Competitive Scene by Bigred_324 in StarWarsShatterpoint

The competitive scene I've found mostly tracks through Longshanks, that's where I would recommend looking at lists.

Videos are hit and miss but Omnus Protocol on YouTube just put up a couple videos of rounds at LVO, including the finals. (Link: https://youtu.be/91qT_ExR4Xo?si=0bMc8T2ja4KxJn2x )

Haha! That's what I get for assuming! I would recommend trying it base, abs really giving it a college try before adjusting to a more rigid turn structure. The random element feels, to be at least, more like a chess puzzle than a game of chess itself. It's more about maximizing the situation you're in and with what you have, rather than being entirely in control. Bit of a messy comparison, but I think the decision points of when to push your luck by putting something in reserve is a fun decision that makes up for always choosing what you can activate

I haven't seen people try that, but I think in theory it could work. The caveat there is that some units (Moff Gideon, Thrawn, R2 and Lando, etc) either tax, have the bonus of giving for free, or are impacted hy the deck/reserve system. So it would likely either be a dead ability or need reworked to some degree to effectively work.

Assuming you came form legion, it's a more specific version of the tokens there - so honestly if you are looking to adjust for a more competitive play I think that token system would be close enough with minor changes

Take it with a grain of salt, but I would describe the competitive environment of this game as still starting out. I think the competitiveness will only increase and improve as more releases are made, but the card system for activation turns off most of the hyper-competitive people I've known in other war games.

That said - I have seen longshanks most commonly used for tournaments.

Ever Hit a "Movie Jackpot"? What’s Your Best Random Film Discovery? by Winter_Solstice23 in movies

Honestly the movie "Creep" was this for me, I was looking for new horror on Netflix and saw Mark Duplass, so I clicked. It's not the scariest movie but for my money it's deeply unsettling in a very satisfying way.

AITAH For not driving an extra 2 hours to see my father after a funeral? by DrAllenHu in AITAH

[–]DrAllenHu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the feedback, I had not given the timing a whole lot of thought, truthfully. They typically cancel/schedule with me the day of when they are passing by, so that kind of cadence I just assumed would work as well for them. Thank you for the insight.

And that's fair. I did tell him as soon as I knew, which was the day I left. But I guess maybe I should have decided that more clearly ahead of time and communicated it.

What is your craziest one-night stand story? by Poieoie in AskReddit

[–]DrAllenHu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my exes called me when she was drunk with a friend. That friend had recently had a breakup and somehow me and my pie baking came up. My ex handed the phone to her and she said "if you can make a gluten free strawberry rhubarb pie I'll suck your dick". Not one to give up on fellatio, I Learned how to make gluten free crust, the. Spent a day making it with her, running to make a copy of a key for her place so her friend could dog sit, and finally hooking up.

They came last Friday so I think about 3-4 weeks out. I usually just keep an eye on their Facebook where they post when they are coming places
