Ok, so I've seen that there is a few D&D games on the front page, so I figured that I would break up the monopoly with a game about everyone's favorite crap-sack universe. Before I can start, however, I need some slight help working Gametable, and to make a story (as I doubt my improv skills). Give about a week. You can spend that time making character sheets, discussion, whatever.

Note, I only have the basic DH rule book, so I you wish to use anything from the other books someone else will have to come in a confirm that for me.

[Cthulhu]

Here's to hoping we don't have a million guardsmen like last time.

[Luke_Prowler]

Agreed.

Oh, one question Cthulhu: how do I make/upload new pogs?

[Cthulhu]

Save this image somewhere accessible.


Open GIMP

Open the above image and the image from which you want to make a pog.

Select a square (Has to be perfectly square, use the size-indicator at the bottom of the image window) section of the image you want to use for the pog.

Right-click, go to Image, click crop to selection.

Same as before but click Scale Image instead of crop to selection.

Resize the image to 64x64

Create a new layer

Copy and paste the gray ring onto this new layer.

Use the Magic Wand tool to select the four triangular areas outside the ring.

Hit Page-down to go to the layer with the bulk of your image

Hit Ctrl-X to remove everything outside the pog.

If the area outside the pog is white now, use the Transparency tool (I can't remember off-hand where it is, it might be in the Colors section) to make it transparent.

Save as a .png in the pogs folder of your gametable folder.



Profit!

[Luke_Prowler]

...I guess I'm going to have to download GIMP as well...

[Cthulhu]

Any quality image manipulation program (By quality I meant not MSPaint) will do, if you already have one.  I don't know how to work any other than paint, though.

[Luke_Prowler]

Ah, that's good. PS Elements came with the computer.

CJ, where did you make make your character sheet? I've never heard of "Noble Born".

[Neruz]

Far better way to do Pogs:

Download Tokentool

Open Tokentool

Pick Icon Border

Drag image into Tokentool

Use mouse wheel to rescale and mouse click to center Border on where you want to make the Token\Pog\Thing

Save Token\Pog\Thing

[CJ1145]

Ah, that's good. PS Elements came with the computer.

CJ, where did you make make your character sheet? I've never heard of "Noble Born".

http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/dhadvanced.html

Here. I think I see the problem though... It says "Advanced" in the url. Perhaps it's in a supplement, or a different version?

[Luke_Prowler]

That was the same site I used to make my CS. I guess it uses all the supplements.

Still, I salute you, not many people would be a guardsman with only a 15 base WP

[Cthulhu]

Noble Born is from the Inquisitor's Handbook.

[Luke_Prowler]

Oh, then it's a good thing I'm...uh..."getting" a copy.
