#

People just don't like seeing failures after a 97% roll and they can't accept it really is plausible to fail those

#

Part of the problem is the visual representation of those failures too though

summer mural
#

I love xcom 2

#

gotta cheese the rng

#

98% misses will still happen sometimes

#

and the chosen assassin is

#

well shes unfair

#

and mean

shadow plover
raven stone
#

I mean, I actually installed the true accuracy mod for all difficulties

#

But my comment is more about how cover doesn't help you out too much at times (half cover feels like no cover)

#

Or that the AI knows how to camp a fun lancer at blindspots

summer mural
#

half cover is no cover and full cover is half cover, thats what you assume

raven stone
#

Ye

summer mural
#

xcom 2 is a breeze now for me tbh, got more than 1.5k hrs

#

i wish I could erase my memory and restart from scratch

raven stone
#

XCom2 WoTC really just asks you to do deadly Alpha strikes, in essence

summer mural
#

the wotc special classes are extremely powerful too

raven stone
#

But you also have to know how to set it up so you have a plan if that goes wrong

summer mural
#

templar, reaper and skirmisher

raven stone
#

Reaper

#

Remote starts are fun

summer mural
#

you can get lucky with your templar and get bladestorm and reaper on him

#

thats one man wrecking crew

#

reaper is also busted once you get banish, put a superior repeater and superior mag on your reaper

#

superior repeater will insta kill targets, and your reaper will just switch to a different one and keep firing till your mass mag runs out

#

also grenadiers are actually an amazing support class, put holo targeting on all of them

#

and once you start racking up ability points , you can just go into absurd levels of power since you can unlock all the skills you didnt pick for all your classes

#

this is most valuable on ranger

#

who can go from being a full melee build to getting all the busted shotgun skills too

#

its also very valuable on support, because you can get the mech genocide skills in addition to the healing build

raven stone
#

Early game, if you get thr Shadowkeeper pistol...that turns the Sniper into a great shot with the Pistol

summer mural
#

yeah the chosen weapons are great

#

also

#

to actually make the assassin fight much much easier, you can pack your sniper with two of those throwable scanners that reveal a large area, that makes her visible and makes her invisibility useless

raven stone
#

I had been trying yo do a deathless Commander Ironman run over Easter.

Let's just say I think I lost a few sanity points from both malicious AI and my own bad decisions in game

summer mural
#

yeah its pretty hard if rng cucks you

#

but if you play well, the only thing that can cuck you is rng

#

and it wont happen that often

raven stone
#

Never trust a hit percentage that is not 100% is what I learned

#

I almost always finish the last HPs with a nade now

summer mural
#

well I also learnt that defensive skills and abilities can be useful in a pinch

#

and those arent great on lower difficulties

#

but I actually used smoke grenades a ton my commander runs

#

also, the lost are actually your friends if you bring a sniper, you can trigger so much kill chaining

raven stone
#

Or, in my case, because I (think) the true aim nod influenced Lost somewhat

They start smacking ADVENT for me lol

summer mural
#

skirmishers are ...ok, they really need a lot of levels, that you can start giving everyone extra actions willy nilly, especially on your rangers and grenadiers

#

they can attack advent, but its not the most reliable thing

#

whats generally more useful is that advent can attack them

#

especially lancers

#

ive had members in my team saved because a lancer went after a lost instead

plush mason
#

i just remembered why i quit destiny 2

#

fuck these stupid ass jumping puzzles

summer mural
#

i quit destiny 2 after they started removing paid content from the game

plush mason
#

that too

#

but the jump puzzles actively make the gameplay worse

raven stone
summer mural
#

it can also differ on missions

#

pretty sure some missions the lost go after you instead of advent

raven stone
#

Interesting

summer mural
#

I think

#

dunno for sure

#

but the lost dont do much instead of being a distraction

plush mason
#

like how the fuck do you make this jump?

summer mural
#

advent is pretty decent at killing them on high difficulties

#

also, fuck andromedons

#

those things are worse than sectopods

raven stone
#

Acid attacks are no joke

summer mural
#

its not even that tbh

#

its just taking out andromedons quickly makes me use up a lot of resources

#

those bastards are thicc

#

but if youve been levelling your support well, you can pretty much hack em after they go into melee only mode

plush mason
#

im just assuming you have to have teather to do it and i dont own lightfall so no teather

SQUIG JOCKEY 🗣️ 🗣️

storm jungle
#

Ninja turtles?

raven stone
#

Looks like some sort of Ad Mech landmine

#

In all honesty

#

Or power generator

tough haven
#

Anyone know any good discords to find TTS killteam games?

tough haven
#

Then the runtherd shouts “Squigken Jockey!”

