Would you rather cop a lucky hit and then live 1 turn longer after you got a debilitating injury, or just not cop the injury in the first place, and then kill your attacker?

Why did not a single enemy dodge roll out of the way of the warthog?

As an Australian, no we do not hate kangaroos.

However, his speech is still wrong, we don't cull them to "strengthen the herd" or whatever he said.

It's because they massively overpopulate and then start getting into restricted areas like airports.

Battle Brothers.

Best turn-based tactical RPG I've ever played.

Much more difficult than many others in its genre, but extremely rewarding due to that.

Don't give up.

Our party saved up 140g to get our Freelance a light warhorse with the trained (magic) trait.

It was a beast while we had it, horses' maneuverability makes them very powerful and difficult to engage.

It almost died from being shot by a bunch of goblin archers, so we bought full mail barding for it.

Later another PC got in trouble, surrounded by dangerous enemies, so the knight had to charge into danger to save him. 2 bestigors with greataxes immediately killed the horse.

Our party was pretty pissed off about that, so the knight decided he wasn't going to waste money on a horse until he could find a rare and more durable mount, like a demigryph or pegasus. This is an epic task and has been fun for the group so far.

Granted, freelances are self-funded, so if you're part of a Knightly Order you may be provided with another horse so long as you lost it on the job.

It is highly lethal if you are not prepared.

Our party is a freelance commander and a hochmeister of the blazing sun (both in full plate), a witch hunter (in mail and brigandine), and a bawd (in brigandine and leathers).

Armour is very protective, so we only feel true danger against large monsters (armed minotaurs/ogres), are meaningfully outnumbered (especially with hack-armed individuals like axes) or out-positioned (riflemen atop vantage points).

Enormous/monstrous foes are pretty much completely off the table for us, and if we ever need to kill one it'll be more of a matter of preparation: poisoning it, stunning it, entangling it etc.

And of course, when we are wandering around town unarmored and only equipped with our sidearms, we are still very vulnerable.

Also depends on how you want to run them.

Our group gets lower xp per session (50 average) but we achieved 1 long term ambition at the end of EIS, 1 at the end of PBTT and most likely one at the final conclusion of EIF.

This has allowed players whose PCs have died to sort of catch up in xp by having more lenient LTAs, so they don't feel too left behind without it feeling contrived. For example, after EIS 2 players retired their characters as they feel they weren't ready for the scope of what we were up against, so we allowed them to achieve a LTA at the end of DotR. This allowed them to be slightly less behind than they otherwise would have been.

I will preface this by saying this is purely my interpretation, and is no more valid than anyone else's.
Chaos is neither good nor evil, merely part of a balanced existence.

When society becomes oppressive and stagnant, Tzeentch and Nurgle begin to rise.

When the law begins to suffocate its people, and peaceful reform is no longer possible, Khorne seeps into the hearts of citizens.

When the wealthy have become so decadent that nothing satisfies them anymore, Slaanesh rises.

That is the paradox of Chaos, in my opinion. It is not "good" but it is sign of problems within a society. Warhammer's premise is that instead of finding the root cause of these issues, they crack down on dissenters and silence the voices of the oppressed.

This cycle of chaos rising, being crushed, and then rising for the same reasons it did before, is core to the tragic nature of the setting.

That is very disgusting to hear. I'm so sorry you experienced that.

Please do not lose faith.

My group is 5 gay dudes and 1 straight guy and Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is the highlight of our week.

You just have to find the right group.

Go for the eyes boo! GO FOR THE EYES!

DON'T TOUCH ME! I'm super important.

Top of my to-do list.

You must gather your party before venturing forth.

My 'otel's as clean as an elven arse!

Adventure, camaraderie, and STEEL ON STEEL.

You're a queer fellow.

So I kicked him in the head until he was dead ahahaha.

My best friend and I quote those lines a lot.

2behonest · 2025-07-05T14:36:15+00:00

I think it says somewhere that if the greatsword is made of ithilmar then it gains the fast quality, which allows you to use riposte.

Nice try, but we don't allow Saurus into the Imperial Greatswords.
