She also had no real combat experience

No endurance
Eren was just way beyond them in training and endurance

Eren was autistic and his special interest was genocide

One thing I really appreciated about the series too was, at no point are titans any less dangerous really
dusk patrol
They get better stuff to deal with them but they’re still just as dangerous
vapid stone
air dropped armoured and beast titan
a titan turned into a tank
and eren plays collect them all with titan abilities

It also made sense how the use of Eldians like that would keep the fires of racism for Eldians stoked
Cause it’s horrifying
vapid stone
interestingly the only reason they're kept alive
i remember in other countries they did genocide the eldians
also I'm pretty sure the "true eldians" ethnically are the nobles of paradis island
since it's shown that the children of ymir were the descendants of ymir herself
who were the only people who could becomes titans (and be controlled by the founding titan)
but ymir was a slave who the original eldians captured
and those eldians I imagine didn't "breed" with the children of ymir
sp the nobles aren't affected by the founding titan's control

I kinda rushed through it the first time so I'm realizing it felt a lot smaller then lol
lunar harness
I like it more than either of the pathfinder games
i was not in it for the city building or army management mini games but they are annoyingly integrated into the whole experience which really ruined them for me
both games I grade the intro/prologue missions S+
and then they fall off a cliff
At least rogue traders gimmick is ship combat which is a lot simpler and actually somewhat similar to the way the rest of the game plays
just my opinion but I actually had fun with ship combat unlike the their other 2 games
green loom
I couldnt be bothered to play much kingmaker
I enjoyed Wrath a good bit doe
The outfits in all their games frustrate me
Give me a base clothing option instead of Perma locking me to one reee

7 billion options, but 6.9 billion of those options are suboptimal and you will be mocked for picking
green loom
My biggest gripe with wrath was the hordes of giant demons who got to cast mirror image
rocky gale
Like 5e gets shit, but most of it's options just work, like you could make some insane build to do cool things, but you don't have to and could just make an average character and have fun. Whereas Pathfinder is the sort of game where being even slightly suboptimal can make you utterly useless.
Yep
arctic talon
5e is easy
It’s easy to put together a character
And easy to keep it from being horribly dysfunctional
green loom
Is presented horribly
Uhh in what way

The rules presented in game aren't the rules of the Rogue Trader TTRPG like at all

Paladins are weird in wow
No night elf Paladin

Yea in previous editions, they were basically the same but with slightly different abilities. But in 5th edition the difference is greater because Paladins are no longer to do with gods, but they're champions of certain ideals

Oath of Conquest is juicy
green loom
Is oath of conquest the scary one
arctic talon
Oath of conquest is the scary one
rocky gale
Oath of Conquest and Oath of Vengeance are both pretty scary
arctic talon
The Oath of Conquest calls to paladins who seek glory in battle and the subjugation of their enemies. It isn’t enough for these paladins to establish order. They must crush the forces of chaos.
The tenets go crazy
Douse the Flame of Hope. It is not enough to merely defeat an enemy in battle. Your victory must be so overwhelming that your enemies’ will to fight is shattered forever. A blade can end a life. Fear can end an empire.
Rule with an Iron Fist. Once you have conquered, tolerate no dissent. Your word is law. Those who obey it shall be favored. Those who defy it shall be punished as an example to all who might follow.
Strength Above All. You shall rule until a stronger one arises. Then you must grow mightier and meet the challenge, or fall to your own ruin.
rocky gale
But Conquest is more crowd control, while Vengeance is typically big single target damage
arctic talon

What are oathbreakers
arctic talon
you somehow break your paladin oath
rocky gale
If you're Conquest and multiclass into a full caster you can get the Fear spell and it's a busted combo with your Aura of Conquest
arctic talon
and are punished for it by losing your powers(sort of)
and you gain new ones
Oathbreaker is very much an evilest option
from a gameplay pov with the spells your given
But from a role play perspective a good person can break their oath pretty easily
rocky gale
Because the Fear spell doesn't get saving throws each turn, it's just Frightened for 1 minute where the only action they can take is to run away. While Aura of Conquest causes their speed to become 0 and to take damage everyturn
So the creature literally just stands there for 10 turns taking damage, unable to do anything

