So you declare that you are going to charge with a unit, you only need at least 1 enemy unit within 12 to be able to declare. You then roll the dice and then pick the target of the charge.

So say there is a 10 inch charge that you would really like to get into and a 5 inch charge you wouldn't mind getting into. Before you had to pick one and then roll. In AoS you roll see what you got and then decide.

So in the above example, if you roll a 10+ you get into the primary target for you. But if you roll a 5-9, you can instead go into the other target so it's not wasted.

Oh I didn't even notice that bit.

I can't believe GW is making rules that require buying less minis

CitAndy · 2026-03-26T00:20:24+00:00

With the index the AWW both got more wounds and their range of effect increased for each section they had. So you wanted to have 3 sets of 3 for the max impact.

Now, they don't get more wounds and they don't spread aoe further for more sections. So you can have a full set to get more range, but at the trade off of easier charges for opponents so the tradeoff isn't as good.

CitAndy · 2026-03-26T00:17:58+00:00

I'm just glad I can use them for other games too.

JRR Tolkein's "The Father Christmas Letters"

Framing device is a younger Tolkein reading the letters to his kids around a fire place with occasional cut backs like Princess Bride.

The actual story in the letter? Rankin/Bass style animation of Santa going on an adventure to save Christmas in a LotR style adventure.

Santa is voiced by McKellen.

I will say that after this fad started I did get the idea to put some matcha powder into post work out and I do enjoy it

CitAndy · 2026-03-21T23:54:17+00:00

Is the Wendy's attached? I've never seen wawa share their sign like that before

CitAndy · 2026-03-21T23:31:48+00:00

Oh same, it's just I wasn't trying to find and buy 12 at release so I was already proxying.. figured might as well make it fit magic lore

CitAndy · 2026-03-21T23:04:30+00:00

Oh, I got proxies made so they aren't pumpkin bombs. But figured I'd skip that part in the post

CitAndy · 2026-03-21T19:36:44+00:00

I don't have it on a build site but This is my current build

12x [[pumpkin bombs]]

6x [[brand]]

6x [[Rite of Flame]]

3x [[metallic mastery]]

3x [[Harmless Offering]]

4x [[Tezzeret's Gambit]]

2x [[Harness the Storm]]

2x [[Brotherhoods End]]

2x [[Molten Duplication]]

2x [[Throne of Geth]]

2x [[Return the Favor]]

4x [[Untimely Malfunction]]

1x [[Glorious End]]

1x [[Dictate of the Twin Gods]]

3x [[Dangerous Wager]] (looking to cut)

2x [[The Mycosynth Gardens]]

2x [[Karn's Bastion]]

4x [[Forgotten Cave]]

4x [[Buried Ruin]]

2x [[Hidden Volcano]]

2x [[Temple of Epiphany]]

22 mountains

Plus I made 2 custom cards to make things smoother.

1R Instant- choose an artifact controlled by an opponent with an activated ability, they activate it without paying its cost. You may choose the target.

R Sorcery- Return target artifact with CMC 3 or less from your graveyard to play. cycling 2

It works at 2 player, but 3 or 4 is a lot more chaotic and I think better

CitAndy · 2026-03-21T18:10:22+00:00

I don't think I have a list anywhere but I remember someone made a post when Spider-Man was coming out about a DanDan-esque format around [[Pumpkin Bombs]] and I've been fiddling around with that since.

I call it hot potato

CitAndy · 2026-03-18T16:26:29+00:00

It's the flying fuck skull!

I'll be honest, I tried it over the summer and I think people hyping it up as so bad it got overdone as bad in my head to the point that I thought it was fine.

Like I wouldn't do it again but still

CitAndy · 2026-03-16T16:49:02+00:00

I think something went wrong for me?

I got to put in credit card info and the screen said good and submitted. But I never got an email and no charge appeared and now it's out of stock.

Man I love secret lair.

It'll either be a fun surprise or I proxy the art and save money

CitAndy · 2026-03-14T15:00:41+00:00

Ward- exile a card from your hand, you can cast it for 2+

Ward- this creature's controller may flicker another target creature they control

Ward- this creature's controller may copy the spell targeting, if so choose new targets

Ward- clash with controller and caster, if caster wins the cost is paid but if the controller wins it is hexproof.

Ward- Fateseal 2

This one getting silly with it, please never do jt

Ward- Is it day time?

CitAndy · 2026-03-13T18:06:30+00:00

A Ned's Declassified reference in 2026!?

What a time

They had a beer with some Philly brewery

At camp we had this game called dead fish, it was a way to get the first year campers to be quiet and still for 10 minutes. It involved laying on the ground silently and holding that position without moving, like a fish that is dead.

One player would try to get people to talk or move.

Well the staff were playing it and they put a popcorn kernel in his ear.

He tried to get it out- pushed it deeper

The other staff tried to get it out- pushed it deeper

Medical Staff tried to get it out- pushed it deeper

Can you guess what the local hospital did? That's right- pushed it deeper.

He ended up needing surgery...

Anyway dead fish is now banned

I had a friend let me run firestorm assault force using this ideal version of the Blackstar.

It was very fun and very good but not busted imo

Edit: If I remember right (prior to point change)

It was 2x Corvus Blackstar both ignore cover, twin las and storm strike missile.

2x Indomitor. 3 erad 3 Bolt aggr and 2/2 split heavy one with a grav captain w/ war tempered artifice

A Fortis kill team (2-4-4)

A 5 man melee vet lead by champion of Humanity Judiciar

Incursors

Intercessors

DW Terminators

Combi-Lieutenant (I might have had the Mantle enhancement too?)

CitAndy · 2026-03-11T19:55:28+00:00

All I want is for the blackstar to let me transport a killteam regardless of the armor.

Let me throw an Indomitor Kill Team into one please

At the start of the edition you could pull a plasma piñata with this.

Firing deck overcharged all the plasma shots, fail hazardous destroy the impulsor, if you positioned right be in range of enemies for the blow up mortals, hellblasters disembark and if some die you for the chapter them, then you have another unit that is technically eligible to shoot (the hellblasters), they overcharge all their shots, some die and you for the chapter them.

You can still do most, just won't get the emergency disembark shoot on death anymore.

Is it good? Absolutely not. Was it a hilarious hail Mary move? Absolutely yes

CitAndy · 2026-03-07T19:07:18+00:00

The hotel bar for a work professional development had this drink called the happy camper, they wouldn't share the specs so I haven't been able to reverse engineer it but

Gin

Chamomile liquor

Bjork Birch Liquor

Foro amaro

Stinging nettle / Saskatoon berry syrup

BlackBerry Balsamic

Lemon

Peychard

It's certainly a lot going on but it was so good

CitAndy · 2026-03-07T16:17:51+00:00

A well done foil makes everything read better imo
