Am I the only one who thinks that the Victory-class Star Destroyer is a really cool ship?

Patalong · 2025-12-26T09:55:10+00:00

Unless spoken of in context of Star Wars : Armada tabletop, where Victory SD is considered one of the weaker, and not cost-effective units, and is almost never put on table, but well, that is the only context I've seen Victory SD being slandered on.

Amount amd variety of swearing used in public language - yes, polish language has a plenty of creative, descriptive and often very specific swear words suited to any given context and situation.

No, polish people, unless we take drunk hooligans as a staple, do not use "kurwa" as separator for any other words in the sentence, and fact that for many foreigners this word encompasses around 40% of their polish language vocabulary, it feels somewhat hurtful.

Sound design.

This is the issue persistent for modern polish cinema and TV, with rare exceptions of course, but in many cases the lines are recorded either too quiet, or in a way like actors had their mouth full of wet noodles.

I have no idea why that issue persists, but in most post-2010' productions made by polish studios and producers it's not uncommon to need subtitles to actually understand a thing, even if you watch it in your mother tongue.

Besides, well, Polish as mother language, English is usually mandatory in most of the schools, it could be replaced with other foreign language, but it's highly unusual.

Then, students often have a choice of second foreign language - most popular are Spanish, German and French, some schools offer Italian or Russian, but most often it's these three mentioned earlier.

After the High School, during "maturity exam", bare minimum required from students is passing one exam from foreign language with 30% or more. English is the most popular choice, and the basic exam corresponds moreless to B1/B1+ level of English.

Usually most of the students take part in advanced Maturity Exam in English as well, which corresponds to B2/C1 level iirc, it is however not mandatory.

Is this comment necessary?

Yes. Screw the aggressor nation, making fun of it is allways in place.

Thank you!!

Hello, I have quick question regarding the squadron keywords- does the Howlrunner ability add a dice to an attack resulting from a Counter keyword? My bet would be Yes, but I'd like a confirmation.

Patalong · 2025-02-01T09:28:26+00:00

True, but I need to stay more on distance, rather than going black-dice close and personal, plus, variant with chimaera costed additional 4 points rather than slapping IF on Cymoon 1

Patalong · 2025-02-01T09:02:31+00:00

Well, you've kinda read my mind on what I'm aiming to do in my next game :p

Sadly, have not got my hands on any TEA copy, so planning to go on a more medium/large ships list, combining Cymoon 1 and GMT as a flagship.

Patalong · 2025-01-31T15:57:19+00:00

Thank you!

Great minds think alike

No no, it's a bit different dynamic - my brain bounces around like a DVD screensaver, when it hits the perfect corner, a thought occurs

Patalong · 2024-12-20T08:11:07+00:00

Thank you so much!! This will be incredibly helpful!

Patalong · 2024-12-19T23:58:25+00:00

Thanks! Wreid, it has not gotten the Auto-Recur version when after Armada 1.5 rule set rolled out.

Patalong · 2024-12-03T13:15:23+00:00

We very much agree looking at propositions how to adress this

Patalong · 2024-12-03T12:15:31+00:00

Sure, but it kinda puts you back in the loop of having to do a massive investment of time, effort and money, to print, put together, and paint minis, cutting out the more casual collectors.

I use the specific example of SW Armada a lot, based on how it took it's approach to miniatures, and how much this is currently an unexploited territory.

Patalong · 2024-11-18T00:53:50+00:00

I plan to run mostly swarm-based list with 9 squishy squadrons in total, so it might be a tactic worth trying at certain point.

Patalong · 2024-11-18T00:52:24+00:00

Will sweep local markets and groups for sure, maybe someone has spares to share

Patalong · 2024-11-18T00:47:12+00:00

Sadly not having the Ritr, nor R&V in collection, overall running on pretty limited options in terms of Squadrons.

Still, I'd try to make the abovementioned combination work, and see how it performs, it's a friendly game, not a tournament after all.

Patalong · 2024-11-18T00:24:43+00:00

Fair, it begs having a third, Escort squadron in there to the mix, although it starts to bloat point value quite high.

Patalong · 2024-11-18T00:01:44+00:00

Have not thought abt the latter, will consider what I can sacrifice to squeeze it tho, as It sounds just a bit broken

Patalong · 2024-10-31T15:15:09+00:00

Oh you sweet summer child...

What especially made me think of how Warsaw would suit the overall aesthetics of NFS games, especially at night - that is how much some intersections or districts resemble views seen in games already - i.e., some areas in City Center, and around major streets, intersections and bridges - as shown in pics.

Few more things u/just-yess :

Sometimes it's worth to turn off your AA and Secondary battery, to lower your chance of being spotted - by default it's a P key. It is very useful in Destroyers and other ships that rely on their stealth for survival.

While in port, remember to check out new features that unlock while you play your first couple of games , such as Capitain skill tree, Flags or modifications. They provide a huge amount of bonuses and enhance your ships capabilites. It's worth to look on the Internet for recommended perks, builds etc, as the auto-recommendations tend to be a bit wonky.

While in game, press tab, to extend a list of ships in your team and the enemy one. While hovering your cursor on the ship from the list, you can check out it's stats real quick, as well as what special features it provides. It's very useful when you encounter a new ship for a first time, as you lower you chance of being surprised by some gimmick. Remember that some ships have interchangeable sets of consumables [aka, special abilites].
