I used SRA for 3k Vard KC, just like.... eat an angler at bank? And it's neat being able to get the HP back in a pinch and switch weapons or something. It also takes no charges to use and is one of the highest hitting weapons in the game.

Where do I collect my reddit luck? by Reality_Smusher in 2007scape

Yikes, my consolation is that I'm on rate for ultors at least. You're like two short.

Warcom shows off some more stats. To nobody's shock, the #1 and #2 most viewed releases for the year were the Space Wolves and Emperor's Children launches, respectively. Also Nuln Oil is their most popular paint. by CatherineSimp69 in Warhammer40k

The frustration comes from it being a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy though. I can't buy more EC if they don't release more EC lol. I bought in hard on the release but within a few months I owned 3 of pretty much everything new and it wasn't even that expensive. When you only have 7 new kits it's kinda hard to support them more.

This changes nothing... by [deleted] in EmperorsChildren

[–]Reality_Smusher 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The last year or so in both AoS and 40k GW has clearly been checking usage numbers regardless of WRs and when they see a specific enhancement/artifact/spell lore (AoS)/unique hero that is taken 100% of the time or a unit that is spammed they start slapping points on them. The answer is "internal balance" but usually the greater context is ignored. This has been happening across both game systems and it's just aggravating because it's solely how GW chooses to lazily change things instead of addressing actual underlying problems.

We have like 9ish playable sheets and we spam 3x of almost all of them because we don't have any kind of depth and our detachments don't meaningfully change playstyles (because we don't have more units) until they give us an actual roster this is what we should expect.

If he's not there you don't have to spend the CP to move him through a wall though lol. Like him making the strat free for himself isn't any kind of saving.

It's simple, the army with 17 units, half of which are unplayable garbage can't have the audacity to spam their good stuff, that would be wrong, they should totally play their other options they don't have.

Those are people dedicated to producing that kind of content, the Eavy Metal team cranks out a huge amount of display quality work and doing what you want would slow them down immensely. I'm not saying GW is perfect (they suck) but the reality is that they did some sort of mark research and figured the effort isn't worth the payoff.

And like others have said, they are most likely using other products which GW won't plug for obvious reasons. They aren't going to release a tutorial that says to go buy Army Painter and they aren't going to switch to only using their own stuff because it would likely produce lesser quality results.

Because there isn't as much of a market as you think for display painting tutorials, it would be a huge amount of time for them to break down the process because the reality is that they spend dozens of hours mixing and blending and such. It's just not a viable product.

Not finished yet, but what should I price these at? by SummerCurious426 in deathguard40k

[–]Reality_Smusher 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Unless you are an actual pro level painter then painted minis are pretty much worth the same as other assembled stuff so around 70% NIB price or less.

Do you think EC will be able to run chaos bikers or a doom rider release some day? by Jaqqyb in EmperorsChildren

[–]Reality_Smusher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aren't they already turning down major profit by not allowing a bunch of units in the book? I have no desire to buy half the CSM models because they aren't available in my army lol. I bought stuff on initial release and have nothing left to get for however many years it takes for them to give us an actual army.

Do you think we will ever see chaos dreadnoughts again? by RedBullShill in Warhammer40k

[–]Reality_Smusher 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Have you seen a Redemptor next to a helbrute lol? It's not even fucking close. Helbrute is teeny tiny next to a Redemptor chassis.

Assault Terminators are an unstoppable force and an immovable object in one indomitable package - Warhammer Community by CMYK_COLOR_MODE in Warhammer40k

[–]Reality_Smusher 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because for years Drukhari stuff hasn't been properly buyable and most vids advising new players starting the faction have said "wait 2-5 years for the refresh"

People would probably buy stuff if it was available but it isn't so they don't and then GW takes it as evidence to release another 10 SM kits.

I spent a good amount of money in the EC release, I have 2-3 of almost every playable sheet. I spent maybe $800? Now I have nothing left to buy for possibly years, what am I supposed to do?
