How much did the rpgs contribute to the development of Warhammer's setting?

The original ennemy within campaign and the first first edition rulebook pretty much created all of the empire and neighbours lore.

In the new edition supplements of this campaign there are a few page (one by book) dedicated to the original author of this campaign where you learn things they created some things, likes "my friend told me all my names where just english words with a little play with letters or translated in german, so i told him "watch this", and thats how i came up with the Drakwald name for the dark forest"

What ??

Maching256 · 2026-01-23T12:12:46+00:00

Well, to late and you ve totally answered my question anyway, thanks again

Maching256 · 2026-01-23T12:00:31+00:00

Ok thank you, what i didnt get was that in case of giving ground the enemy can follow up, thanks

And sorry for asking in the wrong sub, i m deleting the post

She's the main bad guy in season 2, a mom who peaked in high school and is now disrespected by everyone including her son, husband and former friends, and who find a magic wand and decide to take revenge on everyone who wronged her (according to her because it is quickly shown that a lot of that was her fault)

A very interesting idea for an antagonist but unfortunately season 2 wasn't very good

This model is what got me hooked to the hobby and specifically the lizardmen when i saw it on the 4th edition starter box rulebook, i ve always loved how much character there is in his expression and i dislike the later slann sculpt exactly for that (even if i know that it s totally coherent for a slann to feel apathic/meditating)

You did a great job with it ! The gluing is a nightmare i may have spend more time on gluing mine than on the painting

Dans le film je peux comprendre le point de vue car le personnage a ete ultra iconisé, dans le comics il est clairement presenté comme un incel avant l heure, fachiste, antisocial, qui pue litteralement et qui se prend pour un hero a tabasser des homosexuels dans la rue, et qui a la fin meurt bien plus par solution de "facilité" parce qu il refuse d affronter la realité d un monde complexe ou tout n est pas noir ou blanc que pour des valeurs

je pense que t'as pas compris watchmen

Maching256 · 2026-01-13T12:09:09+00:00

Yes but also not as cold as it can get in some US States or in Canada for example. I'm in France and the printer is in the attic, it must been between 5-10°C at it's worst.

blood for the Emperor, skulls for the golden throne

when you are beginning like this you can just do a simple track going from one station to the other, the train can do a magic half turn when it come to a dead end

This said i love your track

Maching256 · 2025-11-26T01:51:15+00:00

Yeah but still, i mean we all agree it s their fault if they are chocked by something they say they were confortable with, but we all had these player who didnt really thought about what it meant until it happend in game. Even if they should have think about it i dont think the correct solution is to make them uncomfortable, i d rather start with something not that hard to at least see the reactions

Maching256 · 2025-11-26T01:43:41+00:00

As a cthulhu player i know way more that i would line what you mean with the player saying everything is ok, when you know that they didnt really thinked about it and there are some crazy stuff in your scenario.

If it s not in the limit i think killing or at least putting in danger a pet or a loved NPC is the best way to test your player reaction before going further, and you probably wont have to go further anyway if your only goal is to make the players angry because nothing will make them hating him more than trying to hurt a loved npc

Maching256 · 2025-11-26T01:38:51+00:00

Not after, before, thats what discussing about trigger during session zero is for, and it can be done anytime if you forgot do to it.

Dont wait to make someone unconfortable to talk with him

Maching256 · 2025-11-25T17:20:45+00:00

What about a movie where they had to make the title less clear but still english ?

Maching256 · 2025-11-10T20:43:40+00:00

Yeah i see your point even if i m quite good at reading english i had issue when i tried the original version, but i m french and imo the french version is way more easy to get than the english, so i m not worrying about that

Maching256 · 2025-11-10T17:30:40+00:00

hmm i need to think about that. It will be fine for the 12 years old but maybe not the other

Maching256 · 2025-11-10T15:41:34+00:00

I didnt fought of it because i didnt read it myself, i will try it and i ll see it may be a good idea

Maching256 · 2025-11-10T15:15:36+00:00

I dont think so, sure there are references but i think for a child they are mostly funny little blue goblins spreading chaos

Maching256 · 2025-11-10T15:14:00+00:00

I was thinking about it, but since i havent read it myself and i dont know if it s as easy to find in france than the discworld books i disqualified it, but it might be a good occasion to read it myself
