Another nerd on the net. I run roleplaying games as a game master, love boardgames, and discussing film and television! Happy to discuss and brainstorm!

I use https://game-icons.net/ for many of my game assets!
Spears, arrows and bows. Pointy stuff!

They maintain a hidden underground shrine, dedicated to a woman of antiquity. They did not make the shrine, but they keep it clean and burn incense there regularly.

The Dark Eldar had just been released when I first started playing 40k so they were lore light last I remember.

So which faction(s) would you want to start a new major event in 40k history?

By the Omnisiah!

That is a choice for sure 😀

A lovely choice, but if you tire of wretchdom, there is allways hobby over-fixation!

I know I set up more ttrpg campaigns than I could handle when I was in a similar situation, got very close to some 'Cones of Dunshire' moments.

I believe that is called "sweat equity"

Honestly I want to hear a breakdown of the outfits like they were skins for a league character....

But If I keep them elsewhere, it will be more of a mystery, and give me a chance to ramp up the danger as they fight another chunk of the undead.

Either way the second stage is trying to stop the undead from reaching the cemetery!

They have three different fires to respond to, and they are purposely not near each other giving me some breathing room to have wherever they don't go be as big of a problem as I need it to be.

If they meet the main undead first, the PCs may try to Leeroy Jenkins them, but it establishes stakes.

This is part of the inciting act of my game, the goal is to get the players into conflict with a sentient undead, who is going to monologue about the "Sidereal Conspiracy" while trying to get an undead horde going.

Currently trying to figure out how quick I should ramp things up.

I tend toward the idea that beam weapons are for softer scifi, and projectiles for harder scifi.

I had to leave that subreddit for that exact reason, everything useful about it left under a wave of arguing and trend chasing.

I would love a full break from D&D, but I've found when I try to bring people into the hobby, they either are only interested in the big name, or they don't want to explore options until they have played "the original"

I never got into pathfinder. I began with a mishmash of 1e/2e with my dads hand-me-down books. Properly had 3e, and 3.5, really loved 4, but the community hate mixed with just fatigue made me look into other systems. I've played a bunch of PbtA, but moved back to dnd for my group after I moved away.

This looks like the vibe I wish Destiny had/stuck with.

With this group, Dnd. A one shot of 5th, then a campaign in 4e that fell apart for a multitude of reasons. I think Daggerheart strikes a nice balance between having powers and big player specific moves, and narrative choice in how run things. But I need more time for a proper opinion.