#

And a grot with stikkbomms falls onto it and krumps the git, to the crowd’s surprise

#

Wait I forgot about squighog riders, that works way better

hallow saddle
#

squiggen jockey 🗣️

twin shoal
#

anyone ever seen someone defend what erda did?

tough haven
#

Who?

twin shoal
# tough haven Who?

shes the one to blame for scattering the primarchs across the galaxy before they were ready which ultimately is why half of them fell to chaos

tough haven
#

I see

jade holly
tough haven
#

There’s a whole unit based around it

storm jungle
#

I cant exactly feel bad for either party because they would still be genocidal warlords lol

#

it doesnt exactly take much as we have seen for them to fall to chaos considering how petty they can be

queen laurel
#

And with 40k well

#

A beastboss on a squigosaur is a thing

tough haven
#

Also squighogs

#

But then instead of squiggen jockey you get

storm jungle
#

Squigs basically can be anything the plot requires yeah

storm jungle
#

theres literal squigs whos entire job is to pump oil

#

lol

queen laurel
#

So you are wrong

queen laurel
tough haven
queen laurel
#

Where do you think they get those colors they have

tough haven
#

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was some sort of nid offshoot with how adaptable they are

#

Like how the fuck do you breed for “brush ability”

storm jungle
tall plinth
#

So lemme get this straight

rose thorn
queen laurel
#

Or also speakers

rose thorn
tall plinth
#

Would the emperor support using chaos to defeat the tyranids

storm jungle
#

no lol

queen laurel
#

Absolutely not

storm jungle
#

That is like

queen laurel
#

You do know that one of the gods the chaos people worship is like

storm jungle
#

the most moronic suggestion you could make in-universe

queen laurel
#

The god of war and murder

#

So let's give them things to murder

rose thorn
#

We need to drill into new people’s brain the emperor is a plot device

queen laurel
#

That is going to turn out very very horrible

queen laurel
tall plinth
#

🤷🏼‍♂️

blazing wraith
#

Hot take: I think they should revive the emperor. He would be very changed, though. Being a chaos god with trillions of souls sacrificed to you each day does stuff to you.

tough haven
tough haven
#

He could do anything and everything at any moment

rose thorn
#

He’s a dude he’s not a god

tough haven
rose thorn
#

He got bodied by orks

tough haven
blazing wraith
#

It would be an interesting development, and I think the best way to make the lore progress

tough haven
rose thorn
#

Lore progress = less models being made

tough haven
#

The plot doesn’t progress in any way that’s meaningful

blazing wraith
#

I think leaked behind the scenes lore documents confirmed that he is a chaos god.

tough haven
#

It’s GW

#

They want to keep the 7 seconds to midnight schtick

rose thorn
tough haven
#

Which I like

#

It makes it open for home brewers

rose thorn
#

If you want a setting that makes lore progress read AOS

#

What are some vital aspects of hive city life to portray? Or things to show to really capture it?

tall plinth
#

The overwhelming stench

polar ridge
#

Resource recycling, crowding, giant factories, general lawlessness and gang rule at a certain depth, mutation

raven stone
#

Lower to Middle Hivers (or hell, even the Hive Nobles less well positioned) who never really see the real sky

#

But instead just the massive insides of the Hive

#

(In fact anything you see in an average run on the insides of the Hive)

#

Also outer surface of Hive is not necessarily more glam either

tall plinth

#

People

#

Oblivion Remaster just came out

hallow basin
#

Terrible day indeed

rocky gale
#

It's out, it's released

queen laurel
#

WHAT

#

How

rocky gale
#

It's out

#

On Gamepass and Steam and PS5

queen laurel
faint stirrup
#

I’ve jokes about the Astra Militarum doing all the work, then the Astartes just show up and take all the credit. Does that really happen a lot?

queen laurel
#

Astartes are only deployed in the worst of war zones

summer mural
#

damn

#

oblivion trailer dropped 7 mins ago

#

its time for the memes in 4K

rose thorn
rocky gale
#

It released

summer mural
#

yeah its playable rn

rocky gale
#

They did a stealth drop

queen laurel
rose thorn
#

Insane

queen laurel
#

It's already out

rocky gale
#

Had a livestream announcing it and then at the end said "It's already released, start downloading"

rose thorn
#

Lmao

queen laurel
#

They have been developing this for a long time now

#

If they can just release it like this

rose thorn
#

I fo got was Bethesda good at remakes

queen laurel
raven stone
#

Not sure if I should ever try the Elder Scrolls despite hearing the name so often.

