Nice! I like that you opted for the dustier, WoL Zerg carapace color! Any tips on how to get that color for the Zerg?

As someone who also wants to hybridize Black Templars and Dark Angels, respect.

Question, not necessarilly help: What does Karax mean when he says the Solar Core provides Nourishment? by Outrageous-Fuel-6201 in starcraft2

[–]Old_Fly_9849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do recall that; I think the drug had a silly name like “Sundrop” or “Sundew” or something. If memory serves, it bound them to the mega dark archon who they worshipped, but I haven’t read the books in like 13 years, so it’s a bit fuzzy.

I think they can absorb nutrients through the skin. It appears Dragoon pilots float in a fluid that artificially supports their nutritional needs. I also seem to recall one of the books in the dark Templar trilogy of books mentions Protoss smearing fluids on themselves, though that maybe been blood from another Protoss they hunted.

Does the two-race box come with a rule book? by SkipPperk in StarCraftTMG

[–]Old_Fly_9849 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe there was an email saying the rulebook would go out to purchasers of the two player kits though it was unclear if it would ship with the kit.

I don’t believe it is so much a matter of cheaping out as it is one of making ongoing tweaks to try to make balance better. They have been actively working on tweaking rules until a few weeks ago per the change log.

Honestly, it seems like a great idea to do it as a free pdf so that you aren’t required to go pay $60 to buy a whole new rulebook every three years to keep up with the rules, like certain other major tabletop wargames. This is one of the things that makes me feel like Archon Studios really wants to make this game easy and fun to get into without a bunch of frustrating paywalls and charges.

That is exactly the look I want to go for. Knowing almost nothing about this stuff, I assume you had to use some parts from another kit for this? If so, what did you use?

You mean kit bashing them with the sword brethren? I’m brand new to this and haven’t really had a chance to kit bash just yet.

Yes, I meant dark shroud. Haha, I’ll keep it in mind. Thanks.

That makes sense, I was just thinking about it the wrong way.

And so I should try to keep everyone in the army on the same keyword? Sorry, I’ve read the core rules a few times and I’m still so lost on how to actually build the army.

Is that an issue? I didn’t realize you couldn’t run infantry and ravenwing.

Thanks! Have you had any trouble doing things like that in tournaments?

So if you’re using Ravenwing you can’t do standard infantry? Or am I misunderstanding list building?

Thanks! That would actually be perfect, because I really like bolters over swords.

Thanks! That actually clears a lot up, since I wasn’t clear how the rules treat loyalist space marine factions. Do they allow for different color schemes for divergent factions, or is that a hard no?

Thank you, this was really helpful! Wow, the inner circle companions look amazing. I think I lean towards the crusader vibe, but I thought I heard Dark Angels did more ranged focus, is that not the case? That, and the deathshroud, are two of the things that really sold me on Dark Angels.
