GW raising prices, AGAIN. Anonymous 05/15/2024 (Wed) 08:24:34 Id: 92f978 No. 1189 [Reply] >>1982
https://www.warhammer-community.com/2024/05/07/2024-pricing-update/ >The price changes for individual products will vary, but in most countries the average change will be between 3% and 5%.* As an example of what you can expect, a squad of Necron Warriors goes up $2 from $50 to $52, £30 to £31.50, and €40 to €41 (or local currency equivalent). > In Sweden and Norway, the average price change will be between 8% and 14%. Well fuck me for being a Nordic I guess. This was entirely expected but I still want to announce it.

>>1190 Well thankfully for me I don't buy GW anymore. Worst case scenario this will just make the secondary/used market slightly more expensive for me. As for a news thread, I don't want to have one. Considering how small the board is I am not really seeing a reason not to just make a new thread for any and all news. If this place somehow gets big again then we could make a single news thread but not yet.
3D printing/mold creation and re-use will hopefully help against this as time goes on
>>1189 And you flatulen/tg/oyim will lap it up and buy it together with normie parents for their shrieking kids

>Guy orders new magic cards. >Gets sent some unreleased cards instead >WoTC decides to send thugs to his house >They threaten with 200k fines and a decade in prison if they dont hand over the cards. >He complies despite them not having a warrant. Bit of old news at this point but recently we did find out that apparently hasbro had already been using pinkertons quite a few times already. Kinda weird nobody had made a big stink about it already.

3d printing thread Anonymous 12/21/2022 (Wed) 05:03:43 Id: c60fcd No. 555 [Reply]
couldn't help but notice there was no 3d printing thread share your prints painted or naked share some model files, try to keep links that haven't been axed by GW a secret, but feel free to share free files or deceased files

>>1902 If the file is supported you literally do just click print (slice in this case) and then put it on a thumbdrive or sd card to put into the printer, select that file and then press "start" The slicing program will be available at your work and the nerd place. If it isn't supported, you click "generate supports" in that slicing program before you click "slice". Lychee (free slicing program) does veey reliable automatic supports.

Creating new OC for the board. Anonymous 04/17/2025 (Thu) 04:15:49 Id: ce7d79 No. 1353 [Reply]
I don't believe this place will get enough traffic to see any kind of /tg/ revival, but on the rare chance it does, I'd like to discuss how we can create new OC for the board. Game systems, settings, whatever. There are two main issues that plagued 4chan's /tg/. One was worldbuilding without any real order or goal to work towards. Second was faggots like Neckbeardia poaching content to resell or exploit. The first one has a clear, but not easy, solution. If you are serious about creating something, then the you should take a leadership position and decide which contributions from other posters to incorporate into it. If someone is just throwing out vague trivia like 'The elves in this setting eat gold and hate raspberries', then you should just ignore that poster as a noncontributor. The second problem admittedly is a much worse one and I'm not sure what to do about it. Neckbeardia was able to slightly rebrand Nightshift and got a Kickstarter for it to the tune of 25k British pounds. I've had two ideas in this regard: >1. Works are published with a Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license, thereby preventing fags from taking OC and reselling it >2. Establishing a brand or group on places like Drivethrurpg that exists to publish OC strictly under a free noncommerical license (call it AnonWorks or something like that) Then again, the second thing might not be an issue if content poachers never bother coming here. What do you all think?

>>1752 >>1761 Yeah I was talking about 2d4chan, I was retarded, when posting. >>1661 All of that sounds pretty neat, classical fantasy like from 3ed, do you think you can expand on the wizard? Maybe try to flesh him out, add some details on top and tie him into the core idea of adventure? Also as direct feedback, I like the idea of creating avatar for infesting people's dreams, which would nicely mesh with incubus as patron for Warlock, but that's my pov. Also I was thinking about intermission between "the Cursed Town" and the Wizard Tower" and came up with idea of Husks: >Locals, such as foresters, hunters and others who decided to live in wilderness >First to afflicted with curse >Once curse started in town, they left behind in their forest dwellings >With all emotions and vital power drained from them, they become husks >Mushrooms sprouted from their flesh and animated them >Unintended side effect of curse turned them into monstrous guardians Here I thought, that they should be somewhat rare and pretty tanky, maybe give them unique flavors: >Husk that releases spore clouds capable of causing paralysis with DC 13 for character to becoming (limited use, let's call it 3/day) >Husk that grows Violet Fungus from their torso, so it has multi-attack and player can decide to attack violet fungus growth specifically (with bumped AC)

>>1821 >Incubus patron warlock Let's roll with that. >Which leads me to question, if curse can be broken and you can save townsfolk, could you save and restore these monsters? Maybe not the mook types, but introduce some NPC that retains parts of humanity, but is not fully in control of their actions, however, it could be safed/appeased, maybe bypassed by some extra action requiring preparation from players? I think that could be possible, maybe by trying to find a good source of anti-fungal medication of sorts... perhaps our cleric NPC is starting to work on a cure or something, and with the help of the players she can work out a solution? For more abilities relating to the mushroom flavor, maybe there is a husk that can reach into the ground as a bonus action, and for the turn it activates that ability, it can spend movement on the turn not to move but to turn 4 squares within 120 ft. per 5 ft. spend into difficult terrain by making sharp mushrooms spout on the ground? I do agree they should take a fair bit of punishment assuming they have few other abilities. But I should see what others in the thread say first, since I think they should contribute ideas too.

