Hey Veeky Forums, /pol/ack here. I used to think these games were for sheltered degenerates, but then a bruder of mine explained it. Basically, your character spends their time as part of a small group, a "squad" if you will, inflicting death on subhuman races that seek to overthrow civilization. Well, that sounds just crackerjack to me! My question is, should I start with D&D 5e, or Pathfinder?
I also heard that gnomes are a race of short, deviously clever "illusionists" who always seem to have funds for their devilish inventions, have large noses, incessantly cause trouble, infiltrate other societies while maintaining primary loyalty to their tribe, and yet despite never contributing anything of worth are considered "worth protecting" by the contributing races like dwarves and men. Is this perhaps...a subtle reference to the merchants?

>gnomes Come on, boyo. Dwarves are the Jew stand-ins, everyone knows that. Hell, even Wagner knew that.

>implying Dwarves aren't the equivalent of the Japanese, virtuous allies who aren't of the Volk.
Elves might as well be communists though.

Leo Davis
Fuck off /leftypol/ and take your GURPS with you.
Michael Thompson
Dwarves are obviously Jews, Tolkien's dwarves language was even meant to sound semitic. Dwarves are also tg's favorite race, so OP can fuck off back to /pol/.
Landon Anderson
you should start with D&D.
IIRC gnomes are known to occasionally eat (dead)people too.
just remember, any cultural or setting data in the books are just sugestions. and you can change whatever you'd like about that.
just don't jack about with the numbers though, balance is important to having an experience that is challenging. where's the fun of an ethnic purge if its too easy?

Dwarves are literally jews

ITT: Gnomes lie, as they always do, to try to divert blame onto honest, hard-working dwarves who earned their gold through honest labor rather than an usurious banking system.
Around gnomes, burn their homes.
Daniel Cooper
>My question is, should I start with D&D 5e, or Pathfinder? For you? Pathfinder.
Hudson Hill
>Considering DnD >Considering giving shekels to Jews of the Coast Pathfinder's still shit, tho. Play Mutants and Mastermids, but with a fantasy spin on it. Seriously though, OP, this bait is painfully obvious.
Liam Garcia
Good evening, do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and Saviour, Zarus, god of Humanity?
Asher Barnes
Numerical fuckery is for ovendodgers, a white man fears no balanced encounter. May I ask why D&D over Pathfinder? As a traditionalist, naturally I lean towards your suggestion, but more information is always for the best.
>IIRC gnomes are known to occasionally eat (dead)people too.
To think they finally went beyond foreskins...sad!
Jack Reyes
The entire plot of the Hobbit is basically a metaphor for Zionism.
Carson Moore
Yes. Yes I do.
Christopher Johnson
Actual /pol/ack here, your bait is much too subtle, work on it. Keep fighting the good fight! Praise Kek!
Jason Bennett
Is it even bait at this point? It's more like someone just handing you food and inviting you to converse with them. OP is open about where he's from and what he wants, it's only bait if you define bait as "everything that triggers me."
David Rogers

Jackson Green
>May I ask why D&D over Pathfinder? ease of entry, D&D is the easier of the 2 you suggested to get into.
Colton Parker
Well, they say a picture paints a thousand words. Pic related is Zarus in a nutshell.
Julian Hernandez
Fuck off neckbeard
Carter Harris
What's so cringy about that? It's just a father and his mentally handicapped son, taking a photograph of themselves in support of a cause they believe in. I can get the kekistani cringe, but this isn't any worse than typical liberal cringe.
David Watson
D&D 5e is newer, more balanced and has less bloat in as far as books are involved. Pathfinder is based on the older, less balanced, 3.5 edition.
Jason Cook
>two regular-looking men who can't do a Roman salute right are as cringy as the neoleft.
Snnrk
David Hill
/poltg/, I have a question of dire importance: Is it gay if it's an Outsider?
I mean, as natives of an extraplanar realm and beings who are less so physical beings and more so Living Concepts Make Flesh, is it really an issue if they look like ladyboys? They're not really guys; the masculinity and lady-penis only make it better!
Carter Flores
Pathfinder is also incredibly degenerate and packed with gay shit.

If they don't have a proper sex it's not really gay or straight, is it? Now, if they're a single dadmom, then you're just a cuck and should kys, but otherwise you're probably fine.
Christian Torres
Honestly if you have to ask then I think you already know the answer.
Jeremiah Scott
Why not play WW2 games where you can literally play as Nazis and crush [race/races you don't like]
Lincoln Evans
If there is a penis on the thing you are fucking, and you are a guy, that shit's gay.
Elijah Sanders
I know that Half-Elves are degenerate, but are they REALLY as degenerate as Half-Orcs? I mean, Elves are close to honorary-tier.
Aaron Harris
Because America is OP and Russia will just throw endless mooks at you because their godawful government system means their lives suck no matter whether they live or die.
Ayden Stewart
>not genociding elves
Astalphon, get the Scroll of Fireball.
John Barnes
Nah. wargame designers make sure that the Wehrmacht are OP as fuck.
Elites with StG-44s everywhere, while Soviets lack any competent command and control (there is a "Hens and Chicks" rule for Flames of War that mean Soviet tanks cannot move out of formation - to represent their lack of radios and usage of flag communication) US armor is generally paper-thin and 88s will push its shit as soon as they get line of sight.
Even if the designers don't make the Wehrmacht OP, they generally try to make the games very balanced. You take the historical units then give them points values so that all games are balanced.
You could even play as Finns smashing commies if you want.
Tyler Jenkins
Jaffa calling.
Nolan Ross
Oh, you were being serious. Yeah, those are fun, but it gets boring to rehash, you know? A Conanesque (Howard was /ourguy/) or Norse Myth fantasy game is a lot of fun too, and I really enjoy Warhammer.
Luis Sullivan
Money ova bitches.

Garithos was the real hero, especially with WoW's retcons about the origins of the naga.

Were there any good elves in that setting, besides Illidan?

What were the retcons? I'm only familiar with WC3's lore on the Naga.

What "gay shit" are you talking about? I'm legitimately curious.
James Lopez
>You could even play as Finns smashing commies if you want. I play fins in FoW >smashing it's closer to, lamant that I've got EW soviet weapons with LW german fv prices
Evan Edwards
as I understand it, its more of a meme than anything.
but really its that the internet minority that posts so much gay shit on places like /pfg/ giving it a bad reputation.
Andrew Turner
You're welcome, OP, hope you're staying for a long time.
Owen Sullivan
I laughed
William Lee
Take a look at the head of the gnomish pantheon. His name is Garl Glittergold. Perhaps you should revise your assessment a little.
Benjamin Sanchez
>100% straight unapologetic bait thread >52 replies This is why people keep walking over this board
Juan Scott
Gee user, you're right! It's almost as if people ran with the obvious bait and - wait for it - actually had some honest fucking fun. Crazy, I know.