Feels like a LOT of catching up...and Bethesda shenanigans.

summer mural
#

Im not buying it till steam has reviews out

rose thorn
#

Unless the original game aged like a concussion I usually don’t get remakes

queen laurel
#

I could not finish the original

summer mural
#

but you didnt empty your wallet for skyrim with fishing?

queen laurel
#

It was a bit clunky

summer mural
#

also, Im giving up hope on playing elder scrolls 6 in my lifetime

queen laurel
#

But oblivion does give me the option for unarmed

#

Which skyrim doesn't

rose thorn
queen laurel
#

I will see if

#

They messed up or actually made it

#

Just like the old but you know looks better

#

I love oblivion but my god the npcs look like a potato

#

That got crushed in the head

distant marsh
#

Is there like a lore ranged weapon exclusive to zealot that is yet to be added?

arctic talon
#

I guess hand flamers aren’t used in the guard

#

Or inferno pistols

whole venture
#

iirc zealots are just regular civilians that went bloody mad over the emperor, so they wouldn’t really have that much special gear

#

the devs could probably think some up if they wanted, but fatshark is Slow

arctic talon
#

Or members of the ecclisarchy

#

Though of the zealots in game

#

I think literally only the judge(maybe) classifies as that lol

distant marsh
#

Inferno pistols sounds cool, let me google how it looks

#

Is it just a miniflamer or does it fire something else?

rocky gale
arctic talon
rocky gale
#

Inferno pistol is the name for a Melta weapon that's pistol size

arctic talon
#

Yeah

arctic talon
rocky gale
#

Yea

arctic talon
#

They’re flamer/eviscerator things

#

I guess it’s more of a ranged then a melee

distant marsh
#

Daaang looks pretty good

#

I guess they can get rid of the chainsaw

rocky gale
#

Maybe as a variant of Flamer that shoots fireballs and then has a strong melee bash instead of an ads

hexed orchid
#

A flamer and an eviserator? pogryn

whole venture
#

that realistically looks like it would self combust if you bashed it the wrong way, but it does look very cool indeed

arctic talon
#

They do

#

Prolly lol

#

That’s why only the crazy religious folks use it TopKekSphere

whole venture
#

TRUE

arctic talon
#

Release 2 evicerators

#

One for melee one for ranged

#

Melee one has the bigger chainsaw design

#

Ranged one has the bigger flamer design

queen laurel
#

Religious people tend to be very very insane

storm jungle
distant marsh
#

Also what about the melta?

#

Or we can't use those for holy reasons

queen laurel
#

It's just has particular appeal to religious folk

#

Because imperium religious folk love the purifying flame

#

Burning away heresy in righteous fire

arctic talon
summer mural
#

doesnt everyone?

arctic talon
#

Meltas and flamers

#

Are both favorites for pyre burnings lol

distant marsh
#

And does melta have a huge a range? orrrr it have to be at point blank for it to work?

arctic talon
#

Melta has

#

Some range

distant marsh
#

I guess space marine 2 can give an idea but those guys are huge

arctic talon
#

It’s beat up close

#

Nah

#

The SM2 melta isn’t accurate at all lol

#

Too wide

#

Not narrow enough for the shot

distant marsh
#

What u mean by wide

#

Ohhhh aig

queen laurel
distant marsh
#

The "bullet"

queen laurel
#

Imagine a hair dryer

#

Now make it shoot superheated laser beams

#

Strong enough to melt through a tank

distant marsh
#

So... maaaaybe like 5 meters? 10??

arctic talon
#

Prolly a bit more

#

But it’s most effective as close as possible

#

Melta dissipates fast

distant marsh
#

but bullet not as large as in space amrine 2

#

Oh thats great then

queen laurel
#

Like it's mostly depicted in games

distant marsh
#

It can deal with crushers right?

arctic talon
#

Oh

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

It’ll instantly kill one

#

Lol

distant marsh
#

Like some armor plate wont stop this huge lava bullet

arctic talon
#

No armor stops it

#

They can melt holes in titans

queen laurel
#

Yeah this can melt through just about everything

distant marsh
#

Allright if they add it it will sure be fun, need more variety for ranged in zealot 😔

arctic talon
#

You just need to get close enough

#

Lol

#

Also the things are limited ammo wise

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

A single canister doesn’t have a ton of ammo lol

queen laurel
#

To a titan

queen laurel
arctic talon
#

Nah

#

You get a few shots per canister of fuel

distant marsh
#

Wonder what would be easier to implement in the game, powerfist or melta

arctic talon
#

But don’t except it to break double digits

arctic talon
#

Power fist would be wonky animation wise

distant marsh
#

Whyyyy

#

At first thought it would be like Doomfist guantlet lmao

#

But nah nah

arctic talon
#

You gotta take the damn thing off

#

For guns

#

Is the issue

queen laurel
# distant marsh Whyyyy

It's easier to animate melee weapons in first person than fist and animations need to be short and compact

#

Also that

summer mural
#

are all mounted mortal chaos cav chaos warriors and not chosen

rocky gale
#

You mean in AoS?

summer mural
#

in fantasy

rocky gale
#

Oh

summer mural
#

like rot knights, pleasureseekers etc

#

chaos knights

rocky gale
#

In that case, don't know/don't care

summer mural
#

aos has chosen?

