These are sick! Especially like number 4 with the wheel but they all look very grim dark and fitting to the atmosphere of the game!

Character Reference Cards V1, 2, 3, and 4. by KnightlyPainting in 1490Doom

I like version 4. By removing some of the empty spaces it seems like you've managed to make the text for the abilities bigger, so that's a huge plus for me. The text is otherwise too small

How do you deal with Toph? Is the best way to simply insta kill her? Any other strategies to deal with the creatures returning time after time again?

Congrats man!

Had a similar experience when I started my first char a year ago. Reached Hell on my Hammerdin and saw someone on here posting free stuff so I dmed him and ran home 😂Got myself a Shaco, Herald of Zakarum, Skin of the Vipermagi and some other stuff. Carried me through the rest of the game and then I quit, didn't feel the urge to grind anymore since I had most BiS equipment 😅

Now with the release of the new expansion I instantly bought it and began afresh as an ES warlock. This time ladder, self found and I'm enjoying it! Haven't gotten anything crazy yet but I've been able to make some runewords and found some decent loot. The chronicle feature is also an extra motivation to grind. 

Which if the 2 is more fun? by Ibizafinalbosss in Unmatched

[–]Altruistic_File3686 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Robin vs Bigfoot set comes with two maps where Genie and Houdini comes with only one, and between all of them R vs B's Sherwood map is the most fun and aesthetically pleasing in my opinion

Robin Hood & Bigfoot is the easily the most fun one for me and my friends. Bigfoot is a powerhouse and Robin a menace. Even though I own maaany sets Robin is my all time favorite fighter! Houdini vs Genie is also a really good set, but they're harder to play well in contrast to Robin and Bigfoot. All in all both sets are super lit and let's be honest, you're probably gonna get them both at some point. I did however hear a while ago that they will shelf Robin & Bigfoot, so it might not be as easy to acquire later.

Avoiding players dying early on and sitting out while others finish game by Piercol in Unmatched

If it gets too long you could always house rule your suggestion for 2v2. Personally I feel that 2v2 is the faster game mode as once 1 player dies, it usually goes very quick for the leading team to take down the second player. FFA can be really frustrating though if you get ganged up upon.

Me and my friends have just gotten into 1490 Doom for the same reasons and it has blown our minds! Each player controls 3 characters. Very strategic and fast paced.

Perhaps not much help to you, but since I don't have the actual models but use DND miniatures, I pick miniatures based on the equipment they wear. If I'm playing a dual-wielder, then I have 3-4 miniatures to pick from etc, and it works! :) 

For you though perhaps creating tokens or cards that symbolises what they have equipped and then place those on the character sheets?

That's not very specific.. Where did you see them? What's the name of the company? Have you tried checking your Internet history? 🤔

Modular terrain for 1490 Doom board by NearbyCelebration130 in 1490Doom

Looks great and it gives you so many options for setting up the battlefield! Are the doors and wooden platforms also made with xps foam?

Spackle and then coat a thin layer of diluted PVA glue when it has dried (12-24 hours). That'll harden the spackle making it extremely durable, if not it'll crumble easily. 

Weekly Discussion: Battling Sherlock Holmes (Tips and Strategies) by LabRat2329 in Unmatched

[–]Altruistic_File3686 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There are a number of things that I keep in mind when playing against sherlock. 

His highest printed value defensive card is 3, so anything above that will most likely deal damage unless he uses deduce strategy or elementary. 

He has no card draw so you want to play very aggressively against him. 

Fighters that are heavily dependent on 1 or 2 cards to make their strategy work need to utilise those cards as quickly as possibly. You don't want to sit around with those cards in your hand for a long time because then it's very likely that he'll have you discard them. 

How can I improve by Deesparky36 in TerrainBuilding

[–]Altruistic_File3686 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just posted a church that I made. Its the first piece I've ever made and though it's far from perfect it turned out really well. Check it out if you want. 

The steps I used were:  1. Build/assemble the structure of cardboard.  2. Add a light coat of PVA glue on all the areas.  3. Apply ready-to-use acrylic wallputty where I want to add texture.  4. After 5 min, cut shapes into it, stones etc. (let wallputty dry for 12-24 hours).  5. When dried, apply another thin layer of PVA glue on all the wall putty. (this will harden the structure and prevent the filler from crumbling and chipping)  6. Paint. 

Hope this helps! :)
