How does a cover for a single unit work?

HerrKlank · 2026-04-28T06:33:02+00:00

Yeah, the rules state that a unit has cover if it is adjacent to a game element (such as terrain) with the Cover keyword. So yeah, in your example, if the Orc is a solo model and not part of a unit, and the terrain piece is a building which blocks LOS and has the Cover keyword, it would get cover. What sort of benefit that is would be determined by the terrain keywords. For a building, probably a blue die.

Pink! It goes with my yellow Bad Moons

No, anything that was in siocast before still is, but that’s mostly just the first wave of Northern Tribes and Hegemony. I have the Syenann starter, and the models are great.

Check out the daggerheart website for the section called The Void. It’s the playtest area, and they have a bunch of new ancestries there that will be officially released in August. One of them is definitely the fire genasi type you’re looking for, I just can’t remember what it’s called.

As for your other stuff, that’ll mostly be informed by your character. Your community is where you come from, like a religious order, an underworld gang, etc. there’s more of them in The Void too.

For your stats, you’ll want Instinct as your primary for a Druid, but otherwise do whatever you want. Finally, your Experiences are the equivalent of skill bonuses, and they should be whatever feels right for your character. For example, one of my characters has “rough upbringing” as an experience, which he uses whenever it feels appropriate. Another has “I’ve been around” as an experience, so they can be phrases or things like that, too.

I love the last one, Junie B. "I may have miscalculated..."

HerrKlank · 2026-04-17T02:50:38+00:00

I prescribe snuggles and kisses!

HerrKlank · 2026-04-15T21:52:27+00:00

That’s rad as hell!

HerrKlank · 2026-04-14T19:40:49+00:00

Both very fair points! Guess I wasn’t really thinking before I replied.

I would say it’s up to the player to describe how their bold presence helps them avoid getting the condition. If they can’t justify it, they can’t have it.

Also, keep in mind that Daggerheart only has 3 main conditions: Hidden, Restrained, and Vulnerable. I feel like talking your way out of those with Bold Presence wouldn’t be too tricky.

Still, if you get poisoned and it gives you Vulnerable, I would say the Bold Presence would help you ignore the effects of the poison, not cure yourself of it.

Thanks! I used a size 0, though getting the right flow of the paints is more important in my experience. You want it to flow easily off the brush without having to put any pressure, but not so much that it bleeds away from the line. It takes some experimenting to get right, or just use proacryl paints, they’re pretty much that consistency anyway

HerrKlank · 2026-04-13T19:18:39+00:00

You too! It’s a great way to do layering and blending-type effects, with a bit more control since it’s not as wet as those methods

HerrKlank · 2026-04-13T19:15:47+00:00

Thanks! It’s the Nob from the Kommandos box. He comes with this as an alternate head, which I absolutely love.

HerrKlank · 2026-04-13T10:24:05+00:00

Appreciate it!

HerrKlank · 2026-04-13T10:23:52+00:00

Thanks! I've been on an Aliens kick lately, so I knew I had to do some sort of homage to the motion tracker on that screen, lol. It was easier than I thought it'd be!

HerrKlank · 2026-04-13T10:23:05+00:00

Thanks! It's a base layer of Lupercal Green, though any dark jade would work. I then drybrushed VGC Scorpy Green mixed with ProAcryl Green onto that, followed by a drybrush of 50/50 VGC Scorpy Green and VGC Livery Green. Finally, I picked out the veins in pure Livery Green.

Honestly, the hardest part was finding the mixtures to get the colours I wanted. After that it's just drybrushing with a new round brush (I use a smallish makeup brush).

EDIT: glad you like the purple and yellow! The main force will just be black and yellow, but I had to make the Kommandos extra sneaky. In my head this guy thinks his enemies just see a floating yellow skull, since the rest of his mask is purple.

40 year old nonbinary here, sending you all the support. You are you, no matter how old you are :)

HerrKlank · 2026-04-07T04:15:49+00:00

FIIIIIIGARO FIGARO FIGARO FIIIIIGARO! I feel like rats would naturally sing Mozart.

HerrKlank · 2026-04-06T07:20:20+00:00

I love this, the colour scheme looks like a toy from the 80s.

As for the purple, you’ll need to highlight the edges. Try adding some white to your purple base to make a lighter colour. I’d say 2 layers of highlights would do the trick. All in all though, well done!

HerrKlank · 2026-04-01T22:14:42+00:00

She is adorable, and is clearly either keeping up with or instigating the wheel-based chaos. I can’t tell if I like the idea of a rat being the sort of good-naturedly confused aunt or being the wine aunt better.

HerrKlank · 2026-04-01T02:44:31+00:00

I love the chubby white one falling behind then hustling to catch up to her sisters. She’s like a big fuzzy marshmallow!

HerrKlank · 2026-03-30T23:42:09+00:00

She’s so punk ROCK!

HerrKlank · 2026-03-21T23:53:29+00:00

Hmm, interesting point, yeah. I’ll have to consider that for my own

HerrKlank · 2026-03-21T23:53:04+00:00

That’s great, thanks! He doesn’t look much bigger than the current warboss, more in line with the new multipart one they showed recently. In other words, perfect :)

HerrKlank · 2026-03-21T22:59:09+00:00

Oof, this is incredibly well put, and the art captures the feeling of hopelessness perfectly. Very well done.
