Well, they are still there
but yeah game balance is the one thing that puts me off 40k. 30k is supposed to be much better for that though...
3 of them had been petrified by a particularly vicious cockatrice, and the surviving bard had one last hail mary shot. He whips out his lute or lyre or whatever and
Shatter.
The cockatrice survived the spell, which wasn't great, but the spell also sonically pulverized the 3 petrified party members and killed the hell out of them, and brought the dirt and stone burrow they had ventured into down on the bard's head.
it was barely even a side quest, just a couple of dumb villagers needed some pest control, now they have some folklore I guess
"oh nobody goes up to Partykill Hill, 's haunted or something"
I think Argonians have a good amount of feathers
but I REALLY like kobolds being lizardy and stuff (even though they're such a widely interpreted fantasy species)
cutebolds are also p. great

just like "haha look at this sweet widdle lizard baby" and then there's 30 of them
Yup. Rules are by forgeworld so everything tends to be a lot fluffier. And you get access to completely insane old tech + forgeworld stuff so you can be running around with sicarian battletanks and ground transports that can carry 4 dreadnoughts and actually field primarchs and its nuts.
Oh. Forgeworld. Right.
Now I am remembering that I have all of the Imperial Armour rule books up through my signed copies of the big WW1 themed three book campaign series they did.
Wanted to ask if the 1 development card / round thing is in addition to placing a disc to take a regular action, where the card itself doesn't take a disc, or instead of regardless of the cost.
Months ago I took a simple job - drop off a shipment of water at one town and return with a shipment of guns. Due to some bad rolls I was immediately kidnapped. Since then I've been imprisoned, conscripted into a foreign army, forced to fight monsters, kidnapped again, stranded in the desert, and briefly disappeared from this plane of reality. So much has happened that the GM forgot about the original job, but not Niro - he's been making contacts, manipulating his captors, and working every angle he can think of to get his truck where it needs to go.
Yesterday, three months after taking what should have been a simple one-session delivery job, Niro finally rolled back into town with the shipment of guns. Perfect track record maintained.
There's literally no codex writer at GW who has not produced something hideously un-balanced
Cruddace wrote that bullshit Guard codex which gave rise to the Leaf Blower list but yeah in general they are the main offenders.
Though Ward is the worst out of the two. Fucking mech grey knights...
I'd say 90% of CAH games I've played , I've had to explain that one.
Hey kobold thread what's up?
Lizard kobolds are the best! But I also like crest feathers on them because painting hair-like stuff is fun.
I think I vaguely remember an anime or something where there were "kobolds" I thought were clever that were basically scottish terrier gnomes
I don't know about scottish terrier gnomes (there are probably more than one anime with kobolds in them) but might you possibly be thinking of Record of Lodoss War? Anime was originally based on a D&D session/novel/"Replay" and in it kobolds looked like this:
Japanese (canid) and modern D&D (lizard) are pretty disconnected from the traditional.
I...
30...
What?
Like Imperial Armour but basically Heresy-era units and that
I'm a big fan of the Fey Corgi taking up that mantle

I don't want to sidetrack into anime trying to figure out what show it was, but those are clearly some goddamn gnolls japan, come ON.
Playing warhammer 40k but back when the emperor was still alive and primarchs still roamed the universe, right after horus turns traitor and everything goes to shit.
This is one of my favorite haunts
Post match had some really interesting results, his black ork and my blitzer got MVP and both of us had enough points to get a new skill. He rolled doubles for his black ork, I rolled a 12, so now I've got a 4 strength blitzer. So I've got the most powerful single player in the entire league most likely. But just to show that nuffle giveth and nuffle taketh, I earned a grant total of 10,000 for the match, while my opponent earned 80,000 (6 + he had over double the amount of fans attending than I did.)
Blood Bowl is back, and it's great.
Ballista having a actual goddamn real playbook is going to be amazing.

Beforehand I'd have the layout of the dungeon set up and then give the Monster Players an amount of creatures that would be a correct challenge rating for their zones in the dungeon. Then I tell the players that they've heard about this place and that roughly X monsters are inside. Then they have some time to plan and I DM like normal, while keeping an eye on Roll20 chat to see what the monsters want and are rolling. Too much? I'd almost need a Co-DM for that.
If you've still got it I've been meaning to buy that and would love a discount.
Gnolls
they're pretty much a D&D creation (based very vaguely on a made-up creature from a 1912 short story)
over the years they've become very specifically Hyena-people and that's neato
1. Harpy eagle
2. Bearded vulture
3. Steller's sea eagle
That is all.
