I haven't played Silver Tower but I've played Age of Sigmar a few times. It was fun but not as satisfying as Warhammer Fantasy Battles was. My game group has switched over to Kings of War for our ranks and flanks gaming, Dungeon Saga for our dungeon delving, and Frostgrave for our fantasy skirmish gaming. All great systems that I can't recommend enough. Dungeon Saga in particular does a good job of capturing that Hero Quest feel that is the gaming origin story for so many people my age, but updated and with more depth to make it palatable and enjoyable for adults.

just wondered if anyone had seen this

No, I hadn't seen it. No wonder no content came out for DH2!
Shame, a real, damn shame. Maybe GW are thinking of bringing all their work back in-house with Black Library...?

Any word with what's happening with their games?  Is GW giving it to another company or are they taking it over.

the rumor i heard is that they got upset about x-wing and told fantasy flight if they wanted to keep the contact they needed to get rid of it

Makes sense. X-wing is a popular competitor to GW and they're not a company prone to overreacting... Oh, wait!

Is this place still active at all?  Also, is anyone thinking of starting up a game in the 40k Universe soon? I wouldn't mind a game in any of the systems really.

Some Rogue Trader maybe ;)

I'm game for RT.

I'd be up for any 40k related game really.

If there is a game where I could perhaps play as a eldar, and have very little knowledge of how the game works in the 40k universe, I would be interested to join.

An Eldar game would be wild.  If you allowed Dark Eldar, Harlequins and Exodites it could get really interesting.

What about a wraithlord character?

In reply to helvorn (msg # 893):

Sorry, I meant as a player ;) I have no knowledge what so ever of the rules and have only played the Dark Heresy for a small amount.

Understood.  I was just speculating myself.

In reply to helvorn (msg # 895):

Though a wraithlord does sound fun, I would prefer to be 'alive' so to speak. What classes are there usually available?

I'm not very conversant with the Xenos roleplaying opportunities.

Any thoughts? Doth there be anyone still around?

Darn that Age of Sigmar must have had a lot more casualties than I had anticipated......

I don't care who you are Shadespire is darn fun. End times or not.

Blessed be your bolters and let the Emperor's grace lead your aim.

I'm not excited about another ruleset but fresh adventures and takes on the setting are always welcome.

I'll check it out when it launches. The WFRP system is by far my favorite.

Probably nice

If there were to be a Blood Bowl RPG homebrew what would the forum suggest it look like?

I have in mind two varied ideas. The first is to keep it a D6 version and simple variant of the board game. The other is to use WHFRP second edition rules with some home-brewing.

A basic starting character would be per rules in WHFRP plus a bit of buffing up and a ridiculous Attribute in one category a free +10-+20 to DEX, STR, AGI etc. Then a sub-set of XP to be spent on Blood Bowl skills which would be Advanced Skils or Talents. Throw, Strip ball, Throw player etc.

As much as it would be easy to make it a D6 it would get in my mind stale extremely fast and there would be little variation of players on the pitch. I like the idea of a Rat-catcher with low skills turning pro as a Catcher in an arena type game. Not PvP but a set rules game.

I think the movement rules could be easily home-brewed to turn from feet into spaces on the pitch and tackling could be a WS test block a STR test, sometimes opposed. I just think in the end a fleshed out character would make a more fun PC to play than a D6 game where maybe there is some FUDGE to the rolls.

Just looking for thoughts and possible rules that come to mind. Would PC's like to have races such as Goblin, Orc and Skaven in the game or just the "Non-Evil" races on their team? What about Magic Users? Possible other positions such as Cheerleader or Assistant Coach or General Mangager? Would players rather start off as Star-Players or work their way there? Would PvP actually be a good idea? A regular 11 side or possibly a 7's a smaller scale Nuffle game?

A simple inquiry to the most deviant, dynamic and dexterous Warhammer minds this side of the Light Web.

Cheers.

Wrath & Glory Thread? Players? WHFRP 4e?

WFRP 4e

WFRP 4ed.

So, any interest in Wrath & Glory here?
