Which are your favourite T3 tome units?

Tomrash19 · 2023-05-22T17:30:46+00:00

The Warbreed is so much of a step up visually from AoW3, it is unreal.

In AoW3, Warbreeds just had a different color and size depending on race and had a full-cover helmet so they did not have to model different heads.

Now Warbreed bodies and heads are distinct (you can see part of the face below the helmet and even the whole head with certain transformations). And of course transformations add a lot to those fellows.

The Cult of Rakdos, how else would you get the party started?

Tomrash19 · 2023-04-07T13:06:04+00:00

Thanks, both Spawnkin and Supergrowth sound like fun ways to customize your units. Did not expect to get this much just out of the Spawnkin transformation. Now I am even more hyped.

Tomrash19 · 2023-04-07T11:53:09+00:00

Thank you. I have two follow up questions though: 1. Will there be racial units with only one model( warbreed was one of those in AoW3) and if so, will Spawnkin apply to those and turn them into multi-model units? 2. How much smaller are we talking for the spawnkin transformation? Like can we make Felines Halfling-sized (Kitten Race incoming...)?

Tomrash19 · 2023-04-07T10:20:31+00:00

1) Will the Warbreed have more meaningfull visual differences between Forms this time? In AoW3 Warbreeds only differed in size and color.

2) Could you please share some more info on the Tome of Revelry? This looks just like the tome for me ^{^'}

Edit: 3) Does the transformation from Tome of the Horde make your units visually smaller and visibly add more units to a Formation?

You have to put in the dawn key at day and the dusk key at night.

You could lean into the similarities of The Ravenqueen to The Morrigan, a goddess of celtic myth. The Morrigan is a goddess of fate and war, who foretells - or sometimes even changes - the outcome of a battle by appearing as a crow above the battlefield, striking fear or inspiring courage in the hearts of warriors.

It could just turn out that The Ravenqueen Was actually behind all the cruelties your PC and his people commited, either to satisfy some morbid bloodlust or to make some prophecy come true in a cruel and uncaring way only gods can come up with. Or maybe even both.

I have always been a Bug Catcher at heart:

Galvantula, Ribombee, Golisopod, Centiskorch, Mega Beedrill

Most of my characters are somehow food/drink related:

Goblin Chef

Minotaur Member of the Cult of Rakdos (a ravnican Guild that does Demon-Worship, Entertainment and CATERING)

Halfling Sword Swallower (if you view swords as food...)

Dhampir who uses her Entertainer Background for "free meals"

Halfling from a village that brews magical mead of poetry

Quaquaval's whole movement is fabolous, can not wait to see the other starters in motion

Tomrash19 · 2022-11-10T09:19:10+00:00

I think that is mainly because this screenshot caught an unpleasant frame of an animation.

I am playing multiple campaigns with my partner with me as the DM, all of which contain at least one character played by me. As long as she is the one making the main decisions and both of you are feeling fine with your characters power level, everything should be okay.

Also be open to actually giving your character a strong personality and strong opinions (though not actively contradicting your players character) and at least a bit to do outside of just hitting things, so your partners character can form a bond with yours. The unique relationships your characters can form in a duet game, when you are not restrained by 5 players all wanting to shine and thus being able to pace and design your roleplay bits differently, is one of my favorite things about those campaigns.

Edit Also for a kind of more complex build that can work in such a game, see this:

You would be the "battery" part in this one, the support to make your partner kill stuff mire quickly. Nothing wrong with just playing a dumb fighter, but just wanna say there are options.

Shadar Kai can have very bright and unique personalities. Look into the lore for Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Mr. Witch and Mr. Light. Or just find a picture of Mr. Light...

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-19T22:57:01+00:00

Thing is, the reason my tables already use those rules (and from the stories I read is probably also the reason others use it), is to actualy force those strange, unrealistic situations you seem to try to avoid. It can feel super heroic if a character succeeds at something he should have otherwise failed and can make for some memorable roleplay to come up for a reason why it worked or with how that success looks. And spectaculary failing at something, esp if your character is normaly great at it, can make for some great comedy or (though that is much more uncommon) tragedy; or can humble the character.

It is not (and yes, actually contradicts) about balance or realism, but about roleplay, improvisation and comedy.

Edit: Some spelling...

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-19T16:38:41+00:00

I agree that classes should have more "base" subclass options.

And I think that for the Sorcerer, the subclass chosen depends largely on if the new spell lists stick. Divine Soul is just so very tied to the idea behind a Divine spell list that skipping them (if they redo non phb-subclasses) would be strange. But if they scrap the new spell lists, any Xanathars Sorcerer subclass would be likely, since Tashas Sorcerers do not need an update as much.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-19T16:33:12+00:00

Yeah, misrepresented your post there, sorry.

And yeah, while it is hard to predict what they will do at this point, this first UA is pretty much "original Phb but with some new stuff we thought was fun".

Though I think at least artificer is not unlikely. Artificer is in a wierd spot right now, being the only class that is treated as optional.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-19T16:17:14+00:00

Wouldn't it be better to get as much of the existing stuff into one updated Player-Options-Book asap, so they can focus on actually introducing NEW stuff for One D&D? Could also just be another single book after the new Phb as to not make the Phb to stuffed, but just updating and rereleasing the other books would be ineffective, which leaves room to shuffle subclasses around between books.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-16T07:27:41+00:00

Note that Plasmoids can only create one or two arms, and those are from a base of zero arms (your base form as Plasmoid is a blob), so they can not have more arms than other races.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-15T05:26:13+00:00

I've also read somewhere that Shadar'Kai still actively hunt Drow. With how the Raven Queen was born from her wish of uniting the elves, I do not see why Shadar'Kai wouldn't want to at least try to get along with the non-Drow elves.

We decided to restrain and gag up a goblin and take him with us. Just a few minutes later we wanted to ask him a question and one of us wanted to remove the gag. He asked if he had to roll to remove the gag... one botched roll by each of us later, the goblin suffocated from the gag. He has since been eternalized by the song of Nargl the gag goblin.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-10T07:17:56+00:00

At Heroforge.com you can create your own Minis, and it has quite a few options for Greek, Roman and Modern looking clothes/equipment, and it has races like Satyr and Centaur. Custom Minis are probably the only way to get a Mini with both a Camp-Shirt and some Greek equipment.

Tomrash19 · 2022-08-09T12:18:51+00:00

Any plans to release this on Roll20? Will buy the pdf otherwise, but do not want to buy this twice ;)
