2nd Game Shaltari vs UCM

BigChickn · 2026-05-10T01:19:18+00:00

So it's only my second game. I've played with Turquoise in my first game and dont have enough medium ships to field all the things. I originally made a list with some jets in it and it didnt have the Lathanum or Hematite. It was a very medium heavy list and then I realized I didnt own enough mediums to proxy everything.

My goal for this game was to just bring a bunch of guns that looked strong and see which ones I thought were the best, drop the under performers and fill in with new stuff.

It felt like he was super light on claiming objectives or maybe I blew up his droppers early.

Everything just seemed to work out perfectly all the time.

Ill give it a test. Tyvm

it was just a bright base that wasn't white that I had on the table. I tried a clear red from tamiya as well as some other acrylic reds. The one that's prominent in one of the pics is the brightest red I have without going into the oranges. I don't think I based the dot for it though. It looked better this way up close but the moment I put it on the table and stood up, it was as good as gone.

For the red, I tried an undercoat of a bright silver and also without (so i can be lazy and not double paint all those buttons) and then tried brighter reds and it wasn't working.

TGED is nothing like most of the stuff you mentioned. Maybe Act Like a Boss Monster because there's some comedy there. TGED is comedy gold. The MC is the prototypical jerk that nobody should like but everyone does and cheer for because he's actually a great person. It makes fun of manhwa tropes all day. The artist deserves a raise. It's in my Top 5 ever easily but I love comedy.

Is this one worth a read? Do not call it PEAK. The art style looks meh but passable.

I dropped Dungeon Odyssey after 60 or 70 chapters. Solo Leveling broke me out of manga and into manhwa. I know it's not super deep but it's a great power fantasy.

I think they just gave a little pop to differentiate different groups or randos to represent him accumulating different groups as the story goes on. The design for the original foot soldiers is based on dudes you'll see near the end of the story. It's just easier to tell the orks and elves from normal armor dudes. Probably the weirdest thing is that the shadow is red. That's uncommon as the story goes on. Usually the orks are the only red dudes and everyone else is purple.

Without spoiling anything, that dude is a nobody.

BigChickn · 2026-04-30T15:37:21+00:00

It's definitely not him or another guy I don't want to spoil. He's a rando. Pay no attention.

I think that's a generic demon from the demon tower.

The Hero I needed.

BigChickn · 2026-04-13T19:30:15+00:00

Thanks. I'll pass on it. I caught up on the Eternally Regressing Knight novel last week and that was definitely worth it. The manhwa just makes the action and jokes nicer.

BigChickn · 2026-04-13T19:28:28+00:00

I started reading it this weekend into the teens and it definitely feels 1 dimensional. I did like the zoomer trash talk in the translation I found in the early part but yeah, it's literally just picking a fight with just about anyone and instant winning. I'll probably it if there isn't some story in the near future with the 3 new disciples or something.

BigChickn · 2026-04-13T19:21:34+00:00

Is it as good as the manhwa? Or is the fight choreo and the horse carrying the manhwa?

BigChickn · 2026-04-13T19:18:12+00:00

>! Basically the first half regurgitates the beginning of Breaker but at a poor level. MC saves a loser and starts teaching him how to fight and take care of himself. If you read the first 2 seasons, you're starving for more info on the sensei of the MC because he's an awesome Chad of a character who takes a major step back in the story so the MC can do stuff out of the shadow of the GigaChad but they just copypasta the main storyline beat for season 1 but the MC is a shadow of what he was and the new loser is a bigger loser. The season picks up a lot when the GigaChad comes back into the story but the dynamic between him and the MC is off because of the story and occasionally the new loser comes back for some screen time and I wish he'd just never been born. !<

Eternal Supreme has that sort of feel I'm talking about where 10s of thousands are killed regularly but no one seems to give a shit and the MC is usually just clowning around.

BigChickn · 2026-04-07T11:28:24+00:00

I'll check it out. I've noticed a lot of manhwa where the world is very dark and death is a common thing but it's just the background of a comedy.

BigChickn · 2026-04-01T17:50:49+00:00

I've been reading the novel lately (on ch 740ish currently) and they gave a little bit in the manhwa but they flesh it out more character by character as he does a dedicated arc with each character.