#

i still havent looked into aos chaos

queen laurel
summer mural
#

seems very similar

rocky gale
#

Yea they've got Chosen, but it's not a seperate keyword for Chosen

queen laurel
rocky gale
#

But I'd guess the Varanguard would be the version of Mounted Chosen

summer mural
#

whats the big difference in aos chaos warriors? except for dorghar being unashamed of its appearance

rocky gale
#

What do you mean?

summer mural
#

so same thing with better models?

queen laurel
#

Well they have new different things like

summer mural
#

also theres no norsca anymore right, so how do they get like

#

wannabe paths of glory types

rocky gale
#

Darkoath are like the new Norsca

#

Only cooler

queen laurel
summer mural
#

I see

#

Il check em out

rocky gale
#

They're chads who are part of Chaos because it gives them powers and the opportunity for revenge against Sigmar who abandoned them, not because they actually worship the Chaos gods

queen laurel
#

Their big guys are also different

ogroids

summer mural
#

is that darkoath

#

or chaos warriors

queen laurel
#

It's the same beat with ogres

summer mural
#

ohh

queen laurel
#

Beast claw are ogres but they are basically monsters spammers followed by blizzards

#

Got busters mean while are the traditional old world ogres

summer mural
#

so do darkoath wanna be chaos warriors, like they aspire to it?

rocky gale
#

Nope

queen laurel
#

Larmoth literally just told you

rocky gale
#

They view Chaos warriors as losers who are slaves to the gods

summer mural
#

so how does the hierarchy work

rocky gale
#

Darkoath have their own pantheon of primal gods, that has been infiltrated by Chaos. They swear blood oaths on their runestones and it gives them powers. They serve alongside the other forces of Chaos basically just for revenge against Sigmar because when the Age of Chaos started they were abandoned by him and locked outside the safe walls of the Cities.

storm jungle
#

Yeah its why they got that wendigo/skinwalker aesthetic in some of their stuff

#

its very neat

rocky gale
#

The Wilderfiend

queen laurel
rocky gale
#

and the best model ever, Broken Nadja

queen laurel
rocky gale
arctic talon
arctic talon
#

Darkoath are the ones mostly represented with minis though

#

Which is cool

queen laurel
#

Just like the dark oath they don't worship the chaos gods but they worship archaeon

rocky gale
#

Yea the other cultists were all Warcry teams

#

Sadly most of them are gone now though

summer mural
#

this belakor model is kinda dope ngl

arctic talon
#

Tbh

#

I wish we got more on the chaos civilizations

#

The warcry teams came from

arctic talon
#

It’s also unusable in whfb LOL

#

He’s way too big for his base

summer mural
#

thats the best looking ive ever seen belakor

#

makes me respect him again

#

just for a brief moment

arctic talon
#

He’s the GOAT in 40k

#

And AoS

#

Rather then in whfb him being the everchosens whipping boy

summer mural
#

well in fantasy hes pretty much bound as a perma shadow

#

cant really manifest himself very well

arctic talon
#

Yeah

#

Which is lame

#

Well

#

Sorta

summer mural
#

it is

arctic talon
#

He does cool stuff sometimes but it’s lame 99% of the time

summer mural
#

since he just malds for eternity pretty much

arctic talon
#

Which is why he’s so much cooler in AoS and 40k

#

Because he actually does stuff

summer mural
#

I dunno what he does in aos, 40k hes got much more agency than fantasy yeah

queen laurel
wintry scarab
#

Do dark angel 1st company only serve as terminators and bladeguard?

arctic talon
arctic talon
#

Though terminators are still preferred

#

He’s also got his own massive spy network thing going on

summer mural
wintry scarab
arctic talon
#

Tbh

#

But yeah

summer mural
#

also I thought abraxia's horns were part of her helmet, turns out thats not true KEKW_ogryn

arctic talon
#

She’s a little mutated up

queen laurel
summer mural
#

I never get sick of looking at varanguard

#

every time I see it, its just so much detail

arctic talon
#

I love varguard so much

#

Such a cool unit

summer mural
#

those mutant horses are great too

queen laurel
#

They have cool monsters and i need

#

LORE

wintry scarab
#

Also, anyone else feel like this thing being called a Pyreblaster is a goofy sounding name? Something like pyregun or pyre flamer just sounds so much less goofy.

summer mural
#

holy fuck

#

i have never seen that model before somehow

#

sooooooo gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

#

I love the chains he has instead of reins

#

and his lil flags

queen laurel
#

Aos models are

#

Cooking

arctic talon
#

It’s a very whatever name

queen laurel
#

Yeah this is the same setting that calls laser guns lasguns

#

And gravity guns

#

Gravguns

arctic talon
#

A flamer on meth being called a pyreblaster fits

#

Tbh

storm jungle
#

primaris equipment titleing is so garbage

wintry scarab
#

idk, maybe its just because i instantly associate "blaster" with starwars, and star wars tends to be a lot more goofy.

