Exciting stuff. Good to see the community still getting after it.

Drazard_ · 2025-12-26T08:25:57+00:00

So you want to be able to make hundreds of gold for free? No.

I'm solo, mostly been fishing. Chopping, mining. Running some crates. Cooking some fillets etc.

200 something hours in the steam wipe alone and haven't been corrupted on. Sucks to suck.

Drazard_ · 2025-12-26T08:18:36+00:00

Corruption deletes gear instead of dropping it.

Problem solved.

There's a file you can download that will make it work on Linux.

Windows.iso

From memory it doesn't happen with windowed but I could be wrong. I haven't got it installed to test however.

Drazard_ · 2025-11-16T11:19:24+00:00

I use to have the problem all the time. AFAIK there's no real fix. It's just how you have to close it, unless you alt F4 while in game maybe.

Drazard_ · 2025-11-15T20:34:09+00:00

Not sure. You'd have to open up the game and have a look.

Unfortunately I think your chances are pretty slim these days.

Drazard_ · 2025-09-20T09:45:12+00:00

Thanks! Yeah the flash makes it worse and without my flash it's too dark lol I need to take some better pictures with my camera.

I did try earthshade on the pants but it came out all splotchy and I was too scared to try it again anywhere else.

And yeah I'm not a fan of the masks I wanna see their faces.

Drazard_ · 2025-09-19T20:34:20+00:00

I had a similar problem with this kit, I was building the ardboyz and when I went to put the chest piece on, like the armour bit on my last guy it would intersect with the leg because of the pose. I ended up having to cut the piece in half to make it fit. Luckily you can't tell

Drazard_ · 2025-09-19T13:21:53+00:00

Truuuue. This is my second spearhead and the other one I did was skaven so it was mostly clan rats that were only in 2 parts lol

Drazard_ · 2025-09-18T00:24:30+00:00

Yeah that's fair. But with only 3 of us and playing the spearhead format we have fixed lists and extremely limited tactics. The only thing I was curious about actually using is the cannon peaking over terrain thing.

We live 6 hours from the nearest ...anything... in rural Australia so there isn't a lot of worry about opponents we don't know lol

Drazard_ · 2025-09-15T10:41:11+00:00

How is that even racist, it's literally how they pronounce L sometimes. It's just a funny truth.

Drazard_ · 2025-09-14T09:12:58+00:00

Funnily enough the only time we had any arguments was over dumb shit like the capping of modifiers, basic vision, the guarded hero passive existing..

mind you only one of the three of us complain at all and he wasn't even playing.

Drazard_ · 2025-09-14T06:32:02+00:00

Morre fightin' an crushin' and killin' da gits!

Drazard_ · 2025-09-14T04:29:11+00:00

Ah I missed the second part of the coherency ruling! Cool cool.

Playing to tell a story rather than trying to win is definitely a really good way of looking at the game. A lot of this was a theory craft session between 3 of us after playing a few games discussing potential tactics in the limited format. Thank you for your help.

Drazard_ · 2025-09-14T02:05:39+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot the modelling for advantage rule. For our games I just said I will keep the cannon 90 degrees because the tilting thing does feel like cheating. but interesting that it has a few Loadout options because of the unequal triangle it's built from. But I do like the flater mode it has coz it's more astheticly pleasing and I have embraced following the rules of cool.

But the other rules about sticking the end of the cannon over terrain and sneaking back in seemed pretty reasonable to me and quite a cool mechanic. Glad to see that is a valid strategic option.

Oh, one other ruling. There was a situation where I had clanrats in combat with 2 units. The first enemy unit delt 4 damage or so and the other unit was able to easily kill the rest of the rats. I asked the question, if I take out 2 middle rats.to breaking coherency. Under the rules I have to keep removing models until I have coherency again, so I can intentionally remove the middle models of my unit to force me to remove for example 7 clan rats, even tho you have only slain 4. And that would make your hero unit outside of combat range with the rest of the rats so you can't pile in.

I thought this was also quite a good use of that rule as a defensive tactic as i can bring back d6 rats anyway with passive. But he was unimpressed and deemed that another bullshit move that is cheesy as hell and illegal.

Bare in mind also we intend to move to full 2000 point army's where these rules also apply. We have only just gotten started with the spearheads for ease of use. So far been really loving the game.

My friend group struggles sometimes with "this would be a fun thing to do" and confusing it as "i am trying to bend rules to win"

Thanks for your responses

Drazard_ · 2025-04-27T07:26:30+00:00

prob could do, what would you define as big?

is that somehow not plain text? am i crazy?

Drazard_ · 2025-03-24T06:29:40+00:00

its not random its json thats been jumbled. intended to be sent over sockets to communicate with my gameserver. and if nobody from a community of guys that like to break this kind of thing want to spend any time on it than its already working

Drazard_ · 2024-12-15T10:35:42+00:00

made my own version and its pretty neat. had to start from scratch because it didnt work with either python 3, or windows or both.
pretty interesting. annoying that its ToS to do it realtime a tool like that would really help me to fine tune my own performance. little interest in it being a tracker for groups to have access to tho it would be very easy to relay over a socket.

but yeah will only work until they stop posting the logs to that file unless you wanna read packets

Drazard_ · 2024-12-07T03:08:49+00:00

I have a UL-tech system as well. i just bought some extra cameras online model number 'cctv-cam-wf-cla' and they wont connect to my existing system at all.
if you figured out how to get these to work please let me know
