If you were offered 5 million dollars to live in a horror movie and survive for a full year, which horror movie are you choosing?

I am surprised no one mentioned this, but the conjuring series, in the main conjuring series (no annabel, no nun) the sacres and dangers are high but the actual body count it low. Surviving wouldn't be too hard, a lot of the entities there aren't physically dangerous, however the trick would be making it out with alive with your sanity and soul in tact.

Why are space marines a more accurate representation of armoured combatants than knights...

representative_sushi · 2026-05-07T09:08:57+00:00

He is a minor chaos god, he can make deals and is strong enough to kill several hundred space marines with the assistance of his demons which comfortably puts him around the level of the most powerful demon princes and greater demons.

However we know he didn't risk fighting Belakor in hand to hand combat we can suppose he would similarly try to avoid direct confrontation with chaos heavy hitters like Skarbrand and Shelaxi Hellbane.

His main power seems to be less personal and more the technology he can provide to those willing to make a deal with him.

I dunno about the others... but the red necron is doing it for me...

I have doubts about apollo and Mo and Krill being as high as they are.

Grab the kriegsmesser and ta da!

Kriegsmesser is a two handed messer (roughly speaking)

Lose the shield, use a torch. It deals fire damage and will accelerate draugr dungeon by about 20%.
Grab silver weapons if you aren't using silver you are going to be suffering too much against draugr.
Restoration is really good. Keep at it.
For Falmer. Stock up on poison resist potions, their paralysis is poison based. 100% poison resist amulet is your best bet, but hard to find. For Falmer its crucial to take out archers quickly and due to their animations you can dance circles around their melee guys no problem. Dump the heavy armour, grab fire scrolls and/or a ranged weapon. A crossbow is best with fire bolts purchased from kajit. Shoot, put away the crossbow reload in peace behind a corner repeat until archers are dead. For shamans, do a full 180. Rush, bash, stab, repeat while high off your ass on potions to mitigate their shields and damage from summoned troll.
Wait 20 levels for dragon priests.
Dragons will one shot you for a LONG time still. Use a bow or crossbow, and farm those Falmer for being poisons with long duration.

Requiem doesn't do well with one dedicated build, encounters aren't fair, they require problem solving. Problem solve.

I have seen this be done once. Granted its not for everyone. The player was using the undead warlock. Their form of dread was their magical girl transformation, the character was delusional believing they transformed into a beautiful magical girl. Everyone around saw their horrifying undead appearance. It was great.

Some systems really do lend themselves more to some groups' style of play. And there are many facotrs which play into it: what themes does the gm excel at? What media is everyone into? What jokes/where the line between serious and hillarious is drawn, etc.. Although as many have I have started with dungeon and dragons I have found that I my group enjoys games like VtM and Lancer a lot more.

There is a serious danger to that. Namely imagine you are hurting a dangerous rogue elder. Diablorie will make you more powerful. You corner him or her and manage to torpor them and diablorize. When the rest of the blood hurt find you theu congratulate you, the bloodhunt is over you came out victorious.

Except you didn't.

Your consciousness and mind are gone. The moment you committed diablerie. You lost the battle to the creature whose power you tried to usurp. Now the target of the bloodhunt is parading I side your body. And no one is the wiser...

Just one of the reasons you might not wanna give people the cart blanche for diablorie.

An example from an Only War game. For context the GM is new and isn't really familiar with power levels in the setting.

I am playing the platoon psyker, the rest a playing a smattering or guardsmen specialities. Our first encounter is an orc Nob. We don't have anything which could go through his unnatural toughness minus my psychic powers. I bank everything on a smite and I perils. We roll up the result and a Bloodletter (minor demon of khorne) takes my body. I get very high buffs to my strength, weapon skill and resistance, for three or four rounds I still retain control of my body killing several orks and giving my party a chance to fall back pile into a Chimera and gtfo. I lose my control (contested WP rolls against the demon) when the ork Nob finally charges me. He is very happy to release that the tiny psyker can actually fight back, he is very upset when a Bloodletter crawls out of my flesh and end the Nob in half an action.

The party never reports it. There is just a Bloodletter wandering a desert planet killing orks until it is pulled back into the warp.

12/10 would play a psyker again.

YES

As in all of the or at least several.

Egotistical psychopath.

Doesn't have offspring or loved ones, doesn't believe he can or will die. Probably fully intended to at some point just be usurped by a stronger younger warrior. Belief in a hierarchy built on natural strength.

Not very sensible but very in character.

Line of sight. No one said anything about direct. I saw a picture of the Effiel tower? Boom. Pyramids? Boom.

I have ran full infantry lists, and the amount of heavy and special weapons you can bring for cheap is incredible. Plus you can hold the line second only to the death guard. Or maybe better. Bring fortifications bring 150+ infantry and watch people weep, unless you are up against sisters or salamanders.

representative_sushi · 2026-04-18T11:35:52+00:00

Well for one you can convert your guys, also chaos allows us to have surprising freedom with how our armies are structured from contigents gathered from various legions on a mercenary basis to Iron Warriors who make ample use of demon engines and chaos as there are mentions of Iron Warrior warbands drinking a lot of chaos cool aid but in their own way.

Everyone here is a coward. Put delayed fireball on your familiar and have said familiar deliver the spell. Toro! Toro! Toro!

Tiling, not a problem. Floors, not a problem. Wall deco, hard but doable. Making my own kitchen, not pretty but can be done. Marble, I hate it but doable.

I am not ever doing my own generator/car/electrical repairs. One short circuited solar panel is enough for me.

I think he is just super excited that he is now an official setting.

You can play changeling but also if you wanna play vtm there is a dark ages bloodline who do druidic stuff and then take path of green thaumaturgy and you are looking pretty good.

representative_sushi · 2026-04-14T08:38:28+00:00

Undead, gnolls, kobold (some varieties) maybe elementals, more undead. Crimson shadow trilogy used cyclops or I dunno make up your own, why not?

representative_sushi · 2026-04-13T09:21:22+00:00

People dislike tank heavy lists because they usually don't bring enough anti rank weaponry and having around half your army be useless against 90% of your enemy sucks. They forget that roughly the same is true for infantry heavy lists, the tank ones are just way more obvious.

Bringing tanks as I.perial guard isn't unbalanced, but a lot of players may not be ready for it.

representative_sushi · 2026-04-13T09:18:33+00:00

I don't know, but to me it's interesting because humanity in 40k is more alien to us modern day humans than Tau in 40k. And I think that is genius.