storm jungle
#

I mean

#

star wars weapons just have serial designations

#

40k ones always get some goofy ass comic book name

#

at least imperial ones lol

#

Finding the term "blaster" goofy is like finding the term "firearm" silly

queen laurel
wintry scarab
#

Also, i think lasgun is just enough of goofy. I like it 🙂

summer mural
#

eviscerator is cool

#

in general I like the idea of 2 handed chainsword

primal halo
#

Guys, what source of dis pic? I wanna find it in a better quality

rose thorn
#

oof talk about ancient lore

#

ye let me get it

arctic talon
#

Should be the realms of chaos book

vagrant fox
#

It's from uh, Hordes of Chaos?

primal halo
#

Ty guys

vagrant fox
#

Isn't it from this one

raven stone
hallow basin
#

Yes.

arctic talon
#

The cultists even speak it

raven stone
#

Nice.
Time to play on sedition and corrupt my mind to see what all the runes say.

arctic talon
#

Well

#

Some of them

arctic talon
#

If you stare at the chaos runes long enough you should get corruption lol

raven stone
#

Then again, considering I am a single person trying to find someone...
Being corrupted by Nurgle is the last thing I want lol

#

I shall continue the blessed ignorance of heretic purging

opaque coyote
#

Honestly looks sick

rose thorn
#

i know its used in aos

#

i asssume 40k too

storm jungle
#

Yeah its used in 40k

rose thorn
#

want to play a warhammer 40k tabletop rpg campaign
theres no furry races
have no one to play the campaign

storm jungle
#

excuse me WHAT

hallow basin
rose thorn
#

i dont recongnize felinids

hallow basin
#

damn

rose thorn
#

as a valid species

raven stone
rose thorn
#

half of my friends are furries, im not a furry

#

i got AOS campaigns thanks to seraphon and alot of scattered lroe things

rose thorn
#

the 40k struggle is real

storm jungle
#

40k is literally a nazi utopia

rose thorn
raven stone
storm jungle
#

so not a lot of deviation is allowed

raven stone
#

Only ability and ambition matters.

rose thorn
#

my next camapign is a dawnbringer camapign :3

rose thorn
hallow basin
#

But if it's such a pain point, then it's fair I guess

raven stone
#

A Rogue Trader campaign can completely avoid “stupid lawful” Imperial areas.

rose thorn
#

its pain in the ass

raven stone
#

That’s the beauty of Rogue Trader. I heard of a campaign where everyone in a Rogue Trader campaign just …. Went to find Space Whales to ride.

raven stone
#

You would be easily as considerate anywhere else.

arctic talon
#

I was playing as the most confused Kroot ever for that one

sacred ginkgo
#

What did you have to do to find it

arctic talon
raven stone
#

@rose thorn ok and just tossing this out here, if you really want to.
You can actually fully run a Rogue Trader camping based on being a separatist empire from the Imperium
(No really the tabletop RPG has rules supporting such a class.)
And no, you don’t automatically start worshipping Chaos either.

arctic talon
#

And then it turned out that the agri world was in a civil war

arctic talon
#

Which is why the shipments of amsec had stopped

#

What a campaign that was

#

Fun time being a Kroot stuck searching through paper work

sacred ginkgo
#

Well hey you stopped a civil war for a bottle of wine nice job

hallow basin
arctic talon
#

It was good wine

#

According to the rogue trader and other party members, my kroot did not partake as they’re on that 100% meat diet/hj

rose thorn
#

locking out a third of all factions to interact with and half of the lore so your friend can be a furry and have to be considered by everyone as an inferior subspecies who have can only be redeemed by extermination isnt great

sacred ginkgo
rose thorn
#

im not european

arctic talon
rose thorn
arctic talon
#

If I eat enough scribes do I get better at searching through papers

sacred ginkgo
languid meadow
#

Exploits
Funny bugs
Abominations
Yeah Oblivion is back

rose thorn
#

and just to be exterminated 99% of the time

languid meadow
#

you should just eat people who disagree with you

arctic talon
#

I did in fact shoot and eat someone who was being rude

#

To my Boss

sacred ginkgo
arctic talon
#

The people were a lot more polite after I finished my meal

raven stone
arctic talon
#

I spent most of the campaign eating orks and gangers 💀

raven stone
#

And I won’t bat an eyelid.
Nobody should, even. It’s your campaign.

