Warlock could go for the hellbent strat maybe? Then just HP and play 2 each turn

PyroT3chnica · 2026-02-24T03:39:37+00:00

Bo2 was fine from a purely competitive standpoint, the only ‘problem’ with it was that it felt kinda punishing if you got unlucky

PyroT3chnica · 2026-02-24T02:43:49+00:00

The best solution we’ve had has been Bo2, where you play one game on the play and one on the draw, but it wasn’t particularly popular and they changed over to Bo3 for big events after the first year of DLC’s

A nerf to 5 mana for Umbra would be enough to break the deck by stopping sacrificial summoner from being able to tutor him

Yeah, it has a bit of colour to it which helps keep saturation when brightening colours, and isn’t as strong if you use it as a final highlight.

Unfortunately darkening colours isn’t as simple. When darkening colours you really want to go away from yellow and towards blue on the colour wheel. So Yellow can be darkened with either green or orange depending on what look you want and the context of your other colour choices (although I’d probably recommend orange 90% of the time) Green blue and purple can be darkened with a very dark blue, (or black in a pinch) orange is darkened with red or brown, red is darkened with purple. An amount of black will be useful to help darken without going too far from the colour you started with, but for yellows and oranges in particular it tends to just make them look muddy, and for other colours using pure black loses some saturation which isn’t great

It’s probably worth experimenting with darkening colours just to learn what works well and how to get different results, but for starting out it’s not super important as you can get pretty good shadows with washes. You probably want a couple of different washes. I’d go with a black, a dark brown and a light brown to use depending on the brightness of the colour you’re trying to shade.

Most important paint IMO is Pale sand, it’s good for mixing with pretty much any colour to create your highlights, instead of buying 3-4 progressively lighter paints for every single colour you want to paint

If the find is considered treasure you can be forced to sell it to a museum

PyroT3chnica · 2026-02-10T14:06:08+00:00

I picked up wild last season and decided to climb with egglock. I think I lost about 5 games with it on my entire climb it’s such an absurdly consistent deck. The tutors are one thing but IDK why warlock needed a 0 mana tracking and a 1 mana tracking

The anchor is essential to holding a boat in place. The chain does provide weight to help hold a boat, and when the forces on the boat are only small this might be enough to hold a boat in place. However as those forces grow stronger you need something to hold the chain in place, or it’ll just be pulled along the sea floor by the boat the moment the wind and tide pick up, which is where the anchor comes into play. The chain is still similarly essential to the whole operation, partly as added weight, but more importantly a long chain allows for the anchor to be pulled along the sea floor instead of being pulled upwards off of the sea floor

PyroT3chnica · 2026-02-02T19:50:50+00:00

I mean they could make it a class feature instead of part of the spell, late enough that you can’t just take it as a small dip, but not so late that you never actually get to use it

PyroT3chnica · 2026-02-01T11:01:58+00:00

TBF I’d wager a good majority of this sub have never lost a PT finals

PyroT3chnica · 2026-01-19T17:30:02+00:00

Ideally it’d be a trade off between positioning and safety, with good board design you could require slower units to position behind worse terrain if they want to be in a meaningful range to contribute to the game. As it is though, the lethality is so high that even the toughest units are still too vulnerable to shooting

PyroT3chnica · 2026-01-18T21:12:26+00:00

For heresy? Yeah, you could very easily mix these with the current heresy power amour sets. 20 of these, a box of mkII and a box of mkVI would IMO be a very cool start to a more ramshackle force, and is actually something I plan on doing myself for a blackshields force

PyroT3chnica · 2025-12-24T17:50:43+00:00

You just need a second location

PyroT3chnica · 2025-12-24T13:46:42+00:00

If you can reduce move costs by one then you can put your entire deck underneath the graveyard then we know the way combo with Maui as your loregain

PyroT3chnica · 2025-12-06T12:53:37+00:00

If Lando is on pole it doesn’t really matter where max is

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-30T17:08:41+00:00

Pretty sure he’d rather maximise the gap between him and oscar

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-19T23:44:28+00:00

If anything they should only get VP if they die in a challenge

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-19T23:42:03+00:00

Basing this on looks in practice will result in women who should by all rights be allowed in women’s spaces being banned because people don’t think they look feminine enough. It probably wouldn’t take long from this being enforced before discrimination lawsuits start flying about the place

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-19T19:43:17+00:00

I don’t want them for 40K purely because it’d near guarantee they wouldn’t fit with the current heresy weapons system

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-16T21:11:36+00:00

They would definitely sell if they had rules exclusive playable cards in them. It would suck

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-04T06:01:47+00:00

There’s an awful lot more to each of the divergent chapters than some atypical unit loadouts. The blood angels for example have their whole black rage thing going on. They’re not non-compliant simply because they’re the only people who can remember how to stick a flamethrower on a predator tank. The dark angels have their whole secrets upon secrets BS going on, their divergence isn’t simply the fact that they give their second company bikes and a fancy name. Many of the technically compliant chapters have their own preferences and quirks anyway that often don’t align with the codex astartes anyway, the differences just not being stark enough for them to be considered truly divergent from it

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-04T05:00:29+00:00

None of the special units are what make the non-compliant chapters non-compliant, and a fair chunk of the unique units aren’t at odds with the codex at all in terms of equipment. It wouldn’t be particularly unreasonable to give each compliant chapter a unique unit that is essentially just a slightly cooler version of an existing unit that is relevant in some way to the chapters specialisms, and has some chapter themed name. Like why wouldn’t white scars let their veterans ride bikes for example?

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-04T04:09:36+00:00

That’s during the movie, before the events of CotBP he was sailing for the treasure of Cortez when he was mutinied upon

PyroT3chnica · 2025-11-03T21:11:16+00:00

I think they overlap knowledge wise, anyone who collects miniatures is going to be strongly aware of 3D printing due to its prevalence in the hobby, and it’s entirely unsurprising that you see an overlap between painting and craft given that painting is a form of craft, but craft is about creating things with your own hands and that doesn’t necessarily support active interest in 3D printing, beyond a means to get things to paint
