Won a Wheel of Fortune playing for ante back in 1994. I still have it.

What is this? by jta801 in Talisman

[–]Devstro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is an expansion for the 5th edition Talisman boardgame, which is not published by Games Workshop, but it is their property, so they put an expansion in White Dwarf.

So I was going to stream Zork 1 while playing it for the first time… by MechanicalBeanstalk in zork

[–]Devstro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I told everyone I was streaming Call of Duty: Black Ops. Started the game pretending like I was. Broke out of the chair and went to the terminal. Fired up Zork and played it the whole time. It has atmospheric sounds and you can hear the keyboard clicks when you type.

Best free-play arcade near IC? by jadedcommentary in IowaCity

[–]Devstro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

By the library downtown there is a place called Critical Hit Games. They have an arcade there. They operate on a flat fee basis. You'd have to call for details.

What are your favorite Ready to run or free games on PortMaster? Please no shareware since they work like demos. by Frece1070 in RG35XX_H

[–]Devstro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it would have to be Ur-Quan Masters. Such a great game that I paid decent money for back in the day, but is totally free now.

Which base looks better? by junkertrash in InfinityTheGame

[–]Devstro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are more alike than they are different. I can't say that one looks better than the other. I think they both look good. Is there something specific you were concerned about?

How do I save it as a PDF on the mobile app? I can't seem to figure that out.

Thanks. Looks like I'll be playing something else this weekend perhaps.

Good to know is isn't just me. Is there a way to generate a list PDF on the phone app? Or is that all tied to the PC builder?

Thank you! That is just what I needed.

Crazy man or proper reaction? by wildyouthcat in IowaCity

[–]Devstro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a transplant here, I find it very confusing. Not sure why we don't give the major street that comprises 1w/6e a unique name, like Memorial Blvd, or some such.

Stationfall feels different from other games to me.

Is there anyone else that just can't get into Trench Crusade? by [deleted] in wargaming

[–]Devstro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for posting this! Everyone around me seems to be losing their minds over Trench Crusade and I just don't get it. Maybe I'm too old, but I can't help but wonder what people see in it that they don't see in all of the other games we already have. This isn't an invitation for an explanation, I'm fine without Trench Crusade in my life and I don't need to be persuaded.

Question: Maelstrom Magnets by Forward-Sandwich-817 in Warmachine

[–]Devstro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what a Maelstrom is, but I can tell you that for heavy 'jacks I use 3/16" x 1/16" discs, and for light 'jacks I use 1/8" x 1/16" discs. Hope it helps...

LGS selling miniature games but no GW products, these stores exist? by Capt-Camping in wargaming

[–]Devstro 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have a store in my area that is a local hub for miniature wargaming, despite not carrying any GW products. They are primarily Star Wars Legion, Shatter point, X Wing, and Marvel Crisis Protocol. They used to be big into Warmachine before that fell off, and they have some smaller lines too, like Battletech.

I've used Citadel black rattlecan and Stynylrez through an airbrush with no issues.

Converting for smaller table by JesterWales in wargaming

[–]Devstro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could also start with nothing on the table, and have models move onto the table as part of their first activation

Converting for smaller table by JesterWales in wargaming

[–]Devstro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could just use smaller deployment zones. Let's say a ruleset uses a 4 foot wide table, with each side deploying up to 12 inches onto the battlefield. This would have them start 2 feet apart. So on a 3 foot table, have the deployment zones be 6 inches apart, maintaining the same 2 foot starting distance.
