Orks, of course.

Fantasy was the first one i played... and the one i was better at...

a came once came third in a regional tournament using a balanced bret force... (ok if it was 1900pts it would have been balanced... but i took the banner of cheese... :/,,,)

to be fair i had about 200pts invested in men@arms...

We guard the glades of Athel Loren from all those who would dare desecrate the sacred groves.

I play Vampire Counts. I almost always use Von Carsteins. I have undead Empire theme.

I only recently learned that Sylvania's heraldry is purple/black, not red/black. I'm either going to gradually add more purple, or just strip the paint and make them into living Empire soldiers. I'm getting a little tired of the army after all.

tzeentch-

-where else can you get a 2000pt army of 8 models

>>161

splain this please

chaos lord on dragon mark of tzeentch -100pts wargear =810
+
2 exalted champions on disk mark of tzeentch -50 pts wargear =490
+
5 chariots of chaos mark of tzeentch = 700

total8 models 2000pts

>>163
Fail. You don't have enough core units.

>>164

umm chariots count as core

Empire, particularly the new less shitty empire is by far the best and most balanced army. (if you dont run a tank) You get shitty but seminumerous troops, good knights, good shooting, and the game's best artillery.

I am a little down on Settlers of Catan. It's a brilliant game, but it is too random for me. I can have the best setup in the world, and a few lucky rolls push the guy on the 2 and 12 into the winners circle.

When not in the company of those who play full on Figure games, I enjoy a relatively inexpensive and more game-noob friendly alternative in the form of Heroscape. Its almost shockingly fun ever having played "real" strategy games like Warhammer 40K.

I also love to while away the hours on Risk, Risk 2010 and Risk Godstorm (all other risk's are balls)

And of course, nothing can beat the classic feel of a game of chess at my universities local chess club. Note: I am horrible at chess to a degree that is nigh unfathomable.

a friend of mine came up with an easy solution for that: just about any box of dominoes will have the right pip-combinations for all the possible dice outcomes, so put in one of each combo per 'value dot' that Catan gives it. put em all face down, and pick one instead of rolling dice.

you get a fixed curve of output, but a randomized order.

>>454
Won't this result in players memorizing the outcomes so far?

>>452
Thanks for giving me the name of that game. I saw it at Walmart like a year ago and have wanted to buy it since.

Dark Tower. There's a flash version at http://www.hotflashgames.com/darktower.htm

>>668
God, I love that game...

This, but fourth edition

>>672 The art is cooler in 2nd ed. Awesome boardgame though.

Sphere Magick is fantastically abusive in the wrong hands.

Heh, gaming in the early 90's. White Wolf tried so hard to get away from traditional gaming behaviors and conventions, only to have it all collapse under the weight of it's own pretentiousness. Gamers will be gamers, no matter how much you change the terminology and focus on "free-form storytelling."

>>674

It was a nice attempt while it lasted anyways.

OF couse it's even funnier that they ended the World of Darkness (who else ends their own stories instead of milking it for all it's worth?) to make a new WoD that is so generally alien and odd that most won't even touch it and would rather spend forever hunting about Ebay for books.

At least the other stuff they did afterwards is rather good.

Good with Kamahl

Dryad Arbor.
Win.

Demonoid's back, noob.

Rood

Noh.

No, wait.

uber-warforged?

LATE REACTION TIME.

>>574

Noh. I lol'd.

>>604
Warforged Juggernaut. Seriously, check it.

Funny enough we just started an Eberron campaign last night and I rolled a Warforged. I want to go juggernaut, but I was convinced to roll an artificer. Think Ican make both work?

I personally love Warforged. So much potential, but such a hindrance when playing with munchkins.

>>657
Yes, you can. Your character's goal could be to become like the legendary Warforged of Xendrik by crafting himself modifications. Remember, Juggernauts try to emulate true constructs as best their ability. So keep that in mind when debating on going that PrC.

unbalanced

>>solo role-playing

Doesn't that sort of defeat the point?

They've mostly been killed off by video games.

Tunnels and Trolls had some solo adventures.

Old adventure books...

You could play a game based off of D&D. Knights of the Old Republic for instance is a good game based off of Dungeons and Dragons rules.

starwars rpg 2nd edition (I believe it was 2nd, but it might have been 3rd...) had a solo adventure to teach you the ropes. I would have liked to see more solo rpg games, kind of like choose your own adventure, except sometimes instead of making a choice a dice roll would choose for you.

>>367

Nah I'd say Planescape: Torment.

Well if one can find a copy of it.

I've heard planescape rocks the casbah, but where might one find a demo?

I actually liked those paper and pen games. LoTR and that board game that had warrior, dwarf, elf and a mage.. Too bad it's not fun to play on your own. I'm so lonely. But anyways, there's always Angband with it's variations, Nethack, Baldur's Gate and of course the newer 3D MMORPG's like Guild Wars or such.

You mean this?

Yea,yea! Thanks>>654