Online Tabletop Campaigns Anonymous 02/04/2021 (Thu) 06:20:18 No. 309 [Reply] >>1402
If you guys wanted to play online, how would you go about it?
19 posts omitted.
Get Foundry, it's an upfront cost but it's the superior choice. If you don't have money then just use whatever group call software you have and stream mspaint on it. Handle all paperwork on your own using PDFs and physical dice. Optionally use Roll20 because it's free, it's also shit but it's hard to beat free. Virtual tabletops are mostly a gimmick, if you play with people who aren't shitheels you can solve all problems with a group call.

>>1333 Rolz.org is another good roll20 alternative.

Awful models Anonymous 02/25/2024 (Sun) 18:55:44 Id: 00cdce No. 1160 [Reply] >>1692 >>1746
I hate this fucking model. The taurox is an awful model and I hate looking at it. It is even more infuriating because it can look good. The stupid segmented treads can just be replaced with wheels and it looks so much better. Even just replacing the front wheels and making it a half track makes it look good. Why did they make it like this?
1 post and 1 image omitted.
The treaded version looks like the offspring of a humvee and a tank
>>1160 Because wheels don’t fit the imperial 40k aesthetic. Atleast according to GW.
>>1160 i think it would work better if the tread assemblies themselves didn't look so bad and tacked-on, but yeah it's pretty lumsy as is >Why did they make it like this? i bet they thought it looked too 'normal' otherwise

Dual Lands Anonymous 04/19/2025 (Sat) 16:06:14 Id: 77c3ac No. 1687 [Reply] >>1705
I think I'm just going to start printing proxies of cards on the reserved list and handing them out willy nilly to local players so people will stop crybabying that it's "unfair" that somebody proxied a $800 land that's only $800 because of artificial scarcity, when they could just as easily have printed one for themself too for a couple of cents. Like FINE bitch, here I did it myself FOR you. Swap out a Woodland Stream and let's rumble. >hurr durr printing hurts the game, printing is illegal They're on the reserved list WotC literally cannot sell them any more, they're losing not only zero dollars but zero hypothetical future dollars. And they spelled out they were fine with proxying back in 2016, as long as it's not at official tournaments and you're not trying to sell them as real cards. Nobody is going to confuse a Taiga with a minecraft fox eating berries in the art as a real-ass card. Well, okay I suppose that is more plausible these days than it once was, but whatever I can replace the oval/acorn with a dickbutt or something too, it's not that hard to make it obviously a proxy to a potential buyer.
>>1687 A lot of stupid ranting and raving just to say "I want to start selling proxies"
>>1705 Not selling. Giving away. For free. To shut people up that complain about them being "unfair."

Would /tg/ like to help build and playtest an RPG? Anonymous 01/23/2023 (Mon) 05:39:29 Id: 9d9689 No. 576 [Reply]
I've been working on a proper tabletop RPG system on and off for the past three years or so. It has a name, a world, about a 70% complete engine, and a lot of story behind it. I've thought about bringing it to the boards (and even considered making a rules-lite version tailored for play by post on imageboards) several times but have not. If anons are interested, I'll start making regular posts in this thread, dropping excerpts from my design docs, and discussing the methods and philosophies for all the systems so anons can tear it a new asshole and maybe have a good time with it. The very general breakdown: >Single world, non-multiverse >D6 based >Skill based >Classes included but optional >Group initiative >Simultaneous turns >3-6 players >Customizable mecha subsystem It's named Aion, after the world of the setting.

Is chess a wargame? Anonymous 10/06/2023 (Fri) 21:01:55 Id: a164cd No. 1046 [Reply] >>1442
A very simple question. Does chess technically count as a wargame? I think it does, Its not like any other wargame but you do have 2 armies facing off against each other, only instead of controlling territory or wiping the other guy out you are just supposed to kill the king. I think it counts.
9 posts omitted.
>>1046 Yes. Animu fan art people have lately taken to making a joke about it being a straight shota harem type production. The queens are the strongest pieces and the only to women on the board. King, knights, bishops, rooks and pawns are all shotas.
>>1172 I usually see it more as each piece representing a group of units. -Kings can't move much because they're taking with them the core of the kingdom -Queens have their own private armies and lands, with incredibly adept soldiers, from before marriage, but ascended with royal taxes (that's why Pawns can become concubines) -Rooks are strongholds and their movement represents their strategic reach -Bishops counterbalance Rooks, representing how religion spreads influence differently from warfare -Knights are errant groups of war-loving nobles -Pawns are lower nobility suicidally charging their armies, trying to make a name for themselves and marry a daughter into higher royalty But then again, I don't even know how to play besides knowing how the pieces move.

Reborn edition This is a thread for talking about plastic models and gunpla, instead of miniatures. Rules: Don't be too offtopic. Don't be an asshole Thread question: What was your first kit, and why did you start the hobby? This is a WIP header, if anyone coming from 4chan has an archive or screenshot of the /m/ plamo threads, please share it, I'd like to add the resources from there. And if anyone has suggestions for future threads, share them too, will be a good way to improve it.

Simulations like Chaotic recode and Yugioh Pro may count as well since they're technically video games. Video Related is Open Batoru, a card game simulator for a Japanese card game called Wixoss.
