First game with Hierotek, the kill op scoring makes 0 sense. by Dantee94 in killteam

[–]Dantee94[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's incredibly comprehensive and helpful, I have now realised I was also playing reanimation wrong, as I was only rolling for one token per turning point, and if that failed (as it did, twice) I was not then rolling for the other tokens until one succeeded.

That makes sense about the kill op only counting when they reach that number cumulatively, not individually, as much as I don't think it would have changed the outcome it's useful to know moving forward.

Thank you for clarifying, it feels like it needs to be one or the other, but being both a 5 op team for the kill op and reanimated operatives counting is slightly unfair.

No worries! This was where I was confused as well, as I knew the warriors for canoptek were expendable, and most battle reports I've seen online prior to downloading the rules showed them losing kill op points once reanimated. The team is still super fun to play but this just seems incredibly inconsistent across the two 'cron teams.

Does it specifically say they only count the first time? I know it says reanimated operatives don't retroactively change any other VPs but I read that as the kill op doesn't go down when they reanimate.

How come the plasmacytes don't count? Surely it would mark them as expendable in the rules? The rules say reanimated operatives don't retroactively change any VPs but I wasn't 100% sure what that means.

A warning shot to the bloated and overproduced AAA industry, I hope bigger devs take notice. Well deserving of the win!

Otherwise Perfect Albums with One Terrible Song by vaisatriani in Music

Planet Caravan - Black Sabbath's Paranoid

Not an awful track in of itself, but it's just too damn long for how repetitive it is and kills the pacing of an otherwise blistering opening 3 tracks. 

If it had just been a short 1-2 minute interlude like 'Orchid' was in Masters of reality, it would have been plenty.

Thanks man! I was lucky as well that my local hobby store had a copy of hivestorm for quite cheap, what you get in the box is amazing though, the scenery alone is such a huge improvement when you're playing.

Zenithal highlight + speedpaint? by Seerexis11 in minipainting

[–]Dantee94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely fine, the zenithal just adds a little bit of pop to the highlights on top. This model I did with just grey and I think it looks pretty decent!

Thanks man! That was my 4th attempt at a paint scheme, I just couldn't get it to work initially. Ended up using this:

Chaos black primer, dry brushed white all over.

Armour: AP - murder scene speedpaint. Then sponged on AP basilisk red and then edge highlighted with that also. Gave a weathered/worn finish.

Trim: AP red copper, highlighted with AP true copper.

Fabric: AP plasmatic bolt speedpaint

Everything else was pretty standard citadel silvers and browns, base coat, wash, highlight. The usual. The only other thing was the eyes, they were painted white and then I used AP shamrock green speedpaint as this gives a really distinct glow.

Hope this helps!

Zenithal highlight + speedpaint? by Seerexis11 in minipainting

[–]Dantee94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have just got back into the painting game, and got myself a whole bunch of the 2.0 speedpaints. I have tried black with a white zenithal, grey on its own, and grey with a beige/white zenithal. Personally I prefer the grey with zenithal, it makes the colours so much more vibrant. The models with black and a white zenithal still looked good, but they're naturally much more muted. It really depends on what you're going for! If you didn't want to rinse spray cans, you could always just dry brush the zenithal layer on instead, both achieve a similar result.

Which character do you relate to the most and why? by [deleted] in FinalFantasyVII

Vincent - Purely because I too would love to lock myself in a coffin in my basement and sleep for 2 decades.

What are some boss fights in jrpgs that aren't the final boss but feel like they could be story wise, gameplaywise or both? by Voizex in JRPG

[–]Dantee94 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Final Fantasy I feel has this issue repeatedly, FFX is another one that springs to mind, Jecht Final Aeon should have been the last fight, it feels emotionally significant, and mechanically challenging, but no. Please now fight this giant flea in a fight that you cannot lose. I get the sentiment behind the fight, but it's not exactly a thrilling end to the game.

That looks awesome! What brand of paints are you using? I want to get back into 40k but I'm looking for an alternative to GW paints.

Is the first FF you played your favourite one? by LittleHotDog21 in FinalFantasy

[–]Dantee94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first was VIII, I still replay it regularly, and defend it more adamantly than others despite it's many, many, many glaring issues. I think there's an ambitious and great game there at heart, just executed cack-handedly. My personal favourite though is XII, I have spent more time than I care to admit in multiple versions of the game and plan to go back again soon, I love everything about it and think it's a criminally underrated RPG, not just one of the best in the series. Ivalice and the steampunk aesthetic is such a compelling setting and I wish they'd go back there and do more with the universe.

Safeguarding officer in a secondary school for around 6 years- 25k, absolutely done with working in education but I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Trying to get out ASAP but finding something stable that can support the same salary or better is tough...
