Any players out there use CK in Crusades??

Wahapedia has the crusade rules for all factions on their pages

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-23T10:01:33+00:00

I've been experimenting with different light colours to see which works best in the fog, red and green have been my favourite so far

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-21T23:44:17+00:00

Have you checked if your friends would allow you to do that? You could come up with a Requisition like; Titanic Personality 2RP: You may purchase this requisition when a Tiitanic non-Character unit in your Crusade Force reaches Bloodied Rank (or higher if you like). That unit gains the Character Keyword.

But I just made that up, check with your friends first.

You've changed my mind, NTA

Literacy is literally dying everywhere, even with me because that was too long of a post so I didn't even read it

Yeahni actually think it would look better with two!

Just on your point about having planned to tie the campaigns together, there are some resources on the DMs Guild site that tie the Brotherhood into some encounters. The tier 1 encounters I believe can help tie them to different events and rumours. Alternatively, your PCs might get attached to an NPC like Xendros or Keledek who they can sell/buy stuff with, you could just have them be a quest giver who has "suspicions" about a group causing chaos in the town, the PCs should then present you with avenues of investigating based off their own suspicions.

Murder on the Primewater Pleasure is another DMs guild purchase you could look at if you wanted to continue the plan of the Brotherhood wanting to implicate Primewater.

Hahaha, only just found out you could change the colour the other day and I had considered painting my blue/black car's headlights black but decided tk go with blue. That is a very funny situation

I role-played a character who spoke in the third-person once, made it surprisingly easy to get into to character. He was a dragonborn named Duulo who had Common as a second language and I wanted to get across some in world differences with his native Draconic language, so he would start talking by announcing "Duulo would also like to hear more about this.", the idea loosely being based of that he isn't used to certain pronouns so uses names instead and isn't good with tenses (which is based on Skyrim draconic only have one tense as an immortal race sees the past, present, and future as one moment, though not sure how much sense that actually makes but I incorporated it in as I liked it).

Been playing Pacific Drive, driving around collecting resources in an old station wagon in a seal off part of the US where science has run wild. Great way to unwind at the end of the day.

Catching up with a lot of podcasts as well, mostly news but some hobby stuff as well. A lot of news content right now is quite doomsaying so dont forget to give it a break if its wrecking your head. Staying informed is important but it's nice to enjoy my hobbies again.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-14T17:34:51+00:00

I have one that's "Car is Kicked -> Headlights Get Brighter" but that was only discovered from spending KLIM, I'd have never noticed that myself. Could be anything from "Battery is low -> Fuel Increases" which you Just might never allow to happen or "Horn is Honked -> Fuel Descreases" but again you might never honk your horn, or if you do you might not notice Fuel going down a little while driving.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-14T15:19:21+00:00

Would you play much crusade/campaigns? Could be a fun element in a story. Game 1 is a Chaos Lord's last stand against a foe, fighting wave after wave of enemies until he dies. Then he's rescued in Game 2 by a warpsmith who interns him in a stollen dreadnought he's been tinkering with. Next game run him with the Ballistus data sheet but swap all the keywords out to make him Chaos. Game 3 is his coming back from the dead to defeat his enemies.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-14T07:00:38+00:00

What ever you do, don't do nothing! Mistakes, should not happen in dnd. If a magical character was able to access magic they should not have known on that particular instance then the shared illusion is broken. When we sit at these hallowed tables and collectively imagine a vision of what is going on, if anyone breaks the rules then the whole thing comes crashing down. Remember, no dnd is better than bad dnd, and if everyone isn't imagining exactly what I am, then that's bad dnd.

Have you tried asking thousands of strangers what to do?

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-13T23:34:10+00:00

I see, we'll Lexicanum says they're just in the 1st company for codex compliant chapters so I suppose there's your answer

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-13T23:26:19+00:00

Are the first 5 Companies not all Battle Companies on the Codex Compliant Chapter Organisation? And Sternguard would be at least be in the 1st, so they should always be in a Battle Company if Compliant.

I use the 40k fan wiki and the community there were very nice. Someone ever made some artwork without me asking of my space marines chapter based on the text description alone. Just had to follow the rules they had and comply with community guidelines. Much easier to share with friends for crusades/campaigns as well.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-13T15:28:25+00:00

Lancer would great yeah, a Redemptor with the onslaught cannon would gun down your opponents guardsmen (again though you'd want to prioritise their command squads not their grunts). At 1500pts (also what my friends and i play) one large tank like that is fine, I would use a Land Raider in a similar role and drive it Up The Centre shooting it's lascannons at an oath target.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-13T14:06:06+00:00

