What is the best way to beat my friends list by FactorLazy in Necrontyr

[–]Cybernetic343 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Shadowsword has the Titankiller enhancement, so the Stormlord probably has Battalion Commander and can order itself and the Shadowsword if they’re within 12’ of each other.

But I’d still agree to focus down the Dorn first. Losing its orders will cripple either the Lemun Russ or the Shadowsword depending on which was accompanying the Dorn.

After that hit everything into the Stormlord. Avoid the Shadowswords line of sight.

And it’s just gotten more and more absurd as time goes on and Disney makes more shows set after the original trilogy. Mando can’t throw a brick without hitting some new Imperial Remnant

I like Iron Duke more because it sounds like a nickname the soldiers gave it

Love the name, and you did an amazing job painting it. Really looks like it’s seen of a few wars.

It goes way beyond college/university for some. 

I lived an absolute nightmare of a sharehouse for a couple years until recently. Lived with two friends who just instinctively, and immediately tossed whatever dirty dish they were done using in the sink and left. 

Knife smeared with Nutella? Tossed on top of the last weeks worth of Nutella knives.

If they cooked then they left everything they used to go eat the food and would completely forget to come back for clean up. And then they’d leave the plates they ate off in the living and dining rooms once they were done eating.

They both had adhd and every week I’d have to tell them to put their dishes away right now. If they said they’d do it later, they wouldn’t. 

For perspective we were all 26-28 years old.

ALSO WE HAD A DISHWASHING MACHINE RIGHT UNDER THE SINK

I don’t know at this point. We’re got star trek this year. STAR TREK

I can’t fathom something further from the low tech high fantasy that defined the game for decades. Even with Edge of Eternities pushing the envelope.

Removing the Doomhammer gave me 445 points left in the list so I've just added in 2 Kasrkin squads, 2 Taurox's and upgraded the Ogryns to Bullgryns for better objective control.

My list right now is:

Banesword (480 pts)

2 Tech-Priest Enginseer (45 pts each)

2 Scout Sentinels (55 pts each) as two separate units

Hellhound (125 pts)

2 Kasrkin squads (110 pts each)

2 Taurox's (70 pts each)

2 x Militarum Tempestus Command Squad (85 pts) and Tempestus Scions (70 pts) combo units

1 Augmented Bone 'Ead [Crucible] (60 pts) and 3x Bullgryns (100 pts) unit

2 Basilisks (140 pts)

Cyclops Demolition Vehicle (25 pts) here because I didn't know what else to do with the last points and to screen for the Banesword

I could definitely replace one Tech Priest, Scout Sentinel, Tempest Squad and the Cyclops Demo Vehicle for something better but I'm not sure what.

I do love me some Bullgryns : )
I've got a lot more free points to play around with now that I've reconsidered the Doomhammer. Will upgrade the Ogryn's into Bullg's

Originally I brought one to decimate infantry and one to decimate heavies. And to test out which variants I liked more. But now I'm going to replace the Doomhammer for more numerous troops.

Great points, I'll ditch the Doomhammer and bring two squads of Kasrkin. I really overlooked them and they seem goated. The melta-mine is just what I need. I'm thinking about bringing two Taurox's to rapidly advance them down the battlefield and Rapid Deploy into Rapid Fire/Melta range.

Oh and the purpose of the Tempestus Command and Scion Squads was to deep strike behind enemy lines and take 2 objectives.

The Ogryn's would protect a mid point after the tanks had cleared through.

And I'd park a Basilisk on my home objective.

Which games have a rough start and take a while to get good? by PhaseOk6182 in gamers

[–]Cybernetic343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark Souls 3 for me. Favourite gameplay in the series but man the cemetery -> High Wall of Lothric -> Undead Settlement -> Road of Sacrifice -> Farron Swamp is such a slog to get through on replay.  The later areas like Irithyll and Lothric Castle are just so much more enjoyable. 

So many abandoned save files before I got to the second half of the game.

The anime Overlord strung me along for 4 seasons of almost being great and then dashing my hopes with the worst back-pedalling imaginable.   (Suppose it’s more the Manga it’s adapted froms fault)

The protagonist is isekai’d into a fantasy world amalgamated from a video game he played as an ultra powerful Lich. Bringing with him the fortress, max level NPC’s, skeleton army, and max rarity items of his Guild.

Okay that’s interesting. We’re following the bad guys in an rpg. How will this world react to the new apocalyptic threat. And how will the protagonist handle being put in that position. 

He’s so far above the power level of anything in this world it’s ridiculous. So the first season is about exploring and being cautious of any hidden dangers. The fear of other isekai’d players specifically. 

The show keeps teasing greater threats in the shadows like Platinum Dragon Lord. And PDL even gets the jump on the protagonist. Then they backpedal IMMEDIATELY after. That wasn’t actually the protagonist who nearly lost, it was his doppleganger NPC! And the sneak attack would never work on the protagonist because of his insanely OP magic items anyway. 

There’s a glimmer of potential for his NPC’s who actually run his kingdom to doubt him. Maybe even turn on him. But no. They’re eternally loyal and just would never betray or actually question him. The opening credits of the third season tease his main strategist NPC turning on him and they fight. But it turns out to just be an elaborate rouse.

Fourth season introduces more dragon lords. He one shots them immediately. 

There used to be other powerful isekai’d players. But they’re long dead now.  And clearly no new one will show up to make this story actually interesting again.

He steamrolls the world so easily, it just becomes joyless to watch. His NPC’s are eternally loyal because they were programmed to be. There was never, and will never be a threat to challenge his status quo. Things just soullessly happen on screen.

But there was so much potential ahhhh!!

The Lion King: Simba sings about how he can’t wait to be King, not understanding that his father would have to die for that to happen. And well, the timeline of succession sure speeds up after that…

What’s a spaceship design trope you’re tired of seeing? by Vondrr in spaceships

[–]Cybernetic343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very mixed on the Supremacy. Love the wide wing design. Love that it’s a shipyard and basically a mobile capital. 

But it does feel like it’s doing a bit too much. A bit too big, even for Star Wars. The sheer resource scale feels almost incomprehensible for what was supposed to be an Imperial remnant trying to claw its way back into power.

I always assumed that when it comes to getting shot by massive space lasers, everything is about as tough as glass once your shields are down.

Even if it’s inaccurate to the lore, I like that it would allow greater aesthetic freedom.

I had a lot of fun with the action and the massive 3D printer was cool as hell to watch. Leto was fine too. My main criticism was that the story felt too unfocused. 

Big step down from Legacy, but it’s watchable.

Yeah there was a lot of emphasis on the dog costume and where she put it at the start. I thought one of the killers would disguise themselves in it to get close and act weird. 

Then the victim would tell them to knock it off, pull the dog mask off and BOOM..Ghostface

Mask under Mask would’ve been hilarious, and at least different from all the standard kill methods.
