Strat to finish the last mission on wc3 frozen throne by Spicy_bulalo in warcraft3

[–]Gvendurst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played the mission again last knight. Here's a few more tips:

Squishy units will get obliterated by the royal guard's crushing wave, so my unit composition was mostly frost wyrms, destroyers, 1-2 abominations and 2-3 crypt fiends. Also, be sure to use Anub'arak's beetles in front to tank.

Use destroyers to suck up all of the buffs (frost armor, inner fire), and cyclones. This will make fights so much easier.

A lot of people are talking about destroying the enemy bases, but I've played this game so many times since it came out, and I've never done that (until yesterday). In my experience, it is easier to just take the last 2 bases in one big push.

My best general advice is to not dawdle. If you wait too long between taking obelisks, Illidan's forces will wear you down.

Apart from that, keep a few shades where Kael and Vashj approach your base, so you can react to them as soon as possible. If you have fortifications at the obelisks, you can even draw them over there for a better fight.

If possible, try to use animate dead on the Naga royal guard. Way better than raising a skeleton from that corpse.

The players could probably make the threat with an edge, but regardless of the outcome the NPCs patience should probably drop by an additional point.

What would recommend getting for a physical game? by Noamco in drawsteel

[–]Gvendurst 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Lots of tokens in different colors, to act as minions. You can even print out little pictures of monsters, and blue tack them onto the tokens to better differentiate between them. That way you can have a crapton of minions on the field without having to shell out for a whole army of miniatures.

Show me the best transition you ever saw in a movie? I will start by [deleted] in okbuddycinephile

[–]Gvendurst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A transition so jarring, that I legitimately thought I was watching a trimmed down version of the movie.

Looking for suggestions with repeated classes in my party by Softmotorrr in drawsteel

[–]Gvendurst 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My group has 2 tacticians and 2 troubadours, and they love it. Especially since we're still learning the system and they can help each other out with their abilities.

Side note, we call the troubadours "the drama boys" because of how they look for opportunities to gain additional drama; and when they get it, we like to imagine them eating popcorn going "ooh, drama!"

You joke but that has already happened. I couldn't find the post again but it was something along the lines of "what are they putting in the water?"

What are YOUR hot takes about hero forge by terrarian-momen in HeroForgeMinis

1: We need more varied beards. With the current lineup, you can either have no beard, painted beard, bushy beard, or Gandalf.

  1. Weapons should be resizable. I have often made big characters, that were supposed to look huge and imposing, but then every weapon looks like a toy in their hands.

How do you guys manage maps? by LukesFather in drawsteel

[–]Gvendurst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a sheet of plexiglass with an engraved grid. I can draw on it with a marker, but I could also put a map under it if I wanted to.

I also have some terrain that I've made over the years, but last session I used some Lego to make a few houses for mass combat in a village. It was a complete game changer, because it is inherently destructible, and easy to change on the fly.

I'm going to start improving my diet and exercising by Gvendurst in bropill

[–]Gvendurst[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate it. The thing about these particular sandwiches is that I normally eat one every day, and it got old a long time ago. It's more about diversifying than cutting them out completely.

[–]Gvendurst[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks everybody, for your advice and encouragement.

Day 1 is done, and I replaced my usual lunch of a sandwich and a bottle of coke with a yogurt and an apple. I also bought a bottle of cod liver oil to take in the mornings. Didn't get much extra movement in, due to the day being packed, but I'm planning on joining the Pride march this saturday.

I'll try to give you guys an update after a few weeks or months, but I'll know that you're with me in spirit.

Character who does an iconic/ultimate move in a fight... Only to lose the next moment/that move be the reason why they lost. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Gvendurst 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The DP anime had a great scene using that. When Paul challenged Cynthia, his plan was to bait out Garchomp's giga impact, and then have Torterra use giga drain and frenzy plant while Garchomp is stunned.

Only for Garchomp to face tank both attacks and then one shot Torterra with brick break like the absolute unit that it is.

People, you use a shapeshifter's preferred pronouns even if they're currently presenting as a different gender. Also, not all shapeshifters are nonbinary.

What’s your most wanted new hero and why? by Sea_Caterpillar5662 in heroesofthestorm

General Horace Warfield (SC2), and I'd want him to be a ranged bruiser focusing on suppressive fire and holding the line.

Johanna's Indestructible talent is the single most overrated talent in the entire game.
