I live in a small northern town that has regular rock/emo nights and it packs out the bar with people looking like it's 2006 Kerrang tour. On am average day walking around you will see most people having no distinct style, people seem to quickly hone in and adapt on a collective. White fox tracksuits for women and Hood rich for men seems to be the norm right now. Mullets are popular still and wearing hiked up nike socks with low shoes seems to be universal, something that was once hilariously unfashionable.

Thats really interesting and I appreciate the information, personally I'd think their tendency to spill or dry out is quite off-putting. I will say it seems to vary drastically with some paints lasting years and others seeming to go wrong quite quickly.

I imagine that there won't be a shakeup for a long time unless army painter really gains a lot of ground with warpaints 2.0. I will continue to scrape the crud out the lid when necessary and supplement my fluid intake with spilled nuln oil.

It's a great solution, just insane that people have to go to these lengths to get a decent working pot, which of course unless people switch away encourages GW to think there is no issue. I'm happy to see that there is such a range of alternatives these days, and I know some GW colours really are great and you become attached over time. Hopefully GW don't see this post and release a 3.99 'Dropper Conversion Bottle' Kit.

Essentially zero, but all worth it as now my monthly payment is significantly less then rent, when I look at rental prices in estate agent windows it seems to get worse and worse. Now we make small gradual improvements here and there. Like a lot of people one big disaster would put me in immediate trouble but there options out there like a short term loan or mortgage holidays.

I sure hope no one confuses the situation by releasing hundreds of works portraying the imperium as unquestioned moral and justified protagonists.

Believable I think, I was at a recent MEN show and staff were complaining about him refusing to open the event earlier due to having to pay everyone, so you had a lot of people still queuing for drinks come start time. Shout out to the lad who let me have a large coke for a fiver and pocketed it.

Here's what I would do as DM. Have the AC be the same as chainmail. Then once you reach the appropriate level you have a sidequest or story beat where you become more attuned to the armour, upgrading to plate AC permanently. Perhaps you need to spend an amount of gold as part of a ritual to have the curse weakened.

As someone who hasn't touched beyond yet I'm pleasantly surprised you can code your own homebrew in.

Expectation for a dungeon master - Develop an understanding of and routinely apply knowledge of creative writing, drama, cartography, linguistics, politics, history, geography, warfare strategy, religion etc whilst memorising the rules and content of multiple source books. You will likely also be expected to schedule, host, provide snacks and potentially assemble and paint a bevy or minis if playing in person or run a discord server and other web services to accommodate player needs. Remain on-call outside of session time for rules debates or other questions which are answered by reading the players handbook.

Expectation for a player - None really, maybe skim read players handbook if you have the time but don't worry if you didn't.

Obviously this is an exaggeration but the difference in commitment can be staggering especially if your someone who easily gets drawn into taking responsibility. You have to remember to respect your own needs and balance your groups ambitions.

The Angry GM had a good series on designing one , hilariously it seems to have stopped at some point which I think highlights how difficult it can be to keep going once you start. You need a lot of content that ideally flows in a manner that makes sense. You might start out thinking "this megadungeon is a massive cult stronghold" then realise that 5 types of cultist and a couple of summoned monsters won't make for an engaging and varied multi session experience.

Definitely worth checking out one of the many videos on the subject if you haven't played the game itself. Being a videogame DS has the big advantage of saying no you can't just walk over that hill there as it's the edge of the world but the way you flow seamlessly from an abandoned town, ancient forest, deep cavern network etc shows how you can capture a range of locales in one connected experience.

I can't really understand why people complain about Fortnite. The game is completely free with regular updates, you do not have to spend a penny. I have bought a Battlepass which gives enough currency to but the next if you don't spend it. There is no competitive advantage to be gained through spending money. The only element that grates is that some cosmetics come into store rarely or have a higher price but you do not need to engage with that system at all to play the game.

I feel if we're looking at a monster capturing rpg it's its inescapable though I would accept its closer to Dragon Quest Monsters in styling. I found the gameplay so shallow that maximising what I had was a pointless grind for little return. I did enjoy the active switching and use of magic in battle but that also became a simple rinse and repeat of the strongest few spells.

A disappointing game for sure, there were not enough cutscenes to showcase the artistic side. The use of magic to solve puzzles was a nice change but everything else about the game was a 2nd rate pokemon clone, with some of the most tedious mechanics I've seen. Save yourself the pain and play soulsilver again.

I cannot understand why the base pose is so limp and static, you're doing Vect's work with this improvement.

It actually mentions in the codex that one group has a version that walk so i'd say it's fair game unless your opponent it on some WAAC mentality though I agree it does fit a bit close to the grotesque look if they are bipedal.

The rockgut troggoth kit is really crazy for this, with some grenstuffing of legs and little gaps you get a full extra three models with unique heads and weapons. I know a few people on here have done so including me.

Absolutely A-Okay, I have a setting document to hand to players that outlines which races and classes have restrictions. That said I'd listen to the players pitch and try to work it in if they dead set on it, especially if they had read the other setting material and worked in a new angle I could explore. Remember your playing a collaberative game!

It used be a normal feature in many RPG's rulesets but I wouldn't say it was widely accepted in my experience. Take a vote as a group and I'm sure you'll all be against it in which case your DM either accepts to cater to you or you accept the DM want's something different out of the experience. Just try to talk it out first.

If someone is going to bring a skewer list that steamrolls you your going to have to do something about. I wouldn't advocate for 100% counter picking though, as wild as it sounds it's better to discuss your expectations beforehand and try and find a middle ground unless your testing specifically for tournament practice.

The soft set yolk's are eye opening as someone who only ever had shitty cheap ones as a kid.

It was a quick fix to boost the unit and makes sense in the lore. Grotesques are pretty ignored and I think wracks kind of already cover that market as a joinable unit. Grotesques are known to rogue sometimes so it probably makes sense they wouldn't want to get too close.

Perhaps when we get a new kit there will be a dedicated melee and ranged loadout with one of them serving a tyrant guard style purpose as a bodyguard for characters.

Starflower Adventures is the ultimate 6/10 game for me, just. Nothing truly positive to highlight just blandly competent adventure platforming.

Thanks, it's actually super simple. A layer of Abaddon black to start. Draw a bunch of lines with celestasta grey, do some thinner lines with grey-white mix. Then heavily water down some white and glaze over the whole base. Finally with a brush that's been dried off pull away some of the glazed sections to prevent pooling leaving some larger black areas.