#

Anyone else saying “oh you are being infidelity to the lore” are just plain old assholes with too much time and too little to worry about.

rose thorn
#

its gonna just be ebtter to do it in aos

raven stone
#

Maybe I am underestimating the time it takes to write a good campaign, but just at a glance, I do feel even with the considerations you stated, you can make a RT campaign work.

arctic talon
#

You can, but Mag just might not want to run 40k

raven stone
#

Ok fair enough:p

arctic talon
#

Lol

rose thorn
#

making all of the exceptions and avoiding all the things to make it work just isnt wroth the effort lmao

arctic talon
#

My group is fine with whatever tbh

#

Well

#

Almost whatever

#

Lol

sacred ginkgo
#

What makes this notable exception

arctic talon
#

I just give them a list of content warning and if they’re fine with it

#

That’s a go ahead

raven stone
#

I mean, Frontier Worlds are outright stated to be happy to trade with Xenos and don’t care about Mutants overall.

arctic talon
tough haven
rose thorn
#

also i hate god complex campaigns lmao

raven stone
#

So just have nothing but Frontier Worlds.

arctic talon
rose thorn
#

i dont play in my partners campaigns, she was telling me a story where her players got upset witha quest and mrudered evreyone in the village

tough haven
arctic talon
#

That’s just being evil

#

Lol

raven stone
#

…yea ok I got nothing there beyond “you know, fighting Chaos pirates isn’t necessarily being as powerful as a god”

rose thorn
#

and how they skinned an old lady because they were trying to charge rent

#

in my campaign

tough haven
arctic talon
#

I think the players might be the issue

arctic talon
#

I’m not going to lie

tough haven
#

There’s ways around that

rose thorn
#

lmao

arctic talon
#

I’m only half joking

#

But like

rose thorn
#

yeah i had a talk

arctic talon
#

Are they just playing as evil characters lol?

#

Because if they are then nvm that tracks

rose thorn
tough haven
#

Not to mention the option of just saying “you can’t do this or I’m kicking you out?

arctic talon
#

Ok

#

So they’re just being weird

#

Lol

tough haven
#

If they’re playing evil then that’s based

#

Tell them if they don’t change their actions they become antagonists

arctic talon
#

Running a lawful evil character in a party full of neutral and good characters

tough haven
#

And you’ll send a different “party” of npcs after them

arctic talon
#

Always funny when that happens in a campaign

rose thorn
#

everyoen wasnt interested in the campaign anymore and all say they kinda got lost so its fine lmao

arctic talon
#

Lol

rose thorn
#

i ended the campaign

tough haven
#

And hit them with the same broken annoying shit players would run

arctic talon
#

Who wants to become a Lord

sacred ginkgo
#

Almost called it

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

And doesn’t care what she did on the way for it

sacred ginkgo
#

I got as far as paladin

arctic talon
#

Well within DM reason

rose thorn
#

when taht shit happnes it causes camapigns to crash into a wall

arctic talon
#

Anyways did you know the towns people don’t like it

tough haven
#

Btw @rose thorn that kind of morally bankrupt shit fits 40K perfectly

arctic talon
#

When you kill a bunch of bandits

#

And nail their bodies to a wall

#

Crazy

#

I’m HELPING them

arctic talon
#

Can’t they see that

#

They’re so ungrateful

rose thorn
#

i dont wanna be the perosn hosting a 40k camapign anyway

tough haven
#

I killed the bandits bro

#

They broke the law

#

Therefore I broke them

arctic talon
#

I’ve only played like 3 evil characters in dnd tbh

#

That oath of conquest paladin

#

A warlock who was way too into their devil patron

sacred ginkgo
#

I might be playing a bad neutral character soonish

crystal forum
#

i have not played dnd but i'm mentally capable enough to know how not to ruin a DM's plot line at least

arctic talon
#

And a Paladin of Shar in 3.5e

rose thorn
#

i usually make my chracters morally in the middle nad let the party push them in a direction, or be the polar opposite of the rest of the aprt y

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Though that one doesn’t count

crystal forum
#

it's like improv, you dont halt the train you only add to it

arctic talon
#

Because the whole party was evil

#

But the other 2 were funny

#

Because everyone else wasn’t evil

#

And my character was self obsessed and power hungry

#

Was fun to RP

crystal forum
#

could just rob unimportant characters

#

not cause a war between the party and the factions or something

arctic talon
#

Oath of conquest is just evil lol, the tenets are evil, you are just horrible

tough haven
#

“Has that EVER happened?”

arctic talon
tough haven
#

“No, because I’m doing a good job”

arctic talon
#

Anyways she never became a noble like she wanted to

crystal forum
# arctic talon

ngl following these to the letter sounds like an awful way to RP

arctic talon
#

She just ended up making a mercenary company

arctic talon
#

But they’re def guidelines

tough haven
arctic talon
#

For your character to be inspired by

#

Your character should fulfill the oaths tenets

tough haven
#

No cloak, all dagger

arctic talon
#

But you don’t need to play stupid ball lol

crystal forum
#

conquest? worm?

sacred ginkgo
#

Following any paladin oath to the letter is bad

crystal forum
#

can you roleplay as conquest

arctic talon
#

I mean

#

Yeah?