A dunno. Took oath of rebirth an such. Became plague ridden paladin
rocky gale
I remember playing in a game where the DM tasked us with making the most broken characters possible and I ended up with a Conquest Paladin/Phoenix Sorcerer (UA) Tiefling build and it was insane
I ended up stacking so many different abilities and modifiers that whenever an enemy attacked me they'd take a minimum of 20 damage in retaliation
rocky gale
There was a point during a boss fight where the boss attacked me like 5 times and dealt 30 damage, then took over 120 damage in retaliation, then I got my turn and attacked him for 30 more.
arctic talon
lol
lunar harness
And it’s hard to sort shit
This, the favorite system is awful and I spent like 4 hours planning out all my builds and then forgetting everything I planned because the nothing is easily sortable out of 400 options, 200 of which are just +10 to a skill and +20 to a skill with rerolls.
Oh well, I just spammed two officers and had my arch militants take 50 actions a turn

Or Twilight, one of the most OP subclasses ever
WotC really said "What if we made a subclass that did everything?"
arctic talon
Twilight and peace shouldn’t be in BG3
Tbf
Those 2 are genuinely fucking stupid
Twilight you can design around, peace cleric is ????
rocky gale
Twilight is just absurd
Like Martial and Heavy, Darkvision to 300ft and the ability to give all of your allies Darkvision to 300ft for an hour, plus advantage on initiative. All at lvl 1.
Then like 30ft aura at lvl 2 which can heal and end conditions
Flying as a bonus action at lvl6
Like jesus
Like the 300ft Darkvision one is the real kicker for some campaigns
rocky gale
Like the whole thing with Darkvision is it's got limitations, it's got a short range, it's dim light instead of bright and there's no guarantee your entire party is going to have it. But Twilight Cleric just basically negates all that
dusk patrol
Although with dark vision I never really got why it was distance based
rocky gale
It's supposed to be a drawback
rocky gale
So like if you're trying to sneak around in the dark cave without light you can only see so far ahead
But then it's kinda moot because most darkvision range is the same or more than the range of a torch anyway
Like most darkvision is 60ft, while the light spells max range is 40ft
dusk patrol
I remember the conversation when my DM realized I was making my rogue Sam Fisher with the stuff I was requesting from the artificer
“Yes so I want some kind of dark vision goggles”
“And when I pull them down they make a little high pitched whine”

It is true to the RPG mostly unfortunately
It’s not very difficult to become immune to lasgun fire

Now this got me thinking what is the strongest laspistol the imperium ever made
like an actually special one that is custom upgraded and stuff\
dusk patrol
The lantern I guess
green loom
Lasguns and up are fine
Especially the unique ones
But laspistols are just insanely bad lol
dusk patrol
Although it was technically a DAoT kinda weapon but
queen laurel
The lantern I guess
the one mortarian uses?
dusk patrol
Yeah
queen laurel
that's a laspistol
dusk patrol
It’s basically a juiced up laspistol on steroids
Fires huge blasts of energy
Although for him it’s more a handheld lascannon but
We’ve seen similar things on a smaller scale, there’s a Ad Mech las weaponry expert who has miniaturized las cannons on their person

Yeah one in Brutal Cunning carried that
rocky gale
The Belasco Dueling Pistol is a pretty powerful Laspistol
dusk patrol
Sanguinius’s pistol could arguably apply too
Eh nvm it’s pretty solidly described as a melta style weapon
I might be forgetting some but I think the Lantern is probably the most impressive
green loom
I need to remember where the Hell pistol drops

The one inquisition ship
Derelict one with the zombies

Like all 9 of them are all just Tau armies
Nope, they'd probably agree on T'au but would have different armies
Ryuji with Orks
Morgana would probably be Ultramarines
Yusuke wouldn't be able to afford one
I could see Futaba going for AdMech/Necron
It would be hilarious if Haru had any Khorne stuff

