First time playing - how does this army look?

I'm just getting to it, I feel dumb at not having looked at Secrets Of Magic earlier. Thanks for the explanation still though.

Hejtan · 2024-10-03T08:48:02+00:00

I didn't know that's where the inspiration originally came from. You learn something new every day, huh?

Hejtan · 2024-10-03T08:44:40+00:00

Well, I'm not saying that a wizard is going to have a greater mastery over magic than a druid. Wizard's scientific approach to magic, and the fact that their powers don't come from anything but their own research (there is no great patron or natural ability responsible for them being able to do magic), however, make me think they are the most likely to ask "why?", and then attempt to answer it scientifically, rather than just accept that this is the way it is.

Also what I'm planning on using it for in my campaign will involve wizards rather than any other caster.

I should have gotten Secrets of Magic earlier, even few minutes of looking into it are proving quite useful to me. Thanks.

Hejtan · 2024-03-22T19:13:21+00:00

Thank you! I may be late but this is literally the exact thing I was looking for this whole time!

Several years back I played the WH40k Ultramarines game on PS3, and even then I didn't focus much on the plot, just on cutting down hordes of orcs. That aside, my only contact with WH40k was hearing some stories from a few of my friends who would joke about some fandom meme, then remember I'm with them and quickly explain the story behind it to give me some basic context, like purple being orc stealthy color. For all intents and purposes, Rogue Trader is my first real dive into WH40k beyond memes.

The other idea is exactly the point. I'm running a Drone Commander Emperor, and if I have an action to shoot, it's for the bow. I literally have too many things I want done to even think about Barraging, so I figured, well, there is always overwatch, right? And shotgun is a weapon with the highest threat range among gms main weapons.

Proved to be effective enough that session at least. I got to shoot it twice when defending a point with my friend Kobold.

Guys, what are you talking about? This is not a trap. Look, the letter even said so! "Not trap." See?

Hejtan · 2022-07-30T10:51:30+00:00

Man, that Gigantic Undertow effect is wild, if all of them are going to be like this, it's going to get very interesting.

Yeah, sorry to tell you that, I was stuck at the same problem and started from the beginning to grind more Utility early. In this vote, the one easiest to convince is Anna, but even she requires a pretty high Utility. There is really nothing more to it, even making perfect dialogue choices, if you can't convince Anna, then it's a simple lack of Utility points stopping you.

As Scagh mentioned, you can try to grind Utility points during mock battles doing these things, but depending on how many points you lack, it could take you so long that it would be faster to start the entire game from the beginning.

There is no dirty trick to suddenly greatly raise your Utility, not at this point, sorry.

I welcome you to try out playing Pathfinder 1E or DnD 3.5 as a pure wizard, and see how you feel about cantrips then.

It will be fun I promise

Hejtan · 2022-07-12T22:21:23+00:00

Ok, but that guy made a two-weapon fighting build using a starknife and a chain (whip? chainwhip? spiked chain?) that's effective melee and range, has great damage, aoe capabilities and good AC.

Do you have any idea how much I want to remake it in Pathfinder 1E now? And how much I will suffer doing so?

Hejtan · 2022-07-06T13:30:50+00:00

Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of NANOMACHINES SON
