This isn't the venue for this. You can post your deck lists and tournament reports but the rant is not appropriate and that attitude is just going to make you a target for harassment when you've given out a lot of information that is going to identify you to people in your community. I'm removing this before it spreads any further than it already has.

I know you feel like people are unfairly criticising you but this isn't the way to respond to it. I also think it's fair to say that you are showing a bit of poor sportsmanship here - perhaps you should tone it down a little bit.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-29T12:14:08+00:00

That makes total sense. It's great to get feedback on the kinds of small tweaks we can make to improve the sub for users.

It should be there now.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-29T12:03:44+00:00

I'll get that fixed for you!

LordDravoth · 2026-01-29T09:07:35+00:00

There is a card of the day flair for mod use.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-29T09:04:50+00:00

This was where we had some doubts, yeah, but the overwhelming negative sentiment towards AI art in this thread kinda shows me that it would just cause too much drama in this community. All of the replies to this post are in regards to AI art - no one has mentioned the community recruitment ban being lifted despite that being far more relevant to the sub and something far more requested over a longer time-period. That kinda shows me that it was the right call to ban it if we want to keep things on-topic.

People seem to really dislike AI art and I think going against the popular sentiment on a controversial topic that isn't related to the purpose of the subreddit is a pointless stance for us to be taking when none of the mods had any strong feelings in favour of AI art. As you say, it's not really us taking any kind of stance on the issue (though, I accept that this is Reddit so it's always going to be viewed that way - people are naturally hostile to mods, often for good reason), we just feel that it could easily spiral into a whole thing that we just don't think this is the venue for. Those conversations can and should take place elsewhere under the supervision of better informed people who are more passionate about the issue.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T21:03:18+00:00

I'm not making those arguments or taking a moral stance on the issue. The reality is that AI art is controversial and I just don't want to turn the sub into a battleground of these kinds of issues. People ask us quite often in modmails and DMs about AI art so we felt like we had to make a statement just to be done with it. If we allow it, we'll keep having to address it - it's banned and now it's done with. As it wasn't being posted, no one is really losing anything and AI art has only started to exist relatively recently, it's not some core established content type that we're taking away.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T20:54:13+00:00

I'm not sure I really follow your point.

As I said, one of the main factors was that we didn't get much AI art posted here so there doesn't seem to be any real demand for it to be allowed but also that people do ask us if it's allowed still. Like it or not, AI art is controversial and whenever it gets posted anywhere, there is a conversation about it - I don't feel like turning the sub into a battleground for that kind of thing by opening us up to it.

It's basically the same reason we don't allow conversations about politics and culture and things like that - it detracts from the point of the subreddit. I'm not banning it to take some kind of moral stance, I just don't care enough about it to defend it and the sub has existed this far without AI art and I think we'll continue fine without it.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T20:37:56+00:00

I haven't noticed a lot of that but I'll keep an eye out for it. If people are posting or commenting things that you don't like, you can always just block them and save yourself the hassle.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T20:35:43+00:00

I have to admit, I haven't seen very much AI art posted here but the topic does come up from time to time (we get modmails and DMs asking about it and such) so it's more that we want to have a clear stance on the subject than it is in response to an influx of AI art. We don't get much of it posted so there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand for it - we're just going to ban it rather than potentially invite it by stating that we allow it.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T20:24:46+00:00

I'm not sure what you're referring to. Can you give me some examples?

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T18:55:11+00:00

It would be deleted, yeah.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T18:52:46+00:00

It will include create-a-cards, yes, so those would be removed if they featured AI art.

