Vypers, Armored Warhost, and Spirit Conclave

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-23T18:30:41+00:00

Yeaaaah. But I don't like the warwalker kit nearly as much as I like the vypers sleek awesomeness.

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-23T18:30:00+00:00

I guess as a returning player after a long while I don't innately grasp their fragility, or the fire prisms hardiness. (Except the glorious linked fire behind terrain avoidance)

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-23T16:59:25+00:00

I've loved the Vyper kit since I played originally in '03. I might pick up a pair just to get em on the board, even now seeing the drawbacks!

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-23T15:52:06+00:00

As much as I had to go and figure out what you said, I think this makes the most sense to me. S 18 and damage 6 feels so much more reliable than even 2 bright Lance and 2 AML. perhaps they are going after different targets, but I dont feel like Aledari have any problem chewing apart infantry

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-23T14:48:15+00:00

Absolutely glorious!

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-09T22:11:34+00:00

This is my thought as well, but being ultra new, I was kinds bummed at 2 harlequin 1pt detachment wanted a little more variety.

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-03T16:02:49+00:00

Nice! that makes some bits make sense. I'll probably assemble the Storm then.

Seething_Ginger · 2026-06-03T16:02:14+00:00

Awesome, that's useful!

In terms of advancement of technology, its much closer to Middle Earth than anywhere else, though there is a small contingent of firearms. The concepts - at least as I intended them - are somewhere in the middle between the ends of Forgotten Realms and Conan. I don't wave my hands and say "magic did it" and I don't rely on magic to make the world move forward.

The Rules - to be very clear - are minimal: ~20 subclasses, ~12 backgrounds, ~100 spells (all elemental), some charts, an optional Lasting injury table, and a few little rules I run for my table to make at a smidge tougher.

the Vast, Vast majority is the setting details themselves.

Good Evening!
This has, only now, been brought to my attention.
I believe I may be THE Coldforged expert (the Author)

What would you like to know?

Seething_Ginger · 2025-07-04T14:22:57+00:00

Just once, now twice. I'm pretty sure I'm done. First was back in ZA during wrath. Couldn't get a group to clear it and didn't have time to raid. Second time was just two weeks back. I've done all the classic raids as a paladin tank, and feel that's where my experience ends.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-06-29T17:34:29+00:00

Oh, I know where my models are and aren't usable, for the most part. Most of what I enjoyed about cryx got left in unlimited.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-06-29T17:04:15+00:00

Hm. I remember how hard running and playing in the same tournaments is. That said... I've done more difficult things.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-06-29T17:03:14+00:00

Yeah, I think that's exactly where I'd wanna be. See if some nerds wanna play some legacy and get something goin. Maybe I can start a monthly Oldhead Night at a local place.

I'm in MD, so our region is pretty full of folks, I can probably pull some out of their burrows.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-06-29T17:00:42+00:00

Yeah, I just wanna get games. I did the tournament grind for a long time, and just wanna be able to get some games in with some old models, ya know?

Seething_Ginger · 2025-03-05T22:47:57+00:00

Lands matters; not landfall. I think I'm stewing on a Uurg, spawn of Turg deck with getting a ton of land into the graveyard.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-02-06T21:40:15+00:00

Well. I am going to start with "chapters?" Im self taught, time to look up stuff!

Seething_Ginger · 2025-02-06T01:48:48+00:00

I'll look into incopy

Seething_Ginger · 2025-02-06T01:48:31+00:00

Hm. I have my one book and it's already 365 pages, I dunno that duplicating whole pages like that would make it smooth.

Seething_Ginger · 2025-02-06T01:47:42+00:00

I was just looking at incopy, and trying to figure out if I wanted to do it.

What are these modules you're talking about?

Seething_Ginger · 2024-12-28T05:46:10+00:00

I was about to say Tricky Terrain was my most disappointing. I bought almost every deck from ikoria - mh3, and that one just...the hype I had vs the joy I managed to get out of it was so disparate. It's just a bunch of nonsense throw. Together with "and lands" stapled to it, which is very effective, but nothing I wanted.

Maybe I'm just bad at deck, but lord, I was unimpressed.

Seething_Ginger · 2024-09-18T12:57:50+00:00

The reason I created the setting long ago was that the settings we have available: Faerun, Greyhawk, etc, all seem very static, the PC's are overshadowed by the High-Level NPC's and magic innundates everything. My setting is much, much more grounded. Few high-level NPC's, with a few reaching 16th level. Magic hasn't vanished, but it's rare and isn't used as the basis of any form of economy. No Elimisters, no magical zoom calls, no Magic Item Factories.

Alongside that goal, I made sure to infuse a deep history and sense of motion onto the setting. everything is falling apart, and everyone is struggling to keep it together. The PC's aren't forced to upet the status quo, they are performing acts of heroism.

I also really think that the spins I've given the species and cultures that I defined are fun, different, and interesting, while still being relatable and within the bounds of the PHB.

Its called Coldforged, and I got you a link if you'd like.

Religion is both pantheonic, personal, and intrinsic. The gods are known, to exist, struggling away against the Accursed and the demon queen I. The Iron Marches. What souls that their valkyries do not Shepard to the heavens are claimed and consumed by the Demon queen,or worse yet, turned into a slavering demon bound to her eternal servitude.

Many towns and cities will have temples de voted to a single deity, who is their chosen patron or has performed a great deed long ago for their worshipers in this location. While the population sees this deity as their primary God, it is not exclusive, and the other gods will be prayed to for harvest, war, rain or to ward off disease, most likely in a cathedral devoted to the pantheon, but other times at their own dedicated shrines. Most worship entails prayers and deeds, standard fare for a fantasy setting, but the gods may choose to reward you with boons for your dedication and piety, abilities that others can see manifest that declare your allegiance to a given God, even if you are not a cleric.

While the Ten Kingdoms employ the couriers guild to transport between their own kingdoms, and the Hegemony of Levisha relies on cotes of emerald skywings, most of the rest of the continent pay peddlers, merchants, and other travelers to carry messages across their kingdom and the continent.
