from the moment they were announced. Still they brought back core sets so maybe the old precons will return as well.

Can someone explain how Crusaders and Redeemers carry more, than base land raiders. It makes literally no sense to me (As a chaos player). And why GW didn't make all raiders hold 12 as a base in 8th?
In-lore it's because they don't need the extra reactor to power the lascannons
I guess im frustrated that GW has cucked me yet again by making chaos LRs completely void of any use other than an expensive tanky option.
>>53977131
I mean, they made land raiders shit for everyone. For once they didn't single you out as a chaos player. Not that you spoiled fuckheads get to pull that anymore with all of the cool releases.

>>53972841
I fucked up bad man.
Same weapons options, stats, and points cost, just the models redone to be actually aerodynamic. Would anybody be upset by this?
>>53972314
I like blocky stupid bullshit covered in skulls that doesn't make any science for imperial designs. I wish some of the designs themselves were less cluttered, but like the overt brutalist idiocy of it.
>>53972314
I'd change the stem to attach lower on the model (so it'd ride higher), armour up the cockpit and change the stupid fluff from "hurr, hover long boat, durr" to a proper assault ram. And make it available to more chapters. I hate it when they make chapter specific flyers.
>>53972623
>>53972700
Honestly I don't want to sound like a SM hater but their aircraft don't fit in, every other faction has the majority of their aircraft aerodynamic. From Tau to Eldar to Imperial Guard to even Orks (ironic), all of those armies have largely functional looking flyers.
Chapter specific units rarely make sense fluffwise but nobody wants the Space Marine subfactions to be just color swaps.
Who here /Hive/?
What are your favourite tactics and positioning?
>>53971461
One of my favorite abstracts.
I play my queen bee second, as you have to play it on or before your fourth piece, and I've heard first piece queen bee is disallowed in tournaments because it's considered too strong. I tend to save my ants because they are strong end game and you don't want them locked down. Better to place beetles or grasshoppers (or ladybug) early because of their movement options.
>>53973836
>disallowed in tournaments because it's considered too strong
the reason it's disallowed, is because it lead to, too many, stalemates.
also, pillbug,mosquito,queen master race reporting in!
What's the purpose of the ladybug expansion?

So... at a time when Ben Rome couldn't get canon BT products printed if he *paid for it himself*, he was also somehow managing to get canon BT products printed that utterly rewrote canon to blatantly favour a certain faction?
Anon, would you care to look at these two assertions in light of each other and examine them for logical consistency? Or do you believe in Napoleon's claim that consistency is nothing but the hobgoblin of small minds, as well?

Something doesn't add up. How you designed character specific hooks without even knowing the race of a character?
>>53958906
"hooks to adapt" is future tense, I assume he wrote the skeletons of these hooks and intended to flesh them out once he'd learned about the PCs
What's cool about Roman empire?
>>53957512
It just is.
>>53957512
they were master architects and engineers, with a disciplined and professional fighting force, and could draw upon the peoples of dozens of countries from all across the known world
their professional army was not replicated until the rise of national armies at hte end of the renaissance, they had large cities unsurpassed in size, their roads and foundations were considerably more advanced than those that came after
the romans were in many ways, the advanced precursors to nearly the entire middle ages, with a diverse and colorful history and demographics that would allow nearly any character archetype to exist within it
>>53957512
It was pretty big.