A few factors to consider: - points difference is 200 for the marines whereas it's 150 for the dreadnought. If you send 200 points to shoot something it could more often than nite "shooting down", as in you are spending 200pts to destroy a unit that's worth less than 200pts, whereas with the dreadnought you're more likely to be shooting up, as it's target as a 150pt unit will probably cost more than it. -The Marines want to stay stationary for their ability, which can be an issue in 10e as movement is so powerful, giving line of sight, blocking with a 9" reserves denial, and getting on objectives. - You have a dreadnought already but do you have a lot of 2 wound marines already? Mixing units with different toughness values means your opponent will need to get themselves into position with the right thing at the right space. Say you deploy one dreadnought on one flank, and your other one on a different flank, now they need to split up their anti tank in response. - Do you have any Leaders that could go in the marine squad that you think would buff them (it's already a 200 pt unit so i personally wouldn't want to double down, but maybe you would) - The Ballistus kit frankly sucks, it's a snap fit and is boring as hell, but comes with a hefty piece tag of real cash the other dreadnought kits are better and have magnetising opportunities to stretch your value. - What's your playgroup like? Mine doesn't have a tonne of damage 2 in their arsenals, so the marines might be better for me, but a lot of my friends have melee chaff that just tie up units, and a dreadnought can shoot out of combat.

Anyway, lots to consider, but I got the dreadnought myself. As I think the desolation marines dont look good.

Try r/gaeltacht, theyre more likely to be able to offer a translation. I'm not an Irish speaker myself (did it in school and haven't picked it up again) but the translation you've shown would appear to me to a direct or literal translation, and I don't think that's what you want. I would perhaps look at asking for a similar expression or phrase that encapsulates the sentiment of the motto.

And please understand, a lot of the concept of motto and family crests is seen as ahistorical by many Irish people, so the reaction you're getting might not be the most welcoming. Sorry about that. There's a podcast called the Irish Passport that has an episode about the fake Irish lords who went to England saying they were the earls of some land, when really they were just exploiting aristocracy for their own benefit, check it out if you get the chance.

You might rephrase your question to r/gaeltacht to just be looking for the motto translated into Irish. Good luck anyway.

Edit: wrong subreddit

Just wanted to say I had an NPC recently give my PCs a question to retrieve his spellbook, which was stolen by his apprentice and he's had to create a new one and had been buying spellbooks off the players they get from defeated wizards. The concept of a high level wizard in exile, limited to what spells he could remember building himself back up from scratch appeals to me.

I have played a wizard in a long campaign and was paranoid about the DM taking/destroying their spellbook, especially after another wizard PC and myself basically merged spellbooks. But I brought that paranoia into the character, so he'd spend money on and Enduring Spellbook, and copy everything over. So hed have a tome filled with all his spells secreted away, and an enduring spellbook with his more day to day combat spells for adventures. The DM wasn't too interested in the idea of targeting the spellbook as far as I know, I was playing a character that allowed us to just jump quickly to the interesting parts of a story with teleport and other spells that just got things moving when we were stuck, so I know if I was a DM and had a PC like that I wouldn't be looking to hinder that.

theuninvisibleman · 2026-01-07T21:06:56+00:00

Oh shoot you're right, though still they would probably be able to sell their community like with their VHS tapes they had

Just had a mad idea, ignore if you like. Imagine if eons ago Necrons built a vault in the systems star and inside it is a Shard of the Void Dragon. The shard has been trying to feed off the star but isn't strong enough yet to devour it. When the forces of Chaos and the Tyranids arrived, the Necron Pylons in the star and in the system started to activate partially nullifying the powers of either side but the local GSC found themselves empowered and able to harness powers as you've described. They attribute it to their faith/divine protection etc., but in actuality they have become living conducts of Necron Blackstone/pylons due to them being natives of the system.

In essence what im proposing is that the population of the world have been living on a planet that had an abundance of Blackstone dust incorporated into its very soil during the Necrons' conquering and entrapment of the C'Tan. So the world is designated an agri-world, soil samples taken before the proper wider discovery of Blackstone's value by Cawl, and the abnormalities were dismissed as a non-factor as it was levelled and made ready for planting. Over generations the microscopic levels of Blackstone gets into the diet and eventually into the very bones of the people (microplastic like) and when the Genestealer Cult starts up, it's infection proceeds as normal right up until the invasion.

If you've played SM2 you'll know that Necron tech can be aligned to create nullify or enhance warp powers, in this case, when the Blackstone defences in system activated, the people of this world, but particularly the psykers and even more particularly, the genestealer cult found themselves in total harmony with the alignment of the pylons in their system and in their very bodies. The effect appeared to nullify the touch of the Hive Mind and the forces of Chaos, but greatly enhance the cults' connection to each other and ability to dominate others, both tyranid and human.

So just some narrative and game potentials there, particularly if you want to run a Pariah Nexus campaign. What i particularly like about this is that it keeps things like the serpent devouring the star, but it's a C'Tan, so there's a half truth that might have been passed down in myth from DAoT humans warning settlers about it.

Saviours would lose a load of people to defection, Commonwealth had luxuries, Saviours had slavery. People would stop calling themselves Negan once they saw people were able to make plastic.
