Really? I thought it was alright.
It's only the first episode of the season. This story arc has some time to gain momentum.

I just discovered this band and it's not half bad. I like the way the music itself sounds.

I'm not a goth girl I swear

Mostly I just listen to Rammstein, synthesizer, orchestral, a couple pop somgs, some classic rock and electronic

nice

That looks really good man! Reminds me of some of the projects my friend in high school would make for ceramics class. That was a class I wanted but couldn't get in to because it was full.

Dankeschön.

Painting minuscule details sounds like a nightmare.

Oh it is. But I'll do it for the Emperor.

An unpainted Templar is unfit to crusade against the enemies of mankind.

If I got into miniatures I'd just want them as figures to look cool on my shelf. I don't know anyone who does tabletop gaming.

I wanna get some of those Halo fleet miniatures at some point too. The CCS, CAS and CSVs and the UNSC Frigates look so goddamn cool.

I don't know about other games, but for 40k the GW retail locations double as places to meet up with other players. My local store has two tables set up in back specifically for playing.

There isn't a GW in my town, as far as I'm aware.

I'm not really too bothered though. Tabletop wargames seem like the kind of thing you need like, a week off to play properly.

Minor question: do you have to paint the models specific colours or can you make up your own troops?
It's whatever you want to do. You can go with the colors of an official space marine chapter or make up your own chapter. The idea of successor chapters allows you to create your own chapter and still take advantage of the special rules applied to official chapters.

The same basically applies to any faction, not just space marines.

Also the death of Bismarck. He should have been cloned, or at least been allowed to take Wilhelm under his wing to a greater extent that he did. Maybe Wilhelm II would have been a better leader then.

I'm a lore guy only for now. If I ever got into the tabletop game, I'd want to have a Death Korps of Krieg armpy.
The best Imperial Guard regiment.

I went with Space Marines because they are a good beginner army, and one of the least expensive to start out with. I couldn't bare having an army that wasn't at least somewhat German, however. Thus, I went with the Black Templars, who are for all intents and purposes Teutonic Knights in spaaaaaaace.

Games with miniatures are a scam.

You know, it's really not that expensive if you know where to buy the materials you need, and if you don't overextend yourself.

I kept on hearing about how expensive 40k was. I went online to the official store. It seemed a bit pricy. Then I went to a local wargaming store that wasn't operated by GW, and looked on eBay, and discovered that if you know where to look, it isn't all that expensive.

The only part that could be considered expensive is starting out. Buying the rulebook, the codex for your army, some miniatures, and then paints. But that isn't even that expensive if you go about it correctly. You can get a fully functional army and and just about everything you really need to play for around $200. Really, the major expenses lie in the books ($75 for codex and rulebook), and paint, but that is if you are going for a very nice, detailed look for your models.

It can seem expensive when you are starting out, but once you have the basic elements of your army set up you don't necessarily need to buy things all that much.

The trick is to plan ahead, and limit yourself. Don't go out and buy loads of models only to overwhelm yourself and then get burned out of the whole thing. Stick to one army and build it up at a slow and methodical pace.
They're just really overpriced chess pieces that look like shit out of the box and most of which you have to assemble.

Not to mention, zealots won't even play with you if your pieces aren't "real".
It's 100% a scam, and the most expensive way to get beat up at school.
I haven't ever encountered people who demand you use the "official" pieces. Most people that I have met have been very laid back and totally accepting of a soda bottle for a space marine drop pod.
I am writing an Elder Scrolls tabletop (books and dice only, no pieces or layouts)

And would appreciate some feedback on what I have so far.

I am afraid I am not the person to ask. I am not an expert regarding the creation of tabletop games and their rules.

I just know how to not completely break the bank when you start out, and that people worth playing with don't give a shit if your Tyranid carnifex is a Coke bottle.
I've never met a 40k player who didn't insist on GW approved assets.
Huh. I guess it just depends on who you talk to. I have spent a couple months watching people play games and talking to them, and asking people what they thought about proxy models. Most of them said that people worth playing with don't care all that much, as long as you aren't asking for your pennies to count as Terminators. I suppose you just have to find the right people.

Black Templars are primarily only black and white but damn, getting the paint job looking neat is such a pain. That's not even taking into consideration the little details such as the lenses of the helmets, the leather holsters, and tabards. I am not terrible at it by any means, and the fact that the primary color of the miniatures is black certainly makes everything easier.

Still, it's frustrating at times and I wish that I had immediately painted a set of models hat I had purchased, and then ought he next and painted them, and so on and so forth. Instead, I waited until I had bought the entirety of my starter army before painting them, so I have a total of 27-29 models to paint.

« on: September 19, 2016, 10:35:02 PM »
yeah there was a woman with brain cancer in the shop I was volunteering in and she kept buying me books, and wouldn't let me give her money, so before I left I gave the boss the amount she'd spent on me and told her to pass it on to the lady

not that it was depressing, although her condition was sad, but she lived alone on a budget, so that it made one feel small, or inspired to be even better as a person... both

That's very sad. Similar to my experience.

I think people who have a terminal illness try and compensate for how sad they feel inside by being outwardly friendly to a somewhat unusual extent, and being overly generous to people they don't know that well. At least, that was the impression I got from the guy in Games Workshop. He was very outgoing and was constantly joking around, and many of his jokes were self-deprecating.

The Flood / Depressing interactions you have had with people?
« on: September 19, 2016, 08:32:13 PM »
The other day I went to my local Games Workshop store to watch some people play 40k and discuss the army I am building (Black Templar Space Marines) with experienced players.

There was a guy there who was very friendly and nice. I was talking with him about my army, and he suddenly decided that I needed a model of High Chaplain Grimaldus (at no point had I stated a desire for this model or anything). He then bought a chaplain model to use as a proxy for Grimaldus. I was stunned that he would just buy a model for a perfect stranger.

Later, I would overhear him in conversation with the guy who works at the shop. The guy who bought the model for me has thyroid cancer.

I just felt very uncomfortable with his generosity. Not because I got any creepy vibes from the guy, but because his behavior made me feel very sad, and I suspect that he has done this before, which strikes me as somewhat self-destructive.


What interactions have you had with others that have made you feel somewhat depressed, and made you empathetic towards others?
