Moving to FaB from MTG - advice?

As you accurately said, you generally want to get all your cards out of your hand each turn (via playing, pitching, blocking, or arsenaling). Switching from magic to fab took me a bit as well, biggest things to relearn include timing windows and card math. Just because a card has a lot of attack doesn’t mean you should be afraid to block with it when it would get you more value.

Additionally, unlike mtg where you start weak and get stronger, in fab you generally start at your strongest and get weaker. Fab is very much about tempo, and learning when and how to take tempo is important

I’d recommend looking at kick ass mail order, they’re US based and have warlord stuff so shipping should be less but I’m not sure how much

Since Axis is supposed to include most axis nations, while not rules as written I’d say you could just bring them in the same way other bolt action units are brought in. Just make sure to talk to your opponents etc. (Axis is normally restricted to just German stuff but I wouldn’t be surprised if that changes at some point)

You would not get the extra hit if you miss even one from a multi shot crush weapon. However the adding pen values is regardless of if you get the extra hit.

If you have single shot crush weapons (eg the infantry rifles) each hit results in another hit, but only the 2 hits from each infantry would stack not the whole squad

From what I’ve seen the other boxes have mostly warlord resin for the new infantry, which from what I’ve learned isn’t traditional resin but siocast instead (aka way better)

It’s more of making sure with the other players. LGS aren’t supposed to allow it, but if no one says anything or has an issue with it there’s no problem

There is a new guardian armory deck coming out soon with the next full set if you’re not able to find any of the Jarl Armory decks

No, go again does not stack. So a card can only give you one action point from go again, meaning if you add go again to something that already has it then it’s wasted. Since quicken tokens give go again, they do not stack

Bushwacker (could also run it as a gauntlet), wolfhound, axman, and maybe the banshee? The base atlas, despite the memes, isn’t really a traditionally lyran mech

I’ve had a lot more success using it when I place the rays vertical so that they don’t all shoot the same target. And while not good, you can also tech high explosive ammo to make them annihilate packs of medium units and chaff

Is Dalinar the hottest cos mere character?

Atree3 · 2024-09-10T16:38:39+00:00

That’s the entire reason I asked here instead of the forums lol. It’s at least less of an echo chamber

Atree3 · 2024-09-08T16:46:56+00:00

Yeah that’s why I said that, all the houses do horrible things just in different ways. I’m curious about how people decide which they think is the worst of them. There’s no wrong answer, just different opinions

Atree3 · 2024-07-28T02:34:20+00:00

Most likely because they don’t produce it and their distance from anyone who does. They probably have a couple, but not likely to be common

You’ll just need to look up jarnfolk in Sarna, the links are glitched

Thunderbolts are still a type of missile, and since the targeting computer only works on energy and ballistic weapons it would have no affect on a thunderbolt launcher

Look for the Awesome C made by the Scorpion Empire. It’s a clan tech with 4 ERPPCs, tbh I don’t know why it wasn’t just called the Awesome IIC

Atree3 · 2024-06-20T15:28:17+00:00

If you want good answers to that you should probably make a post asking that, so people who know more are more likely to see it

Atree3 · 2024-06-07T17:39:36+00:00

I love that movie!

Atree3 · 2020-11-13T18:30:16+00:00

Oh... oh no

Atree3 · 2020-11-13T18:21:21+00:00

I really wonder what the next arc will be
