4e to see what D&D looks like if you apply modern game design.

3.PF to see just how luck you are that the system you play works, but also to feel envious at all the awesome shit the system had added to it (despite not much of it working)

2e to start delving into a completely different tone and playstyle, entirely separate from modern RPGs as you know them.

B/X or a Retroclone (like S&W) if you want a game design focused around dungeon exploration.

>>53525104
AD&D1e, 2e, and D&D4e.

It's absolutely great! It's an amazing source of bait threads where we do nothing but argue about how bad it is, and best of all, it's not D&D or Pathfinder!

It's awesome, pretty much my favorite game nowadays. A friend of mine was a backer for the Kickstarter and got himself a deck of cyphr cards, getting random cyphers like that is really fun.

I remember when we first started playing it I had zero interest. I made a cowardly character who mostly just ran away from danger and didn't even bother reading the rules for quite some time, I just rolled the dice and waited for the GM to tell whether what I rolled was good or not.

Then I started paying attention, and soon fell in love with the game.

>sacked the Invincible Fortress
This feels like a betrayal.

I mean, granted, this is Hell, it's to be expected, but the Invincible Fortress is meant to be one of the places where this happens less

>>53522512

The fortress still stands. Its guardians do not.

Hell as a gated neighborhood for classier demonfolk.

What do you mean by 'cinematic'?
Why are to sticking with your current system?
How far are you willing to change the rules of that system?

Just tell the story and flip a coin every time you want something to be unpredictable. Retards who want cinematic deserve nothing better

I decided to take another crack at the same Angel concept I made earlier but this time as a Heavy.

NAME: Barachiel, Eden’s Guardian
GOAL: Find Azrael and return to Heaven with him.
There was once a garden, more beautiful than anything in Creation. It is gone now, and with it The Tree of Life, but there are those who still remember its wonders...
Barachiel, a warrior of Heaven, was among the Hellguard who fought against the Nephilim at Eden. For his bravery in that battle he was among those charged with protecting the holy garden from anyone else who would seek to claim it. He was also there when the First Ones were cast out of Eden and the garden began to fall into ruins. Barachiel could not abide this; neither could the Archangel Azrael. At the Archangel’s behest, Barachiel agreed to continue defending the small piece of Eden which Azrael managed to save.
Following the Archangel’s disappearance in the aftermath of the Apocalypse, Barachiel petitioned to be allowed to go in search of his co-conspirator. His request was granted, but at a heavy price: the gates of the White City will remain forever closed to him unless he can return with the Archangel... and the location of Eden.

If the legs were a bit beefier then it'd be 10/10. Right now it's too top heavy for me.

Those puny legs are too frail to sustain the body. It's top heavy, and it can't look at its feet. 6/10

I'd like to request my friend's Elk Shaman runner. She's basically the elf in the right image (the antlers were biosculpted as a tribute to her totem), except with a much less over-ornate version of the clothing (none of the beads/hanging things, a simple straight hem instead of the wavy stuff, and the golden accents printed directly into the fabric instead of looking like separate jewelry), and a hunting rifle like the one on the right.

Thanks in advance!

Hello drawfriends. I want to request my human dervish doing either one of the poses on the right side, with an angry/cocky face. On the bottom right corner is the color scheme and general look of his blueshine mithril shirt and the color of his swords(vampiric bastard sword and a sun blade), and on the top right are the the colors of his eyes, skin, and hair.

God damn it put KD something in there so I don't make a duplicate thread.

Anyway

>>53450696
I thought it was kinda meh. Nothing really stood out to me this time around. I guess the fox survivor was neat to see.

The encore for the Necromancer Boss was the only thing that was neat, and was nice to pick up.
Kinda hope they do one for the Storm Knight again so I can snag one, dude looks like he'd be a blast to paint.

Apparently name and title boxes confuse me. Oh well, people should be able to figure it out.

Continuing the conversation on Castigator started last thread >>53317806

I see what you mean about "too many superweapons", but I would disagree with making Castigator a threat that shows up once in M33-M35. It makes him just another "unknown or long lost entity that briefly poses a threat to the Imperium but then is quickly defeated with few long-term implications on the setting". We already have the Harrowing, the M34 World Engine, and the "probable Man of Gold", two of which already tie into overarching plot elements of the setting and, if the latter is the same as the Cacodominus, all occur between M33-35.

That was the problem with Castigator in canon. He was a character with an interesting concept that showed up halfway through the last book in a series, and then was unceremoniously killed off by its end before the idea could be explored.

Also, does Chaos even have any superweapons yet in this timeline? All I can think of is the Planet Killer, and that's not so much a superweapon in use as one whose potential is being wasted by Erebus using it as his pimp-ship.

Maybe we should have Castigator's initial appearance on the galactic stage be then, but then through some contrivance he is only able to show up sporadically since then. Or tweak his power levels.

Castigator wouldn't be much of an issue with the established power-structure, because he's not a player on the board. For all his power, he's too narrow-minded to be a leader on his own. The three big Chaos warlords play him like a fiddle. Oscar, Malys, Be'lakor, Isha, and possibly even the Swarmlord could dismember him, as could sufficient (and more importantly, achievable) numbers of conventional forces. Castigator in canon was killed by a bunch of Grey Knights. A good comparison might be with a primarch like Magnus. Powerful, but not to the point where he's game breaking and you have to plan around him. Castigator would be less a superweapon and more a titan-scale hero unit you use in Epic.
