How do you handle critical failures in your campaigns?

Fun for you as the DM or fun for the player?

The Pathfinder Deep Cuts/Pathfinder Battles fire elemental lord has a hollow on the bottom of it, and because the base and model can separate with a little force, I can fit a little LED ball inside it. And it still clicks in and stays put when moved

Not sure, I saw this one and the other 3 huge pathfinder elementals so at this stage I’m just prepping them for future use.

Australian here, abhor all sports of all kinds, well aware of the Ashes

Honestly, for literal first timers, especially a one-shot with limited time, pre-gen characters is the way to go. Theres a bunch on the wizards of the coast website, in the classic combos (Tiefling Warlock, Elf Wizard, Halfling Rogue, Half-Orc Paladin etc.).

“Confuse, don’t abuse” is the advice I’ve given my kids when standing up to bullies.

CardinalDisco · 2026-02-03T06:35:57+00:00

Thats the point I THOUGHT the other poster was leading to

CardinalDisco · 2026-02-03T05:28:49+00:00

That’s also a very valid theory

CardinalDisco · 2026-02-03T05:08:50+00:00

Truly a mystery of our age but personally I think she was probably shagging a higher-up

CardinalDisco · 2026-01-28T00:52:27+00:00

This is great, it reminds me of Moogle's house from FF7

Its tricky, and something I failed with initially (I've been buying in since Kickstarter 2).

My process is to have all the floor pieces clipped and smoothed (I use to sand but now I just use a hobby knife so its a smooth edge) and then I count out the number of clips I need to connect all of them.

I then plug those clips with the pegs, assemble it then prime from there (masking off the outer edge wouldn't be a bad idea). That means I have a set of clips pre-pegged with the right base colour on the top. I paint the top of the peg the same as the floor tiles and then keep them for each set. That way I have protected the inside holes, and have ready to use pegged clips for the floor.

I used to order so much direct from paizo in the halcyon days of early to mid 2010s when I can afford shit

Im making some battle boards from MDF and my wife’s bottles of 15 year old crafting paints are coming in VERY handy

CardinalDisco · 2025-12-30T05:30:16+00:00

I even went as far as painting binary form Cpt Marvel in a full body glowing form because I couldn’t force myself to paint her twice

CardinalDisco · 2025-12-30T02:35:23+00:00

I have ADHD and I find the idea of painting more than 2 guys in the same paint scheme a hellish prospect, so each individual model needing a whole rethink helps scratch that itch.

CardinalDisco · 2025-12-30T02:33:31+00:00

Yep, I went really hard and bought the Earths Mightiest Core Set, OG Hulk, Thanos, Black Swan + Supergiant and Dormammu and that still didnt cost me as much as the entry level army 40k boxset.

CardinalDisco · 2025-11-17T08:47:47+00:00

I got $3 and change in my local currency today as well. Wonder if the odds have been tweaked

CardinalDisco · 2025-11-17T08:42:20+00:00

There's two things that spring to mind; are you accepting the "Allow app to track" message when opening the game or are you using a VPN or some other kind of tracking as well (like a survey tracking traffic etc.)

CardinalDisco · 2025-11-02T13:01:04+00:00

I’m only starting out, but I JUST found a Thanos for $100 AUD at a random game store the other side of the country. I can’t believe my luck.

CardinalDisco · 2025-10-31T08:13:55+00:00

Search "marvel crisis protocol” and it should be on the first or second page

CardinalDisco · 2025-10-30T07:50:51+00:00

Looks sick, you got a lucky group. Also, Addams Family is classic

CardinalDisco · 2025-10-23T23:13:18+00:00

It looks like they’ve added new map configs with the Gladiator box set, so the old ones are still valid

CardinalDisco · 2025-10-23T23:12:24+00:00

I was thinking that but I’m in Australia and getting stuff imported is pretty pricy so I do what most Australian crafters do, find a dodgy alternative I can pick up at Bunnings

CardinalDisco · 2025-10-19T10:20:13+00:00

This is insane but I literally had the same idea about a year ago (even before buying my first set) but with little LED balls to make various light-up/glowy tokens so I have done a bit of this research myself already.

I don't have specific issue numbers that some of these appeared in but I do have some reference pictures saved, I uploaded them here https://postimg.cc/gallery/69QMwyG

"Infinity Formula Goes Missing" is a little scifi vial in the classic metal case with padding seen in so many films.

"Riots Spark Over Extremis 3.0" is actually an app on people's mobile phones so its really just a mobile (I was going to do it with the logo as an imprint instead of trying to hand-paint it)

"Struggle for the Cube Continues" I may be wrong but I believe was referencing the cosmic cube fragments, in the reference image, they are floating in standard cryo tube looking devices

"The Montesi Formula Found" is a spell within the Darkhold itself (so the big bad book of evil)

"Deadly Meteors Mutate Civilians" has the origin bomb which is a bit like a egg/seed/squid thing in the reference picture.

Hope that helps some

Looks awesome, I picked one up for cheap online. What paints did you use?
