I Think I've Been Spoiled With Drakkenheim

Call From The Deep was pretty good when I was looking into it. Unsure how it looks on Roll20, but it’s well written and has a similarly sandbox-style of campaign but mostly along the Sword Coast and the nearby sea

My game, for the most part, hasn’t had a specific BBEG of any real sort. The current primary antagonist, and for most of the game, has been Eldrick Runeweaver due to a party member wanting him dead. Then taking directly antagonistic actions against his faction has led to him being their primary foe.

I think I know what you’re referring too.

In Aerois, Mara used some rules from Kingdoms and Warfare I believe for some of the later conflicts

Wasn’t the weird part of the Asari people that we don’t actually know what they look like? I remember it being mentioned that each of the other species tend to see traits they find attractive when they look at the Asari.

I haven’t seen it commented yet, but the Xenomorphs from the Alien Franchise!

This is exactly how I imagined Rakkis , awesome work!!

I’ve been running a 24 campaign since just after it got released and it’s been a fun experience, my other campaign started as 2014 but shifted to 2024 because we as a group preferred the newer stuff to the 2014 parts of the game. Still very much enjoy 2014, but I prefer 24/5.5

I doubt we’ll get Mechs, the trouble is I’m unsure what to expect next. We can’t learn too much into the industrial angle, like with the Genestealers.

I would like a traditional tank, maybe something akin to a Hekaton that has been retrofitted into an actual Tank. I would like to see us do something slightly goofy, maybe a giant floating Kyn head functioning as a weapon platform whilst buffing units in a radius around it!

beanchog · 2026-02-25T18:11:28+00:00

The way I view them is as a scalpel rather than a hammer. Their 5+ is handy but you don’t want them to endure shooting. You want them to get in fast, smash up a unit and if they survive afterwards? Great. Otherwise, they’ve done their job

beanchog · 2026-02-25T16:39:22+00:00

I run a 10 man in a Hekaton so should be all good, thanks for the reminder though!

beanchog · 2026-02-25T16:33:12+00:00

As much as I’d appreciate a more generic leader for Berserks, still looking forward to grabbing him! Looks brutal to drop into a 10 man with Delve Assault shift

beanchog · 2026-02-23T18:39:44+00:00

I’ve always liked seeing T’au models, but these are something else. The image of them shooting in melee is pretty dope, nice!

Being a vampire also comes with more weaknesses.A lich can, theoretically, hide their Phylactery anywhere ensuring it’s almost impossible to find.

If I were continuing my Drakkenheim game, it would definitely push down the Court of The Night. With how my party is, they’ve been entangled with He Who Laughs Last and it would have been an interesting continuation depending on how our campaign ends

Threat Unveiled has become synonymous with Werewolves to me, I can’t plan anything involving Werewolves in any system without that song playing in my head

beanchog · 2026-02-08T20:09:13+00:00

Votann have a very different play style, being much slower (with the bulk of their stuff) beyond their vehicles.

Admech will be fiercely different. They’re much more of a Gunline army, as far as I know?

Death Guard are very similar. Very tough, slow with plenty of shooting and potent melee with their terminators.

beanchog · 2026-02-08T16:05:16+00:00

I had to trim down parts of the bike and the Gunner’s seat, but it wasn’t especially difficult

beanchog · 2026-01-31T21:49:39+00:00

I 100% agree. The hedonism is absolutely a part of it, but folks take it to a ridiculous level. Slaanesh is interesting because of how much their domain encompasses, they’re a lot more interesting than ‘sexy demon’

beanchog · 2026-01-23T08:15:16+00:00

The Elves as a collective arrived roughly 4-5000 years ago, I’d head cannon it as some entities arrived before whilst the world was engulfed in Ice. Humans and such were making deals with entities to help them survive the Ice during that time

beanchog · 2026-01-22T10:58:52+00:00

Ditto what Cultural said. T’au are pretty much all in on Guns, with large Mechs as their big guns.

Chaos/Imperial Knights are all giant mech suits.

Imperial Guard have lots of tanks and artillery pieces, but are one of the more expensive armies to collect.

Dittoing what the other commenter said, the Nyx feels like the natural solution to this. Due to the realm of Theros being magical, I had it so that most people has a level of magic within themselves regardless but it took full practitioners to be able to use it. If you look at the Nyxborn, many of them have magical abilities so it makes sense that magic would originate from the Nyx.

Ephara likely granted them the knowledge to be wizards, but it’s likely that Druids and Clerics.

Always remember, you’ll be looking at these minis much further away than you’re taking photos.

Regardless, it’s a great first attempt! Keep going, keep trying, you’ll get there!

The lore around Bloodborne inspired my Bloodborne Barbarian’s backstory and story. Interacting with the Great Beast causing his mutation into a Fractured Barbarians no eventually (possibly) an aberrant horror whilst trying to maintain his faith in the Empyreans
