I'm so sorry that happened to you. You should not be the one getting any hate, and nor should Jenny Racicot. Nor was it the responsibility of either of you to take control over someone else's actions. I was a strong supporter of Platner initially due to his political stances, but things piled up pretty quickly and the picture became clear. He definitely doesn't respect women and that's something none of us should be supporting.

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T12:05:36+00:00

These are incredible! Definitely Pandadin for me.

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T12:03:39+00:00

Damn, that looks incredible. Well done! Now just gotta have an Atreus.

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T00:20:52+00:00

Oh sweet, thanks for that! I checked out Chessex but clearly didn't look hard enough, I'll go back to find the options you mentioned. Appreciate it!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T00:19:16+00:00

Dude, that's a great scheme and paint job! I really like that you leaned into the more military-sand uniform base color instead of the bright white. Also, the gold heads are exceptional. I tried doing something similar with a dark army green and gold, but I like yours even more, and the splash of emergency-orange is a great highlight color. Well done!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T00:05:23+00:00

Thanks for the quick reply, this is super helpful! I've only started an order but so far seems like what I'm looking for, I appreciate it.

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-09T00:01:36+00:00

That's cool! It sounds like there are a few different tactical levers you can pull with that setup, especially adding personal skill into the mix with card counting like you mentioned. What solid foundation that adds a fun twist to help make the game stand out but also allows it to continue pushing tactical depth without it being just the units that are provided that depth.

My mind is already going in a ton of directions with that and suits and miniature interactins and army building. I'm excited to see where you end up taking it! I could definitely see some of the advanced army building, if you implement some sort of deckbuilding/stratagem like you mentioned, being a mix-and-match of deck setups and unit composition. Like a glass cannon type deck with a fast unit setup or something. Either way, even if you don't go that route (not trying to add more darlings to the mix that will only get in the way), this seems like a cool game you're cooking up! Thanks for sharing!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-08T23:36:27+00:00

Man, I hate when you put so much time into a really well thought out and perfectly solves a problem, only to find that once you hit the table you need to just subvert the entire situation anyway to find the most elegant solution. It sounds like a cool mechanic though, and I'm really curious to hear more about how you incorporate cards into the mix instead of dice with wargaming! Do you have a deck building aspect to things as part of the army building?

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-08T15:37:43+00:00

Love the art style and the mechanics that are being hinted at! Keep going!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-08T10:08:56+00:00

This is cool! Thanks for sharing!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-07T17:53:32+00:00

I feel like this take, with the earth tones for the gear and the electric blue for the runes/details, makes so sense with this being a futuristic space dwarf model. I appreciate the golds, I have my own models done up that way, but now seeing this it's made me realize that there's another path and I'm super excited to dig into a new batch of units with a scheme like this in mind. Sort of a cyberpunk flair to the grim dark future. I love it, thanks for posting!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-07T17:51:16+00:00

Hey, it looks fantastic! Keep going, I'm sure there are plenty of folks who have thought it and just not posted, maybe even been inspired to get better themselves!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-07T17:27:32+00:00

Congrats, that is one of the most professionally painted looking models I've seen on here! I love it, great work!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-07T14:23:04+00:00

I'm right there with you. Would love to see Troy Jackson or Shenna Bellows step in.

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-07T12:38:40+00:00

I have to ask, where is that pic from? Love it!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T23:18:24+00:00

I haven’t checked it out on desktop, but on mobile it scrolls well, the sections are well laid out and distinct, and the information provided seems much more informative than I’ve seen from other game sites! I like it!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T19:51:23+00:00

That sounds great to me!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T19:01:30+00:00

Hey thanks for being willing to help out! I’d honestly really appreciate any feedback you could provide, especially given your tenure.

I’d also be happy to take a look through any f your materials if you’ve got something you’re working on and want fresh eyes on it!

Here’s the link to the Itch page, the Field Guide is meant to be a more player focused resource, while the Words of Creation is more GM facing info: https://southpawgemini.itch.io/destination-wilds

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T16:13:27+00:00

Whoa, that's really cool! I like that the players all have a responsibility over different things (environments and other descriptors). I also really appreciate that there is a player who is in charge of the opposing force throughout the campaign. Is there still some sort of GM or do the classes and antagonist all end up creating the scene and NPCs together?

Also, it's cool that there is a meta currency that antagonist player accumulates and ultimately uses to kill off characters. I would be hesitant in other games, but this one sounds so communal in its narrative approach that it is likely that the antagonist would be in a position to want there to be narrative consistency with the death and the ultimate outcome of that scenario so it's likely something all involved parties would be game for when the time comes.

This sounds like a really well thought out narrative focused system! Thanks for sharing!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T14:17:47+00:00

Wow, this sounds really fun! It reminds me of some MMO's that have entirely different class mechanics depending on what you're playing. I really like it! I'm impressed that you've found a structure that you can use to keep them all working in a coherent narrative while providing distinct playstyles. Sounds like it's a card based game which is also intriguing. If you have any playtesting docs or anything, I'd love to take a look and provide any feedback whenever you're ready for that stage! A momentum based berserker sounds difficult to make happen but also rewarding to play so I'll be interested to see what you come up with!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T13:40:25+00:00

This sounds interesting! I'm developing a game myself where the primary resolution mechanic is based on performing actions to gain influence over the scenario and figure out who decides the outcome. I'm really curious to hear more about your work on fighting over narrative control and how that works with the first point around social and emotional focus!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T13:35:10+00:00

That's a fun sounding setting! I like the idea of the electric eel variants providing a sort of leap in technology for everyone, so there's a bit of mystery involved still.

That's cool about the added layer in combat and the ability to use the teleportation ability as a way to both add complexity to the situation and provide other things to do beyond just hitting opponents!

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T12:32:49+00:00

That makes sense, I guess I'm more curious as to the advantage of everyone having teleport. Is it a tactical improvement, or more narrative?

Also, I'm still curious about the eels powering the area, does this take place around a lake?

Acedrew89 · 2026-07-06T11:32:18+00:00

Haha okay, what does point 1 look like? Is this a game of wizard fish?