crystal forum
#

super tough but also extremely lonely

arctic talon
#

Conquest is a psychopathic murder hobo

sacred ginkgo
#

Just prepare to have your shit tossed around

#

Because you aren’t a demigod

arctic talon
#

Yeah

tough haven
#

Bro three days of asking for a game of killteam on TTS in the only two servers relate to that I could find, and not a soul has answered me, there’s gotta be a better way to do this

rose thorn
#

god i wanan buy liek 3 imperial knights lmao

crystal forum
#

because you still lose

rose thorn
#

i should jsut ebay them

arctic talon
#

But yeah that Paladin was interesting, I had a thing with our Druid player where they hated each other to an extreme degree lol

crystal forum
arctic talon
#

So they just refused to heal each other

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Nah it adds to him

#

It makes him even more terrifying lol

tough haven
#

40K but where I don’t have to buy or assemble or paint

crystal forum
#

oh i was missing a lot of context in many discussions on this channel

tough haven
#

I can just play the goddamn game

sacred ginkgo
arctic talon
#

Dnd alignment chart honestly ultimately kind of sucks ass lol

#

Alignment in general

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Kind of sucks

crystal forum
#

the only people i see hating the show are people who want it to be more one dimensional and boring

arctic talon
#

He doesn’t think there’s anything ultimately wrong

#

With what he’s doing

sacred ginkgo
arctic talon
#

And he doesn’t understand why people think he’s you know

#

Crazy

tough haven
sacred ginkgo
#

(Except for when there are hard rules about it)

arctic talon
arctic talon
crystal forum
#

personally i think those guidelines are for people who can't roleplay very well or are new to it

arctic talon
#

For alignment?

tough haven
#

Which is good, just shouldn’t be hard rules

arctic talon
#

Alignment works fine as a quick identifier for the general “vibes” of a character

sacred ginkgo
#

It helps describe you to others or for your dm to throw at you when you start running off from it suddenly

arctic talon
#

That’s all I really go with it tbh

tough haven
arctic talon
#

They can

#

Alignment can change lol

sacred ginkgo
#

Suddenly

tough haven
arctic talon
sacred ginkgo
#

Like wanting to kill surrendering creatures as neutral good for no reason

crystal forum
#

making a new character is bound to be close to the bare bones aligment but like a character can change and become more complex over time

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

Alignment is ultimately an approximation

#

Of your characters personality, motivation, Ect.

tough haven
#

@arctic talon you know how I can find online matches of killteam?

arctic talon
#

Lemme dm it

sacred ginkgo
tough haven
#

Pretty sure I’m in both

arctic talon
#

Oh you are

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Lol

#

Rip

#

Yeah idfk then

tough haven
#

And in the tts server there’s 3 people with the killteam role 💀

crystal forum
#

can i get a link to the tts 40k server

crystal forum
crystal forum
#

wow that's fucking huge

tough haven
#

Yup

#

Not a soul playing killteam though

#

I’d play 40K like I have in the past but it just takes so fucking long

arctic talon
#

Anyways uh, play Lancer or something

tough haven
#

It’s fun, but damn

arctic talon
#

I’ll shill lancer until I die

tough haven
#

But I’ll come to you when I do

arctic talon
#

Yeah don’t do that to yourself lol

#

Do not learn 3 at once

#

If you’ve played dnd 4e before

tough haven
arctic talon
#

Lancer is decently familiar

rose thorn
#

man whens the imperial knight killteam releasing (shitpost)

arctic talon
arctic talon
tough haven
#

40K is like 3 hours usually

#

5 if it’s a “gotta measure all my movement optimally” mf

arctic talon
#

I usually finish comp games in 2 hours or less for 40k

#

But I play fast

#

And I use a chess clock for myself lol

rose thorn
tough haven
#

I’m like “fuck it” and just play

rose thorn
#

i dont want them to get models

arctic talon
#

If I’m doing beers and pretzels it’s gona be way longer though

rose thorn
#

becuase then theyw ill replace a knight in every imperial kngiht box

arctic talon
#

Lol

#

I love Lancer’s Mech design language so much

rose thorn
#

instead of getting, 2 big knights, we would get 1 big knight 2 armingers and 2 units of men at arms

rose thorn
arctic talon
#

Each of the manufacturers feel distinct

rose thorn
#

i think the northstar red is too orange

#

but besides that 1000%

arctic talon
#

The “working man’s” company so to speak

#

Ignore the fact they’re Space Amazon

rose thorn
#

its a bit to osimilar color as harrison's orange

#

in my opinion

arctic talon
#

Fair

#

But the colors are ultimately the secondary part of the design since it’s paint at the end of the day for me personally

#

Pilots can paint it however they want

rose thorn
#

fair

#

what the hell is black desert?

arctic talon
#

Wdym

#

Like the mmo?

