How do you manage players that want to play a with character whose mechanic/gimmick is being a synergic duo... But with "another PC" as their goon?
Or in another words a player with "two characters"
Any limitations or specific rules?
Should the DM determine or debuff "the actions" of the other character?
Would you even allow it at your table?

So, a TRIANGLE (3 sides) means 1 inch, a CIRCLE (a dot) represents 2 inches, the SQUARE (4sides) is actually 3 inches, and a PENTAGON (5 sides) is actually 6 inches.
I'm sorry, in the name of all that is Holy, metric and logical, was this designed by the Devil himself or just british people?

It's retarded so that they could argue in court if they saw anyone making third party measurment tools that they were clearly infringing their copyright.
Because no sensible person in their right mind would use those symbols to denote those distances, and therefore they must be copying GW.

That's all it is.
>>
>>92822899
>WTF

Mechanically it adds nothing to the game other than creating a rather bad shorthand method. I don't even think it saves ink on printouts.

Accessibility wise it sort of makes it accessible though the symbols need work. Alot of work. However if they included tools for each symbol with starter boxes it lets anyone pick up a box and play. Though at a minimum an individual needs to be literate to play most games anyway so it's a tough sell/reason.

Product wise it's a way of tricking individuals to buy even more pointless overpriced plastic waste.

Intellectual Property wise it has a minimal impact. I'd be amazed if any 3rd party would be taken to court for making their own tools.

Anon, you seem conused. This isn't a metric vs imperial thread. This is a "numbers represented as geometric shapes vs numbers represented as numbers" thread.

Educate yourself anon, all of those measurements were based of real physical items and have been converted to be derived from universal constants so that they no longer vary with the temperature of a metal stick in a museum and get more accurate as our understanding improves.
The metre was originally intended as 1/10000000 of the distance from the equator to the north pole. A kilogram was based on a litre of water

Metres and kilogram are french inventions, celius is from sweden

NTA but in QE there's two ways I can think of to do it to do it but it requires two charms or perhaps two traits to do Supernatural more than once in a charm.
Supernatural 3 to have a Supernatural 1 effect to last for a scene, then Supernatural again to improve that first charm with Gift Points so that it can be modelled as an actual artefact. Some might want that to be a Supernatural + Paced (in Turns) charm instead, but I think keeping it to a Scene is within the spirit of it.

It really isn't. My game has neither the locations nor the physics of our world; this is done intentionally, because I enjoy fantasy.
>All the races and monsters are mutants
Nope.

No.
>even antediluvian horrors from an earlier, even darker time period
Don't think so.

Normally I'd be eager to engage with a good old hypothetical, but this hypothetical requires me to be a completely different person than I am now, and also requires me to have shit taste, so I think I'll pass.

With the unhelmeted heads, sure. I like that conan circlet bearded guy.

Overall I think vindictors and liberators are too plain. Vanquishers have robes which are cool, Questor Soulsworn have way more details that look just awesome.

Thunderstrike can look cool as fuck but they're afraid to make the basic units too detailed, unlike chaos warriors.

Writing General: 'orcs, ogres and all things evil' (continuation) edition.

Welcome to /wg/, the thread for all /tg/ related writing. Whether you're plotting your campaign, trying to come up with a character backstory, or just trying to write some setting fluff, this is the place to post it. You don't even have a campaign, just an idea you want to develop? You're welcome here. While the rest of /tg/ is arguing over monstergirl mating and which way rivers are supposed to flow, we're here to help you turn your thoughts into an actual finished product.

As the successor to the Storythreads, we're also open to /tg/ related fanfiction (D&D, Warhammer, Battletech, whatever). In fact, if you've written any vaguely /tg/-related short stories, you can try them out here. We also have flash-fiction challenges from time to time.

There's a discord for writers here

Why is it taking you 3 months to finish one adventure?
>>
The most success I had was running my own homemade campaign. I created things as we went but I had some major potential antagonists fleshed out beforehand to help me out. It lasted for 13 months, meeting every other weekend for 3 to 4 hours. We had 9 players. It only ended because they reached a good stopping point and I was feeling limited by the system and their suite of abilities since their characters were so strong at that point. Almost everyone loved the campaign, but funny enough for myself I found I enjoyed the first 4 months so much more than the rest. I'm not sure you guys are missing out on too much with your shorter campaigns.
>>
>>92820860
Legitimate this. I play at a game club and we agreed to rotate games ever 4 months. This help keeping our games fresh and prevents GM burnout as the GM's actually get to play (as a for ever GM this is a big blessing).
An added bonus have been that we can easier integrate new members into a game, and we avoid groups that are to locked in themself by giving them a intervel where they are pushed to intermingle with new players.

Queen's Blade is a famous fanservice anime series, but before that, it was a gamebook system designed for fantasy combat. And those gamebooks are still pretty easy to find online, making it totally possible for us to play a round of it right here on /tg/

I'm going to explain the rules of the game, and then open things up for /tg/ to pick the attacks for our two heroines - add a d20 to your post and I'll take the first legal answers that roll at least a 10.
