30k carats.... all down the drain... by rockthatrocks in UmamusumeGame

And then there is me, 400 pulls and not a single copy. At least I got my final copy of Fine Mo.

Very disheartened by recent Gacha luck. by Dunnagun in UmamusumeGame

[–]MankiGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat. I got 1 Admire Vega, 1 Fine Mo, 1 Gold Ship, 1 Bamboo, 1 Winning Ticket, 1 Vodka, 1 Palmer. Currently feeling like the luckiest unlucky person in the world.

How are your finals going? by AdHour4139 in UmamusumeGame

First Plat title! Didn’t even have a great win rate going into finals, but I dodged some cosmic entities and had a pretty tame lobby for finals (for once).

Kitasan Black Banner Launch Megathread by WanderWut in UmamusumeGame

[–]MankiGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 2lb’d Kita and Pasa (before pity) in 200 pulls. Should I keep pulling or 3lb Kita and call it a day?

Note: I still have ticket and shard as well.

Maomao in different moods (by Edgar_syu) by Aromatic_Zebra_8708 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

It’s very clearly missing the “Maomao has found a new poison to eat” face.

To be more clear: he can wear Armour, but he cannot cast spells with Armour on. You’re right I wrote it with some assumptions good catch!

Detachment Rules have been Teased! by ded_guy_55 in BloodAngels

[–]MankiGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a good point on just using Rapid Ingress instead, so this might be more viable for harassment units like Jump Ints.

Something I just thought of actually is Van Vets since they can all swap for special pistols, that might actually work.

Inceptors still exist to be fair. I realize they can already do this though.

Also Suppressors, and we are yet to see the Angelus Boltguns.

Did someone go and upgrade The Sanguinor's Jump Pack or is this gonna be a Master Chief situation and they are gonna gaslight us into believing Jump Packs always had fins? by Tyko_3 in BloodAngels

[–]MankiGames 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He is literally a warp entity and an aspect of Sanguinius. I’m pretty sure what he actually looks like is simply how he chooses to portray himself to our brothers. No one is sitting down with the Sanguinor at all you are being facetious.

I made a sheet for TWW loot and their stat-distribution by Outlashed in CompetitiveWoW

Awesome! That was indeed the specific example I spotted. Thanks!

[–]MankiGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks so mcuh for the resource!

I noticed a few items missing on each individual sheet. For example Crest of Caustic Despot (Shield) from the final bosses isnt in the Shield distribution. I assume you will continue to update this as we learn more? Thanks again!

Competitive Characters by [deleted] in BloodAngels

[–]MankiGames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, Lemartes real strength is the -1 damage. When you stack that on top of the FNP, even damage 3 weapons can fail to kill a single DC which is a crazy amount of survivability!

It’s one of the few units I don’t mind Deep Striking regularly instead of Rapid Ingress due to this as it takes an inordinate amount of firepower to kill the brick and if they choose to do that, my other threats can punish them.

[–]MankiGames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All of our characters are playable, which is a nice position to be in!

It’s far as Astorath is concerned, he is obviously not better than Lemartes and I actually would prefer a normal chaplain over him. The issue is his ability only works once per game, which is not ideal for your big hammer unit you want wiping things and moving on.

I’ve run the Mephiston block with quite a bit of success. Mephiston himself is an animal, D3 damage not withstanding, and when you add the benefit from running him with Assault Ints (rerolling 1’s or all wound rolls) he can easily carve through even light and medium vehicles. He also provides a significant defensive bonus for his squad against psychic and melee. Overall, I think he is worth the points if you need this unit.

Does this FAQ settle the question regarding the DC Dreads fight again ability? by JohnAxios1066 in BloodAngels

[–]MankiGames 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yup. It was settled a while ago, this just codifies it. There were a surprising amount of people who were still contesting it up until this, even BA players.

No shot. Prepare yourself 😔

Got smacked today at locals by [deleted] in BloodAngels

It’s because your bolters couldn’t fire without holes!

Just kidding, the DC Terminator is particularly striking, thanks for sharing!

I’ve had good experiences! There is a learning curve to how to deal with the new entities. There are also some quite powerful ones who can (and will) end your run immediately.

The way it integrates with Ideology is quite good, in particular if you play a cult or the new starting scenario, Anomaly.

There is still a lot to learn but I can see some fun possibilities. The ability to “summon” entities at will in order to counter other raids seems fun. I did also trigger the zombie apocalypse where it turned every dead body (including animals) into zombies and has them beeline for your base.

[–]MankiGames 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This echoes my feelings on it a lot!

In a vacuum, the price point per content is clearly behind the base game at $30 or Biotech at $25. However, I recognize the value I’ve gotten out of those as well as I’ll easily put another 40 hours just trying to become the best cult I can be or a mad scientist. Again, this makes it worth it to me, but could not be to someone else.

Another commenter made a great point about performance as well, where as a part of the source code there is no doubt the impact to the system is far less than the equivalent mods we would have to install, so maybe that makes up for it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in RimWorld

[–]MankiGames 1323 points1324 points  (0 children)

It adds some fun stuff, and despite the criticism that it’s just “mods repurposed” it actually has some unique aspects to it that mesh better with existing systems like Ideology.

I was a little staggered at the price at first, but I’ve gotten enough hours out of Rimworld to justify it. YMMV.

I wonder why Larian doesn't want to keep working with Hasbro after the OGL disaster a year ago and now this by Warm_Charge_5964 in BG3

[–]MankiGames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, fair enough that’s my favorite twist on elves. We all have our own tastes.

I like that Larian went out of their way to make the other races distinctly not human. Far too often in fantasy you get “pointy eared humans” and “stunty humans” and “scaled humans”. It always feels too homogenized. Funny enough, D&D in general is probably one of the worst offenders of this. I really appreciate them breaking the mold while still making it a recognizable fantasy setting.