rose thorn
#

yeah

#

eveyr tim ei scroll steam it slike

#

.99 cents

#

and eveyr month i hear about black desert's new game

arctic talon
#

It’s like

#

A pretty normal Korean mmo

rose thorn
#

OHHH

arctic talon
#

It’s less p2w then like

#

Some of the stereotypical ones

#

But it’s an ARPG mmo thingy

sacred ginkgo
opaque coyote
#

(lmao)

#

Would fit as Daemon Machines in 40k

sacred ginkgo
#

They are full of paracausal bastardry

opaque coyote
#

(I mean they decided to name the faction Horus ffs)

arctic talon
#

Quite a few of them violate causality

#

Lol

#

Or physics

#

Or time

sacred ginkgo
#

The gun that doesn’t exist

arctic talon
#

The Lich can make you undie

sacred ginkgo
#

The tardis mech

arctic talon
#

As in you did die

#

But actually you didn’t

opaque coyote
sacred ginkgo
#

“Hurl into the Duat”

opaque coyote
#

Some type of Quantum Uncertainty type shit?

arctic talon
opaque coyote
#

Schrodinger

arctic talon
#

Except that never happened

#

You’re safe and sound

#

Ignore the fact you felt yourself bleeding out

#

You never died

sacred ginkgo
#

Something is wrong

#

Something is wrong

arctic talon
#

The Lich is a frame from 10,000 years in the future

sacred ginkgo
#

Something is wrong

arctic talon
#

That’s not a joke, it time traveled back

opaque coyote
arctic talon
#

I mean to an extent yeah

opaque coyote
#

...

#

Yeah this sounds like something an internet troll would do

#

"You died, but not really."

arctic talon
#

I mean

opaque coyote
#

"But you also did."

arctic talon
#

HORUS didn’t make Lich

#

Or at least

#

They haven’t yet

#

But they have

#

Since it exists

opaque coyote
#

So does it work by like

Separating timelines into one where you died and one where you didn't

#

Or is it a schrodinger type thing

#

Or is there no explanation

arctic talon
#

No explanation

opaque coyote
#

The Lich just decided to give you a kinda death for shits and giggles

arctic talon
#

The lore for the Lich is

#

Mostly someone going crazy

#

Or the NHP talking to you

opaque coyote
arctic talon
#

Lemme grab some quotes

opaque coyote
# arctic talon

Honestly, it sounds like a quantum uncertainty type thing.

And considering that it was made by them thousands of years into the future

#

It could essentially be sent literally as a prank to the past

rose thorn
#

FUCKING

#

WHO??????

plush mason

rose thorn
#

celest dome

Reasons

plush mason
crystal forum
#

like people dont even know what cypher is up to, what would he even be forgiven for

celest dome

Forgive Magnus, or Cypher.
Do Amy of the other and you might just get changed to the worst for thinking you have the power to forgive them

plush mason
#

i always forget Vect isnt his first name lol

crystal forum
#

who else should be forgiven now

#

think of names

#

i think creed since he's kind of considered a failure i think

plush mason
#

all of Cadia is

crystal forum
#

they would really like to be forgiven since it's bullshit to hold anything against them for that

arctic talon
#

Creed is considered a failure in universe to an extent yeah lol

#

Idk

#

Eldrad

#

He’s got a lot on his consciousness lol

crystal forum
#

that inquisitor who nuked planets to stop the nids

plush mason
#

Kharn, for got killing Erebus when he had the chance

crystal forum
#

but i think he's too obscure for one of these things

crystal forum
#

wouldn't that be really fucking funny

plush mason
#

no he cant be forgiven

crystal forum
#

what about lorgar

plush mason
#

eh he was the only that ratted Erebus out to Kharn so maybe

crystal forum
#

maybe forgiven specifically for the worshiping E thing

#

but that's HH lore which is not the focus of the question i thinj

#

even though emperor being there will inevitably bring in HH lore...

storm jungle
#

THAT IS JUST A GENERIC ARCHON

#

VECT HASNT HAD AN OFFICIAL ARTWORK SINCE THE FIRST DARK ELDAR CODEX

arctic talon
#

Poor vect

arctic talon
plush mason
#

arctic talon
#

Kabalite

#

Wych armor is more revealing and asymmetrical

plush mason
#

arctic talon
#

Choice of weapons is dif but that’s bcs lore != tabletop

plush mason
#

coders are always lazy smfh

plush mason
#

btw, do we have any info on how one becomes a hemonculous?

arctic talon
#

Yes

#

You get taught by one as a wrack

#

Get created as a successor

#

Or like

#

You just learn it yourself

plush mason
#

so they can ether take a random drukhari off the streets, said rando and learn it themselves somehow or they just can just say fuck it and make a successor

#

aside from learning to fleshcraft yourself thats about what i was expecting

thats just a star wars character
