So my party spent this session sacking one of the strongest fortresses in the continent, and then seducing the sexed-up vaguely-mediterranean desert people.
They spent like, 30 minutes on the sack itself, and the other 2 1/2 hours doing shit like taking Empresses on fancy dates at strip clubs, torturing people, and FATAL style Penile length/orgy rolls.
The khorne guy critical failed his dingus roll. Figures, we always knew that khornates were overcompensating for something.
[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;44428911]Has anyone here ever watched the movie "Krull?"[/QUOTE]
Yes, what about it?
How can you call yourself a D&D player if you haven't seen Krull.
[QUOTE=Nitrowing;44410193]Still running an Only War game with the players vs orks at the moment and I think they players are having far too much success so far. The party likes to drive everywhere in their heavily armored tank with a mounted inferno cannon on the roof (which can turn rockcrete walls to slag), and when that doesn't work, they send the "beefy-as-fuck" ogryn out to wreck everything left standing with his bare hands (which can, incidentally, peel apart tanks like The Hulk). Suggestions for maximizing player misery?
[U]Things I've tried so far:[/U]
- Orks with rokkit launchers (Run over)
- Nobs with rokkit launchers (Thrown off cliff by Ogryn)
- Rokkit Trukks (Pushed off of same cliff onto aforementioned Nobs)
- Minefield (Dealt some minor damage, but some incredible rolls led to them '[I]Tokyo-drifting[/I]' through the remainder of it)
- Orkish '[I]Train o' Doom[/I]' Battletrain (Rear cannon-carriages decoupled and derailed, caboose and engine pursued by tank on elevated rail system before something like [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81LeooTiKI0&feature=player_detailpage#t=60]this[/url] happened to the train)
- Looted Valkyrie '[I]Fighta/Bomba[/I]' (Led to high-speed chase through metropolitan area before they escaped into the subway system - Somewhat effective)
- Killa Kans (Punted like a football via tank going at "[I]...standard rammin' speed.[/I]")
Save me from my players. They are insane and they read this thread.[/QUOTE]
Easy. Don't make the Orks fight like Orks. A Kommando Squad is dispatched to deal wiv dem lucky gits. Snipers, mines, explosives on the road.
Or, high command calls them in and asks them what the fuck they're doing and makes them guard the latrines for a week.

How can you call YOURSELF a D&D player if you've not seen Yor: Hunter from the Future?
Because I play D&D

But I have. :(
Krull is both the best and the worst
The reason I ask is because I had to watch it for a class, and I'll eventually be presenting on it about how it's a "bad sci-fi movie with a hero's journey theme." So far my impression is that the entire story is cookie-cutter guy must rescue girl, acquires legendary item, gathers party to assist him, long journey, beats bad guy, and happy ending (I assume.)
if you've not watched to the end you missed the over the top retarded horses that go so fast fire come out of their hooves and then they start flying somehow

You had to watch Krull for a Class? Your Class rocks. Despite what I said earlier I love that movie.

At the base of it it is a pretty straight forward "Guy has kingdom/girl, guy loses kingdom/girl, guy must team up with old man, band of misfits, monsters, Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane to rescue girl and defeat giant alien death fortress asteroid filled with aliens that have pikes that fire laser beams by using a magic throwing star"

You forget that in the end the Glaive (VERY misnamed weapon, that shuriken thing) doesn't even beat the final foe. They use the power of LOVE to shoot fire from their hands to kill it.

How could I forget? This is all enhanced by the fact it was a political marriage anyway and they see each other in person maybe 2 or 3 times in the movie.
It's the power of Love At First Sight. 7th level spell.

I just call it the Krull. I'd love to have [URL="https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&hs=Sl8&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&biw=1101&bih=917&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=Krull+glaive&oq=Krull+glaive&gs_l=img.3..0j0i24.1379.6828.0.6898.19.10.4.4.4.2.541.1391.5j2j2j5-1.10.0....0...1c.1.39.img..8.11.640.OCn8TAYEzA8"]one of those[/URL] hanging on the wall for the hell of it.
I made a character once that used it for his main weapon. No one in the group recognized it. :l
Been running a Savage Worlds game for the last 6 weeks. My players are in a world filled with magic powered gang warfare and terrorised by robot zombies. I started them out under a gang leader named Choker, who from the very beginning they wanted to usurp. Weeks pass and everyone is thinking about the moment when they decide "fuck it" shoot Choker and take this game off the rails.
I decide to give them a scenario where they could leave him to get slaughtered, and have a bit of fun taking their catharsis from them. It's a celebration being held after Choker successfully won a gang war against a nearby rival, but never found said rival in the aftermath. All the players are getting merry in a bar with him. Suddenly an attack is launched, a group of vandals are wrecking the kitchen behind the bar. The players and some guards rush off to deal with them, midway through the combat, an explosion rocks the building, players immediately know what the fuck just happened. Quickly finishing off the distraction crew and running back for the bar.
They see Garrot shooting up the place with an AK47, flanked by hired guns and mages. I thought they would run, leave Choker to inevitably lose. Instead one player jumps into the fray, and the others are more than happy to help. Over the course of the combat Choker gets severely wounded, but rolls enough on a vigor check to only receive temporary wounding from a gut shot. One of my players brings up the RPG7 rocket he grabbed last game, and uses that to put Garrot on 2 wounds and kill most of the invaders in one fell swoop. One of my players, realising that Choker is still barely alive. Charges across the room, runs over to him, grabs him by the legs and [b]bodily flings him at Garrot[/b]. I decide to split the damage to both Choker and Garrot, and the roll is high enough to [b]kill them both.[/b] (Well Garrot was technically bleeding out and had a broken arm but whatever)
Combat naturally ends, all of Choker's former gang members turn on the players. Only for the diplomacy character to step up, and roll persuasion well enough to turn all of the gang members over to him. My players spent most of the game laughing, as did I. Now I've gotta figure out how the hell I'm going to run this game with them as leader figures. I'm excited as hell, and so are they.

We've already fought dem sneaky gits, they got the drop on us but we took them down regardless. We've had to deal with mines, but used them to blow up a hoard of faceeater squiggs.
Sniper orks are also possibly the worst snipers in the warhammer 40k universe, but that being said we have a grand total of 1 person who's any good at a range over "melee".

I think saying that just makes you higher on the list
Inquisitors are nothing if not petty teamkilling shits who try and break each other's toys non-stop
Hey all, someone just dropped out of my game on Sunday so I need one more player. Is anyone free at 5pm gmt for some demigod action?

I didn't want people to have to click through 6 images, but okay, I'll change 'em.
I really want to play just a normal fantasy questing pathfinder game. Try as I might, it's still one of my favorite types of games.
First game of VtM went well enough.
Looks like we're going to be cracking down on some Sabbat.
Wasn't there supposed to be more "(Magical) Homestuck in Equestria Land Burst - The Backdown" tonight?

I will host one when I'm not part of 3 different games.
Homestuck RP: You 'Rang?
homestuck was fun
a player got through their starting area, got to mine, we got half way through mine, made all sorts of fun mistakes like making a rocket out of diet coke and mentos, lots of irc chat
homostuck be homostuck, cant wait to get to my planet and kick some consort ASS
Ugh, after this most recent bout of just "I can't face doing anything for a while I'll just hide from the world" I'm now jonesing for a lot of things, getting back into roleplaying included.
Your absence was keenly felt
for all of two hours
