Only War - an odyssey into 5th Edition 40k

So a little over a year ago, a group of friends and I started to get back into Warhammer 40,000 - specifically the old 5th Edition rules. We agreed that was the rules we all enjoyed the most and found easiest to pick back up and being older, wasn't being updated more frequently than we were playing games. Personal preferences aside, that was something we all found as deterrent to trying to learn new versions of the game and most of the current range or our existing collections covers the 5th edition factions well enough.

To further ease people back in, I began fixing up existing armies and building new ones that our group could use as 'rental armies'. Giving our players a way to learn 5e with a pre-built army or to trial things they might want to buy themselves.

Here, I'll drop some links to individual posts for each of these armies to showcase them:

Kellogg's Khorne Flakes - World Eaters

The Disciples of Skuldak - Word Bearers

Over the last year, our quiet little 6-person days have swelled to an average of 16 players. And as the group has grown and become mor invested, we've even begun home-brewing rules for units and factions that either never had rules in 5e or were introduced later. In time, I'd love to show some of that off here as I'm more than a little proud of what my friend and I have come up with so far!

The Gotham Base Ball Club of New York

Photo by Cashel Stewart Originally posted on my other blog the Trav-a-log, the contents of which I am in the process of transplanting here, so that it will all live in one place! On a recent very hot August afternoon, I and my progeny hiked to a very remote corner of Queens, to a very tiny playground, to see an obscure team play an arcane version of baseball. The Gotham Base Ball Club of New…

When the Robins were too young to convincingly pass as drivers, they'd always insist that Bruce drive them to school or anyplace they were running late to, because Bruce's extensive illegal racing experience meant they were guaranteed to make it there on time. Or even early sometimes.

Here is another portion of that goofy victorian interaction

Can you tell im really enjoying their nose dynamic(💞)

Tbh the Legend of Baskerville theme from this series is a total banger, and considered a love theme (by me). Go listen to it on youtube now!(minute 25:55)

Having a lot of thoughts on the Baskerville episodes from this series being the most mysterious and entertaining (to me), especially as a kid, due to the soundtracks, almost complete absence of Sherlock, sudden change of setting to the countryside, etc., etc.

The last time i rewatched it though, they just appeared to me too long, but its probably because i was busy drawing throughout the sequence. I have to re-check sometime soon.

Prompt 261

“So is no one going to talk about the eldritch space child or…” 

“I mean, do you want to get between a child and Batman? I think the only one who could even get close right now is Superman…” 

“No you’re right, I think- oh my god the eldritch space child is playing with batman’s bat-ears and he’s not doing anything about it what the fuck I thought only Robins could get away with that-”

House-husband ex-soldiers, that is all, I don't have anything else, have fun with this brain worm wiggling about -🐸

no, no— come back, the CoD men but like… The Way of the Househusband by Kousuke Oono

Househusband!Simon Riley whose dark, brooding eyes are reading a cookbook, small apron clinging around his muscles. he’s been trying to bake cookies, and he’s great at following instructions, but something just isn’t adding up in his head. Simon who befriends the local grannies, bringing them their groceries and fixing up their homes and yards in exchange for baking lessons

Househusband!John MacTavish who makes cleaning a challenge for himself. he’s got a duster and vacuum ready to go, a stopwatch in hand. his record for cleaning for the entire house, room-by-room, was roughly an hour and half. you come home to find Johnny sweaty from running around, lounging on the couch with his little duster discarded on the coffee table. all he does is glance up at you with a lopsided smile, “Hour twenty-six today, mo ghaol.”

Househusband!König whose roaming the local grocery store. he had to run out to buy groceries last minute, cooking dinner paused when he realized he was missing some ingredients. just a quick run, that’s why he’s walking through the store in his slippers, dinky little apron haphazardly shoved into his back pocket. the odd mix of “intimidatingly large man” and cute slippers throwing off other shoppers as he carries a little basket through the store

Kingdom Hearts 3 - Nobodies

[laurrelise]

one of my favorite parts about that scene in season 3 episode 7 of the umbrella academy is right after the umbrellas and sparrows “contained” the keugelblitz and celebrate by opening several bottles of alcohol and partying, because in every single shot ben is in, he’s either trying to get himself or five as wasted as possible

Imma need to read about street kids Jason and Billy meeting because these two are on opposite ends of the homeless twelve years old spectrum and by that I mean I can't believe Jason was the one who got accidentally trafficked*:

Jason: *successfully steals 3/4 tires of the batmobile, says "who says I took'em" and "try and catch me you big boob", hits Batman with a tire iron, successfully escapes capture for a couple of blocks, really makes him work for it.*

Billy: *is accosted by a stranger in a turncoat at night asking him what he's doing here*: "I am homeless and I have no money so I sleep in the subway because it is warm." /The stranger: "follow me."/ Billy: *immediately fucking does.*

Like, if I were Shazam I too would be giving Billy godlike abilities, because with these preservation instincts that looks like about the only way this kid is gonna live through the winter.

*I'm talking about Ma'gunn, pretty sure that counts as child trafficking.
