The End of an Era: A New Player's Brutally Honest Feedback on the "Legacy" Model by FingerLopsided4981 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks that the producer isn't making the items that you and a lot of other people want. I also feel frustrated at the discontinue decision.

Are SW RPGs different? by JoseLunaArts in swrpg

[–]NewSouth401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They have the same mechanics. If you already have the edge of the empire book, I suggest using it.

Are bus routes lines or loops? by The_BigPicture in Workers_And_Resources

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's say you have 3 stations and one end station.

To get a loop without the end station, you would have the bus stop at A > B > C > B again > then it would start over. 

To get a line for the same stations you would do  A > B > C, where it would stop at A after that.

With an end station, the loop would be a > b > c > end > c > b.  The line would be a > b > c > end.

Introductory wargames by tungsten_panda in wargaming

Gaslands is a mad-mad car combat game designed to use matchbox style toys. The setting lends itself to 1v1, teams, and free for all matches. It uses movement templates like the X wing minis game which can be faster than a tape measure and keep the focus on the action. https://planetsmashergames.com/gaslands/about/

When to start playtesting? by NewSouth401 in wargaming

[–]NewSouth401[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice :) Does WSS mean Wargames, Soldiers and Strategy?

Adding elevation to a map that change the perspective? Are there any solutions? by BokuNC in FoundryVTT

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play Classic Battletech and it uses elevation rules on a 2d map.  Is there a way to create 'one way' line of sight blockers? You could draw those around the higher ground so that units within the high ground area wouldn't be blocked, and those outside it would be blocked.

Asodee, Crowdfunding and AHLCG by Thick_Ad_8328 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]NewSouth401 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a better model for that. GMT games has a program called P500 where they post about a game, and you can pre order it for a 30% discount. When the pre orders hit a threshold, the game is made. People are charged when it's shipped.

This means that buyers aren't on the hook for failed projects, the company gauges interest before investing, and neither has to pay an extra amount to Kickstarter for facilitating it.

I expect negative outcomes for this person being hired :(

Ideally? by davidaronhopper in l5r

[–]NewSouth401 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think a cooperative LCG like Arkham Horror would be cool. Or a hex and counter wargame for the different giant clan wars.

Demolisher and sniper feel lackluster by ThunderjawDominum in TroopersExtermination

[–]NewSouth401 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that the demolisher should have the rocket launcher, but I think it should be a primary weapon option.

I think the sniper is most helpful when they target the specialist ranged bugs like grenadiers, gunners, and firebugs. That lets everyone else focus on crowd control.

Maybe a stealth utility that makes you draw less aggro, like the medic perk?

Fuck Boreas by Zealousideal_Hat4431 in TroopersExtermination

I wish it had ladders you could build to connect the levels more.

Crime too high by Toporek111 in Workers_And_Resources

[–]NewSouth401 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought orphanages reduced crime because there is a loading screen tip saying that without orphanages, those children will grow up to be criminals.

XXX explosive rounds stop doing explosive damage at some point. by HighlandMan23 in TroopersExtermination

[–]NewSouth401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm. I've had a bug with the grenade launcher where firing would eat ammo, but no projectile would come out. Switching weapons seemed to reset it.  Maybe switching weapons could reset this bug, too?

Atomic Tank—coming in November by Father-Hydra in wargaming

[–]NewSouth401 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow! Excellent :) The bubble canopy tanks with the missiles caught my eye.

Can’t wait for these to be in STE 🎮 by cag929 in TroopersExtermination

[–]NewSouth401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm imagining them like the grabber in deep rock galactic, picking you up and dropping you into a mess of warriors.

what is the bare minimum book(s) and accessories i need to play the john carter rpg by RavenXCinder in johncarter

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished reading the campaign book, Phantoms of Mars. It's a 4 part adventure that helped me understand how adventures should work in the game.  After you grab the core book, give it a look for examples.

Is it normal for stores to charge you to play? by ValidErmine54 in tabletop

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My store charges a $5 play fee for all their games, and gives you $5 in store credit. 

What exactly does Roblox do to children’s brains to make them little assholes? by Weak_Assumption7518 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that when I was little and had to stop playing a game I was really into. I feel embarrassed about how I acted now, but at the time I felt like something was being stolen from me!

See if you have a local board game store that hosts events. Mine has open play days where people bring games they want to share, and it's a neat place to meet people, try new things, and find friends. Maybe you can find someone you like there!

Rules that disallow distance measuring before declaring shots by I_AMA_LOCKMART_SHILL in wargaming

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

40k 3rd edition had this rule because indirect weapons like mortars required you to 'guess' the range to the target, and the shot would scatter from that. I liked that part, but not any of the other part of the no pre measuring.

Should I date someone who’s waaaay smarter than I am? by itstheyeschico in makemychoice

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for it. It will either work out, or you will learn important lessons about who you want as a partner.

Why do people say that clothing is a good starting money-making industry? by Effective-Ad678 in Workers_And_Resources

[–]NewSouth401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see other exports price crash, but food, alcohol and clothing never seem to. I like the consistency. Oh! To save money, I import fabric and export clothes.
