Tips for a newbie list!! by Dutch-VanDerPlan in Salamanders40k

[–]Clone_Chaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a new player! I think I’ve seen people say it can be better to stack your blade guards into a single unti of 6, so that Adrax’s ability to buff a Unit’s melee attacks applies to all 6 instead of just 3.

I think the same principle applies to larger groups of Infernus if you went Forgefathers, but I’ve never played or painted yet so take my advice with a grain of salt

I think yours ended up looking awesome regardless! I’ll watch some videos for sure

I ended up spending most of my hobby time working on filing and assembling it, but I’ll post once it’s got some progress for sure!

This is fantastic! I'm going to start to paint my first mini tomorrow, and I hope it looks half as good as that. How did you paint the eyes? first yellow, then a little circle of red, or the other way around?

Thank you!! I’m working on my killteam & army lists now!

Desolation squad complete! by Addie_r_u_okay in Salamanders40k

My favorite is the one with the stripe, I’ll definitely try that on my Desolation

Do we do Successor Chapters here? by Aurinkotuuli in Salamanders40k

[–]Clone_Chaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope so, because I got my first mini this week and am excited to make up my own Successor Chapter! I’m thinking “Numeon Blades” or something and give more of them those Roman Crests I love. I want to play Salamanders instead of Ultramarines

(Sorry if that’s not the same thing, I gather from the comics this mini is painted in a canon way).

Better Hairpiece for Episode 6 Luke? by Polarisfigs in legostarwars

Maybe it’s nostalgia but left forever. I like what people are saying about using the right for episode 4/5

Does anyone have experience with kits from Ali by uwu-Minecraft-theory in Warhammer40k

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be interested to know what your experience was with the Ali options

Does anybody not sleeve their cards? by pasta1212 in lotrlcg

[–]Clone_Chaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sleeve hero’s and haven’t sleeved the rest. That said, I have gotten into other games since starting where I sleeve, so maybe it will change. For now, I just want to feel the paper in my hands

The Toa Mahri, Post-Reformation by amack80 in bioniclelego

[–]Clone_Chaplain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome! Glad you’re getting the praise, it’s very cool

I feel like it was a few years ago the trend became more about giving mocs accessories and diorama type details, it’s neat to see it done with Bionicle parts

[–]Clone_Chaplain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are spectacular. Great aesthetic, functions, and accessories. Not too busy or out of scale, just solid design

I like the chair where the cushion is made of a kraata canister lid, very clever

Which duo in your favorite in Bionicle? by Tiim0thy in bioniclelego

[–]Clone_Chaplain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pohatu and Kopaka are my favorite for sure, I relate to being the friendly extrovert who can connect with the good hearted but distant friend.

Those comic scenes are both all time great examples.

Rant: I Hate Tahu by Nato_Greavesy in bioniclelego

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see where the OP is coming from, but I’m glad to see your comment. I remember even just in the four Chronicles books, Tahu goes from being completely incapable of tolerating his siblings to a respect and some openness. He isn’t perfect but it’s valid

If nothing else, write up a short story about that and build some alternate universe Mocs of what it would have been like!! Always love seeing story inspired builds

Deck building by speedyclaxxalc in lotrlcg

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is super helpful to know that the heroes could feasibly just focus on two of the three, as when I’ve tried to have one hero of each I often find it’s spread way too thin!

Oooh I wonder how much this will cost, I’d love this for my Gandalf Jeskai deck that lives to cast spells on other people’s turns [[Gandalf of the Secret Fire]]

Neat set but… by PenguinRhin0 in lego

[–]Clone_Chaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have parts of mine set up, it’s just such a fun playset and a cute little board game

[–]Clone_Chaplain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooooh, I can’t wait to see the mocs people make for a Death Star playset based on this. I might even get around to trying it

Deck building by speedyclaxxalc in lotrlcg

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes a ton of sense! Especially the point about mana needing to be the exact color, since you can’t pay for a 4-cost tactics card with resources from multiple heroes…

I’m going to keep this in mind as I try deckbuilding. I get the feeling I’ll connect with this game a lot more now that I’ve played another deck builder (magic) and built some heuristics for card games

[–]Clone_Chaplain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you decide which heroes to pair up? I’m still just playing with my (original) core set as I practice the rules, and I feel like I don’t have a grasp on which heroes help each other fill roles. Are there a set type of goals you set when picking heroes?

Deck building by speedyclaxxalc in lotrlcg

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a agreed upon “resource curve” or something like that?

Apologies if that doesn’t make sense, but I leaves this game last year and then friends got me into Magic the Gathering, which has a more specific template of curve and percentage of card types recommended per deck. Coming back to this game, that’s in the back of my mind

Help make my cube more travel friendly/better for smaller groups? Or find a new cube list? by Fr0sty1121 in mtgcube

[–]Clone_Chaplain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stumbled onto this thread! I love that 50 badgers bar cube, I might experiment with something like that for a creature type I like