Ryuji with Orks
Ryuji is an ork player
He has the fun loving spirit of a proper ork player atleast
What makes Mona ultramarine's though?
wraith root
Either because they are supposed to be the best at what they do or because they are poster boys and look good
vast crystal
Makes sense
Ann and yusuke are ether Eldar/Dark Eldar or Chaos
Ren is probably thousand sons
Or somekind of tzeentch army
Mokoto is definitely sister’s of battle and I will not elaborate
vast crystal
Former black templars
Haru is khorn
Bottom text
And akechi is using mokotos old black Templar army that she sold to him
Ether that or it's iron warriors
wraith root
Thinking if he would be the type to commission someone to paint
vast crystal
He pays yusuke
Way more than his asking price
It's how he can buy his army's
Speaking of which what would yusuke's army be
(Reminder that given akechi Is a literal celebrity he'd probably have the funds to do that)
wraith root
I'm not sure about Yusuke's army, he's a little too complex
Probably wouldn't appreciate the distorted beauty of Slaneesh
wraith root
I mean, he's an artist, there's a chance that he doesn't appreciate distorted anthropomorphic images
Although I don't remember much of his Confidant route
vast crystal
Same here
...maybe costodies?
Like ether custodies or tau
I'm leaning towards costodies though
Ann is dunkari
I've decided she's a dark Eldar player
vast crystal
I've decided she's a dark Eldar player
Because she's quite literally all about the villainess/fem fatale asthetic and the dunkari get pretty goddamm close to it
Slannesh also dose but that's way to obvious of an answer
Sumire is tau
wraith root
Sumi, be free, yeah that could work
green loom
Is the motive force just electricity
dusk patrol
Basically
Bit more than that spiritually and it’s connected to machine spirits and stuff too
wraith root
If so what is he?
He's the Goat, THE GOAT
If you consider LeBlanc as a Fortress, Imperial Fist is a pretty good choice

You know, the old Semitic stereotype of being a giant planet eating swarm
Anyways we should steer into a new topic
storm jungle
tough haven
How plausible is it for workers under the mechanicus to be granted rights like they do in Forges of mars?
dusk patrol
Big ole it depends but not likely
There’s not some chart we have for how likely this stuff is, it’s not typical but it’s not impossible or forgeworlds and Magos can all operate differently
celest dome
They'll always be treated as second class compared to people born on Forge Worlds, but that doesn't mean that exeptions can't happen
dusk patrol
Being born on a Forgeworld doesn’t really matter, they’re just gonna treat you like shit regardless
Say what you will for the Ad Mech but they really only see people as bodies mostly
If you’re a body who happens to be tied to someone powerful or better yet was found to have the aptitude to try to join the priesthood then power to you.

Blood ravens better than both.

In forges of mars, an arch magos of an explorator fleet grants them decent working conditions and basic rights after they revolt and take control of the servitors, threatening to destroy the ship
dusk patrol
I know
storm jungle
Thats the same book that basically says workers having no rights is about as much of a religious creed as their other doctrines and that they should be glad they are treated as they are (aka slaves)
they also openly mention these "rights" will probably be revoked by the time they are back in imperial space.
Even the most compassionate techpriest or magos would get ousted for trying to appeal to the working class by their colleagues or worse because the admech are just awful.

Love in the first book of the WB omnibus when the Magos talks to literally anyone he is the most insufferable thing possible

actual redditor
I think Mechanicus the game was probably the biggest display of an actually "nice" techpriest with Faustinius and even he cant extend his compassion en-masse.
viral halo
"Hey Magos, why is the admech sending insane amounts of troops to fight the WB, we can handle it"
The magos trying to conceal a tombworld going on a rant about how he's contractually obligated to help humans and continues to repeat it until the general fucks off
Then the word bearers capture him and put a daemon monkey in his mech balls or whatever and turn him into a body horror killing machine

you should see the techpriest peeps in Day of Ascension tbh