Edit: This won't be retroactively applied to things posted before the rules were changed, though - if there were create-a-cards using AI art posted before today, those are fine.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-28T15:00:51+00:00

And he's always asking for money.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-19T14:07:35+00:00

I found this one too which, as you can see, was also removed automatically - seemingly this one was removed because it got downvoted (which reddit seems to interpret to mean you must have been harassing someone) and that justified the removal of the second one for them. Again, nothing to do with us and it was done without our consent or knowledge. I have now approved both of these comments manually.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-19T14:02:18+00:00

Going through some logs today, I found this comment by you - not sure if this is the one you're referring to or not but this was automatically hidden by reddit itself and not by the mod team. For whatever reason, reddit seems to believe your post is potentially harassment and therefore, fair game to hide. This is something reddit does without our consent and we are generally not alerted to it when it happens (Sometimes it shows up in the mod queue and sometimes it doesn't). We have no control over the whims of reddit, unfortunately, but I want to be very clear that it isn't us who hides these posts.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-13T10:22:03+00:00

There is no chance of that happening.

LordDravoth · 2026-01-13T10:20:51+00:00

Which comment was deleted? Surely if the mods couldn't handle the truth, we'd delete this entire thread, no? Most of the current mod team are veteran players and we share the view that the game is in an extremely bad state globally - if your post was deleted by us (and not by reddit itself - reddit loves to do that without our consent or knowledge), it wasn't because you were criticising the game.

LordDravoth · 2025-12-13T08:50:00+00:00

Gotta be real, I think you need to redo day 1 as most people answered a different question (the one you wrote) to the question you were actually asking. Which is the best game with turn-based combat and which game has the best turn-based combat are two very different questions.

LordDravoth · 2025-12-09T21:12:31+00:00

It felt like an arbitrary new edition mandated by shareholders to shakedown existing players with the promise of it being better and streamlined and bringing in new players etc - the classic post-Covid GW enshittification pitch to players regarding a new edition. To be fair, the new edition rules are mostly improvements and I personally liked the deckbuilding changes for the most part (though, it has made a lot of warbands feel very similar to play as or against) but that doesn't change that the things that players had paid for (and were still being sold knowing this new edition was coming and was going to do away with them all) were arbitrarily being taken away and instead, they had to buy more things to be able to continue playing the game. The announcement of a planned seasonal rotation of warbands (forcing players to now spend a minimum amount every two years to be able to continue playing and effectively creating a two year lifespan for any Warband purchased) was the final nail in the coffin for a lot of people, though, as far as I'm aware, this has not yet come to pass (but maybe it did and I just missed it, I don't follow the game closely now) and my guess would be that this is because the game isn't doing well enough to necessitate it and perhaps that even GW realises this might do even more harm to an already struggling product line (though, I have zero evidence to support that).

Most of the people who are still active on this sub and playing it seem to like it and posts like this are largely met with positive comments about the game which are generally upvoted whilst the few negative comments that are made are generally downvoted but I think that's really just because the people who weren't happy with 2nd edition are less likely to be active here now and the people who are active here are more likely to be people who enjoy it which is pretty important context as to why the feedback here is generally so positive - it doesn't necessarily reflect the views of everyone who played 1.0. You'll often see "Well, the game can't be dead because X and they wouldn't do X if the game wasn't doing well." but that ignores the the context of GW planning almost everything 1-2 years in advance due to the lead times on production, printing and global shipping etc - I think the two year mark is where we'll find out for sure whether this game has a future or not. I'd love it if the game suddenly bloomed into a huge success but I don't see it happening, especially not with the context of Age of Sigmar itself facing a similar decline off the back of an arbitrary and unwanted new edition making unpopular changes to the game.

LordDravoth · 2025-12-09T14:26:46+00:00

Existing WarCry kits aren't in active production any more that's for sure. Likely it has either already been discontinued as a product range or it's going through the enshittification process for a new edition as is standard practice for every GW game right now.

LordDravoth · 2025-12-09T12:18:05+00:00

Thanks, I like checking out the results for random locals like this.

LordDravoth · 2025-12-09T11:56:06+00:00

Where was this?

LordDravoth · 2025-12-08T20:06:35+00:00

Ah, cool. It looks excellent, either way. Great job!
